In the Egyptian language, the Pyramid of Menkaure was referred to as "Netjer-er-Menkaure," or "Menkaure is divine." This refers to the king for whom this pyramid was constructed to serve as a tomb for his afterlife.He is the builder of the third greatest pyramid in the Giza Necropolis, which ended a great era of architectural magnificence. The Pharaoh is considered to be the son of King Chephren and Queen Khamernebti I. He got married young to his sister, who had become the future queen, Khamernebti II. She bore him a son called Khunre, who probably died at a very young age.

Menkaure was the king who built the third pyramid; in ancient Egyptian, "Netjer-er-Menkaure," "Menkaure is Divine," is what this king's pyramid was referred to in the ancient Egyptian tongue. It is also the termination point in monumental constructions at Giza for a pyramid meant as an afterlife tomb. Menkaure, also called Mycerinus, was born of King Khafra and Queen Khamernebti I. He married Khamernebti II, who became a queen after having a son who was named Khunre and who likely died young. His other son was called Shepseskaf, who succeeded him, and one daughter, Khentkaus I, who probably married Userkaf, the first king of the Fifth Dynasty. No predecessor of Menkaure had ever been rated as wise and benevolent king by the populace, and as such his pyramid was not of much greater size.

However, one could say that the scaling down probably had no solid reason backing it; rather, speculations from a few commentators could turn the economy over it, or that some changed religious ideas that increasingly put funerary temples above erectile pyramids, or even too rigid as the Giza Plateau started to get crowded. The pyramid remained incomplete on the death of Menkaure, as it was finalized under Shepseskaf; the upper part was clad in fine limestone while the lower portion remained harsh granite.
