For more than 40 centuries, it was the highest monument built by man at 146 m high. Khafre: the Pyramid of Khafre looks taller than Giza, but in reality, it is slightly smaller. The tilt angle is more emphasised, and it sits on slightly higher ground which is what creates this impression. Menkaure: The tomb of King MenkauIt. At a height of 66 m, it is much smaller than the other two pyramids. The Sphinx: A lion's body with a Pharaoh's head. Its role was to guard the entrance of the tomb against pillagers.
