The Supreme Council of Antiquities will finish during the coming period a project for developing "El-lesht" monuments, Middle Kingdom's capital including features of its history. The history of El-lesht remains a mystery as most of its secrets and treasures are still burried under the earth in an area called "Bakr Area".
An antiquity resource said that "El-lesht" village was called in the Pharaonic Era "Atht Tawi" which means holding territerians. The village was the capital of Egypt in the Dynasties era. The area is considered to be an extension to Manf cemetery located in south Dahshour area.
The saving project includes important points as decreasing the underwater as it affects the two royal burial rooms in the pyramids. The project also aims to restore the engravings of Sonasert Ankh including hundreds of the pyramids texts. The pyramids texts included the history of the Egyptian religion. The project also aims to dig holes to explore the new cemeteries as "An Gar Hotob" cemetery.
