Fun History Fact, Originally the Great Pyramids were bright white with a shiny gold top. This was because they originally were built with an outer layer of highly polished limestone and a gold capstone on the Great Pyramid itself. Over time, the gold capstone was stolen and the limestone was pilfered by stone masons for building materials. -- source link
