Meer oor hierdie e-boek

Egyptian Obelisks Transport explores the remarkable engineering feats behind the creation of ancient Egyptian obelisks. These monolithic monuments, some weighing hundreds of tons, were quarried, transported, and erected using techniques that continue to fascinate historians and engineers alike. The book uncovers how the ancient Egyptians mastered quarrying techniques without modern machinery, including the use of dolerite tools to extract stone. It further investigates the sophisticated transportation methods employed to move these colossal structures across land and water, revealing the organizational prowess required for such massive undertakings.

The book’s approach is structured, beginning with an introduction to obelisks within Egyptian architecture and religion. It then details quarrying operations, followed by an analysis of transportation logistics, erection techniques, and finally, an examination of the symbolism of obelisks. By examining archaeological evidence, historical texts, and recent experimental findings, the book highlights the religious and political significance of obelisks, emphasizing their connection to pharaonic power and their lasting impact on the Egyptian landscape.

The successful construction of obelisks reflects the advanced nature of ancient Egyptian civilization and their sophisticated understanding of engineering principles.
