What do you know about Gunung Padang - 'The 20-year-old pyramid' is extremely mysterious

Egypt's oldest pyramid was built nearly 5,000 years ago but a similar structure hidden deep beneath the rubble could be four times larger than currently located in a Southeast Asian country.

Egypt's oldest pyramid was built nearly 5,000 years ago but a similar structure hidden deep beneath the rubble could be four times larger. If this is the case, then this may cause scientists to rewrite history for the prehistoric period and attempt to clarify an ancient but extremely mysterious ancient civilization.

Gunung Padang ruins were first discovered in 1914

According to geologist, Dr. Danny Hilman , an area in West Java (Indonesia) needs to be more concerned because there is an ancient temple built in the period of about 9,000 to 20,000 years. That is Gunung Padang - evidence that a very large text has been formed for a long time but has never really existed in current studies.

Gunung Padang was first reported in 1914, nestled among volcanoes, banana forests and tea gardens, at an altitude of 2,903ft (886m) above sea level and the southern tip of Jakarta capital 75 miles (120km equivalent). According to the researchers, Gunung Padang is the last Pyramid in Southeast Asia and they speculate that there are countless rooms, tunnels, overgrown trees, and walls and areas beneath the elevated ground. The surrounding area is covered with a dense vegetation that has developed on this site over the centuries.

The terraces are surrounded by stone walls, consisting of 400 steps and about 311ft high (about 95m).

Results of analysis of many drilling samples in Gunung Padang show that dating milestones are astounding and inconsistent. The deeper you drill, the more mysterious this becomes. Initially, Gunung Padang was determined to be at least 5,000 years old, then 10,000 years old and finally 20,000 years old. Some other scholars even argue that the number could be up to 23,000. However, no matter what the conjecture is, these figures show that Gunung Padang is not only the oldest megalithic relic on Earth but also the oldest Pyramid-like structure until the time. current point.

So far, the official documents about Gunung Padang are quite few and unclear. If this work is discovered, the history of civilizations may need to be reconsidered.
