Detailed explanation-1: -Egypt’s pharaohs expected to become gods in the afterlife. To prepare for the next world they erected temples to the gods and massive pyramid tombs for themselves-filled with all the things each ruler would need to guide and sustain himself in the next world.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Pyramids of Giza, like the Egyptian pyramids that came before and after them, were royal tombs, a final resting place for their pharaohs, or kings. They were often part of an extensive funerary complex that included queens’ burial sites and mortuary temples for daily offerings.
Detailed explanation-3: -The tombs of the Ancient Egyptians were a place where people would be buried when they died. This was important to the Egyptians because they believed that life continued even after someone died, as long as they were buried properly in their tomb.
