The pyramid of Sinki at Abydos, one of seven small provincial step pyramids attributed to pharaoh Huni or Sneferu of the Third or early Fourth Dynasty, ~2600 BCE. Original base 18.4 metres per side; original height around 12 metres on three or four stepped tiers. The structure is built of limestone blocks and rubble fill with no internal substructure — no burial chamber, no corridor, no entrance. Excavated by Günther Dreyer for the German Archaeological Institute between 1979 and 1980. The pyramid sits within sight of the cemetery of Abydos — the principal cult centre of Osiris and the burial place of the First-Dynasty kings of Egypt — but is unconnected to any of the surrounding monuments architecturally or chronologically.
A solid limestone pyramid sited within view of the holiest cemetery in pharaonic Egypt, built nine hundred years after the kings buried there, with no internal chambers and no documented function.
