Gudang Padang Megalithic Site, IndonesiaGudang Padang is a site that sits close to the village of Karyamukti in West Java, Indonesia. First mentioned in the Report of the Department of Antiquities in 1914 and again in 1949 by Dutch historian, N.J. Krom, this place was only first officially visited in 1979 for archeological and historical purposes.What makes the Gudang Padang Megalithic site so fascinating is the possibility it could be the biggest megalithic structure ever built in the world. Even more, it could also be the oldest structure discovered so far, dating back sometime between 5,000 to 23,000 years old. To put in perspective, if true, it is older than the Egyptian Pyramids and even Gobekli Tepe in Turkey. At 23,000 years old, Gudang Padang and those that lived there were likely thriving and standing before the last Ice Age occured in 11,700 B.C. 3. Baalbeck, Lebanon Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the ruins at Baalbeck in Lebanon is considered a cornerstone of ancient civilization. The area has shown continued human habitation since 9000 B.C., making it an important part of human kinds ancient history. Through the centuries, Baalbeck has been a religious site for Christians, Muslims, Romans and even the Mesopotamians. In fact, many of the structures built there were once religious temples used by its inhabitants to serve and worship their respective gods. 2. 33,000-year-Old Bosnian PyramidsDiscovered in 2005, the Bosnian Pyramids are stirring up controversy for our current historical timeline.For centuries, the hills around Visoko, Bosnia were thought of as nothing more than just natural formations. It wasn’t until 2005 when Dr. Sam Osmanagich, an amateur archeologist and a decades-long pyramid enthusiast, first visited Visoko and noticed it seemed there was something more underneath the 3-foot thick vegetation. After researching and visiting hundreds of pyramid complexes around the world, he recognized the hill had noticeable slopes, triangular faces, obvious corners and a deliberate orientation. This led him to believe these “natural hills” were actually forgotten pyramids. 1. The OsirionConsidered as one of the most ancient sites in Upper Egypt, Abydos is believed to be where the ancient head of Osiris was buried. For centuries, it’s been considered a sacred city Hence, it was chosen as the location for the Great Temple of Abydos, otherwise known as the Temple of Seti I. The Temple of Seti I is the only structure in Egypt with a unique “L-shaped” design. It’s also known for having some of the finest raised reliefs and the only one with a full list of the Kings and Gods that presided over Egypt.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices.
