pyramid
Triangular-faced monument
A pyramid is a structure with a square or triangular base and sloping sides that meet at a point.
The most famous are the ancient Egyptian tombs, massive stone monuments built for pharaohs.
The shape extends to any similar form: a pyramid of oranges, the food pyramid.
A pyramid scheme is a fraud where early investors profit from later ones' money until the structure collapses.
