This construction material was made by 2.3 million blocks of limestone, and using ropes and slaves  was dragged through long system of canals yards away from the port to the pyramid.

Using 3D laser technology the leading scientist in this area managed to reproduce the construction process of the Khufu boat. As reported by the archeologist Mark Lehner underneath the Great Pyramid was discovered a centuries-old waterway used for the same purpose.

“We’ve outlined the central canal basin, which we think was the primary delivery area to the foot of the Giza Plateau,” as he reported.
