Who Built the Egyptian Pyramids? Merer’s Journal Reveals the Evidence Who built the Egyptian pyramids—and what does Merer’s journal reveal about the Great Pyramid of Giza? Follow the archaeological evidence behind Khufu’s workforce, the Giza workers’ settlement, food and supply systems, stone transportation, sledges, ramps, tools, surveying, and the enormous organization required to construct Egypt’s pyramids.

It offers a rare firsthand window into the routes, people, and administration behind one of history’s greatest engineering achievements.
