Hi Warwick

The early researchers claimed that a mysterious draft sometimes blew through the corridors of the Bent. Some egyptologists believe that still undiscoverd chambers could be at the origin of this phenomenon. IIRC Hawass even claims in his book "Mountains of the Pharao's" that Sneferu's final burial is located in an undiscovered chamber of this pyramid.

Personally I find all the secret (burial) chamber stories rather farfetched. If there are still chambers to be discoverd in 4th dyn. pyramids I believe they will be relieving chambers / corridors like the ones found in Meidum.
