I was Looking For The Lost pyramids of Egypt
Have you ever heard of the Lost and Destroyed Pyramid’s of ancient Egypt?
There are a lot of lost and destroyed pyramids that have been “found” again…
I adore to sink into the books about ancient Egypt, their knowledge constantly astounds me.
In the summer of 2008 I read some articles. They were so intriguing that I had to visit the site that they spoke about… something about a lost pyramid…
I like to plan my excursion, bypassing any tourist guides, since I already have the experiences, and I want to see more than what is allowed on the visits with guides. Let us Begin our journey to find these Lost and forgotten Pyramids.
The ancient land of Egypt holds in its bosom mysteries that have bewildered humans for millennia. Among its enigmatic secrets are the lost and destroyed pyramids, vestiges of an ancient civilization’s monumental ambition and architectural prowess. These lost and destroyed pyramids, now either buried under sands or ravaged by time, continue to echo the stories of pharaohs and commoners alike. In exploring these architectural marvels, we delve deeper into the pages of history, uncovering tales of innovation, reverence, and life beyond death. Our journey at Secrets of Ancient Egypt takes us through the heart of these mysteries, under the soft glow of the Egyptian moon.
One of the most riveting stories is that of Pharaoh Zoser’s Pyramids, which were among the earliest pyramids built in Egypt. The step pyramid of Djoser stands as a testament to the ancient Egyptians’ architectural ingenuity and their journey towards achieving the perfect pyramid structure. It is within this pyramid that researchers have stumbled upon fascinating relics that unveil the daily lives and beliefs of those who dwelled by the Nile millennia ago. The artifacts discovered paint a picture of a society deeply entrenched in religious rituals and cosmic symbolism.
“The pyramids are not only architectural marvels, but they are also keys that unlock the way of life, the ideology, and the hope of eternity that fueled the ancient Egyptian civilization.”
A venture into the heart of Djoser’s pyramid reveals more than just stone chambers; it discloses a civilization’s quest for eternity. The discoveries made inside Djoser’s Step Pyramid shed light on the burial practices and the profound respect for the afterlife that characterized ancient Egyptian society.
As the sun sets, casting long shadows on the golden sands, the pyramids of Egypt come alive in a different light. The secrets of Egypt’s pyramids after dark are as enchanting as they are mysterious. The moonlit silhouettes of the pyramids against the star-studded sky create a surreal backdrop for the tales of pharaohs and gods that echo through the corridors of time.
The narrative of lost and destroyed pyramids is not just a tale of stones and pharaohs; it’s a chronicle of a civilization’s journey through time. Among the pages of history lies the story of the Mysterious Sarcophagus of Sekhemkhet, another telling piece in Egypt’s grand puzzle. The sarcophagus, much like the pyramids, is a doorway to understanding the spiritual and cultural ethos of ancient Egypt.
Our odyssey into the heart of Egypt’s lost and destroyed pyramids is a voyage through time, unearthing the enigmatic and the profound, as we tread the sands that have borne witness to millennia of human endeavor and divine aspiration. Through each grain of sand and each stone block, the tales of ancient Egypt beckon, urging us to delve deeper into its mysteries and continue our exploration into the world that once was.
Stay tuned as we unveil more secrets from the heart of Egypt’s enigmatic past…
The Lost and Destroyed Pyramids
There are many pyramids that can be classified as being a lost pyramid, and some of them have even been found again…
They abandoned some pyramid structures for different reasons. Either the king died before the pyramid was completed or the material didn’t work.
There are many tales and theories of the lost and destroyed pyramids that haven’t been uncovered yet. Even Mr. Edgar Cayce is noted to have talked a lot about pyramids that are still lost to mankind.
It would be logical to think that the sand might hold more than we could imagine.
It’s well known that to go back in time, one must dig deeper into the ground. The ground level we have in our present day is much higher.
So, for instance, if you wanted to look 200 years back in time, then you might dig 5 – 10 meters or more down into the ground. This was not an exact measurement, but more to illustrate what I mean.
Faiyum Pyramid
My journey to find one of the lost and destroyed pyramids:
After numerous futile attempts, I finally persuaded a dubious taxi driver to embark on a journey with me into the heart of the barren desert. The locals, clad in their skepticism, had laughed off my inquiries about the elusive pyramid that supposedly stood amidst the vast stretches of nothingness. Their scornful laughter echoed in the driver’s hesitant nods, but my persistence painted a hopeful picture of adventure that gradually dimmed his doubts.
As the cityscape receded into a mirage, the desert unfolded its endless tapestry before us, its silence only broken by the occasional murmur of our vehicle trudging along the unseen trail. Hours melded into the horizon, yet the pyramid I spoke of seemed to be a mere figment of folklore.
Just when disillusionment began to cast its long shadow, a lone figure emerged from the heart of the wilderness – a security guard, lounging in the desert’s solitude, with the Faiyum pyramid standing guard over the timeless landscape. The sight left us awestruck. The cab driver’s incredulous eyes met the ancient stones that held stories of a time forgotten. The laughter of disbelief that had once echoed in the bustling city streets now surrendered to the silent testimony of history that stood tall amidst the sands of time.
Once upon a time, in a land of endless sand, stood a lonely pyramid, forgotten and hidden away. It was so far out in the desert that almost no one ever went there. Without anyone to look after it, nature played its rough games, leaving the pyramid worn and tired.
I got the lucky chance to visit this ancient giant! With a heart full of adventure, I didn’t just go into it, I went down into its hidden chambers. There, I discovered a big problem. Over many years, water from underground had slowly crept up, threatening to fill the pyramid’s secret rooms. It was a silent battle between the old pyramid and the rising waters, in the heart of the vast, quiet desert.
Egypt is Full of Surprises
The allure of Egypt’s lost and destroyed pyramids transcends the boundaries of time and geography. The lost and destroyed pyramids, with their unique narrative, invite us to traverse the annals of history and to fathom the depths of ancient Egyptian mystique. As we continue our journey through the realms of Secrets of Ancient Egypt, we stand at the threshold of time, peering into the unknown, yet compelling past of this ancient civilization.
The tale of Pharaoh Zoser’s Pyramids is but a mere chapter in the expansive book of Egypt’s pyramid saga. As we dig deeper, we unveil layers of history, each narrating a different epoch, a different Pharaoh, and a different quest for immortality.
“Each pyramid we uncover is a passage that leads us back in time, unveiling the hopes, fears, and aspirations of a civilization that once thrived on the banks of the Nile.”
The darkness that envelops Egypt as the sun takes its leave casts a veil of mystery over the land. However, it is in this veiled silence that the secrets of Egypt’s pyramids after dark emerge, whispering tales of a time when gods and Pharaohs walked the earth. The ethereal experience of witnessing the pyramids under the soft glow of the moon is akin to traversing through time, with each shadow cast on the ancient stones telling tales of yore.
The discoveries inside Djoser’s Step Pyramid are akin to unravelling the threads of ancient Egyptian culture. The artifacts, the inscriptions, and the remnants of a bygone era found within the heart of these ancient structures provide a glimpse into the spiritual and cosmic beliefs that guided the lives of the ancient Egyptians.
Venturing deeper into the annals of history, we stumble upon the story of the Mysterious Sarcophagus of Sekhemkhet. This enigmatic relic, much like the pyramids, serves as a testament to the ancient Egyptian’s profound reverence for the afterlife and their relentless quest for immortality. The intricacies engraved on the sarcophagus narrate tales of a Pharaoh’s journey to the afterlife, a journey that encapsulates the essence of ancient Egyptian mysticism.
The lost and destroyed pyramids of Egypt are not mere architectural marvels; they are the keepers of secrets, the bearers of tales, and the remnants of a civilization’s journey through time. As we delve deeper into their mysteries, we don’t just uncover stones and relics; we unveil stories of hope, of life, and of a quest for eternity.
The enigmatic aura that surrounds these ancient pyramids continues to enthrall the hearts of many, urging us to keep exploring, to keep questioning, and to keep seeking the secrets that lie buried within the sands of time.
Our expedition through the realms of Egypt’s enigmatic past is far from over. There’s much more to explore, much more to discover, and much more to learn as we tread along the sands that have been the silent witnesses to the rise and fall of one of history’s most fascinating civilizations.
Those That Have Not Yet Been Found
I suspect that there are a lot of pyramids which we haven’t found yet. The desert sand can contain so much, and it is always in motion.
Just to direct some attention to other more recent discovery, which have baffled many people.
Yonaguni Pyramid in Japan
Lost and destroyed Pyramids, but this one is located in Japan.
The Yonagumi Monument Was discovered in 1987, by a shark observer, before that no one had ever mentioned this structure before.
A scientist named Masaaki Kimura, lead a team to investigate these gigantic underwater structures.
But there are those scientists that believe nature’s own process causes this…
