Buddy, the pyramids are literally covered in written records. 's what heiroglyphs are.

From the very first google result

Contrary to what one might expect, there are no hieroglyphic texts, treasures, or mummies in any of pyramids of Giza. Decoration inside pyramids began several centuries after those of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure were constructed

While lacking the panache of Abu Simbel or Karnak, there were written records in the Great pyramids. Mostly work graffiti and seals, as far as I can learn, but that would count.

Good to learn about the decorative drive growing as the Kingdoms aged, though.
