The 4th dynasty Pharaoh Khufu (reigned 2589-66BC)
Pharaohs
The pyramids were built to protect the body of the dead pharaoh. Pyramids were built until the Egyptian middle kingdom ended. (c.1550BC) ~ Bye...'!
they thought it would bring the pharaoh up to heaven
he built the pyramid
It is believed that over 4000 years pyramids were built as tombs for Egyptian Pharaohs.
The wives pyramids, also known as queen pyramids, were built next to the pyramids of Egyptian pharaohs to house the remains of the pharaoh's wives or close relatives. These smaller pyramids were designed to honor and provide a burial place for important women in the pharaoh's life.
The biggest pyramid is the Great Pyramid of Giza. This pyramid is the oldest and largest of the 3 pyramids in Giza. It is the oldest wonder of the ancient world. This pyramid was the tallest man-made structure for many thousands of years. This pyramid was built as a tomb for fourth dynasty Egyptian Pharaoh Khufu. He was the second pharaoh of the fourth dynasty. Hope this helped :))
No, the Egyptian pyramids were built as tombs for Pharaohs to help ensure their success in the afterlife. All artworks in them were internal and provided for the enjoyment of the dead Pharaoh only.
The Egyptians built the pyramids to house their Pharaohs in the afterlife. Many people who weren't a pharaoh, like important people in Egyptian history, were buried along with the pharaohs. Oftentimes, Pharaohs were buried with trinkets and food and wine because they believed that when their spirit left their bodies they took the possessions with them. as for the Mayans and every other civilization that constructed pyramids, I do not know why. I'm guessing that they built them for many the same reasons although the Mayan pyramids were definitely built before the Egyptian pyramids.
the people of Egypt built the pyramids and built them to honor their Pharaoh who was considered a god.
The slaves built the Pyramids for the Pharaoh.
Probably the complex at Giza which includes the Great Pyramid of Pharaoh Khufu (Reigned 2589-66BC). This is the largest and most accurately built of all the pyramids built in Egypt during the old and middle kingdoms.
