In this video, we dive into a mysterious journey through Egyptian history, focusing on the enigma of Menkaura's lost sarcophagus. We detail how, in the late 1830s, Menkaura's sarcophagus was loaded onto the British schooner Beatrice, bound for London, but a storm sank it near the coast of Cartagena. The video explores the expeditions and conflicts that led to this situation, including the destructive tactics of explorers like Howard Vyse in their search for treasures in the pyramids. It also mentions the attempt to recover the sarcophagus in the 21st century, interrupted by the Arab Spring.
