    The Pyramid of Cestius is a Roman tomb built between 18 and 12 BC in just 330 days. In fact, Gaius Cestius in his will had put this term on the heirs, under penalty of loss of the conspicuous inheritance.

    From a comparison with the pyramids of Egypt, built in stone or limestone, the pyramid of Cestius, built in concrete, manages to reach a greater height with the same amount of material used: concrete, in fact, allows a more acute construction angle. .
