Southern Mazghuna Pyramid

Monuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures

The Southern Mazghuna Pyramid is an ancient Egyptian royal tomb built during the Twelfth or Thirteenth Dynasty at Mazghuna, about 5 kilometers south of Dahshur in Egypt. The building was never finished, and it remains unknown which pharaoh it was built for, since no identifying inscription has been found. It was rediscovered in 1910 by Ernest Mackay and excavated the following year by Flinders Petrie.

Pyramid, Concepts

Entity-backed identity for the building-type enum value this building already carries, resolved to an architecture concept by an explicit value-to-entity map (phase 3 bucket conversion, docs\design_entity_backed_browse_buckets_20260928.md). The building-type fact itself stays on the building unchanged.
