Pyramids were the spiritual threshhold of the pharaohs. These monuments were the final resting place for the pharoh's body, while his soul passed on to the Afterlife. Many historians argue of the main importance of these vessels, but my opinion is that the hold a place in the hearts of the inhabitants of Egypt because they are living history for them to observe today. The Ancient Egyptians belived that having a Great Pyramid made you immortal in the afterlife.

∙ 9y agoTo the ancient Egyptian civilization, they funnily enough were not that important. To them, the pyramids were just the burial places of a few kings (most kings were buried in underground vaults in the Valley of Kings). To today's Egyptian civilization it is very important as a major magnet for tourism and a major source of income, since tourism is one of the few major industries that Egypt posesses.
