Scientists claim new discovery involving the pyramids might change history as we know it
In this DML Report…
Italian researchers from the University of Pisa, led by Corrado Malanga, claim to have discovered a massive underground network beneath Egypt’s Giza pyramids using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) technology. Their study, not yet peer-reviewed as of March 25, identified eight vertical cylindrical shafts, 33 to 39 feet wide, descending over 2,100 feet below the Khafre Pyramid, one of the Giza complex’s three pyramids built 4,500 years ago. The team also detected deeper structures at 4,000 feet, including two 260-foot-wide rectangular enclosures and a limestone platform with water channels, suggesting a foundational role for the pyramid’s stability.
The researchers assert these findings point to a “vast underground city” predating the pyramids by tens of thousands of years, estimating the structures at 38,000 years old—far older than the previously oldest known man-made structure, Turkey’s Göbekli Tepe, at 11,000 years. They used SAR, combining satellite radar with seismic vibrations, to map the subsurface without digging, focusing on Khafre, the middle pyramid of the Giza trio alongside Khufu and Menkaure. Malanga argues the pyramid’s weight—millions of tons—requires such a foundation, while spokesperson Nicole Ciccolo ties the discovery to ancient myths like the Hall of Records, though no excavation has confirmed these claims.

Experts are skeptical, with University of Denver radar specialist Lawrence Conyers questioning the technology’s ability to penetrate 4,000 feet, calling the “vast city” label a stretch. Egyptologist Zahi Hawass dismissed the findings as baseless, and the Egyptian government has not approved digs to verify them. Critics note Malanga’s UFOlogy background and lack of peer review undermine credibility, though Conyers allows that smaller pre-existing shafts or chambers could exist, akin to Mesoamerican pyramid sites.
