Lombardy, Montecchia
Montevecchia is a small town in Brianza, not far from Milan. A holiday place for Milanese people, is located in the middle of the greenery and is surrounded by woods of the Parco del Curone. The old part of the village is located on the hill and from afar you can see in the evening the illuminated Sanctuary that looks like a lighthouse in a distant sea. It is the Sanctuary of the Blessed Virgin of Carmel that can be reached by climbing almost 200 steps. Montevecchia, in addition to lots of greenery, the sanctuary and many restaurants, has a special feature. Looking from the square or from the terrace of the church to the north, you can see hills. Nothing weird, you'll say, this area is full of hills. But looking more closely at the hills they look a lot like pyramids. This recent discovery, in 2001, was confirmed by aerial photographs. There are three pyramids, exactly like those of Cheops, Chefren and Mycerino in Egypt. The alignment between them is also identical. Make yourself like, why and by whom? There is some answers, even if not definitive, there is. The area was inhabited by man starting from that of Neanderthal 62,000 years BC. In fact, it is the oldest human settlement in the whole of Lombardy. Later it was always inhabited and at some point, the hunter population was scattered by farmers who came from Anatolia. The peoples who lived from agriculture had priests who indicated the right times for sowing and harvesting. These leaders were studying stars and it seems that, for their calculations, they needed pyramids. On the other hand, pyramids were built all over the world, not only in Egypt but also in China and South America. The pyramids are made of stone but are not built as in Egypt. The already existing hills were 'limited' until they were the exact size. The redundant soil and rock were exported and deposited elsewhere. Don't you believe it? Take a ride in Brianza and go check out this strange discovery.
