Pyramids

Pyramids

Pyramids are buildings mostly constructed out of stone in ancient times, which have a pyramid shape. The simplest ones have a square or rectangular base and four triangular sides which meet in a peak at the top. With this shape, most of the building's weight is at the bottom, which means that pyramids are very stable and could be built very high.

Pyramids have been built by many peoples throughout history, mostly for religious reasons. The Egyptians are the most famous culture to have built pyramids. They built them for about a thousand years, until around 1500 BC when they decided they were too expensive to build. The purpose of pyramids was as tombs for the Egyptian pharaohs. The Egyptians believed that their pharaohs were gods on earth, and that the best way to make sure they returned to the realm of the gods after death was by burying them inside a pyramid.

Pyramids

Egyptian pyramids had a main room where the pharaoh's mummified remains would be placed along with a large amount of treasure. The shaft which led to the burial chamber would be closed off after the pharaoh's remains were placed there to prevent robbers from stealing the treasure. The builders also placed various traps along the shaft to further prevent robbery, as well as false burial rooms which were empty to further confuse thieves. There would also be a narrow chute from the pharaoh's burial room to the outside, pointing at the stars, so the pharaoh's soul could exit the burial room and go up to heaven.
