Dr Chris Naunton believes, despite having felt quite optimistic about the discovery of the "big void" in Khufu's pyramid several years ago, the efforts at the site are being severely hampered by government restrictions and bureaucracy, which puts off quite a few Ancient Egypt enthusiasts working there...
Five years ago, the ScanPyramids project was launched to provide several non-invasive and non-destructive techniques that would improve historians' understanding of how the pyramid was constructed over 4,500 years ago. Two years later, they solemnly announced the discovery of a "Big Void" -- an intriguing 30-metre cavity located above the Grand Gallery. However, there has been no development since, and Dr Naunton, the author of Searching for the Lost Tombs of Egypt, does not expect there will be headway any time soon, fearing the contents of the pyramid will continue to be hidden from the public eye...
Giza attracts bunches of theories about mystic energy, aliens, and alike -- something that makes the archaeological spot "even worse"...
The historian had previously put forward a possible solution to finally make a huge discovery. "Would it be possible to put a fibre-optic camera through the wall and see what's behind there? That seems to me to be a solution", he claimed, suggesting that it might even be possible to do that without causing too much damage to the wall, which has already been extensively renovated. Whatever the case, even if technically possible, Egypt's Ministry of Antiquities would be very wary of the public reaction to putting a camera through the wall, "only to find there's nothing there", Naunton rounded off.

Trump should announce he wants $90 billion to build a pyramid honoring him. It would be worth it because Pelosi would have a coronary

He should also say that Canada is going to pay for it since they allowed that woman to mail ricin from there.

A good chance it was looted long ago. It would still be interesting to see what is still in the void area.
LOL!!
We’ve been watching a show that discusses the stone work of numerous worldwide structures built way before BC. Some of the stone work is precision cut, no tool markings, with inside square cutouts that cannot are difficult to do today. Some stone work weighs hundreds of tons. What needs to be found out is how did they do it?
When the hell are people going to stop covering for this bitch?
Aliens, of course!
;)
I thought the structures were giant, Govt owned, pork projects for pumping water.

The true entrance to the 8 sided Great pyramid was unknown. Until the muslims came the pyramid was covered in white limestone blocks with no way in. The muslims carted the stones way to build Cairo, but still no entrance was revealed.The sealed monument was first entered by chipping and blasting through the stone at more or less a random point. This was done at the order of the caliph who ruled Egypt in the 7th century AD. He was very disappointed that nothing was found as he needed the treasure that he supposed lay within.
There is absolutely nothing that indicates it was ever intended as a tomb, other than the somewhat battered granite sarcophagus built to tolerance of 0.003 inches from true. Copper tools and pounding stones cannot create such a thing, let alone even scratch the surface.
There is better evidence that the whole of the Giza plateau was build as one thing from one master plan. Still more evidence suggests that the Great Pyramid functioned as some sort of machine perhaps in conjunction with the many obelisks which were capped with electrum (white gold) and all that had something to do with sunrise, sunset and the solstices. There is more going on there than most think.

Told me to my face the morning after Trump was elected that we'd all be sorry. FBI did an exhaustive investigation and came up with a "hmmmm". "We don't know why, can't figure this one out. Total mystery."
