Bakers, carpenters, water carriers, and others were also needed for the project. Along with the methods used to construct the pyramids, there is also wide speculation regarding the exact number of workers needed for a building project of this magnitude. When Greek historian <a href="/wiki/Herodotus" title="Herodotus">Herodotus</a> visited Giza in 450 BC, he was told by Egyptian priests that "the Great Pyramid had taken 400,000 men 20 years to build, working in three-month shifts 100,000 men at a time." Evidence from the tombs indicates that a workforce of 10,000 laborers working in three-month shifts took around 30 years to build a pyramid.<sup id="cite_ref-Verner_6-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Verner-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Giza pyramid complex is surrounded by a large stone wall, outside which <a href="/wiki/Mark_Lehner" title="Mark Lehner">Mark Lehner</a> and his team discovered a town where the pyramid workers were housed.

Borchardt received Khafre's pyramid, its causeway, the Sphinx, and the Sphinx's associated temples.
