Archaeologists Discover Hidden Voids In Egypt's Pyramid Of Menkaure

Archaeologists Discover Hidden Voids In Egypt's Pyramid Of Menkaure

Imagine a giant old triangle toy, like a pyramid!

Scientists have been looking at one of these toy pyramids in Egypt, called the Pyramid of Menkaure.

They used special tools, like a super-detective scanner, to see inside without breaking it.

The scanner found two empty spaces, like hidden rooms, behind the wall.

Scientists think these empty spaces might help them understand a strange part of the pyramid's outside wall that looks different from the rest.

They hope this discovery might even lead them to a secret way into the pyramid that nobody has found before.

This is similar to another discovery they made in a different pyramid last year.

They are very careful not to damage the old toy pyramid while they are learning about it.
