The Egyptians built the pyramids for 3 big reasons. 1. They needed to build a structure to reach the gods.

2. They used them as graves for people with royal power.

3. Every advanced culture must have their own type of building.

4. the actual pyramid building age in Egypt lasted from c.2650 to 1550BC starting with the step pyramid of king Djoser, through it peak period cumulating with the three great stone pyramids at Giza, then slowly deteriorating to mud brick structures cased in stone of the early new kingdom.
