Top: Arts: Architecture: Building_Types: Pyramids

There is a lot of controversy about the function and the construction of the pyramids. This category is for sites which offer a rational approach to the question.

Pyramids are stone structures with a square base and sloping sides meeting at the apex. In ancient Egypt they were built as burial monuments. They are usually very large monolithic structures with only a few small rooms.
