First of all no mummy or funeral items were ever found in The Great Pyramid!
One of the reasons it was so important was the shear size of it. It was the largest man made structure for 43 centuries. It also stood for the symbolic power and wealth of Egypt. One more reason is that the ancients believed in the afterlife, and to survive in the afterlife you needed to be remembered by the living. So they built something that would last forever. When you see it you think of the ancient race. There fore they live.

The pyramid was where the king would be buried within the center or below. Their tombs would consist of twist and turns, hidden rooms and booby-traps to stop people from trying to steal the splendors within. The king was often buried with all of his worldly goods along with beer, oils, clothing, etc what he would need in the after life on his journey.
The three largest and well known pyramids are often debated to be built in line with Orion's belt which in Ancient Egypt was considered to be Horus or Osiris.. I can't remember at this moment in time. But the soul of the king would lift upwards through the pyramid and shoot straight into the stars where his afterlife would Begin. I hope this helps you somewhat.

The pyramids are tombs made to bury the pharaohs, so I think that the Great Pyramid is important because there, an important pharaoh is buried, also they were built in connection with the stars, I mean, in the same position that the stars had in that time...

i in my view do no longer understand how they'd. you're superb approximately copyrights expiring. it particularly isn't any longer purely American regulation, it particularly is regulation in accordance to a international copyright treaty called the Berne convention that quite plenty each and every u . s . a . interior the international is a occasion to. possibly they're going to argue that the copyright ought to start now and then final for a undeniable style of years. yet that would not make too plenty experience. i think of it particularly is purely a shot at night. i assume they'd purely say that it particularly is copyrighted, yet no you pays any interest to that
