Most Egyptologists accept that the pyramids were all built by members of one family; 4th dynasty rulers. Khufu built the first of the pyramids, the Great Pyramid, his son Kafre built a second one (as well as possibly the Spinx), and Kafre's son Menkaure built the third. There are more esoteric theories that space aliens built the pyramids, or that survivors of the doomed Mediterranean civilization of Atlantis built them. However, these theories are largely rejected, and have the added disadvantage of being largely motivated by prejudice, and the accompanying belief that an ancient African civilization could not possibly be responsible for building one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
