Sunken Pyramids and a Global Mystery: Did a Lost Civilization Once Connect the World?


Underwater Structures off Cuba

In 2001, marine engineer Paulina Zelitsky and her husband Paul Weinzweig—working with Cuba’s government and their Canadian company Advanced Digital Communications—used sonar to scan an area off Cuba’s western coast near the Guanahacabibes Peninsula. At depths of 600 to 750 meters (2,000+ feet), they identified symmetrical, geometric stone formations resembling pyramids, blocks, and circular layouts over a two‑square‑kilometer area Tampa Bay Times+5Wikipedia+5The Sun+5.

According to geologist Manuel Iturralde‑Vinent, such structures would have had to have submerged for up to 50,000 years to reach that depth—long before any human civilization capable of building them existed The Archaeologist+2Wikipedia+2The Sun+2. Other experts, including an underwater archaeologist from Florida State University, stressed the difficulty of reconciling these structures with known history Earthly Mission+10Wikipedia+10The Archaeologist+10.

To this day, no follow‑up investigations have been carried out, largely due to funding limitations and restricted access to the area The Sun.


Pyramid Inside an Ecuadorian Cave

In Ecuador’s Cueva de los Tayos, early explorers—including Juan Moricz in the 1960s—told stories of underground chambers containing artifacts, metal plates, and even a “gold library.” Later claims included tales of a stone pyramid inside the cave featuring star-pattern designs similar to those in Egypt es.wikipedia.org+11Wikipedia+11ecuadorecoadventure.com+11.

In 1976, a major expedition led by Stan Hall (including astronaut Neil Armstrong) thoroughly explored the caves. No golden library or pyramid matching Egyptian motifs was confirmed. While they did find smooth-walled corridors, burial sites, and carved passages, no firm evidence connected the cave’s features to ancient astronomical alignments or lost global civilizations pt.wikipedia.org+3Wikipedia+3ecuadorecoadventure.com+3.

Modern scientific consensus is that most sensational claims—especially about star maps or hidden pyramids—lack verifiable backing. Many experts classify these as misinterpretations or embellishments rather than solid discoveries ecuadorecoadventure.comWikipediaAncient Origins.

Final Thoughts

  • The sonar images off Cuba are intriguing, but without physical excavation or sampling, they remain unexplained anomalies, not proven ruins.

  • In Ecuador’s cave, the stories of pyramids and star maps stem from myth, speculation, and secondary accounts—not verified archaeology.

  • Without further exploration, both cases challenge our understanding—but they also illustrate how evidence is key before rewriting human history.

More Frozen Shrimp Recalled Amid Fears of Radioactive Contamination

Federal officials have expanded a recall of frozen shrimp products following concerns about contamination with Cesium‑137 (Cs‑137) , a radioactive isotope that can pose long-term health risks when exposure is repeated over time. Taste of Home +15 U.S. Food and Drug Administration +15 The Sun +15 The initial recall involved three specific Great Value raw frozen shrimp products sold at Walmart across 13 states. The implicated lot codes (best-by date March 15, 2027) include 8005540-1 , 8005538-1 , and 8005539-1 . Those products were sold in states like Texas, Florida, Ohio, and more, and consumers have been told to discard them.

Holocaust survivor says this is worse. Let that sink in.

Holocaust survivor says this is worse. Let that sink in. The One Video Israel Doesn't Want You To See What is happening in Gaza is a holocaust. The Israeli government is carrying out what it calls a solution to the Palestinian problem, and as a holocaust survivor I must say, not in my name. I see extermination, dehumanization, starvation, blockade, denial of water and medicine, the destruction of health services, the targeting of doctors and journalists, and so-called safe places that are in reality traps. Together, these form the conditions of a holocaust. None of this differs from the actions carried out by the Nazis during the Second World War. Gaza has become an open-air concentration camp. In effect, it is an extermination camp because the only way out is death by bombing, disease, or hunger. The only other option offered is forced removal to places where people do not wish to go. I lived through the holocaust myself. I experienced hiding, discrimination, and the devastation t...

Gaza Hospital Hit Twice, Journalists Among Dozens Killed

Image
A hospital in southern Gaza was struck  twice in what witnesses call a “double-tap” attack.  The first strike hit the upper levels of Nasser Hospital.  Just minutes later, a second strike targeted rescuers and journalists who had rushed to help the wounded. At least 20 people were killed, including five journalists. The timing of the second strike raises questions that go beyond the battlefield. A “double-tap” attack—hitting once, then striking again when rescuers and journalists gather— is widely seen as a tactic meant to maximize fear, silence witnesses, and discourage reporting . That is why press freedom groups are treating this not just as a tragic mistake but as a possible deliberate message.  Killing journalists on live coverage ensures fewer independent voices can document what is happening on the ground , leaving only official narratives to control the story. In conflicts where information is as powerful as weapons, the destruction of cameras and reporters...
