Pyramids of Yonaguni is another mysterious place in the world. They were discovered near the so-named Japanese island. Its area is about 28 square kilometers, also it has a resident number of population – about 2 000 people. For years this small island was attractive for divers, and fans of beach vacation. In 1980s the group of divers have discovered the complex of drowned rock terraces.
Near them have placed the stone acute-angled pyramids. Some specialists suppose that saved fragments belong to the ancient city, which went under the water. However, we still don’t know the original aim of this construction. Even more, we don’t know who build it. The stone terraces and pyramids are about several thousand years old. They adore with their geometric shapes accuracy and firm structure. No one natural disaster could destroy them.
It is quite hard to explain and understand how this ancient city has appeared. Only that comes to mind is the extraterrestrial intelligence. There is no doubt that the stone structures were made artificially. We can find some traces of the retreatment. Within the years the researchers determine the approximate age of the pyramids – 5 000 years. They went under the water about 2 000 years ago during the major earthquake. Nowadays the active research works still adore specialists. There were found some parts of the sculptures of enormous sizes near the ancient city.
