The Mysterious Pyramids of Egypt
Get the inside scoop of THE Egyptian Pyramids
What is a Pyramid Anyway?
Wondering what these pyramids are?Well let me tell you all about them.Egyptian pyramids are pyramid-shaped structures.These pyramids were built because of the paharohs'.Now, Egyptian pyramids weren't just made for sightseeing or picture taking, they were considered tombs.When a pharoh dies, the people mummify the dead pharoh and place it in the tomb.Then they paint it with the face of the pharoh on the tomb because when the pharohs' live in the afterlife, when they go back to their tombs, they have to remember what their tomb looks like, and what a better way to remember by seeing your face on it!
The Bottom of the Egyptian Social Hierarchy
The Egyptian Social Hierarchy was how the Egyptians society was organized.This social hierarchy is shaped like a pyramid. First it was the pharoh and their family, then the priests and the scribes, artistically and craftsmen,stonemasons and laborers, farmers, servants, and slaves.Now since the slaves are forced to work, they had to…BUILD.THE.PYRAMIDS. When the pharoh starts to rule, the slaves had to immediately get to work since it took a very long time.
The Pyramids Looks
Now if you are first really understanding some information on pyramids, you also got to learn about style.Now the #1 thing you got to know is there style.Not all pyramids look the same.The style depends on what the pharoh wants.Like I said earlier, when the pharoh just becomes a pharoh, slaves get right to work and that means that they(the pharoh) can tell the slaves how they want people from a thousand years from now what they liked.
Why did Egyptians want the pyramids to be SPECTACULAR?
Now if you google up images, go on google earth, go to Egypt, etc., you can see that the slaves make the pyramids magnificent and spectacular and in my opinion they COMPLETLY outdone themselves.But why so spectacular? Let me tell you why.The pyramids the slaves build last for a durable amount of time and millions, billions, and maybe even zillions of people see them and the slaves want to set a good impression for themselves AND the pharaoh.
