There are no pyramids in the Province of Shensi", I was told. My informer was a member of the Embassy Of The People's Republic of China. While passing through Wellington, on one of my flying duties, I had decided to make a phone-call to the Embassy, to enquire about the existence of several large pyramids discovered in this area of north central China. "There are some mounds of ruins, probably burial mounds, in the area, but no pyramids", continued the Embassy official, "we do not know of any pyramids in China." This was very strange, I thought, because I had in my posses sion at the time a copy of a United States Airforce survey map, produced from satellite photographs of this very area, which clearly indicated the positions of at least sixteen pyramids. Besides this I had a copy of a photograpb of the largest one taken from a U.S. Army DC3 in 1947. Although I informed the official of this, and tried to press the point, he still continued to deny meir existence. A few days before, I had mentioned the pyramids during a TV interview, and had been informed ,that several members of the public had contacted the Embassy, and received the same answer. Why the denial? Was it conceivable that government offi cials were not aware of something of such historical importance in their own country? Surely not. In 1937 the long march, lead by Mao Tse-tung, ended in the north Shensi Province, and ,the Chinese Communists controlled the whole region until 1947. From ,there they eventually took over all China. The Shej1Si pyramids are massive constructi.ons. To remain unaware of them would be like losing an elephant in 8J city back-yard The only answer was that the Chinese government did not want ,the western world to know too much about these gigantic structures until their scientists had completed their own investigations. The secrets to be unravelled, by comparing these pyramids with others around the world, could be so important that the authori ties were doing their best to damp down interest in them. Our own govenunents would no doubt do the same, if they were on our territory, but that did not help me much. Possibly they h.ad already discovered the mathematical relationships that I had. The only way to find out, 1 realised was to write the Ambassador a Jetter, explaining why ,1 required the information, and enclosing copies of my maps and photographs. The fol lowing is the letter 1 sent, and 'the reply from the Cultural Office of the Embassy.
