Pyramid G1-d, Subsidiary pyramid in Giza Necropolis, Egypt

The pyramid stands 13.8 meters tall with a base length of 21.75 meters, featuring smooth limestone sides and an inclined passage leading to a chamber.

Discovered in 1992 during road construction, this Fourth Dynasty pyramid from 2600 BC sits 25 meters east-southeast of the Great Pyramid of Giza.

The structure contains ancient inscriptions in red paint providing instructions for stone placement, reflecting Egyptian construction methods and organizational systems.

Visitors can reach the pyramid through the eastern section of the Giza archaeological site, where it stands among other satellite structures of the complex.

The pyramid's T-shaped chamber includes four small holes at its western end, potentially designed to support wooden beams for ceremonial purposes.
