File:The Tomb of an Egyptian God Mastaba 17 at the Meidum Pyramid Ancient Architects

Description
In Part 1 of this 2-part special, I discussed how I believe that the Meidum pyramid, and every other pyramid in Lower Egypt has a pre-dynastic origin and that their true function is now lost to history.

I proposed that the conquering people who were to become the dynastic Egyptians began a rebuilding project to claim the pyramids as their own. Every Egyptian pyramid was re-worked, I would guess starting with the Great Pyramid by Narmer himself, and possibly ending in the 4th dynasty.

Starting this video back at the pyramid of Meidum, we know that there was no burial found within its associated chambers and the link to Sneferu and his father Huni is tenuous at best. But to the north-east of the pyramid, just a few hundred yards away, there is a colossal structure in a ruinous state known as Mastaba 17, and inside are some mysterious remains that may be of an ancient Pre-Dynastic King, who was to become a god!
