Archaeologists Uncover Mysterious L-Shaped Structure Beneath Giza Cemetery

Using advanced geophysical techniques, researchers have identified an underground anomaly near the Great Pyramid, suggesting the existence of previously unknown archaeological remains.

• The anomaly was detected using ground-penetrating radar and electrical resistivity tomography.
• The L-shaped structure is approximately 33 feet long and buried 6.5 feet deep.
• It may have served as an entrance to a deeper, highly resistive structure.
• The site, previously unexplored, is part of Giza's Western Cemetery, known for its mastabas.
• Excavations are ongoing to determine the purpose and contents of the structures.
