The social classes of ancient Egypt are often illustrated with the shape of a pyramid (a 3-dimensional triangle) because ancient Egypt is closely associated with pyramids and because it is convenient to describe the class arrangement using a triangular figure - lots of people on the bottom, fewer in the middle ranks, very few on top, and the Pharaoh at the very peak.
