Ground Penetrating Radar Finds Unexplained Chambers at Ancient Sites
In today’s scientific endeavors, scientists have many new gadgets and devices to help them explain the world around them. This is true in all fields including archaeology where ground penetrating radar is helping researchers determine what is lying underneath their feet before they actually start digging. This has been an invaluable tool for archaeologists in helping them locate ancient sites. The radar will only pick up large stone or metal objects but luckily our ancient ancestors built using megalithic stones so the radar is proving extremely helpful. There are many sites where this technology has been used in the past several decades and many more locations to explore with it too.
But it is what has been discovered at several ancient sites that is really getting people interested again in archaeology. Sites such as the Sphinx, Gobekli Tepe, China’s Mount Li Pyramid and Puma Punku have all revealed previously unknown chambers or tombs lying hidden underground.
