Pyramid found in Bosnia

.......and Elvis is rumoured to be making a return journey from Mars within the next two weeks.

I'm in agreement with Lord Ellpus. Photoshop/cleverness=hoax. Besides, it doesn't make any sense.

Here is some more information about the pyramid

The first link to a story didn't work. The msnbc piece shows a considerably different picture of the hill than the photoshopped nonsense at the top.

The most recent link does not work.

We have numerous "forts" in the UK that date from around the bronze age. They were usually built on a hill (as were most castles) and can look a bit like the remains of a pyramid, if one squints hard enough.

There are also about two thousand slag heaps (waste from mines) in Wales and the north east of England that are pyramid shaped.

Methinks that this Bosnian archaeologist is being encouraged to hype this up, in order to boost tourism.

If it turns out to be genuine, all power to them.......but.......nah, I don't think so.

I was amused to see the insistence on the sides facing the cardinal points of the compass . . . this is a reference to the pyramid of Cheops, the edges of which (not the sides) are said to point to the cardinal points of the compass. (The Van Daniken genre of con artists claim this is evidence of a host of preposterous purposes for the pyramid, rather than merely a tomb.) This, of course, ignores that there are literally thousands of pyramids in Africa (most are Numidian pyramids, and not Egyptian at all), the most of which cannot by any stretch of the imagination be said to have the same "alingment."

Given that they've referred to settlements in the region dating back seven thousand years, one wonders why they are attempting to make a connection to Egyptian pyramids, which aren't that old. One would think that they'd shoot for claims of primacy . . . altogether, a very confused performance, even if true.

Egyptian backs Bosnian pyramid claim

An Egyptian geologist has said that a hill in central Bosnia appeared to be a primitive human-made pyramid of uncertain age.
