The oldest Egyptian pyramid is the Pyramid of Djoser. It was built in the 3rd Dynasty - planned by Imhotep as a solution to previous Pharaoh burial sites being robbed by thieves. Pyramids would offer better protection to the dead Pharaohs as they had a maze-like structure, dead-ends, booby traps and secret rooms. They even added the extra touch of trying to scare people away by placing "curses" on those who disturb them.
A stepped pyramid was built, then rough limestone facing stones were added, then the facing stones were carefully chiseled to form smooth faces.

The stepped Pyramid of Djoser was built as a series of six mastabas, or flat-roofed rectangular structures, stacked on top of one another to create a stepped effect. It was constructed using limestone and had a height of about 200 feet (60 meters). Over time, it was eventually enclosed within a larger pyramid complex.

The Pyramid of Hellinikon is the largest acropolis in Greece and is sometimes referred to as the "Greek Pyramid". However, it is not a true pyramid but rather a stepped structure built by the Hellenistic civilization.
It is. All sides of a geometric pyramid are flat - even stepped pyramids.
