Ancient Alpha Pyramid, or Alpha Pyramid, is a historic landmark made by BPrieur, a.k.a Brent, the brother-in-law of The Shire's creator, Ctshiner. BPrieur, who was unknowing of Minecraft game commands, made the pyramid in November 2010 near Spawn to dispose his mined cobblestone. In 2017, Nebbers relocated the pyramid to Cactus County Region.
Location
The pyramid was originally situated near Spawn, with its center at x, z coordinates -155, 350. Server-wise, the original-location pyramid is still accessible through the Yestershire dimension, which can be accessed southwest of "/warp yestershire". Nebbers relocated the pyramid in November 2017 to the eastern part of The Shire; specifically Cactus County Region, somewhere between Palustris and Karya Kelana Inc. Headquarters as of 2025. Meanwhile, the original location is occupied by Alpha Arboretum in Schaufensterpuppen. To mark the pyramid's history, a pyramid-shaped Shire Historical Marker was placed on what was once its northeast corner, with x, z coordinates -110, 307.
Structure
Original
The pyramid is around 60 blocks high and around 112-114 blocks long on its sides. It is situated fully above a body of water and can be accessed through several entries. Two minecart rail access are present on the pyramid's east and west. However, the western access is damaged due to a cannon shooting. Some holes on the pyramid's floors towards the water body are also present. The pyramid also has a hole on its peak. The pyramid's exterior corners are lined with torches, while the interiors are mostly empty and has grass blocks as its floor. However, torches and glowstones are scattered around its grass floor, and there is a small maze on its interior's northeast corner.
