The Middle Pyramid Megalithic Complex - Vastly Ancient, was this the FIRST to be Built at Giza?

An investigation into Giza's massive and megalithic Middle Pyramid complex - is it possible that this was the FIRST pyramid built on the plateau, before the Great Pyramid? We dive into the history, details, and evidence for advanced ancient technology in these engimatic structures, including the Pyramid itself, the Mortuary and Valley Temple, the Causeway, and of course the Great Sphinx. We pose the question: did King Khafre really build all this - or was some of it inherited from earlier times?

Part 1 of a 2 part series, Part 2 coming soon!
