Pyramid…. When someone hears that word, it is likely that an image of the Great Pyramid of Giza comes to mind. This is the classic design that has become ubiquitous in our modern society. However, when it comes to this type of structure, there are many different varieties found around our planet. For most of mainstream academia, the collection of all the pyramids around the world is nothing more than evidence of humankind’s division into separate cultures. But not all academics agree with this theory.
Geophysicist Robert Schoch believes that we can trace the many pyramid-building cultures back to an ultimate source: He has identified Sundaland as this potential source. Sundaland is a biogeographical region of Southeastern Asia corresponding to a larger landmass that was exposed throughout the last 2.6 million years during periods when sea levels were lower. He posits that this region was inundated by rising sea levels after the end of the last ice age and may have been connected to cometary activity in the skies observed by the inhabitants of Sundaland.
Schoch states: “…pyramids are symbolically connected with comets, and the Sundalanders may well have originated the ancient pyramid tradition, then carried it with them as they fled the rising waters. Those who went northwest contributed to the cultural mélange that gave rise first to the pyramid cultures of Sumeria, Egypt, and Mesopotamia and later to those in India, Southeast Asia, and China. Sundalanders heading east may have gotten as far as Peru…
…Such ideas remain unpopular, in part because they smack of extreme “diffusionism” (a dirty word to many scholars) and undercut the Old World-New World division on which much of the academic orthodoxy is based.”
