Still Waters Posted December 10, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Eight buried towers and the remains of a massive spiral structure created from sand have been discovered at Angkor Wat in Cambodia. The massive structure - almost a mile long - contains a spiral design, with several rectangular spirals that form a giant structure, archaeologists say. "This structure, which has dimensions of more than 1,500 m x 600 m (about 1 mile by 1,970 feet) is the most striking discovery associated with Angkor Wat to date. Its function remains unknown and, as yet, it has no known equivalent in the Angkorian world," Roland Fletcher, a University of Sydney professor, said in a statement put out by the university. http://www.livescien...-structure.html 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DieChecker Posted December 12, 2015 #4 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I think a garden is very likely, as might be ritualistic walking paths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred_mc Posted December 12, 2015 #5 Share Posted December 12, 2015 (edited) The spiral shape seems to be a pretty common shape in the ancient world. It exists on stone carvings from the bronze age here in Scandinavia, and I remember having seen on TV about an ancient spiral-shaped "labyrinth" somewhere here in Sweden as well. Probably, it has some religious ritualistic purpose. Edited December 12, 2015 by fred_mc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
