  False entrance of Zoser Step Pyramid

In order to get a peaceful rest and to safeguard belongings, all pyramids have their false entrances to confuse and discourage Lara Croft... err, I mean tomb raiders...

This false entrance descend roughly 250 meter, it effectively protect the Zoser Step Pyramid for more than 4000 years until recent excavation by archeologists. This was made possible as time is always not on tomb raiders' sides and the actual entrance lies just besides this false one.
