The ‘Lost Fourth Pyramid of Giza’

Next Monday the History Channel will air a documentary called “The Lost Pyramid”.

The documentary sensationally refers to the pyramid of Djedefre as “The Lost Fourth Pyramid of Giza”, even though Egyptologists have been well aware of this pyramid for over a hundred years, it first being investigated by John Perring and later by Flinders Petrie who’s meticulous efforts gave us the detailed measurements of Khufu’s pyramid. Nor is the pyramid located at Giza, instead it can be found 8 kilometers north at Abu Roash.

Even Zahi Hawass, who as we know is a bit of a show man, is hyping up the claim stating:

“I’m a pyramid man, and what I’ve seen now has made me change many things…Every history book in every language is going to be rewritten.”

Like the video I posted in a previous article, the documentary uses computer-generated reconstructions to demonstrate how Djedefre’s pyramid was connected to the three pyramids at Giza.

See the History Channel website for more information on “The Lost Pyramid”.
