Two of the most common theories are at completely opposite ends of the spectrum. The first theory is worldly in nature, suggesting that the void acts as a “construction gap” and a platform for builders to move from one part of the building to another.
However, the second theory suggests that it was the path between the chamber of the King and the chamber of the Queen. This could also suggest something else.
What Came First?
In the main chamber of the Great Pyramid, there is a granite coffer. What appears to be an entirely normal feature of this type of structure is actually something extraordinary. The reality is that the coffer is, in fact, a finely carved granite piece.
It was not possible for the Egyptians to fit the large piece through the passage, suggesting that the Great Pyramid could be built around the coffer instead of the other way around.
Mysterious Mortar
One of the greatest mysteries around the Great Pyramid is the mortar which was used to "glue" the blocks. The truth is that no archeologist has traced the origins of this mortar or the material used to make it to this day.
The only thing scientists know for sure is its chemical composition. Though they couldn't reproduce the composition, it is believed to be harder than the actual stone.
Attracting Millions
In one way or another, hardly anyone seems to be able to resist the attraction of the Giza Pyramids. Most people fall into one of two categories: a qualified Egyptologist who is determined to unlock the truths of these mysterious structures, or someone who has Egypt on his bucket list to visit Giza in particular.
The Great Pyramid of Giza is without a doubt the biggest reason why Egypt can attract more than five million visitors a year.
Throne From Space?
A Milan Polytechnic professor believes that a throne carved from a meteorite is stored deep within a secret chamber in the Great Pyramid. Since the dagger of King Tut was found in 1922, it has been well documented that the Ancient Egyptians used meteoric iron.
"In these texts, it is said that the pharaoh, before reaching the stars of the north, will have to pass the ‘gates of the sky’ and sit on his ‘throne of iron’," said Giulio Magli.
