Mount Padang , As the World World's Oldest

Mount Padang, As the World 's Oldest and Civilization Map Could Change the World
The discovery site of Mount Padang in Cianjur, West Java, it is surprising the various circles of society, especially the archaeological researchers. Because, based on research, this site is estimated around 13,000 years old.
That means, at the site of Mount Padang civilization older than the civilizations of Mesopotamia and the Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, which has been believed to be the oldest civilization in the world. So finding the site of Mount Padang is still in the research process, can alter the map of world civilization.
Research on the site of Mount Padang done since November 2011. Having researched for almost two years now, it is known that the site of Mount Padang is not a site that is simple, but a very large monument. The site is expected to reach 10 times the vast extent of the Borobudur temple in Central Java.
Independent Research Team Coordinator Integrated Mount Padang, Prof. Danny Hilman Natawidjaja said, based on research carried out so far shows that the composition of the rocks on the site of Mount Padang already quite advanced.
The stone structure is similar to the technology world Machu Pichu in Peru. According to Danny, which is more surprising than the discovery of the site of Mount Padang is the age of the stone structure different from each layer.
The top layer is younger, which is 500 years BC, there is also a layer of 7,000 -year -old BC. In fact, if calculated to the lowest layer, site of Mount Padang estimated around 13 thousand years old.
"Mount Padang was a great monument. Stacked place the first layer of the height to 100 meters, so the extent of 150 acres, which is obviously 10 times larger than the building ( temple ) Borobudur. Arguably shows its age more than 13 thousand years there have been about 3 or 4 carbon dating ( age measurements based on the content of the element carbon layer in the layer - ed) that we did in the map analysis, "said Danny Natawidjaja.
Danny said, with such an old age, the site of Mount Padang can be said to be the site of the oldest civilizations in the world, surpassing the Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, Mesopotamia civilization, and civilization of the Aryans, whose age is between 2,500 and 4,000 years BC. So therefore , the existence of Mount Padang site can automatically change the map of the world civilization.
Danny Natawidjaja added, " world civilization known to man that it is a new advance of approximately 6,000 years, Mesopotamia, and that in Egypt ( Pyramids ) Giza, which is 2500-2800 years BC. It is regarded as the oldest civilization in the world. If we say Mount Padang 13,000 years old, uprooted all. It certainly would make our ( Indonesian ) which became the center of civilization in the past. "
Site of Mount Padang is located in the village of Karyamukti, Campaka subdistrict, Cianjur has been opened for tourist visits. Head of Culture and Tourism of the Province of West Java, Nunung Sobari said, site of Mount Padang is a priceless cultural asset that is owned by Indonesia.
" Mount Padang cultural heritage site it was very very great, but should be based on a more comprehensive study. By visiting ( tourists on holiday , ed . ) Good, but there should also be efforts to maintain the condition ( the site ), " said Nunung Sobari.
Until now, researchers who are members of the Independent Research Team Integrated Mount Padang is still doing research and excavation or excavation of the site of Mount Padang. Management of Mount Padang site currently is under the Archaeological Heritage Preservation Hall or BP3, Technical Implementation Unit of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism of Indonesia is located in the area.

Borobudur Temple

Origin History of Borobudur Temple
History of Borobudur temple is located in the village of Borobudur , Magelang regency , Central Java . This temple is the second largest Buddhist temple after Ankor Wat temple in Cambodia and is included in one of the seven wonders of the world . There are several versions of the origin of the name of this temple . The first version says that the name is derived from the Sanskrit Borobudur is " bara " which means " temple or monastery " and " beduhur " which means " high / above " .

The second version says that the name Borobudur History probably derived from the word " sambharabudhara " which means " mountain slope terraces " . The third version is interpreted by prof . Dr. . Borobudur Poerbotjoroko explains that the word is derived from the word " bhoro " which means " monastery " or " boarding " and " budur " which means " above " .

This opinion is corroborated by Prof. Poerbotjoroko . Dr. . W.F. Stutterheim who found Bodorbudur means " monastery on a hill " . Meanwhile , other versions put forward by Prof. again . J.G. de Casparis based Middle Reef inscription , mentioning that Borobudur is derived from the word " bhumisambharabudhara " which means " a place of worship for the ancestors " .


Still based on Middle Reef inscription and coupled with the inscription Kahuluan , JG de Casparis in his dissertation in 1950 said that the history of Borobudur Temple was established by King Samaratungga estimated from Sayilendra dynasty circa Sangkala Sagara kstidhara sense or Çaka year 746 ( 824 AD ) and can be solved by a new daughter named Dyah Ayu Pramodhawardhani in about the year 847 AD . Making this temple according to inscriptions Klurak ( 784 M ) assisted by a teacher from Ghandadwipa ( Bengalore ) named Kumaragacya and a prince from Kashmir named Visvawarma .

Other versions

Historical Origins of Borobudur - Borobudur temple is one of the famous tourist attraction in Indonesia, which is located at Borobudur , Magelang , Central Java . Borobudur Temple was founded around the year 800 AD by early Buddhists Wahayana . In the history of Borobudur temple , there are various theories that explain the origins of the name Borobudur temple . One of them states that the name comes from the word Borobudur possibility Sambharabhudhara which means " mountain " ( bhudara ) where the slopes are located terraces .


In addition there are some other folk etymology . Suppose that the word comes from the greeting Borobudur " the Buddha" is due to a shift into borobudur sound . Another explanation is that the name is derived from two words "coal " and " beduhur " . The word bara said to have originated from the word monastery , while there are also other explanations where the coal comes from Sanskrit which means temple or monastery and beduhur meaning is " high " , or to remind the Balinese language means " above " . So the point is a monastery or hostel located on high ground .


Historian J.G. de Casparis in his dissertation for a doctorate in 1950 argued that Borobudur is a place of worship . Based on the inscription Karangtengah and Kahulunan , Casparis estimate Borobudur founder of the dynasty was the king of Mataram dynasty named Samaratungga , who do construction around the year 824 AD


The giant new building could be completed at the time of her daughter , Queen Pramudawardhani . Borobudur Development estimated take half a century . In Karangtengah inscriptions also mentioned about the bestowal of land sima ( tax -free land ) by CR ? Kahulunan ( Pramudawardhani ) to maintain Kam ? L ? N is called Bh ? Misambh ? Ra . The term Kam ? L ? N is derived from the word meaning first place origin , a sacred building to honor the ancestors , the ancestors of the dynasty Sailendra possibility . Casparis estimates that Bh ? Noodles Sambh ? Ra Bhudh ? Ra in the Sanskrit language meaning " Mount of the set of ten levels boddhisattwa virtue " , was the original name of Borobudur .

The location of this temple is located in the hills above the village of Borobudur , Maybe , Magelang or 42 km of the town of Yogyakarta . Surrounded Hill Manoreh stretching from east to west . While in the east there is Mt Merapi and Merbau , as well as the west side there Mount of Sindoro and Sumbing .


It takes no less than 2 million stone blocks of andesite or equivalent square 50.000m to build the temple of Borobudur . The overall weight of the temple reached 3.5 million tons . Like most buildings of the temple , Bororbudur have 3 parts of the building , ie legs , and upper body . Foot building called Kamadhatu , which tells the story of consciousness filled with lust and animalistic traits .

In the eyes of the Sahara Desert

 The Sahara Desert

 This structure is also known as the eye of the eye or eyes blue Saharan Africa , is circular and prominent geological feature in the Sahara desert in Mauritania near Ouadane . This structure has a diameter of 40-50 km form the concentric circles that is easily visible from space . Structure of prominent circular feature in the Sahara desert has attracted attention since the early space missions because it looks like a giant bull's eye .

Originally interpreted as an asteroid impact structure because of its high level of circularity , and then as a structure formed by a volcanic eruption also seems unlikely because of the lack of volcanic or igneous domes , is now said to be very symmetrical and very eroded geology of the dome collapsed . So now considered by many to be caused by uplifted rock carved by erosion . But the fact that the " ring " , is equal to the center and a circular structure remains a mystery .

This is an interesting viewpoint and deserves further investigation . However, this area is quite dangerous for the moment . The first thing to do is investigate the depressed corridor access to the " eye " of the West . This is probably the ancient canal or delta and the only access to the Atlantic Ocean . It is much easier to get a result there directly because of " eyes " piecemeal collapse and geological changes that make the discovery difficult .

Most experts geological data there is says : " According to the data field mapping and aeromagnetic , gabbroic rocks forming two concentric rings . Rings is approximately 20 m wide and located about 3 km from the center of the structure . Outer ring is approximately 50 m in width and is located about 7 up to 8 km from the center of the structure . Thirty-two carbonatite dikes have been mapped in the structure .

Dikes are generally about 300 m long and usually 1 to 4 m wide . They consist of a large carbonatites are largely devoid of vesicles . Carbonatite rocks have been dated as cause has cooled between 94-104 million years ago . A plug kimberlitic has been found in the northern part of the structure . Kimberlite was estimated to be approximately 99 million years . This is an intrusive igneous rock is interpreted as an indication of alkaline igneous intrusions large current and underlying structures are created by lifting stones on top " .

When it comes to the age of 100 million years of geological structure , we have to remember this , but if the old stratas are lifted it is normal . And we get extensive hydrothermal alteration and rhyolite and gabbros central megabreccia created by hydrothermal dissolution and collapse there his experts know that 40,000 years ago there was a large lake in the Sahara .

We know that the Sahara still has moisture 6500BC . Sahara desert which covers ten African countries with 9.4 million square kilometers is 100 Million years ago, all covered by the sea . So in any case it is assumed that this is a viable research attention .
