1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:29,000
So, again, behind the head of the Sphinx are
a series of these incredible shafts.

2
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:37,000
More than 10 feet across, 10 feet wide, and
at present, at least 60 feet deep but fill...

3
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:42,000
So originally, they would have been much,
much deeper, and they would have carried...

4
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:50,000
The vertical shafts connecting with
horizontal tunnels that carried water.

5
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:59,000
According to Yusuf, this is the, of course,
the causeway that goes to the second pyramid.

6
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:10,000
And the water traveled through these
horizontal systems of tunnels,

7
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:16,000
carrying the water to the Great Pyramid and
the others to generate electricity.

8
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:23,000
The pyramids split water into hydrogen and
oxygen.

9
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:28,000
And so that's why there are the chambers
inside the pyramids. They weren't burial...

10
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,000
They were places where electrical generation
happened.

11
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:42,000
In the base, the water came, was split, and
traveled up through the galleries and shaf...

12
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,000
And for more information, check out Chris
Dunn's Giza Power Plant.

13
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:57,000
This is the causeway leading from the Sphinx
Temple, Valley Temple, up to the second...

14
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:04,000
And this causeway is megalithic limestone.

15
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:09,000
Massive blocks of, in general, tonnage.

16
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:19,000
And as Yusuf has told me, it was probably
originally had an outer layer of either...

17
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:31,000
Because you wouldn't tend to want to make a
surface like this that is going to be used...

18
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Limestone is quite soft. Granite is super
hard.

19
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:44,000
And again, the causeway, and what most people
don't know, is that under the surface of t...

20
00:02:44,000 --> 00:03:02,000
And these are tunnels that lead down,
possibly, to the great tunnel that travels...

21
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,000
The so-called Khafre pyramid.

22
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:23,000
So the series of shafts, tunnels, here in
between the Sphinx and the second pyramid ...

23
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,000
And they weren't all made for the burial of
people.

24
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:36,000
So it's more likely that a lot of the tombs
here in this area were actually inherited ...

25
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:37,000
Sorry?

26
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,000
They were reused.

27
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Right.

28
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:50,000
What I believe is that these shafts, tunnels,
and chambers that are relevelled, let's ta...

29
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:55,000
But then later it was divided. This was for
something, this was for something else.

30
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:02,000
And the priests used some of these chambers
to be tombs. That's the transformation. Th...

31
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:07,000
But they were reused later. To be tombs. And
then archaeologists would come and find it...

32
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:12,000
Then they would know that the original
purpose of it was made to be a tomb.

33
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,000
This is the mistake.

34
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,000
Right.

35
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:36,000
So the problem, as Youssef has just said, is
that if you presuppose that the dynastic...

36
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:44,000
That is, in a lot of cases, like huge
multi-ton blocks.

37
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:55,000
This is reconstruction. But the work of the
dynastic period, as Youssef has pointed ou...

38
00:04:55,000 --> 00:05:09,000
But that's not to say nothing, but that is
very simplistic work as compared to the...

39
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:16,000
Almost the same number making up the second
pyramid and a lot making up the third...

40
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:23,000
So prior to the dynastic Egyptians were the
Chameisians. The Chameisians were the grea...

41
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:29,000
Evidenced here by being able to hew into the
solid living limestone.

42
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,000
You can see here how this resonance chamber
works.

43
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:37,000
This is the well where the sound of the water
was coming from.

44
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,000
And here would be the front of the false
door.

45
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,000
The false door used to interact in that
chamber with the sound.

46
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:49,000
Can you hear that?

47
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,000
Oh yeah.

48
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,000
It still resonating, but not in any other
part of the chamber.

49
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,000
Not here.

50
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,000
It doesn't.

51
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,000
No.

52
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:08,000
But here if the sound of the running water
from underneath created sound, the sound w...

53
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:15,000
And that's what possibly generated the
resonance, which was also needed sound.

54
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,000
So again here is the middle pyramid.

55
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,000
And we're in an area that has these
incredible shafts.

56
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,000
These have nothing to do with digging burials
for people.

57
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:27,000
Look at the size of that.

58
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,000
That has to be 15 feet across.

59
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,000
More than 15 feet from front to back.

60
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,000
And there's channel in it.

61
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,000
And it's not isolated.

62
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:43,000
There are numerous vertical shafts here and
throughout this whole area.

63
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:51,000
And from what Youssef has told me, you can
find these shafts all through the strip of...

64
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:58,000
which is the most ancient part of the pre
dynastic culture here, the commissions.

65
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:16,000
And again, we're talking about vertical
shafts in many cases interacting with...

66
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,000
So we're in the living bedrock now.

67
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,000
Or maybe not.

68
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,000
These could actually be massive.

69
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,000
Oh, this is megalithic rock.

70
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,000
OK, so this is the bedrock.

71
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:36,000
The cracks that I thought were joints
actually are fissures and cracks in the...

72
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:42,000
You see this again, this is the Giza Plateau.

73
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:57,000
And anywhere you find a shaft or the tunnel
entrance, of course, you find a locked door.

74
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:09,000
So the hieroglyphics are later, and this was
converted into a tomb, but its original...

75
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:14,000
But quite possibly part of the water carrying
system.

76
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:21,000
It was the ore for resonance.

77
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:29,000
And look, this shaft leading to two, one from
up, and then the other one from down.

78
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,000
And then the shaft leading to the tunnel.

79
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:36,000
And the higher one for more resonance than
water.

80
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,000
Than water.

81
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:56,000
And look, this shaft leading to two, one from
up, and then if you stood up a little, you...

82
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:00,000
So there are chambers, shafts, tunnels,
chambers, like that.

83
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,000
How many levels do you think there are?

84
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,000
There are three levels of tunnel systems.

85
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,000
Sphinx again.

86
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:23,000
Wow, okay.

87
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,000
Okay.

88
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:33,000
Again, another shaft behind a locked gate
heading down.

89
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,000
And in behind this gate more.

90
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,000
More.

91
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:19,000
So what also we can see is we can see the
difference even in when they worked in...

92
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:26,000
The quality difference between commission
work, which is older than dynastic, and th...

93
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,000
This is commission.

94
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:32,000
You see the beautiful complex angles.

95
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,000
Very tight fitting joints.

96
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,000
Originally very smooth finish.

97
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:42,000
And then what Yusef points out as being
dynastic construction.

98
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:53,000
Cruder, rougher surface, mortar, and
cartouches, and hieroglyphics added later.

99
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,000
This would have been a tomb most likely.

100
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:56,000
It's been torn apart.

101
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:00,000
And that's where we see parallels between
here and Peru.

102
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:06,000
Because again, most archaeologists, most
visitors to Peru think that everything was...

103
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:11,000
That the megalithic work in super hard stone
was done with primitive tools.

104
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,000
All it took was a lot of people to do the
work.

105
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:19,000
But that's nonsensical because we see the
same kind of thing.

106
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:23,000
We see the megalithic is older, far superior.

107
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:27,000
The Inca work is complex, but not as good.

108
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:28,000
Sorry?

109
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,000
No decorations, no writings, nothing.

110
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:36,000
Except the big chamber with one way to the
left and another one to the right.

111
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:41,000
And the other one probably leads further to
the rest of the construction.

112
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,000
Ah.

113
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,000
Yeah.

114
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:54,000
You can see hopefully here on that side, see
there's an indent in the wall at the end.

115
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,000
And then there is a tunnel underneath it.

116
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,000
You see the little dark area, that's tunnel
entrance.

117
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:11,000
And again, according to Yusuf, at least three
levels of tunnels here at the Giza complex,

118
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,000
which the word complex is too simplistic for
this area.

119
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:19,000
It's completely monstrous in scale.

120
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,000
This one was about to be transported.

121
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:26,000
You find writings, you find that they reshape
something like a false door

122
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:30,000
because it became something traditional after
that.

123
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,000
So they copied it also.

124
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,000
That's what makes it confusing.
