I did the challenge

Today in Western Civ, I completed the pyramid challenge with my partner Adam. He was actually the one who got it, so we both finished. We talked about pyramids, and mainly just life in ancient Egypt. Mr. Schick kept calling me pinto boy, and kept mentionign cracker barrel because I went there yesterday. Some cool facts are;
-Egyptians  believed in the after life
-they believed that mummification would make you live again on the afterlife
-papyrus was the paper they used. They rolled it up and sent them away and used them a long time after to teach others
Pyramid building wasn't made by slaves at all
They started figuring out the movement of the moon, the river movement, and how it got hotter and colder for the calendar.
-The pyramid were the tallest buildings on earth for thousands of year
