The 25,000-year pyramid that got retracted.

Why it matters

A real megalithic terraced site — but the claim it hides a buried 25,000-year pyramid was retracted in 2024. We keep it on the map, honestly labelled, as the cautionary tale.

What mainstream says

Site real; the deep-pyramid inference was formally retracted. Soil dates with no artifacts do not date a building.

Graded Speculation · S on the Ancient Code honesty scale (A grounded · C contested · S speculation · U unidentified). It belongs to the The forbidden line of evidence.
