The pyramids have lasted so long because they were made from strong stones and built with care. Like stacking bricks to make a tower, the Egyptians used huge stone blocks that fit together tightly. They also lived in a hot desert, which helped keep their buildings dry and strong.
Examples
- The pyramid’s stones were stacked like building blocks, so they didn’t easily fall apart.
- In a hot desert, the dry air helped keep the stones strong by not making them wet and soft.
- A little bit of care in how they built it made all the difference.
