Wow...How did the pyramid builders build such an awesome structure... Even more to this, the secret passages,shafts,the geometry of the pyramid etc., makes it even more to complicated to build one...
Reading through this documentary, was as if, i was having an adventure game unfold before me

From the page: "The story of the discovery of the hidden doors began in 1992, when I made the decision to close the Great Pyramid to visitors in order to begin a project to reduce the humidity inside and to correct the damage that was occurring from the accumulation of salt. Each visitor who enters the pyramid leaves behind about 20 grams of moisture from their breath and sweat. When it evaporates, this moisture leaves behind salt deposits, which erode the stone over time. In 1992, we found that the humidity inside the pyramid was hovering around 85%, and salt deposits covered the walls of the Grand Gallery. We cleaned the salt from the walls of the Grand Galley, but we knew that to save the pyramid from irreversible damage, we also had to find a way to reduce the humidity inside. "

I think Dr. Hawass has one of the coolest jobs. This is a very informative site. I just love anything Egyptian.

This is the first door in the Northern Queen's chamber.~It is written in the Pyramid Texts that the king will face bolted doors before beginning his journey - perhaps this reference explains the doors' copper handles. Yet if this is true, why is Khufu's pyramid the only one with the doors? Also, why are there no doors in the shafts in the King's Chamber?~Thanks Barbara,I too have been fascinated with this mysterious,beautiful country:)~http://barbannco.stumbleupon.com
