O Cerro El Cone It is a pyramidal hill in the Peruvian Amazon Rainforest, whose origins are a mystery. For indigenous peoples, this is a place with a very deep spiritual meaning.
O Cerro El Cone It is a pyramidal formation of 400 meters high in the Amazonian.
The formation, whose name means “Morro do Cone”is located in a mountainous region on the border between Peru and Brazil, known as Serra do Divisor. It is abruptly raised from the relatively flat landscape of the east of Peru, becoming visible from the west to the Andes-400 kilometers away-on a clean day.
As Live Science writes, the surrounding jungle is a place of biodiversity and houses several vulnerable species. The training is wooded And it is part of a large area that has been considered a biodiversity conservation priority since the 1990s.
This hill is isolated from the other peaks and has a unusual pyramidal formwhich makes her stand out from the rest of the mountain range.
Mysterious cone
The origins of this strange peak are a mystery due to its remote location – so remote that Photographic records are really scarce.
While some experts suggest that the cone can be a extinct volcano; others theorize that it can simply be a unusual rock formation.
“Sacred Pyramid”
Indigenous peoples, in turn, have another explanation for the bizarre mountain.
As wrote in 2023 the Peruvian newspaper, the Cerro El Cone It is a spiritual entity for local tribes and groups, some of which reverence the peak as a “Apu Andean” – a holy God or spirit of the mountain.
In the mythologies of Peru, Bolivia and Ecuador, the Apus emerged from the earth to guide and protect people who live nearby.
A fourth explanation is that Cerro El Cono is on the ruins of a huge pyramid built by old indigenous tribes.
