Vandalism in BiH: Why was the largest Stone Ball in the World damaged?
Saturday, 29 April 2023 19:36 Published in NewsDr. Semir Osmanagic was shocked by the vandalism of the stone ball in Zavidovici.
As Osmanagic says, the ‘Archaeological Park: Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun’ foundation has made a huge effort to promote the 37-ton prehistoric wonder since its discovery in 2016, and the world’s largest media have talked about this ball.
Local ‘treasure hunters’ caused irreparable damage to the world attraction, and the new plot owners failed to preserve it.
“Someone hoped to find a treasure, but they don’t understand that the treasure is in one piece. Our search for the material shows all its senselessness here in Zavidovici. Instead of this ball attracting guests to us every year, those with a slightly darkened mind think they will come to some personal gain, leaving generations of young people without their bread in tourism. It’s a shame,” concluded Osmanagic, Radio Sarajevo reports.
