conclusion

published
In

notoriously

revealed

of
big
kite-shaped
rock

mega-structures
In

archaeologists

Last
year,
archaeologists
find
two
rock
engravings - one
In
Jordan,
THE
other
In
Saudi
Arabia - that
they
believe
represent
THE
the oldest
architectural
plans
For
these
desert
kites.
However,
these
types
of
megastructures
are
almost
unknown
In
Europe,
according to

Geersen
And

well preserved, like
