Overview

The Saqqara Step Pyramid, Bent Pyramid, and Red Pyramid represent a fascinating journey through the evolution of pyramid construction in ancient Egypt. The Step Pyramid at Saqqara, built for Pharaoh Djoser, marks a significant breakthrough as the first large-scale stone structure, demonstrating a gradual progression towards the iconic smooth-sided pyramids. The Bent Pyramid at Dahshur showcases an early experiment in true pyramid building, with its distinctive change in angle mid-construction, highlighting the challenges and ingenuity of ancient Egyptian engineers. Finally, the Red Pyramid, also at Dahshur, represents a successful culmination of these efforts, showcasing a true pyramid form and marking a significant milestone in ancient Egyptian architecture and engineering.
