Pyramid
Ancient Egyptian monument
A pyramid is a structure with a square or triangular base and sloping sides that meet at a point.
The ancient Egyptian pyramids are monumental stone tombs.
The shape extends to anything similarly tapered: a pyramid of oranges, a food pyramid.
A pyramid scheme is a fraud where early investors profit from later ones' money until the structure collapses.
To pyramid is to build up progressively: pyramid your winnings.
