| These pyramids in northern Sudan were built from 4th century BC to 3rd century AD. They belong to Nubian kings. The number of pyramids in ancient Nubia (aka kingdom of Kush & today is called Sudan) were a total of 223, (Kerma, Napata, and Meroe), double the pyramids of its neighbor Egypt. The underground graves of the Nubian pyramids were richly decorated. |
