World’s Oldest Pyramid Found Not in Egypt or Americas, But in Indonesia
It’s not just an oddly shaped hill, after all.
Humans began sculpting a small hill into a larger pyramid almost 25,000 years ago, and then building layers of sand and rocks on top of that.

I am Indonesian, and this "pyramid" topic feels like it is being used for nationalistic purposes. [参照]
