The ancient structure known for being a burial site in Egypt is the Great Pyramid of Giza. Constructed around 2580–2560 BCE, it served as a tomb for the Pharaoh Khufu (also known as Cheops) during the Fourth Dynasty. The Great Pyramid is one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and remains largely intact. It was originally covered in casing stones that reflected sunlight, making it shine brightly. The pyramid's design and construction techniques demonstrated the advanced engineering skills of the ancient Egyptians. It remains a significant archaeological site and a testament to Egypt's rich history and civilization.
