Great Pyramids http://www.cleveleys.co.uk/wonders/greatpyramid.htm Located in Giza, the Great Pyramids were the resting places of kings and other people of wealth. Originally covered with a marble type rock, today they look more like the photos on the right. The Romans defaced them with graffiti and used them for target practice.
