Why are they called pharaohs?

Ancient Egypt was a civilization ruled by pharaohs. Egyptians did not call their ruler a pharaoh before 1554 BC. Pharaoh meant "Great House" in Egyptian and referred to the palace of the king. We really do not know how many kings ruled in Egypt . Ancient past the country was split up. There were at least several kings at the same time. There was also kings who ruled regions of Egypt before recorded history.

How did Egyptians make Pyramid

The pyramids are six rectangular structures set one on top of each other. Beneath the pyramids lie pharaohs and kings. The design of the pyramids are squares with four sided triangular sides that rise to a point. When the pyramids got higher they used ramps to get to the top.

Calender

The ancient Egyptian calendar was invented over 5000 years ago. It was originally based on the cycle of 12 months. Egyptians grouped into three seasons of four months each to the rise and fall of the waters of the Nile. Although the flooding of the Nile began each year around the end of June. The floods occurred within a range of 80 days and were not accurate enough to base a calendar on. So the ancient Egyptians based the year on the cycle of its reappearance. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharaohhttp://questgarden.com/97/11/2/100224101015/images/pharaoh.jpghttp://www.touregypt.net/featurestories/kmt.htmhttp://www.touregypt.net/kings.htmhttp://wiki.answers.com/Q/Why_were_they_called_Pharaohshttp://www.dragonstrike.com/egypt/ecal.htmhttp://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/03/080328104302.htm
