| 释义 |
The Blaauboschkraal stone ruins, also known as Adam's Calendar[1][2][3] are a provincial heritage site in Waterval Boven in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa.[4] The site was originally declared a national monument on 18 April 1975.[5][6] The ruins are the remains of structures created by people who settled the region in the 16th century and who altered the landscape to increase agricultural yields in high-altitude grasslands.[7] The stone rings are believed to have been used as enclosures for cattle (kraals).[6][8] The Blaauboskraal stone ruins are among a number of stone circle ruins located in the Mpumalanga escarpment over an area of approximately 150 km2, a number of which are facing threats to conservation.[9] Information about the people who created these stone circles and terraces was often omitted from South African historical sources.[7] Alternate theoriesAlternate theories exist of alien or ancient origins. The most prominent proponent of an alternate origin, politician Michael Tellinger, calls the site "Adam's Calendar" and claims they are remains of the oldest man-made site in the world built by Enki 300,000 years ago as an ancient calendar.[10][1][2][3] Further reading
