Construction of the pyramids. There are many theories about the construction of the pyramids, but the most well-founded is the one based on the writings of Herodotus. According to the historian, the pyramid consisted of several heights in which pulleys were placed, so that once the stone reached one of these heights, the pulley lifted it to the next, and so on. However, since there were no similar tools at that time, this hypothesis was soon discarded, although it served to develop other theories that are more convincing today. Of all the blocks, the external ones, that is to say, the visible ones, were tried to fit together so that the construction seemed perfect, while the internal ones were loosened and then the hollows were filled with mud and stone. These blocks were climbed by external ramps and through a kind of skates on which they rolled. From them they pulled pulleys and helped each other with levers. At the same time that height was being gained, the finished parts were covered in order to reaffirm the terrain. Finally, those external ramps, not being well anchored, would have been lost with the passage of time. This theory overturned the other theory which postulated that there was only one large ramp ascending from the base in a straight line to the apex, which is quite illogical considering that with such a slope it would be materially impossible to climb the large stones. The last great theory has been published by the French architect Jean Pierre Houdin. Using a computer program, he has developed a three-dimensional simulator of this construction process of how the large blocks of granite and limestone were piled up to reach the geometry we know today. According to him, the Egyptians climbed the blocks that were used for its construction through an internal ramp that formed a spiral tunnel that ran along the inside of the structure of its external wall. One theory after another appears. The next one dismantles the previous one, and so on. The construction of the pyramids is one of the greatest secrets of Humanity and only the ancient Egyptians could give us the answers.

The Templars and the Vatican In December 2008, the Vatican published a series of documents revealing that the Knights Templar had first been acquitted of heresy by Pope Clement and then the same pope under pressure from French King Philip revoked their acquittal and began to persecute and condemn them at the stake for heresy.
