If a category has pullbacks in a category, each slice category is finitely complete. The identity of the base object is terminal in the slice. Ambient pullbacks in a category inherit a unique common structure map to the base and satisfy the same universal property over that base. A terminal object and pullbacks in a category construct finite products in a category and equalizers, hence all finite limits.
