Pyramids and the Sphinx Windows 7 Theme

As you might have imagined, Pyramids and the Sphinx Windows 7 Theme is dedicated to the Great Egyptian Pyramids and the Great Sphinx of Giza.
There are 138 pyramids discovered in Egypt till date though the most popular amongst them are the Pyramids of Giza on the outskirts of Cairo. The Giza pyramids also include the Great Pyramid of Giza which is the oldest of the seven wonders of the ancient world and the only one still intact.
The Great Giza Pyramids consist of the Great Pyramid of Giza (known as the Great Pyramid and the Pyramid of Cheops or Khufu), the somewhat smaller Pyramid of Khafre (or Chephren) a few hundred meters to the south-west, and the relatively modest-sized Pyramid of Menkaure (or Mykerinos) a few hundred meters further south-west.
The Great Sphinx of Giza lies on the east side of the complex, facing east and is the oldest known monumental sculpture, and is commonly believed to have been built by ancient Egyptians of the Old Kingdom in the reign of the pharaoh Khafra. Amongst other popular Egyptian pyramids away from the complex are the the Pyramid of Djoser (step pyramid), the Bent Pyramid and the Red Pyramids.
