Pyramid

A pyramid (from Ancient Greek πυραμίς (puramís) 'pyramid',[1][2] from the Egyptian pir-em-us, the vertical height of the structure.[3]) is a structure whose visible surfaces are triangular in broad outline and converge toward the top, making the appearance roughly a pyramid in the geometric sense. The base of a pyramid can be of any polygon shape, such as triangular or quadrilateral, and its surface-lines either filled or stepped. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramid

• A ziggurat (/ˈzɪɡʊˌræt/; Cuneiform: 𒅆𒂍𒉪, Akkadian: ziqqurratum,[2] D-stem of zaqārum 'to protrude, to build high',[3] cognate with other Semitic languages like Hebrew zaqar (זָקַר) 'protrude'[4][5]) is a type of massive structure built in ancient Mesopotamia and Iran. It has the form of a terraced compound of successively receding stories or levels. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ziggurat

The Pyramid authors believe that the MVC pattern just doesn’t really fit the web very well. In a Pyramid application, there is a resource tree, which represents the site structure, and views, which tend to present the data stored in the resource tree and a user-defined “domain model”. However, no facility provided by the framework actually necessarily maps to the concept of a “controller” or “model”. So if you had to give it some acronym, I guess you’d say Pyramid is actually an “RV” framework rather than an “MVC” framework. “MVC”, however, is close enough as a general classification moniker for purposes of comparison with other web frameworks.
