    EGYPT: December - 2012.
    Saqqara. The Pyramid of Userkaf.




    The Pyramid Userkaf, is officially dated as the first Pyramid of the V Dynasty. It is located in Saqqara, north-east of the Pyramid of Djoser. First it was described in 1839 by John Perring.

    The whole Userkaf complex consists of three Pyramids: the Pyramid Userkaf, Satellite Pyramid and the Pyramid of Neferheteps. Last one is destroyed, and we can see only a couple of ceiling megalithic blocks of the "burial chamber".

    EGYPT: December - 2012.
    Saqqara. The Pyramid of Teti.




    The Pyramid of Teti (the first pharaoh of VI Dynasty of the Old Kingdom) is located in the north-east of the Pyramid of Djoser.

    This is the second Pyramid in Egypt (after the Pyramid of Unas), which has texts in its main Burial Chamber. Excavations here have revealed the Satellite Pyramid, the Pyramid Temple and two Pyramids of the Queens.

    The exterior part of the Pyramid is badly damaged and looks like a small hill. The interior part is in good condition.

    EGYPT: December - 2012.
    Saqqara. Headless Pyramid.




    The Headless Pyramid was discovered in 1842 by the German archaeologist Karl Lepsius, during his excavations at Saqqara. This Pyramid was called as the "Headless Pyramid" because of the the absence of its exterior.
    Time passed and the Pyramid gradually sank under the desert sands. The attempts of archaeologists to find it once again - appeared in vain. Luck faced only to the archeology team of Dr. Zahi Hawass in 2008. A year and a half was spent on removing a seven-meter layer of sand, until the Pyramid was found again, 166 years later after Karl Lepsius' discovery.

    Dahshur. Mastabas of Old Kingdom.




    The complex of Mastabas, officially dated by the Old Kingdom, is located in a kilometer to the south-west of the Red Pyramid and the same distance to the north-west of the Bent Pyramid. What are they built from? And what for?

    Abidos. Osirion.




    Osireion - is the underground building, adjacent to the western wall of the Temple of Seti I at Abydos.

The level of the Osirion floor is about 8 meters below the Temple of Seti I. Professor Neville ( Egypt Exploration Society) said, that Osirion is one of the most ancient buildings of Egypt.
