<span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;">Since many years already in the popular scientific community and in publications there are many announcements and contentions of gigantic pyramids in China. The puzzle around the look-up seems final after new discoveries. With the help of Google Earth, the objects are to be seen impressively. It can not be maintained longer, there might be no pyramids in China.!They have four sides and they are even square like the pyramids in <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/egypt" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with egypt">Egypt</a> and in <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/mexico" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Mexico">Mexico</a>. Its <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/size" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with size">size</a> can quite be matched with those of the Pharaons and of the Inca rulers.</span></span></p>
<p>Already in 1912 of the two travel agents Fred Meyer Schroder and Oscar Maman reported of a tremendous building that they had seen in China.<em>&#8220;It was <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/more" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with More">more</a> eerie than if we had found them in the wilderness. Here they had been under the nose of the <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/world" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with world">world</a>, but unknown to the western countries&#8230; The big <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/pyramid" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pyramid">pyramid</a> is about 1,000 feet high (other descriptions estimate 1,000 to 1,200 feet high) and roughly 1,500 feet at the base, which makes it twice as large as any <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/pyramid" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pyramid">pyramid</a> in Egypt. The four faces of the structure are oriented with the compass points,&#8221;</em> the two travellers reported.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"><a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/during" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with during">During</a> the second world war, the pilot of the American Air Force, James Gaussman, with his co-pilot, flow &#8211; through a technical defect at his machine -, for several <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/times" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with times">times</a> over a specific territory in China. What he later reported sounds completely unbelievable: <em>&#8220;I banked to avoid a mountain and we came out over a level valley. Directly below was a gigantic white pyramid. It looked like something out of a fairy tale. It was encased in shimmering white. This could have been metal, or some sort of stone. It was pure white on all sides. The remarkable thing was the capstone, a huge piece of jewel-like material that could have been crystal. There was no way we could have landed, although we wanted to. We were struck by the immensity of the thing&#8221;</em>, the pilots reported.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;">On March 28, 1947 the &#8220;New York Times&#8221; reported about that discovery. In an interview with the newspaper, the former far east director of the Transworld Airlines, Maurice Sheahan, says he has seen 40 miles southwest of Xian a gigantic pyramid.<em>&#8220;I was impressed by its perfect pyramidal form and its great size,&#8221;</em> says Sheahan. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"> Later, on March 30, 1947 the &#8220;New York Sunday Times&#8221; take over the report and published at the first the photo, which is actually made in 1945 by Gaussmann, and that was soon forgotten.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"><img src="http://en.tarikhema.ir/images/2011/03/whitepyramid1947.jpg" border="0" alt="whitepyramid1947 Pyramids in China   Tarikhema.ir" hspace="5" vspace="5" width="350" height="281" title="Pyramids in China | Tarikhema.ir" /></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"> The photo of the &#8220;white pyramide&#8221; of 1947.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"> In 1978 the New Zealand researcher Bruce L. Cathie bothered itself of a clarification</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;">of the puzzle. According to some correspondence with the <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/chinese" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with chinese">Chinese</a> embassy and the US air force he kept up the photo of 1947. He published the picture later in the first edition of his book &#8220;The Bridge to Infinity&#8221; of 1983. According to the photograph and the reports, the New Zealand researcher estimate that the pyramid must have at their basis a length of 450 meters (1500 feet) and a height of about 300 meters (1000 feet). It is a pyramid with four flat trapezoid shaped sides, a square plateau on the top and a square base, like the pyramids in Egypt and in Mexico. Such pyramids were up to now unknown to the experts in the western world and its existence was always denied: &#8220;There are no pyramids in China! Only pagodas &#8211; <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/temple" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Temple">temple</a> liked, peaked buildings&#8221;, so the opinion of the world experts. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"> I came to the &#8220;white pyramid&#8221; when I already read reports in specialized books before and then I saw the appropriate photograph in <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/the-book" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with The Book">the book</a> &#8220;The Face on Mars&#8221; of 1989 <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/from" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with from">from</a> the two Australian authors Brian Crowley and James J. Hurtak. Brian Crowley then sent a copy of the <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/image" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with image">image</a> in his book to me and then I passed it to Peter Krassa &#8211; a Austrian book author and China researcher. Later I published it in my German book &#8220;Das Marsgesicht&#8221; (The Face on Mars) of 1995. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"> I have left indeed Peter Krassa the photograph, but I wanted to however make and therefore prove attentive, that there are in fact pyramids in China. At the German edition &#8220;Ancient Skies&#8221;, the journal of the &#8220;Ancient Astronaut Society&#8221;, no. 6, 1991, I published a short report. One did not want to however publish the photograph of 1947. Gene Phillips, the founders of the mentioned society, has refused a report from me in the American journal of the Society &#8211; with the reason, the photograph could be &#8220;something doctored&#8221;, somehow falsified. He considered the photograph for a forgery. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"> However, I was some extent amazed when I saw a German book in a bookshop in Hamburg, Germany &#8211; during a lecture trip &#8211; with the title &#8220;Die weisse Pyramide&#8221; (The white pyramid), written by Hartwig Hausdorf, he was until then completely unknown to me. The book appeared in 1994 and then I found out that Peter Krassa had made the photograph available to him &#8211; without my knowledge. However, Hartwig Hausdorf mentioned me in his book so the case is functional. Hartwig Hausdorf was very much strove anyway &#8211; and that was also my aim &#8211; for the thing and he has undertaken several China trips, around the report to go onto the basis. He found several pyramid mountains in China in fact and he has also published photographs from that. These were the first real evidence that there are pyramidal buildings in China exist. The &#8220;white pyramid&#8221; could constitute Hausdorf nonetheless not. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"> Bruce L. Cathie announces many details in its book &#8220;The bridge to Infinity&#8221; over pyramids in China and especially over the &#8220;white pyramid&#8221; &#8211; so too precise coordinate information. They should be had found north of the contemporary <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/city" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with City">city</a> Sian (Xi´an), by the foot of the river Wei-ho &#8211; exact at 34.26 degrees of northern width and 108.52 degrees of eastern length. This data were for me very helpful when I searched in September 2006, with &#8220;Google Earth&#8221; over China after the pyramids. This program was in the last years set up extended from Google into the Internet and one can recognize phantastic details of the Earth&#8217;s surface, by means of satellite consumption &#8211; as e.g. too the mysterious lines in the plain of Nazca. The solution is not in all fields optimally, nevertheless mostly quite well. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"> According to some trouble I then kept up after the coordinate information of Bruce L. Cathie two pyramids. As result, I found further, more than twenty and bigger pyramids. They are square earth-pillars, constructed by Chinese craftsmen a long time ago very obviously. The professional world has therefore improper. There are indeed pyramids in China! Google Earth confirmed that again. The biggest one in this area is on 34.23 degrees North and 108.42 degrees East. The opinions diverge via the age of the pyramids. Some speak of 2500 to 3500 years. The legendary &#8220;Emperor of the prehistoric time&#8221; should at that time have been there. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"> The pyramids are in the province Shaanxi, north of the city Sian (Xi´an). On the satellite photographs of Google Earth, no &#8220;white pyramid&#8221; is to be recognized. Under the coordinates 34.26 degrees of Nord and 108.52 degrees East, two pyramids are visible, but however they are not identical to the photo from 1947. The pyramid lying a little southwest, in my opinion, comes onto 34.22 Nord most of all and 108.41 East, north of the small city Hsien-yang into consideration. An arrangement shows similar factors as on the photograph from 1947: A square plateau, grazes (excavations) on the sidewalls, similar ones walkways (streets) and in the background, a small settlement. But that pyramid is definitely not the &#8220;white Pyramide&#8221;. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"> In some Internet pages (Chris Maier) and in the homepage of wikipedia, the Maoling mausoleum is compared with the &#8220;white pyramid&#8221;. And that is in actual fact correct. Already on former satellite images which were published in the homepage of earthquest.co.uk of November 2001, that is to be recognized. With Google Earth, this pyramid &#8211; although at present another with bad resolution &#8211; is it to be seen also. They lies west of the pyramids of Hsien-yang, close to the city Xianyang, on 30.20 degrees North and 108.34 degrees East.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana;"> The &#8220;white pyramid&#8221; needs not to be a tremendous mystic building. The pilots and the travel agents to see the Maoling mausoleum, with his size &#8211; according to the measurements via Google Earth &#8211; of about 222 to 217 meters on the ground and his height of about 46 meters, can quite have appeared below glistening sunlight glimmering and quite big. No other pyramid in this area is so big. Only the one on 34.23 North and 108.42 East, which has a size of 219 to 230 meters on the ground. The wellknown Shi Huang-ti Mausoleum, situated 50 kilometers East, has a size of 357 to 354 meters on the base and the whole complex has a size of 488 to 581 meters. But that grave mountain is actually a square mound and not a pyramid. Attainable is the area near Hsien-yang over the city Xi´an (Sian) obvious the airport that Hartwig Hausdorf with some traveling companions already used in 1994. They could for instance constitute seventeen pyramids within a radius of about three kilometers and they estimated its heights at sixty to seventy meters.</span></p>

It is reported to be <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/about" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with about">about</a> 300 meters high.</p>
<p>It is found in Tibet &#8211; located in the Qin Ling Shan mountains, about100 km southwest of the city of Xi&#8217;an,  in the People&#8217;s Republic of China.</p>
<p>Life Magazine had a <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/picture" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with picture">picture</a> of this Tibetan Pyramid taken in 1957.  The first  <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/picture" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with picture">picture</a> to be seen here was taken <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/from" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with from">from</a> a C-54 in world <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/war" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with war">war</a> II by a pilot who flew supplies  through the Himalaya Mountain terrain as a volunteer helping the <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/chinese" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with chinese">Chinese</a>.</p>
<p>Hartwig Hausdorf, a researcher in Germany, sent over  photographs from his collection, taken <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/during" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with during">during</a> his 1994 trip to the Forbidden Zone in The Shensi Province in China.</p>
<p>Estimates for an age are 4,500 years old.   Hausdorf mentions the diaries of two Australian traders who, in 1912, met an old Buddhist monk who told them these <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/pyramids" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with pyramids">pyramids</a> are mentioned in the 5,000 year old records of his monastery as being &#8220;very old.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hausdorf reports: There are over 100 pyramids, made of clay, that have become nearly stone hard over the centuries. Many are damaged by erosion or farming. One pyramid is as large as the Pyramid of the Sun of Teotihuacan in <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/mexico" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Mexico">Mexico</a> (which is as large as <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/the-great" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with the Great">the Great</a> Pyramid of Giza). Most are flat topped, some have small temples on top. There is a stone pyramid in Shandong, about 50 feet tall. Some incorporate the  golden proportion.</p>

<p>Pyramid Built 5000 years ago Found in Inner MongoliaJuly 7, 2001 &#8211; <a href="http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/200107/06/eng20010706_74356.shtml">People&#8217;s Daily</a></p>
<p>A three-story pyramid  dating 5000 years back has been discovered in north China&#8217;s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.</p>
<p>The pyramid, which looks like a trapezoidal hill from afar, is located on a hill one kilometer north of Sijiazi Town, Aohan County. The pyramid is about 30 meters long and 15 meters wide at its base.</p>
<p>This is considered the best-preserved pyramid built during the Hongshan Culture period that has been found so far, said Guo Dasun, an archaeologist in charge of the excavation.</p>
<p>Seven tombs and one altar were also found on the top of the pyramid. Archaeologists also discovered a number of <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/pottery" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with pottery">pottery</a> pieces with the asterisk character inscribed on the inner wall. The asterisk character is believed to be related to the understanding of ancient people on astrology.</p>
<p>Among the culture relics excavated from one of the seven tombs are a bone flute and a stone ring and a full- sized stone statue of Goddess unearthed from another tomb.</p>
<p>What astonished the archeologists is a one palm-sized stone genital found on the inner wall of a tomb with a small stone statue of Goddess below.</p>
<p>Guo Dasun said that most of these relics are found for the first time and will shed light on studying the origin of Chinese <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/civilization" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with civilization">civilization</a>.</p>

<p>The Burma Tibetian PyramidThe Burma Tibetian Pyramid is called &#8216;The Pyramid of Gathering&#8217;.</p>
<p>It is a bright white pyramid that is well preserved in the Buhtan Province.</p>
<p>The limestone is still preserved beyond imagination. It supposedly glows under light.</p>
<p>This pyramid was spotted by U.S. pilots in China  in WWll flying over the hump in Burma.</p>
<p>It is mentioned much by an Irish author Mona Rolf.</p>
<p>It same size as the <a href="http://www.2002china.net/china_columns/ancient_china/giza.shtml">Khufu Pyramid </a>in Egypt.</p>
<p>These images were taken by Hartwig Hausdorf, a researcher in Germany.  <img src="http://en.tarikhema.ir/images/2011/03/chinesepyr.jpg" alt="chinesepyr Chinese Pyramids   Tarikhema.ir"  title="Chinese Pyramids | Tarikhema.ir" /> <img src="http://en.tarikhema.ir/images/2011/03/chinesepyr2.jpg" alt="chinesepyr2 Chinese Pyramids   Tarikhema.ir"  title="Chinese Pyramids | Tarikhema.ir" /> <img src="http://en.tarikhema.ir/images/2011/03/chinesepyr3.jpg" alt="chinesepyr3 Chinese Pyramids   Tarikhema.ir"  title="Chinese Pyramids | Tarikhema.ir" /> <img src="http://en.tarikhema.ir/images/2011/03/chinesepyr4.jpg" alt="chinesepyr4 Chinese Pyramids   Tarikhema.ir"  title="Chinese Pyramids | Tarikhema.ir" /><strong> </strong></p>

<p>At a distance of 50 km northwest of Beijing stands an arc-shaped cluster of hills fronted by a small plain. Here is where 13 <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/emperors" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with emperors">emperors</a> of the <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/ming" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with ming">Ming</a> <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/dynasty" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Dynasty">dynasty</a> (1368-1644) were buried, and the area is known as the Ming Tombs.</p>
<p><img src="http://en.tarikhema.ir/images/2011/03/chinatombsmap.jpg" alt="chinatombsmap The Thirteen Tombs of the Ming Dynasty   Tarikhema.ir"  title="The Thirteen Tombs of the Ming Dynasty | Tarikhema.ir" />Construction of the tombs started in 1409 and ended with the fall of                       the Ming Dynasty in 1644. In over 200 years tombs were built over an                       area of 40 square kilometres, which is surrounded by walls totalling                       40 kilometres. Each tomb is located at the foot of a separate hill and                       is linked with the other tombs by a road called the Sacred Way. The                       stone archway at the <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/southern" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with southern">southern</a> end of the Sacred Way, built in 1540,                       is 14 metres high and 19 metres wide, and is decorated with designs                       of clouds, waves and divine animals.</p>
<p>Beijing served as the national capital <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/during" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with during">during</a> the Yuan, Ming and <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/qing" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with qing">Qing</a> <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/dynasties" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with dynasties">dynasties</a>.             Unlike Ming and <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/qing" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with qing">Qing</a> rulers who all built massive tombs for themselves, Yuan rulers             left no similar burial grounds.</p>
<p>Beijing nomads came from             the Mongolian steppe. Mongols who established the Yuan Dynasty held the belief             that they had come from: earth. they adopted a simple funeral method: the dead             was placed inside a hollowed nanmu tree, which was then buried under grassland.             Growth of grass soon left no traces of the tombs.</p>
<p>During the Ming Dynasty established by Han <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/chinese" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with chinese">Chinese</a> coming from an             agricultural <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/society" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with society">society</a> in central China, <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/people" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with People">people</a> believed the existence of an             after-<a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/world" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with world">world</a>, where the dead &#8220;lived&#8221; a <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/life" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with life">life</a> similar to that of the living. Ming <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/emperor" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Emperor">emperor</a>,             therefore, has grand mausoleums built for themselves. Qing rulers did likewise.</p>
<p>The stone archway at the southern end of the Sacred Way, built in 1540, is 14 metres high and 19 metres wide, and is decorated with designs of clouds, waves and divine animals. Well-proportioned and finely carved, the archway is one of the best preserved specimens of its kind in the Ming Dynasty. It is also the largest ancient stone archway in China.</p>
<p>The Stele Pavilion, not far from <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/the-great" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with the Great">the Great</a> <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/palace" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with palace">Palace</a>                                                              Gate, is actually a pavilion with a double-eaved                                                              roof. On the back of the stele is carved poetry                                                              written by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing                                                              Dynasty when he visited the Ming Tombs.</p>
<p>The Sacred Way inside the gate of the Ming Tomb                                                          is lined with 18 pairs of stone human figures and                                                          animals. These include four each of three types of                                                          officials: civil, military and meritorious officials,                                                          symbolizing those who assist the emperor in the                                                          administration of the state, plus four each of six                                                          types of animals: lion, griffin, camel, elephant,                                                          unicorn and horse.</p>

<p><span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Since many years already in the popular scientific community and in publications there are many announcements and contentions of gigantic pyramids in <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/china" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with china">China</a>. The puzzle around the look-up seems final after new discoveries. With the help of Google Earth, the objects are to be seen impressively. It can not be maintained longer, there might be no pyramids in <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/china" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with china">China</a>.!They have four sides and they are even square like the pyramids in <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/egypt" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with egypt">Egypt</a> and in Mexico. Its size can quite be matched with those of the Pharaons and of the Inca rulers.</p>
<p>Already in 1912 of the two travel agents Fred Meyer Schroder and Oscar Maman reported of a tremendous building that they had seen in China.<em>&#8220;It was <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/more" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with More">more</a> eerie than if we had found them in the wilderness. Here they had been under the nose of the world, but unknown to the western countries&#8230; The big pyramid is <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/about" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with about">about</a> 1,000 feet high (other descriptions estimate 1,000 to 1,200 feet high) and roughly 1,500 feet at the base, which makes it twice as large as any pyramid in Egypt. The four faces of the structure are oriented with the compass points,&#8221;</em> the two travellers reported. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/during" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with during">During</a> the second world war, the pilot of the American Air Force, James Gaussman, with his co-pilot, flow &#8211; through a technical defect at his machine -, for several times over a specific territory in China. What he later reported sounds completely unbelievable: <em>&#8220;I banked to avoid a mountain and we came out over a level valley. Directly below was a gigantic white pyramid. It looked like something out of a fairy tale. It was encased in shimmering white. This could have been metal, or some sort of stone. It was pure white on all sides. The remarkable thing was the capstone, a huge piece of jewel-like material that could have been crystal. There was no way we could have landed, although we wanted to. We were struck by the immensity of the thing&#8221;</em>, the pilots reported.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">On March 28, 1947 the &#8220;New York Times&#8221; reported about that discovery. In an interview with the newspaper, the former far east director of the Transworld Airlines, Maurice Sheahan, says he has seen 40 miles southwest of Xian a gigantic pyramid.<em>&#8220;I was impressed by its perfect pyramidal form and its great size,&#8221;</em> says Sheahan. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> Later, on March 30, 1947 the &#8220;New York Sunday Times&#8221; take over the <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/report" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Report">report</a> and published at the first the photo, which is actually made in 1945 by Gaussmann, and that was soon forgotten.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><img src="http://en.tarikhema.ir/images/2011/03/whitepyramid1947.jpg" border="0" alt="whitepyramid1947 Pyramids in China   Tarikhema.ir" hspace="5" vspace="5" width="350" height="281" title="Pyramids in China | Tarikhema.ir" /></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> The photo of the &#8220;white pyramide&#8221; of 1947.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> In 1978 the New Zealand researcher Bruce L. Cathie bothered itself of a clarification</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">of the puzzle. According to some correspondence with the <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/chinese" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with chinese">Chinese</a> embassy and the US air force he kept up the photo of 1947. He published the <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/picture" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with picture">picture</a> later in the first edition of his book &#8220;The Bridge to Infinity&#8221; of 1983. According to the photograph and the reports, the New Zealand researcher estimate that the pyramid must have at their basis a length of 450 meters (1500 feet) and a height of about 300 meters (1000 feet). It is a pyramid with four flat trapezoid shaped sides, a square plateau on the top and a square base, like the pyramids in Egypt and in Mexico. Such pyramids were up to now unknown to the experts in the western world and its existence was always denied: &#8220;There are no pyramids in China! Only pagodas &#8211; <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/temple" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Temple">temple</a> liked, peaked buildings&#8221;, so the opinion of the world experts. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> I came to the &#8220;white pyramid&#8221; when I already read reports in specialized books before and then I saw the appropriate photograph in <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/the-book" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with The Book">the book</a> &#8220;The Face on Mars&#8221; of 1989 <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/from" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with from">from</a> the two Australian authors Brian Crowley and James J. Hurtak. Brian Crowley then sent a copy of the image in his book to me and then I passed it to Peter Krassa &#8211; a Austrian book author and China researcher. Later I published it in my German book &#8220;Das Marsgesicht&#8221; (The Face on Mars) of 1995. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> I have left indeed Peter Krassa the photograph, but I wanted to however make and therefore prove attentive, that there are in fact pyramids in China. At the German edition &#8220;<a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/ancient" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Ancient">Ancient</a> Skies&#8221;, the journal of the &#8220;<a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/ancient" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Ancient">Ancient</a> Astronaut <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/society" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with society">Society</a>&#8221;, no. 6, 1991, I published a short report. One did not want to however publish the photograph of 1947. Gene Phillips, the founders of the mentioned <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/society" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with society">society</a>, has refused a report from me in the American journal of the <a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/society" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with society">Society</a> &#8211; with the reason, the photograph could be &#8220;something doctored&#8221;, somehow falsified. He considered the photograph for a forgery. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> However, I was some extent amazed when I saw a German book in a bookshop in Hamburg, Germany &#8211; during a lecture trip &#8211; with the title &#8220;Die weisse Pyramide&#8221; (The white pyramid), written by Hartwig Hausdorf, he was until then completely unknown to me. The book appeared in 1994 and then I found out that Peter Krassa had made the photograph available to him &#8211; without my knowledge. However, Hartwig Hausdorf mentioned me in his book so the case is functional. Hartwig Hausdorf was very much strove anyway &#8211; and that was also my aim &#8211; for the thing and he has undertaken several China trips, around the report to go onto the basis. He found several pyramid mountains in China in fact and he has also published photographs from that. These were the first real evidence that there are pyramidal buildings in China exist. The &#8220;white pyramid&#8221; could constitute Hausdorf nonetheless not. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> Bruce L. Cathie announces many details in its book &#8220;The bridge to Infinity&#8221; over pyramids in China and especially over the &#8220;white pyramid&#8221; &#8211; so too precise coordinate information. They should be had found north of the contemporary city Sian (Xi´an), by the foot of the river Wei-ho &#8211; exact at 34.26 degrees of northern width and 108.52 degrees of eastern length. This data were for me very helpful when I searched in September 2006, with &#8220;Google Earth&#8221; over China after the pyramids. This program was in the last years set up extended from Google into the Internet and one can recognize phantastic details of the Earth&#8217;s surface, by means of satellite consumption &#8211; as e.g. too the mysterious lines in the plain of Nazca. The solution is not in all fields optimally, nevertheless mostly quite well. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> According to some trouble I then kept up after the coordinate information of Bruce L. Cathie two pyramids. As result, I found further, more than twenty and bigger pyramids. They are square earth-pillars, constructed by Chinese craftsmen a long time ago very obviously. The professional world has therefore improper. There are indeed pyramids in China! Google Earth confirmed that again. The biggest one in this area is on 34.23 degrees North and 108.42 degrees East. The opinions diverge via the age of the pyramids. Some speak of 2500 to 3500 years. The legendary &#8220;<a href="http://en.tarikhema.ir/words/emperor" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Emperor">Emperor</a> of the prehistoric time&#8221; should at that time have been there. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> The pyramids are in the province Shaanxi, north of the city Sian (Xi´an). On the satellite photographs of Google Earth, no &#8220;white pyramid&#8221; is to be recognized. Under the coordinates 34.26 degrees of Nord and 108.52 degrees East, two pyramids are visible, but however they are not identical to the photo from 1947. The pyramid lying a little southwest, in my opinion, comes onto 34.22 Nord most of all and 108.41 East, north of the small city Hsien-yang into consideration. An arrangement shows similar factors as on the photograph from 1947: A square plateau, grazes (excavations) on the sidewalls, similar ones walkways (streets) and in the background, a small settlement. But that pyramid is definitely not the &#8220;white Pyramide&#8221;. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> In some Internet pages (Chris Maier) and in the homepage of wikipedia, the Maoling mausoleum is compared with the &#8220;white pyramid&#8221;. And that is in actual fact correct. Already on former satellite images which were published in the homepage of earthquest.co.uk of November 2001, that is to be recognized. With Google Earth, this pyramid &#8211; although at present another with bad resolution &#8211; is it to be seen also. They lies west of the pyramids of Hsien-yang, close to the city Xianyang, on 30.20 degrees North and 108.34 degrees East.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="justify"><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> The &#8220;white pyramid&#8221; needs not to be a tremendous mystic building. The pilots and the travel agents to see the Maoling mausoleum, with his size &#8211; according to the measurements via Google Earth &#8211; of about 222 to 217 meters on the ground and his height of about 46 meters, can quite have appeared below glistening sunlight glimmering and quite big. No other pyramid in this area is so big. Only the one on 34.23 North and 108.42 East, which has a size of 219 to 230 meters on the ground. The wellknown Shi Huang-ti Mausoleum, situated 50 kilometers East, has a size of 357 to 354 meters on the base and the whole complex has a size of 488 to 581 meters. But that grave mountain is actually a square mound and not a pyramid. Attainable is the area near Hsien-yang over the city Xi´an (Sian) obvious the airport that Hartwig Hausdorf with some traveling companions already used in 1994. They could for instance constitute seventeen pyramids within a radius of about three kilometers and they estimated its heights at sixty to seventy meters.</span></p>
