pyramid or a gigant hoax?
If it`s true about a pyramid, it would be the first pyramid discovered in Europe, and one of the
history`s greatest discoveries. The area where the claimed discovery is done, has a
rich history. Visoko was the capital of Bosnia in the Middle Ages.
The world's oldest and largest pyramid found in Bosnia? Is it to good to be true? This
incredible story has been covered in the media around the world for
many months now, and perhaps even longer. Also wellknown media as BBC has
published articles about the discovery on its website.
Is the story credible? Where are the evidences? Who are the researchers?
Many people have been sceptical to the reports about an ancient pyramid in
Europe, and the pyramid is also said to be a gigant. Is it a false claim in
Balkans? Is it not strange that somebody build a pyramid in Europe,
and that they who recorded the history even knew about it?
Already in April previous year (2005), Bosnia's daily Dnevni Avaz reported
about "a sensational discovery" of "the first European pyramid" in the central
town of Visoko, about 20 miles north of Sarajevo.
Dnevni Avaz has reported that excavations at a hill site above the
town have been going on for several months and initial analyses "have confirmed
the original claim that this is Europe's first pyramid and a monumental
building, similar in dimensions to the Egyptian pyramids." The artefact is said
to be around 10,000 years old. "The pyramid is 100 metres high and there is
evidence that it contains rooms and a monumental causeway ... The plateau is
built of stone blocks, which indicates the presence at the time of a highly
developed civilisation,"
Pyramid in Europe? True or false? Time will show! Something going on in
Bosnia!
