Pyramid of Merikare

The Pyramid of Merikare is a still unidentified ancient Egyptian pyramid attested by inscriptions on funerary steles and possibly located in Saqqara.〔 The pyramid is presumably the burial place of the Herakleopolitan pharaoh Merikare, who ruled towards the end of the 10th Dynasty c. 2040 BC during the First Intermediate Period. The pyramid of Merikare is possibly to be identified with the ''Headless Pyramid'' in North Saqqara, although the latter is more likely to belong to pharaoh Menkauhor.〔〔
==Attestations==
Although undiscovered, the pyramid of Merikare is the only attested pyramid of a king belonging to the Herakleopolitan dynasties (9th and 10th). The pyramid is known by nine inscriptions, eight of which are from northern Saqqara; while the ninth is of unknown origin. From those inscriptions it is known that the ancient name of the pyramid was ''"Wadj Sut Merikare"'' variously translated as ''"Flourishing are the abodes of Merikare"'' or ''"The fresh places of Merikare"''.〔Mark Lehner: The Complete Pyramids, Thames & Hudson, ISBN 978-0-500-28547-3, p. 165.〕 All these inscriptions were found in the tombs of priests and at least four of these priests were responsible for the funerary cult of both kings Merikare and the earlier 6th Dynasty king Teti. The priests furthermore lived during the early 12th Dynasty (1991 BC - 1802 BC),〔 demonstrating that the funerary cults of these kings was still going during the Middle Kingdom and, above all, that Merikare's pyramid must have been in the vicinity of the Pyramid of Teti, in Saqqara.
