I would consider using polystyrene (often used as a packaging material) It should be easy to buy a small sheet of the correct thickness. It can be cut with a hot knife blade. You can paint it with water based paints and glue with a water based glue - Beware solvents will "melt it" although you could experiment with acetone or a solvent based glue to "age" it, but don't over do it as you will be left with a very small lump of plastic.

What is the pyramid of cheops built from?

he pyramid is predominately made of limestone blocks weighing an average of 2.5 tons. This was quarried locally at the base of the pyramid. The waste material from this quarrying was mixed with Tafla (a type of clay) and used to make the ramps used in the construction of the pyramid. There is some evidence to suggest that some of the quarries were filled in with the material from the dismantled ramps when the pyramid was completed. The linings for the passageways and the burial chambers were made from Granite brought from Aswan 400 miles upriver from Giza. The pyramid originally had a smooth casing of white stone from Tura on the east bank of the Nile.

How do you make model step pyramid?

You can make a pyramid out of practically anything 4rm cardboard to styrifome to even wood or metal. It is simple just cut out 4 trianlges with the same length and width. Then begin assembeling if the material you are using is wood then you should use wood glue. If its cardboard you could use a hot glue gun or liquid glue. I would not suggest stick glue because of the chance of collapsing. All tips should touch evenly at the top. Now you have yourself a pyramid.
