Long, long ago, very strong and smart people called Egyptians built the pyramids! 👷♂️ They used big stones and worked together like a big team. The pyramids were like giant treasure boxes for kings called pharaohs! 👑
They built them so well that they still stand today! Isn’t that amazing? 😊
The pyramids were built by ancient Egyptians over 4,500 years ago! 🏺 They were skilled builders who used tools like copper chisels and wooden sledges to move huge stones. The biggest pyramid, the Great Pyramid of Giza, was built for Pharaoh Khufu.
Thousands of workers, including farmers, helped build them during the Nile floods when they couldn’t farm. They were paid with food and clothes! 👕
The pyramids were constructed by ancient Egyptian workers, not slaves, as once believed. Archaeologists found workers' villages near the pyramids, proving they were paid laborers. They used advanced techniques like ramps, levers, and precise measurements to build these massive structures.
The Great Pyramid of Giza consists of over 2 million stone blocks, each weighing 2-15 tons! It was originally covered in shiny white limestone, making it glow in the sun. 🌞
These pyramids served as tombs for pharaohs, filled with treasures for the afterlife. The Egyptians believed in preserving the body (mummification) so the pharaoh could live forever in the next world.
