False - as of 2008 there have been 138 pyramids found throughout Egypt; as best we can gather, there have been 39 pyramids found throughout Peru (10 along the coast, 26 in Túcume, 1 in Cahuachi, 2 in Sipán). The terrain in both regions have overgrown and covered up many of the pyramids that are beginning to be uncovered, documented, and explored today. The most recent discovery in Peru was the pyramid in Cahuachi in late 2008 (announced in October of 2008) where researchers used satellite based sensors that were able to see through layers of mud and rock. The most recent Egyptian Pyramid was also found in late 2008 (announced in November of 2008). Researchers have little doubt there are many more pyramids to be found in both locations.
