Όσον αφορά τις αρχικές ραδιοχρονολογησεις εδώ είναι τα στοιχεία που δείχνουν ότι η πυραμίδα χτιζόταν για αιώνες
1984
In 1984 we conducted radiocarbon dating on material from Egyptian Old Kingdom monuments (financed by friends and supporters of the Edgar Cayce Foundation). We then compared our results with the mid-point dates of the kings to whom the monuments belonged (Cambridge Ancient History, 3rd ed.).
The average radiocarbon dates were 374 years earlier than expected.

Because of the scarcity and expense of wood, the Egyptians would reuse pieces of wood as much as possible. Some of this recycled wood was burned, for example, in mortar preparation. If a piece of wood was already centuries old when it was burned, radiocarbon dates of the resulting charcoal would be centuries older than the mortar for which it was burned.
We thought that it was unlikely that the pyramid builders consistently used centuries-old wood as fuel in preparing mortar. The 1984 results left us with too little data to conclude that the historical chronology of the Old Kingdom was wrong by nearly 400 years, but we considered this at least a possibility.

The pyramid builders often reused old cultural material, possibly out of expedience or to make a conscious connection between their pharaoh and his predecessors.
Beneath the 3rd Dynasty pyramid of pharaoh Djoser, early explorers found more than 40,000 stone vessels. These vessels included inscriptions of most of the kings of the 1st and 2nd Dynasties, but Djoser’s name occurred only once. Did Djoser gather and reuse vases that were already 200 years old from tombs at North Saqqara?
In the 12th Dynasty, Amenemhet I (1991-1962 BC) left clear evidence of this kind of recycling. He took pieces of Old Kingdom tomb chapels and pyramid temples (including those of the Giza Pyramids) and dumped them into the core of his pyramid at Lisht.
Three of the eight radiocarbon dates from samples taken at our excavation at the Lost City are almost direct hits on Menkaure’s historical dates: 2532- 2504 BC. The other five range from 350 to 100 years older.
Our radiocarbon results from the Lost City site suggest that the dates on charcoal scatter widely, like those from the pyramids, with many dates older than the historical estimate. The inhabitants were very likely recycling their own settlement debris during the 85 or so years that they were building pyramids.

The giant stone pyramids in the early Old Kingdom may mark a major depletion of Egypt’s exploitable wood. This may be the reason for the wide scatter and history-unfriendly radiocarbon dating results from the Old Kingdom.
While the multiple old-wood effects make it difficult to obtain pinpoint age estimates of pyramids, the David H. Koch Pyramids Radiocarbon Project now has us thinking about forest ecologies, site formation processes, and ancient industry and its environmental impact—in sum, the society and economy that left the Egyptian pyramids as hallmarks for all later humanity.
Τώρα εσύ μπορεί να καταλήξεις με τα δεδομένα της έρευνας στο δικό σου προσωπικό συμπέρασμα πως οι πυραμίδες χτίζονταν για αιώνες αλλά το να κάνεις επιλεκτική αντιγραφή του κειμένου και να αποκρύψεις ότι οι ερευνητές που έκαναν την έρευνα δεν κατέληξαν σε αυτό το συμπέρασμα αλλά σε κάποιο άλλο είναι κάπως... πως να το πω... όχι και τόσο έντιμο ;
