pyramids (tombs or platforms) (<tombs by form>, tombs, ... Built Environment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Monumental structures with a square or triangular base and inclined triangular sides, usually meeting at a point. The most famous pyramids are those used as mausolea in ancient Egypt; they were focal points of much larger funerary complexes. However, pyramids, usually with flat tops, are also found in Central America, where they were used as platforms for altars or temples, occasionally also covering the burial chamber of a ruler.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 具有正方形或三角形基底，且其傾斜的三角形側面最後交集於一點的紀念性建築，其中以作為陵寢用的古埃及金字塔最為知名，是大型葬墓綜合建築的焦點。但在中美洲也可見頂端平坦的金字塔，為作為祭壇或寺廟的平台，有時則包含統治者的墓室。 |
