A groundbreaking radar study has sparked widespread fascination and debate after uncovering a massive underground complex beneath the Pyramids of Giza, challenging the traditional belief that these ancient structures were built solely as royal tombs.
Using advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) tomography, researchers Corrado Malanga from the University of Pisa and Filippo Biondi from the University of Strathclyde conducted scans of the Khafre Pyramid. Their findings, published in a scientific paper and a press release on March 15, reveal an extensive subterranean network stretching two kilometers beneath all three major pyramids.
The study highlights five multi-level structures, identical in design and connected by geometric passageways, located near the base of the Khafre Pyramid. Even more intriguing are the eight vertical cylindrical wells, surrounded by spiral pathways, which descend 648 meters below the surface. These wells converge into two enormous cube-shaped chambers, each measuring 80 meters on each side.
A video from the Reese Report emphasized that the discovery “challenges the long-held belief that the pyramids served exclusively as royal tombs.” Instead, it has reignited fringe theories suggesting the pyramids may have had mechanical or energy-related functions.
Theories about the pyramids’ potential as energy sources are not new. Inventor Nikola Tesla once speculated that the pyramids could harness Earth’s natural energy. Similarly, engineer Christopher Dunn, in his book *The Giza Power Plant*, proposed that the Great Pyramid functioned as a massive machine capable of converting seismic vibrations into usable energy.
The discovery has ignited a flurry of speculation online. One user on X (formerly Twitter) declared, “The megastructure they just found underneath the Giza Pyramids is probably the most important discovery to ever be made in our lifetimes.” Others have drawn connections to pre-flood civilizations or extraterrestrial technology, with some likening the findings to a scene from *National Treasure 3*.
While mainstream Egyptologists maintain that the pyramids were constructed around 2500 BCE using ramps and basic tools, the newly uncovered anomalies—combined with the structures’ remarkable mathematical precision—have fueled interest in alternative explanations.
The Khafre Project team has expressed interest in excavating the site, but Egypt’s government has historically been cautious about approving digs that challenge the official narrative regarding the pyramids’ purpose. For now, the mystery of what lies beneath the Giza Plateau remains unresolved, leaving both experts and enthusiasts eager for further exploration.
