The dreadful moment when exploring the Great Pyramid 4,500 years

The British historian Bethany Hughes talks about 'a significant big gap' inside the Great Pyramid of Giza on Channel 5 and calls it 'the discovery of a lifetime', when allowed to come very close to this void. .

According to Express, the Great Pyramid of Giza is one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, built within 20 years for Pharaoh Khufu. The mummy of the Egyptian king of this 4th dynasty was never found. But things may change soon.

Professor Bettany Hughes talks about his journey to discover the Great Pyramid of Giza on Channel 5: 'It is worth mentioning that there is a big gap inside the pyramid . Need to find out what that room is, why there is that gap and what's inside. '

Bethany Hughes historian is one of the few people who is very close to the gap.

'It could be the burial place of Pharaoh's corpse, hidden deep in the center of the pyramid. That's the historical reason that is always fascinating, because there are always new things waiting to be discovered , 'Hughes said.

Hughes explained that he went into the Great Pyramid to observe directly. ' I'm a bit embarrassed because the entrance is very narrow. The obstacles sometimes made me feel scared. But having access to the pyramid of 4,500 years is a memorable memory. '

Hughes said he wanted to enter the mysterious room that needed to crawl because the entrance was very narrow.'Nobody knows what the space is made for, is Pharaoh's burial place, or is it simply abandoned? Or it could be a trap to deceive grave thieves. '

Hughes recounted his journey on Channel 5.

On Channel 5, Hughes also described his access to other areas within the Great Pyramid. Hughes explained that the first gap was discovered by archaeologists in 2017. Until now, no one knew what was inside the pyramid.

'There is a group of international scientists, working on projects with specialized equipment. Right above my head is an empty room that we never knew about it , 'Hughes said. 'In the 2017 survey, scientists say the space is about 30 meters long and is considered to be a life-long discovery.'
