Mazghuna also known as Al Mazghunah or Al Muzghumah , 5 km to the south of Dahshur coordinates coord 29 45 0 N 31 14 0 E type landmark , is the site of several mudbrick pyramid s dating from the Twelfth dynasty of Egypt 12th Dynasty . The area was explored by Ernest Mackay in 1910, and was excavated by Flinders Petrie in 1911. Amenemhet IV and Sobekneferu have been suggested as the owners of 2 unfinished pyramids at Mazghuna but there is no conclusive evidence of this. The southern pyramid is about 3 miles from Sneferu s bent pyramid. The base was 52.5 meters square but it was never finished. The outer burial chamber contains an inner monolithic burial vault made out of quartzite like the one for Amenemhet III at Hawara. There was a large granite plug ready to slide over the top however it was never used since no one was ever buried there. There was a second pyramid planned at north Mazghuna even larger than this one but the superstructure was never begun. There was a U shaped passage leading to the burial chamber which contains another monolithic burial vault. There was scarcely 2 cm less than 1 inch clearance between the vault and the chamber. There was a 42 ton quartzite slab waiting to be slid over the burial chamber. ref Lehner, Mark The Complete Pyramids, London Thames and Hudson 1997 p.184 5 ISBN 0 500 05084 8. ref In fiction The Amelia Peabody series Amelia Peabody mystery The Mummy Case by Elizabeth Peters was set in Mazghuna.

Infobox Egyptian pyramid Name White Pyramid Type Pyramid True pyramid ruined Owner Amenemhat II Located in the pyramid field at Dahshur , the White Pyramid of Amenemhat II is now nothing more than a pile of rubble , having been heavily quarried for stone. The remaining limestone rubble has given rise to its modern name. The pyramid is surrounded by a large rectangular enclosure wall. A number of intact tombs were found inside this enclosure wall belogning to the relatives of Amenemhat II including the tombs of prince Amenemhetankh and princesses Ita, Khnumet, Itiueret and Sithathormeret. A wide variety of funerary furniture was recovered from these tombs including wooden coffins, alabaster perfume jars, and canopic chests. There was also a large quantity of beautiful jewellery in the tombs of Ita and Khnumet. In 1894 and 1895 Jaques de Morgan dug in the pyramid complex, concentrating on the surrounding royal graves, with other areas not being explored, a full scale investigation of the whole complex has yet to be undertaken.
