Erodoto
visited Egypt between 460 and 455 BC.
In his book “Stories” the word
pyramid is used for the first time.
The word was maybe used to indicate
a Greek sweet that recalled in its shape the great
pharaoh’s of the IV
dynasty, funeral monuments.
In the word maybe there still is the
reminiscence of the word “mer” that, according to a greatly diffused
opinion could derive from the verb “ias” that means to raise.
