Massive granite pillars from 900 miles away found at restricted Giza site. Broken granite pillars approximately 50 feet high found at the site Granite is described as transported from approximately 900 miles away (likely Aswan) Pillars are set directly into the bedrock; unknown depth
Broken granite pillars standing roughly 50 feet tall were documented at a restricted Giza site, with the stone likely transported from Aswan, about 900 miles away. They sit directly in bedrock with unknown depth, showing L-shaped interlocking stones and possible wood-tool cutting marks. Mud brick dwellings surround the megalithic area, and security ordered the explorer to leave.
