The Director General of the Pyramid Antiquities region, Ashraf Mohie El-Din, has clarified that recent reports of a huge model or structure being discovered near the Great Pyramid of Khufu are incorrect.
According to Mohie El-Din, a Japanese archaeological mission from the University of Waseda conducted a radar archaeological survey in the western cemetery of the Pyramids of Giza during the 2022-2023 excavation season with the approval of the Standing Committee for Egyptian Antiquities.
The survey revealed a cavity underground, prompting the formation of an Egyptian-Japanese archaeological mission to excavate the site. However, as of now, no new archaeological discoveries have been made.
Also in this regard, the Director General assured that a detailed report on the excavation results will be submitted to the Secretary-General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities (SCA) once the mission is completed.
