I've followed this project as closely as I can over the years, it was never a popular topic on reddit, which was my main source of open conversation on the topic, so all I have to go on are the videos posted by Semir Osmanagić or from visitors to the site(s) and my own conclusions. What are your thoughts? favorite area uncovered so far? things that grind your gears about it all?

Imagine burying a pyramid, then again imagine building one in the first place
its definitely strange to bury something that would take so much effort to build in the first place, as well as burying it in a way that makes for a lot more extra work (the "dry walls" inside the tunnels that were back-filled) but then again people contributed these sites to their gods, so the idea of a society losing faith in their god and rather than destroy the "monuments" to their gods, they buried them as maybe a "just in case its true" type scenario. but then again thats why I feel its important that this site specifically is allowed to continue, just in case they find some sort of record room, or something even stranger.
I don't see why you wouldn't explore, do they plan to just keep them buried forever, they will eventually disappear over the millennia. There's no good reason not to see what's really going on
agreed, shit is nuts. I guess other countries have "learned" from the struggles of egypt and all the hoops they have to jump through to keep stuff secret and just decide its easier to just call it a hill, or not allow excavation, or whatever lame excuse they decide to give.
