The Southern Mazghuna Pyramid is an ancient Egyptian royal tomb which was built during the 12th or the 13th Dynasty in Mazghuna, 5 km south of Dahshur. The building was never finished, and is still unknown which pharaoh was the owner, since no appropriate inscription have been found. The pyramid was rediscovered in 1910 by Ernest Mackay and excavated in the following year by Flinders Petrie.〔Flinders Petrie, G. A. Wainwright, E. Mackay: ''The Labyrinth, Gerzeh and Mazghuneh'', London 1912, (available online ).〕 ==Attribution==
The building shares some structural similarities to the Hawara pyramid of Amenemhat III, and for this reason it is usually attributed to his son Amenemhat IV (around the end of the 19th-century BCE). In parallel, the near northern Mazghuna pyramid is considered to be the tomb of his sister Sobekneferu, the last ruler of the 12th Dynasty. However, some researchers such as William C. Hayes〔W.C. Hayes, ''The Scepter of Egypt. A Background for the Study of American Antiquites in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. From the Earliest times to the End of the Middle Kingdom'', New York, 1953.〕 believed that the southern pyramid was built during the 13th Dynasty, on the basis of some similarities with the pyramid of Khendjer. In this case, it should have belonged to one of the many pharaohs who ruled between the beginning of the 13th Dynasty and the loss of control of the northern territory occurred during or soon after the reign of Merneferre Ay.〔McCormack, Dawn.

Marée (ed) ''The Second Intermediate Period (13th-17th Dynasties), Current Research, Future Prospects'', Belgium: Peeters Leuven, 2010, pp. 69-84.〕
