The one shown in the photo is not Gavea, it is Sao Conrado neighborhood. And there is no such a beach as mentioned in the caption of the photo. (Praia da Gavea) By Max Birsa — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2800:355:2:899:EC54:659:15ED:1068 (talk) 21:35, 11 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

An enigmatic giant phenician head

[edit]

On the top of the mountain of Pedra da Gavea ( 852 metres ) we can see a giant sculpture of an european head with a beard carved on the rockstone. That sculpture is visible many kilometres around.

A phenician sentence is carved on the side of the summit of Pedra da Gavea. The phenician words are : Badezir Phenician of Tyro son of JethBaal.

Two phenician kings lived in the 9th century before Christ : Badezir = Badezor = Baal Ezer II and his father JethBaal = EthBaal.
