The saga of the monolith continues. Appeared a week ago in Utah, now it has been found in Romania, continuing one of the tastiest sagas of recent times. Approximately 4 meters tall and completely made of metal, the glowing cuboid had been found by a helicopter from the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, the local ranger who was monitoring a population of wild sheep.

Between the aliens and Kubrick

A vision that immediately sent the internet into ecstasy. The reference to 2001: A Space Odyssey it was easy to speculate what that monolith was and why it had been placed there, in the middle of nowhere, in a park with red rocks and a Martian atmosphere. From the obvious one that questions the ubiquitous aliens, we move on to a more realistic interpretation involving sculptor John McCracken.. McCracken is really famous for his minimalist and linear sculptures, for his monoliths in short, he died in 2011. A third hypothesis involves the world of cinema. It could be a shocking ad campaign, a viral created in points but it seems strange. Thanks to the global lockdown, cinemas are up for grabs and new releases are locked. More convincing to think of a series. Thanks to streaming, serial content is becoming more popular and such advertising could make a title stand out from the rest. The main suspect at this time is Westworld but there are no confirmations.

The landing in Romania

As the hypotheses alternate, the monolith continues its race. The one in Utah is currently being phased out. There are those who say of the locals upset by the too much fuss it has caused, with rivers of cars and private jets that have entered an otherwise immobile desert. There are those who suppose that it is part of the operation because, as we said, a similar structure appeared on the other side of the world. In Romania. was found on a hill near Lake Batca Doamnei, near Piatra Neamt, on the eastern border of the country. A spectacular location given that the monolith faces the Ceahlău massif, one of the seven natural wonders of the country, as well as a mountain considered sacred by the Dacians, the ancient local population.

Similar but not identical

On closer inspection, the structure is not exactly identical. The American had a smooth, shiny surface, this one looks less clean in design and rougher.. And here are other hypotheses. It could be the result, for example, of the joke of a joke that was run in a hurry by a blacksmith or the second chapter of a saga that is having the merit of distracting us in a not exactly happy period. To the next chapter.
