A pyramid.
Pyramids were built between the years c.2700 and 1550BC, a period known as the old and middle kingdoms. After 1550BC, the beggining of the "new kingdom", royal burial practices changed and the Pharaohs were buried in elaborate rock tombs in a desert valley located west of the royal capital Thebes. This is known as the valley of the kings.
