CONCLUSION
This scientific, technical and operative research - starting from the details of the tools and of the manoeuvre - is developing through an interactive and predicative model to offer a referential building system of use which generates both the concept and the form.
This research is coming from the fundamental, even vernacular, area of the Art of building, and because of this, constitutes an objective contribution to Egyptology and Archaeology, is also able to understand and to integrate a theoretical, practical and manual knowledge.
This research imposes itself to the whole of theories formulated so far, it offers a new apprehension-comprehension of the different building systems of the pyramids in their evolution, it opens onto the observance of a “technical continuum” in the Art of building and runs alongside the universal.
It corroborates and explains completely Herodotus' writings, the debate on the way the pyramids were built finds itself revived, made richer, and objectified through a generalist and synthetic view of the knowledge that falls under the Sciences of the earth, the engineering of construction work, the Art of building and the skills of trades.
If Cheops' pyramid looses a little bit of its “mystery”, it gains a lot of “genius”.
