Where was her pyramid of Cleopatra the seventh?

Cleopatra never had a pyramid. By her time pyramids were out of style for burials. She built a tomb for herself, as did most of the other Egyptian aristocrats.


Why did they need so many people to build a pyramid?

First, many, many people had to cut into the rock formations, and cut huge perfect stones to pile up for the pyramids. Second, each of thousands of stones had to be moved from the rock quarry all the way to the pyramid location. It took many people to build the wood structures needed to start building the halls and rooms that would be deep inside the pyramid. If getting the stones to the pyramid took many people, then raising the stones and piling them atop each other was major. The stones were so terribly heavy that it took a bunch of manpower to raise them and position them. So it would not take many decades to finish the pyramid, many work parties were formed to haul, raise, and lay the stones. To get the pyramid finished before the Pharoah died and would be buried in the pyramid, many, many thousands of people had to work together.


How long did it take to build a pyramid?

It's been proven, time & again, that slaves did notbuild the pyramids.During the time of flooding, a yearly occurance, farmers unable to work the flooded land would work on the pyramids, or any other national monument in construction, as manual labour. There are records of what they were fed (ie. onions, garlic, bread, beer) Other artisans (artists, carvers, architects) lived in villages near the costruction zones. Based on the ruins of the villages, these individuals were respected and well paid.The time it took depended on the size of the pyramid, materials used, and the intricacy designed into its interior. Experts theorize that the Pyramid of Khufu took approximately 20 to 25 years.It took 20-30 years, for 10,000 slaves to build the great pyramid of King Khufu. Perhaps the same number of workers and time to build the second pyramid. The third Giza pyramid took about 15 years and about 5,000 slaves.pink hats about 20 yearsIt is estimated that the great Giza pyramid took 20 years to buildit took approximately 14-20 years to build the great pyramid, it took approximately 80 years to build the Giza complex as a whole pyramid.Took about 20 YEARS TO BUILD IT30 years14 yearsPyramids are different sizes. I believe 20-30 years is average. But most slaves took less time because they were forced day and night to work.I takes about 15-20 years to build a great pyramid.
