Egos Clash Behind Stall in Search for Nefertiti’s Tomb

British Egyptologist Nicholas Reeves, director of the Amarna Royal Tombs Project, claimed last year that the tomb of King Tutankhamun holds a hidden doorway that leads to the tomb of Queen Nefertiti, the stepmother of Tutankhamun. Additional scans by radar technologist Hirokatsu Watanabe seem to also confirm there are two hidden chambers based on structural anomalies.

Yet, Live Science, recently released the news that National Geographic Society’s radar scans of King Tutankhamun’s tomb show no hidden chambers behind the walls. Dean Goodman, a geophysicist at GPR-Slice software, which conducted the scans for National Geographic and issued the definitive word, said he was barred from commenting on his findings. Disappointment reigned throughout the Egyptology world except, perhaps, for one man—Dr. Zahi Hawass.

Hawass, a former minister of Egyptian antiquities, who was ousted  due to accusations of corruption and Image: Zahi Hawass illegally selling antiquities in 2011, has vehemently been saying since day one that there are no hidden chambers, and that Nefertiti will not be found behind the walls, because he already found her mummy several years ago, which was aired on a TV show, one of many he has hosted for the History Channel, National Geographic and others. He points to DNA testing to confirm the legitimacy of his discovery.

Seasoned Egyptologists will readily admit that DNA testing on any mummy is inconclusive. The pharaohs and queens all inter-married within the royal family to protect sovereign blood lines, so any mummy found within a cache or “family” of mummies, would have similar DNA, rendering positive identification almost impossible.

Royal mummies were often moved from their initial burial site, sometimes put in used coffins, stripped of identification (and jewels), as was the case with the unknown mummy Hawass claims is his Nefertiti. In Egypt, as everywhere else in the world, DNA analysis is not a perfect science. Consequently, many questioned Hawass’ stance that he had actually found the real Nefertiti. But to challenge him, while he was still minister, was considered professional suicide.

The problem with Hawass is that he hates to be proven wrong. He also doesn’t like to watch from the sidelines while another Egyptologist, especially a foreign one such as Nicholas Reeves, might get credit for what could turn out to be the discovery of the century. It is no secret Hawass has openly challenged and ridiculed Reeves every step of the way, threatening that Reeves “would never be allowed to test his theory.”

Many authored Egyptologists, often allude in their books to Hawass dismissing their initial findings, sometimes even shutting down their digs or denying them further access, only to come back at a later time, when everyone is gone, and take credit for their discovery. Access to ancient sites, meant pandering to Hawass. Is it any wonder the man has made plenty of enemies over the years, resulting in his swift ouster during the 2011 Arab Spring uprising and regime change. Many Egyptologists say that while Hawass has done much to preserve ancient history during his reign as antiquities minister, he also did much to suppress important findings.

After his fall from professional grace, Hawass vowed to make a comeback. Towards this end, insiders currently believe he has been working behind the scenes to sow seeds of doubt and dissension between all parties, including the current minister of antiquities Khaled El-Enany, and the recently replaced minster, Mamdouh Eldamaty, who declared he was “90 percent” certain that such hidden chambers exist. Hawass may have been ousted from direct power, but he still seems to think he wields a mighty sword of influence behind the scenes. He may be right.

No one is sure why National Geographic abruptly pulled the plug, claiming nothing is there, when others have found evidence to the contrary, but insiders allege that Hawass might somehow be behind it.  Hawass’ relationship with the National Geographic Society goes way back. In fact, it was because of some of the contracts he illegally made with National Geographic, without required Egyptian government authorization, which contributed to him being accused of corruption charges for personal profit. Insiders theorize that Hawass may, once again, have his own agenda and timeline for this potential new discovery.

Archaeologist Howard Carter, who discovered King Tut’s untouched tomb hidden under another tomb in 1922, may not have thought to look any further in his tomb search. In 1998, when the Amarna Royal Tombs Project was granted permission to search for new tombs in the Valley of the Kings, Nicholas Reeves recalled the information once given by Egypt’s infamous seer Om Sety. In the book, Om Sety’s Egypt – A Story of Ancient Mysteries, Secret Lives, and the Lost History of the Pharaohs, by Hanny el Zeini and Catherine Dees, Om Sety talked about Nefertiti’s tomb:

Chapter 18, “She Who Waits: Finding Nefertiti (p. 265). “Now, about the tomb of Nefertiti”, [Omm Sety] continued, sounding a bit hesitant. “I did once ask His Majesty where it was, and he told me. He said, `Why do you want to know?` I said I would like to have it excavated, and he said, `No, you must not. We don`t want anything more of this family known`. But he did (p. 266) tell me where it was, and I can tell you this much. It`s in the Valley of the Kings, and it`s quite near to the Tutankhamun tomb. But it`s in a place where nobody would ever think of looking for it,” she laughed. “And apparently it is still intact.”

Debate continues to rage, as witnessed at this past weekend’s Second Annual Tutankhamun Grand Egyptian Museum Conference in Cairo. Over a hundred people watched the two former government ministers, Hawass and Eldamaty, sit onstage and angrily accuse each other of trying to drill holes into World Heritage Sites without proper permission.

The quarter-size hole needed in Tut’s tomb to put speculation to rest, would be drilled near the floor of the unpainted North wall (believed to be a false wall), and a small fiber optics camera would be inserted. No one is threatening to drill without permission. Permission to do so is what this entire drama is all about. They drilled holes even bigger in the hidden door found in the shaft of the King’s Chamber in the Great Pyramid during Hawass’ time. So this is really a power struggle between ego and politics.

Right now there are two different radar scans showing contradictory evidence. In Reeves’s theory, these doorways present several clues suggesting that the tomb was originally built for another ruler—Nefertiti, the principal wife of Akhenaten. It is not certain whether she is the biological mother of Tutankhamen,  or if he is a stepson by another of Akhenaten’s wives. But if she is buried in the hidden chamber next to him, it would certainly support a maternal theory.

Nefertiti died suddenly in year three of Tutankhamun’s reign (1331 BC) and apparently vanished without a trace. When Tutankhamun himself died shortly into his rulership, at age 19, in all likelihood he was hurriedly buried in someone else’s finished tomb—someone with rank who had a tomb befitting a king. Tut’s current tomb is considered quite small, the size of a royal’s antechamber, not a full tomb. This is considered quite unusual for a king, even for one that had an uneventful and short reign. This would lead to the theory that it might be a partitioned double tomb. Perhaps, Om Sety was correct in saying that Nefertiti was buried close to Tutankhamun” where nobody would think to look,” (at least for centuries, that is).

I’m sure before long, we will all know the truth about Nefertiti’s final resting place. That should be the treasure of all treasures.

Great Pyramid Ascension Chambers Revealed – Part 3

PyramidThe Ancient Egyptians had a saying: “As above, so below,” meaning that man is the counterpoint of God on Earth. To look without, is to look within man. This was believed to hold the key to all mysteries.

To understand the chambers inside the Great Pyramid is akin to looking at an evolutionary timetable for man itself. New discoveries are being unlocked as man is being filled with the Light of Consciousness and Cosmic Awareness.

The King’s and Queen’s Chambers did not initially have such mundane names. Long ago these chamber rooms were seen as “temples” because they were pathways to the sacred knowledge of the universe. They were the Temples to Inner Man.

Oftentimes the Queen’s Chamber is seen as the poor second cousin to the King’s Chamber, butgreatpyramid3-19 what many do not know is that the Queen’s chamber was “control central” for the pyramid. Think of it as the switch/relay room of a dimensional access station. From this chamber, electromagnetic fields were directed up from the depths of the pyramid through the King’s Chamber and straight to the gold capstone and sun crystal that was once positioned atop the pyramid like a powerful antenna.

Both the King’s and Queen’s chambers have shafts that are aligned to certain star system coordinates in the cosmos. The Queen’s Chamber has two shafts that were bricked over, but uncovered in 1872. They can be found on the north and south walls of the chamber and are aligned with the Orion Constellation. While this fact is well-known, little is understood of the shafts’ true purpose.

TC-and-rover-Southern-shaft-entranceIn 1993 German engineer, Rudolph Gantenbrink, sent a robot called Upuaut2 (Wepwawet – “the opener of the ways”) to video the inner walls of these shafts. He discovered that the southern shaft ended with a small limestone slab in which two heavily corroded pieces of copper had been inserted. The door is estimated to be about six centimetres thick and is only about six meters from the outer surface of the pyramid.

Gantenbrink tried to video the northern shaft, butSouthern-chamber-secret couldn’t get around the curve. In 2002, a National Geographic robot, inserted a miniature fibre-optic camera into a three-quarter-of-an-inch hole to reveal a rough-hewn blocking stone about 21 centimetres beyond the original southern shaft door. It appeared to be covering a cracked surface that was sealed over. A similar discovery was also made in the southern shaft of the Queen’s Chamber.

What does it mean? The only clue is the strange symbols on the other side of the shaft door which the camera recorded through the bored hole—not hieroglyphics, not Sumerian, but a language which is unknown and undecipherable to those unable to read it.

These shafts are very important. While the Great Pyramid had multi-purposes, its most important function was as an inter-dimensional teleportation device (also known as an “Ascension Chamber”). During that time, some very advanced souls had learned how to create wormholes in spacetime to connect with the wisdom of the universe.

These hidden shafts, which only advanced robotics, much like we have today, could access, were intentionally sealed up at one time. They had a unique purpose. They were like runways to a cosmic airport for those who had mastered Light Transfiguration, the ability to send their ethereal bodies to higher dimensions.

According to remote viewer, clairvoyant and author EM Nicolay, the strange writing seen on the shaft wall does not contain any profound message for humanity by some alien race. The writing is actually instructional coordinates, much like today’s airport runway symbols which give path directions. These directions also tell the journeying soul how and when to “push through” to transverse specific higher dimensional areas of the cosmos. This is not as surprising as it may sound. The Ancient Egyptians were big on how-to instructions to access the stars even after death, as evidenced from inside funerary coffins.

While some may balk at the possibility of the Ancients having teleportation technology, this science is not new. The U.S. government has already successfully experimented with teleportation and time travel, compliments of the inventor Nikola Tesla, who developed a teleportation device before he died. This device became the secret U.S. military DARPA program known as Project Pegasus.

It was actually the Ancient Atlanteans who brought this “ascension” technology with them to Egypt just prior to the Great Flood that would bring down Atlantis (see Part 1 and Part 2). Unfortunately, much like DARPA, this knowledge got into the wrong hands during the reign of the Pharaoh Akhenaten, where the powerful and mighty Amun priesthood sabotaged it in order to control universal access. Their tampering, under the guise of being helpful, trapped some souls—leaving them in a state of dimensional limbo unable to return or ascend higher.

It was Akhenaten who had the Great Pyramid’s gold/crystal capstone removed, rendering its energy and purpose virtually useless.  At the same time, he dismantled its functional components and closed down all passage ways into the Great Pyramid—an act that would seal it off for thousands of years.

It’s only been in the last 50 years that much of these discoveries inside the pyramid have resurfaced. We are once again, like in ancient times, reaching an evolutionary time unlock period where Light is streaming forth from the cosmos and awakening us prior to a 5th dimensional shift. Are we ready for it?

Great Pyramid, Khufu burial chamberIn our own way, we are all preparing for this transition. Recently, I led a small group of eight people into the King’s Chamber for two hours of private time in the early hours of the morning prior to dawn.

We each brought with us a pitch-pipe. In unison we tuned ourselves to the tone “A,” which is the frequency of the pyramid and the sarcophagus. As we took turns laying down and meditating inside the sarcophagus, the others moved around it in a procession doing harmonic overtones and “Omming.” The energy was so intense in the chamber, we could feel our bodies vibrating in resonance. Down below, in the Grand Gallery, the one lone guard on duty later would tell us that our voices reverberated throughout the pyramid, sounding like a heavenly choir.

One can only imagine what the energy would have been like during ancient times when white limestone encased the outside of the pyramid and the gold and crystal capstone set up a powerful directional energy field. Even without it, it was easy to feel one’s physical body transport into time and space, while bathed in the resonance of this “temple”.

Before we left, we all stood together inside the sarcophagus, lined up like the chakras in the energy body, and formed a silent prayer for all our brothers, near and far, on all cosmic dimensions. For some in our group it opened memories and helped in healing. It was a transformative experience on so many levels—which is really what the ancients always intended it to be.

Peace and Namaste to all.
