Giza Pyramids in Egypt

Giza Pyramids are located on the Giza Plateau in Giza on the west bank of the Nile. Built by about 25 centuries BC, between 2480 and 2550 BC. They include the three pyramids of Cheops, Chephren and Menkaure.
And the Pyramids are the tombs of ownership of each of which bears the name of the king who was buried where builders, and the hierarchical structure here is the stage of the development of cemeteries in the architecture of ancient Egypt. It started small crater turned to the underground chamber and then to several rooms topped by a terrace. And then evolved to take the form of pyramid at the hands Eng Aamahotb Minister pharaoh Djoser of the Third Dynasty. This was followed by two attempts of King Sneferu, founder of the Fourth Dynasty to build a full hierarchical form. But back pyramids is a peaceful form. And are located in Dahshur one oblate Qaeda and the other took a smaller form nearly half the size of the first. The Engineer Hmeono able engineer of King Khufu to perform hierarchical ideal and the construction of the pyramid of Cheops in Giza, on an area of ​​13 acres and was followed by a pyramid of Khafre and Menkaure.


The Great Pyramid is an artificial mountain weighs six million five hundred thousand tons, consisting of stones each weighing approximately twelve tons, and this Court paving stones and settings to end half a millimeter, and this already deserves full admiration for the ancient Egyptian civilization. But it much larger, and is one of the largest pyramid puzzles faced by humanity since the beginning of civilization. Many have claimed that just luxurious tomb of the king (Cheops), but the current era scientists believe that this view is ironic, has been building the Great Pyramid for a higher purpose and is much greater than that. The evidence for that is those facts amazing enjoyed by this great edifice which has been collected Charles Smith in the famous book (our heritage at the Great Pyramid) in 1864, Rising Pyramid multiplied billion equals 14,967,000 miles, the distance between the Earth and the sun, and orbit that passes through the center pyramid divides continents of the world into two equal halves completely, and that the basis of the pyramid divided by twice the height gives us a fixed number famous circuit (3.14) contained in calculators. And the four corners of the pyramid is heading to the four original trends in accuracy so amazing that some scientists Oharoayoma to the presence of a small angle deviation from the original actors, but after the discovery of modern electronic devices to measure proved to be the corners of the pyramid is more correct and accurate.


As for the pyramid of Pharaoh Kora famous Bmenkera, scientists have noted that it contains a small circular gap does not exceed 20 cm in diameter. The archaeologists managed to learn the secret of the existence of such a gap after noticing very accurate, as it turns out that the sun's rays enter through that gap only one day a year to the tomb of the pharaoh of Kora completely. And even odder that this day and agree Pharaoh's birthday
