Early Pyramids The building of pyramids first started around 2700 B.C. when the first step pyramid was built for King Zoser in Saqqara‚ Egypt.

It is also interesting how they were able to make the pyramids in such a short amount of time. While it took about twenty years for the Great Pyramid of Giza to be built‚ it often took only ten years for the majority pyramids to be built. I also find the artwork and hieroglyphics extremely interesting

Both Hammurabi’s Code and The Egyptian Pyramids meet the definition of a landmark. Although Hammurabi’s code meets one version of this definition‚ The Egyptian Pyramids have characteristics of both definitions. Hammurabi’s Code meets the qualifications of a landmark because it has endured historically as an effective tool of governance. “Hammurabi’s systematic

Since the first appearance of the Egyptian pyramids‚ they have been admired for their size and beauty. The pyramids consist of much more than their artistry and fame though.

Aliens built the Egyptian pyramids. Recent research supports the theory that the Pyramids were built long before humans inhabited the area now known as Egypt. It is also nearly impossible for the Egyptians to have lifted and moved the limestone brick used to build these massive structures. Only a more advanced form of life could have constructed such an enormous undertaking‚ while using advanced mathematics and geography that were not yet known to ancient peoples. Archeologists suggest that
