Pyramids in Giza Stately pyramid of Cheops (Huf) the Museum of the Solar boat
To the South from the Stately pyramid, through the road from other group мастаб, the pavilion with controllable humidity (once a day is located: in the winter 9:00-16:00, in the summer 9:00-17:00, 35 pounds, students of 20 pounds). In it there is a 43-metre boat found in one of 5 ditches, dug round a pyramid to Huf. (One more boat has been found by means of X-rays and video cameras, but during the current time remains not dug out.)
When in 1954 at excavation limy blocks of a roof of a ditch have been removed, the weak smell of a cedar has risen. Then restorer Hagg Ahmed Yuse14 of years ворачивал this graceful vessel from 1200 pieces of a tree which at first held in common nails from a sikomor and a rope from a grass of plaited white bread-fa. Archeologists call these vessels «solar boats» (or barka), but their mission remains not clear. From a large quantity of hypotheses it is possible to mention, for example, the such: they are provided to bear the Pharaoh through the underground world (as shown in tombs of the XVII-IX dynasties in Thebes) or to accompany god of the Sun on its everyday travel on the sky.
