Egyptian pyramids were used by pharaons to spend holidays


Once shrouded in mystery, the pyramids of Egypt began to be increasingly revealed. And a step was made several days ago when a team of archaeologists announced that the pyramids is the earliest attempt of man to spend holidays. "It appears that around 400 BC, the Pharaohs of Egypt gave up their usual places of residence to relax on the banks of the Nile near the pyramids," said Dr. Ismail Bilal University of Alexandria, in a press conference in front of foreign journalists. He said that the thick walls of the pyramids and their orientation were used to scare away any rain, so as not to disturb the holiday pharaohs of any rain cloud.

"And more, it seems hieroglyphic representations about the spirits in their journey after life were their way of telling ghost stories," added the Egyptian archaeologist. Despite its remarkable discoveries, Bilal and his team can not explain why the Egyptians drew their internal organs before being buried in pyramids.
