In the darkness, we were led to an iron-gated entry under the causeway between the pyramids. So it was in early 2018, at 4:30 AM, when a Giza Plateau inspector, my Egyptologist friend Hares and myself plodded across the desert sands with only a flashlight to light our way in the morning chill. (Our entry has now opened the way for others wanting access, but also for a hefty price.) Initially they refused our request, but eventually caved in for a price. They claimed no one had been down there in decades. We were initially met with suspicion by Egyptian authorities who wanted to know who we were, what we wanted, and how we even knew about the shafts. Negotiations to enter the hidden shafts began in 2017. It wasn’t easy getting permission to explore under the Giza Plateau. (Author provided) Access to the Underworld
Kathy Forti prepares to descend under the Giza Plateau. Therefore, I was determined to know more about what was below ground.Īuthor, Dr. In truth, we are just beginning to put together the puzzle pieces that have eluded us for centuries.
This is especially true when it comes to the many mysteries surrounding all the world’s pyramids. There is an ancient Hermetic saying: “As Above, so Below,” meaning “That which is Below corresponds to that which is Above, and that which is Above corresponds to that which is Below, to accomplish the Miracle of the One Thing.” But now they are coming into the Light and what is being found raises even deeper questions. A vast network of underground chambers and water tunnels have been discovered beneath several of the world’s most well-known pyramids, including the Great Pyramid on Egypt’s Giza Plateau.įor centuries these ancient tunnels have remained hidden and off-limits to everyone but a select few.
