Pyramids 101 - Pyramid... the only WONDER of the World

Yeah... Pyramids... Full of mysteries and mummies... Alright, brief intro on the history of PYRAMIDS...
Pyramids was a symbol of the ancient egypt and it still is a symbol of egypt. it was used as a tomb for the pharoahs of the ancient egypts. No one actually know when was the first pyramids was built as there is still more pyramids to be dug out on the Great Plane of Giza. So far the earliest pyramid was dated back to the year 2650 b.c. It was Pharoah Zoser's tomb... and who knows there might be an older pyramid??

Alright... We can now start with the wonderful things bout Pyramids

Starting with OUTSIDE... the structure of a pyramid
Right... Some people will say what is so special about a triaglish thing with a square base?? Yeah... nothing special if it wasn't built with blocks of stones weighing at 2tonnes each. As we all know (maybe some of u dnt) most pyramids found are located near the Nil River-the sacred river of the Ancient Eygpt. Just imagine, in the Great Plane of Giza which basically is made out of desert, huge chunck of stones are almost impossible to be found. So where did the stones come from?? And even they can find the stones there... HOW THE HELL DID THEY MANAGED TO MOVE IT?? Let me see... most of you would be thinking of using crane... com'on... not a simple pulley was found at that time!!! 2650 b.c. man!!!

We are moving on... DESIGNS on the outside
Most people think that pyramids are as what they see on tv... Just a huge monument with the structure of 4 triangular sides with a square base... Yeah it's true but there is more about the designs... Do you know that all the Pyramids are built facing the four directions?? North South East West!!! Not a single of them was left out... Without a compass who can really (and dare) to point out the real North?? by looking at stars and rising of the sun perhaps?? Hey... guys... will that be accurate?? Nope! But as a matter of fact, all the Pyramids faced the same side at the same angle...

Get along now... DESIGNS into the secret now
Again... we are going to talk about angle and mathematics here. For your infomation the inside of a Pyramid in not SOLID!!! There are chambers n secret chambers and it's full of traps. Arrows!!! Moving mummies!!! Hey... that's for kids. Wooden arrow would've been rotten after almost 5000 years. Ok... The most special-est thing inside the Pyramid was the angles... Mathematicians then calculated made it such that the air travelled from the outside to the inside made the Pyramid on the inside cool n it preserves the MUMMIES... Don't tell me you were thinking of preservative all the while!!! Please la!!! Preservative only work for a few YEARS perhaps. But the mummies found now not only come in skeleton form... they have mucles attached... some of them i mean... How did they managed to do that?? HARLO!!! if i knew it then i will be a multi millionaire and Pyramids wouldn't be so wonderful la...

Scoreboard - Pyramids 3-0 other "wonders" of the world

Conclusion... 3-0 is enough to conclude that pyramid should be the only wonder of the world... No wonder UNESCO won't recognise the new Seven Wonders Of the World... hahahahaha...

this blog is for the fun of reading only. Not for the sake of protest or what so ever. have fun
yeah... experts outside... correct me if i'm wrong... tnx

Yea man, I think many people don't see the beauty in things until that get to know them well.
