I've read that one of the pyramids had an entrance to the labyrinth, according to an ancient historian whose name escapes me. Why don't Egyptian officials dig it out as a new/old wonder of the World if it's still there and complete? Right now it's just legend to me.
That's all well and fine about the pyramids, but I care about the mythical labyrinth. Expose it if it's there, Egypt.
Questionable technology, however. I tend to believe it's probably right, but they have to prove it! Hawas needs to get the f*ck out of the way of history!
It was from the lost Kingdom of Stygia in Robert E. Howard's Conan universe, "by Crom!"The fact that the dude who excavated that pyramid in the late 1800s thought the stone covering the labyrinth was the base stone layer is quite funny. It demonstrates the sheer size and magnificence of it, that he did not even consider that most of it was still below him. Instead he thought the masons over the centuries had pilfered all its stones.
Can you imagine the value of the inscriptions on that many walls and passageways. Probably would rewrite most of what we think we know about all of it.
