Scientists say that now there is a question about how void should be investigated further.
Japanese and French scientists after two years of work in the famous pyramid of Cheops said that he found it “a great void”.
They used a technique called myography that can perceive changes in density within large structures.
The great pyramid, or the pyramid of Cheops was built during the reign of the Pharaoh Khufu between 2509 and 2483 BC. This is the largest of the Egyptian pyramids located in Giza on the outskirts of Cairo. Over the last two centuries inside the pyramid scientists have found three rooms, one of which was allegedly buried the Pharaoh himself, the other his wife, and the third was considered a trap for the robbers.
Researchers from the project Scan Pyramids “enlighten” the pyramid using muons — elementary particles that are part of the cosmic rays. In the space of muons moving in a dense flow at almost the speed of light, so not only reach the Earth, but pass through the heavy mass of rock.
Stone in contrast to the air deflects the flow direction of the muon, so the researchers have created a detector that can these deviations to detect the cavity inside the large objects of stone. New cavity apparently has 30 meters in length and several meters in height.
“This can be a kind of space that the builders left to protect a very narrow roof of the Grand galleries of the weight of the pyramid”, – said the famous American archaeologist mark Lehner.
Scientists emphasize that they do not interpretiruya his discovery and not claim that they were able to find some secret room.
“We don’t know whether it is horizontal or inclined, we don’t know is this emptiness from a single structure or a few coherent structures. But we are confident that this is a big void, which was not previously known,” explains one of the authors of the open, Mehdi Tabe from HIP Institute in Paris.
