This is pretty interesting stuff. What do you think?

Very little of what they know is being released to the public, are my thoughts.

What was happening to the water before we started pumping it out?

“...These findings have now been erased from history books and Egyptian authorities deny the Sphinx chambers’ existence. ...”

Why would they erase it? To discourage treasure hunters, maybe?

Sounds like good source material for an RPG. Call of Cthulhu, maybe.
But folks have had ground-penetrating radar and various type of sonar around there and found little or nothing.

I have no friggin’ idea. However, I do know that ANYTHING that doesn’t comport with the accepted “truth” of human history, as characterized by the archaeological community, is denied as long as possible.

How long were we told that the Norse never made it to North America? Anything that indicated otherwise was “fake” - until, that is, it couldn’t be denied any longer. We’re supposed to believe that every single indigenous human being in the western hemisphere prior to 1492 (now 1000-1100 a.d.) walked across the Bering land bridge? That people who canoed or sailed hundreds or thousands of miles in the Pacific, around Africa, or from Northern Europe to South Asia could never have made it to North America? Please!

There is a helluva lot about human history that we just don’t know and probably never will. It’s no more “settled science” than global warming/climate change/global cooling.

The more you read about these structures you come to realize that something is really strange here.

First off, they’re much much older than believed. 6000 years? Secondly, originally the outer layer was pure white, with gold at the top. The granitie and monolith carvings could not possibly been done with the hand tools of the day.
Also the alignment and the materials used suggest that it could have been a large source of wireless energy.

The most logical thought is that the people who built these were far and away more advanced than believed.

Count me unconvinced. Psychic Edgar Cayce predicted the discovery of rooms underneath the Sphinx. Claims about the actual existence of rooms inside or near the Sphinx crop up now and then, usually due to the enthusiasm of Cayce fans eager to validate "America's Sleeping Prophet" as he was called.

The original published source of the claim and drawings is a defunct British newspaper that specialized in illustrated news from around the British Empire and the world. Then and now, British journalism has a highly inventive streak, with foreigners especially prone to finding themselves saddled with invented quotes and purely fictional claims. British libel law makes suit impractical and uneconomic.

The only individual named as a source is "Professor G A Reisner of Harvard University." This refers to George Andrew Reisner, a pioneering Egyptologist. He never published such findings or otherwise alerted his fellow Egyptologists about hidden rooms in the Sphinx in an era in which Britain ruled Egypt and US and British excavators had relatively easy access to the monuments at Giza.

In short, there is no evidence for hidden rooms inside or near the Sphinx. The only reasons to think so are the readings and predictions of a long dead psychic and the fabrications of an old British tabloid.

As for water being pumped from the ground near the Sphinx, it is likely part of an effort by the Egyptian authorities to preserve it and the pyramids. The growth of Cairo's suburbs and the year-round irrigation made possible by the Aswan Dam have raised the water table on the Giza plateau.

The result is that the pyramids and the Sphinx absorb water into their porous limestone, which causes salts to be deposited near their surfaces, resulting in the rock flaking away. The pyramids and the Sphinx are thus dissolving.

If the Sphinx is to survive, it must soon undergo renovations and repairs that include a detailed survey and study of the structure. Since Egypt will look to foreigners to pay for the work, the Sphinx will be examined carefully and the results published. Or, if the Egyptians to operate in their usual slipshod manner, the Sphinx will unveil its internal structure as it falls apart due to lack of adequate care.
