Answer 1

Egyptian pyramids, burial tombs are more impressive to see in modern world, these truly unbelievable treasures exist in the world. Pyramids are built by the ancient egyptians, great pyramid was build 4600 years ago. Great pyramid of khufu is one of 104 great pyramid structures. Construction process is massive, it took 20 years of period with a work force of 100,000 oppressed slaves, they cut down harder rocks and shaped pyramid. Alabster is a softer mineral compared harder particles, Egyptian shaped outer structure of pyramid using alabster. Burial tombs are located inside caves, underground, or in structures. This space is used to accumulate intermitent of a dead body or bodies. Usually people done it for their affectionates. It is one of the mysterious treasury of world, earlier Egyptians built mastabas, tombs made of dried bricks which then digged into soil. Earlier bodies are placed in oval pits, with few burial goods. After some years this becomes more complex, then they used wooden setups. In dead tombs both animals and human are placed one time. These are the reason while I consider these two as the important ancient civilizations. Pyramid are considered to be more impressive, because of it's stability to withstand these many years. Sand dunes, cyclones are popular in Egypt, by considering these climatic changes pyramid structure is more stronger.
