Mount Sadahurip
Mount Sadahurip submitted by Andy B : Mount Sadahurip pyramid shaped hill. You can see conical shapes in the background of the image which are natural cinder cones. Perhaps the structure is a volcanic cinder cone that has been transformed into a pyramidal structure by making the sides into triangular surfaces. From a suggestion by SunkenCiv Site in Indonesia (Vote or comment on this photo)
Pyramid shaped hill near Cicapar Sand Village, Garut, West Java. Possible man made pyramid structure. Mount Sadahurip, dubbed the "Garut Pyramid," has been undergoing verification tests by the Ancient Catastrophic Disaster Team to see if the mount is indeed a man-made (or partially man-made) structure.

The structure is larger than the Great Pyramid of Giza and could be far older.

By using geo-electric instruments, surveyors are measuring the resistance of the geological layers, while seeking additional funding to begin excavations. An initial survey determined that the structure is unlikely to be of natural formation.

A 3D contour plot of topographical digital data supports the following hypothesis, "There exists an anomaly formation made of sinder cone located on a horizontal unconformity intrusion base." Carbon-14 dating shows that the age of the ancient top soil dates back to at least 6000 BC, while the age of the hard soil in the lower strat is from 7500 BC.
