Triangular Hillfort: The First-Century Lithuanian Enigma Unveiled

Nestled on the left bank of the Vastapos River, this Lithuanian relic, dating back to the first century AD, presents an enigma. This cryptic artifact sports an unusual triangular layout: a 1-meter high wall enclosing a 19-meter-wide base, a 15-meter length, and a 2.3-meter deep moat, measuring 24 meters in length. The triangle itself spans 30 meters in width and 15 meters in length, with its point jutting north-east. Each side features 4-meter wide terraces, sinking 2.25 meters below the wall. The Historical Institute, in their 1970 archaeological digs, have remained tight-lipped about the identity of the hillfort’s fabricators and the purpose of this hidden secret.
