What part of the mantle is most solid?

The most solid part of the mantle is the lower mantle, which extends from about 660 kilometers to 2,900 kilometers beneath the Earth's surface. In this region, the immense pressure causes the rocks to behave more like a solid than a liquid, despite being composed of semi-solid materials. The lower mantle is characterized by its high density and rigidity, contrasting with the more ductile behavior of the upper mantle, where the asthenosphere allows for some flow.
