Queen Sofia of Spain visits Saqqara with Hawass

guardians.net

Another update to Hawass's pages hosted on the guardians.net site gives an account of Hawass guiding Queen Sofia of Spain around Saqqara, and shows photos of them at the Imhotep Museum and inside the Step Pyramid. There is another short comment about work on a "headless pyramid" being carried out at the site:

Queen Sofia also visited the excavation area of the “Headless Pyramid,” in which an Egyptian mission supervised by Dr. Hawass is working. A group of galleries and crypts, a sarcophagus which is believed to belong to the Middle Kingdom, and a burial chamber were discovered in this area.
