Gunung Padang (Encore)

13 min • 14 december 2024

Located on the island of Java in Indonesia, just 100 kilometers from the capital of Jakarta, lies what might be one of the most important archeology sites in the world.

While it has been known to locals for centuries and to professional archeologists for over 100 years, it has only been seriously studied in the last several decades.

Some of the estimates of the age of this site, if true, would radically transform what we know about early human civilization.

Learn more about Gunung Padang, perhaps the oldest and largest pyramid in the world, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
