Historical information about the pyramids

1. The Egyptian pyramid is said to be the tomb of the Pharaoh (king) in ancient Egypt, but archaeologists have never found the Pharaoh's mummy in the pyramid. Pyramids were mainly popular in ancient Egypt. The base of the mausoleum is square, surrounded by four equal triangles (that is, square pyramids), and its silhouette is similar to the word "gold" in Chinese characters, so it is called pyramid in Chinese. The pyramids are one of the seven wonders of the ancient world.

2. The Egyptian pyramids are one of the largest buildings so far, and they have become one of the most influential and enduring symbols of ancient Egyptian civilization. Most of these pyramids were built during the period of ancient Egypt and Middle Egypt.

3. Most research data show that the number of Egyptian pyramid structures ranges from 865,438+0 to 65,438+065,438+02, and most scholars prefer a higher number. 1842, KarlRichardLepsius made a list of Egyptian pyramids. At that time, he counted 67 pyramids, but in his later archaeological career, he identified and discovered more pyramids.

4. Many inaccurate counts are related to many poorly preserved small golden pagodas and gravelly tombs. It is usually difficult to confirm whether tombs are pyramid-shaped, but they do exist and have been studied and identified by archaeologists. Most of them will classify and group these difficult-to-confirm relics, and the most important observation range is from north to south.

5. The main purpose of the pyramid is the Pharaoh's tomb, which has the function of protecting the Pharaoh, transforming the Pharaoh from a man into a god's safety facility, and enabling the Pharaoh to ascend to heaven. Pyramids have powerful religious purposes, and ancient pharaohs spared no expense in money, labor and price to complete them.

6.65438 On February 26th, the head of the Supreme Council of Egyptian Antiquities announced that Egypt would pass laws applicable to all parts of the world, requiring those who copied Egyptian monuments such as the Egyptian pyramids or the Sphinx to pay copyright fees as maintenance fees for thousands of Egyptian pharaoh monuments, but artists from all over the world were not prohibited from copying pharaoh monuments and Egyptian monuments in various periods to obtain benefits through painting or other means, as long as these works were "not 100% copies".
