Archeologists have discovered what may be the first pyramid ever discovered in Europe. There are tunnels beneath the mound, which appears to be manmade. Here is a link to the BBC story.

I remember seeing something on tv about this a few months back. Either National Geographic, or discovery channel. The tv show pretty much made it appear the head archeologist there was the only one who thought this was man made at the time. Sounds like he finally has something solid (the tunnels) to go on at least. Should be interesting to see what develops.

The tunnels are quite interesting, and definitely not natural. The walls of the tunnels are made of stone blocks. It could be that this is something like the sphinx, partly a natural formation and partly modified by humans.

I loooooooove these kinds of things. I also love the possiblity of pyramids in places other than the Middle East which will make them safter to visit (for me at least).

It will be interesting to find out who built them. There is no known civilization on a par with ancient Egypt known to be in the area then.

Pyramids have always been on my "would like to see list". It will be interesting to see what this leads to.

Portable Toilet in China Found To Have Extraterrestrial Origins
By M. Sin Zen November 1, 2006

QAIDAM BASIN, Qinghai Province--Chinese researchers have confirmed the extraterrestrial origins of the 'Baigong Pipes'--a series of iron tubes linking a chamber on Mount Baigong to nearby Lake Tosun.

The scientists' report describes the ancient iron plumbing as part of a commode built by visiting aliens.

"The facilities accommodated number one, two, or three," said archaeologist Wing Ziyi.

Chemical analyses of the ancient washroom clinched the extraterrestrial hypothesis. Iron basins inside the chamber were found to contain traces of an antibacterial hand gel, effective against strains of heat-resistant and vaccuum-proof microorganisms previously found only in meteorites.

Dr. Ziyi has estimated the age of the Baigong commode to be between 308 and 460 million years.

According to the scientists, the existence of advanced valveless siphon flush technologies so long before the evolution of human life on Earth is the strongest evidence of the commode's extraplanetary origin.

"It's one of a very few 'Out-of-Place Artifacts,' or 'OOPArts' which suggest an alien presence on ancient Earth," said Dr. Ziyi.

"In fact, this commode represents a completely new class of these OOPArts, the 'Profoundly Out-of-Place Artifacts.'"

The Baigong toilet appears never to have been used, according to the researchers, and therefore offers few clues about the location of its designers' homeworld.

Dr. Ziyi, however, has noted the apparent alignment of the commode with the constellation Reticulum.

"This may have less to do with the stars than the direction of the winds on Mount Baigong," Dr. Ziyi admitted.

Ziyi's new book on these theories, Port-O-Lets of the Gods, will be published next year in English and Chinese.
