We all know that there are many pyramids in Egypt, but most of us don’t know the people of Mexico in the old time also built pyramids. They did not build the pyramids as tombs. They built a pyramid and then built a temple on top of it. The pyramids of Mexico are not as high as the pyramids of Egypt, but they are big. Each pyramid has a wide stairway. There is nothing inside the pyramid, only earth and stones.
Scientists think it took 1, 000 men more than ten years to build the great pyramid Teotchuacan. It is 2, 000 years old. On the top they built a temple to the sun. But now the temple is not there.
How did the people of old times build the pyramids? Scientists have studied the pyramids, but nobody can judge how they did it.
