Bosnian Pyramid?
April 17, 2006 by Alun
No.
The Bosnian Pyramid, Visocica Hill, is the first European pyramid to be discovered
No.
Here’s another, the pyramid of Cestius in Rome.
New confirmation about findings in Bosnia’s Valley of Pyramids
Bosnian Geodetic Institute (Geodetski Zavod BiH) is confirmed previous findings of the Foundation Archaeological Park: Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun .
‘If we connect a top of the pyramids (Sun, Moon, Dragon) by drawing a line. We can see that distance is equal. This lines are forming triangle. Sides of the triangle have equal lengths.’
Angles of this triangle are 60 degrees exactly (not any minute difference).
No. Using the map data from the Bosnian Pyramid site I get measurements of Sun –> Moon 2038m, Moon –> Dragon 2229m and Sun –> Dragon 2177m. If the pyramids do form an equilateral triangle then the Bosnian Geodetic Institute seem to have discovered the first equilateral triangle with non-equal sides.
Length of the edges of the Bosnian Pyramid of Sun is 365 metars (???)
No.
Half of the pyramid is under a massive hill. IF there is a pyramid beneath that hill you simply cannot yet measure the sides without making huge assumptions, and the accuracy of 365 metres is utterly spurious. It was remarkably forward thinking of the builders to metres.
Comparisons between the pyramidal complexes in Egypt and Mexico have revealed that the Bosnian pyramid is 220m high; the Great Pyramid measures 145m, while the highest pyramid in the Mexican complex is 75m.
Bosnian explorer Semir Osmanagić, who discovered the pyramidal structure in Bosnia believes that all three pyramids were constructed during the same period, with the Bosnian pyramid the last to be built. Visocica is one third higher than the Great Pyramid in Egypt, which is itself one third higher than that in Mexico. He believes that they could even have all been built by the same peoples.
No.
We cannot date the Egyptian pyramids to the exact year, nor the Pyramid of the Sun in Teotihuacan, but even if we have error bars of a few centuries then there’s still no overlap. The Mayan pyramids are roughly two millennia older (oops!) younger than the Egyptian pyramids. Add in the lack of Mayan artefacts in Egypt and vice versa and the lack of either in Bosnia and there’s a big problem which hand-waving won’t solve.
As a note the height of the Great Pyramid in Egypt is about 138m, but that’s not the original height because the uppermost stones are missing. The height of the Pyramid of the Sun is about 65m. If the Great Pyramid of Egypt were one-third higher than the Pyramid of the Sun it would be about 87m high. Even with his own measurements there’s no accuracy.
One possible reason for the inaccuracy is that the mapping seems to have been done by M C Escher. Look at the map below from their map pages and see if you can make sense of it.
If he’s consistently talking rubbish about the stuff which can be checked then there’s no reason to assume he’s talking any sense about things which can’t be checked. I’m told there’s a lot of genuine archaeological remains associated with Bosnian history on the hill which could be trashed. A lot of it was already destroyed in the recent war so why would someone want to do this?
Invidual or cooperate donations in a form of cheques or money orders from different countries, can be sent directly to:
Fondacija Arheološki park: Bosanska piramida Sunca
I hope it’s worth it.
For more on the Bosnian Pyramid then I recommend Science and Politics as little escapes Bora Zivkovic’s eye. The quotes are from the official sites www.bosnianpyramid.com and www.piramidasunca.ba
There has recently been a new pyramid discovered near Teotihuacan which is causing its own problems.
Additional: if you’re interested in what is being found and destroyed at the site then you may like to see the entry The Price of a Pyramid.

It’s a hoax. The “discoverer” of the site is a rather prolific writer on alternative history. He believes the “pyramid” is 12-14,000 years old. Here’s his alternative history website, which includes his book on the Bosnian “pyramid”: http://www.alternativnahistorija.com/ Only one of his books is available in English: http://www.alternativnahistorija.com/WMmain.htm
All the photographs show the same 2 sides of the “pyramid” from different orientations. Presumably, this is because from the other side the hill doesn’t look like a pyramid. The topo map doesn’t actually show a pyramid.
Yea, I don’t believe any pyramids exist any where, it’s all a lie. Not in Egypt , not in South America not anywhere. It’s all just made up. I never saw a pyramid anywhere. Archiololigists just make it up so they can get money for doing nothing but sitting around making up false pictures and reports.
The world is flat too. I don’t think Europe even exists. http://www.bosnianpyramids.org/
I’m sorry you’re upset Mr. Bear but above is the evidence as I see it. You may see it differently which is why I included links for other people to check what I’ve done. For instance I may have measured the sides of the claimed equilateral triangle wrong. That’s why I linked to the Google placemarks for anyone to check for themselves. If you have any evidence to back up any of the claims you make I’d be delighted to visit your site to read them.
It doesn’t help that some of the information coming from the dig is getting garbled. In the site you link to the claim is that three of the pyramids are just 365m apart. That’s simply not the case according to the official site. Perhaps that’s a communication error. There do seem to be a lot of communication errors. Visocica could be the earliest pyramid discovered in Europe, but it cannot be the first to be discovered because Italians have been passing the pyramid of Cestius, a two thousand year old pyramid on a daily basis for approximately twenty centuries.
It is also a problem that the reports coming from the team are flatly contradicting themselves, or else it’s a very flexible pyramid. First it’s a Mayan-style pyramid, then it’s an Egyptian style pyramid. It’s a big switch because these are thousands of miles. Aside from location and date there’s a big difference in architecture and use for these pyramids.
It took me a couple of minutes to look up the heights of the pyramids. It’s not difficult to check some of these claims for yourself, so please check out my measurements, the claims for the pyramid heights, the existence of an ancient pyramid in Rome and the differences between pyramids around the world and see if I’m wrong. I could be. Unfortunately if Osmanagić’s data is rubbish then it’s not really me you should be getting angry at.
Interesting that so many pyramids are covered in dirt. The Mayans, now this. I guess they were built before The Flood.
OhmyGoddess,
I am very worried about the ‘let them dig’ ethos as there seem to be no proper standards being adhered too - an exanple at random : some scales on the snaps at the least if you want to portray geology as ’tile’. no plans, no sections, no finds no evidence just assertions.
Hi,Im running a small blog in bosnian language (600 visits/day) dedicated to proving that Mr.Osmanagic´s so called “research” is just a bunch of rubbish (I also explored his books and found heavy inconsistencies,and no scientific method) . You wouldnt believe how fanatic his followers have become, they virtually make physical threats to “non-believers”, which is I guess stemming from the fact that many of these people lead pathetic and unproductive lives, hoping this “discovery” would somehow alter they pathetic existence. I have pointed people on my blog to this link for the exact data and thank You for the exact data you have posted. Is there further data that can be found to make further questions on Osmanagic´s “research” (google is full of his crappy propaganda)?
I love how everyone can mock these discoveries. I also don’t believe this is a pyramid but it is something. There are definently man made structures under the hill. Blocks which have been brought in and placed there by people of the past. Instead of sitting on a forum and crtizing, you should look at some of the excavation data and the Billy Rae comment is proponderous. No one has been attacked physically in Bosnia for their beliefs that it doesnt exist. 20 archaelogists came out and said bluntly they dont believe it. More international archaelogists need to be on the scene instead of talking about it from their homes. If you want to talk about the pyramids make an effort to go and see some things for yourself.

Yes… We have pyramides… I believe… I saw…
Sorry… this is my blogg… http://travnik.blogger.ba
Walker, check some of the comments on my blog, then say that no one of Osmanagic followers makes threats of physical violence !
America, the problem is that I did look at the ‘data’ he’s producing. The claims he makes aren’t backed up by his own evidence.
There certainly are man-made structures buried on the hill. There is, if memory serves, medieval settlement, a Roman fort, an Iron Age settlement and Neolithic flint scatter. There’s also a medieval necropolis and someone who is excavating the site down to the bedrock with a bulldozer.
I’ve added the link to The Price of a Pyramid at the bottom of the post because people seem to be missing that. It’s not that he thinks there’s a pyramid that bothers me particularly - it’s that he’s willing to eradicate 6,000 years of heritage to do it.
The Serb artillery tried to destroy the remains on the hill. It seems a bit odd that the locals are now willing to do the job for them.

It is still possible,regardless of the heights of the tops.You can check this by creating an equilateral triangle and u can make many diferrent positions of its ends in space….you are talking only about horizontal projections of the tops,they have to be talking about the positions of the tops in 3D,then?!That can be measured easily,i think,and that`s what they have to be talking about?

That’s an interesting idea Ravnatelj, and should be checkable using Pythagoras Theorem. There is a problem that Google Earth isn’t so good at elevation, so I’d be putting some errors into the measurement if I use GE data, but it could well explain the claim despite the 10% difference in the Moon –> Sun and Moon–> Dragon distances.
I’ve done some back of the paper calculations to work out how much higher or lower the temple of the Sun would have to be compared to the Temple of the Dragon to make the differences work. Unfortunately I’m getting wild answers around 900m! This would be a problem as Visicoca Hill is only 213 metres tall (according to Wikipedia). At the moment I think it’s more likely that I’m making a simple error somewhere rather than my answer being correct. If I have time I’ve draw some diagrams and go over it more thoroughly so someone can point out where I’ve gone wrong.

There are even mathematical evidences for what is claimed to be a Bosnian pyramid of sun that make the theory about the existence of the pyramid irrelevant. I am afraid that, beside being a great fanatic, Mr Osmanagic is trying to take financial adventage in regards to what he is trying to prove.
I live in Visoko, and I, as many other decent citizens of this town, would be overwhelmed if this would be true, nevertheless it is not likely to happen.

Hello All,
Well, they call it already ‘Bosnian VALLEY of Pyramids ‘ ! Let’s make a list of the ‘pyramids’ they found : ‘Pyramid of the Sun, Pyramid of the Moon, Pyramid of Dragon, Pyramid of Love, Temple of Earth’. So, apparantly every hill in Bosnia hides a ‘pyramid’ ! It’s loaded with ‘pyramids’ over there! (I read near Sarajevo there are too !). OK, 5 pyramids up till now. It must have been a mega-giant construction-site ! Now let’s be serious, where is the civilisaton (other buildings), artefacts, transportation-ways, artificial slopes (or did these ‘pyramid-builders’ carry their blocks on their shoulders ?), etc. Every true pyramid on other locations (e.g. Giza) has other buildings and cities in the vicinity …
I read on one of the ‘Bosnian pyramid’ websites that small to big stone balls were found after an earthquake 12 or 13 years ago, that they ‘were created at the same time as the ‘pyramids in the Bosnian Valley of Pyramids’ and that their existence proves an ancient civilisation existed in today’s Bosnia’.
In the past, on some occasions,such stone spheres were claimed to be made by man (I think it was Erich von Däniken, among others, who explained they were made by gods or aliens) . Of course, Osmanagic is the appropriate story-teller to use this old phantasy to emphasize the existence of his ‘ancient, pyramid-building civilization’ …
Stone balls are a well-known, NATURAL PHENOMENON !
American geologists determined the origins and age of stone balls after they had visited cerro Piedras Bola in 1968. Their analysis, based on research done on other naturally spherical rocks –those in New Mexico, USA, have similar origins - concluded that the rocks were formed tens of millions of years ago, TROUGH THE CHANCE CRYSTALLIZATION OF VOLCANIC ASH. This still candescent material, with temperatures estimated to reach between 500º and 800 º C, spewed from volcanos and flooded the environment. When it settled and cooled, concentric layers of molten rock underwent a crystallization process around glass particles contained in the molten material. These processes stopped due to cooling during different eras, depending on their location in the ash deposit. The result was these “balls,” formed in layers of different sizes (this explains the discovery of very small, small, medium-sized and big balls), similar to an onion. Over time, wind and climactic conditions have uncovered many of the spherical rocks buried in un-crystallized ash under the surface of the earth. The surface of the rock is rough and eroded by the weather and by movements of the earth.
UNFINISHED balls were never found . This is the ultimate proof that stone balls are not man made. In my opinion, such balls could have been polished smoothly SECONDARILY by man on a few locations, but they already existed. They were not originally carved out of a rock by man, but formed by nature, as described above.
See the photograph of a stone ball on this site :

The fantastic balls in el Cerro Piedras Bola (Jalisco)
Everything Osmanagic makes up, can be refuted.
Kind regards,
Ronny.

Does anybody know if the destruction on purpose of genuine archeological sties is a crime ?
COMMENT:
AUTHOR: alun
Intentional destruction is not a crime. Archaeological excavation is the recorded destruction of a site, which is why some archaeologists think it should only be done as a last resort. In the case of the Bosnian excavation I think it has all the necessary permits. I’d be surprised if it didn’t as it’s had a few leading Bosnian dignitaries visiting.
In many countries if a site isn’t explicitly protected then it’s fair game. You can for instance destroy ancient buildings beneath your back garden in the UK if you’re digging a swimming pool. In the USA there are pot-hunters aplenty who can ransack sites with little trouble.
COMMENT:
AUTHOR: Ron Zeno
There was a press release last year, refuting Osmanagić if I remember correctly, stating that the proper permits were approved but they were done without any archeologists involved because the licensing departments had none on staff.
COMMENT:
AUTHOR: BOSNIA NEWS
There are proffesional archeologists,geologists,historians etc. that are working on the site from the first day of excavation work on bosnian pyramids,…so everything is done by their supervision,and basically nothing can be destroyed.Don`t worry,people,be happy.
COMMENT:
AUTHOR: alun
Possibly, but not Grace Fegan it seems, despite Osmanagić’s claims. Nor, possibly, Royce Richards. Nor are the historians competent (see the photo of a European pyramid above) if they’re saying this is the first pyramid to be found in Europe. Further. excavation does involve destruction of a site. You cannot excavate the same material twice. Perhaps you can see why some people might not be convinced that the dig is quite as competent as is claimed.

And,I told you,nothing is going to be destroyed.Have you ever heard of anything in the world EVER being destroyed by professional archeologists?LOOOOOL Give me a break.
Here are some names of the professional archeologists and other scientists involved in this project so far:
Archaeology:
Silvana Cobanov, Degree in Archaeology, University of Zadar,Croatia
Sead Pilav, Degree in Archaeology, Jonkoping, Sweden
Saša Jankovic, archaeologist, University of Belgrade
A Greek archaeologist, Athanasia Gallou,also joined the team of researchers,recently (but i am not sure if she is actually a professional archeologist ?),
and it is also announced that more archeologists from Egypt and Mexico will join the team in the mid june of this year.
Geology:

I’m not Alun, ther is a list of people with degrees in archaeology - that does not make them professional archaeologists (in the sense that they belong to a professional institute with, for instance, recognised standards for conducting archaeological projects. At the very least some statement of their experience would be nice…
COMMENT:
AUTHOR: alun
It doesn’t matter how old it is it won’t be the first to be found because we already know of one. Or at least archaeologists and historians off the project know of another one. If the experts on site don’t then you wonder how expert they are.
If nothing is to be destroyed then it won’t be an excavation. This is usually mentioned in the first couple of weeks of an archaeology course. If I take an artefact from the ground I remove it from its context, which is why recording is important. If the site recording has equilateral triangles with different length sides and pyramids which change labels on a regular basis then how good is that recording likely to be?
I have looked at the committees and I see Royce Richards is on the archaeological committee. The logical course would be to contact him. Unfortunately the server at http://www.daare.sa.gov.au/ is down right now. The other members are even harder to track down at their home universities.
COMMENT:
AUTHOR: Doug Weller
I’ve seen the list. It had Royce Richards on it and as I’d already been told by someone who knew him that he didn’t believe Richards would be involved, I wasn’t surprised to see a statement allegedly from him saying that he had nothing to do with it.
Degrees aren’t enough. The geologist who seems to do all the talking for Osmanagic is Nadja Nukic who seems to have done a combined degree 35 years ago. I’d like to know what experience she’s had since.
When do we hear from any of the other named people? Are they really there working? What qualifications do they have? The Tuzla geologists were I believe also part of the team, yet the report they made for the foundation was simply dismissed with no serious comment.
Sead Pilav’s degree seems to be in the last year or two at most. And we have no verification he’s involved.
But in any case, he and the others mentioned above were supposed to be only strengthening an international team of archaeologists. Who are they? Why don’t we hear from them? Why don’t we hear from any archaeologists there in fact?
COMMENT:
AUTHOR: BOSNIA NEWS
Alun,if it is the oldest,then it is THE FIRST ONE (ever built),so it can be called safely “the first”,why not,they also call it “the mother of all pyramids”,and why not?No other pyramid like this one has ever been discovered in Europe before.
This Roman pyramid you are displaying here is simply a joke,it is the same as if you would show the pyramid built in Las Vegas,and use it to prove something,LET`S GO TO LAS VEGAS AND VISIT ONE OF MANY NORTH-AMERICAN PYRAMIDS!?LOL :)That Roman pyramid can be bulit in a few days by anyone,but try to build one by using 30-ton stone blocks,and to be over 200 metars high,that`s a real pyramid,so you can`t compere them at all.
And,according to you archiologists are actually destroyers,by definition.So,what are you talking about then,you are simply opposing yourself???You are against archeologists currently working on this site in Bosnia “because they are going to destroy something”,but on the other hand, you would like to see Royce there on the ground and everything would be OK.LOOOOOOOOL
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM????LOOOOOL

There may be a difference in how the story is reported in Bosnia and how it’s being reported elsewhere. Over here the announcement was that it was the first pyramid ever found in Europe. The Roman pyramid pictured is around two thousand years old. By most people’s standards 2000 years old is ancient.
The Bosnian pyramid might not be over 200 metres high. Osmanagic has also said that the sides are 365m long and slope in at 45 degrees. That makes the pyramid 187.5 metres high. The pyramid seems to gained or lost a height of about 30 metres. Or else the dig isn’t being done accurately.
As the other Bosnian pyramid posts here show, the reports are consistently inaccurate. You’re more than welcome to read other pages on this site and please feel free to follow the links to see if I’m wrong, because if I am wrong then this is fantastic news. I’d love this to be a pyramid, but the evidence is simply nonsensical so far.
My problem apart from the fact that the reports coming out are mathematically impossible isn’t that the excavation is going ahead, it’s that it doesn’t look like it’s going to be recorded accurately. But it’s not a huge problem. If the Bosnian people prefer fantasy to reality then it’s their site to bulldoze.

Dear Alun,
1.Archeologists,geologists,historians etc. working on the site,24/7 (you are seying they are going to destroy something,….i don`t think so).
2.Nobody in his right mind would oppose continuing exavation work on the site (you do)
3.You have no valid proof that it is not a pyramid.Sorry.
4.An egyptian expert recently confirmed it is a pyramid,saying even that it bears Giza hallmarks.He said:”“In my opinion, it is a type of pyramid, probably primitive pyramid … (that) we did not know until now,” Barakat told reporters at the dig on the northeastern side of Visocica hill, where huge stone blocks have been found.
“It is difficult for nature to create blocks like this and oriented in one orientation,” he said, pointing to compact polished blocks.
He added that sand layers between the blocks were the same type of artificial cement used in ancient Egyptian pyramids. Barakat said detailed study was needed to determine the age of the excavated blocks and the type of the material used, and said some Egyptian archaeologists would join the team in Bosnia around June 15th.”
Barakat has extensive knowledge of the pyramids in Giza and had been recommended for the Bosnian mission by Zahi Hawass, one of the world’s foremost Egyptologists.
5.Let`s see what is actually going to be discovered there,so you do not have to worry about nothing (but you do)
Peace.

1. Read a book on archaeological practice. I’d recommend Archaeology: Theories, Methods and Practice but the MOLAS manual is also good.
2. I’ve said here and on other posts here elsewhere that if it’s properly recorded the dig is fine. Feel free to read what I’ve written.
3. I’ve proven the published claims are impossible. Again read the other posts.
4. Bosnian experts familiar with the region disagree.
You can read the rest at the Hall of Ma’at.
So far everything I’ve been able to test about the claims has proven false. If there’s evidence to show there’s a pyramid there that will be fantastic. Until then I’ll remain sceptical. You might disagree, but you might be able to see why not everyone is convinced by the claims.
5. I’ll only be worried if the belief continues despite the lack of evidence. I hadn’t thought to write a Bosnian Pyramid article for Revise and Dissent, but I can be persuaded.
COMMENT:
AUTHOR: BOSNIA NEWS
Just to say something about the professors from University of Tuzla.Their “results” were based on spending just 2 hours on the site,BEFORE THE EXAVATION WORK ACTUALLY BEGUN,so they didn`t see a single stone block excavated.
Furthermore,who knows better about pyramids,them or an Egiptian exspert,also geologist,who has been studying pyramids his whole life?
One example,one of the geologists working on the site,Bosnian geologist Nadja Nukic,during the first drillings on the pyramid was pazzled by some “white material” appearing in between stones,she had no idea what it was until this Egyptian explained that that is actually the same type of artificial cement used on ancient Egyptian pyramids.But,Nadja is a real expert,and also familiar with the region very much,for example she worked recently on the reconstruction of the Old Bridge in Mostar,but she had no clue about this artificial cement,nor did professors from Tuzla.
Live and learn.
Geologists from University of Sarajevo have also started their own indenpendent geological studies of the Visocica Hill,let us see what are they going to say,are they going to confirm what some geologists from Tuzla concluded (who have never studied a single stone block excavated from the site) or they are going to confirm what the Egyptian geologist said after studying many of those excavated stone blocks on the site?
It remains to be seen.

It seems Mr Royce Richards is not working on the pyramid project. It seems Osmanagić cannot record who is working on his project, or measure the height of his pyramid so I’m not convinced he’s capable of excavating a complex site.
Comments are still welcome, but I’ve collated the various posts at Revise and Dissent, so that’s now the place to comment.
