The Nyoum Pyramids are a series of ancient Egyptian pyramids located in the city of Nyoum, about 100 kilometers south of Cairo. These pyramids are unique in that they are compound pyramids, meaning that they consist of multiple layers or levels stacked on top of each other.
The Nyoum Pyramids were built during the 12th Dynasty of the Middle Kingdom, around 1850 BC. They were constructed as tombs for the pharaohs and their consorts, and were designed to be grand and imposing structures that would serve as a lasting tribute to their power and wealth.
The compound nature of the Nyoum Pyramids is what sets them apart from other pyramids in Egypt. Each pyramid consists of several layers or levels, with each level being smaller than the one below it. This creates a stepped or terraced effect, which gives the pyramids a unique and striking appearance.
The Nyoum Pyramids were built using limestone blocks, which were quarried from nearby hills. The blocks were then transported to the construction site using sledges and rollers, and were carefully placed in position by teams of skilled workers.
The largest of the Nyoum Pyramids is the Pyramid of Senusret III,
