Five Million Eggs For building Borobudur Temple

If you do not have two million eggs egg, never dreamed that want to make a temple, let alone like Borobudur temple. I got a few references that Borobudur was built over 200 years by spending about 5 million grains range chicken eggs. Chicken eggs were collected from residents of surrounding Borobudur.

Eggs that much, is used as adhesive stones into a temple, the main ingredient. Note, there is no temple in Indonesia, which is made apart from the stone. Unlike the temples in China, there are made ​​of wood. Temples in Indonesia should be of stone because Indonesia is a tropical country, where wood will be easily decomposed. In addition, the relief which is the important writings on the temple, would be stronger if carved in stone.

Unfortunately, until now there is no valid research to prove how many eggs have been used to build the Borobudur. What I said, just estimate.
