Snefru

Snefru, also spelled Snefru or Snofru, was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh of the Fourth Dynasty during the Old Kingdom period, around the 26th century BCE. He is known for his significant contributions to the development of pyramid construction and is often credited with the transition from step-sided to true smooth-sided pyramids. Snefru built at least two major pyramids: the Bent Pyramid and the Red Pyramid, both located at Dahshur.
