Human: when were the pyramids built and where are they located?

Assistant: The first Egyptian pyramids were built around 2620 BC during the reign of the Pharaoh Khufu, or ‘Cheops,’ as he is known in Greek. These pyramids can be found at Giza, a suburb of Cairo in Egypt. While most of Egypt was desert at that time, the area surrounding the settlement of Memphis was incredibly fertile. The location by the banks of the Nile River made it prime real estate from a strategic standpoint, meaning it was a desirable location for the pharaoh, and one which was heavily fortified.
