Object description

The Pyramid of Neferirkare was built for the Fifth Dynasty pharaoh Neferirkare Kakai, referred to as Neferirkare, in the 25th century BC. It was the tallest structure on the highest site at the necropolis of Abusir, found between Giza and Saqqara, and still towers over the necropolis. The pyramid is also significant because its evacuation led to the discovery of the Abusir Papyri.
