## Description

Step inside one of history's most astonishing engineering feats with An Egyptian Pyramid, a richly illustrated journey through the construction, purpose and secrets of an ancient royal tomb. Drawing on archaeological evidence, this Spectacular Visual Guide follows a pyramid from its earliest foundations to its gleaming final form-revealing how its site was chosen, how colossal stones were quarried and moved, and how craftsmen and thousands of labourers worked together to raise a monument fit for a pharaoh. Cutaways, diagrams and vivid reconstructions bring each stage to life: the bustling workers' town at Kahun; the organisation of building crews; the carving of mortuary temples; the rituals surrounding death, mummification and burial; and the vast " city of the dead" surrounding the pyramids. Packed with historical detail, clear explanations and stunning artwork, this is an accessible, authoritative introduction to Ancient Egypt - perfect for curious readers, school projects and anyone fascinated by the ancient world.
