Bent Pyramid

Bent Pyramid, or as it is called - "cut off" and "diamond-shaped", has received a response from an atypical form of the structure and the wrong angle faces. Perhaps it was a failed attempt at building or searching for the ideal shape. In addition, the Bent Pyramid - the only one in the Egyptian Old Kingdom, which has two entrances. By tradition, the tomb was located on the north side. In the Bent Pyramid is a sign and a Western one. 

The pyramid was built during the reign of Pharaoh Sneferu. However, the archaeological research of the two rooms inside the pyramid did not find even a trace of the sarcophagus. 

At a distance of 50 meters from the Bent pyramid is a pyramid-satellite or a small pyramid. It has an interesting feature - its walls are clearly visible red lines of unknown breed. The eastern side of the Bent Pyramid are the remains of the temple. In the place were discovered 9-meter high stele destroyed, one of which can be seen in the Cairo Museum.
