| Massive Stone Wall, Believed By Some To Be An Ancient Megastructure, Discovered in Montana, USA | |
| 2025-04-06 | |
| [UnofficialNetworks] The Sage Wall in Montana, a possible ancient stone structure, could challenge historical timelines, suggesting advanced engineering and astronomical knowledge by prehistoric North American civilizations. Deep in Montana’s remote wilderness lies the Sage Wall, a stunning megalithic structure composed of massive granite blocks intricately stacked in a straight line extending 275 feet (84 meters). Reaching up to 25 feet (8 meters) high, with some blocks weighing 91 tons, it is believed that the wall continues an additional 15 feet underground. This unique formation appears to have precise, interlocking stones resembling ancient masonry found worldwide. Despite its remarkable features, the Sage Wall remained hidden for centuries, covered by dense foliage on private land owned by Christopher Borton and Linda Welsh. Its discovery occurred when the landowners cleared their heavily forested property, revealing the wall and sparking scientific interest. The site drew comparisons to megalithic structures in Peru, Egypt, and other regions due to its angular formations and mysterious knobs on the stones, which are common in ancient constructions globally. The wall’s construction raises numerous questions about the people who built it. The precision and scale of the stonework indicate a deep understanding of mathematics and astronomy, leading some experts to speculate that the Sage Wall might have served multiple purposes. It could have been a ceremonial site, a defensive structure, or even an astronomical observatory designed to track celestial events. The alignment of certain stones with solstices and equinoxes supports the latter theory, hinting at a complex understanding of the cosmos by its builders. The discovery of the Sage Wall is challenging the conventional timeline of human activity and architectural development in the region. Previously, such advanced construction techniques were not believed to exist in North America during this period. This site could potentially lead to a reevaluation of the technological and cultural advancements of prehistoric civilizations on the continent, offering a new perspective on the ingenuity and sophistication of ancient peoples. Michael Collins, from the YouTube channel Wandering Wolf, and Dr. Samir Osmanagich, known for his work on the Bosnian Pyramid, have studied the site. They noted the wall’s magnetic properties and its alignment with the winter solstice, suggesting it might be man-made and predating the last Ice Age. However, some experts argue it is a natural formation resulting from volcanic and tectonic activities. Regardless of its origins, the Sage Wall remains a fascinating site, inviting further exploration and study.

| #14 In Montana, tall radiant pines All rise up from the ground in straight lines! Did the aliens teach Ancient trees how to reach For the stars? [and the Sun shyly shines] |

| #13 similar formations exist elsewhere in the world although the Montana stone wall is exceptional |

| #12 I've been there. If you climb over to the back side and up the valley a bit, it looks pretty natural. |

| #11 its not out of place, you see small ones deep in the sawtooth mtns |

| #10 The odds are actually 1:180 if totally random. Much less than that based on local factors like general orientation of tectonic features, potentially. Not saying high odds, but not astronomically low necessarily either. YMMV. |

| #8 Orthogonal: up (or down) the Z axis on an X-Y plane. It’s my favourite axis. :-) |

| #6 Looking at the video, the stones seem to be unusually orthogonal for igneous rock. I've seen columnar joints in Madeira and Ireland, and lotsa photographs, but it's been a long time since I studied geology. I did have to look up 'orthogonal' to be sure my memory hadn't failed again. It's a 90-degree orientation. |

| #5 Sorry...my take is that it's not a natural formation. Single outcropping aligned with the Winter Solstice. What are the odds? Perfectly circular and geometric carvings in the granite with no hint of intrusion zones responsible if it were naturally occurring. My NW Wyoming field area in grad school had many areas of Andesite (Granite-like) arrayed in columnar jointing - like Devil's Tower but nothing like this. Assuming man-made, you could get a more accurate date in that the North Pole is not fixed over time. You could posit a timeline using computer modelling to determine when this site accurately pointed toward the Solstice. This would be done based on the work by Carlotto (2020) and Hapgood (1960's). They did it on ancient temple sites usually aligned to the cardinal axis but might be applicable here. Worth a look... https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/af4e/6caa618bf47c67c0f7400aab2d5044880fa7.pdf |

| #2 However, some experts argue it is a natural formation resulting from volcanic and tectonic activities. Bingo. |
