Mr. Osmanagic explains the pyramids to the visitors
This interview - commented by myself - was made by a visitor at the foot of the "pyramid of the Moon" (Pljesevica), probably at the end of the 2006 summer; and this visitor had the opportunity to benefit from Mr. Osmanagic’s scientific explanations. The below extracts - that tell us more about (...)
Geology of the Bosnian "pyramids"
During the summer of 2006, the excavations made by the "Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun" Foundation on the two hills of Visocica and Pljesevica have revealed some features (sloping stone slabs, "pavements" and "terraces") that can, for the layman, appear as artificial. But all these features can (...)
The "Pyramid of the Moon" - Pljesevica
Begun in April 2006, the excavations have taken place, till May, exclusively on Visocica - the "pyramid of the Sun" - and it was not considered (en) to dig on the other "pyramides" in 2006, nor even in 2007. However, a news from the 14th of May (en) on the Foundation website announced the (...)
The "Pyramid of the Sun" - Visocica
When the excavations began, on the 14th of April 2006, Visocica hill, called "pyramid of the Sun" by Mr. Osmanagic, was the main center of interest for the Foundation. At that time, Visocica was supposed to be the only one to be excavated during 2006, and even during 2007, when there was just (...)
Scientific reports from July 2006
Since the first reports made before the beginning of the excavations (satellite and geological analyses), the Foundation has till now published only two new reports (bs) for the 2006 campaign, respectively on the 18th and 19th of July (the third "report", dated 31st July, is only a "re-writing" (...)
"No pyramids"
No news from Dr Schoch’s report since he came back from Bosnia; however a text from him (en) has been published on Colette Dowell’s blog on the 26th of August 2006, about the "alleged pyramids". Not very surprisingly when one remembers their first impressions (see here) his conclusion is "No (...)
A certain lack of professionalism
The 2006 excavation campaign has begun in the "valley of the pyramids" in Visoko on April 14th, and it is supposed to continue until the end of October. During this campaign, the Foundation website has been updated on a daily basis - at least for the Bosnian version - with short statements and (...)
First impressions from Robert Schoch and Colette Dowell
If you follow the Bosnian "pyramids" affair, you probably heard of the visit made by Robert Schoch (en) in Visoko. This geologist became quite famous with the controversy (en) that arised from his dating of the Sphinx of Giza (en). Robert Schoch holds, on the basis - to make it short - of (...)
Some news from the foreign scientists
It has been shown in this article how the "international team" mentioned by the Foundation has soon been revealed an almost empty claim, even if Mr. Osmanagic supporters continue on a regular basis to announce (en) (see the news of the 8th of June 2006) the arrival of scientists from every (...)
Frictions inside the Foundation ?
It seems that some people, inside the "Bosnian pyramid of the Sun" Foundation, have begun to distanciate themselves from it and its foundator. It may particularly be the case with Senad Hodovic, Director of Visoko Museum, who was the official "guaranty" of the project, and who was not exactly (...)
