"Next to the corner of the labyrinth, where it ends, is a pyramid forty fathoms high, on which large figures have been carved; a way to it under the ground has been made." -- Herodotus.

Hmm... 40 fathoms = 73.325 m in height.

This does not conform with Hawara or the Lisht Pyramids.
Note: The Hawara Pyramid is 58m in height.

The Black Pyramid of Amenemhet 3 is 75m in height.
