The Layer Pyramid (known locally in Arabic as Haram el-Meduwara, Arabic: هرم المدورة‎, or Round Pyramid) is located in the necropolis of Zawyet el'Aryan. It is thought to be the tomb of Khaba, of the Third Dynasty, but this is based upon excavations in a tomb inside the pyramid complex, and is disputed.
