In the mid-2000s B.C., the ancient Egyptians built the biggest and grandest of the pyramids-the Great Pyramid. It lies about 10 miles from the modern city of Cairo and was built for King Khufu, the Great Pyramid is one of the three pyramids still standing to this day at Giza on the Nile's west bank. It is about the height of a 48 story building and extends over an area equal to 9 football fields. More than 2 million stone blocks were used in the pyramid's construction, each weighing an average of 2.5 tons and for more than 4000 years, the Great Pyramid stood as the tallest structure in the entire world. I don't really know who built it, but I hope this info helps.

Answer B:

You have already answered in your question the 4th dynasty Pharaoh Khufu (also known as Cheops) who reigned 23 years between 2589 and 2566 bce. Not that he did any of the work himself. The architects, scribes, craftspeople and thousands of slaves did the actual work.
