Pyramids, Northern Group, Meroë, Sudan, North-east Africa
Left to right, pyramids 3, 4 and 6. While these royal tombs were all plundered in ancient times, frescos preserved in the tombs show that the rulers were either burned, mummified (or not), and then covered with jewellery and laid in wooden cases. The finds indicated that the deceased would need and enjoy the same things in the afterlife as they had while living.
