Ancient Egypt
Famous Pharaoh's
A Pharaoh you might see is Akhenaten, the pharaoh of the 18th dynasty, and was famous in history for religious revolution. Egyptian believed in many gods, but when Akhenaten came into power he introduced the worship of one god that is the Sun God Aten. He built many massive complexes in honor of the Sun God Aten. The style of art which flourished during this period was certainly different from the other Egyptian arts.
*Akhenaten's year was from 1379-1334 B.C.*

The pyramids
The shape of the pyramid was because it was to represent the rays of light desending from the skies. The slaves were the main reason that the pyramids were there without the slaves the pyramids probably wouldn't be there.
