The Forgotten Builders of the Pyramids | History's Silent Hands

For thousands of years, the Great Pyramids of Egypt have stood in silence.
We remember the kings — Khufu, Khafre, Menkaure — their names echo through history.
But the people who placed every stone, hauled every block, and labored under the scorching sun… are forgotten.

They weren’t slaves.
For centuries, we were told they were whipped, chained, and forced to work.
But modern archaeology paints a very different picture — one of skilled laborers, engineers, craftsmen, and farmers… working in organized teams with purpose, pride, and even pay.

In this video, we explore: – The myths and truths behind pyramid construction
– The daily life inside “Workers’ City”
– What skeletal remains reveal about health, strength, and medical care
– How their faith shaped their work and their burials
– Why history erased their names… but couldn’t erase their legacy

These people didn’t rule history — they built it.
And maybe, just maybe, they knew that was enough.
