The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World is a list of remarkable constructions of classical antiquity built in ancient times.
History[]
Early History[]
In around 2570 BC, the Golden Capstone on the Great Pyramid's tip served its purpose to act as a focus point for the energy from the Tartarus sunspot to unleash its energy.
Over the next two thousand years, four more of the Ancient Wonders would be constructed; the Hanging Gardens of Babylon; the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus; the Statue of Zeus at Olympia; and the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus.
For reasons unknown, perhaps knowing that it was not the true time for the first trial of the Super-Ancient Beings to be completed, the Egyptians chose to disassemble the Capstone into its seven component Pieces. Alexander the Great oversaw the disassembly, and then arranged for each of the Pieces to be hidden by priests of the Cult of Amun Ra within the constructs that would later become known as the seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The Wonders that were already in existence would be slightly modified to accommodate a hiding place for the Capstone Piece assigned to it.
In the years following Alexander's death, two more Wonders would be constructed; the Lighthouse of Alexandria (which was made in Alexander's honour) and the Colossus of Rhodes, with which they were made to hide the remaining Pieces of the Capstone.
Unfortunately, most of the Wonders would eventually fall, usually due to natural disasters or intentional destruction. When each of the five Wonders that fell appeared to be set to be forever lost, agents of the Egyptian Pharaohs such as Priests from the Cult of Amun Ra would usually intervene and spirit the Capstone Piece away to be hidden elsewhere, occasionally taking a part of the Wonder with them.
Of the Seven Wonders, only two would remain intact until the present day; the Great Pyramid, (which, ironically had been the first Wonder built); and the Hanging Gardens, however so sign of the Gardens would be found by historians, leading most to conclude that they had never existed.

Purpose[]
The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World were all built with the secret intention of hiding the Pieces of the Golden Capstone, though this was their only shared function. Each Wonder did serve its own purpose, usually either as a tomb for a great ruler or a memorial for a god.

The Great Pyramid of Giza[]
The Great Pyramid of Giza, otherwise known as the Pyramid of Khufu or more simply the Great Pyramid, is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one to remain largely intact until the present day.
Its tip was once comprised of the Golden Capstone, until it was disassembled and scattered following the Tartarus sunspot alignment event of 2570 BC. Once the Great Pyramid's purpose in this event had been fulfilled, it was altered so that is would serve as Khufu's tomb. During 2006, the scattered pieces of the Capstone were gathered up and reassembled before being re-integrated on the Pyramid's summit to avert the next Tartarus rotation. After the Capstone had once again served its purpose, it was removed from the Great Pyramid again.
