Egypt Pyramid

Egypt Pyramid

The Egyptian pyramids are one of the most iconic symbols of ancient Egypt. The origins of pyramid building in ancient Egypt can be traced back to the third dynasty, with the construction of the Pyramid of Djoser, which is considered to be the world's oldest substantial monumental structure built of dressed stone . The Pyramid Age spanned over a thousand years, with pyramids being constructed by large work gangs over a period of many years . The pyramids originated from simple rectangular "mastaba" tombs that were constructed in Egypt over 5,000 years ago

The Great Pyramid of Giza is undoubtedly the most famous pyramid in Egypt. It was built as the tomb of Pharaoh Khufu, who ruled during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom. Standing at an impressive height of 481 feet (147 meters) above the plateau, it is the largest Egyptian pyramid and consists of an estimated 2.3 million stone blocks

Finally solving the mystery of how such architectural wonders could have been built with primitive tools in ancient times, Egyptologists from Cambridge University announced Thursday that they had unearthed depictions of the simple ramps and levers that aliens used to build the pyramids at Giza. “Shortly after traveling to Earth in their quantum-drive spaceships, extraterrestrials must have unloaded the ropes, inclined planes, and primitive copper tools we see pictured here,” Professor Giles Egerton said as he pointed to the ancient hieroglyphs etched into a newly discovered limestone tablet, adding that the skeptics who doubted the ancient Egyptians’ ability to erect the pyramids without alien assistance had been vindicated.

The Pyramid Complex at Giza

The Pyramid Complex at Giza is dominated by the three pyramids constructed on the Giza plateau on the west bank of the Nile during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom of Ancient Egypt (c. 2575-2465 BCE). The pyramids are assumed to have been built as the final resting place for the three pharaohs Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure. 

The northernmost and oldest pyramid (also called the Great Pyramid) is that of Khufu, the second pharaoh of the Fourth Dynasty, with a side length at its base of 230 metres and an original height of almost 150 metres. It was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one still in existence. The middle pyramid to the south is that of Khafre, the fourth pharaoh of the Fourth Dynasty, and measures some 216 metres on each side and originally rose some 140 metres. The southernmost and smallest pyramid is that of Menkaure, the fifth pharaoh of the Fourth Dynasty, with each side measuring 109 metres and a height of 66 metres. 

All three pyramids originally had an outer casing of white limestone which was largely removed throughout the ages for use in other structures. Only Khafre's pyramid retains some of its outer casing at the top. Each pyramid complex also contains a funerary temple, as well as the resting places of queens and members of the nobility. Khafre's pyramid complex also contains the Great Sphinx, a mythical creature carved out of limestone. Surrounding the pyramids are extensive grid-patterned fields of mastabas for officials and lesser relatives of the pharaohs.
