built pyramids as tombs for the pharaohs and their queens. The
pharaohs were buried in pyramids of many different shapes and
sizes from before the beginning of the Old Kingdom to the end
of the Middle Kingdom. There are about eighty pyramids known
today from ancient Egypt. The three largest and best-preserved
of these were built at Giza at the beginning of the Old Kingdom.
The most well-known of these pyramids was built for the pharaoh
Khufu. It is known as the 'Great Pyramid'. The Great Sphinx
is a large human-headed lion that was carved from a mound of
natural rock. It is located in Giza where it guards the front
of Khafra's pyramid.

precious collection of Egyptian art in the world. Over 250,000
genuine artifacts are presented, including an exhibit dedicated
