In recent years, aerial satellites have discovered hills across Italy that are shaped like four cornered pyramids suggesting that these are no ordinary hills but the sites of ancient man made constructions beneath the earth’s surface!
These fascinating hill pyramids can be seen at Santa Agata de Goti near Naples where there are three of them. There’s one at Versallo near Reggio Emilia and two monumental hill pyramids at Piediluco near Terni, one hundred kilometres north of Rome. We have an interesting article detailing the three hill pyramids at Pontassieve near Florence that’s well worth a look.

Another unusual common trait that these sites share is that they’re all located along the Italian parallel of the ‘Zeus Line’. This line comes from a legend that the Greek lord of the gods, Zeus used to fly directly along a route from Mount Olympus in Greece to the Hyperboreans.
Other such parallels of the Zeus Line that runs through other countries sees lots of other pyramid hills like this and unusual monuments.
Go on a fun trip to some of these ancient sites and enjoy a truly enriching tourist experience!
