		One of the most outstanding factors that makes the Egyptians religious architecture so great is the fact that it has remained unmoved for thousands of years, undeterred by all that has taken place around.
		Undoubtedly the most striking reflection of Egypt’s architectural prowess is in the mechanical construction of their monuments, in particular the pyramid, with its ‘sheer size alone enough to dumbfound any passer-by’ (Silverman:135, 1997).
