Hammurabi's Code

The Egyptian pyramids are landmarks because they exhibit the astounding architectural feats and showcase the culture of the time. Built with primitive tools by today's standards, they used no pulleys or mortar, just large blocks of rock that perfectly fit. They were built to to guide pharoahs to the afterlife and contained everything that would make the journey more comfortable for them, from simple objects such as jewelry and dishware to people and animals the pharoah loved. They weren't just massive tombs, they were time capsules chock full of information. Within the chambers, there were frescos of everyday life and with the objects housed there we learned how they preserved their pharoah and how they lived.
