Introduction to the unsolved mysteries of the Egyptian pyramids
There are too many unknowns about the pyramids. Here, 12 of the more concerning unsolved mysteries are listed for discussion and research by fans of unsolved mysteries. They are respectively the exploration of the ancient ruins of Tula, the close connection of the cast stones, the Sphinx, the secrets of architecture, the preservation of animals and plants for thousands of years after death, the 200th person who fell to death, the wonderful functions and others, and the secrets of the pyramids. The angle of elevation, the mystery shrouded in tombs, secret passages and intact ships, the pyramids under Bermuda, the behemoths of America. [1]
On the banks of the Nile River in the ancient African country of Egypt, in the vast desert on the outskirts of Cairo, stands a group of huge square cone-shaped buildings. This is the first of the world-famous eight wonders of the ancient world. of —Egyptian pyramids. It is majestic and has gone through vicissitudes of life. It has a history of four or five thousand years. It is also a symbol of the high civilization of ancient Egypt and a witness to the distant history of mankind.
The shape of the pyramid is very similar to the Chinese character "gold", so it is called "pyramid" in China. In Europe, it is called "Pyramis", which means "high" in ancient Egyptian. It can be seen that tallness is the characteristic of the pyramid.
The Egyptian pyramids are the tombs of slave-owning emperors. The king was extravagant and lustful during his lifetime, and he still wanted to dominate the world after his death. Therefore, during his lifetime, he spared no effort to build himself a so-called "permanent and solid residence" - the pyramid. The emperor hoped to preserve his bones and dignity forever, so he began to build pyramids from the Third Dynasty of Egypt. Around 2800-2300 BC, that was the era when pyramids were prevalent.
There are more than 70 large and small pyramids in Egypt. The first one was the step pyramid of King Djeser of the Third Dynasty of Egypt. The later pyramid pyramids were developed and evolved on this basis. Among them are the two pyramids of Khufu and Khafre, located near the city of Giza on the outskirts of Cairo. Listed as the first of the eight wonders of the ancient world, these two pyramids, together with the Sphinx showing the majesty of the king, have become a symbol of the scenery of the Egyptian pyramids.
The Pyramid of Khufu is the largest, so it is also called the "Great Pyramid". It is 146.5 meters tall, rising from the ground like a 40-story building. Before the construction of the Eiffel Tower (312.5 meters) in Paris in 1889, the Pyramid of Khufu was the tallest building in the world. The tower covers an area of ??80 acres, with a side length of more than 2,300 meters and a circumference of about 1 kilometer.
The entire tower is made of more than 2.3 million large and small boulders, with a total volume of 2.5 million cubic meters.
The stones weigh 2.5 tons, and the heaviest one weighs about 160 tons. There is no adhesion between the stones, but there is no gap between the stones. It is amazing! The tower. There are paved roads, stone steps, ventilation passages and tombs. The chamber is divided into three floors. It is 30 meters underground in the middle of the tower. There is a r0-floor room above the chamber with a triangular roof. The wonder of the pyramid architecture is still a mystery. Some people think that such a magnificent building was built by aliens. But after all, the pyramid is majestic and majestic on the earth and has become an immortal monument in human history. It tells people how the slaves of ancient Egypt used their hands and simple tools to create this amazing miracle in an era without gunpowder and machinery.
The pyramids are still regarded as wonders of the world. The blue sky has become a world-famous tourist attraction. Moreover, the pyramid is a huge treasure house for people to explore the cultural relics of ancient Egypt 5,000 years ago.
Exploration of the ancient ruins of Tula. The famous capital of Tula is an escape mountain city extending from the Valley of Mexico to the Yucatan region. It is located in the state of Hidalgo, 55 miles away from Mexico City. This ancient capital has a spectacular pyramid, which is puzzlingly high. Rows of giant statues with majestic expressions stand on top of the high pyramid. Are these stern warrior statues standing guard to protect human peace? Or are they waiting for the arrival of the "gods"?
The ancient city of Tula. Built in 900 AD, the Toltecs lived here, and these statues were preserved as part of the Toltec era culture until the city was destroyed in 1191 AD. , the Toltecs were a tall and good running race, they created a game similar to today's football
Tula - the ruins of the ancient city, the majestic temples and magical statues. Despite the vicissitudes of life, the 8-meter-tall stone giant warriors still stand majestically, overlooking the changes in the human world. Tula - the amazing ancient city. We have to explore the ruins carefully. In that remote mountain city, the conditions are very primitive and backward. How could such a magnificent pyramid be built, and how could a huge boulder weighing dozens of tons be transported to the high pyramid peak. , and carved into statues, why the scale and form of its buildings are similar to the monuments in many places, etc. These unsolved mysteries have posed another problem for today's scientists.
The close connection of the cast stones
The mystery of the construction of the Egyptian pyramids has recently received a new explanation: this is chemist Din David Daweit of the University of Bari in the United States, who pointed out that the pyramid stones were formed by artificially cast blocks, just like It's like pouring concrete today. He said: By mixing crushed limestone slurry and mineral binder and injecting it into a large mold, strip stones can be cast.
This explanation can eliminate the explanation of why the pyramid stones contain bubbles but the stones in nature do not. It also eliminates the long-standing and controversial mystery. However, in 2600 BC, it was possible to use casting methods to make strips of stone, and they were so closely connected that even a piece of paper could not be inserted in. Such superb technology would have required a lot of effort to produce with the modern science and technology of the 1980s. Only careful and precise calculations can achieve this. However, it is really puzzling that it could reach such an extent in 2600 BC.
The Sphinx
The Sphinx next to the world-famous Egyptian pyramids is probably also known to the world. However, why the ancient Egyptians built this stone statue next to the pyramid remains a mystery.
The Sphinx was built 4,500 years ago and is one of the oldest ancient large stone statues in the world. It was carved from the rock in the quarry where the pyramid was built. It is 73.5 meters long and 2 meters high. meters, and the width of the face reaches 4 meters. The face is shaped like that of a pharaoh, wearing a king's turban, and the cobra, the king's symbol, is carved on the forehead. There was originally a 2.5-meter-long beard on the chin of the statue, but it was unknown when it was destroyed. The body is in the shape of a lion, the king of beasts.
At present, due to long-term wind and sand attack, only the head of the statue is still exposed outside the sand and gravel, and the rest is completely buried in the sand and gravel. Therefore, the body part of the stone statue is well preserved; while the head has been damaged by erosion, weathering and man-made damage.
The Sphinx appeared in Greek mythology in ancient times. Similar sculptures can still be seen on some ancient buildings, tombstones and shields in Greece. It is said that it was used to suppress evil spirits. Statues such as the Sphinx have different shapes due to different eras and regions, but they may all be built for the same purpose. However, some people speculate that the purpose of the Sphinx built next to the Egyptian pyramids is to reflect the majesty of the supreme ruler. Because the head's face resembles that of a pharaoh (king). However, some dissent. What is the purpose of building the Sphinx in Egypt still needs further research.
The pyramid located next to the Sphinx towers over the ancient Egyptian city with its majestic majesty. To build it, 4,500 years ago, the Egyptian king mobilized more than 100,000 people and spent more than 30 years. The pyramid was built from 2.3 million to 250 stones with an average weight of 2.5 tons. It would be difficult to complete such a huge project without large-scale machinery and modern science and technology. However, pyramids were built one after another during that era. This is both a fact and an unsolved mystery.
The Secret of Architecture
The 9th century AD was the heyday of Hari ibn Harun al-Rashid. At that time, it was said that countless gold and silver treasures were hidden in the great pyramid of Hufu. In response, some greedy adventurers salivated and took great pains to finally find the entrance to the tower. They burned the stone door at the entrance and poured vinegar on the hot stone door. After many twists and turns, the stone door finally collapsed. But there are still huge rocks erected on the road inside the entrance, making people wonder how to get out of the maze and find the treasures.
Helier believes that there are 7 halls in the Pyramid of Khufu. It is not a large tomb where the pharaoh is buried, but a tower of science. It has an unattainable level of mathematics and geometry.
The knowledge of the pyramids is secret. The ancients often placed secrets in concrete images with symbolic meaning. If you want to understand these secrets, you must study and study them carefully. But there are still some mysteries about the pyramids that remain unsolved to this day. The Great Pyramid of Hufu faces the four directions of east, west, south and north, and its top is 52. Cone angle. So there is a certain reason why this angle shape was built. If we are interested, we can do an experiment. First, take a certain amount of sand and slowly pour it on the ground from top to bottom. A cone-shaped pile of sand will be formed. After it is fixed, we will know by measuring it that it is exactly 520 cones. horn. People call this angle "the limit angle or stable angle of natural collapse phenomenon", and the pyramid was built at this angle. Therefore, its top is strong and will never collapse, and it will not have a major impact even in earthquakes. It seems that the pyramid is in the center of the magnetic field lines. It moves with the movement of the magnetic field lines and also moves with the movement of the earth. Therefore, the vibration amplitude is extremely small. This may be the reason why the pyramid has gone through many vicissitudes but remains as stable as Mount Tai.
Animals and plants do not decay for thousands of years after death
Pyramids are used to preserve materials that are easily decomposed, and these materials are preserved very well. Therefore, the Pharaoh chose the pyramid to preserve the body in order to prevent it from decaying.
Helier once conducted an experiment in which he placed some bean seeds and sugar in the tomb of the pyramid. After a while, he planted the bean seeds that had been put into the tower together with the bean seeds that had not been put into the pyramid in the same field. After the seedlings emerged, it was found that the seedlings placed in the tower were four times longer than the seedlings not placed in the tower, and the leaves were also wider and the sugar was different. When ants found ordinary white sugar, they would immediately crawl over to eat it, but when they encountered ordinary white sugar, they would immediately crawl over to eat it. of sugar, but cautiously avoided it and escaped; an ancient brown fruit was found in the ancient site of the "God of Wisdom and Magic" in Egypt, which is no different from the new fruit. Some of the unearthed grass placed in wooden barrels is still very Emerald green; what is even more peculiar is that some of the flowers excavated are still brightly colored.
What is the reason why these flowers remain so delicious after 4,000 years? To this, Hellier thinks there may be two answers: one is to put these things into chemicals that are clean, sterilizing and non-decomposing; the other is They create a kind of radiation called "cosmic waves" that make matter permanent.
Scientists are conducting such preservative experiments on plants, fruits, and meat. If successful, it will be of great benefit to people.
According to Hellier's inference, the Pyramid of Khufu must have been built on the main axis. It is not difficult for people to imagine how many rare treasures there would be in that mysterious tomb. Although it may take a long time to discover them, the mystery of the pyramids will eventually be revealed by humans.
The 200th person who fell to death
As soon as I heard the ancient and attractive name of the Egyptian Pyramids, it attracted many tourists. Many brave warriors have come to the tower and want to try climbing to the top of the pyramid, but so far no one has been able to do so. On a sunny day in 1989, a British tour group included a young man named Peter. He was so heroic that without anyone noticing, he quietly climbed up a cliff from the west sloping wall along the stone gap. A 500-foot-tall pyramid. When he climbed about one-third of the way to the top of the tower, Peter turned to the tourists and guides below and shouted: "Look! I'm about to climb to the top of the tower!" At this time, the tour guide in charge of leading the group, O. Wen immediately warned Peter loudly, who was still crawling on the tower: "The pyramid cannot be climbed! Come down quickly!" But he continued to climb towards the top of the tower. About two hours later, Peter finally climbed to the top of the tower, and the onlookers were particularly surprised. At this time, some police cars and Red Cross vehicles also rushed to the scene after hearing the news. He supported him there for about 10 minutes. As a result, he fell straight from the top of the tower and died on the spot. The people who gathered to watch under the tower shouted, "That's so horrible! It's so horrible!" Brenda, a female tourist who witnessed the tragedy, shouted in panic. Police Captain Xia Di, who was the first to run to the deceased Peter, said: "I don't know what happened. He rolled down like a log!"
After the body verification, the report Point out: Before Peter's body fell to the ground, he had died of a serious head injury; almost every bone in his body was broken, and his appearance was unrecognizable due to the blur of flesh and blood.
According to local police records: Since 1940, all 200 people who have climbed the Shwedagon Pagoda ended up falling to death, including Peter.
It is a great mystery of the pyramid that no one came back alive after climbing to the top. ”
Wonderful functions and others
The Egyptian pyramids show all kinds of magic: if you have a toothache, just take a nap in the pyramid-shaped building and the pain will stop; vegetables Putting fruits and meat in a pyramid-shaped structure can last for a long time without deterioration, and keep the fresh color. Putting coffee in a pyramid-shaped structure will taste much better than ordinary coffee after 24 hours of storage. Facts make people think that the pyramid must have an invisible energy. What is this invisible energy? Researchers call it "pyramid energy". The current research on "pyramid energy" has just begun.
Pyramid. There are many wonderful and unexplainable phenomena: the height of the Great Pyramid of Kufu multiplied by 10 is equal to the distance between the earth and the sun; twice the height of the tower, divided by the area of ????the base of the tower, is equal to 3.14159... which is exactly the same as pi The numbers are the same; the self-weight of the tower multiplied by 10E15 is exactly equal to the weight of the earth; the position of the earth's poles changes every day, and it returns to its original position after 25827 years, and the sum of the diagonals at the bottom of the pyramid is 25826. 6; the pyramid is placed. The internal dimensions of the Pharaoh's coffin are exactly the dimensions of the coordinate triangle of the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras, namely 2:5.3 and 3:4:5. When the pyramid was built, it was estimated that there must have been at least 5,000 Egyptian residents. Ten thousand people. It is estimated that at the time when the tower was built 5,000 years ago, the population of the entire world was only 2 million. If the population of Egypt was 5 million when the tower was built, Egypt at that time could not provide food for that many people. The problem has not been satisfactorily explained so far.
What’s more, a pyramid built earlier than Egypt was discovered on the ocean floor of the “Bermuda Triangle”. From this point of view, The pyramid remains a mystery.
The angle of elevation of the pyramid
Long debated and surprising is the angle of elevation in pyramid construction. Pi 2 was used because the height of the pyramid is related to the circumference of the base. The ratio of length is exactly 1/2π. Many pyramids use the special elevation angle of 51°52'. However, the facts in a large number of ancient documents and ancient cultural relics show that the Egyptians still had very poor concepts of pi and angles at that time. They were confused and couldn't figure out what was going on, so people speculated that aliens helped the Egyptians build the pyramids.
American electronic engineer Connolly believed that the pyramids were measured with a cubit (wrist ruler). (Child: the length from a man's elbow to the tip of his middle finger is uniformly 52 cm). The base line of the pyramid is measured by the circumference of a barrel with a diameter of cubit. In this way, the ancient Egyptians used pi unintentionally when building the pyramids.
If the length from the height of the pyramid to the bottom center to the bottom edge is 4:1, then the height ÷ the perimeter of the bottom "(4 xnxc) ÷(8 xcx:r x n) = 1/2π, (c Two cubits, n two cubits) 1/2 This ratio that has long puzzled scholars may arise from this.
If the pyramid uses this 4:1 ratio. ratio, then its elevation angle must be 51052'. This angle was so correct, but it was almost unusable at the time. However, the clever ancient Egyptians used it to build a building that shocked the world.
The mystery shrouded in the tomb
The pyramid is the tomb of the king (Pharaoh), and it is also the place where the king hopes to preserve his body and dignity forever. The secrets in the pyramid have a history of 5,000 years. It attracts the fascination of many curious warriors and exploring archaeologists. Many of them broke into the tomb despite the incantation engraved on the tombstone of Pharaoh Kufu, but they all died. It is said that in August 1796, Napoleon was on an expedition to Egypt. Ambitiously entered the pyramid tomb alone. When he came out, people saw him speechless, his face turned pale, and he died 25 years ago. A few years ago, dozens of schoolchildren who entered the tomb were also like him. In 1962, Dr. Iseddine Taya, a Cairo university student with a Ph.D. in Physics, discovered that many people died from infection with Aspergillus. However, further research under an electron microscope revealed that this bacterium was not the cause of death. The final answer to the mystery of the Pharaoh's spell. Because many people who died after entering the tomb had no signs of being infected with the bacteria.
Researchers have proposed new reasons for the deaths after entering the pyramid tomb. Insights: Do you think the shape of the pyramid attracts and concentrates cosmic rays, magnetic oscillations or other unknown energy waves? Does it have a capacitor or lens concentration effect on certain energy sources? That is why it kills people, but there is no definite answer so far. The mysterious veil shrouded in the pyramid has attracted close attention and in-depth research by Chinese and foreign scholars and archaeologists.
The secret passage and the complete ship
The pyramid in the tomb of the Egyptian king, as well as the burial site. In May 1986, due to cracks inside the Dajinyu Pagoda, many experts rushed to the site for on-site inspections. It was found that there were some caves inside the pyramid, and the stones were in different directions, vertically and horizontally. So they proposed that the tomb of King Khufu, which was opened more than 1,000 years ago and is now visited by tourists, may not be real, and it is speculated that there may be another one. There is a passage leading to the real tomb. The Japanese expedition team used advanced electromagnetic detectors to conduct a detailed inspection of the "internal organs" of the pyramid and reported: The scan showed that there were no new discoveries in the caves under the pyramid, but it confirmed that the pyramid was There is at least one secret passage under the tower, and there is also a complete ship buried outside the tower. What does this mean? This is another unsolved mystery.
The Pyramids under Bermuda
The pyramids in Egypt and Africa are well known to the world, and the pyramids in the Americas, Mexico, Peru, Honduras and other places are also known to the world. These are pyramids built on the ground, which is obvious to people. But little is known about the pyramids that are difficult to see under the sea.
It is reported that there is a large pyramid on the seabed in the Bermuda Triangle, which was discovered by Captain Henry of the US Navy. Although many people still don't believe it, it is clearly shown on the sonar detector. This submarine pyramid is located 360 meters below the sea level. The tower is 230 meters high and the base of the tower is 100 meters long. The tower is surrounded by a flat seabed. In this regard, the relevant parties set up an expedition team to conduct detection in the area, using deep-water submarines, underwater closed-circuit television cameras and other equipment, in the hope of detecting the authenticity of the submarine pyramids. Once the submarine pyramid does exist and is a man-made masterpiece, the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle will be solved, then the history of world science will be revised, and even human history will have to be rewritten. But not many people still believe this is true, because it is impossible to build such a huge pyramid on the seabed below 360 meters with the capabilities of modern science and technology. Besides, there is no need to build such a huge thing on the seabed!
However, some scientists believe that human beings originated from the sea. According to the theory of human evolution, human beings initially lived in the sea, and later divided into two branches: water and land. According to on-the-spot investigations by foreign underwater investigators, they have encountered furry humanoid intelligent animals that can swim extremely fast on the seabed and can build large buildings. According to Swiss scholar Erich Danronken, there is no doubt that the large pyramids on the seabed were built with the help of "aliens". However, it's not so much aliens as it is the undersea people who helped build it.
In recent years, many strange buildings have been discovered around the world, such as the huge stone fences in Europe, the mysterious African stone forest, the underwater buildings in Bimile, the large stone sculptures on Easter Island, etc. These are located very close to the coast or on islands, or even under the sea. From these strange architectural legends, we can learn that their builders, participants, and instructors almost all came from the ocean, or disappeared in the ocean when they returned.
Not long ago, a Soviet spacecraft accidentally encountered an "alien" flying saucer. Its "alien" presents a map of the galaxy for navigation.
The picture turns out to be exactly the same as ours, a picture of the solar system. Moreover, the appearance, body shape, length and height of the "alien" are similar to those of people in today's society, except that their eyes are slightly larger. This point can be explained: "Aliens live in the same solar system as us. After scientific analysis, the only members of the solar system with similar ecological conditions to the earth are Venus and Mars. The appearance of the "aliens" we have seen is similar to that of Venus and Mars. We are almost the same, so it means that their living environment is basically the same as ours, and only those who live on the same planet can do this. "Aliens" have larger eyes. It can be inferred that the place where they live has poor lighting and poor surrounding environment. It is relatively dark, which means that the place where they live is probably underwater. This shape is very convenient for swimming up and down in the sea.
Everything shows that there may be a group of humans living under the sea. They helped people on land build pyramids, giant stone sculptures and patterns. Therefore, it is entirely possible that the pyramids under the sea in the Bermuda Triangle were built by humans under the sea, especially from the underwater pyramids and Africa. , the pyramids seen in America are exactly the same. This is both a new view and a new mystery, which is waiting for the scientific community to reveal it.
The giant group of animals in the Americas
When people mention pyramids, they immediately think of Egypt. Did you know that there are also huge pyramids in Latin America? Pyramids in the Americas are widely distributed, but they are mainly concentrated near Mexico City, the capital of Mexico, and in the Yucatan Peninsula in eastern Mexico. Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras are adjacent to each other. Among them, the 8 pyramids in Icuilco are the most famous.
People lived here from the 7th century BC to the 15th century AD. No less than 100,000 large and small pyramids were built one after another. They are large in scale, majestic, unique in style, and exquisite in elegance. They are comparable to the Egyptian pyramids in terms of scale and artistic architecture. Archaeologists have found part of the answer to so many behemoths after long-term research, but some are still mysteries today.
An 8-meter-thick one in Icuilco, south of Mexico City. The earliest pyramid in the Americas was unearthed under the volcanic lava. According to carbon-14 dating, it was 250 years ago. The tower is composed of four overlapping truncated cones of different sizes, with a diameter of 135 meters at the bottom. The diameter is 70 meters and the height is 20 meters. There is a temple on the top of the tower, and only some ruins remain. In Tio Dijuagan, northeast of Mexico City, this was a prosperous city from the 1st to the 8th century AD. It is used to worship the sky. There are hundreds of steps leading to the top of the tower. The tower is 64.46 meters high and is called the Pyramid of the Sun. Whenever worshiping the sky, a large number of slaves have to pass through a 55-meter-wide path. The 2.5-kilometer-long avenue, the Avenue of Death, leads up to the Pyramid. At the northern end of the Avenue of Death, there is a 43-meter-high Pyramid of the Moon called the Pyramid of the Moon. But it looks more exquisite and elegant.
There is the largest pyramid in the world 90 kilometers east of Mexico City. It was built in 5 times, each time expanding. When it was first built, the tower had 5 floors, 18 meters high, and a base of 113 x 107 (meters). During the fifth construction, it had been expanded to 9 floors, 64 meters high, and 350 meters long at each base. The total volume ratio is known as the world's largest. The first Pyramid of Khufu in Egypt is 15% larger.
Balinkan, on the border between Mexico and Guatemala, was a prosperous city before the 9th century. In 1952, Mexican archaeologists discovered a vaulted tomb in a pyramid known as the "Temple of the Imprint." There is a sarcophagus in the center of the tomb, which is covered with a large, exquisitely carved stone slab with hieroglyphic inscriptions engraved on it. It can be seen from this that the deceased in the coffin is 1.8 meters long. He is a male, the high priest Pakal, who died in 673 AD. A jade mask and about 1,000 jewels were found from the coffin. This is the first American pyramid with a tomb discovered, which greatly enriches people's understanding of the American pyramids.
The city of Tikal in northern Guatemala is one of the pyramid centers in America. There are 5 large pyramids in existence. The tallest one has 9 floors and is 70 meters high. Together with the 14-meter-high temple at the top of the tower, it ranks first among the American pyramids.
In the town of Copan in western Honduras, the steps of a pyramid here are decorated with more than 2,500 hieroglyphics and a large number of carvings of human bodies, animals, and plants. This is very important in art and archaeology. Great value.
Many scientists now believe that the American pyramids were built by several different peoples. When they worshiped or worshiped the gods of heaven, rain, sun, and moon, they always climbed mountains. Later, when they migrated to plain areas, they built artificial mounds and high platforms to worship the gods. Therefore, they built pyramids. The Olmecs were the first to use bricks to build a 36-meter-high pyramid. For example, the Pyramid of Luchola was built by them. After the 4th century BC, the following pyramids were built by the Olmecs: Tio Dihuagan, Ma The three major ethnic groups, Yaya and Zapotik, lasted for more than 1,000 years.
According to archaeological research, before the 9th century AD, residents living in the Americas did not have metal tools, and the construction of the pyramids relied entirely on manpower. To build a large pyramid requires tens of thousands of people to work continuously for several years, even ten or even decades.
In ancient times, the total population from Mexico to Central America was only a few million. How could it be possible to build so many huge pyramids? This is still a way to go. The Olmec, Teotihuagan, Maya and other nations that once created the magnificent pyramid civilization all disappeared one after another. Why this happened is another unsolved mystery.
After extensive research by historians, there are several possibilities: depletion of soil, disaster, slave escape... The cruelty of slave owners in ancient Central America was astonishing. Therefore, the majority of slaves struggled on the verge of death all year round; most of the heavy labor required to build the pyramids involved the horrific sacrifices of human sacrifices on the pyramids. It is said that when using human sacrifices, the person is knocked unconscious on the top of the tower, and then the human heart is carved out with a sharp knife and presented to the altar. Then, the body of the killed person is rolled down from the platform. According to historical records, in 1487, the Aztecs celebrated the completion of the Huezillo Botelli Pyramid and killed 20,000 people in four days. It was really unbelievable that there were rivers of blood and mountains of corpses. 1 The cruel oppression and persecution caused slaves to flee or rebel in large numbers; natural disasters, diseases, and depletion of soil caused a large number of people to die or migrate to other places. For example, in the 9th century AD, less than a hundred years ago, the Maya population dropped from 3 million to 450,000. Therefore, the pyramid civilization, which was once very prosperous, may have died quickly. However, to finally unravel the mysteries of the American pyramids, historians and archaeologists still need to continue their efforts to investigate. Only by reading the mysterious symbols-hieroglyphs on the pyramids can we clarify the historical facts recorded on them. .
