The Pyramid
of Menkaure
The Pyramid
of Menkaure, also known as Mycerinus, is the smallest of the
three pyramids at Giza. It was bugun during the Pharoah's rule
(2490-2472 BC) and completed by his son, Shepsekaf. This pyramid
is unique because it was to be fully encased in granite. The
granite encasement was never finished due to the Pharoah's untimely
death.
