Synopsis:
Alone of the Seven Wonders of the World, the pyramids of Giza have survived from ancient times in all their magnificence and mystery. Other civilizations built pyramids, but only the Egyptian used them as tombs for their kings, and these monuments formed a special link between the earth and the sun deity Ra, allowing the royal dead to rise up and join their god. This book offers a survey of the Great Pyramids, illustrated throughout with photographs and artwork. It is both guidebook and history which explains the wide variety and scale of these marvellous buildings: temples, memorials and mausoleums.
