TUM researchers confirm assumed chamber. Researchers use an endoscope to look into the chamber, which has probably not been seen by humans for around 4500 years. An international research team has discovered a previously unknown chamber in the Cheops pyramid of Giza. As early as 2016 measurements had given reason to assume the existence of a hidden hollow space in the vicinity of the chevron blocks over the entrance. Now scientists from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have used ultrasound and endoscopy to make an important contribution to confirming this assumption. The status of the Egyptian pyramid as one of the best investigated structures in the world makes this find particularly important. The Cheops pyramid is considered the largest and oldest of the pyramids of Giza.
