Place & context

History

Giza’s three principal pyramids were built for Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure during the Fourth Dynasty. Each belonged to a larger funerary complex: temples and causeways connected the royal monument to spaces for offerings and the care of the deceased king. Smaller pyramids and surrounding tombs extend the story beyond the three familiar silhouettes. The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities describes the temples as settings for the royal mortuary cult. Looking at the whole plateau helps place monumental architecture within the religious institutions that sustained it.
