Egyptian Pyramids
Two great pieces of news: there is a new blog by Vincent Brown which is dedicated to Egyptian Pyramid news (see the blog at the above address), and Vincent has just received information today that the pyramids of Khufu and Khafre are both open, but that of Menkaure is closed. Vincent is going to try to find a way of keeping tabls on which of the pyramids at Giza, Saqqara and elsewhere are open/closed at any time but it promises to be an uphill struggle.
Vincent's blog not only has up to date information about what is happening at various pyramid fields, but also has a section which gives full details of the pyramids in those fields (Google Earth image, name of pyramid, dates, vital statistics, and photograph).
