Answer 1

The pyramid at Saqqara, specifically the Step Pyramid of Djoser, is different from the pyramids at Giza in the following ways:

• It is a step pyramid.

Therefore, the correct answer is: It is a step pyramid.

To clarify the other options:

• The Step Pyramid is not larger than the pyramids at Giza.
• It was built earlier than the pyramids at Giza, not later.
• It was indeed built during the Old Kingdom, but this is not a distinguishing feature when comparing it solely to the pyramids at Giza, as those were also built during the Old Kingdom.
