Not nearly! There are two other, similar, pyramids right next to it! As of 2008, there are a total of 138 Pyramids in Egypt, including the main three. In addition, there are a lot of Pyramids in Nubia (Numbering 220, there are more than in Egypt), although they look a bit different (They are much smaller, and taller for their size than the ones at Giza.) Although those are the two major Pyramid-building cultures, many cultures built some sorts of Pyramids. The Greeks and the Romans both built a few Pyramids. And, of course, there's the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas :). However, there is another form of structure built in the ancient world similar to a Pyramid. These are called Ziggurats, although they are sometimes also referred to as Pyramids. The main builders of Ziggurats were the Sumerians and the Mayans, but you can find Ziggurats ANYWHERE if you look hard enough. They appear in Spain, Nigeria, Indonesia, China, India, With a sufficiently loose definition North America, and Peru.
