It's one view.Perhaps they always buried their dead, in the Valley of the Kings?

There is loads, have a search.

I've posted pages of evidence about who built the pyramids and why. We are now on page 183. Do you really want me to do it all over again? Why should I?So, nothing you are willing to share, just gut feelings?
It's quite simple. You posited an idea that the Egyptians suddenly developed the ability to build structures that lasted centuries.no point discussing this with you further as you clearly have not got the slightest knowledge
I said there were logical explanations.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
You asked what they were.so go on what are the logical explanations
I have pointed out that in developing the ability to build pyramids, they probably spent many, many years perfecting their technique.The buildings that didn't last, that predate the pyramids, are lost in the desert.
How about carbon dating which proves the pyramids were built when archaeological research says the were? I suppose you'll have an issue with that as well.
A reasonable theory, if you only knew a tiny amount about the subject.Fraid so....
They radio carbon dated seeds, fine, that is the age of the seeds, but it only dates when the seeds were last alive, and put there. The actual building, the pyramids, must have been there when the seeds were put there, and therefore older than the seeds, but how much before, how much older.
If the pyramids were built on top of the seeds, then that would be an entirely different matter.
I am pretty sure you know what your talking aboutIt's quite simple. You posited an idea that the Egyptians suddenly developed the ability to build structures that lasted centuries.
I said there were logical explanations.
You asked what they were.
I have pointed out that in developing the ability to build pyramids, they probably spent many, many years perfecting their technique.
But as their techniques wasn't yet perfect, their previous attempts have been lost in the successive centuries, and are now lost in the sands of the desert.
In considering why they stopped building them, as well as Denso's presented arguments, there might be the simple reason that the number of people available and prepared to undertake such massive projects couldn't be bothered anymore.
Or they developed greater understanding of man's fallibility. They realised that there isn't an afterlife after all.
dont believe me all you want show me all those treasures from the pyramid burials that are on display in museums the world over ........This one will be interestingI don't believe you.

No, yahoo it.dont believe me all you want show me all those treasures from the pyramid burials that are on display in museums the world over
Yeah the world over is full of pyramidal treasures , you are a clown . some bits of wood found in aberdeen is your treasures .No, yahoo it.

There you go then, glad we agree.Yeah the world over is full of pyramidal treasures
can you tell me when the next major display of treasures from the pyramids are ?There you go then, glad we agree.

No, the WEF bullied the museums so nobody knows.can you tell me when the next major display of treasures from the pyramids are ?
comedy goldNo, the WEF bullied the museums so nobody knows.
The seeds don't have that problem, they would have been placed there 'fresh' and they grew in a single year. That means you can have a lot more confidence in the date it gives you being the date the pyramid was actually filled.
