Snefferu made 3 pyramids in his lifetime. But the first 2 failed! But his third but last succeeded! This pyramid was considered the "true pyramid" ]]> 2018-01-10 01:09:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220015793 mavillanueva1 https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220016231 It took many people to build this pyramid. Back then they didn't have tractors to carry blocks and put it place to place. No this took over 2000 men and many, many skilled laborers to help heal and assist. They also needed lots of limestone and granite blocks. It may have took 600 years to make but to them it was worth it..]]> 2018-01-10 01:13:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220016231 mavillanueva1 https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220016572 The reason why they made it is because the tomb of the king could be stored in the pyramid. When the pharaoh died he would be worshiped and buried in a big painted with gold tomb. it would be stored inside at the top of the pyramid. Anybody could visit there to worship the pharaoh.]]> 2018-01-10 01:16:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220016572 mavillanueva1 https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220017466 This pyramid took many steps to get to peoples destination. Each side has 91 steps and 91 steps is a lot for a human being. 91 on each side means 365 steps on the whole pyramid!]]> 2018-01-10 01:25:40 UTC https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220017466 mavillanueva1 https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220022557 Most pyramids are made in Sudan and the middle east also china. But this pyramid is in Egypt where many pyramids are. The Americans are considered to have more pyramids then Egyptian people.]]> 2018-01-10 02:14:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220022557 mavillanueva1 https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220023106 The pyramid also was built because it was a place for sacrifice. So whenever someones bad or break the rules they would be sacrificed. It was very cruel back then but that teaches us that we should follow rules.]]> 2018-01-10 02:19:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220023106 mavillanueva1 https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220023943 If anybody died under the pharaoh who was important gets buried into the pyramid too. They get worshiped because they were important or they did something for their community. But they don't get worshiped as much as the pharaoh though.]]> 2018-01-10 02:29:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220023943 mavillanueva1 https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220024206 This pyramid had smooth angled sides. It was build to help the pharaoh. It helps the pharaoh's soul and help it ascend to heaven. So he could live in peace and harmony. ]]> 2018-01-10 02:31:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220024206 mavillanueva1 https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220024419 If the season changes there would be a sign." Serpent-shaped shadows would "crawl" down the side of the pyramid." Basically marking that its time to get ready for the change of weather because of different seasons. ]]> 2018-01-10 02:34:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220024419 mavillanueva1 https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220025865  Some pyramids need 317 million gallons worth of rubble. So they could just make this one pyramid! This rubble is needed to make the pyramid basically cement but they used rubble back then. ]]> 2018-01-10 02:50:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220025865 mavillanueva1 https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220027251 Some pyramids take more then 1000 years. Not just to make 1 pyramid. These pharaohs would fail many, many times to get the correct one. Like Snefferu it only took him 600 years to make because he only failed 2 pyramids.]]> 2018-01-10 03:03:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220027251 mavillanueva1 https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220028153 It took no advanced tools to make these pyramids not even the wheel. Or any type of car. It would be hands, body parts and tools like shovels, picks, hoe, and anything that was used back then]]> 2018-01-10 03:13:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mavillanueva1/vpe61i69lc23/wish/220028153
