Egyptian Labyrinth of Hawara
Open topicSupporting citation for public claim
Excavation and survey sources identify ruins of a major complex at Hawara beside Amenemhat III's pyramid.
The Egyptian Labyrinth of Hawara is one of the strongest “lost monument” stories in ancient Egypt because there is a real site behind the legend. It is not just internet lore. Classical authors remembered a remarkable complex, and archaeology places a major ruined structure near Amenemhat III’s Hawara pyramid.
