over 110 or more
All of Egypt's pyramids are sited on the west bank of the Nile and most are grouped together in a number of pyramid fields.
The German Egyptologist Karl Richard Lepsius (1810-84) produced the first modern list of pyramids in 1842. He identified 67. A great many more have since been discovered, in November 2008 118 pyramids had been identified. The location of Pyramid 29 for example, the so-called "Headless Pyramid", was lost for a second time when the structure was buried by desert sands subsequent to Lepsius' survey. It was only rediscovered again during an archaeological dig conducted in 2008.
Many pyramids are in a poor state of preservation or buried by desert sands. If visible at all they may appear as little more than mounds of rubble. As archaeological techniques improve Egyptologists are continuing to identify and study previously unknown pyramid structures.
The most recent pyramid to be discovered is that of Queen Sesheshet, mother of 6th Dynasty Pharaoh Teti, located at Saqqara. The discovery was announced by the Egyptian Council of Antiquities, on 11 November 2008.
Ancient Mesopotamia is considered by many to be the cradle of civilization.
Many of the pyramids were built in the valley of the kings. West of the bank of the nile. West where the sun set.

Mesopotamia
GTAH!
I believe they are called Ziggurats.
it was mesopotamia
there made of stone like the pyramids andsphinx
The pyramids of Egypt were constructed using large and durable stones, while the ziggurats of Mesopotamia were made of mud bricks which are more susceptible to erosion and decay. Additionally, the dry climate of Egypt helped preserve the pyramids, whereas the wetter environment in Mesopotamia contributed to the disintegration of the ziggurats over time.
Pyramids were carved from stone, and Ziggurats were traditionally made with glazed bricks which apparently degraded more easily.
Mesopotamians built ziggurats which were structures that resembled step pyramids. These step pyramids could have up to seven levels or steps and had rectangular bases. The ziggurat was a temple used to honor their gods.
khijyjguytj ,l;nkltyjop] lkghnji695tuy'jkgnhj67iut h nbkltryhikth' There were two kinds of pyramids- step pyramids ( called Ziggurats in Mesopotamia, and step pyramids can be broken into more categories if you want to get technical) and the "true" pyramid, which have 4 straight sides.
thy were built by the slaves in Egypt they were made with mud and water
nothing much really!! it was Egypt that was good in mathematics since they built pyramids!!
I don't know exactly how many, but I know there are Egyptian pyramids, Aztec and Mayan pyramids, unfinished pyramids, and rock pyramids, and sand pyramids.
over 100 pyramids
A ziggurat is a type of artificial landmass. These were large structures or temples that were built in the ancient civilization of Mesopotamia. They were pyramids with terraces and their bottoms were flat.
