How Was the Great Pyramid of Giza Actually Built?

How was the Great Pyramid of Giza actually built — and who really built it? Using real archaeological evidence — the Diary of Merer, the Heit el-Ghurab workers' town, and the 2017 muon-scan discovery of a hidden void — we reconstruct the engineering behind the last standing wonder of the ancient world, and explain the leading theories where the full answer still isn't settled. No aliens. Not slaves. Not poured concrete. Just the largest coordinated construction project in the ancient world, built by a paid, organized Egyptian workforce — here's the construction theory debate, the evidence, and what's still genuinely unknown.

Debated points (like the ramp method and the 2017 hidden void) are presented as open questions, not settled fact. Corrections, if any are found after publishing, will be pinned here.
