In the desert of Sudan lies the ancient city of Meroë, home to over 200 pyramids built by the Kingdom of Kush, yet their full purpose remains a mystery. Unlike the larger Egyptian pyramids, these structures are smaller and steeper, arranged in ways that continue to puzzle researchers. What’s particularly intriguing are the carvings and symbols found near the pyramids, some of which seem to align with celestial events, hinting that the Kushites may have had advanced knowledge of astronomy. Some believe these pyramids may have served more than just as burial sites—possibly functioning as markers or ceremonial centers. Unfortunately, much of their history was lost when treasure hunters raided the site in the 19th century, leaving us with more questions than answers. Though they may not be as well-known as Egypt’s, the over 200 pyramids of Meroë hold fascinating clues about an ancient civilization still waiting to be fully understood.
