There have been strange and mysterious occurrences happening over the past week but it looks like it’s not over yet.
Just yesterday, we found out that the mystery monolith found in the US desert had disappeared and now, a second monolith has been found in Europe!

The mystery of the silver monolith that was found in the middle of the southeastern Utah desert in the US has gained global interest and if you haven’t seen it or heard about it by now, we’re a little shocked tbh.
However, we were all left with more questions after the monolith disappeared and had been “taken by an unknown party or parties”.
After the disappearance of the monolith in Utah, another monolith (or is it the same one??) was discovered on a Romanian hillside.
Standing around 4 metres tall, the silver structure was found on Doamnei Hill in the city of Piatra Neamţ, situated in Romania’s north-eastern Neamţ County.
The second monolith was discovered a few metres away from the Petrodava Dacian Fortress – a well-known archaeological landmark and the oldest historical monument in Piatra Neamt, believed to have been destroyed by the Romans.
Investigations on the Romania monolith are currently ongoing.
“We have started looking into the strange appearance of the monolith,” Neamt Culture and Heritage official Rocsana Josanu said. “It is on private property, but we still don’t know who the monolith’s owner is yet. It is in a protected area on an archaeological site.”
“Before installing something there, they needed permission from our institution, one that must then be approved by the Ministry of Culture,” she added.
Both the Utah monolith and Romania monolith appear to have been deliberately buried into the ground but the question of its origin and purpose still remains a mystery as no one has come forward to claim the silver pillars.
While many are intrigued by the second monolith’s appearance, some are questioning the credibility of the Romania monolith and asking if it’s just a copycat job.
At this point, we don’t know what to think.
Is it aliens? It is a movie promo? It is a marketing stunt? Or is it a copycat??
We’ll be here to keep you updated on the mystery monoliths.
