They both built triangles and platforms. Clearly evidence of the Akashic records.

You've never noticed how the spiritual Tradition, religious rites and cultural expressions of the Mesoamerican civilizations and Mesopotamian civilizations are extremely similar, despite being so distant from one another?

-They´re not extremely similar, you idiot

You really don't see any similarities between them?

It's always such a cozy feeling when someone recognizes me when I'm anonymous, honestly.

Superficial ones, yes. Pyramids are just high-tech mound-building. Mound-building cultures arose independently, in North America, Europe, China... and don't forget the pyramidal structures in ancient India, Southeast Asia, etc.

I've honestly not noticed this. Please give some examples of the parallels.

>>1353111
No, not superficial ones, integral similarities that run through the core of their cultures. Pyramids were never simple mechanistic structures, they were the centers of spirituality and the ruling priesthoods and their social hierarchies, which are too complex to simply be coincidental or superficial.

>too complex to simply be coincidental or superficial.

That's a conclusion. Any support for this idea?

Also, all civilizations have historically been spiritual/religious, with a priestly caste, and social hierarchies.

Wow, almost as if pyramid/cone shapes are the easiest and most structurally sound way to construct buildings. I've also noticed many cultures have utilized windows. Could it be ayylmaos?
