Two previously unknown 'cavities' found in Giza's Great Pyramid

Non-invasive scanning technologies have revealed that the Great Pyramid still has significant secrets, 4,500 years after it was built.

The potential secret chamber in Tutankhamun's tomb may have been ruled a bust, but it looks like there are still secrets in the burial chambers of the pharaohs. The Great Pyramid of Giza, the oldest and largest of the three Giza pyramids -- and, at 4,500 years old the oldest of the world's Seven Wonders -- still has some hidden chambers, new data reveals.

For 12 months, the ScanPyramids project, under the authority of the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities, has been using a range of cutting edge scanning technologies to search for hidden chambers -- and now it's found two, it has reported. Using infrared thermography, muon radiography and 3D reconstruction, the team located the cavities on the north face and northeastern edge.

Intriguing anomaly found inside the Great Pyramid at Giza

Intriguing anomaly found inside the Great Pyramid at Giza
Using muography, scientists find evidence of a possible hidden chamber
ANNALEE NEWITZ - 10/18/2016, 2:20 PM

It could be the ultimate archaeological discovery: a previously unknown chamber lurking beneath the stones of the Great Pyramid at Giza in Egypt. Now, a team using a cutting edge imaging technique called muography has picked up signals indicating a hidden corridor behind the famous chevron blocks on the pyramid's north face.

Muography can detect voids or empty spaces inside thick layers of earth or stone, and it is often used to plumb the depths of volcanoes....

The ScanningPyramids project had already found a void at ground level using thermal scanning, about a year ago.  This new find corresponds to one predicted by Jean-Pierre Houdin.

I can receive, but not send FReepmai, can't edit my Profile page, and any posts I make have to be reviewed.

Yup, me too, and that's why I'm here.  A couple of kind Freepers pointed me to this site, and I've found that I recognize several people here.  888high58888

I would think these might be remnants of the construction process but who knows, will be interesting to find out..

Well, maybe we'll find out what's in them when muslim nutjobs decide that the Pyramids are pagan symbols and must be leveled. You know, like these things...

How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

I'd pay good money to watch them try to blow up the pyramids.

Every once in a while some koranimoron calls for the Pyramids to be destroyed.  They seem to have no idea that it has been tried before, and along with one of the caliph's having a tunnel chipped into Khufu, actually mark the treasure hunting that has gone on.

Very little has been said about Bob Brier's brief exploration of the "notch" chamber, which is located about halfway up the Great Pyramid, and corresponds to Jean-Pierre Houdin's hypothesized spiral internal ramp.
