of the way they were made.
The tradition of
building the pyramids started in ancient Egypt. The Pyramids are one of the oldest structures that are still on the earth. Each block weighs as much as 5 elephants. And most of the Pyramids are 450 feet high!
The Pyramids of Giza are made for the dead because ancient people thought that the people that died would go to another life and if they gave them all of their important things the dead would help them and save them.
The Pyramids are very big triangular shaped structures that have four flat sides that come together at the tip of the Pyramid.
The Pyramids were used for the Kings tombs
(Pharaons are the same things as kings).
