Dahshur

The Blunted Pyramid of King Snefru at Dahshur, Egypt.

(credit: H. Roger-Viollet)

Ancient pyramid site, northern Egypt. It is located near Memphis on the western bank of the Nile. Two of its pyramids date from the 4th dynasty and were built by Snefru (r. 2575–2551 BC); the smaller is believed to be the first true pyramid. The three remaining pyramids belong to the 12th dynasty (1938–1756 BC). Nearby tombs have yielded a remarkable collection of jewelry and personal accoutrements.
