Once again I will be hosting my annual Arts Madness Tournament this Spring. I will be posting daily mini-episodes covering 64 diverse artists and artworks from all around the world and from the prehistoric to the present. While many episodes in season 9 will be encore presentations of pervious episodes as a refresher for the works in the tournament, I will have at least one new episode each week covering topics that have not been covered in previous seasons.
The great pyramids constructed by ancient Egyptians at Giza are the last of the seven wonders of the ancient world still remaining. These massive stone monuments have left people awestruck for thousands of years. True to the distinction as wonders of the ancient world, people have wondered and speculated about how the great pyramids were constructed pretty much as long as they have been around. While some conspiracy theorists like to talk about aliens because they cannot conceive of a world in which ancient people could figure out how to build a pile, I’m going to go out on a limb and say the pyramids were built by people. Archaeologists have found evidence of encampments around the pyramids suggesting that there was a group of skilled craftsmen permanently stationed to work while crews of around 2000 workers would be brought in seasonally.
