Thank you today for the article, introduced: "This pyramid's unimpressive physical proportions – roughly 1:30th the size of the Great Pyramid of Giza – and ruined state, deterred much exploration until the turn of the 20th century. When Borchardt finally pulled it out of the desert, however, he discovered a quite remarkable pyramid complex. Spread across its walls were an estimated 10,000m2 of masterfully crafted relief art. Special mention must be made of a scene of Sahure hunting for the brutality of its imagery. Unfortunately, the relief is fragmented. Of the section presented in the article, I'd draw your attention to the bottom left where a horned herbivore has an arrow impaling its forehead while a hyena, equally speared, leaps at its throat. The quality of the artwork was such that for two millennia, pharaohs returned to copy the artwork for their own constructions... and to steal limestone, there was a lot of stone-thieving."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:51, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks as always Gerda. FAC is exhausting enough, TFA adds all the same pressure but with sporadic vandalism to boot. Mr rnddude (talk) 13:05, 19 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You survived it! - I like my talk today (actually mostly from 29 May - I took the title pic), enjoy the music, two related videos worth watching! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:56, 31 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
