The Ancient World
The three most famous pyramids at Giza are seen in a line, overlooking Cairo in the background. To the left is the Great Pyramid of Cheops, in the center is the Pyramid of Chephren, and the smallest pyramid to the right is the Pyramid of Mycerinus. A queen's pyramid is visible to the far right. The pyramids and Giza stand on the west bank of the Nile, which was historically the side occuped by the dead. Cairo is in the East -- the bank of life. © Rick Collier
