Dahshur

　　Dahshur is a large Egyptian royal necropolis located on the desert west bank of the Nile, about 40 kilometers south of Cairo. The site is home to several pyramids, two of which are among the oldest, largest, and best-preserved in Egypt. Dahshur is considered one of Egypt’s most significant pyramid fields, alongside Giza and Saqqara. However, until 1996, access to the area was restricted due to its location within a military zone, resulting in limited archaeological knowledge about the site.
