View of the facade of the Pyramid of Hellinikon, near the city of Argos, Peloponnese, Greece. The Pyramid is made of grey limestone blocks and is believed to have been used as either as a memorial, or tomb, or observation tower or perhaps as a garrison. Archaeologists are unsure on its date of construction and various opinions give its construction sometime between 2700 BC to the 400 BC.
