I like the history of it, and it was not crowded.

It looks like a bile of rocks but it’s actually a pyramid, although it don’t look like a one

The pyramid was originally about 75 metres tall with a base 105 metres long and an incline of 57°. Typical for pyramids of the Middle Kingdom, the Black Pyramid, although encased in limestone, is made of mud brick and clay instead of stone. The ground-level structures consist of the entrance opening into the courtyard and mortuary temple, surrounded by walls. There are two sets of walls; between them, there are ten shaft tombs, which are a type of burial structure formed from graves built into natural rock. The pyramidion, which is the capstone of a pyramid, was covered with inscriptions and religious symbols. Some of these were scratched off, leading researchers to conclude the pyramidion was never used or it was defaced during Akhenatens rule.Below ground level in the subterranean structure lay a network of complicated passages. The kings section remains mostly intact with a sarcophagus and canopic jar; however, the king was not buried there. The section for the queens was broken into and looted. There are four other burial chambers in the subterranean structure; to whom they belong, however, is unknown. Two are thought to belong to King Amenemhet IV and queen Sobekneferu.The Dashur pyramid was on an east–west orientation with two entrances and a complicated set of chambers. One entrance is on the south-eastern corner and the other on the south-western.The core of the superstructure was of mud brick with no internal walls, possibly to keep the weight to the minimum considering how close the pyramid was to the Nile. The pyramid was built on clay that was unable to support the weight and began to sink, just as the Bent Pyramid of Sneferu at Dashur had begun to sink centuries before. The two pyramids are approximately 1.5 km apart.The outer cladding of limestone veneer was held together with dovetail pegs, following the style of his fathers tomb. The finished dimensions were approximately 200 cubits per side and 150 cubits high.The pyramid was abandoned after it began to crush the underground chambers. The builders had hastily installed supporting beams and mud brick walls to stop the sinking, but it was too little, too late, and the pyramid was abandoned. The Kings section contained a burial chamber containing a large sarcophagus that was carved to imitate the outer wall of Djosers Pyramid complex at Saqqara, possibly another attempt to reinforce the legitimacy of his rule.Burial chambers for two of his queens were created beneath the pyramid; the first chamber of the Queens section under the south-western quadrant of the pyramid was for Queen Aat and the second chamber was for an unnamed queen. Although both chambers had been entered and looted in antiquity, archaeologists found many items overlooked by the looters, including one of Queen Aats canopic jars.Queen Aats chamber contained a sarcophagus similar to the kings. The causeway was unusually wide with a large open area. There were houses on the northern side of the causeway that have been identified as priests houses.By the 13th dynasty, the lack of security meant that locals had usurped the Valley Temple to be used as a granary and the first breach of the pyramid happened at about that time. There is evidence of restoration work perhaps 100 years later, when King Auibre Hor and his princess Nubhetepti-khered were buried in two of the ten shaft tombs on the northern side of the outer enclosure.[

This pyramid doesnt have a classic shape but it makes it even more interesting to discover.

We saw it 03/03/2017 and it was awesome, The Black Pyramid was built by King Amenemhat III during the Middle Kingdom of Egypt.

Wow

The Black Pyramid was built by King Amenemhat III during the Middle Kingdom of Egypt . It is one of the five remaining pyramids of the original eleven pyramids at Dahshur in Egypt. Originally named Amenemhet is Mighty, the pyramid earned the name Black Pyramid for its dark, decaying appearance as a rubble mound. The Black Pyramid was the first to house both the deceased pharaoh and his queens. Jacques de Morgan, on a French mission, began the excavation on the pyramids at Dahshur in 1892. The German Archaeological Institute of Cairo completed excavation in 1983.

(The Black Pyramid in Egypt)We travel through time through our page in the year 2055 BC.Pyramid of King Amenemhat III in DahshurThe secret of the empty black pyramid in DahshurThe Black Pyramid is one of five remaining out of the eleven pyramids built in Dahshur.The city of Dahshur is famous for the presence of many pyramids, including two of the oldest, largest and best preserved pyramids in Egypt, namely the bent or bent pyramid, and the Red Pyramid, as they were built in the period from 2613 BC to 2589 BC in Egypt.The third of these pyramids was ordered by King Amenemhat III, the era of the Middle Kingdom from 2055 BC to 1650 BC.The Black Pyramid got this nickname because of its dark color and decaying and dilapidated structureAnd the black pyramid is not as famous as the leaning and red pyramids, because of its closure to tourists due to its poor state of preservation and for fear of collapses inside it. The black pyramid was the first to house both the deceased pharaoh and the queens.The pyramid was originally 75 meters high, its base was 105 meters long, and it tilted at an angle of 57 degrees.The base was built of mud bricks, covered with mortar on the outside, then the remaining courses of white limestone.The top of the pyramid was covered with inscriptions and religious symbols, and the pyramid contains many corridors, and rooms, were for two queens in addition to the king.The pyramid has two entrances at the southern end of the eastern and western sides, followed by stairs leading to the interior.Amer pointed out that when the construction was about to be completed, the engineers of King Amenemhat III realized that problems had arisen in the structure of the pyramid.The pyramid began to fall on its own, so the workers quickly reinforced the construction with mud bricks and bundles of cedar trees, and for this reason the king was not buried there, and King Amenemhat III chose the site of Hawara south of Cairo in the Fayoum region, to be the site of his new funeral pyramid.Text and image by Shady Lunnhas

The Black Pyramid was the first tomb intended for both Pharaoh and his wife.Now presents a pitiful spectacle.The pyramid from the top of the pyramid is in the Cairo Museum.

Black PyramidIt is considered a tourist attraction for many tourists.It is located in the village of Manshah Dahshour, the Badrasheen Center in Giza

Built in the 19th century BCE, its name comes from its dark appearance. Not impressive!

Adobe pyramid next to the layered. You have to walk to see it, but it is not open to the public. It is in poor condition but it makes the landscape very impressive along with the rest of the Dahshur pyramids.

The most beautiful natural sites in my country.

Im too much of a tourist not going to rent a terrain car or try a local traveler

The pyramid was built from milk made from the Nile silt, and this is the reason for its name and the reason for its lack of continuity as well, as it was exposed to weathering

It is one of the oldest ancient pyramids in Egypt

I want to know only one thing is it built like this from the first and why you call it a pyramid that it does not look like a pyramid

A great honor was found in our country Dahshour facility

It is really cool

Jjjjjjjaaa fine and traveled all over the world
