O gradu

Najstarije od čuda, i, zanimljivo, jedino koje je do nas došlo, je monumentalni skup piramida u Gizi u Egiptu. Svi smo čuli za njih i znamo kako izgledaju, baš kao što znamo da su bile grobnice faraona. Ali približimo se i saznajmo neke zanimljive detalje. Egipćani su počeli graditi piramide davno, tijekom svog Starog Carstva: Najstarije su otprilike PET TISUĆA godina stare! Zapravo, najstarija poznata je stepenasta piramida u Sakari, grobnica faraona Djosera, koja datira iz 2750. godine prije Krista. Arhitekt izumitelj piramide bio je veliki vezir i poznati mudrac, Inhotep. Nakon ovog prvog primjera, Egipćani su nastavili graditi piramide sve do Srednjeg Carstva, gdje su koristili podzemnu grobnicu umjesto piramida. Ipak, od Starog Carstva ostalo nam je ne manje od osamdeset ovih, raspoređenih po Donjem Egiptu. Sada zamislimo da smo prisutni u pogrebnoj sviti faraona Khufua. Svjetlosni brod prevozi nas po Nilu iz drevne prijestolnice, Memphisa, do nekropole njenih predgrađa, na prostranoj ravnici Gize. Tamo su grobne građevine svuda okolo, jer je to groblje gdje svi stanovnici prijestolnice, plemići ili zlikovci idu. Naš brod staje: skupina svećenika čeka nas na obali. Iza, čeka hram posebno izgrađen za našeg faraona, gdje će se klanjati kao bog (nije li on božanske prirode?). Ovdje se tijelo faraona prikladno priprema i uvodi u sarkofag. Nakon toga, delegacija ga vodi pogrebnim putem do njegova groba. Već vidimo piramide. Njihova impresivna gomila ističe se nad horizontom ravnice, ostavljajući nas otvorenih usta. Sve je to kamen! Neobično teški blokovi granita, visoki jedan metar, čine redove tako tijesno da nije moguće ubaciti nož između njih. Redovi kamenja su obojeni, formirajući trake različitih boja; Vrh je zlatan. Sve piramide, apsolutno sve, imaju isti poravnanje: orijentirane su prema sjeveru s potpunom točnošću. Strane piramide imaju impresivan nagib od 51 stupanj, što kad se približimo dobivamo osjećaj da piramida "pada" na nas. U okolici se nalaze manje piramide i (pravokutne zgrade s nagnutim zidovima) za visoke dužnosnike.
