Solution

The correct option is B Egypt
A pyramid is a structure or monument, usually with a quadrilateral base, which rises to a triangular point. Pyramids had many uses: they were tombs for kings, sites for sacrifice, places for worship and astronomical tools. The pyramids were built as burial places and monuments to the Pharaohs. The Egyptians believed that the Pharaoh needed certain things to succeed in the afterlife. Deep inside the pyramid the Pharaoh would be buried with all sorts of items and treasure that he may need to survive in the afterlife.
