Scientists have long been baffled by the wonders of the ancient world, particularly the Egyptian pyramids. Now a key part of this mystery may have an explanation.

The discovery of an extinct waterway explains why the ancient pyramids are clustered miles from the River Nile.

Archaeologists have identified segments of a 64-km-long extinct branch of the river Nile, which they name the Ahramat Branch, running at the foothills of the Western Desert Plateau, where the majority of the ancient Egyptian pyramids lie.

Scientists have discovered a long-buried branch of the Nile River that once flowed alongside more than 30 pyramids in Egypt, potentially solving the mystery of how ancient Egyptians transported the massive stone blocks to build the famous monuments.

Scientists have discovered a long-buried branch of the Nile river that once flowed alongside more than 30 pyramids in Egypt, potentially solving the mystery of how ancient Egyptians transported the massive stone blocks to build the famous monuments.

The 40-mile-long river branch, which ran by the Giza pyramid complex, was hidden under desert and farmland for millennia, scientists said.

Archaeologists have discovered that the famous structures could have been built along a long-lost branch of the river Nile.

The newly identified 64-kilometre-long branch of the river, named The Ahramat, would have provided an essential water route for transporting goods.

Discovery of the branch, which ran alongside 31 pyramids, could solve mystery of blocks’ transportation
