A proposito di questo titolo

In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the hidden portcullis systems of the Great Pyramid of Giza. They reveal how three massive granite slabs once sealed the King's Chamber, discussing the engineering behind their installation and the mysterious plugging blocks in the Ascending Passage. The conversation covers the 19th-century discovery by Giovanni Battista Caviglia, the absence of portcullises in other Giza pyramids, and what these stone doors tell us about Old Kingdom security and funerary beliefs. Lucas also explains the trapdoors and secret chambers that modern researchers have found, including the mysterious copper-handled door explored by robotic cameras in 1993. Tune in for a deeper look at the architectural genius of Khufu's builders.
