Archaeological importance

Here undermined the British archaeologist Ernest Mackay in 1910 from two pyramids. The two buildings, each of which were still in their early stages of construction and are therefore never completed, probably dating to the 13th dynasty ( Second Intermediate Period ).

The southern Pyramid of Amenemhet IV Masghuna is usually attributed to a northern pyramid of Masghuna his sister Nofrusobek is assigned. Both identifications are not yet assigned with finds.
