The Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities announced a project to re-cover the Pyramid of Menkaure with fallen granite. The project has sparked controversy of an archaeological nature, among those who see it as “the largest puzzle game in history,” writes Al Jazeera Net.
The scientific dimension of the issue was absent from the discussion, which we discuss in this report. Does returning granite to the pyramid affect its structural integrity or not? This is the question that we sought to answer through a group of specialists who set legitimate scientific questions.
