Giza Caves Sealed Shut With Iron Gate
“We have dozens of clear photos, along with film footage, that make it clear that extending from the Tomb of the Birds is an extensive series of cave passages that almost certainly reach beneath the main pyramid field,” Collins said.
Following the ensuing controversy, in August last year Dr Zahi Hawass launched an excavation of the tomb.
“We have experts in all fields working with us…Archaeologists, geologists, engineers, and architects, to name a few.” said Zahi Hawass.
In an email to Collins Hawass wrote:
“I will be posting information about our excavation at Giza on my web site and will be publishing the results of our work in due course.”
A few days ago Collins posted an update to the controversy revealing that the entrance to NC2 has recently been sealed shut with an iron gate, there by barring entry to the so-called ‘Giza Caves’.
Although from the photos the gate appears to be cemented in place and not moveable there is some speculation over whether or not this is a permanent fixture. Collins points to a padlock that can be seen still sealed in it’s plastic wrapping on the side of the gate.
The other tombs NC1 and NC3 have apperently also been fitting with similar metal gates.
