Colonel Howard Vyse explored dynamited his way onto the pyramids' King’s Chamber in 1837, then using red paint and a brush [ in imitation of the ancient Egyptians ] began to make up the chamber to satisfy his financial backers that he had made a major discovery. Vyse is likely the one who painted the cartoosh of Khufu in the top chamber, but since it seems to run under the chamber's ceiling stones, there is no way to verify it. The cartoosh is the only actual evidence that Khufu was the builder. There were some papyri recently found that purport to show the building of the pyramids - but only scraps were found and it will take years and years to finish deciphering the text and more years after that, if ever, until a paper is published on the translation. He like some of the other 19th century treasure hunters used dynamite to explore or remove "useless " stones and pillars in search of treasure.

Would we have technology to construct cylinders 2100 feet deep today?

Pretty neat trick as there was no dynamite in 1837.
