153. Wonders Hidden Beneath the Pyramids? – Armando Mei

Independent researcher Armando Mei is part of a team that made waves in the spring of 2025.

The results of their scanning beneath the pyramids of Giza – the Khafre pyramid in particular – were sensational. They seemed to reveal gigantic, coherent and seemingly artificial structures down to a depth of over one kilometer.

Now, the group hopes to be able to physically explore the underground network at the Giza plateau.

“We already know where the access points are”, says Armando.

At one of those, there is a debris layer of about seven meters that needs to be removed before explorers can enter.

Egypt’s archaeology heavyweight Dr Zahi Hawass has dismissed the findings by the Italians as impossible.

“I heard him on the Joe Rogan podcast and realized from what he said that he doesn’t understand the core of the technology.”

Armando Mei currently lives in Egypt. Apart from being a part of the Kharfre scanning project, he conducts his own multidisciplinary studies of the megalithic structures of Giza. He has measured and made calculations on the Khafre pyramid and found intriguing geometric relations. The number 137 appears to be preeminent.

Today, many question the textbook narrative that the Giza pyramids were tombs for pharaohs. Armando’s hypothesis, aligning with Christopher Dunn’s, is that they were built for some kind of energy generation purposes.

Judging from documentation like the Turin King List and analyses of the astronomical alignments with the structures on the ground, Armando assesses that the oldest Megalithic monuments on the Giza plateau are at least 38,000 years old.

He isn’t sure if this lost civilization is in some way related to the Atlantis story, nor if it was wiped out by a cataclysm in the Younger Dryas period, a popular theory.

But he does believe that one or more civilization-ending cataclysms have occurred at times in humanity’s deep history. He points out the enormous supervolcano Toba eruption 74,000 years ago.

To understand our future we need to understand our past, Armando emphasizes. And to understand our past we need to not only have a multidisciplinary approach but in fact change our consciousness. That doesn’t mean archaeologists, geologists and historians have to meditate to let insights come to them.

“No, they just need to open their eyes”, says Armando.

“It’s time to read the past with a different view.”

His next exploratory project is also about a possible lost civilization. It’s on a small island in the Pacific.
