The prefered material is limestone which easy to work with the copper tools available at the time. A limited amount of granite was used also to line the burial chambers and galleries.The pyramids built after the golden age of pyramid building in the Old Kingdom were often made of mud brick cased in limestone. Many of these structures have collapsed.
The Egyptians built the pyramids. A pyramid scheme is a financial scam. The boy used blocks to build a pyramid shape.

The pyramids are made of blocks of sandstone. This was ofcourse extremely heavy...
The blocks used to construct the pyramids were made of limestone and granite. These blocks were quarried and transported to the construction site where they were carefully stacked to form the pyramids.
No, Egyptian pyramids are not made of sand. They are primarily made of limestone blocks, with granite used for some of the inner chambers and casing stones. Sand may have been used in the construction process for leveling the base and as a construction material for mortar.
Pyramids and Sphinx.
The pyramids were built from granite rock blocks.
They were made of limestone blocks (outer) and granite burial chambers (inner).
they made blocks of mud and laid them in the sun to dry
Aztec pyramids were primarily made of stone and adobe bricks. The base of the pyramids was often constructed using large stone blocks, while the upper levels were made of adobe bricks. The pyramids were then plastered and painted with vibrant colors.
Blocks are a type of structure that holds up Pyramids and they are not part of Pyramids today because pyramids are no longer being built.
The pyramids were made of Limestone blocks (Outer) and granite burial chambers (inner). Some of the later pyramids built in the middle and new kingdoms were much cruder often being made of mud brick with a stone casing.
where were the millions of limestone blocks for the three great pyramids quarried
Most of them were made from limestone often quarried close to the building site to minimise transportation.
