Scientists scanned the area under the pyramids using a special radar. The results of the study showed the existence of eight vertical shafts going hundreds of meters down. Based on these data, scientists have suggested that there may be a series of underground structures under the pyramids.

However, many Egyptologists were skeptical of the conclusions drawn. Even modern scanning technologies can be flawed, they say, and it’s too early to make any statements without actual excavations.

By the way, a secret passage was previously found in the Cheops pyramid. It is stated that the secret passage probably serves to redistribute the load at the main entrance. This design ensured equal distribution of weight and pressure, preventing it from collapsing over time.
