Pyramids of Egypt | SEEL Paragraphs

Long ago, the pyramids were built with the newest technology of Ancient Egypt. Since those times, the technologies to build the pyramids have been lost to time. The pyramids, used as burials for pharaohs, were complicated structures with tombs and pathways. Each tomb contained a sarcophagus, riches, a mummified pharaoh, and any close family they had. Animals they owned and any wives would be killed and mummified and laid to rest to pass into the afterlife with the pharaoh. I am unable to identify whether husbands were buried were female pharaohs or not. An example of one of these Pyramids would be the Great Pyramid of Giza. This particular pyramid was made for the pharaoh Khufu and was so complicated and detailed it took thirty years to create, maybe even longer. However, we still know nothing about how they were created, as they have long lost the knowledge to time.

The advancements that occurred during the time of Ancient Egypt were major. The advancements that were seen in Egypt at this time were things we know very well today, such as mathematics, writing, construction, time-telling and agriculture. For example, we knew how the Ancient Egyptians were known for the mummification of their dead, however, what most don't know is how this attributed to the Ancient Egyptians knowledge of medicine. Through mummification, they were able to learn about anatomy and cures for illnesses. Though some of their methods were questionable. Throughout this, however, the advancements they made were necessary for the development into the world we have now.
