The ancient pyramids of Antarctica are one of the most controversial issues among researchers. Some attribute the man-made pyramids of Antarctica to the realm of mythology and legend, seeing them as natural formations of rocky formations.
Pyramids of Antarctica in the distant past / thin view /
But if you look at the history of the frozen earth in more detail, it turns out that millions of years ago, the southern continent was not covered with snow and layers of ice. It was a vast world of greenery and blossoming life. Therefore, it is quite acceptable to conclude that once a person was active in the now frozen to the ground earth.
Vanessa Clare Bowman of the British Antarctic Survey (Cambridge) once said: Looking back a hundred million years, we will see Antarctica covered in lush rainforests similar to those that exist in New Zealand today.
Antarctica has been presented to us as one of the most mysterious continents on the planet for hundreds of years. The ice continent is the center of numerous ideas, because many researchers rightly believe that amazing artifacts of ancient history are buried in ice here.
Assuming the theory that Antarctica was a flourishing territory, now, among the formidable grandeur of the ice, many artifacts about the past of this land, and possibly traces of the civilization of that time, are probably stored. Approximately 170 million years have passed since the ice desert formed a single part of the Gondwana supercontinent. Approximately 45 million years have passed since the "warm" life of Antarctica stopped. Right in the midst of life, the mortal enemy of all living things burst here - a fierce cold.
Past History of Antarctica.
In the past history of Antarctica, the continent was much farther north, so it enjoyed a gracious tropical climate. What we see now, where ice and frost reign, at one time flaunted lush green forests inhabited by a variety of ancient life forms.
Jane Francis of the University of Leeds once said on the BBC: “I am still stunned by the idea of blooming Antarctica in the deep past. We take it for granted that Antarctica has always been a frozen wasteland. However, ice caps are only relatively recent in the geological history of the continent.
So what happens? If Antarctica was once an enchanting area of blooming jungle, then there is a chance that intelligent life could comfortably settle there?Alas, this is not quite something that we can know for sure. It is extremely difficult to explore Antarctica, as expeditions through ice and frost are very dangerous and usually very expensive. Even today, with modern technologies and seemingly advanced equipment, a person on the ice continent is just a fragile creature.
Exploration of Antarctica.
As is well known, experts have found pollen in samples taken from Antarctica. This means that at some point in history, the temperature there was indeed around 20 degrees Celsius.
In 2012, experts from the Nevada Desert Research Institute discovered 32 species of bacteria from an East Antarctica lake. It is obvious to us that in the distant past, the climate of Antarctica was completely different, the continent could theoretically support life.
Thus, the idea of the pyramids of Antarctica no longer looks absurd. This led many researchers to the theory that just as there were ancient civilizations in Asia, Europe or Africa, similar civilizations settled in Antarctica. It was they who could build wonderful structures equal in importance to the Egyptian or other pyramids of the world. And it's not an incredible story!
Man-made or natural formations?
Many point out that if the pyramids were built by man, then this could change our knowledge of human history in a fundamental way. However, there are other explanations that can shed light on the mysterious "structures" of the territory frozen for millions of years.
The geology of the Earth is a fascinating story, but in fact, there are many natural formations that can be misinterpreted as man-made objects. All that we regard as ancient pyramids are just rocky mountain peaks, scientists explain.
But no less true is the fact that for millions of years the continent had ideal conditions for the development of civilization. And if there were conditions, then a certain civilization could appear on a vast area and develop. So, in the pyramids we see real signs of the existence of an unknown culture of ancient times.
While some believe that Antarctica has become a haven for many secret secrets even of the Nazis, skeptics claim that what many see as pyramids are in reality just natural formations.Interestingly, according to climatology experts, the current global warming has “warmed up” the peninsula by an alarming 2.8 degrees Celsius. This is somewhat higher than what happens in any other corner of the planet. If the trend continues at the same pace, then it is very likely that someday we will see how the ice will melt and ancient lands will be opened to scientists.
As we now understand, Antarctica was not always severely cold, dry and "unfriendly" to humans as it is today. Looking back at the warm past of this land and wondering if an ancient civilization could have lived here? Our answer is simple - Yes!
Interest in Antarctica did not arise today. If we look back a couple of decades, we find out how much interest the cold lands represented for the Nazis. The Germans literally raved about the ancient continent and its past life.
Knowledgeable people say that the Nazis built a large base in Antarctica called "Station 211". the conspiracy theory assures that the secret base "Station 211" is a real reality, hidden somewhere inside the ice-free Muhlig-Hofmann mountain range, the so-called "Neuschwabenland", Queen Maud Land. According to conspiracy theories, the Nazis chose areas with green vegetation to build the base, which was provided by the heat of geothermal sources.
A stunning phrase about the development of Antarctica by the Nazis was once uttered by Admiral Karl Dönitz: "The German submarine fleet is proud to have built an impregnable fortress for the Fuhrer in another part of the world." - What do you think, what meaning did the admiral put into this phrase? After all, he could not talk about a simple bunker ...
So what do you think of Antarctica now? Is it possible that in the distant past, when Antarctica still had a tropical climate, an unknown civilization was active on the continent?
Maybe among the snow and ice lie not only the most ancient pyramids, at least 170 million years old, but also the greatest mystery of the appearance of man on Earth?
* Alas, to date, the pyramids of ancient civilizations have not been found on the southernmost continent of the Earth. Although in Internet publications there are reports from time to time about the discovery of three ancient pyramids in Antarctica, allegedly in shape extremely reminiscent of the Egyptian pyramids.
On the White Continent, scientists made an unexpected discovery. Here they found mountains that are very similar to the pyramids. The first find was found in close proximity to the coast, and the other two - sixteen kilometers from the coastline, planet-today.ru reports.
Experts believe that ancient pyramids have been found in Antarctica. According to the authors of the find, these structures could not have been created by nature, a human trace is clearly visible here.
Scientists from the US and Europe were exploring the vast ice sheet of the highest continent on our planet, because of which they discovered three ancient pyramids that do not belong to natural monuments.
Some scientists are sure that in the past the places of the southern continent were densely covered with forests, and many animals and other creatures lived there. An ancient civilization of people could also live in these places.
In order to bring evidence with them, experts took pictures of the unique pyramids. In the near future, scientists plan to return and continue studying the find.
As Strana reported, near ancient city the Quilcapampa Indians in Peru, giant drawings on the ground.
Previously, . This was the last passage from the oldest manuscript, which contains chapters from the Old Testament book of Leviticus.
The first news about man-made pyramids in Antarctica appeared on the Internet in mid-June 2013. The main evidence was a slideshow of several photographs and small explanatory texts.
It was reported that eight researchers from universities in the US and Europe made the incredible discovery, their identities were not disclosed. Such secrecy was explained by the fact that they allegedly planned to send a scientific expedition to the pyramids to study the mysterious objects in detail. Judging by the latest news, which completely repeats the information of two years ago, the campaign did not take place.
The video shows the logo of a group of scientists from the UK Alien Disclosure Group (ADG), which reveals secret materials about UFOs and extraterrestrial technologies. The author of the sensation is one of the members of the community, Stephen Hannard. He has been caught many times on fake UFO evidence.
It turned out that the pyramids are two angles of one mountain of the highest ridge of Antarctica called Vinson. The array is located in Antarctica. Hannard took the 2010 photos from a blog of climbers climbing near the unusual peak.

Anyone can view the mountain from above with the help of Google Maps.
As well as the entire mountain range (in the red circle - the same mountain).
The third picture with the pyramid near the shore, most likely a photomontage. The mountain is located on an ice shelf, and it flows from the coast into the sea: any building simply could not survive on the edge of such an ice sheet.
What scientists say
If this was not created by a person, the question arises, because of what such bizarre forms are formed. Geologist Yuri Kozlov and geomorphologist Konstantin Lovyagin commented on the RT TV channel.
“Usually, all the bizarre rock shapes are formed due to the fact that they are composed of different minerals of different densities. Accordingly, in the process of weathering, when natural factors (rain, snow, wind) destroy the rock, minerals with a lower density are first used up, while solid ones remain and take on various interesting shapes, in which a person then tries to find something familiar, ”explained RT Kozlov.
According to Lovyagin, “perhaps this is the most common result of the denudation process, that is, the remnants have a natural shape close to pyramidal. This is far from a unique phenomenon that can be found in different parts of the Earth. It is due to the mineralogical composition of the rock. Different rocks in the process of weathering take on different shapes. It could be basalt or a granite intrusion that retains such chiseled shapes due to the slowing down of weathering processes at low temperatures.”
Information that man-made pyramids were discovered in Antarctica appeared on the Internet in mid-June. With reference to the Scienceray.com website, it was reported that a group of researchers discovered three pyramids, one of which is located on the very coast of the icy continent, and the other two are in depth, at a distance of about sixteen kilometers from the coast. More detailed information about the pyramids was not provided.
The main source of information was a short video showing several photographs accompanied by short text explanations. It was also mentioned that preparations are currently underway for an expedition that will go to explore the pyramids. This explains why most of the information remains hidden.
Here are some examples of sources and discussions on this topic:
Let's still figure out whether these are really ancient objects or something else.

As stated in Antarctica, pyramids were discovered - exactly like the great Egyptian ones. And there are also three of them, as on the Giza plateau. Only they are located not so close to each other: two of them are 16 km from the coast, and the third is on the coast itself. And they look very handmade.
But it's incredible. After all, Antarctica was a green continent tens of millions of years ago. Homo sapiens didn't even exist back then. Only dinosaurs lived there at that time. But the lizards did not build these giant structures. Then, it turns out, either aliens, or some ancient civilization about which we know nothing? In order to reveal the secret, an expedition is allegedly being equipped there now.
But who made such a shocking discovery that could lead us to rethink and rewrite the entire history of the Earth? In a post with a link to Scienceray.com. refers to a team of eight researchers from the US and Europe. But neither the names of the universities where the scientists work nor their names are given. There are no pictures of the pyramids. Only one photo and a short video leaked to the Web.
But one thread leading to the authors of the sensation was found. Logo on video ADG (UK). As it turned out, this is a group of scientists from the UK called A lien Disclosure Group, which works like Wikileaks - an international network project that publishes documents revealing the secrets of politicians. The ADG, on the other hand, releases secret protocols on UFOs and extraterrestrial technology. On their website alien-disclosure-group.com, scientists claim that they have their own sources in more than 500 governments, military and intelligence agencies. Apparently, information about the Antarctic pyramids leaked from one such structure? Or maybe it's a photoshop and a fake, as many people convince in their blogs and on the forum. And what do you think?

BY THE WAY
It is known that the Nazis of the Third Reich were very interested in Antarctica. And according to one of the legends, in the late 1930s they built their bases there. They say they were looking for something left either from aliens, or from an ancient highly developed civilization that once existed there. Maybe even Atlantis. And in the mines, it was as if they were hiding “flying saucers”.
However, if the pyramids turned out to be man-made, this would require a significant revision of existing ideas about the ancient history of the Earth. The green continent of Antarctica was several tens of millions of years ago, when people did not yet exist. Consequently, either people belonging to a hitherto unknown ancient race, or representatives of extraterrestrial intelligence could create such large-scale structures.
Soon it was possible to establish that the video was created by one of the members of the British association Alien Disclosure Group. This is a group of scientists who see as their main task the discovery and publication of information about UFOs classified by the governments of different countries. The organizers of the group say that they have many sources in various government structures.

The author of the video was Stephen Hannard (Stephen Hannard), a UFO researcher from the already mentioned Alien Disclosure Group UK. He had previously been caught making fake UFO sightings. The photo of the “pyramids” in Antarctica also turned out to be a fake. This was stated with confidence by a specialist in the study of anomalous phenomena, Mikhail Gershtein. Two photographs, which were presented as pictures of pyramids located in the depths of the mainland, actually capture one of the mountains of the large Vinson massif. It's just an oddly shaped mountain in the Vinson Massif, Antarctica's highest mountain range, taken from two different angles. The pictures were stolen by a forger from the blog of climbers who conquered these mountains in 2010.

The pictures were taken by climbers on a 2010 climb and taken from their blog by Steven Hannard.
The third shot, which shows the pyramid right next to the shore, is the product of a photomontage. Mikhail Gershtein says that the pyramid simply could not be preserved on the edge of the ice sheet - this contradicts the known laws of ice movement. The ice here is in constant motion, and any structure built in this area would soon be swallowed up by the ocean.
Steven Hannard of the Alien Disclosure Group has already been caught posting fake videos of aliens and UFOs. Apparently, the exposure did not calm him down.
Here are some more recent revelations that we discussed with you: or here, but they say The original article is on the website InfoGlaz.rf Link to the article from which this copy is made -The other day, the news about the pyramids spread in the Internet media ancient civilization found in Antarctica. In reality, everything is somewhat not so exciting - a photograph of an ordinary mountain six years ago was given out as a mystical building.
The story was told by more than 300 media
Over the past 24 hours, more than 300 Russian-language media have talked about the pyramids of an ancient civilization. “Scientists have discovered 3 pyramids that are definitely not the result of natural disasters, as they were built with maximum precision,- writes the Belarusian state news agency BELTA. — Experts are confident that after a detailed study of these structures, they will be able to determine what kind of civilization lived in that territory in ancient times.”
News about the pyramids in Antarctica appear on the Web is not the first time. Previously, these same pyramids were "found" in September 2016, before that - in 2013.
This is not science, but "fairy tales" of ufologists
The discovery of the pyramids is not the result of scientific research. News about this spread ufologists. The very first video about the pyramids in Antarctica appeared on the Alien Disclosure Group's YouTube channel. This time, the outbreak of news spawned publication on the Alltime Conspiracies Facebook page.
Most likely, this pyramid is just a mountain of the Ellsworth system. Her photographs were published in 2010 by climbers who climbed near the unusual peak. You can see this peak on Google Maps. You can see that the pyramid is not in the desert - it is one of the peaks of the ridge.
Here's what the scientists say
Recently, several geologists have reported that the pyramidal shape of the summit is the result of natural processes.
“Pyramidal structures are located in the Ellsworth mountain range. Its length is more than 400 kilometers, so it is not surprising that the mountain peaks are visible from under the ice,- says the doctor Mitch Darcy(Mitch Darcy), geologist at the German Research Center for Geosciences in Potsdam. — The peaks are obviously made of stones. It is a coincidence that this particular peak has such a shape.”
“Perhaps this is the most common result of the denudation process, that is, the remnants have a natural shape close to pyramidal,- explained the Russian geomorphologist Konstantin Lovyagin. — This is far from a unique phenomenon that can be found in different parts of the Earth. It is due to the mineralogical composition of the rock. Different rocks in the process of weathering take on different shapes. It could be basalt or a granite intrusion that retains such chiseled shapes due to the slowing down of weathering processes at low temperatures.”
Pyramids are not only in Antarctica
There are natural pyramids in other parts of the Earth. This is what Bulandstindur looks like in Iceland.
