The bent pyramid of Snefru is located about 40 km away from Cairo at the royal necropolis of Dahshur. It was built by the great pharaoh Snefru and it was actually the second pyramid built by him. Bent Pyramid appears a transitional form between smooth-sided and steep-sided pyramids. Because the original angle of inclination showed some steepness, the structure showed signs of instability during construction. This forced the builders to adopt a shallower angle to avert the structure’s collapse. It is sometimes called the Rhomboidal. Explore the entire info about the bent pyramid here:
