Latvian scientists, archaeologists,
radar and photogrammetry specialists, architects, geologists,
historians, computer programmers, and others alike banded together
to create a unique technology for exploring archaeological sites.
With their new techniques they made a sensational discovery in
2007. In the oldest stone building in the world, Egypt's Pyramid
of Djoser, the Latvian scientific expedition discovered new underground
rooms as well as a network of galleries. This new information
has forced a re-evaluation of previous assumptions about the role
and function of pyramids.
