Exploring the Great Pyramid's Chambers, Shafts and Well | Keith Hamilton's Layman's Guide Part 2

Описание: Join me for a mammoth breakdown of the King’s Chamber, the Queen’s Chamber, their shafts and the perplexing Well Shaft, using Part 2 of Keith Hamilton’s excellent Layman’s Guide to the Great Pyramid as our light in the dark.

We will look at the construction of these elements, looking to the discoveries of great explorers from the past to annotate our way. You don’t need to have watched Part 1 to dive into this video, but in Part 1 we covered the Great Pyramid’s passageway system, the Subterranean Chamber, Al-mamun’s Tunnel, and the pyramid’s exterior.

Chapters:
1:27 - The Well Shaft
20:08 - The Queen’s Chamber (including the Horizontal Passage, the Niche, and the “Air Shafts”)
1:15:31 - The Antechamber
1:24:16 - The King’s Chamber (including the Sarcophagus, Caviglia’s Excavation and the “Air Shafts”)
1:43:00 - The Relieving Chambers
1:45:48 - Closing Thoughts

Much of the media displayed in this video comes from these incredible guides, including fantastic pictures from Larry Pahl and John Bodsworth, among others which are also immaculately sourced. I would strongly recommend starting with the Layman’s guide if you’re looking to read further.

CORRECTIONS:

There are a few pronunciation mistakes, on my part and also on the part of my guest voice actors, Tom and Gareth. Remember that we are learning as we go, and learning some of these interesting people and names is also a part of that!

There is a stray “Section Title” theme loose in the audio stems somewhere, that triggers randomly when I am talking. +10 internet egyptologist points to anyone who can spot it!

There is a stray mobile notification sound loose in the audio stems somewhere, an additional +10 internet egyptologist points to anyone who spots it!
