More than 200 archaeological features were looted in Abusir during the Egyptian Lotus revolution, in January 2011.

Four species of gastropods and five species of bivalves were identified. Some species now either extinct or with limited range in the Nile were among them: Unio elongatulus, Coelatura aegyptiaca, Anodonta cygnaea, and probably Etheria elliptica.Most frequent freshwater species in the corpus, from the slow flowing or stagnant waters, could be the evidence for the environment, in which the mud for mudbrick and mud plaster was extracted.
