Patrick Geryl Discovers Labyrinth in Egypt

With financial support from Louis De Cordier, 2012 author Patrick Geryl has used ground-penetrating radar to provide evidence for the legendary "labyrinth" and possible home of the Hall of Records to be located in Hawara, Egypt. Zahi Hawass is now involved and excavations have begun.

The situation is starting to look a little embrassing for Egyptian authorities, given that English author Andrew Collins is publicizing a relatively undiscovered series of tunnels and chambers below the Giza plateau, which he just found from taking an educated wander.

Could independent researchers be close to discovering some remarkably secret places?

Andrew Collins Discovers Giza Cave?

It depends on who you ask, as to whether this is a legit discovery, or just an old cave that has been studied previously.

Andrew Collins: Claims to have rediscovered a cave system under the Giza plateau, from studying the writings of Henry Salt from the 19th century. The angle Collins is taking for his new book "Beneath the Pyramids" (published this week) seems to be that the pyramid complex was inspired in some way by the cave system.

Zahi Hawass: "There are no new discoveries to be made at Giza. We know everything about the plateau," he stated.

Andrew Collins: "To the best of our knowledge nothing has ever been written or recorded about these caves since Salt's explorations. If Hawass does have any report related to these caves, we have yet to see it."

Personally, as much as I am a fan of Andrew Collins, I find it hard to believe that there is anything left to discover at Giza, that can be seen from the surface, as this cave entrance appears to be.
