Decoding the Great Pyramid / a Nova production by Blink Films for WGBH/Boston ; directed by Tom Fowlie ; written by Michael Douglas ; produced by Michael Douglas, Melanie Gerry.
How did the Egyptians engineer the Great Pyramid of Giza so precisely, and who were the thousands of laborers who raised the stones? New archaeological evidence, including a logbook of a labor team leader, provides new insights into these age-old questions. NOVA delves into these construction secrets to trace how mobilizing labor and resources on such a massive scale transformed ancient Egypt.
