That region of ancient Egypt was famous for its advanced technology. Without them we would be far behind now, and you can still see many of those inventions being used these days. Probably the most iconic egyptian sight are the Pyramids. It's hard to imagine what kind of strength and engineering genius it took to assemble such huge giants. Unfortunately we can't say for sure how they managed to put up the pyramids, almost all the evidence of the actual construction work was destroyed and can't be restored. But we know for sure that it required a lot of effort and it appears to be a very expensive project. Slaves who used to serve the pharaoh cut rocks to produce thick massive bricks that they had to drag on wooden rails to the construction site in the middle of the day despite the heat of the sun. Heat and shorteage of water caused many deaths among builders. It is still unknow how they managed to get those brick on the very top of the pyramids. The Pyramids deserve the title of the World's Wonder, and it's the only wonder left on Earth.
