Cheops Not So Hot As A Mason
CHICAGO April 9 A small mortar shard from Khufu’s pyramid about 6000 years old was tested by the Portland Cement Association. The fragment proved to be a weak, easily decomposed mortar composed largely of impure alabaster. In North Africa’s dry heat the material endured, but in climates like the United States it would decay quickly. The association has also tested mortars and cements and analyzed concrete from the Arch of Titus in Rome.
