Our topic this term is all about Egyptians. Did you know Egyptians believed that if the pharaoh's body could be mummified after death the pharaoh would live forever?. The tombs were designed to protect the buried Pharaoh's body and his belongings. The dry desert heat worked to keep the Pharaohs's body and his belongings from decomposing and rotting away.
The Egyptians were responsible for building the pyramids. The reason they built the pyramids next to the River Nile was so it would be easier to get the blocks to the pyramid. The stones could be bought nearer to the pyramid building site by boat.
