It was created for King Chephren, alongside the Valley Temple where the mummification process was carried out for the king's body. The mummification process was necessary for preserving the king's body for the afterlife and ensuring his resurrection, which was crucial for the stability of the universe. This divine process was an integral part of the funeral rituals, as explained by numerous Egyptologists.
