The Israelites, therefore, had a profound influence on Egypt having designed the first pyramid (in the third dynasty) and having provided slave labour for various public works which included making mudbricks for the construction of the last of the great pyramids (those of the 12th dynasty). The country was destabilised when Moses (Amenemhet IV) went into exile as there was nobody to continue the 12th dynasty. Egypt suffered massive losses 40 years later as a result of the Exodus at the end of the 13th dynasty (1446BC) and as a result became vulnerable to invasion. The Hyksos took over and ruled Egypt for the next 400 yrs (the second intermediate period). | The Israelites, therefore, had a profound influence on Egypt having designed the first pyramid (in the third dynasty) and having provided slave labour for various public works which included making mudbricks for the construction of the last of the great pyramids (those of the 12th dynasty).

When the Israelites departed from Egypt in the 13th dynasty, lead by Moses ([[Amenemhet IV]]), there were not enough slaves in Egypt to make construct pyramids any more. The Pyramid Age, therefore, coincides with [[Sojourn of Israel in Egypt|Israel's sojourn in Egypt]]. The Pyramids were thus constructed over a period of around 400 years and no more large pyramids were built after Moses ([[Amenemhet IV]]) lead the Israelites out of Egypt in 1446BC. | ||
