Researchers Claim To Have Discovered 'Vast City' Underneath Egypt's Pyramids
Two Researchers from Italy and Scotland claim to have discovered a sprawling underground city beneath the pyramids in Egypt.
The Daily Mail reports that the researchers say they've found eight vertical cylinder-shaped structures extending more than 2,100 feet below the pyramid and more unknown structures 4,000 feet deeper.
Corrado Malanga, from Italy's University of Pisa, and Filippo Biondi with the University of Strathclyde in Scotland Say they used radar pulses to create high-resolution images deep into the ground beneath the three Pyramids and observed massive structures 10 times larger than the pyramids themselves.
To put this into perspective, the World Trade Center Freedom Tower is 541 meters high. These supposed shafts are 100m taller and there are eight of them.
They claim to have seen spiral structures on the sides of the shafts.

Nicole Ciccolo, the project's spokesperson stated that the cylinder structures were found underneath each of the three pyramids and appeared 'to serve as access points to this underground system.'
The study has not been peer reviewed or published yet, and predictably already faces ridicule from archeologists and scientists who are, let's say, less than open to the history of ancient world being turned upside down.
'The existence of vast chambers beneath the earth's surface, comparable in size to the pyramids themselves, which have a remarkably strong correlation between the legendary Halls of Amenti,' Ciccolo further claimed.
'These new archaeological findings could redefine our understanding of the sacred topography of ancient Egypt, providing spatial coordinates for previously unknown and unexplored subterranean structures,' she added.

Massive Underground Structures Found Beneath Giza Pyramids Spark Ancient Energy Grid Conspiracy Theories
A stunning new radar study has sent shockwaves across the internet, revealing a vast subterranean complex beneath the Pyramids of Giza—challenging long-held beliefs that the structures were built solely as royal tombs. Using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) tomography, scientists Corrado Malanga of the University of Pisa and Filippo Biondi of the University of Strathclyde scanned the Khafre Pyramid and uncovered what appears to be an underground system stretching two kilometers beneath all three major pyramids. The findings, made public through a scientific paper and a press release issued on March 15, detail five identical multi-level structures connected by geometric passageways near the base of the Khafre Pyramid. Even more striking were the eight vertical cylindrical wells, encircled by spiral pathways descending 648 meters below the surface. These wells ultimately merge into two massive cube-shaped chambers—each measuring 80 meters on each side. A video from the Reese Report declared that the revelation 'challenges the long-held belief that the pyramids served solely as royal tombs.' Instead, it adds fuel to fringe theories that have circulated for decades—suggesting these structures may have had a mechanical or even energy-producing function. SCIENTISTS CLAIM MASSIVE UNDERGROUND STRUCTURES BENEATH GIZA PYRAMIDSNew radar imaging research suggests a 2-kilometer underground complex beneath the Giza pyramids, featuring interconnected chambers, spiraling wells, and massive cubic structures. Theories like these aren't new. Inventor Nikola Tesla once speculated that the pyramids might collect and harness Earth's natural energy. Engineer Christopher Dunn echoed similar ideas in his book The Giza Power Plant, proposing that the Great Pyramid operated as a giant machine capable of converting seismic vibrations into usable energy. Naturally, the internet couldn't help but theorize. 'The megastructure they just found underneath the Giza Pyramids is probably the most important discovery to ever be made in our lifetimes,' one user posted on X. Others have jumped to conclusions about pre-flood civilizations or alien technology, with some comparing the discovery to a scene straight out of National Treasure 3. Archaeologists have discovered huge, spiral-shaped cylindrical structures stretching over 600 meters (about 2,000 feet) straight down beneath the Great Pyramid of Giza. These massive findings, located more than 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) below the pyramid's base, hint at enormous… — Historic Vids (@historyinmemes) March 20, 2025 The megastructure they just found underneath the Giza Pyramids is probably the most important discovery to ever be made in our lifetimes — glass🪞delusions (@glassdelusions) March 20, 2025 An artist rendering of the radar scans recently made public of the largest artificially made structures on Earth under the Giza pyramid complex. Instead, researchers like Dr. Sara Schrader from the University of Leiden noted that the bones bore the marks of laborers. Her team concluded that 'pyramid tombs, once thought to be the final resting place of the most elite, may have also included low-status high-labor staff.' While mainstream Egyptologists still insist the pyramids were built around 2500 BCE using ramps and simple tools, the newly discovered anomalies—combined with the structures' mathematical precision—have sparked renewed interest in alternative narratives. The Khafre Project team has reportedly expressed interest in excavating the site, but Egypt's government has long been cautious about approving digs that challenge its official stance on the pyramids' historical purpose. For now, the mystery remains buried—both literally and figuratively.
