During that period of time, most visitors to it must have been amazed by its enormity, and probably by the ancient Egyptian's reverence toward the structure. This limestone covering caused the pyramid to shine brightly in the sun and, even in the evening under moonlight, they were visible from mountains in the south of Egypt as far away as 200 miles (300 km)

The accuracy of Pyramid's workmanship is such that the four sides of the base have a mean error of only 50 mm in length, and 12 seconds in angle from a perfect square. Consequently, except for random casing here and there, and the few remaining casing stones basing each of the four compass points of the structure, ultimately, its outer casing only survived for the rebuilding of Cairo temples, mosques, bridges, and buildings after the earthquake.RJS For four millennia it was the world's tallest structure, unsurpassed until the 160-metre tall spire of Lincoln Cathedral was completed c.1300AD

Schoch has proposed the interesting theory that the rough-cut chamber below the Great Pyramid (the "Pit") is an earlier sacred site, and that the Pyramid was deliberately built above it.

Imagine the Nile and its smaller channels busy with large wooden boats carrying granite from Aswan and limestone from Tura into the Giza harbour, where they were quickly and skilfully made to take their place in the mammoth construction. The dimensions used in the pyramid reveal hidden constants such as number of days in a year, mean distance to the sun, mean radius of the sun, mean radius of the earth, mean radius of the moon and velocity of light

On a twenty-five year construction schedule, (working forty hours per week at fifty weeks per year, using the input of myself to calculate) I would need a crew of 520 people to move blocks from the main quarry to the site and another 100 to move the blocks on site. More impressive than the mechanics of moving huge masses of building material are the logistics involved: choreographing teams of foremen, multitudes of workers, and a profusion of supplies, all within the rigid constraints of a blueprint for design and a timetable for completion

In reality, modern scholars for the most part probably find this pyramid less interesting than many other ancient structures in Egypt, mostly because it is not decorated with reliefs and inscriptions (though parts of its subsidiary structures were), and is otherwise, except for some parts of its internal structure, a fairly typical pyramid complex. By the time the Arabs invaded Egypt during the seventh century, there was little or no religious reverence afforded the structure, so casing stones and other building material from the complex were reused for new building projects in the area of Cairo
