ZOOM- The Giza Plateau: Much More Than Just Pyramids

This program will also be streamed to our Kingsley Room. Register here if you want to watch it at the library.

Step into a time when pyramids were being built along the Nile River! Join us as we learn more about the vast amount of archeological remains found on the Giza plateau which goes far beyond the famous pyramids. Explore inside the Great Pyramid and discover workmen villages, cemeteries for high ranking officials, ships buried beneath the sand, and the true story of the Great Sphinx.
