Have you ever wondered what happened to the casing stones of this seventh wonder of the ancient world? The Great Pyramid of Giza was built by King Khufu in 2550 BCE and was once encased in highly polished, white limestone that likely reflected the sun from many miles away. After 3800 years, an earthquake in 1303 loosened the stones, allowing for the growing populace of Cairo to remove them and repurpose them in the construction of mosques and other buildings and roads in the area. Some of the casing stones still remain around the base of the great pyramid, but most were removed.
