Tangent: that's really cool that wikipedia has interactive graphics and not just static images. In fact, and maybe I'm stupid, but I had no idea that svgs could be interactive until this moment. I thought they were just a vector image format.
SVGs can contain CSS and Javascript, and even without that, you can make all kinds of animations completely in SVG markup, using SVG-SMIL. I'm just saying this as trivia, and emphatically do not recommend that you go down this collapsing rabbit-hole.
Ignore that the Wikipedia page currently calls it "a recommended means[1][2][3] of animating SVG-based hypermedia" (lol). It's a complex feature that browsers have been dragging along for years while nobody's using it. Though it seems that Chrome is finally taking the initiative of dropping support, or at least discouraging its use.
It is interactive. Hovering over different pyramids fills in the shape of just that pyramid, and you can interact with any of them by clicking on it to bring you to the Wikipedia article on it.
I too didn't realize that this was possible in SVGs. It's awesome.
I wish that image included La Danta at El Mirador in Guatemala. It is possibly the 2nd largest by volume after the one in Cholula. Although because neither are excavated, there seems to be disagreement on which is larger.
"A pyramid (from Greek: πυραμίς pyramis)[1][2] is a structure whose outer surfaces are triangular and converge to a single point at the top, making the shape roughly a pyramid in the geometric sense. The base of a pyramid can be trilateral, quadrilateral, or any polygon shape"
"In geometry, a pyramid is a polyhedron formed by connecting a polygonal base and a point, called the apex.
[...]
When unspecified, a pyramid is _usually_ assumed to be a regular square pyramid"
