  • A resurfaced 1952 CIA file referencing a 'temple under Sphinx' has reignited online speculation about a hidden Hall of Records beneath the Giza plateau.
  • The CIA document is described as a 10-page dossier dated November 20, 1952, originally labeled a 'Presentation Form for Graphic Material' and linked to image inventories from 1950.
  • Proponents argue the standout 'Temple under Sphinx' line is not a standard archaeological description, fueling belief in a concealed archive.
  • Mainstream Egyptology remains skeptical; Zahi Hawass has long denied any Hall of Records beneath the Sphinx, citing thorough excavation and solid rock beneath the paw.
  • The new reference aligns with a wider conspiracy narrative linking Edgar Cayce’s Atlantis archive prophecy to a hidden chamber beneath the Sphinx.
  • Radar and seismic investigations in the 1990s found anomalies beneath the Giza plateau, but mainstream scholars did not confirm artificial chambers.
  • Hawass has repeatedly blocked further digging under the Sphinx, stating there is nothing but solid rock beneath the left paw.
  • The CIA document is primarily a photo inventory focusing on Afghanistan-related archaeological digs, villages, and geological surveys, not a disclosure of secrets.
  • The uproar is amplified by online forums where users speculate about ancient texts like the Book of Thoth being housed under the Sphinx.
  • Overall, the Hall of Records endures as a legendary topic with no verified discovery, despite renewed attention from the CIA document reference.
