A SECOND Sphinx detected in Egypt as scans hint at 'underground megastructure'

Ancient Egyptians may have left behind a cryptic clue to a hidden second Sphinx, carved directly into stone more than 3,000 years ago.

The Dream Stele, positioned between the paws of the Great Sphinx, appears to depict two sphinx figures, hinting that the legendary monument may once have had a twin.

Now, Italian researchers who, in 2025, claimed to have uncovered massive underground structures beneath the Giza Plateau believe they have identified the second guardian buried deep beneath the sands.

Filippo Biondi revealed the discovery on Thursday while speaking on the Matt Beall Limitless podcast, explaining that lines drawn from the pyramids to the known Sphinx point to an identical mirrored location where the buried structure is believed to lie...

Using satellite radar technology capable of detecting subtle ground vibrations, Biondi claimed the data points to a massive structure concealed beneath a 180-foot-high mound of hardened sand, which he said is composed of solidified sand rather than natural bedrock.

Preliminary scans show vertical shafts and passageways strikingly similar to those already found beneath the original Sphinx, with dense vertical lines believed to represent the solid walls of underground shafts rather than empty voids.

Beyond the possible second Sphinx, Biondi believes the findings hint at something even larger, an extensive underground complex beneath the Giza Plateau itself.

Thanks for the link! We need some laughs around here.

There can be on only One.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Be interesting if true.

Probably isn't.

But the sands cover up many odd things.

looks like DM has run out of regular lies to publish for a while and have been forced to turn back to this "hundreds of miles below the pyramids" underground insanity, complete with cartoon outline drawings like sorta this one:

[FrankRizzo890]

INB4 the bureau of antiquities rules that ground penetrating radar can no longer be used. Where directly on the ground, or from a satellite.

(The problem here is that if the structures turn out to be older than the Egyptians SAY they are, it diminishes their place in history, and their egos won’t allow that to happen).

Plus it’s long been assumed by many that there were two the entire time. What I want to know is does it have a lion head or a sphinx?

Maybe educate yourself before posting stupidity like this. The scans showing massive rooms, structures, etc below the pyramids and sphinx are real science, not gossip.

Biondi is a fraud as are the findings of his science

[Who is John Galt?]

...The scans showing massive rooms, structures, etc below the pyramids and sphinx are real science, not gossip.

Geophysical data can often be interpreted in multiple ways. Any individual interpretation may be "real science", but it may not necessarily reflect reality...

Egypt will never allow anyone to remove a shovel full of sand from that area. Ever.
