I am of Sardinian parents and visited Sardinia quite a number of times. I visited many archaeological sites. In one of my trips, I spotted this 'mountain/ hill'.....although I did not have time to investigate it. It's come up in this video at 1:13. Can you tell me where or what area this is?. That mountain looks as if there is something else under all the vegetation, it just seems too defined for a mountain?.
simplest explanation would be, I guess, these are defensive structures - stone bases of old tower like "castles" - edit: or it could be something like a refrigirator for food storage, last thing that comes to my mind are the medieval "rotundas" - Rotunda were the first stone buildings build around central europe - they were seats of religious power with colorful paintings and stuff inside - guarded against thiefs.
As a Sardinian, I must compliment you on this three-part journey of my land's mysterious treasures! Instructional, sensitive and wisely open to the theories of those who want to build one. Bravo!
Mr tarsier first study what is goepolymer, and then try to explain to the people who build those walls,, the B walks are geopolymer, ir roman concrete, that the romana never invented, because geopolymer exists also in the pyramids,, and the pelasgians according to historians were greek yes?

It was the see-people and they came from the north of Europe. So very warlike. We have artifacts from every mediterranean bronze town in Sweden. Swords from Ugarit and you name it.
This is incredible. Much of it is identical to Peru, but much more weathered because of the inferior stone. It all points to a pre-ice-age global culture that we know almost nothing about. What can you find in Spain and southern France?
None of these have hardly ever been tombs originally. What the reuse later on was, is totally irrelevant. The precis cut stones are of great interests, the irregular boulders are of zero interest.
Yeah, in the Stone Riddles channel you have the same documentary devided into short episodes, for the sake of the yt algorithm, but it's the same doc. Cheers
Thank you so much for your documentary. This is the first time I have met with a view of this complexity and scientific approach in such important matter as polygonal megaliths are. What a astonishing piece of work. Thank you.
First of all, I want to comment on your possible location of Atlantis in Sardinia: I'm personally also developing a speculation that Sardinia could have something to do with Atlantis, but as I believe that Atlantis was in the Atlantic ocean (Azores), my version comes from Plato saying that the Atlantis ruled parts of Mediterranean, like Portugal, Spain and today's Morocco and eastwards along the African coast, so in my opinion Sardinia would be an important Atlantean colony, and basically the frontier against the eastern Mediterranean nations. That would explain why they had that many defensive structures. The figures are unlike anything I had seen ever so far in my life. Right now, when we are on the verge of rediscovering the pre-Younger Dryas ancient civilization and their technologies (see Malcolm Bendall and others), one cannot not notice that the main figure holds something that resembles sometimes the two-pronged pitchfork, sometimes three-pronged one, which seems to had been an important feature of Atlantis (three extremely tall pointy mountains that could have given rise to the Poseidon myths), and also sometimes clearly holding what we call "vajra" from the Indian mythology. This all is worthy of more research.
40:13 of all the strange godlike statuettes I thought wow, this is a first one of an ordinary man! But what does it have above his head? Aren't these the two vortices or sort of an aerial? Crazy to note, but this is also one of these rediscovered ancient technologies. This looks like the soldier of the other side, equipped with some kind of arm, coil on his head, also a question is what does he stand on, if it means some sort of an insulation under his feet, or if the statuette is just attached to something below his feet.
37:07 Here you can see the hunter brings an animal that is no longer exists. Seems like something with such clear stripes is recognizable to people of the time, but for us, the only close creature would be the Australian Thylacine (Tasmanian tiger) which is impossible. Which gave me an idea - what if we could date a bronze statuette by the fact that it clearly shows an animal which went extinct by the Younger Dryas cataclysm??? Maybe not this one, but there could be more!
25:15 Here you can clearly see that the stones are not only in horizontal line, but also in two rows 60° offset (there is a clear V pattern). For this, they had to ensure the boulders were about the same size, yet those in higher level were ever slightly smaller, which by itself helped to narrow the tower towards the top.
22:01 Here is one of the places where the boulders look in disarray, as of they were placed haphazardly - yet you can clearly see that they are arranged in two rows 60° offset (there is a clear V letter pattern). So there are actually two spirals going up, each opposing the other. Which is also an important symbology, it is no accident!
I wonder if the dating of organic material found in between the various boulders was done and what is the conclusion. The towers remind the tower of Jericho. There are however many similar looking towers (I remember the French La Roch-sur-Foron which is a town symbol but is not much older than 700 years I believe).
