Pyramid building involved changes in design across successive royal projects. Comparing stepped and smooth-sided forms makes that development visible. Look for what survives, what a model restores and what is still uncertain. A finished monument can hide the experiments that came before it. The museum introduction is a useful starting point; our generated scene does not show a verified construction sequence.
