The great archaeologist, Dr. Zahi Hawass, the Egyptian archaeologist said that the commentary of the English newspapers on casting the statue of a slave trader in the river, and linking it to the pyramids and that they were built with forced labor is ridiculous, because the pyramids were not built with forced labor at all, and that the disclosure of the tombs of the workers was built by the pyramids, Which was found under the foot of the pyramids assures the entire world that the pyramids were not built with forced labor.

And Dr. Zahi Hawas emphasized that, if the pyramids were built by forced labor, their tombs were built next to the pyramids, as well as preparing the tombs of workers for the other world showing that the pyramids were built by workers who came through the large families in Upper Egypt and the Delta, and those families paid the workers ’wages and therefore they paid Taxes.

The great archaeologist, Dr. Zahi Hawas, pointed out that forced labor can build huge buildings, but they cannot be creative, because building pyramids has creativity and slaves cannot perform this scientific engineering miracle.

Dr. Zahi Hawas added, that there is no evidence for the existence of slaves during the era of the pyramids builders, in addition to finding a papyrus "Wadi al-Jarf" which talks about the chief of workers "passed" is the hero and with him forty factors completely refute this idea and refute this idea completely, and that The construction of pyramids by slaves was an ironic opinion, and the pyramids were built by the pharaohs of the king to become a god in the other world.
