Abstract
Looking at the Giza Pyramids one wonders that instead of moving the monolithic rocks into perfect position they could have been broken down into giant aggregate and then using the system of tunnels and chambers as flues and fireboxes, created and added throughout the process, slowly heating the larger forms one at a time and carving them to fit in place. Here an intriguing new theory on an ancient puzzle.
