Egypt’s Sphinx May Hide a ‘Secret City’ Built by a Lost Civilization, Historians Suggest

The Egyptian Sphinx in Giza could be the entrance to an underground “secret city”, according to the latest research by historians.

Malcolm Hutton and Gerry Cannon believe that the Sphinx, which sits on the sands of the Giza Plateau, opposite the Great Pyramids, could be the gateway to a labyrinth of tunnels and passages and an entire “underground.” “terrestrial metropolises” that have been lost to the world due to a cover-up by the Egyptian authorities.

Historians explain in their upcoming book “The Secrets of the Giza Plateau and a Second Sphinx Revealed” that news of this lost city first made headlines due to an article in Mа’s Sunday Express. 1935 about excavations that took place in an underground city that at the time was said to date 4,000 years ago.

The couple claimed after that report that nothing more was heard about this city.

“It was as if all living Egyptologists had lost interest in this wonderful underground metropolis, as all their articles over the next few years focused more on the tombs of queens and axes that had been sunk deep into the ground to bury tombs.” ”.

Historians believe that a hole in the top of the Sphinx’s head could be an entrance to this lost city, along with other openings in the structure.

However, they claim to have collided with a “wall of pink granite blocks” from the Egyptian authorities.

“There are things under there, tunnels. Many people have written about it but they try to cover it all up.

“No one knows what is under there, no one has been able to investigate.

“They’re afraid that if they find things down there, all their books and all their history will fly out the window.

“They started investigating it but then they stopped. So they must have known there are things there but they are worried.

“Once their entire story is proven wrong, all the books they have written will be scrapped. If they have found things, they do not dare to show them.

“There are entries, there are photographs that prove it. There is a hole at the top of the Sphinx, in its head.

“Why should I be there? It descends 8 to 10 feet and then enters hallways.

“They have never taken cameras there, or they have made them and they don’t want to show them.”

To further complicate the mystery surrounding the origin of the pyramids and the Sphinx, the authors claim that the head of the Sphinx has changed since it was built and that while the body is made of limestone and the head is carved from a material artificial. substance.

“It is obvious from the totally different construction material and color of the Sphinx’s head, which we believe is not rock, but some kind of artificial substance compared to its limestone and erosion. dead body.

“The head and face of the Sphinx must have changed from their original shape long after the monument was first carved. “There is hardly any damage and no erosion on his head compared to his body.”

However, Egyptian authorities say it is not possible to investigate the claims as they say the chambers are blocked or filled with water.

Former Minister of State for Antiquities Affairs Zahі Hаwаss previously said that there was nothing at all under the Sphinx.
