Yonaguni Stone Temple Civilization
Yonaguni Stone Temple Civilization
One of the survey team, “Masaaki Kimura” of Ryukyu University, concluded that these ancient sites are pyramids that were created by humans linking the characteristics of the ancient sites with the stone castles and ancient tombs on the nearby islands and are architecture that is considered to be the “pyramids” of human civilization. However, there is some debate and disagreement that the oldest pyramids must be in Egypt only. “Atlantis of Japan” is a square monument resembling a stacked pyramid believed to be over 10,000 years old the remains of a lost Pacific civilization. Thousands of interconnected basalt columns with smooth surfaces such as the Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland were formed by volcanic eruptions millions of years ago
which may have been created by the prehistoric Jomon people of Japan who lived in the islands since 12,000 BC. They are similar to natural structures in other places around the world, but human civilization as long studied began more than 6,000 years ago. Aratake’s ship traveled south of the coast and when he reached the desired point he jumped in without delay. The young diver was left speechless with what he found. A huge ancient site that no one had ever discovered was right in front of him and it was so close to the shore that it was only a palm's width apart. What Aratake discovered looked like a temple. It was over 300 feet long 75 feet high and 100 feet wide. After swimming around for a while Aratake was even more amazed by this underwater site. It had perfectly straight edges perfectly cut lines and there was an area that looked like a temple gallery.

Yonaguni Island the westernmost island in Japan is located in Okinawa Prefecture and is part of the Yaeyama Islands. This small island has a circumference of about 30 kilometers and a population of less than 2,000 people. It is famous for its marine activities such as scuba diving and its native animals such as the Atlas butterfly underwater ruins and the Yonaguni horse. Beneath the waves off the coast of Japan’s Ryukyu Islands, there are many intriguing pyramid-like structures that have captivated divers and geologists since the site was discovered in 1987.

A local diver exploring off the coast of Japan’s southern Ryukyu Islands made a startling discovery. After diving 25 meters below the surface he came across a beautifully carved staircase with straight edges. The giant staircase measuring 50 meters long and 20 meters wide, now known as the Yonaguni Monument is one of the strangest underwater sites in the world. It looks like a temple measuring more than 300 feet long, 75 meters high and 100 feet wide. After swimming around for a while Aratake was even more impressed by the underwater ruins. It had perfectly straight edges. The cutting of lines and areas resembling temple balconies traces of quarries in the rocks and stones that appear to have been carved to look like animals.
A legendary rectangular monument of the Pacific Ocean which is said to have sunk underwater due to a major disaster said a Boston University professor who personally surveyed the site. The Yonaguni Monument was not created by humans. The basic geology and classical stratigraphy of sandstone tend to break into pieces along planes and have very straight edges especially in areas with many faults and geological activities. Most of the marks on the rocks are caused by underwater whirlpools or marine animals or by major earthquakes in the Pacific region. The Pacific Ring region is known for its strong earthquakes.
