Hey brother I watch a lot of your videos and you mentioned in one of them wanting to track down footage of when they put the robot into the tunnel in the queens chamber of the great pyramid there is a KZbin channel called mystery history they have a video called the secret missions into the great pyramids they seem to have some footage of what you’re talking about in this video I don’t know if it’s what you’re looking for but they might know something to help you on your search I do understand that channel is very out there but sometimes it takes out there to get at the truth I wish you luck

This construction as had me hooked and obsessed with it for around 3 years. I love everything involved in learning more & more about it. Jean Pierre Houdin's and his detail exploration of Grand Gallery shows stone wear n tear of a work area of Counterweight lift and drop along with his Theory of construction is the best to date.

[@AncientArchitects]

Houdin is a genius. I think he’s closer than most people.

[@davidcorbett1713]

@@AncientArchitects same thinking here. I've seen countless videos of how people think the GP was built but JPH was the closest anyone will ever get.

[@davidcorbett1713]

@@mnomadvfx absolutely agree yes it makes sense as voids and pits were found and easily filled in after reaching a certain hight Those could of been used for Counterweight drop to pull up stones via outer ramps

[@Sgt.chickens]

Houdin is good but his idea is slightly too complicated. Not the idea of the ramps but. His model of pulleys and so on is just neelessly complex. I think hes onto something with the ramps. But i dont think they were internal when in use. And i dont think the counterweight method was used as much as they just lugged it up the middle.

[@ZadenZane]

Hi Ancient Architect I love that mysterious background music. Wow. Oh BTW I hope this isn't too off-topic for you but here's a video idea. I heard that Howard Carter had to contrive to make Tutankhamun's tomb have been hit by grave robbers in ancient times. He had to do this because if not, the Egyptian Museum would have taken everything without even reimbursing Howards Carter and Lord Carnarvon for their multi-million dollar expenses (in today's terms at least $7 million, I heard). Anything about Tutankhamun, his life, his tomb, etc would be most appreciated. PS: RE GOLD I've been trying to find an answer to this but it's like trying to hack into a state secret. Ancient Egyptian gold (for example the gold in King Tut's funerary mask. What percentage pure gold is it (or how many karats, if you prefer)? How pure did royal gold tend to be in Ancient Egypt? Was it worked found (in its natural alloys)... was it purified...? What's the situation with Ancient Egyptian gold?

Hello Ancient Architects, I love your work. Unchartered X, Bright Insight, Randall Carlson, Graham Hancock, Snake Bro's, Brien Foerster, Cfapps, Megalithomania, Praveen Mohan and many others are my favourite way to while away lockdown. And you're all getting together!! Learning about ancient history and civilisations has filled me with a sense of wonder. Sacred geometry is blowing my mind. I recently saw a documentary on the "pendant" stone structures in AlUla (Architects of Ancient Arabia). I think they are comets! There are also triangle structures. Can you please do a clip on these? Cheers!

Brilliant, Bravo! Nice to see you back to this level of research. Cheers!

[@SametDemir]

I am completely unstudied on the subject and new to your videos but when i saw the quartz sand i thought may be the builders could have used them to slide the blocks when building the pyramid.

[@tonygarcia0072]

I don't know about using the sand for sliding the blocks around, but to my mind the black powder of insect origin found when they blasted into one of the relieving chambers bears a startling similarity to today's graphite, used for lubrication.

[@Olkv3D]

I'm curious if there are other publications that have this misspelling @16:35, and curious about how times it's been cited as that in other works; then realizing how difficult it really must be to find specific information even today.

Wow, great job with the research. You'd never expect that there'd be quarts sand filling possible voids and misspelled names throwing you for a loop.

[@AnimeOtakuDrew]

You raised the very plausible possibility that there are additional chambers that failed to appear on the various scans because they're filled with sand rather than being empty voids. Is it possible that there could be unknown chambers in the second pyramid as well that didn't appear when it was scanned because they are similarly filled? Just a thought that occurred to me.

[@CasuallyCommentingBaseThings]

You really reached for those likes on this comment. Didn’t work tho

[@ThePolysulfide]

I have always been fascinated by the “door”. The two metal “handles” sure look like electrical attachments to me.

[@davidcorbett1713]

Copper lug handles they remind me of 2 Battery type connectors. The double sided hook found in the shaft I think fitted perfectly on the handles. My thought is that the hook and cedar wooden shaft was a tool to lower the blocking stone into place after building the shaft from above.

[@weaktearecords]

They did find residue from saltwater throughout the pyramid, which is a great conductor of electricity. Combine that with copper wire near the top and lightning strikes (they are the tallest things around) and there is a possibility.... They sure seem functional, like utility buildings today. Especially since there are no hieroglyphs in them

[@weaktearecords]

@@mnomadvfx it's still there deep inside a closed building. That makes it a possibility. If people would stop saying what they could NOT be and just entertain possibilities they'd probably figure it out. I can certainly say it is NOT a tomb.

[@tonygarcia0072]

I have previously commented on another of your videos that one of the clips of the Djedi robot's ascent of the southern shaft shows a fleeting glimpse of red writing on the ceiling of the passage at timestamp 2:31:39. I did not receive an acknowledgement from you then, and could not obtain an explanation elsewhere. Is it possible that in editing the clip a portion of the video from the Northern shaft was included with the video for the Southern shaft by mistake?

[@Saki630]

good job! We like the enlargement hypothesis of the pyramid! I have my own ideas and want to test on how to cut granite with the precision and speed they must have done it just to cut the stones in a rough shape. There is no way they used copper and dolorite alone 24hrs a day for months just to get 1 piece made.

[@Shamsithaca]

Can someone remind me why the original entrance to the pyramid closed and when it may have been? Also, what is behind the main entrance chevron blocks? Thanks!

[@AncientArchitects]

It’s a theory... there is a void behind the chevrons. Houdin hypothesises thats the real entrance and there is a ‘royal circuit’ of passages still unopened. The passages we see today he thinks were the ones used by the builders only.

[@Shamsithaca]

@@AncientArchitects Thanks for your reply. Its a surprise that archeologists and engineers have not explored what is clearly the supposed "main entrance" other than small wired cameras. Mind boggling to think what it may have looked like during its initial use.

[@loneriot]

@@Shamsithaca I think a lot of this comes down to a lack of permissions. They can't just go cutting into the side of the pyramids looking for entrances.

[@Fuzzmo147]

@@loneriot So are the chevrons behind a layer of casing stones then….?

[@Shamsithaca]

@@loneriot Thats fine, I am pretty sure they may have looked in using cameras or something at least. I cant imagine 80 years of red tape to look into the chevron side. Also old photos show roads that lead upto what may be other entrances also. This place has been pilfered for 1000s of years, might as well do a bit more for the sake of research. haha

[@JS-cu8bz]

I've always had an interest in the mysteries surrounding the pyramids but this video sums up why I could never fully delve into this stuff. How incredibly frustrating it must be with unreleased reports, lost reports and just an apparent lack of desire to complete basic missions to find answers. Don't know how you don't fall into a deep despair...

[@octarineflame]

I read somewhere that the coffer in the kings chamber that it was originally in front/ in between the two shafts and it got moved by al mamun. Think it was in “the Giza power plant” a book by Christopher Dunn. Probably not significant but interesting if true.

[@wheelmanstan]

Have you been watching "Tomb Hunters"? I'm on the first episode but am actually liking it. The way it's filmed is pretty legit, not some silly headache-enducing reality-tv junk like I've seen before. I recommend.

[@panchopuskas1]

What has always intrigued is : were the 3 large pyramids designed as a complete plan or were they built one after the other according to the whims of the succeeding Kings? Looking at the plans of the plateau you have to wonder why the Great Pyramid was built so close to the edge of the plateau allowing space for the other 2 . Another question is whether the pyramids were built on the site of already existing buildings .......

[@shawntucker7674]

I've often thought that the 3 main pyramids, and perhaps the plateau are actually older surviving structures that were renovated by the early Dynastic Egyptians. It would not be hard to imagine people clearing older/damaged structures or claiming them as their own.

[@philoso377]

Following page 7:40 dating the pyramids. It was built after the great flood sometime after the sea level has been settled and not before. Another hint was inadvertently captured by a robot camera, a constellation star pattern marked on the ceiling where the shaft plug is. These constellation is popular to date the construction from ancient to today. Example? Hoover dam completion date was translated into constellation marked onto the dam surface.

[@kingsoloman2u458]

Great cliff hanger man keep it up u make the best short anceint mystery Vids

Hi, great vids, would the quartz found in the walls be for power generation?

[@mac-qt3wd]

Egyptian Obelisks are known to have been built with quartz stones inside them to protect citizens and generate energy by harnessing the power of the sun and the heavens above.

[@Shadamehr100]

[@chrisbrine9482]

For the same reasons the Arab world has been destroying historical sites for centuries.

[@LiveFreeOrDie2A]

YES!- THANK YOU! I was thinking the exact same thing the entire video myself. Like WTF is going on with EVERY past research discovery, with highly intriguing further research needed, just getting abandoned, no follow up, no info published, etc by these deadbeat researchers/“experts” who make a living studying the pyramids by not studying the pyramids. So frustrating! At this point I only half jokingly would like to say: “fuck it let’s just dismantle the damn things block by block and finally figure out what the answers to all these easily solvable mysteries are if anyone just gave enough of a damn to follow through!”

[@JohnVander70]

Great work! Waiting for updates!

[@iwitnessedit6713]

the sand was most likely used during the construction, when large blocks needed to be lowered into place they were loaded onto the sand and the sand was removed from the bottom to ease the block into place. This was most likely the method used in gabling. The angle of repose for coarse dry sand is 30-35 degrees, making the 39 degree shafts perfect sluices.

[@MaverickSeventySeven]

Great work!!!! Hope you reach your rainbow's end with further research!!!

[@worldofwonderwithin7323]

Interesting opinion on quartz sand! Great Channel by the way!👍 From a scientific perspective we know quartz can provide electricity and store memory. Even ancient people such as Hindus, Egyptians, Romans, Japanese, Chinese, Greeks, etc, all had practices using the powers of crystals including quartz. Ancient sites provide proof of sound and frequency knowledge as well. A video on how to plan and engineer a large scale building project might also help answer these questions. Would using quartz be the best option at that time and location for that project as back fill? Did they know their construction was so good it would stand the test of time, and if so, then why would they need to use quartz sand as backfill? Did they use it in all the pyramids if that was the so purpose? I’m leaning more with Nikola Tesla and would theorize it has to do with energy, frequency, and vibration. Which I believe the location and material used to construct the pyramid add up to more than structural backfill. As once a quartz crystals is adjusted to a particular frequency, it will maintain that frequency with high stability.

[@Grimzareaper666]

Another great video Matt, Thank you.

[@yakakiyakaki]

[@moonmagickisreal]

[@Taz6688]

What the current view on Houdin's theory of internal tunnel ramp? in the opening clip it shows some sort of brackets in the chamber, are these original or placed later to support power cables, I don't believe what we see now is all there is to the pyramid, but with Hawass in charge I think nothing that does not fit the current narrative will be stopped, withheld or hidden.

[@phoneguy4637]

I find the spring theory plausible. Khufu's name was Khnum-khuf. and Khnum was the god of springs (and soil). tadaah!^^

[@RangerRick-xv4mo]

What if the great pyramid was a refrigeration storehouse? For instance, hoarding a bountiful harvest for the winter or a drought year? I read somewhere that the international temp is a constant 68 degrees F, but that doesn’t take into account the casing stones. The casing stones were white, thus reflecting heat and probably allowing for even cooler temps. Especially if the temps back then were cooler to begin with due to less desertification. The grotto could have been water storage or helped with internal cooling. It could have also been like a root cellar or wine room. Interested to hear your theory.

[@prodiver7]

What is the size of the double hook? Would it fit the 'handles' of the door?

[@JohnSmith-ow7qr]

Excellent work as usual Matt! Is it just me or does anyone else clearly see a lamb's head (1:55, 2:50, and 3:57) in the Grotto?

[@marekgo6747]

The granite box could had been done outside and placed before the kings chamber was closed. Just by the way. But what is below the box and why nobody moved it by an inch? Why it wasn't placed in the centre of the chamber? Is it fixed or embedded to the floor?

[@kevinm9]

Once again fantastic video

[@sofa-lofa4241]

Re: The Iron plate, I remember reading about 2 different lab reports around the same time, one said traces of gold, the other said none, I'm sure Mat has mentioned it in a video around 2 years ago

[@stevenpritchard3519]

Quite possible the Grotto was once a pre pyramid funeral cave. After all the top wasn’t flat pre pyramid so shaft was deeper. Upper well shaft looks very sketchy. Possible early tomb robbers digging down to find the Kings Coffin or desperate workers needed air to breath and allow oil candles. If it’s a crude afterthought ventilation shaft something very important went on-down there. I still think under the apex below bedrock is a deep shaft containing the kings funeral crypt.

[@apoco_lips9957]

New video! Sweet!

[@AncientArchitects]

[@GrimReapiN]

An interesting idea that the pyramids were built in iterations and improved upon or enlarged. It would make sense then, that the construction took more than 20 years- hell even 50 years. Could even explain the multiple rooms!

[@rifz42]

it would be cool to have a robot X prize for who can make the best robot with the most amount of sensors and cameras to explore the shafts, and let the winner have a go.

[@thetroll1247]

A good drone & pilot could fly the shafts and chambers. Don't forget to put a camera on it.

[@fixbertha]

The biggest issue I have with all the "how the pyramids were built" videos is no one bothers to explain how the Egyptians managed to cut granite blocks with such precision and how they finished the surfaces. Same for the boxes in the Serapeum. There are many examples of stone working passed off as dynastic Egyptian that are, given the existing technology, quite impossible to explain. Even if we assume that they could pound and grind the stones to a decent finish the manhours required would be enormous. And making the surfaces perpendicular to each other and parallel to the opposite sides is a technical triumph. That still leaves the issue of how the stones were cut into rough shape with bronze and copper tools. Even a single sandstone block of the exterior would have taken a crew weeks to cut. Today with diamond discs on high speed wires flooded with water granite and quartzite take a considerable amount of time to cut.

[@debbralehrman5957]

There is nothing more frustrating Then words that are misspelled keeping you from information you're trying to obtain. I am glad you were able to find the correct spelling you needed. Looking forward to your video on this subject.

[@GrimReapiN]

As always great video

[@TheKenturtle]

curious there is a section in the Queens Chamber that mirrors the ascending gallery, ever smaller steps, I wonder if they are in direct proportion, ie in harmonic resonance with the ascending gallery?

[@asherajja4206]

So what is your opinion on that doorway looking like it has electrodes? I honestly used to think the power plant theory was totally absurd but after watching suspiscious observers channel and hearing what happens to a digital civilization when a major CME hits Earth, I'm open to the idea. If you think about it what we see of the great pyramid now is about what would be left of a crude power plant, mostly made of stone, after the CME got through frying everything copper and electronic.

[@CARRJ142]

Another great video.

[@greeneaglz2573]

My thoughts on the sand. Perhaps used to prevent damage to the structure from earthquakes.

[@TheTrumanZoo]

Great job man.

[@AncientArchitects]

Cheers

[@danielbedard6174]

Every time I see a picture of the king's chamber my eye goes right to the damage on the stone structure that is on the left corner. I have thought about the nature of this damage for some time as it starts at the top of the stone box and descends down into a slight triangle. I suspect the cover on the stone box was placed inside the box and did not reset on top of the stone box. If the cover was on top of the stone box they could have pried it off easily. But if the cover was inset, so it sat inside the outside walls of the box, you could not pry it open. So you would need to damage the side of the box wall to get a pry bar underneath it.

[@mikereddy-x9f]

The queens chamber is old? The kings chamber is new? Was it a pyramid? Before Khufu?

[@thelosttreasureschannel7043]

Fantastic video!!!!

[@od1452]

Yes ! I'm glad these mysteries haven't been forgotten. The Iron plate reminds me of Tu'ts Iron Daggar. People forget in spite of the Iron's origin.. it still needed to be made into a knife... so this implies forging .. regardless one needs tools harder than the blade to shape and sharpen it.. Then there is heat.. I'm certain they didn't use rock balls to make it. The shafts have been presented as straight and directed to stars... but they are not.. So what are they really? could they have helped in the construction... or were they "air" shafts that they thought they needed but didn't really.? The bending increases the mystery because it tells me that they didn't have to be straight....but why? I'm looking forward to your take on these topics. Keep up the good work. Thanks.

[@rudigerwolf9626]

Matt, thank-you. Another terrific video. May I add another? From what I understand, the Great Pyramid consists of 2.5million multi-ton blocks. The theory is that it was built by/for Khufu in roughly 30 years. Assuming we are correct in our understanding of the ancient Egyptian calendar with its 12 months and three ten-day weeks (9 working, 1 resting), and assuming they worked 12 hours per day, in total they had 116,640 hours (30yrs * 12 mo/yr * 27 day/mo * 12 hr/day) to build the pyramid. That means they would have to have placed 21.4 blocks/hour (2,500,000 blocks/116,640 hours). That is one block every 3 minutes. Honestly, that pace is simply unbelievable, especially using copper tools and manual labor. Would really appreciate someone pointing out an error in the logic.

[@jcashion123]

Everything I have read/heard indicates that it was more like 20 years, not 30. So, a block every 2 minutes. Even more impressive!

[@YoutubePremiumMem]

50,000 men working on the project year round for 20-30 years can do amazing things. Throw in that this was for their god on earth as well as a yearly tax payment - they were motivated. If you think this is impressive , look up Snefru who built 3 massive pyramids in that same time.

[@PawelJimmi]

Great Questions :-)

[@jfb112697]

I really need to see Houdin's theory tested. imo the internal layout of the Red Pyramid is often overlooked, it's by far the most similar structure to the Great Pyramid and I think it's almost a requirement that the people who designed the great pyramid were either the same or learned from the people who designed the red pyramid. I also don't think it makes sense for the architects to remove the red pyramid's internal layout features when designing the great pyramid, though I do see reasons for the additions of the subterranean and queen's chambers. I think it's very logical that Houdin is correct even not considering the substantial physical evidence.

[@scotth6814]

We need a robot that can retrieve the objects in the northern shaft of the Queen's Chamber. If nothing else, it will get the two rods out of the way, but we may find other objects that we can learn from. We just need to attach a pinching arm onto the robot that climbs these shafts.

[@Yeoldelole]

Matt, has anyone asked you about a mystery I've never heard anyone talk about? Why is it that the steeper, taller main pyramid is completely stripped of casing stones, while the slightly lower, better angled middle pyramid still has its casing stones up top? Is that a mystery worth considering?

[@AncientArchitects]

I guess it is... I’ll add it to my research list. Thanks for the idea

[@Yeoldelole]

@@AncientArchitects in other words, could there have been a special reason that whomever stripped the casing stones was so complete in doing it on the Great pyramid, when at a certain point the khafre pyramid undoubtedly was easier? I cannot wait for your queens chamber shaft video!!

[@awilbadoo]

very intresting nice work

[@360ODYSY]

@Ancient Architects regarding the shafts, please research any lost items that were described in older texts besides the dolarite ball. I've read about copper wires once coming from the shafts and there appears to be rust on the ceiling of the kings chamber indicating metal pillars either for support or perhaps electrical conductivity. It's far fetched but I believe the golden benben on top of the pyramid could have been connected with the copper wires one positive and one negative leading through the shafts into the king and queens chamber. That's why there are two holes and with the limestone acting as an insulator and granite as a conductor. As for the purpose, I can only come up with the fantastical which is charging the covenant of the ark as its described having electrical properties and the sarcophagus has the same dimensions as the ark. Tesla himself described Mozes as an electrician.

[@AncientArchitects]

Definately no evidence of wires of any kind in the pyramid. It’s a claim/assumption but without any evidence. There are rectangular black marks on the ceiling of the King’s Chamber. Could be from early Arab scaffolding or Modern era... could be ancient too, but not much work has been done on it.
