With the emergence of technologies in the first two decades of the 21st century, it becomes evident that usage of Information and Communication Technologies should be extended to Culture and Cultural Heritage domains.
Throughout the world, many examples and success stories have been achieved. It is believed that those stories should be highlighted and disseminated to expand knowledge and create new opportunities and applications.
In this Lecture, we will expose how ICT may contribute to better knowledge of various cultures, how ICT may be used to disseminate and exchange information about cultural heritage sites, and probably draw a potential strategy for the contribution of ICT in Cultural Heritage.

To scan the internal structure of the Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu) and were able to determine the existence of previously unknown voids within the pyramid.
