The mysterious Utah monolith that had recently disappeared. But it looks like another has popped up across the world in Romania, according to multiple reports.

What’s going on?

A team of biologists in a helicopter above the Utah wilderness noticed a mysterious monolith about one week ago. The 10- to 12-feet steel monolith went missing on Friday, though.

Hundreds of tourists visited the location over the last week, according to the Deseret News. It wasn’t until Saturday when people noticed the monolith was missing.

Now, reports have surfaced that a monolith has popped up in Romania. The Daily Mail, LAD Bible and Euro Weekly all reported on the discovery Monday morning.

Of course, only international news outlets have reported about the outlet at this time. We’ll see what happens when other news outlets, like CNN or the New York Times, look into it.

It’s now in Romania?

One side of the monolith faces Mount Ceahlau, which is locally called the Holy Mountain.  

Neamt Culture and Heritage official Rocsana Josanu told Euro Weekly an investigation into the monolith has begun.

“We have started looking into the strange appearance of the monolith. It is on private property, but we still don’t know who the monolith’s owner is yet. It is in a protected area on an archaeological site. Before installing something there, they needed permission from our institution, one that must then be approved by the Ministry of Culture.”
