The end of the
Third Dynasty
had not been clearer than its beginning and it had proved difficult to reconcile the documentary information with the archeological evidence . The change to the
Fourth Dynasty
is equally difficult to understand , but the most concrete surviving evidence of change is the transfer of the royal necropolis southwards , from Zawiyet el-Aryan to
Meidum
and
Dahshur
before reuniting north from Cheops's reign onwards .
