Despite the enthusiasm of French researchers for the study, there is still no consensus regarding the construction of the pyramids. The proposed theory is not convincing to many other scientists..
This is the case Judith Bunbury, Researcher at the University of Cambridge.Warning that, Although the Egyptians used another type of hydraulic technology at that time, (for irrigation systems or for transporting materials, for example), There is no evidence that they built water-powered lifting systems..
“It is surprising that when so many other details about technology and daily life are recorded in tombs and in texts, this type of device is omitted, if it is used at all.”He said, Speaking to Ars Technica.
