The Red Pyramid's strange inner sanctum

The Red Pyramid of Dahshur is the most commonly attributed monument for the burial of pharaoh Sneferu. A superficial look at the pyramid makes it appear to adopt classic mastaba defensive principles.
When taking a closer look at significant design features, the Red Pyramid seems to abandon the opportunity to be the most secure pyramid ever built. Instead, it's pyramid complex remains incomplete and the mystery of its 'hidden' upper chamber is laid bare.

    I'd love it if it turned out that the upper chamber floor and the corridor to it were intentionally left that way by the builders to make it look like it had already been looted if any looting party came and attempted to loot it. Would be interesting to see if muon tomography reveals any hidden chambers in the future.

    I have often thought it would be very clever if the builders built the ‘kings chamber’ and deliberately left it empty to make looters think they were not the first in. And that suspicious non load bearing block right next to the sarcophagus NEEDS investigated asap. Some muon detection of that wall would show up any passages behind it. Maybe they’ll look in the next 30 years.

    Its hard to say. The Red Pyramid was built during the Fourth Dynasty, ancient Egypt's 'golden age' and the Kingdom was already hundreds of years old at that time. It would have been exceedingly difficult for contemporary Egyptians to imagine a future without the kingdom intact and so security measures were surely seen from a different perspective while planning the construction of the pyramids. Also, Ötzi (the iceman) who lived in the Alps region of Europe at about the same time as the founding of the early Egyptian kingdom had the curious feature of his shoes being made of deer skin leather for the uppers and bear skin leather for the soles, which is confusing because bear skin is much thinner than deer skin. It would have made more sense to make the soles with the deer skin and the upper with bear skin. It just shows that humans thought about things differently back then, (what made sense to them makes no sense to us, today). We can only guess as to what thought process' the Egyptians used to make decisions, but one thing for certain, we would have had a hard time understanding those decisions.

    I get the impression that there was some sort of megalithic structure already there, and they considered it sacred - so they built the pyramid on top, preserving the old rocks underneath (hence such a sharp contrast) I actually visited that pyramid in May 2021. I was shocked that there was absolutely nobody there except 1 guard at the door. I went down there alone (my guide stayed out) and the tunnel had no lights. Climbing down there alone with only my phone flash was a horribly uncomfortable experience, and I couldn’t wait to get out of there. I think they have lights now.

    That's odd, I was there in June 2019, also having the pyramid all to myself for hours without a guide, but it was fully, fairly well lit. Definitely a perplexing place, enjoyable to explore. In June, one gets to have many ruins to oneself, even only 3 or 4 people inside the great pyramid. It was low, low season, I travelled everywhere seeing everything. Ancient humanity was a different breed than us, obviously knowing something critically important about Earth and Nature we've forgotten about. To explore all the ruins of Egypt is to feel like an ant looking at a castle and wondering, standing in the shadow of perfectionist giants that mysteriously aren't around but still ominously dominate.

    Bam! Exactly what I've been thinking. Kings probably thought keeping subjects busy was a good thing so make some for the subjects. A person dies and is brought to a pyramid for some kind of ritual. Who knows what but it would be used in turns. Maybe bring the dead there after X days. Fam takes them to inner room. Leaves them in it overnight. Comes back and takes the dead out. Next day another fam with someone dead does the same thing. Years later it was people stopped doing it and looters thought it's just another kings tomb. From what I seen the security in some of them was very weak. Why make it weak with all that work? Unless it was not security at all. Who knows. I just think at least on of the pyramids was the peoples pyramid.

    The Bent Pyramid is also the only pyramid with 2 entrances and 2 separate internal passages. The idea that this pyramid is bent as a means of reducing weight on the unstable bottom section is imo ridiculous. The fact that this supposedly defective pyramid was, first of all completed and secondly still standing, throws a large spanner into this theory. There is a duality to the Bent Pyramid’s interior that is also evident in the bend and second entrance that is not seen in any other Egyptian pyramid. And it was clearly never intended to be a tomb.

    Yes, I think a lot of things can be attributed to stubbornness or, given how long the Pyramids have been there, the passage of time has obscured how many people were there and what they were doing. It's easy for me to think that one group cleared out the burial chamber (if it was a burial chamber at all), then another group made a probe hole in the floor and gave up after finding nothing. Then years, decades, or even centuries later another group dug out more of the floor thinking the previous looters just didn't look hard enough. And then the next group thought "well there's a hole in the floor, something has GOT to be down there, and they dug further, and so on. There could have been a hundred different looting parties over the course of time, we just don't know.

    I speculate just because pyramids might have been used as tombs, it doesn't necessarily mean they were built for that purpose. Pharaohs might have inherited pyramids built for another purpose, and being impressed by them, converted them into tombs for their own use. Also, if pyramids were originally built for another purpose, they might have utilized internal furnishings made from valuable materials which were then looted. One of many possibilities

    No. Pyramids were sealed and were only forced open by looters in most recent times. I bet there was no way any pharaoh would figure an easy way in due to the constraction technic applied to the entrances. They didnt even know were the secret entrance was unless they were the builders themselves. In conclusion, whoever built them had onnly one purpose in mind.

    When I was in Egypt on tour with Ben last year (Uncharted X) I was checking the east west alignment of the Red and the Bent pyramid with a compass app on my phone, the Red pyramid is 6 degrees off, and the Bent pyramid is true east west. To me, it indicates they were built at vastly different times, the Red being older and true north was different then. Even now we see the magnetic north pole on the move, and it's affecting travel that depends on its location. It appears the Bent pyramid was a later copy, and internally, it is very crude, made with a lesser talented labor pool. Granted a cell phone app perhaps isn't the best tool for the job, but that's the results I got.

    all those pyramids' orientation have been carefully measured by researchers, Red Pyramid's north orientation is only off by 5'(0.08 degree), slightly worse than the Great Pyramid(0.05 degree), but still is one of the best among all pyramids. The north orientations of those mega structures are remarkably accurate, even in today's standard. A true engineering marvel.

    Great video! Thank you! A couple of questions and thoughts come to mind: The so called "pulley holes"; what evidence is there that they were an original detail? Could they not have been created by the tomb raiders to help the removal of whatever they were removing? Why would they remove the lower section of the inner entrance tunnel? To just remove the blocks from the floor of the "burial" chamber? What would be the point of that? Could they not have spent the time just breaking up the floor blocks in the chamber and then removing them if they needed the space? Could it be that there was a sarcophagus built into the floor and they needed to dig up the floor to remove it? I think I've seen examples where there is a locking mechanism for the sarcophagus built into the walls/floor, even sarcophagus built into the floor a little bit. Could that be what the grooves in the east/west walls are for? I noticed that the groove on (I think) the east wall looked like it had been chiselled out, perhaps to aid in the unlocking? Could that be the reason for the enlarging of the entrance tunnel, to remove the large sarcophagus and lower it to the floor of the lower chamber (using the freshly created pulley system) to then break it up to take up the entrance tunnel. Hmm, but if that was the case, why not just break it up in the burial chamber. I guess it's the same issue as enlarging the tunnel to remove the floor blocks. Anyway, fantastic series of videos and I can't wait for the next one! :) Thank you again!

    Interesting video, but why would the robbers dig deep into floor of the upper chamber to look for a potential burial chamber as opposed to all the other places they could have dug though? I don't see why not finding a burial would make the robbers choose this single place to attack over other possible locations of a hidden burial chamber. Maybe there was something about the floor that seemed suspicious to the robbers, but if that was the case then they would probably dig up the floor even if they did find a burial in the upper chamber. I will say I am open to the possibility that Sneferu was not buried in the red pyramid. I think it's possible that he had always planned to build both the bent and red pyramid, and could have chosen the bent pyramid for his burial. I don't think we can rule out a red pyramid burial based on the hole in the upper chamber though.

    If I'm understanding your comment correctly ,they made the passage larger in order to push the excavated material (large blocks) through it and into the lower hallway where it will hopefully smash onto the floor. This doesn't seem right to me ,excavating that tunnel alone took a lot of work wouldn't it be easier to leave the tunnel alone and break up the stones in the chamber before removal? Why do they need to drop them onto the floor when the enlarged tunnel shows they have the skill to break through rock. Also I'm not sure that the stones would be broken up from the fall,if you are lucky one might break in half. Not that I have any better theory's,as usual nothing makes sense with the pyramids.

    I find I'm a little sceptical of the architectural emphasis placed on defending from looters... that seems to undermine the status of the Pharaohs, to me, suggesting that they felt their timeless legacy was threatened by every bod with a pickaxe. I find it hard to believe that the sites were not, firstly, guarded and, secondly, it would surely be considered a traitorous act to even consider looting them. The Pharaohs hiding like otherwise defenceless victims from robbers... it just doesn't seem "kingly" to me. So, I would personally see the portcullis' and plugging blockages as rather more ceremonial acts i.e. creating a silent place where the Pharaohs rested undisturbed through time from the trivialities of the living world... rather than expressions of fear of looters etc. Obviously, pure conjecture, but the other, to my eye, seems to entirely contradict the Pharaoh's dominion and Godlike status.

    Very good and informative, as always. But to me it just highlights how there is scant evidence that any of the Egyptian pyramids were royal tombs. The objections raised here would seem applicable to the others as well. Why use the same layout on all of them? Why explicitly advertise the entrances? Why not fill all of the corridors with granite blocks? We have to presume that the pyramid-builders were behaving rationally, so why would they make these rather obvious mistakes? To me it seems that a more realistic interpretation of the physical evidence is that the builders wanted to allow access to the various chambers, but also wanted to make such access difficult, and wanted to protect against unauthorized access. Or perhaps wanted to allow access to something stored within them, but not its removal. A rather straightforward analogy would be a bank vault: strong defenses, but no attempt to disguise it, or prevent orderly access.

    You’re right he didn’t, I say that because if anyone alive in this generation of humanity and I don’t mean short term, I’m talking in terms of thousands of years would’ve plastered their name ALL OVER that thing… I know I would’ve and so would you have, the fact of the matter is that we will never know who what when or how they were built until we meet our maker and ask these age old questions face to face…

    We have fragments of paperwork from rock transportation, large housing areas supporting the builders dated to that time, evidence of the evolution of larger and larger pyramids (and more and more advanced stone work) and … 900 other good reasons to believe they did build it. We don’t need an even more unbelievable explanation with little to no evidence to support it. You can believe what you like, but the evidence is the evidence. Stay of The History Channel and Joe Rogan 😄
