Giza pyramids ‘tip of iceberg’, above megastructures scientists claim | History | News
A team of Italian researchers stunned the world last March when they unveiled the discovery of an enormous underground network that stretches almost 3,500 feet below Egypt’s Giza Plateau and connects chambers the size of city blocks.
Now Filippo Biondi, the radar expert responsible for the imaging methodology, has come forward with what he describes as compelling evidence.
In a recent interview on Jesse Michels’s American Alchemy podcast, Mr. Biondi explained that four separate satellite operators – Umbra, Capella Space, ICEYE and Italy’s Cosmo-SkyMed – each produce the same raw tomography data showing the same underground formations.
Mr Biondi said: “All four satellites produced exactly the same results. This is truly remarkable. We cannot announce anything without these basic scientific checks.”
Mr. Biondi’s team studies tiny vibrations on the Earth’s surface using the synthetic aperture radar Doppler tomography method he developed. These vibrations, he explains, contain acoustic “fingerprints” from structures thousands of meters below ground, allowing the software to create 3D reconstructions even though radar signals never actually penetrate the earth.
It claims that scans have revealed eight massive hollow cylinders extending vertically downwards from the base of the pyramid of Khafre, the central structure of the three major pyramids.
Each shaft allegedly houses a central pillar covered in meticulous coils of coils and terminates more than 3,500 feet below the plateau in cubic chambers approximately 260 feet long on each side; This dwarfs many contemporary sports arenas.
Mr Biondi said: “The pyramids are just the tip of the iceberg. They are just the capstone of something much bigger below the surface. The real structure is below.”
When asked if the spiral formations were natural geological phenomena, he responded categorically: “Not by chance. Man-made. You don’t see perfect spirals like this in geology.”
However, among them the well-known Egyptologist Dr. Many mainstream authorities, including Zahi Hawass, have dismissed the allegations as “fake news” since they emerged in the spring.
Hawass claimed that the radar-based technique could not capture images at the depths claimed by the Italian team.
Despite the backlash, researchers claim to have pressed ahead, claiming to have identified similar – but smaller – patterns under the third pyramid, Menkaure, as well as a single large shaft beneath the Sphinx. The same spiral-shaft geometry was discovered 30 miles away at Hawara, a place ancient writers called the Labyrinth.
The Giza complex consists of three pyramids (Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure) built 4,500 years ago on a rocky plateau on the west bank of the Nile River in northern Egypt. To date, the team has recorded depths exceeding 3,280 feet, more than half a mile deep.
