The Egyptian "Al-Beit" magazine has compared Giza and Sudanese pyramids, arguing that Giza pyramids are the most ancient in history despite the difference in size and added that it was discovered that Mangra pyramid was far smaller than the two pyramids built for his father and grandfather.
According to the magazine, there are 300 pyramids in Sudan and 100 in Egypt but that the Giza pyramids are bigger than others. The magazine stated that, "If the king in the Pharaoh Age was mightier and luckier, a bigger pyramid would be built for him, which explains the big-sized pyramids of the 4th Egyptian Family, which erected Likhukhu, Khafraa and Mangara."
Jamal Nekroma, writer of the article, indicated that Sudan's pyramids differ in shape to the Egyptian ones, in being more upright which he attributed to the Sudanese weather in ancient times. He added that "North Sudan was more humid, in addition to heavy rains and floods. That is way the pyramids were designed in that fashion."
Sudanese pyramids are exclusively located in the Nubian region of Sudan, where a civilization similar to the Egyptian civilization had emerged, namely in the regions of Maroe and Nouri.
It is worth noting that diplomatic relations between ancient Egypt and Nuba, North Sudan dates back to 7000 years ago. The old Egypt relied on Nuba for irrigation, which confirms the pyramids connection to the Nile Valley.
