Frequently asked
Why is the Bent Pyramid bent?
The pyramid's angle changes from 54 degrees to 43 degrees halfway up because ancient engineers discovered the original steep angle was too unstable. They reduced the angle mid-construction to prevent collapse, creating this unique bent appearance that makes it instantly recognizable among Egypt's pyramids.
Who was Pharaoh Sneferu?
Sneferu was the first pharaoh of Egypt's Fourth Dynasty and father of the famous Khufu, who built the Great Pyramid. He ruled around 2613-2589 BCE and commissioned multiple pyramids, making him one of history's greatest pyramid builders with three major pyramid projects.
