Secrets in Stone
Deep in Thailand lies the ancient moated city of Si Thep,now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, surrounded by enormous earthworks, reservoirs, and more than one hundred ancient structures. But the most intriguing monument sits just outside the city walls — a pyramid that for centuries appeared to be nothing more than a natural hill. Then archaeologists excavated the mound in 2008 anddiscovered a massive stepped pyramid hidden beneath. Officially, the site is attributed to the little-known Dvaravati culture of the 6th–9th centuries AD. But its architecture, precision sculptures, and the strange artifacts raise seriousquestions. Why is the pyramid unlike anything else in Thailand? How doyou explain the precision sculptures? Was the pyramid deliberately buried, and why?How do you explain the undeciphered script linked to India and Indonesia? In this episode of Secrets in Stone, we explore one of themost mysterious ancient sites in Southeast Asia.
