There are 2 different types of pyramids: the step pyramid, and the true pyramid.
There are about three types of pyramids in Ancient Egypt: "True" pyramid- The typical pyramid, with smooth sides and hard edges(the pyramids you would imagine) Bent pyramid- Very smooth and has curved sides(obviously looks bent!) Stepped Pyramid- Has many steps to the top(it's a STEP pyramid!)
The pyramid built after the Step Pyramid of Djoser is the Bent Pyramid, constructed during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom in Egypt. Commissioned by Pharaoh Sneferu, it features a unique design with a change in angle partway up, giving it a bent appearance. The Bent Pyramid is significant as it represents a key evolution in pyramid construction techniques, transitioning from the step design to a true smooth-sided pyramid.
Pharaoh Djoser's is the oldest known pyramid.
The pyramid of Pharaoh Djoser dates from about 2,630 B.C. and is a 'step pyramid'. The great Pyramid of Giza - Pharaoh Khufu - dates from about 2,550 B.C. and is a true pyramid, that is, smooth sided. The Pyramid of Djoser was Egypt's first pyramid.
A true pyramid is a pyramid with a point on the end and very straight structure
The creation of the pyramids were from the orders of King Sneferu and they had two failed pyramid construction before the third was built perfectly which was called the Red pyramid (first true pyramid). The first pyramid that was built was the Medium and the second was called Bent pyramid.

The oldest Step Pyramid in Egypt is that of King Djoser of the Old Kingdoms 3rd Dynasty, built 4,600 years ago. The oldest true pyramid was built for King Sneferu during the 4th Dynasty of the Old Kingdom.
