Mostagedda is an archaeological site in Upper Egypt, 10 km south of Asyut and on the east bank of the Nile, which includes a necropolis that covers several different periods of Egyptian history from predynastic Badarian culture to Greco Roman. Notably, the site also includes burials from the Pan-Grave culture of ancient Nubia.{{cite book |last1=Mourad |first1=Anna-Latifa |title=Rise of the Hyksos: Egypt and the Levant from the Middle Kingdom to the Early Second Intermediate Period |date=31 October 2015 |publisher=Archaeopress Publishing Ltd |isbn=978-1-78491-134-8 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=FRteEAAAQBAJ&dq=Mostagedda&pg=PA111 |language=en}}
