The Mystery of Sneferu and his 3 Huge Pyramids - and a full tour inside the Red Pyramid of Dashur!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 сен 2021
- The Red Pyramid of Dashur is Ancient Egypt's third largest pyramid - only slightly less massive than the middle pyramid at Giza. According to mainstream history, it was built by Pharoah Sneferu, the father of Khufu, who not only built this, but two more of the mightiest pyramids of the Old Kingdom, the Bent and Meydum pyramids.
Just how many huge pyramid 'tombs' does one ruler need?
Join me as we explore the enigmatic Red Pyramid, with a full private walk through of it's chambers, and glimpse into the many unknowns about the true history of this remarkable ancient monument.

It's a rainy day here, I literally spent all day yesterday cutting firewood, now time to chill with Ben from UnchartedX, cup of tea, bread bakin in the oven and a tour of the red pyramid..good times!
Baked bread sounds awesome....I don't know how....
@Wretched Rebel Fiskers all the way!
@Jonny Splitz Awesome Jonny!
@@masterofsparkshwy6974 quart jar 2/3rds full of warm water, add 1/4 cup sugar and a teaspoon salt and 1 packet yeast , let sit til yeast bubbles up then fill jar the rest of the way with oil (1/3 qt) pour into a bowl and add 2 quart jars full of flour, mix until its a big lump, if it wont pull together add a little more flour until it does. Bake in an oiled pan at 350 for about 35 minutes.
@@oliverolover thank you. Nervous.. sounds simple enough, hope i get it right. And Fiskars are beautiful. Been using Fiskars since i was a kid, seeing my granny use it.
Man that flute is awesome,goose bumps on top of goose bumps to be there in a pyramid listening to that.
I've heard him play Maiden on the flute
@@patricklooney590 talented! I'm more of a AC/DC fan
Definitely a Stimulation of All my Senses including -the most difficult one:
-Common Sense!
Great job as always Ben.
Love your work too Brien.
Love your channel Brien! I've learnt so much and seen so many places that I would never have the chance to see in real life through your work. Especially I appreciate you opening my eyes about the nature of the Paracas Skulls. I hope Ben gets into that kind of thing soon too. Did you guys talk about it during your South America trip?
@@letssavetheworld3929 Very much so

Hello all father
that flute is awesome! it’s so haunting and that natural reverb is out of this world!
Sneferu and his 3 pyramids, just the title gets me smiling. :)
Haha same!
Love your work too :)
A true legend
Hey dude, love your channel. In recent years I have stepped back from stuff that strays too far from the academic line. Ben does present some very compelling questions though. 3 pyramids for one man ?. I dunno dude, more questions than answers...peace to ya.
maybe he built two pyramids for the two family members "next in line" for self preservation
As the sound resonances of the pyramid are flawless, truly exposes any imperfection in the player or instrument played. What a test to expose the imperfections in man..thank you for that, and thank Yousef, really quite a treat.
Even more so the flaws of the recording equipment and mpeg compression.
That flute was absolutely beautiful and haunting.
Happy to see you managed to finish it before leaving to the Scablands! Hope you have a great trip and i will for sure enjoy your great work 🤗
Hey K, I seem to be bumping into you everywhere (you know your not supposed to be on alternative theory sites right ?) 😉...Ben rocks though (pun intended).Don't tell Curtis or David Miano I was here or they will ban me 😉
Hei K. You have a great RUclips channel. 🇳🇴
One of the absolutely best vids on any Egyptian Pyramid that I have ever watched Ben. Virtually a private tour! Awesome. You and Yusef excelled in this vid. The haunting Egyptian music was a wonderful aspect and unexpected bonus. I need to join you both in Egypt. Thanks so much Ben.
Your videos are brilliant Ben. Great respect for all the work you put into it. Very clearly written and presented. Hope you'll keep it up for many years to come.
Everything he claims has been debunked. Check out sacred geometry decoded to see how people really did this stuff.
Thank you so very much for taking the camera there, for letting the guides ask the interesting questions, highlighting important aspects!
Where before we would've never had a slightest chance of knowing that such questions exist, or seeing footage of inconvenient for archaeologists places, today, thanks to you and other curious researchers, we have footage that is better than Discovery channel or History channel, footage that is not aimed at the lowest common denominator of human population, but footage intelligent, with many details, with high resolution shots of the most exciting spots. Thanks to you and the way you make your videos in the most respectful manner to the viewers, we can see the places with our own eyes, and make our own guesses, not being annoyingly pushed in the dogmatic direction and being starved of even seeing anything of interest up close.
We may never know the original purpose but we'll always be greateful to you, Ben, for making these videous and publishing them on the Internet, thus unlocking the original data for anyone and everyone in the name of freedom of information about our common history. Thank you so very much!
You guys will be a reference for many generations to come. You don't notice it, but history is being made.
Another great video. The flute sequence entering the pyramid was well done and very creative. I would certainly enjoy more atmospheric sequences like this in your videos, it brings to life the experience of entering the pyramid and makes it feel like you are there.
An under-appreciated couple of mins
An under-appreciated couple of mins
So many unknowns regards the ancient structures. If we knew what they were actually used for we probably wouldn't believe it. Thanks for another great video - love Yousef's music, its mesmerising.
Ganz sicher sind es Maschinen, die sich mit dem Erdinnern befassen, aber unserem Wissen weit voraus.
@@hansburch3700Hans du bist nichts weiter als ein unerzogener Verschwörungstheoretiker wenn du deine Zeit nur ein wenig mit richtiger Ägyptischer Archäologie verbracht hättest wüsstest du das es Gräber sind.
We do and only you and the RUclips generation doesn’t believe it
Oh my gosh, that’s incredible. Yusef’s music is mind-bending 😌
that flautist was AMAZING...it's almost like he has some kind of ancestral kinship with all of the technology necessary to create such a solo masterpiece...as always, excellent, Mr. BenBen
I have been working on ideas of anomalies in the historical record. A simple concept, let's not try and propose 'a theory', let's just look at clear anomalies. The question I have been asking as an historian is; "Can an historian question established historical narratives?" I am not at all a conspiracy theorist and am a big supporter of Ben because his main thrust is to call for research, real, scientific research. Who can object to that if they are an academic intellectual? However, if you know anything about the academy, as Ben does and as I do from my undergraduate days at the Oriental Studies Faculty at Cambridge and post-graduate time at Ruskin College, Oxford, then you know that peer review is a political structure.
Peer review is a badly broken tool that has stood to make science even more dogmatic than it was in the days of religious education.
This drove me away from science when I was in education but I believed that it was only students who were unable to question dogma. Since then it has become very clear to me that limiting critical thinking is a problem right across the profession of science not just in student research.
Its not a crime against sanity to be a conspiracy theorist. Winston Churchill was one , he thought the Nazis were up to no good. The people that caught Guy Fawkes were conspiracy theorists. I'm not sure why vocabulary is being warped. As far as correctness it is a neutral term, it does not mean automatically mean incorrect. I sure you've been a conspiracy theorist at least once in your life.
@@FreeSpeechXtremist I would argue that the problem is now societal. I have just had a warning from RUclips and one of my videos removed because of a claim against it of 'hate speech'. The subject of the video was whether an historian can question an official, received history. In order to put that proposition together, I merely identified clear anomalies in the official history. I stated clearly that I was not disputing the official history nor was I proposing 'another history or other theory', all I was engaging in was a methodological process of looking for anomalies. Now I would not know how to write hate speech if I sat down and spent a week trying. I am married to an Asian woman, I have worked in human rights and been invited to speak at a U.N. conference on my work and am a calm, patient individual who likes reading books and writing history. I checked my video, absolutely no evidence of hate speech whatsoever. I asked a colleague to look at it and he was totally bemused. I appealed (to the bot, obviously) and asked to be supplied with what the 'hate speech' actually was in the content. Within 15 minutes my appeal was rejected and the claim of 'hate speech' upheld and a warning issued against my channel that all of my work will be removed if I repeated the offence. No evidence provided, no identification of who made the claim, just a kangaroo court and a threat to lose all of my work if I repeat an offence which I am unable to identify. Really, you cannot make this up. A video questioning whether an historian still possesses the ability in our current society to question historical narratives is removed as hate speech. No my friend, the problem with critical discourse has spread far from the campus.
@@jasoncox7257 Actually Jason, I agree with what you are saying here. However, my purpose was much more focused than this general, but very good, point. I was criticising a received history which is plagued with people making up all sorts of theories and the official received history being strongly defended by labelling all criticism as 'conspiracy theory'. In order to avoid this trap, I specifically did not engage in 'conspiracy theory' but proposed a methodological analysis based on identifying anomalies. No critique of the official narrative, no proposition of an alternate theory, merely asking if it is possible to identify anomalies in the received version of that history. I am sure that you see my point here. Like you, the use of the term 'conspiracy theory' as a pejorative really concerns me. Where I am at, as an historian, is that I no longer place much store in the bulk of our received histories. Certainly, Ben's work just supports that view. Again, what I really like about Ben is his call for professional, in-depth scientific study. That's what I call academic. Strange though isn't it, our really contentious histories all seem to be the ones in which further in-depth scientific study is discouraged if not actually banned. My own conclusion is that most of history is a mythology.
No science should be settled.
Sneferu probably didn't even know what the pyramids were for any more than we do.
I have seen politicians starting building projects for no other reason than prestige...
@@ypey1 Did Sneferu really build 3 mega pyramids? 380+ tons of stone blocks, every day, for 25 years?
@@antoniokasljevic sniffu was a good boy
@@antoniokasljevic And all the while fighting palace intrigue and wars of conquest? That Sneferu sure knew how to multitask! When did he find time to shag his concubines?
This is the best comment I have read.
This is perfect Ben! I very much appreciate the efforts you've made to separately cover these pyramids, including all three major pyramids on the plateau in exclusive detail. Good work!
Oh yay! Another video by Ben!!!!!
Will ALWAYS stop what I'm doing to watch these, Ben. Thank YOU!!!!
The sound of the flute harnessing the acoustic properties of the pyramid... Incredible. New bucket list entry : Playing the drumkit in the Kings Chamber of the great pyramid.
Never had a bucket list .... but I'd like to hear the Dagda's Harp played by the stars & planets in Newgrange (ireland/Eire) as recorded in our myths. Off subject i know, but the music from Yousef ( in the moment before i've listened to the second tune) makes me wanta hear it, the Dagda's Harp more. And yes, i've theory how it's done. Not for here though.. Beautiful tour. Thank you
My first ever first :)
your father and i are so proud of you
My name is cooler though.
😄👏👏
Love it, good work! Can only imagine how much filming and editing time you’ve spent, much appreciated.
Holy shit the sustained reverb on that flute! That was incredible.
When Yusef said "they were still practicing and they finished 3 pyramids?" i died laughing.
They built a dam before the pyramids.
Excellent commentary and EXCELLENT video footage! For all of us who cannot travel to Egypt, this kind of HD-close-up videography is the next best thing to seeing in person
Excellent footage. According to Lehner, initially the Bent Pyramid's chapel was a very simple affair composed of two walls of limestone roofed with slabs, which was expanded by mudbrick walls. Within the chapel, two round-topped stelae, the stumps of which remain, were formerly inscribed with the names of Sneferu.
That flute playing was amazing and a very fitting soundtrack to pyramids in a desert LOL!
Thank you so much that we get to follow into the pyramids, really appreciate! The flutist deserves his own video with the best clips from Egypt!
Thank you for your tremendous effort producing this content. Easily better than anything else on tv.
That tune at the end got a full rewind, amazing music. Thank you for this wonderful trip through the pyramid.
The best New viewpoints on ancient Egypt
Great job, you're doing the world a favor with your work. I had never spent that much time on the bent pyramid, but what you show us here belies the simple fact that an advanced civilization was busy at work. At 11:58 where we see the chamber and once again the finely honed granite stones put in place, no one in the world is going to make me believe that chariot-era technology could have done such fine work. Ditto with placing huge stones and cutting through passageways. We have to one day realize that like the discovery in 1964 of laser-assisted surveying tools, that only from 1964 could someone have built The Great Pyramid of Giza. It's coming. The day when how to make megalithic stone work is discovered and then and only then will we be able to understand how they did it. These structures were here when the ancient Egyptians came on the scene. They inspired them to become the great people they are known to be, but we have to realize that somewhere there is going to be a discovery of a library or some sort of engravings which will be the voice of the ancients and it will then be known how tube drills, massive stone work, lifting of 100 ton blocks was done.
Excellent post
Wie sie es gemacht haben ist nicht sehr wichtig, sicher mit weit fortgeschrittenen Werkzeugen, die wir uns heute noch nicht vorstellen können. Wozu die Pyramiden gebaut wurden, ist das wichtigste und weshalb es so notwendig war. Z. B. Kontrolle der Erdumlaufbahn.
This is Michel Gamil RABBAT Egyptian American in Florida pre Osiris (AW SER) the sang a proto Kemt immigrants used biotite stronger than bronze to work slabs of basalt and softer granite..They experimented in raising a BenBaan

Wow!!! Pure gold! Surely, UnchartedX in the top best in these fields!
Amazing video !!! ♥️ Thank you so much.
great video work Ben. Close ups, distant vistas, all angles. Just like being there. And the music was perfect! I just added the Red Pyramid and Bent Pyramid to my bucket list.
With the added music you can almost imagine being there in ancient times. Thank you for an excellent tour, with explanation. I am currently watching your collection and hope to enjoy the rest as much as this one !!
Magical presentation Ben! The music was divine and evoked very ancient times as I watched. My favourite of all your presentations. Many thanks to all who bring this Egyptian mystery to us.
That was awesome mate!
Thank you 😎👍
What an awesome video, thank you Ben. I gotta see the Red Pyramid on my next Egypt trip
Wow, this was so amazing! Thank you
What an excellent mini doc benny, with yosef playing the flute, dude i felt like i was transported back in time
Always a pleasure to see a new video from Ben.
PLAYING THE FLUTE INSIDE SOUNDED BEAUTIFUL WITH THE ACOUSTICS.
you always make my days better X, thanks a bunch!
This was some great stuff. Thank you.
Those vaulted ceilings are something else. Music a bonus !
Wow thank you so so much for sharing this video with us
Very beautiful and informative, the music on top makes it magical!
Huge thumbs up. Quite a magical/beautiful video
An excellent, informative and entertaining video, as always. Thanks for making it.
THE FLUTE PLAYING!!!!!! holy crap man. that was incredible.
Love your videos. Amazing channel. Thank you for everything. The music was really chill too in this video.
Always appreciate your work, Ben.
I loved the music in this video, it really fits the mood
Exceptional as always Ben! The lighting was a bit tricky sometimes but could see everything you needed to.
The resonance in that place sounded off the charts though holy cow
This educational content is what we truly need!
Great job, as always.
Absolutely lovely!
Education is gained from studying 200 years worth of modern Egyptology and seeing this stuff for yourself. This content is visually excellent but the conclusions are absurd.
Thank you Ben. Brilliant video. 👍
Great video! Very informative
Ben, excellent video! The next time you're there you need to take some samples of that oil/liquid/residue that's seeping out of those stones and have it analyzed. All you'd need is a couple of razor blades and small sample/test tubes.
First I was thinking the same. but I really like the way Ben always just looks and take notice ande dont interfere. No matter how exiting it is. And I think it is a good way to avoid critique from people who just waits for an reason to stop Ben.
@@LB-vu2yc couldn't agree more
Great video Ben!
Hi! Love your channel! Thank you for your efforts!
Enjoyed the music and all around well done video, thank you!
Beautiful and enchanting music from Yusof ... and thank you for a great tour.
Great stuff, as always. I really enjoyed this. Fascinating
Another excellent video Ben, cheers... Keep up the amazing work!
Dope as usual Ben. 🙏
Great idea Ben, including Yousef & his brother's music. I see it being played during construction of these pyramids... thousands and thousands of years ago, waay before Sneferu was even thought about !
Loving the added soundtrack, really set the stage and exit nicely!
I really enjoy your content Ben. Your commitment and non-biased speculations are admirable. Thank you for sharing with the world.
Amazing insights. I had to watch this one twice.
I loved the music too!
Awesome work as always thankyou so much. Love the outtro music so beautiful
Excellent vid thanks Ben
Great video and topic.. I love Yousef's explanation of the stonework... I'm so glad to have stumbled across your channel.
The flute the haunting flute music--thank you so much for including that. Shivery. Wonderful work as always Ben.
Wow! That music is awesome. Wonderful video Ben
The flute is beautiful! Superb choice of music! Perfect!
Amazing video, Ben. Thanks so much for sharing this! That flute playing was off the goddamn hook!
awesome, thanks Ben.
Thanks Ben, always facinating! 😎👍
super enjoyed many thanks.
Thanks for the journey!
Imagine touring a thousand year old nuclear reactor site and having to explain the site. It would be super difficult even without previous human intervention to describe the function of all it's parts. This feels equally as frustrating.
A supersized ballistic cannon: Stick an obelisk into the descending shaft and generate some sort of multiple combustion in the 3 chambers behind.
See how far it flies.
Wissenschaft könnte die Funktion schon längst erklären, aber es gibt starke Interessen so etwas nicht allen Leuten bekannt zu machen. Sie könnten anfangen selbst zu denken.
@@hansburch3700 I've been wondering about it myself. Things like microchips should've been perfected to their physical limit shortly after they were conceived.
But for some reason they were just doubling transistor density every 2 years for 60 years. Doesn't make any sense, science doesn't work incrementally.
If our civilization got wiped out, our records got lost and our language changes, in 10 thousand years they will explain Nuclear Reactors as a ritual site for sacrifice, of course.
Wow, that was cool. Thank you
Amazing video 👍
Thanks Ben. Another fascinating video, SO MANY QUESTIONS. What I respect you most for Ben , is if you don’t know the answer you will put possiblities forward, but without insisting that what you have just said is the only possible interpretation.Great work mate, keep it up.
Astonishing.
Thank you for this great video.
Sunday morning viewing, great way to wake up over strong coffee ☕ cheers again Ben, looking forward to sorting a trip to Egypt with you at some point
Missed this! Cheers Ben!!
excellent work ben
Thank you both, Ben and Yousef. By far the best pyramid tour video, nothing i've seen ( of a few) comes even close, as of Sept 2021. If anyone knows one, please feel free to educate me.
Especial thanks for the tunes, i'll be back to this vid lots just for that alone.
I love Yousef’s laugh haha 😊
Great and entertaining video
Awesome work Ben
On point again Ben and the flute music sounds amazing 👍👍
Brilliant content as always
Look at the corners cut out of the giant blocks, amazing
I am super jealous that you were able to explore with Yusef! I am a huge fan of all your content Ben. Thank you for everything!
The thoughts of that music around the 18 min mark echoing throughout the pyramid maybe back in the day gave me chills. Can you imagine the acoustics in there.
I so much enjoyed this over the "Live Stream" you did a few weeks earlier about Exploring the Great Pyramid; that episode was definitely more chaotic and not as simple for a "Simpleton" such as myself to learn from, compared to this lesson about The Sneferu Three!
A fascinating presentation.
