INSIGHT

Hawara Labyrinth And The 40m Mystery

  • The Hawara labyrinth scans reveal massive multi-level subterranean structures and a mysterious 40-meter metallic tic-tac shaped object.
  • Ben van Kerkwyk and Joe Rogan argue this could upend Egyptian history and attract urgent excavation efforts.
INSIGHT

Independent Scans Corroborate Deep Structures

  • Multiple independent scans (GPR, space-based imaging) correlate on deep, complex structures under Hawara and Giza, reaching tens of meters deep.
  • These correlated methods strengthen the case that major undiscovered architecture exists beneath Egyptian sites.
INSIGHT

Great Pyramid Encodes Geodetic Ratios

  • Sacred geometry and numeric ratios (e.g., 43,200) encoded in the Great Pyramid map to Earth measurements and time cycles.
  • These embedded ratios imply advanced geodetic knowledge predating modern surveys.
