Unusual heat in the Egyptian pyramid

Modern scanning technology helps scientists discover unusual signs inside ancient pyramids in Egypt.

Detect strange heat spots in the Egyptian pyramid

According to UPI, an international team of archaeologists discovered a strange sign inside the Great Pyramid belonging to King Khufu while conducting an infrared scanning on pyramids. This study is a collaboration between the Egyptian Ministry of Archeology and the Institute for Heritage Conservation and Heritage (HIP) of France, Laval University (Canada) and Nagoya University (Japan).

They swept infrared on four pyramids, two in Giza and the other two in Dahshur, another relic south of Cairo. As a result, abnormal heat marks were discovered in the Great Pyramid.

"This sign is quite unexpected, it is very close to us and close to the ground, " said Mehdi Tayoubi, founder of HIP.

This sign is expressed by the temperature difference on the thermal image obtained after scanning. Explaining them, the team thinks that there may be gaps or other materials between the rocks.

"I still cannot confirm what lies behind those rocks, but it will certainly open enormous discoveries , " said Mamdouth Eldamaty, Egyptian Archaeological Minister.

Tayoubi and his team are working hard to explain this sign in parallel with a closer scan of the entire Great Pyramid.

This project uses infrared scanning technologies, X-rays and 3D simulations to rebuild the structure inside the pyramid.(Photo: Discovery News).

"We need to reconstruct the model based on heat signs to test different assumptions, thereby giving the most accurate explanation," Tayoubi concluded.

Pyramid exploration within the framework of the study is expected to last at least a year with more scans and discoveries.
