These ancient pyramids at Saqqara, Egypt, speak resilient of themselves.
Below is an introduction from Wikipedia:
At Saqqara, the oldest complete stone building complex known in history was built: Djoser”s step pyramid, built during the Third Dynasty. Another 16 Egyptian kings built pyramids at Saqqara, which are now in various states of preservation or dilapidation. High officials added private funeral monuments to this necropolis during the entire pharaonic period. It remained an important complex for non-royal burials and cult ceremonies for more than 3,000 years, well into Ptolemaic and Roman times.
