Ukraine may be thousands of miles away from Egypt, but archaeologists there say they have found pyramids.

It is claimed that the monuments have been uncovered in the east of the country and that they predate the pyramids in Egypt.

But the claim that there is evidence of pyramids is being disputed. The prestigious Academy of Sciences has sent its own expert to the dig.

It believes that this could be the Ukrainian version of Stonehenge.

This could be one of the most exciting archaeological discoveries in recent years.

It is claimed that pyramids are buried underground in eastern Ukraine. A team digging at a site near to the city of Luhansk has unearthed a huge religious complex.

It has uncovered remains which are believed to date back thousands of years.

The archaeologists say that clay plates, weighing each at least two tonnes, were arranged in circles and plastered over.

It is thought that it will take years for archaeologists to uncover the hidden truth.

In the meantime, tourism chiefs are keen to cash in and are already planning to open a hotel nearby.

when are people gonna realize that humans hve been building things for alot longer than we think they have. it is my opinion that civilization is at least twice as old as we think it is. there are alot of underwater ruins in places that havent been dry for around 10000 years, pyramids everywhere. any ancient scientific data concerning such thing was destroyed by the inquisition. any legend or fokelore references are typically ignored.

I wish people would realise why ancient cultures built pyramids.

Until you've made certain technological advances a pyramid is the only thing you can build on a large scale. Nothing else is stable.

How are you going to do that with a pyramid? If we assume the builders hadn't seen Stargate that is...

Sure....during several periods in human history, great volumes of scientific and historical data were destroyed because they contradicted one religion or another.  We'd know alot more about ourselves and earlier civilizations if people didn't go around destroying that stuff so readily.

I honestly hope that the next time that sort of thing happens...someone puts as much knowledge as they can away and buries it somewhere safe for a while.

It took Europe how many hundreds of years to get to pre-collapse Roman technology after it croaked?
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

With Ukraine and Bosnia uncovering pyramids, I wouldn't be surprised if they pieced together the existance of a fairly advanced civilization inhabiting Eastern Europe and the Balkans. Or maybe it's all just a coincidence, given the somewhat flimsy scientific basis for the research of the Bosnian pyramid.

Somewhat old news, as there was talk of this last year. Overall I'd take it with a grain of salt for the moment. Not denying the possibility of a complex, stratified society in the past in that region, but there needs to be more finds before everyone should be jumping around.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill
