The unfinished granite sarcophagus at the Cairo Museum
The unfinished granite sarcophagus at the Cairo Museum, over 4,000 years old, features a deep cut that stands out against its otherwise smooth surfaces.
While traditional explanations point to copper saws operated by hand, it’s unlikely that a hand operated copper saw would have drifted off course for such a distance before the craftsmen noticed and abandoned the project.
This raises questions about whether ancient Egyptians used more advanced techniques or tools than previously thought.
