looks like it is a passage still over ten years have gone by ... and still no movement by the Council of Antiquities
when they open up and let science have its day will be a very interesting time .
from article
Whether Mr Dormion is right remains to be seen. Mr Verd'hurt describes his "absolute frustration" at the Supreme Council of Antiquities' refusal to authorise further investigations, for which they have offered him no explanation. No one from the council was prepared to comment.
One respected Egyptologist, Jean-Pierre Corteggiani, of the French Institute of Oriental Archaeology in Cairo, was impressed by their work from the start. What first struck him, he said, was that the georadar images were collected and interpreted by a non-Egyptologist, Jean-Pierre Baron, of Safege, a French company that specialises in georadar.

hohum.....sometimes get a disturbing image that some of you lads are 1 comment away from dropping ya strides & webcamming yaselfs to your foes ala " well i've got the biggest...".
Seriously ,without pointing fingers , accept boys if none of ya were there (whenever it was ) peering over the shoulder of he who can claim to be THE owner of the idea/design......no ammount of chest puffing or foot stomping or even fingers in ears lalala-ing as others toss their own theories/dreams/hallucinations out there....whats with all the personal digs to other wondering folk getting another pair of panties all bunched.....& for what ??
still no definitive answer & never will be.
Now play nice !! :-)

Here is an article about the Great Pyramid Water Pump published in the current issue of World Explorer Magazine!
This article explains how the water pump worked.
Here is the link. wexclub.com...

I think that the second largest structure in the valley of the nile (the Great Pyramid) was also built to pump water.

Think whatever you like, but unless you have evidence to support your thoughts, they're nothing more than fantasy.

Yes evidence. I have evidence. I have the exact same evidence that is available to everyone. The direct physical evidence I have is the Great Pyramid. That is evidence. Certainly there are differing opinions as to the interpretation of that same direct physical evidence we all have. I hope people who have an interest enjoy my books and the free video series on our web site on how the Great Pyramid was built using water locks and barges. www.thepump.org

Just like the great pyramid your idea doesn't hold water. Having water around limestone is always a bad idea they soak it up like a sponge.

The bedrock in the area is made of limestone. Did the limestone bedrock soak up the Nile river?

The Nile bedrock is actually Cretaceous sandstone
If you don't even know that, then you don't know anything

Let's try this again. The issue was raised by someone about the limestone being porous. The water table at Giza is high and there are places in the area where they are pumping water out to lower the water table. If the limestone bedrock was so porous that the water would dissipate in the rock why is the water table high instead of the water dissipating away?
Maybe the bedrock at Giza and the limestone of the casing stones are not so porous.
Anyway the link www.thepump.org... has videos showing how the capstone (if there was one) was set in place and how the Great Pyramid was built level by level. Thank you for watching the videos.
