"First shift" volunteer certif... |
There has been a flurry of activity at the Bosnian Pyramids this summer: the summer of 2013.
So far, there have been people volunteering, cleaning and securing additional meters of the prehistoric tunnel network. Volunteers have also been exposing more of the ancient concrete on the surface of the pyramids, connecting two archaeological trenches at the Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun. Time was spent clearing access paths to the Pyramid of the Sun as well as the Pyramid of the Moon’s archaeological sites. (July 14th, 2013)

Concrete blocks found undernea... |
Underneath the layers of vegetation covering the hills in Visoko, there are layers of concrete making up what is known as the Bosnian Valley of the Pyramids.
One of the Bosnian Pyramids, the Pyramid of the Sun, is approximately one third taller than the ancient Egyptian Great Pyramid. The Pyramid of the Sun is constructed of five thick layers of concrete (sandstone slabs, almost one meter thick for each layer), with each layer containing a fifteen centimeter layer of clay in between. Underneath the concrete and clay, the inner pyramid consists of sandstone blocks. (May 9th, 2013)

Semir Osmanagic at the Tumulus... |
In the Valley of the Bosnian Pyramids in the town of Visoko, closest to the Pyramid of the Moon, a Tumulus has been found in the village of Vratnica.
A tumulus is a mound of earth, usually placed over a prehistoric tomb. The Tumulus of Vratnica is a 32 meter high manmade hill, discovered in 2008. An exposed clay-and-concrete megalithic block was found, which was discolored due to its contact with the elements. Soon after this discovery, more blocks were found, which lead to what appeared to be a huge megalithic terrace and possibly a gateway to the Bosnian Pyramids.

Over the past three years, the “Archaeological Park: Pyramid of the Sun: Foundation” has organized “International Summer Camps for Volunteers.” These camps have been a big success, having over 1,200 volunteers from 52 countries and six different continents participate. Participants have different backgrounds, from archaeology and science, to cultural heritage, to archaeological tourism. (March 18th, 2013)

The International Summer Camp for Volunteers, Bosnian Pyramids 2012, is done for the season. One of the greatest findings of 2012 came in the month of June, during the first volunteer shift: the team led by Italian archaeologists, Dr. Riccardo Brett and Niccolo Bisconti, discovered a fossilized leaf on top of one of the concrete blocks covering the Pyramid of the Sun.

Polycontrast Interference Photography, also known as PIP, is an energy field video imaging system. This system was developed by Harry Oldfield, a respected biologist and an inventor from the UK. PIP provides a real time, moving image of the energy field of any object, including the human body.
Harry Oldfield visited Visoko, Bosnia & Herzegovina in 2008 and recorded images of the Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun. He compared his recordings to images of natural hill formations of a similar size and shape. (August 23rd, 2012)

When it comes to pyramids around the world, geometric alignment is something they all have in common.
It is no different in the Bosnian Valley of the Pyramids. (August 6th, 2012)

There is a network of underground tunnels under the pyramidal complex in Visoko at a depth of between 5 - 25 meters. On average, the height of the tunnels are 3 meters and the width of the tunnels are 2.5 meters. It is a labyrinth made of passages and chambers spreading across several kilometers. (August 2nd, 2012)
