Is there a throne made from METEORITES hidden inside the Great Pyramid's secret void? Claims seat could help the Pharaoh 'move to the next life'

• Great Pyramid of Giza is one of the seven wonders of the  ancient world
• It has three known chambers and was built as a Pharaoh's tomb
• Experts last confirmed the existence of hidden space in the pyramid
• Now believed it could contain an iron throne to help a Pharoah pass on 

The mysterious 'huge void', at least 30 meters long, which was found inside the Great Pyramid of Giza could contain an 'iron throne' made using meteorites.

Archaeologists believe the throne is there to help a Pharaoh on his passage to the next life.

According to one ancient text researchers analysed, it is said that the Pharaoh, before reaching the stars of the north, will have to pass the 'gates of the sky' and sit on his 'throne of iron'.

The huge void was found in early November 2017 as part of the Scan Pyramids project, led by Mehdi Tayoubi (Hip Institute, Paris) and Kunihiro Morishima (University of Nagoya, Japan).

However, archaeologists have been baffled by what the area was used for.

Now Giulio Magli, Director of the Department of Mathematics and Professor of Archaeoastronomy at the Politecnico di Milano, says he may have the answer. 

'There is a possible interpretation, which is in good agreement with what we know about the Egyptian funerary religion as witnessed in the Pyramids Texts. 

'In these texts it is said that the pharaoh, before reaching the stars of the north, will have to pass the 'gates of the sky' and sit on his 'throne of iron'. 

Cheop's Pyramid, built around 2550 BC, is one of the largest and most complex monuments in the history of architecture.

Its internal rooms are accessible through narrow tunnels, one of which, before arriving at the funerary chamber, widens and rises suddenly forming the so-called Great Gallery. 

'The newly discovered room is over this gallery, but does not have a practical function of 'relieving weight ' from it, because the roof of the gallery itself was already built with a corbelled technique for this very reason,' said Magli  

He says that by looking at the throne of Cheop's mother, Queen Hetepheres, which has been found in pieces and reconstructed by Harvard University, we can get an idea of what the throne may look like.

It is a low chair of cedar wood covered with sheets of gold and faience. 

Cheops' could be similar, but coated with thin iron sheets. 

'Of course it would not be melted iron, but meteoritic iron, that is, fallen from the sky in the form of Iron meteorites (distinguishable due to the high percentage of Nickel) and again cited in the Texts,' the researchers say.
