Pyramids

Because Moses is said to have lived in Egypt in around 1250BC 1200 years after the Giza pyramids were built and about 300 years after the last pyramid. The Bible account (Exodus 1 v.11-15) of Moses does not mention pyramids but cities. Cities built predominately out of mud brick.

Another option is that the whole event of the Israelites in Egypt did not take place. It is at best myth, a reference to a lesser event blown out of proportion by the passage of time. There are no references to it outside of the Bible.

Slaves didn't build the pyramids, and no.

Nope. They're VERY different. Egyptian pyramids were made as tombs for royalty, while Mayan pyramids were made as religious temples.

The above answer does not relate to the question.

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.

True...

A pyramid is just a geometric shape, without restriction on the material of which it is made.

the reason they had pyramids was to honour the great pharoahs. they were believed to be the gateway to heaven. pyramids were only built to signify the king.

The main reason why building the Great Pyramid was hard because the work was done without the aid of machinery. Every stone was hewn from the quarries, dragged on sledges and levered into place using simple levers by human muscle power alone. It is said that 20,000 naked slaves toiled in blazing sun for twenty years.

no not all pyramids are polyhedron because each pyramid has a different shape. so no each pyramid is not a polyhedron

Yes they are.

is the oldest and largest of the three pyramids in the Giza Necropolis bordering what is now Cairo, Egypt, and is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World that survives substantially intact. It is believed the pyramid was built as a tomb for Fourth dynasty Egyptian King Khufu (Cheops in Greek) and constructed over a 20 year period concluding around 2560 BC. The Great Pyramid was the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years.

Egyptians Used big bricks of limestone To build pyramids! These bricks weighed 1,000 Lbs

Actually some scientists say that it would be impossible to build the pyramids, henze would take billions of years just for around 13,000,000 people.

The ancient pyramids mattered to the Egyptians because they usually contain the burial places of pharoahs, queens and etc. However, other pyramids like the three pyramids in Giza, do not have an entrance. An entrance has not been found for those (without destroying the pyramid) and is believed to contain something important. The pyramids are also important because they represent one of history's greatest architectual acomplishments.

No. Ancient Greece is considered the birthplace of western civilization. Egypt was the very first western civilization, but Greece gets the title as the birthplace of western civilization. Also, Egypt is in the eastern hemisphere.

A hexagonal pyramid looks like very much like an Egyptian pyramid except the Egyptian version has only four triangular sides and a hexagonal version has six triangular sides.

To excavate the stone 'pounders' were used to pulverize the stone around the edge of the block. 60 - 70 men would pound out the stone. At the bottom of the block they rammed wooden pegs into slots they had cut and filled the slots with water. The pegs would expand, splitting the stone and the block was then slid down onto a waiting boat

The earlier pyramids had internal designs that varied in style. Sneferu's pyramids (he had three) have chambers above and below ground. His son Khufu built a pyramid (the Great Pyramid) with a unique design in that it has chambers high above ground in the body of the pyramid. Pyramids built after Khufu have their chambers on or below ground. None of these early pyramids were inscribed with texts or imagery, their walls completely blank. The pyramid of Unas was the first to be inscribed with texts and is one of the most elaborately inscribed (see www.pyramidtextsonline.com). Still, it contains no images (other than a pattern on the walls that surround the sarcophagus), just wall to wall texts. By this time design had become standardised, most conforming to the same design: an entrance on the north side, a descending passage leading down into the pyramid at an angle of 26 degrees. This passage then changed to horizontal at ground level and was then usually blocked by three slabs of stone. Beyond this blockage was a small, usually square room called the ante-chamber. This ante-chamber was almost always positioned directly below the apex of the pyramid. On the east side of the antechamber were usually a few small compartments that were used to store offerings or even a 'ka statue', to which these provisions were given as offerings. On the other side of the antechamber, the west side, was usually a very short passage that led to the rectangular shaped sarcophagus chamber. This was where the king's body was entombed in his sarcophagus positioned at the western end of the chamber. On the walls around the sarcophagus was a pattern that emulated the palace facade, the rest of the chamber usually being covered in texts. The ceiling was covered with images of five pointed stars, to look like the starry night sky.

No. They are from the Teotihuacan civilization, who were precursors of the Aztecs.

There are records showing that around 820 A.D. Abdullah Al Mamun entered the pyramid by forcing an entry by boring a tunnel. A passageway was found and by following this, the original entrance was finally located.
