Where are the most Pyramids in the world?

The most mentioned in popular culture, which does not mean that, what is related to the pyramid, Egypt is also the most?

When it comes to pyramids, what is the first place you think of? Egypt, right? So now another question, which country has the most pyramids in the world?

Egypt? No, the answer is not Egypt, but the southern neighbor of this country: Sudan.

The reason, we have this misconception, a small part thanks to "merit" of the film makers. However, in fact, Sudan has about 200 to 255 pyramids, much larger than Egypt's 138 figure. These pyramids were also not entirely created by the Egyptians - but the products of the ancient Kush kingdom , once ruled along the Nile River from 1070 BC, until the year 350 AD. original.

It took until 500 years after the Kush built the first pyramids, the ancient Egyptians began to "imitate" to build giant tombs for the deceased.

Usually speaking of Pyramids, people often think of Egypt, and vice versa.

According to what Fiona MacDonald announced last year:

"The Kush people, like the Egyptians, put the coffins of royal lineage in the pyramid - as a way to help their souls get closer to heaven. When considering the structure of the Pyramids, there are many differences, such as the Nubian pyramid is steeper, narrower, due to being built with ordinary stones, in contrast to the great Egyptian pyramids ". On average, the Kush pyramid is only 6 to 30 meters tall.

The most concentrated place of the Kush pyramids is the ancient city of Meroë , located near the present center of Sudan - about 200 of the country's total of 255 pyramids. This means that this place was once a very prosperous land.

However, until now, there are still many questions that researchers have left open about pyramids in Sudan . For example, do their construction methods with the Egyptians look the same? Or how long was a Kush pyramid built? And what happened to this civilization?

The good news is that archaeologists are now concentrated in Meroë to work on solving these questions, with the help of a drone to scan the entire area from above, as shown in the clip below. of National Geographic channel:

Going back to the story at the beginning of the article, in addition to not having the most pyramids in the world, Egypt also does not own the largest pyramid . This title, belongs to Mexico's Cholula pyramid , is located inside a mountain.

So, the Egyptian pyramid that is most mentioned in popular culture, does not mean that, what is related to the pyramid, Egypt is also the most?
