Ruins Discovered | In Search of the Lost 4th Pyramid of Giza

At the beginning of 2020, I made a video titled ‘Locating the Lost 4th Pyramid of Giza’, which looked at the claims by 18th century Danish naval captain and explorer, Frederik Ludvig Norden, who said, in quite some detail, that there was once a fourth major pyramid at Giza.

Norden provided diagrams and descriptions of the Giza plateau, and he seems to be convinced there was once a fourth prominent pyramid, beyond the 3rd major pyramid of Menkaure. You can watch this video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dH4QUMhP-w4


Using Norden’s description and looking at aerial photographs, Google Earth and topographical maps, in my former video I showed what I thought was the best possible location for a fourth pyramid and interestingly, not only did it fall on the diagonal axis with the Great Pyramid and Khafre pyramid, it also lined up with the Wall of the Crow.


I have to say, since that video and since delving further into the archaeological papers and books available, and I have become less convinced of the existence of a lost 4th pyramid and I really needed somebody to go into the field and investigate.


Well, as some of you will know, Larry from the American Institute for Pyramid Research did recently answer the call https://www.youtube.com/c/TheGreatPyramidAIP

if you want to subscribe.


Larry kindly gave me his footage to use in this video. From what I can make out, the footage comes from this location right here on the Giza Plateau. So, what did he find? Watch the video to find out!
