A few weeks back the Discovery channel had a program on these Yonaguni structures. It was very interesting. Basically this Japanese Archaeologist discovered the structures. The program was going back and forth between him and some other scientists. He was arguing that these were man made. By looking at the structures they certainly do look man made. They are very sharply cut, many at 90 degree angles, and they are very platformed. The other scientist was claiming that “No, these are naturally formed. The strong ocean currents would break off large portions of the rock.” When asked if the ocean broke the rock like this, shouldn’t there be lots of fragments around the guy said “No, the ocean currents are strong and would carry them away”. Ok, nothing yet. So next they show some circular type divots next to each other on various parts of these platforms. The Japanese Archaeologist was saying “I think these circular cuts were used to hold wooden poles upright.” It was pointed out that they were not just random circles, but that they seemed to line up with other indentations. The other scientist again said “No, no, you can find any pattern you want. Nature does a lot of these sorts of things where parts of rock break away….”. Ok, so nothing. Then it was pointed out that the structures underwater appeared similar in design to some catacombs that were on dry land. There were some old burial chambers. The skeptical scientist admitted they looked similar, and suggested that likely the catacomb builders had been underwater and seen these naturally formed structures and mimicked them having been inspired. Ok, either way. So the program continued like this and no one really conclusively proved their point. But at the end of the program the Discovery channel crew decided to go underwater some more, this time to a section that had been unexplored. So they are swimming around, here and there. And what to they come across?….

…. But a giant carved head. I would guess the head was 10-15 feet high, with a flowing headdress carved into the rock. Ummmm…. How do you explain this? It was very clear, with eyes and everything. It was very interesting to see. As far as I’m concerned, seeing a giant submerged stone carved head is proof enough for me.
