The joint Italian-Polish archaeological mission discover remains of a mud-brick building below King Niussere in Abu Ghorab Temple

The joint Italian-Polish archaeological mission, working at the temple of King Niussere in Abu Ghorab, north of Abu Sir, discovered the remains of a mud-brick building below the temple.

 

The discovery hints that the remains might belong to one of the lost four solar temples from Dynasty 5, known only in historical sources.

Secretary General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities Mostafa Waziri explained that the remains of the discovered building has an entrance made of limestone.

Head of the Egyptian Antiquities Sector Ayman Ashmawy explained that the  remains of the newly discovered building showed that it was made of mud bricks and was partially demolished by Niussere to establish his temple.
