In honour of the Pharaohs: Khufu (the Great Pyramid), Khafre (the 2nd pyramid), and Menkure (the smaller 3rd pyramid).

The 2nd pyramid looks taller than the Great Pyramid because it is build on higher ground. It is also distinguishable by the fact that it still has some of its outer case at the top.
