A phenomenal way to learn about Pyramids!

Did you ever wonder how were the Great Pyramids built? Were they built top down, or bottom up? Inside out, or Outside first? How did they manage to move tons of building material to the right place in those times? Did the Egyptians have the kind of engineering and architectural knowledge to make these astounding structures?

I came across this great site that beautifully tries to answer these questions using 3D graphics. The theory is by Jean-Pierre Houdin, and I believe a student will definitely learn more from this than a history textbook.

You can view the complete video and read about it here...
