What was done in the valley temple done to the pharaoh who had died and where were they taken? 9) What actually reached the valley temples (you can see it on the digital images) that are not there today? 10) What did Cheops do to help keep the costs of construction low with the pyramids, what did he build his pyramids on top of? 11) How much did each lime stone weigh (some weighed more?) and how many stones? Did they have to travel far with these stones? 12) What were the pyramids covered with up to medieval and almost modern times that would have made them almost blinding to look at? What did the Arabs call these buildings and why? 13) Can you see any of the white limestone today? What happened to the limestone that changed the pyramids today? Are you surprised were they ended up and what they used to look like? What also might have been on top of the pyramids?
