Egyptians

Hi! This thursday, my class went on a field trip to an egyptian exhibition and I will be sharing my findings with you.


I am sure everyone is familiar with the pyramid of Giza in Egypt, but do you know to be precise the amount of stones taken to build it

In truth the amount required is about 2.3 million stones and a pyramid took about 20 years to be built!! You must remember that the pyramids were built close to 5000 years ago.
Then the were no such things as cranes and mathematical instruments to measure the length or height of each block of stone. Imagine how difficult it was for the Eygpytians to build a standing pyramid! To egyptians, they believthe person has done good his life he would live in Osiris' kingdom a place next to paradise. If not the person's e that death is simply a door to after life. They believe that a person's doings up to his death will be evaluted in the weighing of the heart. They believe that if heart will be eaten up by the demon Ammut. Thats all I learnt. Got to go now. Bye!
