Gympie Pyramid~ Legend of the so called "Gympie pyramid" with Nicko eshuys and Chris palfrey

The "Gympie Pyramid" is a terraced hill on the outskirts of Gympie in South East Queensland. It purportedly had stone structures on it, built before modern European settlement. and is even known and spoken of in the local aboriginals legends they tell of a sacred hill, built by a race that came hear in crafts that looked like great big birds(boats) thousand's of years ago.

the kabi kabi tribe believed that the "sacred hill" was cursed and to this day speak of the site to have bad spirits.Me and my friend decided to check out the rumors of this ancient pyramid structure. what we found amazed us, even know the site itself is very over grown and has had a lot of flood damage done to it, over the thousands of years it's been there. We both agreed that there was defiantly some kind of structure.Not sure what, or who... but something. we both agreed it was similar to the old Mexican step pyramids.in conclusion.We don't really know what it is.. all we do know is, if it's not aboriginals that built it.. and it was hear before white settlers arrived in 1865(pre cook) then who built this strange near megalithic structure?

The first recorded pioneer evidences of an old "ruins complex" appeared between 1860-1880. Such "evidences" were verified later when there was a desperate need for sandstone blocks for commercial constructions following the Gympie Gold Rush days of 1867. To the advantage of the settlers and new business operators (and opportunists), local knowledge soon spread that nearby was a place in the jungle that had vast quantities of pre-shaped sandstone blocks ready for "recycling". In those days, historical factors had never been considered. Subsequently, the sources of the vast "piles" of rock were pilfered in such large quantities by the local tradesmen entrepreneurs for houses, fireplaces and commercial establishments(the wall of the church at the start of the clip) that by.1885, the entire site was devoid of any past existence. The ancient site was then reclaimed by thick woodland forest and with the passing of time -- forgotten~

Claims of the discovery of an ancient "pyramid ruin" or "terraced hill mound" in prickly pear forests on the outskirts of Gympie City in the 1960's then bounced back and forth for nearly forty years like a tennis match on whether such a relic did or did not exist during aeons past

Today, the jury is still deciding its verdict. Most agree that "something" did exist -- What it was is the ongoing question. Further, most agree that the "ruins" were definitely not of any Aboriginal (they did not build in or use stone constructions) or early European settlement origin but built by some ancient mariner civilisation possibly plundering the gold resources of the Gympie goldfields (substantiated by old local Aboriginal legend stories). All of these factors only added to the intrigue of a growing myth

Gympie pyramid org---"Importantly the soil becomes progressively worse the higher up the slope one proceeds, until near the summit where it is almost pure sand. Yet the terraces become more significant as one approaches the summit.That is to say there are higher stone walls with more energy required to construct them the worse the soil becomes. This again contradicts the theory that the terraces had an agricultural function or purpose"Sorry i couldn't fit everything in 1 comment,def not Italian

[hypophosphorus666]

:Interestingly the soil of the lower terraces turned out to be a red sandy loam, evidently this terrace was right on the conjunction of where two geological features meet creating a soil which was mixed with the weathered sand stone above that terrace and the clay based red soil zone which exists lower down the hillside.This is an important feature because it shows the soil is very much more suited for agricultural purposes on the gentle slopes at the base of the hill below the terraced area.

[hypophosphorus666]

this is part of a dig report from gympiepyramidorg The results of this excavation were interesting in as much as the exposed soil strata clearly demonstrated that there had been no “back filling” of the terraced area behind the stone walls with any kind of higher grade soil. The thin native soil was all that was there

check the site out.it's very interesting. IF The site is pre Cook.And spoken about by the local aboriginal tribes.that throws a massive spanner in our history books.cheers mate

[hypophosphorus666]

@mulcontent yeah I've read these claims.that it was originally a old vineyard built from Italian immigrantsfact is there is no record of any Italian immigrants living in the area up until the end of 1947.and the site was already there when james nash founded gympie in 1867 so it does predate white settlers.rumors grew about a terraced stone structure on the outside of the town, that had perfectly cut sandstone blocks to use for construction, this was recorded.and the local tribe speak of it too

[hypophosphorus666]

thanks mate.Very interesting indeed.

I heard about this from a Aussie friend,not sure really what to make of it.although there seems to be a lot of evidence pointing towards cook really not being the first to discover Australia.it's well know that the dutch actually did around the 15th century got to W.a also reached Tasmania,which was called van demons land.in 2001' a Chinese map was found that carbon dated to be 13 to 12century b.c with what seems to be a detailed map of all of Australia's as well as all of Antarctica.GREAT VID!!

Thanks for posting this video guys. And also good to see that you dont jump to conclusions as to what it could be or whom it was built by.

@mulcontent sweet , well i guess that wraps that up then

[mulcontent]

@cobboGHS91I contacted Prof. Nageeb Kanawati head of Egyptology at Macquarie Uni last year and he confirmed the glyphs were " merely scratches done by an amateur " and also around the same time I contacted the NPWS who also confirmed the site was monitored over a few years post discovery and they observed the creation of the underground chambers in 2001 , photo evidence of materials stockpiled on the site as well as catching one culprit red handed in 1984 , I have copies of both documents

[cobboGHS91]

@mulcontent i also contacted John Anthony West on this subject and the findings of the NPWS and Macquarie Uni Egyptology Dept. from 1983, he said it needs re examining with modern technology and ideas.

[mulcontent]

@hypophosphorus666 Maybe you could track down some old newspaper reports , parish maps , goverment reports would make better evidence for your arguments than hearsay from a hardly reliable webpage that hasn't been updated since 2007 and Aboriginals did work in stone making structures ( not buildings ) for ceremonies and track marking , even evidence of a stonehenge type celestial monument in Vic

[cobboGHS91]

@mulcontent realy and what about the shaft that has been found underneath them

[mulcontent]

@cobboGHS91 Gosford Hieroglyphs were de bunked as fakes in 1983 by the NPWS and Macquarie Uni Egyptology Dept.

[1000gohead]

great video, young chap

[cobboGHS91]

this site is as important as the gosford hieroglyph site that needs to be properly aknowledged and excavated

[noosalife111]

amazing story, it must be exposed. great video Nicko. keep them coming.
