A robot has sent back the first images of markings on the wall of a tiny chamber in the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt that have not been seen for 4500 years. It has also helped settle the controversy about the only metal known to exist in the pyramid, and shows a "door" that could lead to another hidden chamber.
The pyramid is thought to have been built as a tomb for the pharaoh Khufu, and is the last of the seven wonders of the ancient world still standing. It contains three main chambers: the Queen's Chamber, the Grand Gallery and the King's Chamber, which has two air shafts connecting it with the outside world. Strangely, though, there are two tunnels, about 20 centimetres by 20 centimetres, that extend from the north and south walls of the Queen's Chamber and stop at stone doors before they reach the outside of the pyramid (see diagram).
The function of these tunnels and doors is unknown, but some believe that one or both could lead to a secret chamber. Zahi Hawass, Egypt's Minister of State for Antiquities Affairs, describes the doors as the last great mystery of the pyramid.

Now now, to be fair, the only reason that Muzzies rape, disfigure, maim, cripple, murder, and mass-murder is because we haven’t got rid of them.
Yet.
There’s really no choice, them or us.
There is a third way, but I don’t see any indications that mooselimbs want to moderate their religion. Thier god, allah, lesser moon goddess cum supreme devil, is a bloodthirsty demon who will not be denied his rivers of blood. As the Palestinians raise their children to be blood lusting murderers, even teaching them to be dead to the outrageous by killing kittens puppies for teaching lessons of deadening them to slaughter, there is no reversal short of near or toal annihilation for such primitives!

I think they lack faith in the power of their Allah myself, which is why they destroy any evidence of all other faiths.

And you nerver will, since they are commanded to never alter anything in their cult books, under pain of death by all other muslims. So sayith allah and reafimed by mohammad.
It is important to recall that when the sealed Great Pyramid was first opened by work gangs employed by the caliph, absolutely nothing was found in the then accessable parts of the pyramid including the King’s Chamber.
The caliph was hugely dissapointed and angered at being deprived of the loot he was denied.
So when you read that Egyptologists speculate about what was or was not in the pyramid they are lying to build up their prestige and gain more grant monies. * ref paragraph 10 in the story.
The whole bit about the pyramid being a tomb was started by Herodotus and taken as truth ever since. Whatever the Great Pyramid is, it is not a tomb.
my 2 cents
fascinating but the pics dont really show much. i was surprised they were drilling holes in stuff.
wonder what the tax rate was 4500 years ago?
For some strange reason, I feel the use of the Great Pyramid may have been somehow related to the ‘use’ of the Arch of the Covenant. The Hebrews believed it carried some technological power to aid in defeating enemies and in communicating with God. It contained three items, at least one of which may have been somehow sort of irradiated stuff to remain a receptacle of power source like a battery or capacitor —the ephod of manna. The other two items were Aaron’s rod that budded and the tablets of stone, and taken together may have been the source of some technology, since God infused life to the cut rod and wrote the commandments with His hand.
Absolutely.
The Great Pyramid was built for Khufu; if it wasn’t his tomb at one time, it was a cenotaph, but it’s far more likely that it was his tomb. Stating that it wasn’t a tomb is just an unsupported opinion. His mother was entombed next to it, something which is known because her tomb was robbed while the pyramid was under construction, and the story was written down and survives.
The known architect of the Great Pyramid was Khufu’s cousin, Hemiunu. His statue was found around a hundred years ago, interred near the Great Pyramid. His own burial was looted long ago.

The Great Pyramid wasn’t opened first by the caliph, it was open during antiquity. The Byzantines finally resealed it, and did such a nice job that the caliph’s henchmen couldn’t spot the opening and chipped away the entrance used today.
Hellenistic-era and Roman-era tourists had access to the Grand Gallery and the rest of the currently known chambers, but if they crawled into the relieving chamber above the King’s Chamber, they left no trace. The relieving chambers above the bottommost were mined into in modern times.
In one of those relieving chambers is a 4500 year old graffito which reads, “how mighty is the Great White Crown of Khufu (work) gang.”
An early Egyptologist recorded the fragments of the texts inside the Great Pyramid, they were painted on plaster (a common practice), and referred to such-and-such a year of Khufu’s reign, year of the cattle drive. That last trace of the original Old Kingdom writing has since fallen away to dust.
Some, not all, of the limestone finishing facing blocks on the outside of the pyramid were inscribed with hieroglyphic writing, and that was remarked on by visitors in classical antiquity. Most of the facing stones were hauled away in Muzzie times to build structures in Cairo, and none of the remaining blocks have writing.
The other writing on the Great Pyramid can be seen above the original entrance. Since it doesn’t use any known Egyptian writing system, it probably dates to the period when the Pyramid was open to ancient tourists.

I don’t think it’s necessary to physically take on every last one of the bastards — it appears to be a simple matter to get them to fight and kill one another. As long as that can be kept going, and they don’t run out of ammo, whittling down the worldwide Muzzie population while not take that long.
Yeah, the stuff we’re seeing is in a shaft about 9 inches on a side.
Thanks for your insights, SunkenCiv. They’re very informative.
Thank you! This is so exciting!
:-) I love your Ping List.
My pleasure.
Thanks wcs.
