What Caused The End Of The Pyramid Age? | Immortal Egypt | Timeline

The professor explores one of Saqqara's last pyramid complexes to illustrate how Ancient Egypt's `Pyramid Age' came to an end. A worsening climate combined with political upheaval, famine and economic difficulties to plunge the state into a dark era of civil war, with the land dividing into smaller city-states headed by ambitious small-town leaders. In an obscure tomb in Thebes, she uncovers the stories of warriors who fought in the bloody battle that would eventually lead to Egypt's reunification, and reveals how settlers known as the `Hyksos' tried to infiltrate the fledgling nation's government to seize the throne.

​@VedoMikeSulli ...... the size is symbolic. The pharaohs are shown larger than usual to make him the center of attention, like we do in billboards. I really hope you were joking because, ... you're taking the wall drawings exactly literally? Found the problem. It's so very clearly art, symbolism and advertising, as it were. The pharaohs were everything, above everyone else. I saw a video about Cyrus the Great amd how his wall art was different. He had other people close to his size. He was more humble and wasn't overbearing like pharaohs were. All kinds of these wall paintings and stories in them were exaggerated, like egomaniac leaders often do. The size is symbolic.

Mrs Nicholson was her name and she was scary when she needed to be but she was always patient with me and my dyslexia but she also gave me that push I needed to do it on my own. She taught me about Mary queen of Scots ( I’m from Scotland) and Mary Queen of Scots is something big in my life. I cannot explain it other than I feel like I was there?

[@raed1276]

@Zack Erskine correct! The Egyptians were all things in most things but they were less of the traditional West African and southern Sudan typical black Africans as people would call them.. The Nubians to the South and Ethiopians to the southeast of Egypt were known to the Egyptians and at many points or their bitter rivals and enemies! Of course as the world goes all peoples of all times are a mix of all races and when traced back far enough we all come from the same two humans! That is factually true whether you believe in evolution or whether you believe in creationism you're still going to at least share that belief in two original humans somewhere near North Africa or the Middle East areas... Whether it be Adam and Eve or the genetic Eve as evolutionists call her but when these people existed and how they came about is where all the contention lies in the theories... I'd say Egyptians were closer to a mix between white Greeks Brown Mediterranean and dark brown Arabs and semites from the Semitic tribes... And remember the Semitic tribes include Hebrews or Jews and often cases, Aramaic tribes, and all Arab tribes. So it is impossible for Arabs to be anti-Semitic because they are semites and cannot be anti themselves while believing in themselves at the same time. They can though be anti-jewish or anti Hebrew which is kind of dumb to want to be something like that seeing as how the Jewish people are made up of millions of people all around the world with all different types of lives and experiences and beliefs and morals so it's almost akin to being racist but Jew is not a race it's a religion very touchy subject for some people it's always been very clear to me anyway good comment very true peace...

Leo Sim so you’ll know for future reference and not to be mean. For your sentence the word is spelled Fazed Is it fazed or phased? Specifically, “faze” means: “to disturb, disconcert, or daunt; caused to show discomposure”. ... From this, we can see why it should be “phased out” instead of “fazed out”, with “phase” referring to stages and thus “phased out” signally the end of some stage.

@@callmeincarcerated2503 jup. Egyptology is a 'pseudo'science. They might have some things right coz of the French finding the Rosetta Stone and they can now translate the glyphs.... but most of it is utter garbage. Just take a look at the unfinished obelisk, you clearly see marks as if someone 'scooped' rock out of there, like it's softened first to remove it. Yet Egyptologists... pounding stones and coper chisels. The same goes for the marble statues where you can see drilling marks at the base and it's pretty clear that the glyphs are of inferior craftsmanship compared to the statue, like some later people started to claim these masterpieces as their own but lacked the sophistication and knowledge the original builders of the statues had. Also the 'unfinished pyramids' aren't unfinished, they just weren't pyramids, and in all of these we see some granite precise coffin that's always empty. Egyptologists say it's a sarcophagus for mummies despite there have never ever been found mummies inside the granite boxes. Personally I think it's more something of a practical use, to store food underground in a cold place to preserve it longer then the heat above. Or even used as houses, around the Mediterranean Sea we see all cultures at one point hid underground and in caves. So it might have something to do with that. I'm also of the believe that the pyramids weren't tombs and they weren't (all) constructed at the same time. It's far more likely that they build over older structures. Almost nobody knows that there is even a labyrinth of corridors going underneath the pyramids at Giza, leading to giant granite boxes and all of it doesn't look like you would do it for 'just a tomb'.

I mean sure the old egyptians were pretty intresting, but it would be so much more intresting to understand who build all the high precision objects and imense machine structures like the great pyramids and also what was their precise use, when did the builder culture live, were they the ancestors of the old egyptians like their folklore says, why did this building culture develop such high technology, why didn´t they develop spaceflight or use large quantities of hydrocarbos(we know the did not because it would be very obvious even tens of thousand years later), were they connected or even the same civilaisaiton as those who build the high precision/basalt geopolymer structures in south america or south in asia and so on, way to many intresting questions.

"As Above, So Below" - precept of ancient sacred geometry All the ancients observed 7 moving objects in the heavens - the Sacred 7 Luminaries/7 Heavens/7 Classical Planets: Moon, Mercury, Venus, Sun, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. 4 of these can't be seen during the day/4 don't cast shadows on Earth. There are 4 primary lunar phases of roughly 7 days (~7.4 days) each, thus 7-day weeks and 4 weeks in a 'moonth'. Lunar year 354 days + 7 day week + 4 days = solar year 365 days. The Roman Calendar The ancient Egyptians, Babylonians, and Israelites measured with cubits. Common cubits = 6 palms x 4 fingers = 24 digits. All sacred buildings used royal cubits = 7 palms x 4 fingers = 28 digits. See Seal #2: GOD=GOOD=7_4 or FOD=6_4 (on Planet Nestor) Theory at 7seals.blogspot.com . Only the returned Christ & Albert Einstein reincarnated could produce that. 7/4=July 4th or 7 April 30 AD: Good Friday(74) when Jesus(74=J10+E5+S19+U21+S19) was nailed on(74) the Cross(74=C3+R18+O15+S19+S19).

The drug, Ivermectin is best known for its antiparasitic properties that can help prevent COVID-19 and is especially effective as early treatment. The drug also has antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties and studies have shown that ivermectin helps to lower the viral load by inhibiting replication. According to a June 2020 study published in the Antiviral Research Journal, a single dose of Ivermectin can kill 99.8 percent of the virus within 48 hours.

pretty garbage if you ask me. How does anyone know the egyptians built the pyramids in the first place? They didn't make any engravings about it... they do have engravings about some really basic civilizational things like food abundance, famine, kings.... but as for building the most massive structures on earth... nada, nothing. Only pointing question is: just how dumb are most people, really.

[@channellegendarium7677]

It is encouraging to know that times of upheaval never last forever. Even after the complete collapse of the state, Egypt restored itself to its former greatness.

[@brandontowle4981]

Did they? Seems like the empire eventually collapsed to only what was left immediately around the Nile.

[@channellegendarium7677]

@@brandontowle4981 If I recall, the New Kingdom expanded its power well beyond the Nile River.

[@philsurtees]

What I find interesting is that empires are a bit like people, and they go through different stages of life. All of the once great powers - Egypt, Rome, Persia, the Greeks, etc. - are shadows of their former selves, like old people going quietly into that good night. The United States is a young teenager, full of energy and happy to wield their big stick at the moment, but way off in the future they'll become a mellow old Sam. Britain, who are now in late middle age, are the ones who spawned the United States, gave us the most spoken language in the world, all the most popular sports, and started the Industrial Revolution, which led to modern society, but now they're not the power they once were, and are off on the long road into history. It's fascinating really...

[@channellegendarium7677]

@@philsurtees Thank you for sharing these remarkable thoughts with us! I suppose what makes Egypt unique is that they went through several lifetimes, the Old, Middle, and New Kingdoms, and arguably Ptolemaic Egypt.

[@nataliebierman3067]

Actually considering they were of the greatest civilization and had the most Advanced technologies, I would’ve thought they would have grew to an even better Egypt- but not until recently it’s become more civilized than in previous years, Definitely not restored to its greatness!!!!

Yeah, I just replied to that initial question in one second: They never build any pyramids ever around their high time of 3000 BC to 1000 BC. How long does it actually take that solid stone is crumbled, washed away. We see that in the "recent" mountain ranges of the Himalaya, Alpes, Andes and Rockies. It takes a long time. Definitely more than 10000 years.
