(Newswire.net — August 14, 2019) — One of the mysteries the world public recently discussed is a temple on Epstein’s private island, and what purpose does it really serve.
The main residence and complex occupy the northeast side of the island, and a couple of inns are in the northwest and southeast. However, there is a completely different type of building at the southwest point.
The cubic base of the building is painted in blue horizontal stripes and holds a large, yellow dome. The entrance consists of arched wooden doors with large black locks. There are also large windows on the sides and the entire background.
The front is surrounded by golden statues – one looks like Poseidon the Greek god of Sea and two birds are on the roof. Around the building are palm trees and a terrace with a maze motif. The building strongly resembles a temple.
Epstein was Jewish, so it is possible that he wanted his own private synagogue. However, the statues would be inappropriate in such a temple as the Old Testament forbids statues.
The cubic base and dome are reminiscent of Islamic architecture, but Poseidon would be an unusual choice for a mosque. A church, on the other hand, usually has crosses that are missing here.
One clue as to what the building actually is appeared in the recently published story “Associated Press” about Epstein’s life on the island. The text said that employees on the island were talking to each other that it was a music room with a grand piano and acoustic walls.
While this explanation is somewhat convincing, as Epstein is a classically trained pianist, the text suggests that it is more of a rumor than a known fact. In any case, it is not clear why Epstein would place a music room so far from all other structures on the island.
Some characteristics of the “temple” raise even more questions. When the Business Insider consulted with James Bot, a Chicago engineer, he immediately pointed to the wooden door.
“It’s styled like what you might see on a castle, with what appears to be a reinforcing lock bar across the face,” Bot said. “What makes it peculiar is that if you wanted to keep people out, the bar would be placed inside the building, [but the] locking bar appears to be placed on the outside … as if it were intended to lock people in,” he explained.
Downstream of the building is a smaller structure or entrance. It could theoretically offer another way of getting in and out of the larger building, which would imply there was a secret underground entrance.
This scenario has been accepted by online conspiracy theorists who believe Epstein erected this building as a hideout for child abuse. Many have accepted the hypothesis that a smaller structure hides an elevator shaft to underground chambers for meant for abuse.
