Ancient Tombs Older Than Egypt’s Pyramids Emerge in Poland

Neolithic-era pyramids, known as Giant’s Graves, have been discovered in Poland’s Wielkopolska region.

Built around 5,500 years ago by the Funnelbeaker culture, these elongated earth mounds lined with massive stones served as tombs for important community figures.

Despite stone removal over time, the pyramids retain features like stone enclosures and east-facing entrances, possibly linked to sun worship, Art Net has reported.

Researchers plan full excavations to explore burial goods and better understand these semi-agrarian societies, which honored leaders or shamans through these monumental tombs.
