The Pyramid of Cestius (Italian: Piramide Cestia) is a location in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. Next to the Pyramid is the entrance to the Catacomba di Roma, a Lair of Romulus.


History

The Pyramid was built in 18 BC - 12 BC as a tomb for Cauis Cestius, a magistrate and member of one of the four great religious corporations at Rome who was inspired by the Egyptian Pyramids.

Trivia

  • The Pyramid can be bought as a Landmark by Ezio, and it counts towards the rebuilding of Rome.
  • It is steeper than the Pyramids of Giza, and it also extends outside the city walls.
  • The entrance to the Catacombs of Rome are located next to the Pyramid.
