До середины ХХ века никто из европейских археологов не вел раскопки на Мальдивах, и эта страна оставалась terra incognita даже для своих собственных жителей. Но норвежский исследователь Тур Хейердал (1914–2002) начинает новое приключение — он проникает в джунгли пустынного атолла Гааф-Ган и открывает руины ступенчатой, ориентированной по солнцу каменной пирамиды, стены которой покрыты солярными символами. Как она здесь оказалась? Кто ее построил? Кто жил на острове в незапамятные времена? Эти и другие ответы в книге бесстрашного путешественника "Мальдивская загадка".
