If there are PYRAMIDS all over the world, why do we only focus on EGYPT?

Now that I've actually been to Egypt, the Pyramids are such a small part of what was happening there.

Greece and Rome borrow STEM and culture from Egypt quite a bit. It's also in the Bible, so after the Europeanization of Christianity, it gained more significance as well.

Egypt itself is quite advanced in terms of STEM, law, and philosophy compared to other known societies in the same time period.
You could argue that the other civilizations who made pyramids were advanced in similar ways, but at the same time backwards culturally by today’s standards and norms. That’s why we consider them “pagans”
Now that I've actually been to Egypt, the Pyramids are such a small part of what was happening there.
Could this be a reference to Islam? Egypt is Arab these days. The pyramids have nothing to do with the current state of Egypt… or do they?

But here’s a new spin on the topic, maybe @Koichos can answer

Why aren’t there any remnants of the Israelite temples (ancient Hebrew pryamids) left standing or even found around the world?

depends on which temple you think "started" the temples

if its the one in the wilderness, there is your answer

if its the one in jerusalem there is also your answer

"the bush burned with fire but not was it consumed..."

you asked: why arent there hebrew pyramids implying that they are temples

are there not thousands of pyramids all around the world active daily?

:yayo:they said in the time of nimrod that all of the earth was of one tongue and speech



Naram-Sin, also transcribed Narām-Sîn or Naram-Suen (Akkadian: 𒀭𒈾𒊏𒄠𒀭𒂗𒍪: DNa-ra-am DSîn, meaning "Beloved of the Moon God Sîn", the "𒀭" a determinative marking the name of a god; died c. 2218 BC), was a ruler of the Akkad, who reigned c. 2255–2218 BC (middle chronology), and was the third successor and grandson of King Sargon of Akkad. Under Naram-Sin, the kingdom reached its maximum extent. He was the first Mesopotamian king known to have claimed divinity for himself, taking the title "God of Akkad", and the first to claim the title "King of the Four Quarters"

I think you get the point I was making :hubie:
If by ‘temples’ you are referring to bateі k'nasіyyοt (Jewish prayer-halls) of yore then yes there are archaeological excavations, inscriptions and papyri dating from BCE times. But that is a misnomer as we have only had two Temples, both of which were built on the site Davіd purchased for that purpose (Sh'mu´el Beіt 24:18-24; D.H. Alef 21:18-25). Thus Mοrіyyah Hill (the ‘Temple Mount’) is the permanent and only Temple site upon which Sh'lοmοh set the precedence in the 480ᵗʰ year of the Exodus (M'lachіm Alef 6:1).

Center of Western civilization. And the West is overall still in power. That's why we focus on it so much.

Egypt has never been the "Center of Western Civilization".

Egypt as a civilization was dead and gone for almost 1,700 - 2,000 years before "The West" was ever conceived.

The "West" is at most 500 years old, and starts with the Germanic Tribes, and not a moment before.

The "West" had ZERO to do with the origin/creation/maintenance/peopling of Ancient Egyptian civilization. Nor Greece or Rome.
