Abstract:
There is a terminology declared that human learn from the past to reach a better future. Based on this comprehension, human start to learn about history. Scientists learn history from historical building and cultural heritage from the past. One of the most important building that we need to learn is pyramid. For quite a long time, many people do not know the fact that actually pyramid was only a fundamental form. Everytime people hear a word ‘pyramid’, they will think directly and know globally about Egyptian Pyramid. Actually, there were so many different forms of pyramid scattered around the world, from western to eastern countries. Besides Egypt, some countries that have been well-known about their pyramids are Mesopotamia, Egypt, Sudan, Nigeria, Greece, Spain, China, Mexico, North America, Italy, India and Indonesia. In this continuous part of research, article discusses Chinese and Mexican or Mesoamerican Pyramids as the Eastern and American continent cultural heritage. Hopefully, this research will enhance the knowledge about pyramids more specific and reader will be able to differentiate the function and form of each pyramids in the world.

Abstract:
Until the 18th century, the word “art” meant the product of the artisan (not the artist) and, by extension, also meant the product itself. Objects manufactured by craftsmen had, first of all, a useful function, although they might also have had a symbolic or aesthetic meaning. The concept of aesthetics is actually much older, considering the antiquity of Rome and Greece. And in Egypt, 3,500 years ago, at Saqqara, the first stone pyramid was engraved by scribes expressing their admiration for it.These artisans were famous for the quality of their work, for their genius in mastering their knowledge. One is reminded of Phidias in Athens, Michelangelo and Julius II, or Leonardo da Vinci and Francois the 1st.However, the social status of such artists was probably not very different from the status of other exceptional artisans in fields such as jewelry, metallurgy, clothing, music, etc. “Ĺart pour l'art,” a tenet which ignored the function of the object, arose only during the last century. In other words, almost all objects or artifacts in museums were originally devised and built to achieve a very specific and useful function.

Abstract:
Abstract Geophysical surveys were conducted in the Lahun area (Fayoum, Egypt). The Lahun area is known to have been the royal necropolis during the period of Senusret II (1897–1878 BC), where he built his pyramid. Integrated magnetic and gravity measurements were applied to investigate five locations in the area. The gravity survey was implemented in the areas where chambers, shafts, or cavity-like structures are expected, and magnetic survey was applied in the areas where mudbrick structures are expected. The magnetic survey was conducted using a Geoscan fluxgate gradiometer, whereas the gravity survey was conducted using a Scintrex CG-5 gravimeter. The geophysical survey successfully revealed anomalies that could be part of the trench between the Queen’s Pyramid and the Senusret II Pyramid, several pits in the eastern and southern sides of Senusret II Pyramid, two chambers that could be royal tombs, and the remains of three large mudbrick structures that could be ancient warehouses.
