Why did the Egyptians think Cheops deserved such a magnificent tomb?
Because Cheops had the biggest of the three pyramids , the great pyramid . The great pyramid was built over thousands of years ago. It was one of the largest handmade temples that was ever constructed. It took over 20 years to build the great pyramid. A while after Cheops died , intruders invaded the pyramid and stole the gold and the jewelry that was inside , along with the kings body! The great pyranid failed to keep the kings body safe. But it has kept his name alive over 4,500 years after his death. ~Anonymouse

How long go was the ancient pyramids built?
It depends on which ancient pyramids you're talking about.If you're feeling generous about your definition of "pyramid", the Babylonian ziggurats were built between roughly 4000 BC and 600 BC.The Egyptian pyramids were built between roughly 3000 BC and 1700 BC; the Great Pyramid (the one for Khufu/Cheops) was finished around 2560 BC. Khafre's pyramid (the slightly smaller one near the Great Pyramid) was built shortly after that.Mesoamerican pyramid-building started around 1000 BC and continued (in various different cultures) pretty much up until the European invasion in the 16th century. This kind of takes us out of "ancient" times and well into historical ones, though.There have been a large number of other cultures that have built objects that could with varying degrees of charity be referred to as pyramids; so unless you narrow it down considerably, the best we can say is "probably between 6000 and 500 years ago".
