there are actually over 100 pyramids in Egypt, many of which are relatively unknown to anyone who is not an ancient Egypt enthusiast. All but a very few are grouped around and near the City of Cairo, just south of the Nile Delta. Otherwise, only one royal pyramid is known in southern Egypt (at Abydos), that being the one built by Ahmose, founder of the 18th Dynasty and Egypt's New Kingdom. It may have also been the last royal pyramid built in Egypt.

There are about eighty pyramids known today from ancient Egypt. The three largest and best-preserved of these were built at Giza at the beginning of the Old Kingdom. The most well-known of these pyramids was built for the pharaoh Khufu. It is known as the 'Great Pyramid'.

There are a great many outside of the three that are best known to tourists. Pyramids have also been found in other African nations besides Egypt, they have also been found in Mexico used by the Aztecs, and in Peru used by the Mayans.

the exact number is hard to determine the poor have crappier pyramids but then the Pharaohs and their wives all have pyramids of their own
