Scientists on a mission to prove a ‘vast city’ sits more than 4,000 feet below Egypt‘s Giza Pyramids have released a new analysis they say proves the findings to be true.
Last week, the team in Italy presented bombshell research that claimed to have discovered multi-thousand-foot-tall wells and chambers under the Khafre Pyramid.
If true, it would turn Egyptian – and human – history on its head, though independent experts have said the discovery is ‘completely wrong’ and lacked any scientific basis.
Researchers said they determined ‘a confidence level well above 85 percent’ that the ‘structures identified beneath the Pyramid of Khafre, as well as those beneath other pyramids on the Giza Plateau,’ exist.
The wells and chambers were identified by sending ‘high-frequency electromagnetic waves’ into the subsurface, and the way signals bounced back allowed researchers to map structures beneath the pyramid.
The team used ‘a specialized algorithm’ to process the data and create the images that showed what looked like wells with spiral formations leading to enormous chambers.
They cross checked the structures with known architectural forms, ‘specifically those accessible to us today, such as the Pozzo di San Patrizio in Italy,’ Niccole Ciccole, the project’s spokesperson, shared with Dailymail.com.
Professor Lawrence Conyers, a radar expert at the University of Denver who focuses on archaeology and was not involved in the study, said: ‘To make correlation confidence levels there needs to be something to correlate to or compare to.
‘What could that be here? Without that, these percentages are meaningless scientifically.’
However, Professor Conyers suggested that it is conceivable that small structures, such as shafts and chambers, may exist beneath the pyramids, having been there before the pyramids were built, because the site was ‘special to ancient people.’
He highlighted how ‘the Mayans and other peoples in ancient Mesoamerica often built pyramids on top of the entrances to caves or caverns that had ceremonial significance to them.’
The team claimed they found eight wells and two enormous enclosures more than 2,000 feet below the base of the Khafre pyramid and ‘an entire hidden world of many structures’ another 2,000 feet below those
‘I am skeptical of the deeper claims. If their ‘algorithms’ can do what they say (I can’t comment on those), then perhaps this will hold up,’ Professor Conyers said.
‘A ‘well’ or ‘tunnel’ is what I would expect under a pyramid.’
The work by Corrado Malanga from Italy’s University of Pisa, Filippo Biondi with the University of Strathclyde in Scotland and Egyptologist Armando Mei has not yet been published in a scientific journal for the review of independent experts.
The team sent the analysis to DailyMail.com, where they admitted ‘further validation is recommended through additional tomographic scans and in-situ verification.’
To determine if anything was hiding below the Pyramid of Khafre, they sent high-frequency waves (similar to how radar works) into the ground beneath the pyramid.
