Silbury Hill – Chalk Mound or Pyramid Mound?

English Heritage and the Archaeological Establishment believe that Silbury Hill is a chalk mound. UNESCO describes it as the largest artificial mound in Europe. Passing by this ancient monument today, it is quite easy to readily accept this simple explanation.

However, if we literally dig a little deeper and look further afield, is there more to Silbury Hill than just a mound of chalk?

English Heritage goes further by confirming that Silbury Hill is a 4,500 year old ceremonial chalk mound, inspired by a ‘ritual’ and built by our pagan/druid pre-Christian ancestors. The date is mainly due to archaeologist Professor Richard Atkinson following the BBC sponsored excavation between 1968 and 1970, which produced a number of archaeological programmes. The television series was designed to increase the public’s awareness of archeology by attempting to reveal the inner secrets of Silbury Hill with the exciting prospect that as they proceeded up the hill they might discover a large golden statue of King Sil on horseback. or some other treasure. in the center of the hill.

It was not a surprise that no treasure was found. However, they discovered an antler on the hill outside the tunnel entrance that was radiocarbon dated to be 4,500 years old. Since no exciting artifacts were found in the making of the TV show, the antlers gained prominence. Somehow it was decided that this antler was used in the construction of Silbury Hill. The huge irrational leap soon followed – Silbury Hill must also be approximately 4,500 years old – and in turn confirmed the dubious date of Stonehenge at 4,500 years!

Interestingly, Josh McDowell and Don Stewart in a Yale University study found three different ages for the same antlers: 5,340 years, 9,310 years, and 10,320 years. It can be explained what caused the variations in the result: limestone pollution of the sample Did English Heritage set a date to match the existing age for Stonehenge? and how is it possible that they knew that it was used in the construction?

Professor Atkinson did not take notes to record his excavation, but did do so in an interview in The listener describe Silbury Hill as ‘a hugely complicated and very colorful layer cake’ and ‘wedding cake’, with the organic mound forming ‘sort of a huge organic club sandwich’ – a hint of something other than a bunch of random chalk?

I was therefore resigned to the fact that in our lifetime, we would be left with the Atkinson legacy and, in my opinion, Silbury Hill had been badly misrepresented, misrepresented and mistreated by the archaeological establishment.

But Atkinson left another legacy, a shaky English Heritage monument, which caused the vertical shaft dug by Edward Drax (with Cornish miners) to collapse in 1776. This produced a massive hole at the top of the hill in May 2000.

When the hole appeared, some local researchers rappelled down the shaft and filmed some interesting discoveries: smooth walls and sharp corners indicating the presence of a camera inside the hill, and significant levels of electrostatic electricity that destroyed a mobile phone that had crashed. accidentally brought inside. the axis

The discovery of the chamber confirmed the experience of Mrs. LF Brooks of Pewsey, who spoke to the Marlborough Times in August 1962. She described how during World War I she used to live very close to the hill and her parents told her there were caverns inside. When the entrance collapsed, in 1915, a small passage led first down, then changed course and continued up. It eventually forked, with one path leading to a dead end and the other to a cavern ‘as big as a room’. Beyond it was another cavern similar to the first: we took candles with us and used to write our names on the ceiling with the smoke from the candles.’ The whole system must have gone about three parts through the hill,’ she said. ‘And it was very scary… my brother would blow out the candle and I would be terrified.’

On the interesting question of energy levels at Silbury Hill, I learned Dr. Oleg Khavroshkin, Head of the Laboratory of Nonlinear Seismology, Russian Academy of Sciences, Schmidt Institute of Earth Physics, in Bosnia in September 2008. Using sophisticated scientific equipment, he and his team measured electrostatic energy, internal magnetic fields, and seismic waves emanating from the top of all of Egypt’s major pyramids. He discovered that each pyramid had its own unique transmission frequency.

The collapse of the shaft then prompted English Heritage to embark on the Silbury Hill Conservation and Restoration project in 2007/2008 and thus began my serious research on Silbury Hill.

The latest evidence found during this project in 2007/2008 by English Heritage archaeologists, including ants and insects, plus core samples taken from the hill in 2002, would further confirm English Heritage’s claim that Silbury Hill was 4,500 years old. . However, no forensic science techniques or clean room facilities were employed in extracting these samples from what is a highly polluted and contaminated hill! If it was a crime scene, any evidence would be considered inadmissible!

Similarly, from my investigations, mollusk shells found in the interior of the hill that were dated by the University of Mexico to be over 12,000 years old along with flint flakes of similar date found in pits at the top of the first hill stage. Unfortunately, this evidence must also be considered inadmissible due to contamination and speculation. So it would be hard to confirm my claim that Silbury Hill was built around 12,000 years ago.

It soon became apparent, however, with a number of discoveries, for example precise chalk blocks, large pieces of sarsen stone atop, chambers within, flakes of flint in the center, and a uniform sheet of material covering the foundation of the construction, that Silbury Hill is more than just a mound of chalk. In fact, new evidence points to the distinct possibility that Silbury Hill was originally a white pyramid and what we see today is the remains of a pyramid mound.

English Heritage removed large chunks of sarsen stone from the top of Silbury Hill in 2007.

“The discovery of large pieces of sarsen stones near the top of the final phase of the monument has also come as a surprise. Given the almost certain religious and ceremonial nature of Silbury, it is likely that these stones had some symbolic importance, potentially representing the spirits of dead ancestors.”

English Heritage made no attempt to ascertain the dimension, shape and composition of another very important piece of evidence: a uniform, uninterrupted membrane/sheet of dark brown butter-textured material, 5mm thick and free of stones, which appears to cover the base of this chalk construction. Samples were sent to the University of Arizona and they suggested that it may have the properties of a form of Mica called illite it had been ‘softened’ by water seeping through the building over many centuries.

If we look further afield, it appears that Silbury Hill shares scientific features and properties with many pyramids and pyramid mounds found on every continent on Earth. Based on ongoing serious scientific investigations, especially with the Egyptian pyramids, these pyramidal structures were used as multifunctional power sources that convert the natural flow of ionic current into electrostatic electricity and, through crystalline stone transducers such as granite and sarsen, in other forms of energy, including magnetic, seismic and air purifying properties (Bionizer).

So there are many compelling scientific and non-scientific clues to suggest that Silbury Hill is more than just a bunch of chalk.

There have probably been hundreds of similar constructions on Silbury Hill in this huge ancient Wessex complex, many of which have since disappeared. Interestingly, 4,500 years ago, there is no evidence of the population required in this area at this time to build ancient structures and megaliths like Stonehenge.

Although badly damaged by the Saxons breaching the great sarsen lid to make way for a lookout post and later by a series of tunnels dug by so-called archaeologists, Silbury Hill appears to have survived due to its size, position and the gradually grazing about the monument by nature.

The Romans, who had a settlement near Silbury Hill, must have produced some drawings or mosaics of what was an impressive structure at this time. Hopefully somewhere in some manor house or museum such a record is hidden?

Or we may have to wait for the progress of science, such as satellite-linked ground penetrating radar equipment to discover untouched ancient sites to be carefully studied and open mind with the latest forensic science techniques?

However, all Claims about the age and purpose of Silbury Hill can only be speculation at this point. However, I would encourage readers to visit Silbury Hill to engage with the unique energy of this ancient site and form their own thoughts and opinions: was it Silbury Hill at the dawn of humanity and who were the expert builders?
