Inside the Pyramids
Inside the Pyramids
More than 4,500 years after the first pyramid was built, experts are still analyzing them and developing theories as to how they were built. Today, a team of international scientists has obtained the permission to get inside the most emblematic pyramids of ancient Egypt – from the Great Pyramid of Giza to the Buried Pyramid of Sekhemkhet – hoping to decipher enduring mysteries surrounding them.
Thanks to this exceptional access on site, and with the help of state-of-the-art technologies – including a new-generation laser scanner enabling digital reconstruction of the burial chambers -, this series probes the undiscovered spaces inside pyramids while learning about the ancient techniques Egyptians used to build them.
