After the 12th and 13th dynasties, pyramids went out of fashion. Many of the 13th dynasty rulers did not bother building one at all. Only a few were made by later dynasties. The last pyramid built was for the 18th dynasty pharaoh Ahmose I who died around 1525 B.C. It was a cheaply built affair a pale shadow of a pyramid compared with the Giza complex built a thousand years earlier. Today it is a pile of rubble barely 10 metres high.
