Answer:
The Egyptian pyramids are ancient masonry structures located in Egypt. Sources cite at least 118 identified Egyptian pyramids. Most were built as tombs for the country's pharaohs and their consorts during the Old and Middle Kingdom periods
The Egyptian pyramids are monuments built for the then pharaohs, in which the bodies of kings have been buried and preserved. These dead bodies are called mummies. Food, drink, clothes, jewellery, utensils, musical instruments, weapons, animals and sometimes even servant servants were buried with their dead bodies.
Pyramids were built for religious purposes. The Egyptians were one of the first civilizations to believe in an afterlife. They believed that a second self called the ka lived within every human being. When the physical body expired, the ka enjoyed eternal life.
