The mystery of an 'underground city' under the pyramid of Egypt is deepened as scientists have shared new details about what more than 4000 feet can be below the surface.
A team of Italian researchers claimed that they have discovered gigantic vertical shafts wrapped in 'spiral stairs' and a huge limestone platform that contains two huge rooms with falling channels that resemble piping pipes.
During a newsletter released on Saturday, the researchers said that a water system was identified under the platform, located more than 2,100 feet under the Khafre pyramid, with underground paths that led even deeper into the earth.
The team Used radar pulses to make high -resolution images deep in the ground under the structures, in the same way as Sonarradar is used to map the depths of the ocean.
While the bomb claims have been rejected by other experts as 'false' and 'exaggerated', the team believes that there is 'a whole hidden world of many structures' more than 2000 feet below the water system
'When we increase the images [in the future]We will reveal that it is underneath what can only be described as a real underground city, “said Corrado Malanga from the Italian University of Pisa in a statement translated into English.
The work of the scientists, not assessed by independent researchers, has also suggested that 'the Pyramid of Khafre can hide undiscovered secrets, in particular the legendary Hall of Records. '
The Hall of Records is a legendary concept that is often linked to the ancient Egyptian tradition. It is believed that it is a hidden room under the large pyramid or the sphinx, with huge amounts of lost wisdom and knowledge about the old civilization.
The mystery of an 'underground city' under the pyramid of Egypt is deepened as scientists have shared new details about what is more than 4000 feet below the surface.
Professor Lawrence Conyers, a radar expert at the University of Denver who focuses on archeology, said Dailymail.com that it is not possible that the technology that penetrates deep into the ground, making the idea an underground city 'an enormous exaggeration'.
However, he suggested that the conceivable small structures, such as shafts and rooms, can exist among the pyramids that were there before the pyramids were built, because the site was' special for old people
He emphasized how “the Maya and other peoples in old Meso -America often built pyramids on top of the entrances to caves or caves that had ceremonial significance for them.”
The work of Malanga, Filippo Biondi of the University of Strathclyde in Scotland, and Egyptologist Armando May was previously only discussed in a personal briefing in Italy last week.
The spokesperson for the project, Nicole Ciccolo, shared a new video of those who discussed the research on Saturday that still has to be published in a scientific journal, where they must be analyzed by independent experts.
The team focused on the Khafre -Piramide, one of the three pyramids of the Giza complex. The other two are Khufu and Menkaure.
All three were built 4,500 years ago on a rocky plateau on the western bank of the river Nile in northern Egypt, and were Built in the name of a pharaoh.
The vertical shafts that were identified under Khafre were approximately 33 to 39 feet in diameter, located at a depth of at least 2,130 feet. The team suggested that the structures could support the pyramid.
'We have done calculations and saw that the Khafre pyramid is incredibly heavy and to keep it up, he needs a solid foundation. Otherwise it will sink, “said Malanga.
Ciccolo also noted that the cylinder structures seemed to 'serve as access points to this underground system'.
The team claimed that they discovered eight cylindrical structures under the Khafre, which travel more than 2,100 feet under the base of the pyramid. They identified spiral structures on the sides of the shafts
Displayed is a scan of the shafts under the pyramid. The vertical shafts are approximately 33 to 39 feet in diameter, located at a depth of at least 2,130 feet. The team suggested that the structure could support the pyramid
During the press conference, the team explained that they sent radar signals of two satellites, about 420 miles above the earth, in the Khafre pyramid, allowing them to analyze how the signals bounced back. Shown are hidden structures identified in the pyramid
Under the shafts, the team identified two massive rectangular housings, each measuring approximately 260 feet per side. According to the researchers, each of these housings contain four shafts that extend from the top and descend down.
During the briefing, the team showed an image created by the pulses that the Khafre pyramid recorded on the surface together with the shafts.
The image also included 'a complex, light structure with different vibrations', which according to them is 'a real underground city'.
“The existence of large rooms under the earth's surface, similar to the pyramids themselves, has a remarkably strong correlation between the legendary halls of Amenti,” Ciccolo said.
In October 2022, Malanga and Biondi published a separate peer-reviewed paper in the Scientific Journal Remote Sensing, which found hidden rooms and slopes in Khafre, along with proof of a thermal deviation near the base of the pyramid.
The team claims that this scan shows a 'vast city' that hides under the pyramid (shown in luminous colors)

The new study used comparable technology, but benefited from satellites in a job around the earth.
During the press conference, the team explained that they sent radar signals of two satellites, about 420 miles above the earth, in the Khafre pyramid, allowing them to analyze how the signals bounced back.
The signals were then converted into sound waves, so that they can 'see' through the massive stone. This method helped to map hidden underground structures in 3D.
The measurements were completely consistent and excluded every chance of incorrect interpretation as a result of sound reflections, “said Malanga.
“Since every satellite from a different perspective, their results must join us to reliably consider the data,” he added.
“If something appears in the scan of one satellite, but not that of the other, we know it is a false signal or an artifact.”
