We may not know every last detail like what knot they used to tie a rope, but the actual construction is not mysterious.

Hidden Chamber Found In Great Pyramid of Giza
- Thread starter DonShula
- Start date
how can one of the most famous pyramids of all time still have so much hidden stuff being found centuries later?
is it because all of the death traps makes historians scared to explore it?
and i guess they're scared of removing bricks that might accidently cause the pyramid to collapse

what if, in the deepest layer of the pyramid of giza, they find a big treasure chest that contains a Secret Item we can use to access another Secret Dungeon somewhere else in the world?
Probably nothing in there and just part of the construction but even seeing that will be very interesting or any markings.

Well, that and there's the rest of the pyramid in the way. As far as they can tell there's no means of actually accessing this 'void', so the only way to find it without tearing the pyramid apart outright is to scan tor it.
They released the first image!
where was this image from again?

From The Atlantic article about this discovery:
In fact, the study's authors exhorted journalists, please, please do not call it a secret chamber. "We know it is a void, but we don't want to use the word 'chamber,'" says Mehdi Tayoubi, president of the HIP Institute and an author on the paper. Their caution maybe sharpened by the reaction to a press release last October extolling their preliminary results, which media reports quickly indeed turned into speculation about "secret chambers."

If the theory about the Grand Gallery being part of the construction method is true, this could be another such structure for building the higher sections of the pyramid.
I've always thought it interesting that everyone just assumed the pyramid was solid except for the chambers that were already opened, and now we're seeing just how wrong that assumption might have been.
And yes, I'm totally going back into Khufu's pyramid tonight in AC:O.

You mean where Atem cheated at Yugioh and likely stole the workers belongings.
It appears to follow the same angle as the Grand Gallery so that was my first guess as well.
Yeah. I'd love to see what the inside of that void is like. It could tell us an awful lot about how the pyramid was built.
Love all this Ancient Egypt discovery news! At times I wish Ancient Egypt survived the Bronze Age and peristed to the modern era just to see how they would be like, akin to China.
