The Ancient Egypt and its pyramids are one of the greatest secrets in the World, the scientist still have much to analyse before drawing some conclusions about those ancient times.
Personally, I always had interest to know more about any of the ancient cultures, but as of the scarce evidence left to us now, everything is based on speculation and fragmented occurrences.

I was wondering why they build this structures, something is odd about this civilizations.
The hole culture of those times is just, a little bit off. I mean we were thought a completely different things in the school books, then it is evident from the latest discoveries that it is not so.
These were not some limited, small minded 'starter' cultures with no knowledge about the world and technology.
The materials which they used, how they used them, techniques in the building ... nothing fits in.
At first we were thought that the slaves were the engine who dragged up the whole construction, but in the latest thing out, it turns out that only the masons were included in the construction, slaves were actually a working flock in the production of the food and similar, unrelated simple jobs.
Where and how the pyramids were constructed is just mind blowing.
Forget what you learned in High School in your geography class regarding the Egyptian Pyramids. What did you and I learn in High School? Pyramids were built for the pharos (kings & queen) by using slaves, copper tools, and pulleys that helped drag these 10-30 tons granite and limestone rocks. (In Japan they did an experiment to do just that, and even 100 people couldn’t pull a ten ton block more than twenty feet, before they all gave out. (Video is on youtube) Neither did any archeologist found any kind of tomb, body or mummy inside the pyramids, including any hieroglyphic drawings. This is what I thought up until I was 27-28, when I saw a documentary on Youtube regarding the pyramids, and my mind was finally open. The documentary didn’t make me a believer; it only made me a skeptic of how and when the pyramids were built? I didn’t take the first documentary as my holy grail. I wanted to find similar evidence before believing in the finite truth.
History has taught us that Pyramid of Giza was built 5,000 years ago. They also told us how the pyramids were aligned with the Orion star, and everything in the Luxor area was based on astrology and the stars. Even the King Khufu’s head on top of a lion’s body is also an astro-symbolic gesture to the stars. But, if everything was done according to the stars alignments, then building King Khufu’s head on a lion’s body is completely out of sync. If you look directly from the line-of-sight from Khufu’s face, the constellation of Scorpio was rising between 7-5 thousand years ago, but, if you go back 15-25 thousand years ago, the constellation of Leo was rising from the same spot. Knowing clearly well how mathematically precise and accurate Egyptians really where, building a symbol of lion in the age of Scorpio would not had made scene for them. This is just a small analysis of thousands of analogies regarding the timeline of Egyptian history. The Mayan pyramids, too, were build in the exact same time period from carbon dating. This subject is another article on its own.
I can not agree more, this all taken in consideration, there is definitely more than meats the eye.
now, this times we need to research to know little from what happened.
