Granite blocks that once adorned the lowest third of the Menkaure pyramid in Giza could soon adorn it again. Secretary General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, Mostafa Waziri, announced this via video on Facebook last week.
The project involves an international team of scientists deciding whether or not to restore the granite blocks after at least a year of research. Not all archaeologists are enthusiastic about the initiative. Some fear that Giza may turn into a replacement Disneyland when the granite slabs are put back on the pyramid.
