Ancient Egyptians (2005) Season 1

the reign of King Sneferu, who popularised the building of pyramids and increased Egypt's political and military strength. With footage of pyramid sites never before filmed, the documentary includes an investigation of the burial site of Sneferu's mysterious wife, Hetepheres.
