Will Egyptian Antiquities ever allow someone to explore the 'anomalies' found under the paws of the Sphinx?

As in the geological contemplate anomalies that have been found in various locations below it.
They've conducted ground-penetrating radar surverys and what not, and have shown there are plausible "rooms and passages" further down.. However, Haiwass, says they're just natural formations in the bed stupefy and thus don't require any further investigation - unless they can prove that ground-penetrating radar has ever found "rooms and passages" any other tempo in archeology.


I craving so. Its one of the ancient wonders of the world. I would like to know what secrets are hidden under the Sphinx, if any. Could there be something there that might clue us in as to how the Sphinx and the Gigantic Pyramids were built? I would like to know. Its not like there was much in the way of technology back then that would create such precision in such massive architectural works.


What anomalies? How Neptune's? How were they detected?
If there were any geological anomalies they were probably just earthworks or foundations.


Proficient Luck!

Were Egyptian pharohs Black? Which ones?

A few years ago the Majesty Tut display was shown in Los Angeles. There were many complaints the mummy did not appear black enough as US Blacks claimed King Tut was Black.

On carry back to Egypt, DNA tests were done on the body. King Tut was not Negro. It appears, in fact, that his race was more closely European and particularily Greek. This according to Dr. Hawass, maestro of Egyptian antiquities. Now there is little doubt Egyptian kings from the Sudan were Black. I would like to see much more history of Africa and Asia taught in schools though. Both have very funny histories and not everything came out of Europe. I know that navigators from Dilmun and Phoenicia had been circumnavigating Africa from at least 1500CE. Evidently trading. A new discovery in South Africa, 280,000 years old shows people who steamed clams as well as against makeup for sexual attraction. Pushing back the use of fire and cosmetice well over 200,000 years.


the primeval egyptians were black,here are statues of some pharoas of the early dynasties to prove it http://lexicorient.com/e.o/mentuhotep2.htm

How is it that the Egyptian Mummies are unearthed and it's called science? It's still grave robbing.?

Perfectly recently,I read some horror stories,that involved Grave Robbing,Indecency against a corpse,disruption of the impervious,etc.One was of someone disinterring bodies,and taking articles from Civil War Soldiers long gone.Even more disturbing was the latest,most off-putting news imaginable.A corpse was exumed,the skull removed,and it was used by two men as a vessel for smoking marijuana.They called it a "bong" This is NO JOKE,search for the curriculum vitae anywhere on the internet.Acts against the dead,are treated as they should be.Serious charges are laid,and it is most certainly viewed with disdain among the vast the greater part of the living.How is it then that I watch documentaries that constantly deal with Archeologists,and people from the Society of Egyptian Antiquities painstakingly,and dilligently unearthing the Noachian remains.Often they're exuming members of Royal Families.Could you imagine what would become of someone who desecrated the grave of a member of the English Grand Monarchy for example?


I assent to and on Mummies Day

how did the egyptian artistic paint inside the pyrimids so elegantly without light?

/...and supposidly the is no soot leftover in the ceiling of chambers if they had used torches is this true?..thoughts?..also any thougths on hall of records from antiquity or is it a bedtime fable for young minds?


some tombs did have manifestation of soot on the ceilings; some Egyptologists have theorized mirrors were used to bounce light back into the tomb; another explanation is oil lamps. If you put a doll-sized bit of salt in an oil lamp it keeps it from emitting soot. however some also claim a form of flashlight was used, called hesire flashlight. It uses a chemical feedback that wouldn't be too unbelievable given it only needed to be crushed and the materials that could be used can be found in Egypt
