Annotations: The period of Pyramid building seems to have been from the IVth to XII Dynasty a period of about two thousand years. The Pyramid seemed to have faded out in the XII dynasty and was succeeded by the rock tomb and the mortuary temple. Only two, Sakhara and Medum, are supposed to be earlier than the great Pyramid of Cheops. The Pyramid was never a family monument but belonged like other Egyptian tombs to one person, the other members of a royal family having small pyramids near that of the king. There are several near that of Cheops.
