摘要
Back in 2020 an astonishing discovery was made, well, an astonishing re-discovery, as the missing Dixon Relic, a wooden rod found inside the Great Pyramid in 1872, turned up in the University of Aberdeen in Scotland.
It was one of three objects found in 1872 inside the Queen’s Chamber Northern channel, but on its rediscovery, the piece of wood was radiocarbon dating, and the results were quite a shock, having a date range between 3341 and 3094 BC. Yes, at a minimum, it was around 500 years older than the conventional date of the Great Pyramid.
But how can this be? Is the pyramid older than we are led to believe? Does it imply the Great Pyramid was in fact built in the pre-dynastic or early dynastic periods? Or is there another explanation? Well, in this video, I’ll be trying to find the answers.
