The base, or bottom of pyramids was often square, which was a common feature of most constructed in antiquity. This may relate to the natural construction of early houses, which were typically round or square. The four sides were generally triangular because they tapered upward to a smaller size or apex. So a typical pyramid is a solid pentahedron with a square base and four triangular sides.
