00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,960
Hey everybody, I have a video here for you
today. Now I've been reading a few

2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:09,060
reports on a few different websites about
some news out of Egypt today, and I

3
00:00:09,060 --> 00:00:12,580
just chose this website. This is
geekwire.com. This is an article written

4
00:00:12,580 --> 00:00:16,480
by Alan Boyle, and it just came out a little
while ago, but it's about the

5
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:20,760
thermal scanning done at the Great Pyramids,
and I think I'll just read. It

6
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:24,480
says Egypt's Ministry of Antiquities says
thermal scanning has turned up

7
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,400
anomalies inside the pyramids of Giza,
including a particularly impressive one

8
00:00:28,399 --> 00:00:32,159
on the eastern side of the biggest monument.
The report comes just days

9
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:36,519
after the ministry said a similar scan found
temperature anomalies in King

10
00:00:36,519 --> 00:00:41,359
Tutankhamun's tomb hundreds of miles to the
south. Empty space doesn't hold heat

11
00:00:41,359 --> 00:00:44,959
as well as rock or soil, so heat anomalies
provide clues to structural

12
00:00:44,959 --> 00:00:50,640
features beneath or beyond the surface being
scanned. They could point to hidden

13
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:54,679
chambers or passages at the ancient sites.
However, the anomalies could be due

14
00:00:54,679 --> 00:00:58,840
to less spectacular differences in structure
composition, for example,

15
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:03,560
fractures in the underlying rock. When
infrared cameras scan the interior of

16
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,519
Tut's burial chamber in the Valley of the
Kings near Luxor, the ministry said

17
00:01:07,519 --> 00:01:12,000
anomalies were found along the northern and
western walls. That message meshes

18
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:16,200
with other evidence suggesting that yet
another burial chamber, perhaps that of

19
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:21,400
Tut's mother Nefertiti, lies beyond the
walls, and I think that is entirely

20
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:26,320
possible. I did a video on the Valley of the
Kings a while ago. I'll leave the

21
00:01:26,320 --> 00:01:31,080
link for that below, but tomb looting was a
problem from the get-go in ancient

22
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:35,020
Egypt, and the clever, smart ancient
Egyptians went to great lengths to

23
00:01:35,020 --> 00:01:39,280
conceal some of these tombs, so I think it's
entirely possible that something

24
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:44,320
does lie just beyond what we have already
discovered, or what Howard Carter

25
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:51,399
in 1922 discovered at the Valley of the
Kings, King Tut's tomb. It says,

26
00:01:51,399 --> 00:01:55,359
meanwhile, just outside Cairo, the
International Scam Pyramids team took

27
00:01:55,359 --> 00:01:59,679
infrared readings of the Giza pyramids'
exteriors at sunrise when the morning

28
00:01:59,679 --> 00:02:03,679
sun was starting to heat up the monuments,
and at sunset when the pyramids

29
00:02:03,679 --> 00:02:07,799
were cooling down. The ministry said
scientists found intriguing anomalies in

30
00:02:07,799 --> 00:02:11,719
the cycle of heating and cooling, and singled
out a temperature variation at

31
00:02:11,719 --> 00:02:17,120
the Great Pyramid of Khufu, and of course the
Great Pyramid is associated

32
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:23,439
to Khufu just because I believe he built some
structures near the Great Pyramid,

33
00:02:23,439 --> 00:02:28,280
and there is one tiny piece of graffiti that
has Khufu's name way up in a

34
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,759
relieving chamber of the Great Pyramid, and
this is the flimsy evidence that

35
00:02:31,759 --> 00:02:38,120
associates the Great Pyramid to Khufu, and he
also buried his solar

36
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,640
boat just outside the Great Pyramid, and I
think that was just to link his

37
00:02:41,640 --> 00:02:46,039
legacy to the Great Pyramid, but I think the
Great Pyramid was built maybe

38
00:02:46,039 --> 00:02:50,759
thousands of years before the time of Khufu
and the Fourth Dynasty. It says,

39
00:02:50,759 --> 00:02:56,319
Aram Online quoted Egyptian Antiquities
Minister Mamdouh al-Dhamadi as saying

40
00:02:56,319 --> 00:02:59,840
that three of the limestone blocks in the
first row of the Great Pyramid were

41
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:04,240
different in formation, and that a similar
situation was found in the middle

42
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,080
of the pyramid's eastern side. Additional
ground scans suggested there

43
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:12,520
is something like a small passage leading up
to the pyramid ground reaching

44
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,800
an area with different temperature, he said.
Al-Dhamadi said it was too early to

45
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:21,320
determine the cause of the anomalies. It
could be void spaces, fissures, or

46
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:25,879
passages. So far I don't know, he was quoted
as saying. He called upon other

47
00:03:25,879 --> 00:03:30,640
Egyptologists to join the research effort.
The Scam Pyramid project is using

48
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:35,439
thermal imagers as well as cosmic ray
detectors, lasers, and drones to produce

49
00:03:35,439 --> 00:03:41,599
high-tech maps of Egypt's ancient sites. The
pyramids were raised more than 4500

50
00:03:41,599 --> 00:03:46,319
years ago while Tutankhamun's tomb was built
about 3,300 years ago, and of course

51
00:03:46,319 --> 00:03:53,879
that 4500 years ago, that is all speculation.
Egyptologists, their main

52
00:03:53,879 --> 00:04:01,280
goal is to associate every building in Egypt
to Egyptian heritage, and sometimes

53
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:08,000
the truth gets blurred when they do this, and
I just think this is kind of a

54
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,519
stupid in business sense too. Wouldn't it be
a much greater thing for your country

55
00:04:13,519 --> 00:04:20,759
to associate some of the buildings to the
origin of all mankind, not just your

56
00:04:20,759 --> 00:04:26,199
national heritage? So that part of it never
really made sense to me. I think

57
00:04:26,199 --> 00:04:32,159
when we are looking at human origins, I think
the Giza pyramids is a good place

58
00:04:32,159 --> 00:04:37,519
to start. I will leave a few links below in
case you want some more information

59
00:04:37,519 --> 00:04:43,399
on the Great Pyramids, but I think this is a
step in the right direction. When

60
00:04:43,399 --> 00:04:48,639
Zahi Awas was the Minister of the Antiquities
Council, he really didn't

61
00:04:49,079 --> 00:04:56,439
believe in using high-tech equipment, and
news and permission was very hard to

62
00:04:56,439 --> 00:05:02,039
come by as far as research in the Great
Pyramid, but maybe this is a step in the

63
00:05:02,039 --> 00:05:07,560
right direction. We're using some pretty
high-tech gadgetry here to investigate

64
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,120
the Great Pyramid and what's inside of it. I
think there could be other things

65
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:18,360
to be discovered. I think this is a monument
that, even if we were told how

66
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:25,160
it was built, we might not get it. The
sophistication and mathematics put into

67
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:29,879
this building did not come from the Fourth
Dynasty of Egypt. Once again, I

68
00:05:29,879 --> 00:05:33,439
will leave some links below, but I think this
is a step in the right direction.

69
00:05:33,439 --> 00:05:41,680
That is some, you know, not very detailed
information, but some anomalies were

70
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:48,040
found, and hopefully this will lead to maybe
some new discoveries. I think its

71
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:52,560
entirely possible. I think any news coming
out of Egypt and the Great

72
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:57,920
Pyramid is fascinating. Hope you did too. You
have a nice day.
