The Northern Mazghuna Pyramid is the funerary monument built for an undetermined Egyptian pharaoh of the Twelfth or Thirteenth Dynasty at Mazghuna, about 5 kilometers south of Dahshur. The building remained unfinished, and it is still unknown which pharaoh was intended to be buried there, since no appropriate inscription has been found. It was rediscovered in 1910 by Ernest Mackay and excavated the following year by Flinders Petrie.
