Why did ancient Egyptian pharaohs stop building pyramids?
Why did they ditch these iconic tombs?

It's even more strange that there are logical explanations for the changes that you refer to.Amazing how throughout history building techniques have got better and better and more sophisticated as time moved on .
But in the case of the pyramids they hit the ground running went from building the greatest structures on earth out of stone and managed to incorporate rooms in them supporting millions of tons above them capable of surviving earth quakes etc .
And then progressed to making them out of mud bricks that then collapsed strange they went backwards or where they just trying to unsuccessfully copy something that was already there

If you think someone else built them, why did they stop doing it?Amazing how throughout history building techniques have got better and better and more sophisticated as time moved on .

well one thing for certain is it wasnt the egyptians that built the pyramid at the bottom of the atlantic 20,000 years ago so was it the same buildersIf you think someone else built them, why did they stop doing it?
so go on what are the logical explanationsIt's even more strange that there are logical explanations for the changes that you refer to.

For a variety of reasons, great civilisations come and go, look at the Greeks, and the Romans, more recently the British Empire.If you think someone else built them, why did they stop doing it?
but since pyramids were inevitably plundered, hiding the royal burials away in a distant valley.( from link)![]()

I agree with that. But gasser seems find it an issue that Egyptians stopped building them, hence it must have been someone else.For a variety of reasons, great civilisations come and go, look at the Greeks, and the Romans, more recently the British Empire.

Well put up your evidence for what they were used for. You just keep asking me questions.Absolutely no evidence at all the pyramids were tombs or held any treasure , when they were first breached and entered not a single word about holding anything
The buildings that didn't last, that predate the pyramids, are lost in the desert.so go on what are the logical explanations
So why did they stopped getting built in China /Australia / The Americas /Europe / Indonesia . etc etcSo why did they stop doing it?
i dont have to put evidence up for what they were used for . Im pointing out there is absolutely no evidence that they were tombsWell put up your evidence for what they were used for. You just keep asking me questions.

I asked you first. Do you any evidence for anything you believe regarding the pyramids?So why did they stopped getting built in China /Australia / The Americas /Europe / Indonesia . etc etc
