The complexes of the pyramids

Pyramids of Giza.

The pyramids were part of a funerary complex, emerging as large monumental buildings in the
era of Dyeser (Zoser) pharaoh of Dynasty III, re-emerging during the Middle Kingdom, although
erected with adobe bricks and stone cladding. The last pyramids, although smaller and more
stylized, were built during the XXV dynasty, in and are found in the necropolises of Meroe and
Napata.

Temple

The temple was the building used to honor the gods. Most had a similar distribution, which
was divided into the following parts:

Avenue of Sphinxes

A walk that led to the temple and was full of sphinxes, figures with a lion's body and a human
head.

Pylon

It was the entrance, formed by a great wall before which obelisks or representations of the
pharaoh were placed.

Hípetra Room

An open courtyard surrounded by columns. Inside there were a lot of sculptures. Anyone could
enter.

Hypostyle Room

He was inside. It was a room with giant columns that could only be accessed by the pharaoh,
the priests and the high officials.

Sanctuaries

They were the most important rooms. The one known as Sancta Sanctorum was dedicated to
the main god. In another room was the boat that was removed in the processions by the river.
Only the pharaoh and the chief priest could enter.
Obelisk

The obelisk was another of the most outstanding religious representations. It consisted of an
elongated quadrangular column that was raised on a larger base.

In it hieroglyphic inscriptions were carved indicating the pharaoh who had commissioned it
and the god to whom it was dedicated. If you are interested in hieroglyphic writing, you will
find more information in this article: Egyptian hieroglyphs and writing: meaning and
characteristics.

Mastaba

The mastaba was the first tomb model for pharaohs and prominent people who made the
Egyptians during the Archaic Period and the Ancient Empire. It was rectangular and had an
underground chamber in which they left the body through a well.
Civil architecture

Civil architecture is the least to transcended of Egyptian history, since there are few preserved
examples that we can find today.

Living place

Domestic construction, unlike religious monuments, was a type of perishable building, since
materials such as adobe and brick were used. As a result, there are no remains at present and
the information that is available comes from the reliefs of other buildings
