Written items offer students the opportunity to use their own judgment, writing styles, and vocabularies. They favor students who possess good writing skills and neatness and are pitfalls for students who tend to go off on tangents or misunderstand the main point of the question. Ziggurats were Mesopotamian temples made of mud brick. This is a start, but an answer like this will usually only receive partial credit. The ziggurats of the Mesopotamians have a different function and development than Egyptian pyramids.
Ziggurats are in essence mud-brick mountains or platforms for the most important temples.
They are a meeting place between the heavens and earth. The top of the pyramid is not a place to be reached physically - it is more about a mental journey or connection. The Rosetta Stone was found in Egypt and helped decipher hieroglyphics. Again this answer is pretty skimpy, but it would receive some credit. Before about 1800, attempts at trying to understand Egyptian hieroglyphics found on walls inside numerous tombs was useless.
