Media Image

Look at this picture of a pyramid. Do you think it was built before or after the Great Pyramids of Giza?

before

after

Answer explanation

The text says:
The structure of the pyramids evolved slowly. They went from platforms stacked on an underground tomb, to larger step-style structures, to the massive smooth-sided pyramids found at Giza.

This is the Pyramid of Djoser. Built around 2630 BC, the Pyramid of Djoser is the world's oldest and most iconic pyramid. Located in Saqqara, Egypt, it was built for the Pharaoh Djoser and is the first known pyramid of its kind.
