VISOKO, October 26 (FENA) – Archeological activities have begun on the hill of Visocica near Visoko, which holds the remains of the medieval royal town of Visoki, and the aim is to confirm the existence of the first European pyramid.
Hill Visocica hides the first European pyramid of monumental proportions, claims author of the book “Bosnian pyramid of the Sun” Semir Osmanagic, which was promoted yesterday in Sarajevo.
Osmanagic on Wednesday told Fena that this facility has an accession plateau wide 40 and long 200 meters built of stone plates. The access plateau is in the form of stairs leading to the pyramid.
The basis for the claim that Visocica holds a most valuable archeological monument is seen in a series of construction anomalies determined during research conducted in August. These anomalies indicate that the hill was not created naturally, but by man.
Apart from the “pyramid of the Sun”, Osmanagic claims that a smaller pyramid, which he calls “pyramid of the Moon” is located in the area opposite to Visocica, which again confirms that pyramids were always built in pairs.
“We have already dug out one stair of the pyramid and we will continue working on the second stair”, says Osmanagic.
Osmanagic was unable to answer when the pyramid would see the light of day, adding that digging out of the wider sections of pyramid only would depend on additional funds....

Until 2000 the Austrian contingent of the IFOR was stationed exactly there - in Visoko...
