The shaft is located on the southern side of the Queen's Chamber--another inaccurate name, as there's no evidence it was ever used for Cheops' queen. The stone block is named after Robotic Engineer Rudolph Gantenbrink, who was hired to install ventilation fans in the pyramid. In 1993 , he convinced the Egypt ian government to allow him to send a small robot up the 213-foot shaft for exploration purposes, discovering the wall that would soon bear his name. |
