The controversial pyramid city off Japan

Scientists have not been able to determine the formation of the pyramid and the ladder at the Yonaguni Monument, the architectural complex located off the coast of Yonaguni, Japan.

The origin of the Yonaguni Monument, an underwater architectural complex consisting of stone steps and pyramids , located off the coast of Yonaguni, Ryukyu Island, Japan is a controversial topic over the years, the Daily Star 9 / 2 coverage.

The pyramids here are 27m high, made of sandstone and mudstone. It is thought to form at the end of the Ice Age, about 10,000 years ago, when the area was still rising on the sea.

The structures here are made of solid hard rock.

Scientists cannot explain how this city formed at the bottom of the Pacific. Many people believe that pyramids are products of aliens, while some say it is artificial. Masaaki Kimura, professor at Rykukyus University, Okinawa, Japan, affirmed Yonaguni Monument is a product of the ancient people because there are many artificial structures and pottery, stone tools and fireplaces.

However, geologist Robert Schoch thinks this work is naturally formed.

"The structures here are made of intact hard rock, not because of the individual stones stacked on each other. Waves and tides erode sandstones, making it look like a ladder , " Schoch to speak.
