It's an easy way to build large monumental architecture with hand tools.

Pyramids look neat. They're also relatively symmetrical and easy to understand building wise.
Take one level, build it, then take a smaller sized level and put it on top of it.

It's a very simple geometric structure

Stacking blocks is a pretty basic way to make big structures. Pyramids are also a simple way to make things tall.
It's interesting, yeah, but not because it's some spoopy bullshit. It's interesting in what it says about similarities in human cognition and how that relates to the growth of organized societies.
Why every civilizations use stairs?

in america we use escalator
If you've seen a baby stack things they do the same thing, it's simply the easiest way to make a tall structure. Either that or babies are aliens.

Not that hard to believe.

I think the scientific explanation in itself pretty spoopy and neat. then i remember tfw no gf

Three civilizations found the best possible way of stacking shit. Not much else to say.

and the importance of the equator in that growth

It ticks me off when people stop walking just because they are on an escalator.
When architecture is unsophisticated enough, yet civilization grows large enough, then pyramids happen.
Basically, they're the first increment of technology in grand architecture, because they are robust and simple and can be constructed with simple materials.
They use a lot of land area, but given relatively low population densities in nation states of the ancient world that usually wasn't problematic f they should need to sprawl out within urban centers.
This is why you see pyramids used in monuments of virtually all peoples that at one time served as an original center of civilization and with a large enough population to more feasibly support construction of large monuments.
You have 30 seconds to post the best tinfoil hat theory you have on this that doesn't include aliens
>the sandskins migrated from egypt from 3600 bc to russia in 2600 bc then americas in 1600 bc and pwned everything and built giant rocks

blocks are like cans and it only takes one autistic king to begin a massive can stacking project

Well, yea b/c that's not tinfoil it's most likely the truth.
best way to stack rocks
must be aliens
