"Archeologists and Physicists Discover Hidden Chamber in Naples"

A collaboration between particle physics and archaeology has led to the discovery of a hidden Hellenistic chamber in Naples, most likely a burial site. The use of muography, a non-invasive technique that uses cosmic rays and lasers, allowed researchers to examine the underground without physical excavation. The chamber's area measures roughly 6.5 by 11.5 feet and has a rectangular shape, indicating that it is human-made rather than natural. The researchers suspect this chamber is similar to others discovered in the late 1800s, such as the Hypogeum of the Toga-Wearers and the Hypogeum of the Pomegranates.
