NASA Discovers Ancient Hindu City
USA (VNN) - CNN reports that Archeologists have discovered never
before seen layers beneath the famous Angkor Hindu temple in Northwestern
Cambodia, which is considered the largest Hindu temple known on
earth. With the help of newly developed space radar technology
by NASA, layers of different kind of images taken from space,
have revealed never before discovered detail of archeological
structures beneath the earth.
This new technology has revealed a city surrounding the temple,
the size of today's Los Angeles.
Also discovered were sculptures dating back further in time as
previously estimated. Archeologists have until now estimated the
structure's age to be 1000 years.
