@annelisethearchaeologist: So why aren’t there any decorations inside the pyramids? Easy answer: that wasn’t the style at the time (with the exception of the Pyramid Texts which showed up a little later in the Old Kingdom) and technicolor painted tombs were a thing in the New Kingdom, 1000+ years later! #TikTokLearningCampaign #historyfacts #archaeology #ancientegypt #pyramids
It’s like asking why a graveyard built in the last couple decades doesn’t have family mausoleums anymore. Things change

Really? :
It's always wild to remember how old civilization in Egypt is and how dramatic changes occurred throughout its history.

We also know at least in the case of the pyramids at Giza there was writing on the exterior of the outer casing stones. We know this due to many writers between 400 BC to 1300 AD. To what extent were they covered we don't know, but at some point visitors started leaving graffiti on the blocks as well. It's unfortunate the blocks were removed and only a handful can be found now.

Love your content!! Thanks!! Of course, the burial chamber of the Pyramid of Unas nearby the Step P is painted / decorated, as I'm sure you know. 🙂🙂😎😎 Is Unas a later pyramid?

There's an old game called Helen II, with an Egyptian inspired area. I would love to see you break down the inspirations behind it. I know some areas were taken directly from some of these pyramids.

Do you know if people in ancient Egypt travelled and saw the other buildings. Eg Abu Simbel, Karnak, etc.

so this is like expecting our burials and those from before 1066 to be the same? Wild!
the red pyramid looks less standard triangle inside?

Has there been anything recovered or has resurfaced of things looted from some of the found-empty burial chambers?
