A recent study led by Italian researchers Filippo Biondi of the University of Strathclyde and Corrado Malanga of the University of Pisa has generated significant interest worldwide. On 23 March, 2025, they announced findings from their expedition, titled the Khafre Project, which claims the existence of a vast underground city beneath the Giza pyramids. The researchers suggested that this hidden city extends over 6,500 feet, far larger than the pyramids themselves. Malanga and Biondi employed pulse radar technology to generate high-resolution images of the subsurface, a method similar to sonar used for mapping the ocean floor. This technology allows for the detection of underground features by sending radar waves into the ground and analyzing the reflected signals. According to the report, the alleged findings include eight vertical structures extending over 2,100 feet beneath the pyramids, along with additional unidentified structures potentially lying at depths of 4,000 feet. These claims suggest a complex network of vertical cylindrical wells were discovered that could challenge our understanding of the area’s archaeological significance. However, this claim has drawn sharp criticism from experts. Lawrence Conyers, a ground-penetrating radar researcher at the University of Denver, called…
