Discovering More of the Pyramids

It’s a newly pictured hidden corridor above the main entrance of the Great Pyramid of Giza. First detected in 2016 with hi-tech imaging equipment, the secret walkway was filmed using a quarter-inch-wide endoscope fed through a tiny joint in between the stones. It’s around 30 feet long and seven feet wide – and, as yet, archaeologists aren’t sure what lies at the end of it.

What are the odds it was a Pharoah’s dunny? We all know what’s at the bottom of a dunny :grin:

Satellite burials perhaps?
As far as the pyramids are concerned it defies imagination as to how each and every block was cut, transported, placed and ultimately finished with limestone casing.

It’s just one of those things, the more you think about it the more perplexing it becomes.

I like that!

How fascinating I’m wondering if it was just a service tunnel used for lowering things down into the chamber below?

It is very intriguing, the vaulted ceiling suggests weight relieving I think.
I’m hoping that there’s going to be something special within the corridor.
