Acting Director General of History and Antiquities Ministry of Culture and Tourism, I Gde Pitana, said there was never a history of pyramids in Indonesia. This he said, responding to the "discovery" conical stone structures that resemble pyramids in the area of Mount Lalakon, Bandung, and Mount Saduhurip, Garut, West Java.
"In the history of Indonesia has never been and never any history of the pyramids," Gde Pitana in Jakarta, Sunday (10/12/2011).
Besides, according to him, logically, generally human pyramids built for the spiritual benefit of the worship of the gods.
In Indonesia, he said, had too many peaks that most likely people in Indonesia in the ancient times less likely to need to build the pyramids.
"Until now there has not been any archaeological finds that indicate there is a pyramid in Indonesia," he said.
However, it accommodates all forms of information conveyed by various circles of society and follow the truth as soon as possible or else ketidakbenarannya.
He said he himself had been officially commissioned the London Archaeological Center to conduct the testing, research, assessment, and excavation to prove the rock structure is a pyramid or not.
"So it can not be ascertained, the information we received was a conical stone structure up-stairs like a step-pyramid. I can not say it correctly (pyramid) or not," said Gde Pitana.
He added, an archaeologist from the previous ITB have found similar structures were mostly found in the islands, where many mainland emerged as a result of rising sea water.
"The structure of such a lot going on in Indonesia, if so means this is not the result of human culture," he said.
Even so, it would still follow up on reports from the public and prove the truth of theories about the pyramids in Indonesia.
