There are a lot of archeological discoveries, which can be listed as proof for a large number of dateable pyramids at the end of the Middle Kingdom or the beginning of the Second Intermediate Period. Some of these were already mentioned and identified by Karl Richard Lepsius. Unfortunately only a few owners of these pyramids are known, who are attested by philological sources. Nevertheless, these tombs are certainly dateable to the thirteenth dynasty. Some other sepulchres can apparently be dated to the successive time of the twelfth dynasty based on a typological comparison between the subterranean structures and the pyramids of the last rulers of the Middle Kingdom. The present article collects all of the so far attested tombs and pyramids alloted to the thirteenth dynasty and seeks to collect and sort the various sources, which can help to attribute the tombs to this dynasty or reassign them to another period.
