Hidden Nine-Meter Corridor Discovered Inside the Great Pyramid of Giza, Potentially Unlocking New Secrets of Khufu's Reign

A nine-meter hidden corridor has been discovered inside the Great Pyramid of Giza. The corridor, located behind the main entrance, was announced by Egyptian archaeologist Zahi Hawass at a press conference in Cairo. Described as a "gabled corridor" with a triangular ceiling, it is located on the pyramid's northern face. Experts believe the space was intentionally concealed by ancient Egyptians. The purpose of the corridor remains unknown. Theories suggest it may be a stress-relieving chamber or could lead to an undiscovered tomb or treasure of Pharaoh Khufu. This discovery follows the 2017 revelation of a 30-meter hidden cavity within the Great Pyramid, whose purpose is also unknown. The Great Pyramid, built over 4,500 years ago, continues to captivate historians and the public alike. Zahi Hawass and the international team of scientists believe this is just the beginning of new revelations, with more hidden spaces or undiscovered burial chambers potentially concealed within the pyramid.
