The tomb builder's position in Egypt was very important because tombs were built for the highest persons in the land, the pharaohs, both as a monument to their greatness and to aid them in the afterlife.

The pharaohs' tombs were enclosed in massive structures, the pyramids. The most prominent example is the Great Pyramid of Giza, built for Pharaoh Khufu (2609 BC - 2584 BC). It is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world that still stands today. It is 480 feet tall, and estimates suggest that about 20,000 workers over a period of about 20 years were needed to build the Great Pyramid. So any persons at the head of a tomb building project, for any of the pyramids, was in charge of a gigantic undertaking of engineering and coordination of efforts.

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Tarbell's exhaustive study not only gave rise to a new style of investigative journalism sometimes referred to as muckraking but also was instrumental in the 1911 dismantling of the Standard Oil Company behemoth, which was determined to be in violation of the Sherman Antitrust Act. Through her achievements, she not only helped to expand the role of the newspaper in modern society and stimulate the Progressive reform movement, but she also became a role model for women wishing to become professional journalists.
