Ancient Mystery Of Egypt’s Black Pyramid – Did It Really Exist?
Ellen Lloyd - AncientPages.com - Was there once a black pyramid in Egypt that has been erased from the pages of history? Could the pyramid be buried beneath the sand, or was the ancient structure misidentified?
It has been suggested that there is a fourth pyramid somewhere on the Giza plateau, but if this is true, then why can’t we see it? Also, why was the pyramid black?
The Giza Plateau on the outskirts of Cairo is a famous, must-see Egyptian landmark visited by tourists worldwide. At this magnificent ancient site, we find the enigmatic Sphinx, three famous pyramids, several ancient cemeteries, a workers' village, and an industrial complex. Archaeologists excavating at Giza keep discovering new tombs and stunning ancient Egyptian artifacts. This historical site has not yet given up all its ancient secrets and has much more to offer.
We know there are three famous pyramids at Giza, built by Pharaohs Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, but there are no obvious signs of a fourth pyramid.
The existence of a fourth pyramid at Giza was documented by Danish explorer Frederic Louis Norden (1708-1742), who participated in an expedition to Egypt organized by the Frenchman Pierre Joseph le Roux d'Esneval on the demand of Danish King Christian VI.
