Zawyet El Aryan (زاویة العریان) is a town in the Giza Governorate of Egypt, located between Giza and Abusir [1]. To the west of the town, just in the desert area, is a necropolis [examined by Egyptologist and Italian architect Alessandro Barsanti], referred to by the same name. Almost directly east across the Nile is Memphis. In Zawyet El Aryan, there are two pyramid complexes and five mastaba cemeteries. More
(Ancient Architects) Secret mission to explore Great Pyramid of Giza: Yersh 1
Michael Button, YouTube, Nov. 19, 2025; Eds., Wisdom Quarterly
(WION) After 20 years of construction, the $1 billion Grand Egyptian Museum finally opens, but rather than showing the world all that this cultural marvel might contain, Zahi "Indian Jones" Hawass has succeeded in burying the truth about the construction of the pyramids and underworld caverns, hollows, caves, and cities. Once fired for all his cover ups and claims that modern Egyptians are related to the builders, now he goes unquestioned, likely due to corrupt leadership in a nation controlled by Israel, CIA, and USA.
A second city has been uncovered below Egypt's iconic pyramids of Giza, according to Italian archeologists who discovered the massive underground structure.
Located under the Mankaure Pyramid, this colossal find may be able to "prove" how the three Giza pyramids are connected through the potential existence of a massive subterranean complex buried 2,000 feet underground.
This remarkable discovery comes after the team previously found large underground structures below the Khafre Pyramid back in March 2025.
However, this latest research isn't without contention, as some archeologists and Egyptologists, such as [nationalist mouthpiece] Dr. Zahi Hawass, have said these findings, which have not yet been peer-reviewed or published in a scientific journal, are impossible due to a lack of sufficient technology as ground-penetrating radar isn't able to analyze the surface that is thousands of feet deep.
20K-y-o labyrinth, 3K chambers hidden under Egypt’s pyramid found (The Daily Galaxy, UK)
20K-year-old labyrinth with 3K chambers hidden under Egypt’s pyramid finally found, as centuries-old claim resurfaces
A groundbreaking discovery has emerged from the sands of Egypt, where a labyrinth — hidden beneath a pyramid — could dramatically alter our understanding of ancient civilizations.
This labyrinth, boasting 3,000 rooms and multiple passageways, was once described by ancient historians like Herodotus. For centuries, the hiddenlabyrinth beneath the Hawara pyramid has sparked interest.
Herodotus, who visited Egypt in the 5th century BCE, wrote about a structure with 3,000 chambers, both above and below ground. He described the labyrinth as surpassing the pyramids in scale and complexity, though he was only able to view the upper chambers, as access to the underground levels was denied.
His accounting of this tale, rich in detail, suggests that the labyrinth was a remarkable feat of engineering, with passages that captivated all who saw it.
Atrahasis: Ark was round basket boat during flood:
Despite Herodotus’s descriptions, no direct evidence of the underground complex has been found — until recent advancements in technology.
Groundbreaking tools like satellite scans and ground-penetrating radar are now being used to investigate the site and reveal what may lie beneath the surface.
Modern discovery resurfaces the mystery
In 2023, a research paper titled “The Labyrinth, the Colossi, and the Lake” presented evidence supporting the existence of underground rooms at Hawara.
These findings align with Herodotus’s descriptions, suggesting that the labyrinth may have been a much older structure than previously thought.
Researchers used radar and satellite imaging to detect underground anomalies, potentially revealing parts of the long-hidden labyrinth.
While the discovery is promising, there remains debate within the academic community regarding its validity. Some experts express caution, while others argue that modern technology could provide the long-awaited evidence of the labyrinth’s existence.
Herodotus’s account and archeological efforts
Herodotus’s firsthand account has long been a key source of information about the labyrinth. In his writings, he described the structure as having chambers both above and below the surface. The underground sections, he claimed, were even more awe-inspiring, but access was restricted.
He further noted that the labyrinth was “greater than the pyramids” in grandeur. Modern archeology has struggled to verify this description.
In the 19th century, Sir Flinders Petrie uncovered what he believed to be the foundation of the labyrinth, but his findings were inconclusive due to limited resources and technology. Despite Petrie’s observations, definitive evidence of the labyrinth remained elusive.
The most recent use of space-based radar and electromagnetic surveys is helping uncover the truth.
These advanced technologies, unavailable during past archeological efforts, have made it possible to detect subsurface features beneath the pyramid at Hawara. The latest findings point to the existence of extensive underground structures that could align with Herodotus’s description of the labyrinth.
A 2008 expedition using electromagnetic surveys uncovered subterranean features that resembled ancient walls, indicating the possible presence of a mortuary complex or a hidden section of the labyrinth.
Recent 3D reconstructions of the area suggest two levels of underground chambers around the pyramid of Amenemhet III, further supporting the theory that the labyrinth is real.

Part 2: Massive subterranean complex UNDER Saqqara, Egypt
(Gaia) Premiered May 2, 2025: What new evidence points to a prediluvian (before The Flood) civilization in Egypt that knew how to harness the properties of stone to generate power?
Saqqara, 22 miles south of Giza, holds two of the greatest mysteries of the ancient world: the Djoser Pyramid and the Serapeum, which may be the source of power for Giza.
These monuments are the enduring legacy of Imhotep, a student of Thoth and one of Egypt’s greatest polymaths.
This subterranean complex is so vast and unexplored that the new findings are merely a fragment of the enigma surrounding Saqqara (less than 1%). Will the secrets unearthed finally reveal who built the Serapeum and why? [If it does, we can be sure Zahi Hawass will not be admitting that to the world.]

Egyptologists discover NEW pharaoh's tomb after 100 years
(Dig It With Raven) Premiered Feb. 23, 2025: Here's some BREAKING ARCHEOLOGY NEWS! Egyptologists have found the first new tomb of an Egyptian pharaoh since King Tut (the disabled boy Pharaoh Tutankhamun).
Bright Insight tells Joe Rogan facts about Egypt - Stonecutters know Egypt was not pounded out
You heard that right! It’s the first pharaoh’s tomb to have been found in over a century. This is absolutely wild. This channel doesn’t do much news much, but I HAD to share this.
Any discovery of a pharaoh’s tomb is a big deal, but the last one was found so long ago, this is big news. It is the last undiscovered royal tomb of the 18th Egyptian dynasty, the husband of the legendary Queen Hatshepsut. That’s right. They’ve found King Thutmose II’s tomb.

(Universe Inside You) Could the pit at Zawyet El Aryan have been connected to the Great Pyramid at Giza by underground electrical passages used to move water, as many have suggested?
The movement was not for the purposes of irrigation, but rather it was “electrified water” used to fuel an ancient civilization, as Brown and Hurtaks proposed.
Gold capstone, plaster insulation = electricity
Maybe this has something to do with the black residue found by Alessandro Barsanti in the pit’s oval tub. Could this be evidence of some sort of electrical burning or chemical process, the polished mirror-like tub the place where electricity was generated?
Perhaps this is why research on the site was abruptly shut down in 1964 and why it is now locked within a well-guarded military base. Perhaps beneath the pit at Zawyet El Aryan, hidden in an area Barsanti tried so hard to get to, is the proof of an electrified ancient Egypt. These are the types of secrets that would totally change our understanding of human history.

How was the Sphinx built and what did it look like? | Blowing Up History
(Quest TV) Aug. 17, 2020. The Great Sphinx at Giza is the oldest known monumental sculpture in Egypt and one of the enduring mysteries to Egyptologists. But with extensive excavation, research, and applying modern technological analysis, the story of how this enigmatic carving came to be, and what it looked like, is starting to emerge.
Graham Hancock reveals what Zahi "Indiana Jones" Hawass tries to conceal.
EDGAR CAYCE WAS RIGHT! The Sphinx's Secret: The Hidden Room that Could Rewrite History
(MindFKD w/ Patrick James) This video uncovers the mystery of an ancient time capsule hidden beneath the Great Sphinx of Giza in Egypt. Edgar Cayce predicted this hall of records would be found (even if the world was not told about it). For centuries, researchers have speculated about the existence of a secret chamber within the iconic statue. And now, using the latest technology and archeological techniques, we may finally have the answers. From ancient artifacts to long-forgotten texts, this video offers a glimpse into the history and mystery of one of the world's most iconic monuments.

Joe Rogan reacts to Secrets of Egypt's Great Sphinx of Giza
(Crunch) Jan. 28, 2023. #joerogan#sphinx#ancientegypt
Today on Crunch, let's see what Joe Rogan and Robert Schoch have to say about the much older age of this colossal figure.
One of history's most perplexing mysteries rises from the Sahara Desert in Egypt. Its stone eyes peer out of an animal body-human face, surveying a land of ancient tombs and endless sand. For millennia, it has weathered the ravages of time and witnessed the rise and fall of civilizations. Yet, after all these centuries, the Great Sphinx of Giza remains an enigma. Just when we believe we are about to solve its eternal riddles, the Sphinx reveals another layer of secrecy. One of the biggest mysteries in Ancient Egypt that swirls around this famous structure is when was it built.
For years, Egyptologists and archeologists have thought the Great Sphinx of Giza to be about 4,500 years old. However, recent studies have suggested the Sphinx is much older than mainstream archeologists and Egyptologists claim.
(Inforado) Nov. 4, 2022. The Sphinx of Egypt is one of the most famous ancient sculptures in the world, but how much do you really know about it? In fact, how much does anybody really know about it? There’s far more to the Sphinx than most people imagine, and most probably won’t even realize how much about it we don’t know until we’ve finished watching this video.

Fallen Chief of Antiquities, Zahi Hawass, is a very bad man. And many people know it. Far from exposing the true origins, purpose, and discoveries of Ancient Egypt -- many of which precede the dynastic age -- he is part of many cover-ups to conceal the truth. Fortunately, he was deposed but he may still be wielding influence as he has not been arrested and imprisoned. Sadly, these cover ups do not seem to have been coming from Egypt but from the USA.
This is Borobudur, a pyramid-shaped Buddhist temple in Indonesia, the world's largest.
Scientists prevent excavation of CHAMBER inside world's oldest pyramid
Thirty-four scientists have literally campaigned to PREVENT the excavation of a hidden chamber -- which was found through ground-penetrating radar -- inside Gunung Padang, the world's oldest known pyramid.
World's largest Buddhist temple, Borobudur
The "Indonesian Pyramid" is at 25,000-years-old in formerly-Buddhist Indonesia, site of the world's largest excavated Buddhist temple, pyramidal Borobudur in Java, Indonesia.
(Afghanistan's yet to be excavated Mes Aynak, site of one of the Buddha's three royal hometowns, may be the largest). Currently the world's largest pyramid is not in Egypt as most of us are led to assume but in Mexico, at Cholula in Puebla.
This makes Gunung Padang twice as old as Göbekli Tepe, the astonishing and only partially uncovered temple complex of unknown origin, which is only thought to be 12,000 years old.

(Smithsonian Channel) King Thutmose IV did not build the Great Sphinx. He rediscovered it
hidden in the sand and -- according to legend -- it made him king in
return. From: "SECRETS: The Sphinx."
(Brien Foerster, June 23, 2014) How we know the pharaohs did not make the Sphinx; Stephen Mehler explains the running water beneath and the purpose of the Goddess Sphinx (khemitology.com).
In ancient Egypt, when pharaohs wanted to record something for eternity
and have it be known not only to mortals, but more importantly, to the
gods [space-devas], they wrote in stone.
The hieroglyphs carved into the Dream Stela
of Thutmosis IV, an enormous upright slab at the base of the Sphinx,
tell a portentous story of a young king's bargain with the sun god [Surya].
In
this interview, Egyptologist Kasia Szpakowska deciphers the stela for
Gary Glassman, producer of NOVA's "Riddles of the Sphinx."
As Kasia Szpakowska explains, dreams like the one recorded on the
stone slab at the base of the Sphinx had the power to solidify a
pharaoh's reign and change the course of history.

(Cfapps7865, July 19, 2015) The Tunnels and Chambers Under the Sphinx. There are shafts and chambers in, on, and around the Sphinx. Ground penetrating radar confirms it. Why do we not hear about it from the so-called "experts"? They need to preserve Egyptian national pride. No modern Egyptian wants to hear that the pyramids, temples, and monuments are far older than popularly believed. Therefore, they were built by pre-Egyptian peoples. Egyptian only go back a few thousand years. Some pyramids are at least 25,000 years old, and the Sphinx is thought to be about 34,000 years old. The oblong skulls of pharaohs, often hidden by a headdress like that of Nefertiti, suggest the rulers were not ordinary earthlings but still human. The connection of this culture to Mars (Cairo means Mars) and the monuments visible on Mars suggest a connection between the two planets and their ancient cultures.
Stela etching of Thutmosis IV offering incense to the god [Anubis?] as the Sphinx.
NOVA: Who was Thutmosis IV, and why would he come here, to the area of the Sphinx?
Kasia Szpakowska: Thutmosis IV was the
eighth king of the 18th dynasty, which is during Egypt's New Kingdom, a
period when Egypt was really at its height. This area, at that time, was
like a recreation area for the pharaohs. They would come here to hunt,
ride their chariots, do target practice.
What is the story written on Thutmosis IV's stela?
The Dream Stela describes a time when he was just newly king. [Scholars
put his reign at 1401-1391 B.C.] According to the stela, Thutmosis IV
was strolling here one day, all alone. Around midday, he got very hot
and decided to rest in the shadow of the Great Sphinx.
And at the moment
when the sun hit the zenith -- was at the top of the sky -- the god
Horem-Akhet-Khepri-Re-Atum came to him in a dream and basically told him
that if he cleared away the sands that had been building up around [the
Sphinx], the god would make sure that Thutmosis IV was the ruler of
upper and lower Egypt, unified.
So the Sphinx was buried in sand at the time. Do we know how deeply?
It probably was deeply buried. We're not sure how much. I imagine that
the outline of the body would have been visible, but there wouldn't have
been the details of the paws, of the body at all. The head would have
been visible.
(Sept. 14, 2015)
Although
long believed to have been a dynastic Egyptian work, in this
video we see that the vertical erosion on the Sphinx and enclosure
occurred at least 5,000 years before the pharaonic Egyptians
ever existed. It was constructed between 30-80,000 years ago. There is
clear evidence of chambers and tunnels UNDER the Sphinx, as Edgar Cayce
saw.
DREAMS for ancient Egyptians
Was it unusual, in Egyptian lore, for a god to speak to a mortal?
The stela is an account of the king's dream.
It was very unusual for a god [deva] to speak to a mortal [human]. The kings, however,
throughout Egyptian history would be spoken to by gods.
They received
communications from gods through revelations and oracles. But seeing a
god in a dream was an extremely rare phenomenon.
So that's also part of the reason that Thutmosis IV erected the
stela -- to emphasize that he was the person whom the god chose to speak to
in this very, very intimate encounter during a dream.
How did the Egyptians think about dreams?
Dreams were considered an external phenomenon. A dream was something
that was outside of you. Egyptians never said, "I was dreaming," or "I'm
dreaming right now," or "I'd love to be dreaming."
You saw things in a
dream, as if it were something external to you, over which you had no
control. And, in fact, most of the references we have to dreams in
ancient Egypt treat them as things to be avoided and feared. So we have
many spells to keep away bad dreams. In part, it's because dreams seem
to be somewhere, again, between the land of the living and the land
beyond.
The inhabitants of the beyond included not only the gods, not only the
dead, but also the damned, those Egyptians who had not made it
successfully to the afterlife or were thought of as enemies of the king
or the gods. And those beings, through a dream, could also access a
vulnerable individual while he or she was asleep, as a nightmare. More
Anubis: It's a dog not a lion
Robert Temple (Ancient Astronaut Arguments): The Sphinx and Anubis (Part 1 of 4)
Robert Temple reveals that the Sphinx was originally a monumental Anubis, the Egyptian jackal god, and that its face is that of a Middle
Kingdom pharaoh, Amenemhet II, which was a later re-carving.
In
addition, he provides photographic evidence of ancient sluice gate
traces to demonstrate that, during the Old Kingdom, the Sphinx as Anubis
sat surrounded by a moat filled with water -- called Jackal Lake in the
ancient Pyramid Texts -- where religious ceremonies were held.
Temple also
provides evidence that the exact size and position of the Sphinx were
geometrically determined in relation to the pyramids of Cheops and
Chephren and that it was part of a pharaonic resurrection cult.
The Sphinx Mystery verifies the existence of secret underground chambers
beneath the Sphinx and demonstrates its origins as the Egyptian god of
the dead, Anubis.
It includes an anthology of eyewitness accounts
from early travelers who explored the secret chambers before they were
sealed in 1926.
It reveals that the Sphinx was originally carved as a monumental crouching Anubis, the Egyptian jackal god of the necropolis.
Shrouded
in mystery for centuries, the Sphinx of Giza has frustrated many who
have attempted to discover its original purpose.
Accounts exist of the
Sphinx as an oracle, as a king’s burial chamber, and as a temple for
initiation into the Hermetic Mysteries. Egyptologists have argued for
decades about whether there are secret chambers underneath it,
why the head-to-body ratio is out of proportion, which is completely uncharacteristic of Egyptian design, and whose face adorns
it.
Robert Temple addresses the
many mysteries of the Sphinx and presents eyewitness accounts, covering a period of 281 years, of people who saw the secret chambers and
even went inside them before they were sealed in 1926 -- accounts that had
been forgotten until the author rediscovered them.
He proves that Zahi Hawass, ousted head of Egyptian antiquities, is a liar. He also describes
his own exploration of a tunnel at the rear of the Sphinx, perhaps used
for obtaining sacred divinatory dreams.
Temple reveals
that the Sphinx was originally a monumental Anubis, the Egyptian jackal
god. The face is that of a Middle Kingdom Pharaoh, Amenemhet
II, which was a more recent re-carving.
