The Pyramids. According to common perception they were built, with the begrudging help of great armies of slaves, by the ancient pharaohs of Egypt as tombs for preserving their royal bodies. Pyramids were meant to be monuments to the pharaoh's greatness, filled with great treasures for the afterlife. To construct these massive shrines, the pharaoh's copied the oldest and largest pyramid of all, the Great Pyramid of Giza.The pyramids were made over a 20 year pyramid!2560 b.c. was the first one built. But the great pyramids of Giza were built in 2480BC, for king Khufu. there are 3 smaller pyramids for his brides next to him.
