Morph,


Khufu's Great Pyramid is not the only pyramid, isn't it ? They all obviously share the same feature, namely that they are designed as tombs. I don't know from memory if an original mummy ever was found inside one of those pyramids. But what I know for sure is that (almost ?) all of them were disturbed/robbed. So, no mummies, no grave-goods. Does this mean that all the kings, just like Khufu, built their pyramids, but let bury themselves elsewhere, outside their pyramid ? I don't think so.
