Archaeologists in western Poland have uncovered two massive prehistoric structures dubbed the "Poland pyramids," offering a remarkable glimpse into one of Europe's earliest agricultural societies.

Archaeologists believe these structures served as communal burial sites for significant individuals within the Funnelbeaker Culture. Despite being a relatively egalitarian society, key figures such as tribal leaders, priests, or shamans were buried in these grand tombs...
The construction of the Poland pyramids is considered a remarkable achievement of Neolithic engineering. These tombs were built using massive stones—some weighing up to 10 tons—which were transported over long distances using rudimentary tools and communal labor.
