I was hearing the BBC, and the discoverer (I think that was the discoverer but don't cite me on this one) was saying that this hill is in fact a pyramid constructed by an ultra advanced civilization. He even speculated about a possible Atlantis connection. Any thoughts?

[paulie jay]

Maybe it's a pyramid, maybe it's not. But if it IS a pyramid why does that automatically involve an ultra advanced civilization? We already have pyramids in countries that didn't require ultra advanced civilizations for their constructions.

As far as a possible Atlantis connection is concerned - why not? I could also speculate that there is a connection to Middle Earth too, providing I didn't have to actually prove it.

I'd like to see the aerial and satellite imagery.

Look!!! Someone stacked these stones in a pointed heap!!! They must be an incredibly advanced civilization!!!

Dr Ray Stantz: Symmetrical book stacking. Just like the Philadelphia mass turbulence of 1947.
Dr. Peter Venkman: You're right, no human being would stack books like this.
:lol:

It seems that the "discoverer", Semir Osmanagic (http://www.alternativnahistorija.com/AH4.htm) has been seeing Atlantis and advanced civilizations before this discovery yet (things like "the Sfinx is from 10970 BC", and "the energy from the pyramids", can be found in that page) , so I think it is best to be sceptical until we have confirmation. For now, I think that either he has found a pyramid like building and interprets it rather fanciful, or he hasn't found anything serious at all... I guess it is the latter.

edit: Changed osmaganic into osmanagic, so people can find more info a bit easier...

Europe´s first pyramid... Is there other than the Louvre´s?

[TriangleMan]

Advanced civilizations should have better architechtural constructions than a pyramid. A pyramid is a pretty inefficient structure in terms of construction time and space requirements. That's why civilizations today don't build many of them.

[Fram]

But you have to remember that in those days, they didn't have electric razors, so a neverending supply of ultrasharp razorblades is a good enough raason to build a pyramid.

[TriangleMan]

But an ultraadvanced civilization probably had ultrasharp razors so they wouldn't need a pyramid in the first place. :razz:

[captain swoop]

Well they had them because they were in the Pyramid... end so on

[TriangleMan]

We have discovered the UltraRazor Paradox! :lol:

That's a pretty sharp observation.

I feel a sudden need to link to a certain thread of mine... :D

News Flash!

When the Picts built the worlds largest traffic cone, they had no idea that it would bankrupt their civilization.

The Palaeolithic Wilderness Society, on the other hand, had plenty to say...
"...it's the beginning of the end of all things..."
"...it will lead to civilisation..."
"...it means extinction for the mammoths, I hope you know that..."

Argos raises a good point: is erecting the pyramid at the Louvre really the act of an advanced civilization?

I thought they did it for the beauty.

[Nicolas]

They did it because they wanted a sharper image of Mona Lisa.

Here's one.

Aww! How pretty!
