There is a proverb in Egypt: "Man fears time, and time fears the pyramids." "During this thousand years, the pyramids of many pharaohs in Egypt have stood in Egypt, standing by the Nile. Ancient Egypt has perished, their wealth has disappeared, their culture has declined, and all that remains unchanged is the huge pyramids.
The Pyramid of Khufu is the largest pyramid in the world and the Seven Wonders of the World. Located in the Giza Heights, about 10 km southwest of Cairo, egypt's capital, it is the largest and tallest Egyptian pyramid in the world, with a height of 146.59 meters, equivalent to a 40-story tower, made of 2.3 million boulders.
Built around 2580 BC and completed in 2560 BC, the Pyramid of Khufu is an ancient, historic pyramid.
In the eyes of the Egyptians, the pyramids were not only mausoleums, but also burial places for the body and soul, but also symbols of power. The higher the pyramids were built, the greater they were, the more powerful they were, the more powerful they were.
The Pyramid of Khufu was built by the pharaoh Khufu of the Fourth Dynasty of Egypt, who wanted to live in a huge mausoleum after his death, and even more wanted to build a pyramid that had never been built after the ancients, so in 2580 BC, he ordered the people of Egypt to build pyramids for themselves.
The Pyramid of Khufu is not only a huge ancient building, but also a work of art, a work of art that humans could not have imagined a thousand years ago.
As Noshijun said before, the Pyramid of Khufu used 2.3 million boulders, and these boulders are not irregular boulders, but those with rules. In ancient times, when technology was not developed, building a building more than 100 meters high and using so many stones was a very simple thing. Therefore, some people even think that the Pyramid of Khufu was built by aliens for Khufu.
Well, without going into these legends, let's talk about some of the things recorded in history, some of the things about Khufu.
Khufu was the second pharaoh of the Fourth Dynasty of the Ancient Egyptian Kingdom, the leader of the ancient Egyptian slave-owning aristocracy, and one of the first dictators in the world. He has 9 sons and 15 daughters.
In order to build this huge pyramid, he spent all his efforts collecting huge stones all over the country, gathering skilled craftsmen throughout the country, and even summoning many people to build the pyramid.
At that time, Egypt's Nile river flooded every year, and the river flooded for 4.5 months. As a result, during these 4.5 months, farmers along the Nile were unable to work and had no income. Therefore, there are many peasants who are willing to work for the pharaohs to build this huge pyramid.
It is said that in order to build this pyramid, Khufu did a lot of ridiculous things in addition to looking for huge stones all over the country.
Khuf had 15 daughters, some married to other nobles, some even married to his own brother, and among these daughters was a daughter named Reis, the princess of Reis, who had a very tragic experience.
It is said that Khufu was absurd, and in order to build the pyramid, for more stones, he sent his daughter to the market and sold herself, that is, the princess of the hall, who was made a prostitute by her father.
Princess Reis had many lovers, and these lovers would offer Khufu a huge stone, that is, only one lover would have a boulder, and Khufu's pyramid would be one step closer to success.
Of course, this is ridiculous and hard to imagine.
If the legends are true, then this pyramid is called art, a miracle, and I don't know how much bitterness and tears have been carried by Princess Reis.
