Since the beginning of the excavations in Visoko valley to confirm Mr. Osmanagic’s hypothesis about the Bosnian "pyramids", his Foundation has frequently promised an "international scientific validation" of the project and the "evidence". If a few Egyptian or Italian scientists have more or less seemed to support the project during 2006, none of these scientists (Dr Barakat, Dr Ibrahim Aly, Dr Dario Andretta...) has ever published a report, or even the slightest written opinion, on their visit in Visoko, and the single document published as "international validation" by the Foundation is this marvellous propaganda poster:

Vérification internationale

International validation - Source

Apparently in 2007 Mr. Osmanagic’s Foundation is continuing to invite foreign scientists in Visoko to study the "pyramids", but it seems that it is now a very different kind of "scientists" than the previous ones, who were actually geologists or archaeologists. A news from the 30th of April (en) on the Foundation web site mentions the visit of "Doctor Harry Oldfield from Great Britain and Doctor Karin Tag from Germany".

Let’s begin with the "Doctor Karin Tag", of which the Foundation gives only the name, but who is presented as "archaeologist and geologist" by the local medias (bs) and the pro-pyramid forums (en). No use to look for an academic reference or publication, you won’t find one. But Karin Tag is a medium, member (and maybe founder, at least she owns the domain name) of a "Seraphim Institute" (de) located in Germany, an Institute devoted to the establishment of world peace by the way of meditation, prayer and "energetic transfers" using a "crystal skull" (en) of which Karin Tag is also the guardian. This crystal skull, named "Corazon de Luz", of which we are told that it is linked with Atlantis, Karin Tag is taking it all over the world in "magic places" that she "activates" this way. Among these magic places are, beside the classical Karnak temple and Cheops pyramid, Notre Dame, the Eiffel Tower and Euro-Disney... Can one suppose that the skull has just made a little trip to one of the Bosnian "pyramids"? [1]

What about the English "Doctor Harry Oldfield"? He is presented on the Foundation web site (en) as "biologist, Honorary Doctor of Sciences, visiting professor at Grenada Unversity’s School of Medicine, and member of the Royal Society of Microscopic Research in Oxford". These two last titles are actually mentioned in the brochure (en) on Dr Oldfield’s web site (en) ("Fellow of the Royal Microscopical Society, Oxford, and Visiting Professor, Department of Medicine, Grenada University"); one can notice however that there is no mention of a "Harry Oldfield" on the Royal Microscopical Society (en) website (there actually is a Dr Oldfield, but he is called "Ron" or "Ronald") [2], nor on St. George University website (en) in Grenada. It is quite amusing that the Foundation text "forgot" to give Mr. Oldfield’s other precise titles, maybe because they do not look sufficiently "serious" or scientific; Mr. Oldfield is in fact, according to his own brochure, a "homeopathic physician" who received in 2000 a "Honorary Doctorate from the World Peace Centre in Pune (en), India", and a "Professor Honoris Causa in the Department of Alternative Medicine, Zoroastrian College, Mumbai (en), India": these two institutions are quite respectable, but they are more oriented toward the spiritual development than toward science, and it is maybe a little bit excessive to present Mr. Oldfield as a "Doctor in sciences"...

As was the case for Karin Tag, no use to look for traces of Dr Oldfield’s papers in scientific publications: there are none [3]. Yet Mr. Oldfield is a great inventor: he invented an "electro-crystal therapy" (en) used to "balance the human energy field", stimulating its "chakras and meridians" by the way of an "electro-magnetic generator" coupled with crystals; as well as an "electro-scanning method" (en) and an "electro-transplant therapy" (en). His most recent invention is the one he used on the Bosnian "pyramids", the "PIP" (en) or "Polycontrast Interference Photography", that allows, according to him, to photography the "interferences of the human energy field with photons". That is all Dr Oldfield will say about the scientific principles of his invention; if you want to know more, you can maybe try to buy the "PIP Reality" software (en), at the price of 3466.25 £...

As I have no intent to buy this software, nor to pay for the necessary "training" in order to learn how to interpret the pictures, I will not say anything more on this extraordinary technology which allowed Mr. Oldfield, according to this article in the magazine Nexus (en), to study ghosts and supernatural entities [4]. All that can be said is that his software produces nice pictures, that the Foundation has immediately published (en) on the website, pictures that show, according to Mr. Oldfield, the presence of "anomalies": vertical and "pulsating" energetic fields, which Mr. Osmanagic interprets as proof that the "pyramids" are "giant energy accumulators", "generators of electro-magnetic energy" (bs)...

Well, we are still very far from the claimed "scientific validation": doctors in "spiritual sciences", chakras, crystal skulls, mysterious "photonic electro-magnetic phenomena", secret and revolutionnary technology that has never been submitted to scientific evaluation... This being said, one cannot deny that there is a certain kind of logic in the "pseudo-scientific" validation of a "pseudo-archaeological" project!
