Video: Sneferu - King of the Pyramids

Summary:

Description: He had weaker PR than Tut and company, but lesser-known Sneferu gets the credit for making Egypt an international power. He and his sons built the pyramids, the region's most lasting legacy. Join him as he presides over Egypt's artistic and architectural heyday, then fast-forward to crawl through a surviving pyramid's labyrinthine burial chambers. © 2004 Discovery Channel School Grades: 6-8   (52 minutes)
