Gunung-Padang 12,000 Years Older Than Gobekli Tepe?

Guest

Gunung Padang, in Indonesia’s West Java province (coordinates: 107° 3'22.40"E 6°59'37.62"S), is seen as Southeast Asia’s largest and most enigmatic megalithic complex. Located near the village of Karyamukti, some 20 miles (30 kilometres) from the city of Cianjur, and 55 miles (90 kilometres) from the capital Jakarta, it consists of a series of rectangular stone enclosures with inner partitions, walkways and gate entrances, as well as various rock mounds, all of them in a ruinous state. They are constructed of naturally-forming andesite, i.e. basaltic, pillars or columnar blocks. The size of the blocks varies between 25 centimetres and 40 centimetres in width and height, and on average around 1.5 metres in length, with a weight of approximately 250 kilograms. Some of blocks, which have either a roughly square or polygonal profile, are actually much larger in size, with weights exceeding 600 kilograms.
