Imagine, that almost everything they teach us about the ancient history is wrong. These are words of a man, who claims that in Visoko, Bosnia and Herzegovina, he has discovered “the world’s oldest and tallest pyramid, built by an advanced ancient civilization” as well as man-made tunnels, which have a special, healing energy. Scientists have overwhelmingly refuted claims that there are pyramids in Visoko. In 2021 more than 130 000 people visited the place.
Some believe than talismans have special energy. Some believe that nothing happens by chance. The number of conspiracy theories seems to be in the rise.
The ability to believe is a unique pattern of humankind. But why do we feel such a need to believe in something? And even if it is a lie - does it matter at the end, if the believing itself gives us what we need - a hope, feeling of belonging, a purpose in life?
In the project "A man went up the hill, came down the pyramid" I follow the narrative of a self-proclaimed archeologist and founder of Bosnian pyramids.
