    These pyramids took place in the Third Dynasty during 2630-2575 BC. King Djoser commissioned this monumental architecture in Egypt. The designer was Djoser’s prime minister, Ihotep, whose name is inscribed on a statue at the site. The purpose was to hold his mummified body. The Step Pyramid of Pharaoh Djoser's at Saqqara arose as a traditional, flat-roofed mastaba, although in 2611 B.C., by the end of his nineteen-year reign, it had risen to six stepped layers and stood two hundred and four feet or sixty-two meters high, making it the largest building at this time. The Funerary Complex of Djoser is a large pyramid structure that looks like steps with six structures stacked on top of one another, each one decreasing in size. The material used was limestone. These pyramids were usually eighteen hundred feet long by nine hundred feet wide; overall in size they were very large. Below the structure was the underground burial area, which consisted of a small room that held a statue of the deceased and there was a chapel for family to gather. A shaft then led down to the burial area that was sealed after the burial. This structure was west facing towards the setting sun. Under…

    The pyramids took a little more than twenty years to build. It was very hard to built pyramids. First, they had to prepare the place it was going to be built. Then, they had to take blocks of stone transport them and then place them. Each block was about two to eighteen tons. After that they had to put a casing to smooth the surface. But sadly over the years the casing has disappeared over the years. One really knows how the blocks were put there but there were theories.…

    The building of pyramids first started around 2700 B.C. when the first step pyramid was built for King Zoser in Saqqara, Egypt. Ever since then, pyramids have been commonly associated with Egyptian society. There were various types of pyramids, including (but not limited to) Mastabas, step-pyramids, and the bent-pyramid. Mastabas were not the true pyramid shape, neither were step-pyramids or the bent-pyramid for that matter. Mastabas were shaped similarly to pyramids, but were flat-topped and had sloping sides. Step pyramids were essentially just Mastabas piled on top of one another because, like the name implies, they consisted of "steps" going all the way to the top of the structure. The bent-pyramid was Egypt's first attempt…

    David Davidovits and Margie Morris. In their book, The Pyramids: An Enigma Solved, the scientists bring forward a theory on how they believe the Pyramid was constructed (Davidovits & Morris, 1988). In this theory, the two scientists argue that the pyramid is made from limestone blocks. From the explanation given by these theorists, the blocks used to build the pyramids were made from limestone, cement and water. The builders would then pour a slurry mixture onto molds that would shape the mixture into blocks as desired (Davidovits & Morris, 1988).…
