Ancient Egyptians stoped building pyramids mainly because of grave robbers. Since there were jewelry and valuable things, it attracted lots of grave robbers. They then made false passageways in the pyramids, but that didn't stop the robbers. Instead the Egyptians came up with the idea of making tombs.
Ancient Egyptians did not stop building pyramids mainly because of grave robbers. They just quit believing in an afterlife. It had nothing to do with robbers.
Because they stopped having divine rulers (rulers supposedly appointed by the gods)
There were no more Pharaohs and there was no need for them to be put in tombs.
They did not have executions they sent the criminals to the mines where they were make to toil until they died of overwork
They were built to be used to house burial chambers. These chambers were linked by ascending and descending passages. The 3 great pyramids at Giza were for Kings, the smaller ones were for other less important mebers of the Royal Family later, however, they realized that people (called grave robbers) were stealing the valuable things the great kings were buried with. The Egyptians believed that the deceased would need all of their riches and food and everything else in the happy, care free afterlife they believed in. If the stuff was taken away, they would not enjoy the afterlife so much. they started hiding the tombs in the Valley of the Kings. this did not stop the grave robbers though, but the graves were harder to spot than a huge pyramid in the middle of no where :P
Yes if Fabio lives there!!!!!!!!
Ancient Greeks were very serious about the Olympics that even when they are in the middle of a war,they will actually stop what there doing and go and play in the Olympics!
The Nile River, it provided the egyptians with everything they needed.
cause.
They buried them in tombs in the ground and rock-cut tombs
The high cost of building huge pyramids, grave robbery, loss of centralized authority, etc., were some reasons why the Egyptians stopped building pyramids. The later Egyptians built smaller sized pyramids which got damaged very soon.
The Egyptians belived that they would see the pharaohs in the afterlife + robbery
About 1550BC about the same time as the New Kingdom began. They began to bury their kings in tombs cut into the rock in the Valley of the Kings.
After the old and middle kingdoms.
They didn't stop
Many believe that pharaohs stooped building pyramids because of the extreme labor it took to build them but no one is completely certain.Pyramids were built as a resting place for deceased pharaohs. The ancient Egyptians believed that the dead would eventually come back to life which is why they left them with prized possessions. Workers prepared the bodies before leaving them to rest and took out the brain because they believed it had no real importance :-)
They stopped because tomb robbvers will steal gold and other things.They made The valley of the Kings to keep the kings safe from tomb robbers.
After the 12th and 13th dynasties, pyramids went out of fashion. Many of the 13th dynasty rulers did not bother building one at all. Only a few were made by later dynasties. The last pyramid built was for the 18th dynasty pharaoh Ahmose I who died around 1525 B.C. It was a cheaply built affair a pale shadow of a pyramid compared with the Giza complex built a thousand years earlier. Today it is a pile of rubble barely 10 metres high.
She made a hidden tomb cut in the rock in the Valley of Kings.
