Pyramids
The document discusses the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt. It was built around 2570 BC and was the tallest man-made structure for over 3,800 years until the Lincoln Cathedral was constructed. The pyramid was ordered built by Pharaoh Khufu and constructed by his vizier Hemiunu using an estimated 2.3 million stone blocks. There are two main theories for how it was built - that slaves were used or that highly skilled paid workers completed the massive project.
Ancient Egyptian Pyramids
The Great Sphinx of Giza was carved from limestone during the reign of Pharaoh Khafre around 4,600 years ago and stands guard behind Khafre's pyramid. The Egyptians built pyramids as tombs for pharaohs and their queens starting before the Old Kingdom, with the three largest at Giza constructed over three generations for Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure. While it was once believed that slaves built Khufu's pyramid, it was actually constructed by 100,000 workers during the Nile's annual flooding. The Pyramid of Saqqara was the first to be built out of stone blocks rather than mudbrick and served as the prototype for later
Giza pyramids
The three main pyramids at Giza in Egypt were built in the 4th Dynasty around 2550 BC as tombs for kings. The largest and most famous is the Great Pyramid of Khufu, which was the tallest structure in the world for over 4,000 years. The other two major pyramids are those of Khafre and Menkaure, Khafre's being slightly taller than Khufu's due to its location on higher ground.
Egyptian Pyramids
- The first Egyptian pyramid was built for Pharaoh Djoser and designed by Imhotep, taking the form of a step pyramid to allow the pharaoh's soul to ascend to heaven.
- After Egypt came under rule from Napata, pyramid building revived in Sudan, with over 200 constructed.
- Pyramids were designed with symbolic meanings, representing the primordial mound from which Egypt was created and the sun's rays, being faced with reflective limestone.
The great pyramid of giza
The Great Pyramid of Giza was commissioned by Pharaoh Khufu around 2560 BC to serve as his tomb. It took over 20 years and the labor of thousands of workers to construct the pyramid out of over 2 million stone blocks. At 481 feet tall, it was the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years. Located on the Giza plateau near modern-day Cairo, the pyramid now serves as a major tourist attraction and site of archaeological study.

The Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt was constructed around 2500 BC as the tomb of the Pharaoh Khufu. It was built over 20 years using around 2.3 million stone blocks and 100,000 workers, though how it was constructed remains a mystery. Standing 480 feet tall with a base of 750 feet per side, it remains one of the oldest structures in the world and an engineering marvel made of limestone.
Ancient Egypt Project Pyramids
There are between 81 and 112 pyramids located throughout Egypt. Most pyramids are found in northern or southern Egypt, and it took an average of 27 years to construct each pyramid. The largest and oldest pyramid is the Great Pyramid of Giza, built for Pharaoh Khufu around 2560 BC. It is the only surviving structure of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Other notable pyramids include the mostly ruined pyramid of Djedefre at Abu Rawash, the earliest step pyramid at Saqqara built under Djozer, and the pyramids at Dahshur including the Black Pyramid built for Amenemhet III.
Ancient Egypt Project
The ancient Egyptians built pyramids to serve as tombs for pharaohs and other royalty. They believed the pharaohs would need their possessions in the afterlife. It is estimated that around 20,000-30,000 laborers worked for many years to construct the pyramids. The pyramids contained burial chambers and treasures for the deceased pharaoh. Egyptians may have chosen the pyramid shape because it resembled the Ben Ben stone in early temples and symbolized the pharaoh's connection with the gods. The first pyramid was built at Saqqara as a tomb for Pharaoh Djoser.

Ancient egypt (Great Pyramid Khufu's pyramid)
Daily life in ancient Egypt revolved around the Nile River. The annual flooding of the Nile enriched the soil and allowed for good harvests. Most Egyptians were farmers who lived in mudbrick homes in villages along the Nile. They grew their own food and traded with others. The ancient Egyptians also built large pyramids to serve as tombs for pharaohs. The largest of these pyramids, known as the Great Pyramid, was built at Giza for the pharaoh Khufu. It took around 20 years and a large workforce to construct the pyramid using stones weighing 2-4 tons each that were dragged into place up ramps.
Egyptian Pyramids
The pyramids of Egypt, especially the three large pyramids at Giza, were massive tombs built to protect the bodies of pharaohs and be lasting structures. The largest, Khufu's pyramid, was originally 146 meters tall and made of over 2 million stone blocks, each weighing around 2 tons. The pyramids were precisely constructed using advanced engineering to point north and slope at narrow angles. While their construction process is not fully understood, it is believed they required 20 years to build using thousands of workers who slowly moved and placed each block.

At an original height of 481 feet, it was the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years. The pyramid contains several chambers, including the King's Chamber located near the top, which has a flat roof supported by nine huge granite blocks. It took around 23 years and over 2 million stone blocks weighing an average of 2.5 tons each to complete the Great Pyramid of Giza.
pyramids
The Great Pyramids were built in ancient Egypt as royal burial chambers for pharaohs. There were three main types of pyramids: true pyramids with four triangular sides meeting at a point, bent pyramids which change angle part way up, and stepped pyramids with layers that decrease in size. The pyramids were built using limestone and sandstone, with some like the Red Pyramid at Dashur using reddish sandstone for their cores. They were precisely located and experiments show objects stored inside pyramids can be better preserved.

The document summarizes key information about the Egyptian pyramids and mummification process. It describes how the pyramids were perfectly shaped structures built of granite by slaves for pharaohs like Khufu. The mummification process involved removing internal organs, covering the body in salt for 70 days, and wrapping it in linen before placing it in a coffin with valuable items for the afterlife. The document also mentions the discovery of King Tut's intact tomb and provides timelines of Egyptian history and pyramid construction from 5000 BC to 2500 BC.
How to build a pyramid?
Ancient Egyptians built pyramids using tools like copper saws, chisels, and adzes to shape limestone and granite stones. The pyramid building process involved [1] finding suitable land, [2] cutting and shaping stones, [3] laying the first layer of blocks, [4] building ramps to raise additional layers, and [5] continuing construction until leaving a hole at the top to place the pharaoh's mummy inside secret chambers. Pyramids were built as elaborate tombs for pharaohs because ancient Egyptians believed the elaborate structures would allow the pharaoh's spirit to transcend into the afterlife.
Egypt Besides the Pyramids
The document discusses several types of Egyptian architecture besides pyramids, including obelisks which were dedicated to the sun god Ra and carved with hieroglyphics, temples which were made of thick brick walls and supported by stone columns in a post-and-lintel style, and the Great Sphinx of Giza which is the largest monolith statue in the world and oldest known monumental sculpture.

Pyramids in Giza by group3
The three large pyramids in Giza, Egypt were built around 2575-2465 BC during the reign of the pharaohs of the Fourth Dynasty. The largest pyramid, the Great Pyramid of Giza, was built as the tomb of Pharaoh Khufu. The second largest pyramid was built for Khufu's son Khafre, and the smallest for his grandson Menkaure. Nearby is the Great Sphinx of Giza, a statue with the body of a lion and head of a pharaoh that has survived over 5,000 years as a symbol of mystery. The pyramids and Sphinx are among the few remaining wonders of the ancient world.
pyramids
The Egyptian pyramids were tombs for pharaohs built during ancient Egypt's Old and Middle Kingdom periods. The most famous are the Giza pyramids near Cairo, including the Great Pyramid of Giza built for Khufu. There are over 60 pyramids located along the Nile River, with most built as royal tombs out of stone or brick. The pyramid shape was thought to represent the primordial mound from which the Egyptians believed the earth was created.
Mesopotamia & Egypt
The document summarizes key aspects of early civilizations that emerged in Mesopotamia and Egypt between 4000 BCE - 200 CE. It describes how the Fertile Crescent's fertile soil and flood patterns supported the rise of Sumerian cities like Ur and Uruk, where innovations included writing systems, architecture, laws, and literature. Egyptian civilization centered around the Nile River, where pharaohs built massive pyramids and the practice of mummification helped with beliefs about the afterlife. Both developed systems of writing - cuneiform clay tablets in Mesopotamia and hieroglyphics in Egypt - to record their cultural and religious traditions.
The Pyramids at Giza
The document provides information about the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. It describes the three major pyramids built for Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure between 2650 BC and 1800 BC. Khufu's pyramid was the largest at 460 feet tall and made of over 2 million stone blocks. The pyramids were precisely built tombs for the pharaohs using massive stone blocks and ramps. Additional structures like Khafre's valley temple and Khufu's boat were built to accompany the pharaohs. The document also discusses the builders' village that housed workers and cemeteries for royal family members.
Egyptian gods
The document summarizes several important Egyptian gods:
- Ra was the sun god who was swallowed each night and reborn each morning. He also travelled through the underworld at night as a man with a ram's head.
- Isis was a protective goddess and the wife of Osiris and mother of Horus. She protected her son Horus.
- Osiris was the god of the dead and ruler of the underworld. He was killed by his brother Seth but resurrected.
- Anubis was the god of embalming and watched over the dead and mummification process.
The Great Pyramid Of Giza
The Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt is the largest of the original Seven Wonders of the World that still remains intact. It was built as a tomb for pharaohs around 2580 BC, taking 30 years and requiring around 100,000 workers. Its precise dimensions correlate to astronomical values, like its base length matching the number of days in a solar year and its perimeter matching the circumference of the Earth. The pyramid's design thus seems to have been based on precise mathematical and astronomical calculations.
Mesopotamian Gods and Ziggurats
The document provides information about ziggurats and Mesopotamian gods and goddesses. It describes ziggurats as pyramidal structures built by ancient Mesopotamian civilizations for local religions. Each ziggurat was part of a temple complex and had shrines at the top. It also lists and describes many important Mesopotamian gods and goddesses like Enki, Inanna, Marduk, and Shamash that were associated with domains like water, fertility, warfare, and the sun.

The document also notes factors that contributed to the decline and fall of ancient Egypt.
Different types of glasses
There are 12 main types of glasses used in construction including laminated glass, toughened glass, fusion glass, mirrors, etched glass, float glass, stained glass, beveled glass, figured glass, cast glass, frameless doors, and tinted glass. Each type has distinct properties like safety qualities, strength, clarity, coloration, or artistic effects. Laminated glass uses an interlayer to stay intact rather than shatter into sharp pieces when broken. Toughened glass similarly breaks into small cubes rather than shards.
Full Egypt Presentation
Ancient Egypt had a strong civilization that began around 3200 BC. The geography of Egypt, especially the flooding of the Nile River, supported the rise of Egyptian culture. Egyptians developed hieroglyphic writing, built pyramids and temples, practiced mummification, and had a society led by powerful pharaohs. Over time, foreign invaders like the Hyksos challenged Egyptian rule. The New Kingdom saw a revival of Egyptian power until internal struggles and outside pressures contributed to the decline of their empire, though Nubian kings later formed a Kush Empire influenced by Egyptian traditions.
Ancient Egypt PowerPoint
The ancient Egyptians developed a prosperous civilization along the banks of the Nile River. The predictable flooding of the Nile deposited rich silt that made the surrounding land fertile for agriculture. Egyptian society was dependent on the Nile for survival. The river also acted as a natural barrier that protected Egypt from invasion. Egyptian culture reached its peak during the New Kingdom when the country developed a powerful empire through trade and conquest.

The Egyptian pyramids were built as tombs for kings, evolving from earlier mastaba structures. The first pyramid was the Step Pyramid of Djoser, which had six tiers. Later pyramids like the Red Pyramid and structures at Giza including the Great Pyramid of Khufu were true pyramids with smooth sides. The pyramids contained burial chambers decorated with hieroglyphs and were surrounded by boat pits and other structures for use in the afterlife.
Old Kingdom Egypt: Royal Tombs
The ancient Egyptians placed great importance on burial and the afterlife. Royal tombs evolved over time from simple pit tombs to large pyramid complexes. The Egyptians mummified the dead and included canopic jars, coffins, and funerary items to protect the soul's journey to the afterlife. Statues of the pharaoh were also made to provide the soul a place to inhabit if the mummification failed.

Pyramids
Pyramids were massive tombs built by the ancient Egyptians for their pharaohs. They were constructed out of stone blocks, with limestone used for the core and granite for interior chambers. The pyramids were precisely oriented and included hidden burial chambers. As techniques improved over time, pyramids evolved from mastaba tombs to stepped pyramids, then to bent and true pyramid designs. The earliest pyramid was the Step Pyramid of Djoser built around 2630 BC, while the largest was the Great Pyramid of Giza built for Khufu around 2560 BC.
PYRAMIDS
The document discusses the construction of pyramids in ancient Egypt. It describes how the pyramids were built as tombs for pharaohs over 4,000 years ago. Workers transported heavy stone blocks from quarries along the Nile River using sleds pulled by animals or boats. The pyramids were precisely constructed with structures like walls, burial chambers and temples. The largest pyramid was the Great Pyramid of Giza built for the pharaoh Khufu, standing at 482 feet tall. The Bent Pyramid has an unusual shape that changes angles during construction. The Great Sphinx statue also guards the Giza plateau.
Egyptian Pyramids By Ardhendu
The Egyptian pyramids were tombs for pharaohs built during the Old and Middle Kingdoms. The earliest pyramid was the Step Pyramid of Djoser built in 2630 BC, making it one of the oldest monumental stone structures. Pyramids were constructed at numerous sites across Egypt, including Giza, Saqqara, Dahshur, Abu Sir, and Lisht. They were precisely built structures representing the sun and pharaoh's journey to the afterlife, constructed using massive stone blocks and featuring innovative building techniques.

This presentation provides an overview of ancient Egyptian art and culture. It describes the geography of ancient Egypt along the Nile River which protected it. It outlines objectives for students to learn about Egyptian life, art forms, and to create their own coffin painting. Key art forms discussed include sculpture, which followed strict conventions of facing forward with stiff poses. Paintings depicted daily life and the afterlife. Architecture featured pyramids and temples built by skilled craftsmen like Imhotep. Mummies were created to preserve pharaohs for the afterlife. Hieroglyphics and crafts like pottery were also cultural contributions.
architcture of egyptian architecture.pdf
- Egypt had one of the most ancient civilizations with many monuments still intact due to its hot, dry climate and use of durable materials like sandstone and limestone.
- The ancient Egyptians were obsessed with the afterlife, which is reflected in their architectural focus on tombs and mortuary temples cut into rock or built with stone masonry.
- The earliest tombs were mudbrick mastabas, which evolved into stepped pyramids like the one designed by architect Imhotep for Pharaoh Zoser, and culminated in the massive three pyramids built at Giza for Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure.
The mysteryofthepyramids
The document discusses how the Egyptian pyramids and burial practices evolved over time. It begins with mastaba tombs, which were low brick structures that housed possessions for pharaohs. The pyramids developed from mastabas, becoming large stone structures like the iconic Giza pyramids. The pyramids served religious purposes, allowing pharaohs' spirits to ascend to the heavens. Later, pharaohs were buried in the Valley of the Kings to make tombs harder to rob. The document examines various pharaohs' pyramids and provides details on their construction and alignment with astronomical phenomena. It poses questions about how the pyramids were built and speculates on possible methods.

Learning through artifacts
This document provides instructions for analyzing artifacts to learn about individuals from the past without access to books. Participants are asked to determine the gender, age, and two other pieces of factual information about each individual based on analyzing the artifacts, and to explain the significance of each artifact rather than just identifying them. The goal is to gain insights into people's lives and identities from analyzing objects without direct access to written records.
You Tube Project Highlights
The document summarizes several key events that increased tensions between the British colonies in America and Great Britain in the late 18th century. It describes how the British passed taxes like the Stamp Act and Townshend Acts to raise revenue after costly wars, angering colonists who had no representation in Parliament. It also discusses violent protests by groups like the Sons of Liberty and the Boston Tea Party in response to "taxation without representation". The Coercive Acts further punished Boston and Massachusetts colonists after the Tea Party.
The Southern Colonies
The document summarizes the founding and early history of the Jamestown colony, the first permanent English settlement in North America. It details how the colony struggled at first due to a lack of preparation and farming skills among the colonists. Disease and conflict with the local Powhatan Confederacy led to many deaths in the early years. The colony became more successful after John Smith took control and instituted new rules. The introduction of tobacco as a cash crop by John Rolfe helped the colony become profitable. However, the headright system of rewarding land for transporting colonists led to the rise of indentured servitude and later slavery to meet the need for labor on the large plantations.
The Christopher Columbus Question
The document summarizes Christopher Columbus' voyages to the Americas in 1492 and their significant impacts. It describes how Columbus convinced Spain's monarchs to fund his expedition in search of riches and converts to Catholicism. On landing in the Bahamas, Columbus mistakenly believed he had reached Asia and called the native people "Indians." His voyages opened the way for European colonization and the Columbian Exchange, bringing both benefits and devastation through the introduction of diseases, crops, and slavery to the Americas.
American History Overview
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
The Black Death
The document summarizes the Black Death plague that hit Europe in the 14th century. It describes how the plague originated in China and was brought to Europe by infected rats on trading ships. Once in Europe, fleas spread the plague by biting both rats and humans. The plague killed over 25 million people in Europe over 5 years, representing around 33% of the population. It caused widespread societal impacts such as labor shortages as people died in large numbers.
Torture In The Medieval Times
Medieval torture devices were used to extract confessions, obtain information, and punish crimes through inflicting pain in castle dungeons. Common torture methods included extraction of teeth and nails, beating, blinding, boiling, breaking bones, choking, cutting, whipping, flaying, roasting, starvation, drowning, and tickling. Devices like the rack, scavenger's daughter, water torture, stockings of parchment, iron boot, wheel, and pear of anguish were used to stretch, squeeze, or crush the body. Torture was also used for humiliation through devices like the brank and pillory. While torture obtained information, it also led to innocent people being tortured and confessing falsely to end
Physical Geography Of Europe
The document lists several major physical features of Europe including mountain ranges like the Pyrenees and Alps, rivers such as the Rhone, Seine and Rhine, and seas surrounding Europe including the North Sea, Mediterranean Sea, Bay of Biscay, Baltic Sea and Black Sea.
Questions Of The Day
The document summarizes key aspects of medieval Europe such as its location, important geographical features, the feudal hierarchy, effects of the Black Death, use of torture, religions involved in the Crusades, and how the Black Death spread. It provides questions and short answers on topics like those who devote their lives to Christianity (monks), the importance of the Magna Carta (limited royal power), who founded feudalism (William the Conqueror), the ruler who forced conversion to Christianity (Charlemagne), effects of the Black Death (shortage of labor and towns disappearing), the holy book of Islam (Quran), and how the Black Death transferred from rats to humans (through flea bites).
Life In The Middle Ages
During the Middle Ages in Europe, Christianity was very important and many devoted their lives to the Church as monks or nuns, living in monasteries or convents. Feudalism defined the social and political hierarchy, with kings and lords ruling over knights and serfs. Serfs worked and lived on manors, which consisted of a manor house, farm land, meadow land, and waste land, and employed a three-field crop rotation system to keep the soil fertile.
Islam
Islam was founded by the prophet Muhammad in the 7th century CE. The key beliefs of Islam are the profession of faith in the oneness of God and acceptance of Muhammad as his prophet, performing five daily prayers, giving charity, fasting during Ramadan, and making a pilgrimage to Mecca at least once in a lifetime. The holy book of Islam is the Quran, which outlines how Muslims should live according to God's commands, such as prohibitions on pork and alcohol.
Warm Greetings From Turkey
The document provides information about Turkey, including:
1) Turkish culture has been influenced by interactions with neighboring civilizations over thousands of years as Turks migrated from Central Asia.
2) Mustafa Kemal Ataturk modernized Turkey and is considered the founding father of modern Turkey.
3) Istanbul is a unique city located on two continents with a rich cultural history under the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires.
4) Popular Turkish foods include bread, kebabs, dolma, baklava, and Turkish tea. Fish and rice pilaf are also common foods.
Pompeii
Pompeii was an important city in Roman times located near Mount Vesuvius. In 79 AD, Mount Vesuvius erupted in a massive volcanic eruption, burying the city under ash and pumice. The eruption was devastating - ash blocked out the sun and made breathing difficult, trapping residents as buildings collapsed. While some initially fled, many remained until a final surge from the volcano the next morning completely buried the city. The volcanic ash preserved Pompeii, creating a time capsule of Roman life. Archaeologists later excavated the site, uncovering the preserved ruins of the city and even human remains. Pompeii provides valuable insights into Roman civilization.
Christianity
Christianity began as a new religion spreading in the Roman Empire, founded by Jesus Christ who was born in Palestine and taught in places like synagogues. Jesus chose 12 disciples including the Apostles to help him teach about the one God and encourage people to obey the 10 commandments and be kind to each other, in contrast to Roman polytheism. As Jesus' message spread, local leaders had him arrested and crucified but his followers believed he rose from the dead, and over time Christianity gained acceptance in the Roman Empire despite early punishment of Christians.
Romulus And Remus
Romulus and Remus were twins who were tossed into the Tiber river by the fearful king who thought they would take his throne. They were rescued and raised by a she-wolf. When they grew up, they decided to establish a city on the Tiber river but argued over who's city it would be, with Romulus killing Remus with an ax in his anger. The city was then named Rome after Romulus.
Rome Begins Guided Notes
This document provides background information about the founding and early history of Rome. It notes that Rome began along the banks of the Tiber River on the Italian Peninsula, which had a perfect location between Western Europe, Northern Africa and Western Asia. The document discusses how Rome's location along the Tiber and access to the Mediterranean Sea via nearby ports allowed it to easily trade with other cultures and adopt new ideas. It also summarizes that Rome grew in population and prosperity over time, eventually defeating the Etruscan rulers who had previously conquered the city, marking the beginning of Rome's rise to power.
Roman Empire Guided Notes
Caesar Augustus brought order and stability to Rome by centralizing the government and improving the economy and public services like fire and police departments. Caligula was a cruel and mentally unstable emperor who declared himself a god and tried to appoint his horse to the senate. Claudius worked hard to improve conditions in Rome by granting citizenship and better laws. Nero poisoned his step-brother and killed his wife and mother, leading to civil war after his death. Marcus Aurelius lowered taxes and helped the poor by selling his own property during a famine, and founded hospitals, orphanages and schools.
Roman Republic Guided Notes
The Roman Republic began after Rome drove out the Etruscans. It established a system of government with citizens having certain rights. The leaders were called representatives who served in the governing body known as the Senate, which was initially comprised solely of patricians. As Rome grew, the plebeians demanded more rights and protections against the power of the patricians. The Republic fought three Punic Wars over 120 years against the city-state of Carthage, eventually defeating them. Wealth poured into Rome but also increased inequality, weakening the Republic. Julius Caesar's conquests and accumulation of power threatened the patricians and he was assassinated, effectively ending the 500 year old Roman Republic.
Map Labeling
This map labels key geographic locations in ancient Greece such as the Agean Sea, Ionian Sea, Peloponnesus peninsula, and islands like Crete. Important cities are also pinpointed, including Athens, Sparta, Troy, and sites related to mythology like Mt. Olympus and Olympia.
Geography Guided Notes
Ancient Greece had a geography that differed from previous civilizations in that it was not centered around a major river. It was located in the southeastern corner of Europe, and was tied to the sea with a long coastline containing many harbors. This proximity to the sea made the Greeks expert sailors and traders, and most people lived near the coast. The land was suitable for growing crops and had a mild climate. However, Greece was divided into many independent communities and regions, making unification difficult. The earliest Greek civilizations were the Minoan civilization, centered on the island of Crete and led by King Minos, and the powerful Mycenaean civilization, based in Mycenae, which sent ships out

Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.
