Detailed explanation-1: -Wood. The wood was used not in the pyramids but in the adjoining buildings of the funerary complex of the pharaohs. There are some traces, like in the funerary chapels of the pyramid of Djoser, in Saqqara. Obviously, this material has completely disappeared nowadays, eaten away by time.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Great Pyramids of Giza It was built for Pharaoh Khufu (Cheops, in Greek), Sneferu’s successor and the second of the eight kings of the fourth dynasty. Though Khufu reigned for 23 years (2589-2566 B.C.), relatively little is known of his reign beyond the grandeur of his pyramid.
Detailed explanation-3: -What is not true about the Great Pyramids at Gizeh? They originally had a temple balanced on top.
