A. Preface

A-1/2 Goals of the Project

In last year, 2006, one, for many people incredible, hypothesis finally started to confirm itself. It was the hypothesis of Mr. sci. Semir Osmanagi? about the existence of the greatest and the only European archeological pyramidal complex, hidden underground for thousands of years, in center of Bosnia and Herzegovina. For that purpose, newly formed Foundation Archeological Park „Bosnian pyramid of the Sun“ made its first five-year-program of archeological research in the Visoko valley, and soon after that, defined its first one-year-program.

First goal of existing research program was to partially excavate the walls of large pyramids, as soon as possible, with over 30 projected probes. That goal was fully met for the higher ground Viso?ica (+765) outside of the earlier confirmed protected area of „Historical Old Town of Visoki“, which is located on top of the hill in a ruined condition. Now the whole hill is called „Bosnian pyramid of  the Sun“, which is known around the world.

Another pyramid, contrary to the Bosnian pyramid of the Sun, on the other side of river Fojnica, which flows into the river Bosnia in the center of town Visoko, is called Pyramid of the Moon (higher ground Plješevica). Numerous, very beautiful stone steps have been discovered there, made of granulated sandstone, precisely cut in a rectangular shape, or molded, and connected with firm binding mass of air-calcium-carbonate, the same one as on the connections of stone megaliths made of brachia-stone on the „Bosnian pyramid of the Sun“, which weigh more than 10 tons. Those megaliths are also precisely cut in a rectangular shape on all of their six sides. They were discovered by manual digging under humus and clay on a depth of 0,8 to 1,0 m.

All this research was done on the surface. Now we are projecting further. We will explore places where old tunnels can be found, which, according to the hypothesis of Semir Osmanagi?, connect all the pyramidal objects and stone temples under the earth. Detailed underground research – that is our second goal. With this, we hope to find underground tunnels and chambers up to the center and top of the pyramids themselves. We begin our work on reestablishment of two of such tunnels, „Ravne“ and „KTK“.

For such an approach, many different scientific and engineering methods must be used. Among them, modern geo-radar recordings are most important, thereafter the classical probes, which were also used until now, digs, chutes, research drillings, geological and hydrological mapping, different laboratory examinations and underground mining operations. All of this is systematically and rationally implied in this geo-mining-archeological project.

All of the mentioned complex works are real precedence of archeological research, so that research wouldn't be executed blindly, because we have to keep an eye on every spent cent. That money was collected thanks to the great effort and understanding from domestic and foreign sponsors, considering the needed amount of time and efficiency of archeological research.

Underground work resembles something new for the Foundation. Until now the Foundation engaged neither any experts nor any workers used to work underground. So, this time, considering the basis of this project, Foundation must ask for assistance of mining experts and qualified labor force from neighboring Bosnian brown coal mines, who were willingly offering their help to the Foundation last year and who worked voluntary from time to time on excavations of pyramidal objects.

For underground work there are many strict regulations in the law, which guarantee the security and the safety of workers on this kind of jobs. Such an undertaking requires production and approval of this very complex work documentation. That documentation, for this particular case, according to the clause 62 of federal mining law, is called “Secondary mining project”, because it’s not about any new mining objects, which are assumed in “Main mining project”, but about old underground tunnels, which are to be opened, reestablished and reconstructed.

Secondary mining project was created and revised by the authorized mining institution for planning – Coal mine Zenica, and it was approved by technical manager of the Foundation, who has all required conditions and mining knowledge, as required by the mining law. The law requires this project to be delivered to the Federal ministry of energetics, mining and industry, so they can take the projected mining works into account. Just as well, the Secondary mining project will be delivered to the Visoko Municipality, so they can be informed and so that they can hand out the necessary urban agreement for projected exploration and underground works on discovery and reconstruction of old underground tunnels.

Since all of these works, projected in the Secondary mining project, are in function of archeological research, which is being done on the same research area of the AP BPS Foundation, all of the most important contents are also included in this project, in which we specially focus on all the archeological research and their methods.

One special third goal is being set in this project – to enable a part of the old, partially excavated tunnels for tourist visits. This will probably draw in hundreds of thousands of tourists from all parts of the world to Visoko, where they’ll have many new and interesting things to see and explore.

In the end, there is an important fourth goal. Every single archeological artifact, discovered in the underground area, should be preserved, registered and processed. Together with the excavation of pyramids and stone monuments, which can be found under the surface of the earth, it contributes to the wholeness of the archeological research, as a way of exploring and protection of valuable cultural heritage of this country, which is also the purpose of existence of Foundation Archeological Park “Bosnian pyramid of the Sun”.

Excavations and mining operations, according to this project, will last for next 20 years.
