Hidden Secrets of the Bent Pyramid Seen for the First Time

December 11, 2023

This video explores the mysteries of the Bent Pyramid in ancient Egypt, specifically a previously unexplored chamber that will change how pyramids are understood. The field of Egyptology has shifted towards emphasizing textual evidence, resulting in less interest in studying pyramids.

The few pyramids with inscribed walls, referred to as the Pyramid Texts, are the focus of restoration work instead of exploring the design and use of pyramids. The Bent Pyramid is a significant discovery as it provides direct evidence of how the pyramid was originally designed and used by ancient Egyptians.

The video explains that exploring pyramid design is challenging due to the damage and change that has occurred over millennia and the attraction that has led to countless visitors exploring every nook and cranny. Italian researchers VTO Maraj gioglio and celesti araldi's hand-drawn surveys from over half a century ago are the most comprehensive resource for data and visual aids, but they made mistakes and sometimes relied on earlier observations. This video will provide a model to understand the mysteries of the Great Pyramid and change how pyramids are understood.
