The Great Wall of China is still of great interest to historians. Few people know, but some parts of this grandiose structure are not in China. Fragments of buildings, which are also referred to as the defensive lines of the ancient Chinese state, are located in the east of Mongolia and even in Russia. Scientists from Israel explored the northern part of the ancient fortification and came to the conclusion that it was not built to defend against the attacks of nomads. These structures are not at all like those sections of the wall that tourists visit in China.

Archaeologists from Israel have concentrated their attention on the northern section of the wall with a length of more than 700 kilometers. For two years, they explored that part of the structure, which is located mainly on the territory of Mongolia. It differs from the rest of the sites and consists of disparate fragments, which are small structures of a rounded or rectangular shape. In their opinion, it is quite low, which does not allow it to perform the functions of a protective structure. But it is great for observing herds of pets, for example.

 

Researchers suggested that these sections of the wall were not built for defense, but for control and observation. This is not a continuous defensive line, the buildings are located in convenient valleys along which cattle may have been driven. These towers made it possible to count the number of livestock and, probably, calculate the amount of tax, but other goals are not excluded. These fragments of the wall could also serve as customs points that controlled the passage of trade caravans.

 

The northern sections of the wall are not the most ancient, although they were built using simpler technologies. Their exact age has not been established, but most likely they were built at the end of the 1st millennium AD, when China was going through a period of fragmentation and consisted of different kingdoms ruled by separate dynasties. Perhaps these sections of the wall were built during the Liao dynasty, which was just in the north of modern China and in the east of Mongolia.

 

 

The fortifications are not always well read on the ground, so the researchers resorted to aerial photographs. Scientists also used a lot of archival materials to find out the purpose of the northern sections of the wall. These structures are really different from all the famous fragments located in China, so it is very likely that they were built for a different purpose. Perhaps scientists will reconsider their assignment to the Great Wall of China, because if the conclusions of Israeli experts are correct, then the buildings are not part of it.

The other day, the Russian media announced the discovery of another sensation. In the Urals, a pyramid was found: in space photographs they discovered something of the correct form with smooth edges and declared it a sensation. The replicated reports even said that the find was so impressive that scientists from the Russian Geographical Society would go to the place of the mysterious pyramid this summer. But those same scientists who allegedly already collect backpacks for the future campaign, exposed the authors of the loud find.

 

At first glance, everything looks like a scientific sensation. In a remote taiga area, where there are no roads or communications, there is a man-made pyramid that no one has ever heard of. The mysterious object is located in the west of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, on the territory of the Ural Mountains. This is a deserted territory, occasionally in this region there are hunters and reindeer herders – representatives of the northern peoples of the Khanty and Mansi. They supposedly know about the existence of the mountain, consider it sacred and do not recommend visiting this peak.

 

 

It is reported that the height of the structure is 880 meters, it looks like a pyramid of Cheops, but significantly higher. To get to the location of the pyramid is very difficult. To do this, you have to overcome 400 kilometers on foot from the nearest village or get to the place by helicopter. But even despite such difficulties, scientists are already allegedly ready to go on a journey in the summer in order to explore the sensational find. It is reported that the authors of the discovery are members of the Wild North tourist club, who, exploring the area of ​​the People’s-Itinsky Ridge on accessible satellite imagery, stumbled upon an unusual object.

 

 

Seeing a message about the find, employees of the Russian Geographical Society hastened to comment on the event, as well as their alleged expedition to the pyramid. It turned out that the mountain has long been known to geographers, plotted on topographic maps and is not a sensation. Yes, it has an unusual shape, but it is far from an ideal pyramid and is not something man-made: mountains of this shape are found all over the planet. As for the proposed expedition, they really planned to send a group of scientists to this part of the Urals, but visiting the sensational pyramid was not part of the researchers’ plans.

 

 

Alas, the sensational pyramid quickly turned into an ordinary mountain, albeit of an original form.
