The pyramids were built as tombs for the ancient pharaohs (/'fe?r??z/) of Egypt. The mummified bodies of the dead pharaohs, surrounded by goods and treasures, were hidden somewhere in the centre of the pyramids. The most famous is the Great Pyramid of Giza (/'ɡi:z?/), just outside Cairo. It dates from about 2,600 BC and is made from 2,300,000 massive, but exactly cut, blocks of stone. It is considered one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.BACKStonehenge (/'st??nhen?/) is a strange circle of giant stones in the south of England. Built around 1,800–1,400 BC, it seems to have had religious significance, and some experts believe that it was used for funeral ceremonies. However, no one knows for certain. The stones are arranged so that the Sun and the moon rise over certain stones on particular days of the year, such as the summer solstice. By observing the Sun, the moon and the stars as they passed over the stones, the ancient people were able to keep a calendar for their religious ceremonies.BACKThe Parthenon (/'pɑ:θ?n?n/) Temple was built in the fifth century BC in Athens, Greece. It was built in honour of the goddess Athena (/?'θi:n?/). The city’s name also comes from the goddess’ name. The Parthenon is one of the oldest and finest examples of the ancient Greeks’ great building skills. Even though it has been badly damaged and many things have been stolen from it, the Parthenon is still spectacular. It can be seen from most parts of Athens.BACK
