The North Face Corridor discovered by the Scan Pyramids mission aligns with one of the ramps proposed in Rosell Roig's model, also matching a cavity on the corner edge. The researcher shared code and datasets on Zenodo so egyptologists and engineers can test and refine the model.
Scan Pyramids North Face Corridor aligns with proposed ramp system

Key facts
- The North Face Corridor discovered by the Scan Pyramids mission aligns with one of the ramps proposed in the model
- The ramp also aligns with a cavity on the corner edge of the pyramid
- Intense wear observed at the pyramid's corners, particularly in the southeast, may mark entry points where the greatest flow of blocks occurred
- The researcher shared code and datasets on Zenodo for egyptologists and engineers to test and refine the model
- The computational framework can be adapted to test construction theories for other pyramids such as the Red, Bent, and Meidum pyramids
