Interesting facts about the ancient civilization.

Like we already know everything about the Egyptian pyramids and tombs. But science does not stand still, and thanks to modern technical possibilities there are new amazing discoveries, which, in turn, lead to new questions.

We also wanted to touch the great mysteries of the history of the Ancient Kingdom.

1. Secret rooms of the pyramid of Cheops

In 1993, with the help of remote control robot “Upuaut II” in the southern air shaft of the pyramid of Cheops was discovered the door. Further investigation revealed a small room, ending in another door.

In 2010 alone advanced robot “Jedi” was able to get behind the first door, and found that the brass knob on the other side is designed in the form neat loops, and on the floor the red ochre painted icons.

Moreover, despite the fact that, according to official figures, in 9 years no one had penetrated into the mine, there is new longitudinal scratches and a deep cut on the ceiling.

2. What is the real age of the great pyramid?

It is considered that the pyramid was completed in 2540 BC, However, some scientists put this theory into question due to the inventory stele, which was found in Giza. Embossed on it the text says that Khufu commanded to build, but only to restore the Sphinx. In addition, modern research shows that the striations on his body — traces of rain, and their level was in this place last 8 thousand years ago.

So how, then, years the great pyramid, if the Sphinx is considered to be a later construction than the pyramids?

3. Heat the mystery of the pyramid of Cheops

In 2016, work was performed to study the pyramid of Cheops by infrared thermography, and found that at the base of the great pyramid there is an inexplicable emptiness.

It is anticipated that there may be empty space or an underground passage. Areas with different temperatures were found and at the top of the pyramid.

The Ministry of antiquities (Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities) has not yet given any comments.

4. Construction technology of the pyramids

Chemist Joseph Davidovits (Joseph Davidovits) argues that the blocks of the pyramids were made directly on the construction site. This explains why the design of the pyramid, there are blocks weighing 70 tons, and why no gaps between them (the top block was made just above the bottom).

But geologists and paleontologists who have studied the composition and structure of pyramid power claim that the blocks are machined blocks natural sediment, which eliminates the theory Davidovica.

At the moment there is no single hypothesis about how and why pyramids were built.

5. The curse of Tutankhamen’s tomb

The tomb was discovered on 6 November 1922 by Howard Carter (Howard Carter) and George Carnarvon (George Edward Stanhope Molyneux Herbert, 5th Earl of Carnarvon).

In examining the tomb Carter found a sign that had the warning: “over anyone who dares to disturb the peace of Pharaoh, death will spread its wings”, but Howard didn’t pay attention to it.

That curse still works, talking when the news came of the death of 22 people: 13 participants opening of the tomb and 9 of their relatives. By 1930, survived only by Howard Carter himself.

Scientists try to explain the curse of the Pharaoh with a poison that the priests inflicted on the walls of the tomb and the sarcophagus, but scientific evidence of this theory has not received.
