AMENEMHAT III
AMENEMHAT III (reigned c. 1855–1808 BC). Throne name Nimaatre.
Son of Senusret III of Dynasty 12. His principal monuments are
located in the Fayum area, which seems to have been extensively developed
during his reign. He built two pyramids, one at Dahshur,
where he appears to have been buried, and another at Hawara, where
his mortuary temple was later known to the Greeks as the Labyrinth.
