POST#1 Protect your pyramid

The pyramids held very valuable ojects such as gold ,silver, board games, amulets precious golden masks and any other thing that was important to the king (phrarsohs) in there life time. WOW that would be alot of things for me if I was burried with important things in my life like the pharaohs were! having this many precious objects in a tomb made it very tempting to steal from the tombs. Anyways there was people called tomb robbers that would try to steal these important objects. This a very big issue for the egptians so they would have to very much protect the ancient pharaohs tombs.

POST #3 ♥Step right up to the step pyramids


The step pyramid had houses around it in the north and the south. Also the step pyramids had all togeather six steps. The first step on it was 398 feet long and 358 feet across. From top to bottom the steps were 198 feet tall and all very long omg that is really tall! Near the pyramid was a huge court yard that was consitered the first sports arena lol not the best place to play the sports that we play today, Even though they didn't play close to as many sports as we do today!

POST5♥Go right into the gross old tombs!


The insides of the pyramids were very interesting they had pictures that told everything about there life there was no writing on the walls only hyeroglyphics. And there was stars on the tops on the walls and there were egypitans at work on some walls. There also were many rooms in the great ancient pyramids. Such as the kings chambers and burial chambers these were known as the hearts of the pyramids. Also there was Queens chambers people today think that there were made for king Khufu.
