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.

Many of the granite slabs are currently scattered around the pyramid. There are apparently doubts as to which of the stones lying on the ground were actually on the pyramid, and many stones lying around the Giza plateau are not polished. If the team could put the fallen blocks back in place, and do so in a reversible way, it would make “extremely sense”
