I realize it could easily not be the case, but is it POSSIBLE that the Chinese government has adopted its own "Area 51" in the form of a Giza-type megalithic complex at Shaanxi? Or are those pyramids of the latter, lesser quality? Forgive me if I missed something.

Yes, it is interesting when you consider all the theories on 'pyramid' power, but less thought is given to any relevance of an inverted pyramid.

Well - next year there will be a huge inverted pyramid out in the open for the world to admire in China's commercial capital.

Hi DG -

It does not appear to be the case as the pyramids are thousands of years old and the vast majority of them are still overgrown.

Cheers!

edit to add: and nice outside of the box thinking

Great thread, one of the best I've read in a long time. This is all brand new information to me.
I haven't been able to find much information about the age of these pyramids. Has anyone heard any estimates of how old they are reckoned to be?
I looked them up on Wikipedia and it didn't list a date, but there are a few odd things about the article, which I'll post here.


The so-called pyramids of China are actually ancient mausoleums and burial mounds. en.wikipedia.org...


So apparently they aren't pyramids after all, they're mausoleums and burial mounds. I didn't know the latter excluded the former, but I guess they do, at least according to Wiki. That stone object with the four sides coming to a point sure looked like a pyramid to me, but I guess it was either just a mausoleum or a mound... nice try though!

Also, this part intrigued me,


American scientists who have been in the area suggest that the height of 1,000 feet (300 m), more than twice as high as any of the Egyptian pyramids, may have been exaggerated, because most of the Chinese mounds of that area are built relatively low. en.wikipedia.org...

What? It doesn't say where the 1,000 feet number came from. Did you guys read anything about a thousand feet? Perhaps it came from the 1947 reports. But just look at the wording of the sentence, may have been exaggerated, most of the Chinese mounds, relatively low
This whole Wikipedia article is a bizarre and reads as if the author deliberately wants to discourage people from looking more closely at these pyramids. Obviously there is a lot there that needs looking into, and it seems the Chinese government and whoever wrote that wikipedia article are attempting to cover it up!
Again, fantastic post! In a more sane world your article would be on wikipedia, as it is about a million times more interesting and informative.
Clearly this strengthens the argument for an advanced, Atlantian civilization that influenced every continent on the earth. These structures have too much in common, in my opinion, to be just coincidental, much more than than gravity and wanting to build tall buildings as one poster argued. Whether a part of that common element is alien influence, I'm slightly inclined to think yes. If it comes out of the belly of a metal flying fire-breathing dragon and teaches me to make silk and other strange things- well, if I was ancient chinese I'd probably call it a God, and if I were a modern American I'd probably call it an alien.

Thanks for enlarging the photo I thought it looked familiar. They seem to have the same dark extreme almond shape eyes with no whites and pupils? I have posted several threads on Ancient America I wont post a link that's too uncool. But while researching for them I came across this picture which is from one of the earliest American civilizations the Olmec I thought I'd post here and see what you guys think?




The Olmec flourished during Mesoamerica's Formative period, dating roughly from 1400 BCE to about 400 BCE. They were the first Mesoamerican civilization and laid many of the foundations for the civilizations that followed.[1] Among other "firsts", there is evidence that the Olmec practiced ritual bloodletting and played the Mesoamerican ballgame, hallmarks of nearly all subsequent Mesoamerican societies.

April 10, 2009--Found in a treasure-filled tomb of the Moche culture in Peru, this 1,500-year-old gilded-copper-and-seashell funerary mask was one of two that shielded the face of the so-called Lord of Ucupe. The tomb was discovered in June by a team co-led by archaeologist Steve Bourget of the University of Texas. (Read full story.)

As in his tomb, the Lord of Ucupe in life would have been covered nearly head to toe in shining metal, so as to dazzle and distract his subjects, Bourget said. "This is the king of bling, literally."

But the locations of pyramids is not confined to these two countries. In 2006 five huge pyramids were found in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The world has known about the oldest pyramids, located in Europe, since 2006. More than twenty pyramids have been found so far and those researched so far are in Italy, Spain, France, Croatia, Slovenia, Serbia and Greece.

The Asian-Pacific area is also an unexplored region.
Open minded scientists, researchers and amateurs from all over the world have spoken about the mysterious pyramids in China for the last ten years. In fact there are more than 300 pyramids in central China but they have never been excavated in detail.

Apart from the Chinese pyramids there are many pyramidal hills in the Philippines which are known as ‘Chocolate Hills’.

world-pyramids.com

That picture was a brief reference to the points all over the world these structures exist.

Now to your "every pyramid is different" statement:
Pyramid: a special type of polyhedron (a polyhedron is a solid figure with flat faces that are polygons)in which all of the faces, except possibly the base, are triangles that meet in a common point called the vertex. The base is always a polygon (a polygon is a closed figure with 3 or more sides) but not always a triangle. There are three main kinds of pyramids: the Step Pyramid, which has six steps; the Bent Pyramid (only one was made, and that was for Pharaoh Sneferu), and the Straight-sided Pyramid (also known as the True Pyramid, which is also the most common).
*Only one bent pyramid was built, which was for Pharaoh Sneferu. The reason it was built was because the first pyramid that Sneferu built did not work out. The conclusion was that he tried again, but halfway through the pyramid, the measurements changed slightly, making the turnout of the Bent Pyramid of Dahshur.
*A True Pyramid is a tomb or a temple with a square base and four outside walls in forms of triangles that meet at the top.
*Step Pyramid, which has six steps.

So with the fact that the basic,or 3 sided pyramid is overwhelmingly more common than the others I can argue that the other designs(which all were MUCH less stable and structurally intact) were simply humans feeble attempt to recreate and do what humans do,add our own 'creative touch' to things.When we saw that they didn't work like we were showed we stayed with the main one,which is perfect and works.Also IMO the engineering is far beyond any civilization of the time.Why didn't the Greeks or Romans build them then?Why did China build them and stay with their traditional architecture?Could it be they were mimicking what the "Gods" showed them to do?

Good point also in Meso America the older pyramids built by the Olmec appear more sophisticated than the later Aztec and Mayan cultures that followed.

Another good thread Here

For the record I did not say "every pyramid is different".

Three sided pyramids are not common. Are there any? Egyptian pyramids are four sided (five if you count the base). Chinese and Mayan pyramids are four "sided" but truncated (for a total of 6 sides).

There is not a lot of technology involved with building pyramids, neither of earth or stone. What is needed is manpower and some rather simple instruments.

The Greeks built pyramids before the Egyptians did. Small ones, but of the classic shape. The Romans too built pyramids. Theirs were not as large as the Egyptian ones but the Romans were more practical, using their resources for more utilitarian structures. They used their manpower in maintaining their far flung empire.

Stargate? Trying to tell us something? Yeah, "Buy a Chevy".

Now that is one good looking structure. See what happens when you take something that works and "improve" on it?

This book is considered lost. A book of his that was not lost is titled “Handbook on Sex” and is probably the oldest known book on Sex known to us. Some sources also cite Huang-Di as having instructed Lao Tzu…the originator of Taoism.


That's very interesting. Considering that there is an actual text/book attributed to Huang-Di himself, why then is this entire story made out to be Myth if there is actual evidence?
