The Great Pyramid of Giza is one of the ancient wonders of the world, and inside the majestic tomb of Pharoah Khufu, archaeological mysteries have captivated millions of scholars. The quest is still deep within the caverns of the burial chamber to learn about a civilization swept away by the sands of time.
According to British publications, an “esteemed anthropologist” named Dr. Paul Warner believes he also has evidence that the tomb of Jesus Christ lies below.
Some earth-shattering research is making the rounds in secular and Christian circles because of the bombastic claims Dr. Warner has reportedly made claiming the sarcophagus of Christ—and the Ark of the Covenant—is entrenched in stone and sand beneath a cave underneath the great Pyramid.
Although Warner has almost no digital footprint or easily identifiable scholarly affiliations or works, British and other Christian publications are repeating the claims associated with his name.
The claim presupposes that extensive fieldwork and surveys conducted within Egypt’s renowned structure substantiate a working hypothesis that these two remarkable discoveries were beneath the corbelled passageways of Giza. The investigations allegedly reveal anthropogenic formations situated beyond the obstructing stone in the southern corridor.
According to news reports, Dr. Warner has been actively pursuing his theories and dreams for over a decade and shared them with the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities. He allegedly indicated these are quartered behind a stone block sealing off the southern passageway’s subterranean chamber for millennia.
This is reportedly supported by “photos and video footage from ‘the deepest and most remote part of the original pyramid structure,’ carved out of the bedrock itself,” the UK’s Sun reports.
“After meeting at the office of Ahmed Issa (Minister for Tourism & Antiquities Egypt) 20th October 2022, Egypt agreed to receive my research data free of charge in return for a commitment that the Scan Pyramids Mission would radiate beyond the block in the subterranean chamber,” Dr. Warner is quoted as saying.
What has biblical scholars most curious about these hypothesized theories is that familiar sites to Christians, such as Mount Sinai (Exodus 19), the Mountain of Israel (Ezekiel 36), the Mount of Olives (Luke 21), and Mount Zion (Micah 4), are all, in fact, the Great Pyramid of Giza.
While this may be confounding to most Christians, it should be even more difficult to imagine that a scholar believes this could be the key to finally resolving stringent conflict in the Middle East. Warner’s studies gather this in all three Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Islam, and Christianity.
According to reports, Warner asserts, “Although the project has received support from the highest authorities in Egypt (including the office of the President himself), Hawass remains an obstacle to progress. New scientific ideas often attract violent opposition from the old guard – as evidenced throughout history – we have Copernicus, Galileo and Giordano Bruno to testify to this.”
Historians know these Renaissance figures were scorned for believing stars were distant suns with their solar systems.
What has yet to be known is if any of this is true or not.
Of course, this could be the next Dead Sea Scrolls, Rosetta Stone, or ancient Terracotta army—each was just missing for thousands of years. When they were discovered, they were debunked, theorized, and compartmentalized for years until people concluded their authenticity and reality.
Then again, Dr. Warner and his theories and discovery could be the makings of the Loch Ness Monster, Bigfoot, or whatever was in Area 52. Only one thing will be able to tell us anything—time.
