摘要
The Queen’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid is an enigma all in itself and many use it as evidence the structure was not planned to be the tomb of Khufu because why would any king need two burial chambers?
It is an empty room devoid of inscriptions, paint and objects. It has two dead end shafts leading from the northern and southern walls. It has a corbelled niche on the eastern wall with a small opening inside it, an opening that was dug out and extended by later explorers.
I have previously explained the presence of the Queen’s Chamber by the idea it was a contingency burial chamber because the only limitations of the master architectural plan was the lifespan of Khufu. If he was to die before completion, its unlikely his successor, Djedefre, would have finished it according to the plan, if at all.
But many people often say there is no evidence the Queen’s Chamber was set up to be a burial chamber, which actually may not actually be the case, because most researchers overlook the account of Al Idrisi.
Al Idrisi is a credible historian who states in a firsthand account of the pyramid that in the 13th century AD, there was a sarcophagus inside the Queen's Chamber, and furthermore, there were also hieroglyphs on the ceiling.
