About This Episode

Welcome to History's Not Boring! Today, Mira and Finn are traveling 4,500 years back in time to Ancient Egypt! We are visiting the Pyramids of Giza—the greatest and most mysterious building project in history! Imagine building a giant mountain, but each stone weighs as much as two cars! That’s exactly what the ancient Egyptians did when they stacked 2.3 million giant blocks to build just one pyramid.

But here’s the biggest mystery: they didn't have iron tools, cranes, or even wheels! So how did they move these massive, 2.5-ton stones across the desert and stack them up hundreds of feet high? Did they use special mud? Did they slide them up giant ramps? Did aliens help them?!

Join us as we explore the secrets of the Pharaohs and discover the incredibly clever, totally brilliant way the ancient Egyptians pulled off this amazing construction feat. Get ready to be totally amazed by the magic of engineering!
