Pyramids

the stones were most likely placed on sledges and dragged up ramps. Once they gained the working level the stones were manouvered in place by a combination of levers and brute force. The motive power for all this effort was human muscle provided by slaves.

The pyramids date from between 2500 to 2700 BC, more than 4500 years ago. Developed from the blocky mastaba of earlier pharaohs, the earliest may be the Step Pyramid of Djoser at Saqqara, dating from around 2650 BC. The Great Pyramid of Khufu at Giza is thought to have been built about 100 years later, in 2540 BC. There are about 138 pyramids of various sizes still visible in various locations in Egypt.

Mayan civilizations built pyramids at present-day southern Mexican states of Chiapas, Tabasco, and the Yucatán Peninsula. They mostly lived on the high areas of the land and built their structures there.

The color of a pyramid is typically orangy-brown but if they were made with mud brick,they would have been a bit darker in shade.So yeah the colour would be orange brown.if u want an even better description,search it up in images

The Giza Pyramides point to the constellation of Orion and they form on the ground their scheme.

The first pyramid was the Step Pyramid at Saqqara, built for King Zoser in 2750 BC.

Thieves would find a small hole or opening and make it bigger with a stone or chizel. Then, when the hole was big enough, they would throw rocks in to make sure there weren't any booby traps nearby. They would then feel their way around with a lighted torch.

Which ones? Mexico is literally covered by dozens if not hundreds of pyramids built by many Mesoamerican civilizations, including Olmecs, Zapotecs, Mayans and Aztecs.

Some of them include the Pyramid of the Sun in Teotihuacan, built around 150 DC, or the Kukulkan Temple in Chichen Itza, built during the 12th century.

Because Pharaohs believe that they had an eternal spirit that allowed them to rule the land after their death. So these kings built themselves magnificent tombs. Like a afterlife.

The pharaoh had all the resources of Egypt at his disposal and cost was not a priority. Even so the pharaoh did not want to waste resources: using locally quarried stone; using free labour provided by slaves who he only had to feed.

Stone was a readily available and durable material. As this was to be the Pharaoh's resting place for eternity it was important that the pyramid should be built to last.

In not so good times especially in the middle and new kingdoms the pharaoh had to make do with a pyramid made from mud bricks. This is not so durable and those pyramids tended to collapse after a relatively short time.

The came every year for three months when the River Nile flooded and no work was possible in the fields. They did all the heavy work such as quarrying, building ramps and putting the stones in place

They put furniture, foods, the mummy, valuable things, the stuff that the dead person used to own like their private things, & the body organs that the Egyptians took out when they were doing the mummification like the heart, stomach, & the lungs. The brain was taken out too, but the Egyptians thought that the brain was useless for the afterlife, so they put the brain in a jar & threw them away. Egyptians believed that the afterlife was an ideal, happy place like Earth & it is basically like a wonderland where it has many happy things.

She was buried in the valley of the queens.

The Pharaoh used this as a form of relief work - they hired the farmers to build the pyramids during the flood season when they had no work on their farms and would otherwise be bereft of subsistence - a win-win arrangement: the Pharaoh got his tomb built and paid for it out of the state granaries, and the farmers got food during the off season.

The Great Pyramids of Giza were constructed out of giant stone blocks weighing an average of about 1.5 tons (1360 kg). The largest stones weigh nearly 90 tons (81600 kg). The 144,000 white limestone exterior stones (casing stones) also varied in size and thickness.

Thy used nails, chisels, mallet, archedian screw, crane, bricks, cement, measurement, plumb line, lever, ramps, saw and that is about it.

The construction of a pyramid is always attributed to a particular pharaoh not that he did any of the work himself. He would command his chief overseer of public works to bring together all the materials and manpower required for the task. A workforce of thousands would be required ranging from architects, priests, scribes (who supervised the actual work); craftspeople including masons (the most important), carpenters, ropemakers and smiths; thousands of slaves to do heavy unskilled work of quarrying, moving the stones and putting them in place. Most, if not all of these slaves were naked.

She was born in 69 BC, but no one knows the EXACT date. The most accurate guess would be in early October. She lived from 69 BC to 30 BC, including during the reign of Julius Caesar as ruler of Rome (49-44 BC). Cleopatra was born in January of 69 BC.

A pyramid is a tomb, a temple is a temple.

The pyramid contains the treasures and body of the pharaoh. No one else is allowed in.

The temple is filled with priests and priestesses.

A pyramid is pyramid shaped, a tomb is not.
