New Study Suggests Water-Powered Hydraulic Lift System Used to Build Pyramid of Djoser
Aug 5, 2024, 11:38 PM
A new study suggests that ancient Egyptians may have used a hydraulic lift system powered by water to build the Pyramid of Djoser, dating back to the 27th century BCE. Researchers propose that this lift system, which has no parallel in our civilization, could have enhanced water purity and regulated flow for practical uses and vital needs. The analysis indicates that sediment-free water could have been used to build the pyramid through a hydraulic elevator system.
