In the first of three articles, Denys Stocks investigates exactly how the ancient Egyptians cut and carved stone. Adopting a very hands-on approach, he made exact replicas of ancient tools and worked out how to use them. The results are impressive and important, for they show that using relatively simple technology, the ancient Egyptians could cut the hardest of stones. This first article looks at the earliest periods of Egyptian history, from around 4,500 BC to 3,050 BC.
