1 Non-fiction: Ancient Egypt The Pyramids Ancient Egypt The Pyramids Illustration by Rebekah Hanousek-Monge Most of us have seen pictures of the great pyramids of Egypt. Experts believe that these pyramids were built for ancient pharaohs, or kings. The pyramids served as enormous and elaborate 1 tombs. Imagine building structures so big and heavy without modern construction equipment! The Great Pyramid of Khufu in Giza was built out of over 2 million stone blocks. Each block weighed more than 12 tons. It is amazing that all of these blocks were so skillfully put together. One thing has always puzzled archeologists. How did the ancient Egyptians move the blocks? Opinions vary 2. Many experts think the blocks were moved with ramps and sleds. However, no one knows for sure. It took many workers to cut the blocks. It took many more to move them. It took even more men to place the blocks on the pyramid. Archeologists estimate that over 20,000 men worked on the Great Pyramid. Building the pyramid took many years. Today, visitors still come to marvel 3 at this amazing structure. It s the only one of the seven wonders of the ancient world that is still standing. 1 elaborate: having lots of pieces, parts, or details 2 vary: to be different 3 marvel: to be filled with wonder or surprise 1
