Dancing at the Seneferu Pyramid
Category: Expedition & Excavation Footage
Length: 00:36
| Film Description | This man is one of many diggers at the excavation of the Seneferu Pyramid in 1929. Maybe it was the presence of the motion picture camera that inspired him to start dancing. Notice the reaction of his fellow workers. For some, the inspiration to start singing and dancing may be rather commonplace, but others start to smile and clap along. Work of the Eckley B. Coxe, Jr. Expedition of the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, 1929-1930.
