Monuments of Huni

The Meidum pyramid
There are 7 small step pyramids, dating from the second half of the third synasty and as late as the early 4th dynasty. Likely there are others that have yet to be discovered. These may all belong to Huni and their purpose is unknown. They have no internal chambers, nor underground structures. They are generally on the west bank of the Nile. They are not tombs (lacking national structure) although they may have been cenotaphs (fake tombs) of the queens. They may have been enshrines.
