Davison Discovers First Relieving Chamber Above King's Chamber
Detailed Account
British consul Nathaniel Davison discovers the first of five 'relieving chambers' stacked above the King's Chamber. These granite-beamed chambers were officially interpreted as structural support, but their piezoelectric granite construction and coupled-oscillator geometry would later become key evidence in the transmitter hypothesis. The other four chambers would be blasted open by Colonel Howard Vyse in 1837.
