== The earliest among these is the pyramid of Djoser (constructed 2630 BCE–2611 BCE) which was built during the third dynasty. The estimate of the number of workers it took to build the pyramids have a wide range from a few thousand, twenty thousand, and up to 100,000. The most famous Egyptian pyramids are those found at the Giza pyramid, on the outskirts of Cairo. Several of the Giza pyramids are counted among the largest structures ever built. The pyramid of Khufu at Giza is the largest Egyptian pyramid. It is the only one of the seven wonders of the ancient world still in existence. ==

 * = MUMMY =

Mummies were treated and made in many different ways--there wasn't just one "recipe."
== The eyeballs were often pushed into eye socket and covered with linen pads. Sometimes eyes were painted onto the linen, but eventually the Egyptians began to use stone or glass eyes. Some mummies received onion skins and occasionally whole onions for eyes. == = = = Finger- and toenails were actually tied onto the body so that they wouldn't fall off during the drying period.The brains will usually been gotten out fron the nose by a hook, because the peaple thinks that the brain is a waste. But they will keep the heart, they thinks that the heart is important for the afterlife of that person. The organs of the body will be put in four canopic jar with a God's eye to protect them. They will even put a cartouche around their neck to protect them. The things which they used in their daily life will all put in the tomb with the mummy. Such as toilet, clothes, food.... = == Clothing in acient Egypt are made of white linen, wool. Men normally wore loincloths or short skirts. Shirts for men were worn in some periods of their history. Women wore robes or tight dresses, some with straps that covered the woman’s breasts or with one or both breasts exposed, depending on the particular style of the time. Children rarely wore clothing until they reached puberty. Wealthy people wear leather sandals as shoes or sandals. ==

==== == Because Egypt was very dry, and relied mostly on the Nile River to water the crops, people in Egypt could only grow certain kinds of food. Mainly farmers grew wheat and barley.The Egyptians made the wheat into bread and into soup and porridge, and they also fermented barley to make beer. In fact, some people think the real reason that the Egyptians first began growing grain was to make beer. This is an Egyptian model of beer jars, which the Egyptians made to put in your grave when you died so you would have beer in the next world. == == The Egyptians also ate meat. You could go to a butcher shop and buy lamb there, just as people do today. Only because it rarely rains in Egypt, they could have the meat outside in the courtyard of the store instead of inside. Here is a model of a butcher shop, also from somebody's grave. Can you see the different cuts of meat all laid out? At the very bottom there is a whole leg of mutton.But, like other people from the Eastern Mediterranean like the Jews and the Phoenicians, the Egyptians would not eat pigs (bacon or ham or pork or salami) because they thought pigs carried leprosy. They ate beef and mutton and duck and goose. == = These are some special foods from Ancient Egypt: =

== Hieroglyphs, characters in any system of writing in which symbols represent objects (such as tools, animals, or boats) and ideas (such as motion, time, and joy). The ancient Greeks first used the term //hieroglyph// (meaning "sacred carving") to describe decorative characters carved on Egyptian monuments. The term is now mainly used to refer to the system of writing used by the ancient Egyptians. ==
