Скачать или смотреть Debunking 5 Myths About Ancient Egyptian Pyramids: Part 1

Ancient Egypt's Pyramids are a source of beauty and wonder. They have also led to a lot of wild theories over the years, and bred a lot of myths, rumors, and misinformation spread by pseudoscientists, movies, and internet videos. I set the record straight on 5 of those myths in Part 1 of at least a 3-part series covering Egyptian pyramids in general, as well as a (future) video of Khufu's Great Pyramid specifically. Sources for my research below.
