The pyramids of the Kushite rulers at Meroe, Sudan, are the world’s largest collection of pyramids (more than 200) and are part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site that also includes the settlements and religious centers of Musawwarat es-Sufra and Naqa. Meroe, located between the Nile and Atbara rivers, was the capital of the Kingdom of Kush, an empire in Nubia that extended from the Mediterranean to sub-Saharan Africa between the 8th century B.C. and the 4th century A.D.
