• Red Pyramid - The Red Pyramid, also known as the North Pyramid, is the largest pyramid at the Dahshur necropolis in Cairo, Egypt. It is named for the reddish hue of its red limestone stones and is the third largest Egyptian pyramid, following those of Khufu and Khafre at Giza. It is considered Egypt’s first successful “true” smooth-sided pyramid. Locals call it el-heram el-watwaat, meaning the Bat Pyramid.

Originally, the Red Pyramid was not red. It was covered with white Tura limestone, but only a few of these stones remain at the base, at the corners. During the Middle Ages, much of the white Tura limestone was removed for construction in Cairo, exposing the red limestone beneath.

• Pyramids of Giza - The Giza pyramid complex, also known as the Giza necropolis, in Egypt includes the Great Pyramid, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure, along with their associated complexes and the Great Sphinx. These were constructed during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom of ancient Egypt, around 2600 – 2500 BC. The site also features several temples, cemeteries, and the remains of a workers’ village.

Located at the edge of the Western Desert, about 9 km (5.6 mi) west of the Nile River in Giza, and approximately 13 km (8.1 mi) southwest of Cairo’s city center, it forms the northernmost part of the 16,000 ha (160 km2; 62 sq mi) Pyramid Fields of the Memphis and its Necropolis UNESCO World Heritage Site, designated in 1979. The pyramid fields include the Abusir, Saqqara, and Dahshur pyramid complexes, all built near Egypt’s ancient capital, Memphis.

• Memphis and Sakkara - Memphis (Arabic: مَنْف, romanized: Manf, pronounced [mænf]; Bohairic Coptic: ⲙⲉⲙϥⲓ; Greek: Μέμφις), or Men-nefer, was the ancient capital of Inebu-hedj, the first nome of Lower Egypt known as mḥw (“North”). Its ruins are near the present-day village of Mit Rahina (Arabic: ميت رهينة), in the Badrashin county, Giza, Egypt. This modern name likely derives from the late Ancient Egyptian name for Memphis mjt-rhnt, meaning “Road of the Ram-Headed Sphinxes.”

Alongside the pyramid fields that extend over a desert plateau for more than 30 kilometers (19 mi) to its west, including the renowned Pyramids of Giza, Memphis and its necropolis are listed as a World Heritage Site. The site is accessible to the public as an open-air museum.

According to legends recounted in the early third century BC by Manetho, a priest and historian from the Ptolemaic Kingdom during the Hellenistic period of ancient Egypt, the city was founded by King Menes.

• Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids - Saqqara (Arabic: سقارة, Egyptian Arabic pronunciation: [sɑʔːɑːɾɑ]), also spelled Sakkara or Saccara in English /səˈkɑːrə/, is an Egyptian village in the Badrashin county of the Giza Governorate, containing ancient burial grounds of Egyptian royalty, serving as the necropolis for the ancient Egyptian capital, Memphis. Saqqara is home to numerous pyramids, including the Pyramid of Djoser, sometimes called the Step Tomb, and several mastaba tombs. Situated about 30 km (19 mi) south of modern Cairo, Saqqara spans an area of approximately 7 by 1.5 km (4.3 by 0.9 mi).

Saqqara houses the oldest complete stone building complex known in history, the Pyramid of Djoser, constructed during the Third Dynasty. Another sixteen Egyptian kings built pyramids at Saqqara, which are now in various states of preservation. High officials added private funeral monuments to this necropolis throughout the entire Pharaonic period. It remained a significant complex for non-royal burials.

• Great Sphinx of Giza - The term sphinx originates from the Greek Σφίγξ, linked by folk etymology to the verb σφίγγω (sphíngō), meaning “to squeeze” or “to tighten up.” This name might stem from the way lions kill their prey by strangulation, biting the throat and holding them down until they perish. However, historian Susan Wise Bauer suggests that “sphinx” was a Greek adaptation of the Egyptian name “shesepankh,” meaning “living image,” referring to the statue of the sphinx, carved from “living rock” (rock that remains part of the Earth’s stony body, shaped but not detached from its original source), rather than the creature itself.
