THE GREAT PYRAMID (Sep, 2006)

Get your hard hat ready! And some good walking shoes, and make sure they're good for walking in dry, hot sand! You are gong to be entering Egypt's Great Pyramid, meeting with those on site at Giza, and checking out the boat that was buried - in pieces - by the Great Pyramid. We'll take a side trip, too, to meet the tomb builders - and the clues they left that reveal what life was like in Egypt more than 4,000 years ago. Then, to answer a question many of you have asked, we'll dig up the truth on why pyramid building stopped - or, did it just take a different form? So, mark your calendars: September 2006: DIGTM's tour of the Great Pyramid.
