Mysterious artifacts hidden on the picturesque. Artifacts of antiquity, inexplicable by modern science. Petrified metal gear cylinders

During this time, a little more interesting material to a new post.

Three elongated skulls found in Antarctica.

Archaeologist Damian Waters and his team have discovered three elongated skulls in the Paille region of Antarctica, americanlivewire.com reports. The discovery came as a complete surprise to the world of archeology, as the skulls are the first human remains discovered in Antarctica, and it was believed that the continent had never been visited by humans prior to the modern era.

“We just can't believe it! We didn't just find human remains in Antarctica, we found elongated skulls! I have to pinch myself every time I wake up, I just can't believe it! This will force us to reconsider our view of the history of mankind as a whole!” M. Waters explains excitedly

As is known, earlier elongated skulls were found in Peru and Egypt.
But this discovery is absolutely incredible. It shows that there was contact thousands of years ago between civilizations in Africa, South America and Antarctica.

Giant footprint found in South Africa

It is located near the town of Mpalusi, close to the border of Swaziland. It is estimated that the time when this imprint was left is at least 200 million years. Geologists were surprised by this giant imprint legs about 120 cm long. This may be one of the best evidence that giants have existed on Earth since time immemorial. The fact that the track is now in the vertical plane is not surprising - this is due to a shift tectonic plates. Several similar formations are found in India and Australia.

Stone plate from Nepal

The Loladoff Plate is a stone dish that is over 12,000 years old. This artifact was found in Nepal. Images and clear lines carved into the surface of this flat stone have led many researchers to the idea of its extraterrestrial origin. After all, ancient people could not process stone so skillfully? In addition, the "plate" depicts a creature that is very reminiscent of an alien in his well-known image

Figurines from Ecuador

Figurines very reminiscent of astronauts found in Ecuador, their age is over 2000 years.

lizard people

Al-Ubeyd - an archaeological site in Iraq - a real gold mine for archaeologists and historians. It was found here a large number of objects of the El Obeid culture, which existed in southern Mesopotamia between 5900 and 4000 BC.

Some of the artifacts found are especially strange. For example, some figurines depict figures of creatures with heads similar to lizards. There were suggestions that these figurines are images of aliens who flew to Earth at that time. The true nature of the figurines remains a mystery.

Jade discs: a puzzle for archaeologists

IN Ancient China around 5000 BC, large jade stone discs were placed in the graves of the local nobility. Their purpose, as well as the method of manufacture, still remains a mystery to scientists, because jade is a very durable stone.

Sabu Disc: unsolved mystery Egyptian civilization.

The mystical ancient artifact, supposedly part of an unknown mechanism, was found by Egyptologist Walter Bryan in 1936 during an inspection of the tomb of Mastaba Sabu, who lived around 3100 - 3000 BC. The burial is located near the village of Saqqara.

The artifact is a regular round thin-walled stone plate made of meta-aleurite (metasilt in Western terminology), with three thin edges bent to the center and a small cylindrical sleeve in the middle. In places where the petals of the edge are bent towards the center, the circumference of the disk continues with a thin rim of circular cross section about a centimeter in diameter. The diameter is about 70cm, the shape of the circle is not perfect. This plate raises a number of questions, both about the incomprehensible purpose of such an object, and about the method by which it was made, since it has no analogues.

It is quite possible that Saba's disk had some important role five thousand years ago. However, at the moment, scientists cannot accurately determine its purpose and complex structure. The question remains open.

Petersburg archaeologists found in Kamchatka petrified metal gear cylinders, which turned out to be parts of a mechanism. Their age is 400 million years.

This is not the first time that ancient artifacts have been found in this region.
This find is encrusted in stone, which is quite understandable, since there are numerous volcanoes on the peninsula. Spectral analysis showed that the mechanism was made of metal parts, and all parts were dated 400 million years old!

The creations of human hands, immured in rocks, whose age is estimated at millions of years, were ignored until recently. After all, the finds violated the generally accepted fact of human evolution and even the formation of life on Earth. What artifacts are found in rocks, in which, according to the existing theory of the origin and development of man, there should be absolutely nothing?

600 million year old vase and 300 million year old bolt

A message about an extremely unusual find was published in a scientific journal in 1852. It was about a mysterious vessel about 12 cm high, two halves of which were discovered after an explosion in one of the quarries. This vase, with clear images of flowers, was inside rock, 600 million years old.

In the Kaluga region, a fragment of a stone was found, on a chip of which a bolt about 1 cm long was discovered, it was not clear how it got into the rock. The find was examined in the laboratories of leading Russian institutes, museums, and simply well-known experts. The assessment is unequivocal: the bolt got into the rock in the process of its solidification, it happened 300 - 320 million years ago.

Hammer from Texas

In 1934, an ancient hammer was discovered in Texas. Its length was 15 cm, diameter - 3 cm. During storage in the ground, the hammer handle turned into coal - still - the age of the rock in which it was discovered was estimated at 140 million years. Another very interesting fact is that the hammer is made of almost pure iron (97%) - even modern people do not produce this.

And the next item can be admired by anyone - just by going to India. Near the Qutub Minar tower in Delhi rises iron column 7.5 meters high.

The diameter of its base is 41.6 cm, it is slightly narrower towards the top - the upper diameter is about 30 cm. This column weighs 6.8 tons. Who, when and where (it was not made in Delhi) created it remains a mystery to this day.

But the most interesting thing is the composition of the column. It is 99.72% iron and only 0.28% is impurities. There is almost no corrosion on the black-blue surface of the megalith (only barely noticeable specks).
The strange thing is that the production of pure iron is very difficult and is not done in large volumes. And iron of such purity, even with modern equipment, is simply not realistic to produce.

Stone head from Guatemala

Half a century ago, deep in the jungles of Guatemala, searchers found a gigantic monument - stone head a man of great size. The face depicted on the statue had beautiful features, he had thin lips and a large nose, his gaze was directed to the sky. The searchers were very surprised by their find: the face had the obvious features of a white man, and was very different from any representatives of pre-Hispanic civilizations. South America. The find quickly attracted attention, but it was also quickly forgotten, and information about the statue disappeared from the pages of history.

Researchers believe that the facial features of the statue depicted a representative ancient civilization, which was much more developed than the locals before the arrival of the Spaniards. Some have also suggested that the head of the statue also had a torso. Unfortunately, we will probably never know for sure: the head was used as a training target for revolutionary troops and its features were destroyed almost without a trace.

However, the giant stone statue did exist and there is no reason to believe the photo is a fake. So where did she come from? Who created it? And for what?

Shigir idol

In 1890, on the eastern slope of the Middle Urals, northwest of Yekaterinburg, an idol was found in the Shigir peat bog, which later acquired the name of the large Shigir idol.

The Shigir idol is a completely unique archaeological site. It has no analogues, not only in the Urals, but also in the world! Shigir idol - the oldest wooden sculpture on our planet, made in the eighth millennium BC - in the Mesolithic era according to a carbon analysis made in 1997. This archaeological miracle has been preserved thanks to two factors. Firstly, the idol is made of durable larch. Secondly, the idol was found in a peat bog and peat, as a natural preservative, protected it from decomposition. Its height after reconstruction is 5.3 meters.

Stone atoms of antiquity?

There are five unusual carved stone balls in the collection of the Ashmolean Museum of Scotland. Archaeologists find it difficult to explain the purpose of these objects. They are made of various materials - sandstone and granite.

The age of the stones is dated approximately between 3000 and 2000 BC. In total, about 400 such artifacts were found in Scotland, but five of them, stored in the museum, are the most unusual. As you can see in the photo, strange symmetrical patterns are applied to the surface of the stones.

Most of the stones have the same diameter of 70 mm, with the exception of a few larger ones, which measure up to 114 mm in diameter. The number of bulges on the stones ranges from 4 to 33, with spiral patterns on the surface of some bulges.

The five stones of the Ashmolean Museum were formerly in the collection of Sir John Evans, who believed that they could have been used as projectiles for throwing weapons of antiquity. However, this explanation does not seem to be correct, since all the stones do not contain any damage, which would invariably happen if they were used during military skirmishes. And the very shape of the stones, the complexity of their manufacture suggest that it is pointless to use so much effort to make throwing devices.

Other versions suggest the use of these artifacts as cargo for fishing nets. Or as ritual objects, giving their owner the right to vote during various ceremonies. But all these versions do not explain why it was necessary to make stones of such a complex shape.

There is another possible explanation. Perhaps these stones are a schematic representation of the nuclei of atoms? Such an image of atoms is widely used in modern world. Is it possible that the one who made these artifacts had a deep knowledge of chemistry and could depict various atomic structures?

At the very least, the method of making these artifacts leaves no doubt that the master was well versed in geometry, having a good understanding of complex polyhedra. However, it is generally accepted that during the Neolithic people did not have such knowledge. Or is it not?

"Genetic Disk"

This disk contains several images of those processes that in ordinary life can only be seen under a microscope.

This disc, which is 6,000 years old, was found in the jungles of Colombia. The disk has a diameter of 27 centimeters and is made of lidite or radiolarite material, which is not inferior in hardness to granite. However, it is layered and difficult to process. Nevertheless, the entire process of the birth of a human being is depicted with pinpoint precision along the circumference of the disk - on both sides - from the device of the reproductive organs of a man and a woman, the moment of conception, intrauterine development of the fetus through all its stages - to the birth of a baby. Scientists have seen many of these processes with their own eyes relatively recently, with the help of appropriate instruments. And here authors of a disk possessed this knowledge in perfection.

On the disk, images of a man, a woman and a child are visible, the strange thing here is how the human head is depicted. If this is not a stylistic image, then what species do these people belong to?

By the way, in the same Colombia there is a little-known "Valley of statues" or Archaeological park San Agustin with hundreds stone statues depicting some unreal creatures. In my opinion, they are similar to the images on the "genetic disk":

Elias Sotomayor's Mysterious Finds: Ancient Globe and Others

A large treasure trove of ancient artifacts was discovered by an expedition led by Elias Sotomayor in 1984. In the Ecuadorian mountain range of La Mana, in a tunnel at a depth of more than ninety meters, 300 stone products were found.

The exact age of the finds this moment it is not possible to determine. However, it is already known that they do not belong to any of the known cultures of this region. The symbols and signs carved on the stone clearly belong to Sanskrit, but not to its later version, but rather to its earlier one. A number of scholars have identified this language as proto-Sanskrit.

Before the discovery of Sotomayor, Sanskrit was never associated with the American continent, rather, it was attributed to the cultures of Europe, Asia and northern Africa.

Among the finds was a pyramid with an eye and a stone cobra. The stone pyramid most of all resembles in its shape the pyramid in Giza. Thirteen rows of masonry are carved on the pyramid. In its upper part, the image of the "all-seeing eye" is applied. Thus, the pyramid found in La Mana is an exact image of the Masonic sign, known to most of mankind thanks to the US one dollar bill.

Unusual Items

Another striking find of the expedition of Sotomayor is the image of a king cobra made with great skill from stone. And it's not even the high level of art of ancient artisans. Everything is much more mysterious, because the king cobra is not found in America. Its habitat is wet rainforests India.

However, the quality of its image leaves no doubt that the artist personally saw this snake. Thus, either the object with the image of a snake applied to it, or its author, must have moved from Asia to America across the ocean to ancient times when, it is believed, no means existed for this.

Perhaps Sotomayor's third stunning find will be able to suggest the answer. In the tunnel of La Mana, one of the oldest globes on Earth, also made of stone, was discovered. On a far from ideal ball, for the manufacture of which, perhaps, the master simply spared no effort, but a rounded boulder, images of continents familiar from school times are applied.

But if many outlines of the continents differ little from modern ones, then the planet looks completely different from the coast of Southeast Asia towards America. Huge masses of land are depicted where now only the boundless sea splashes.

The Caribbean islands and the Florida peninsula are absent altogether. Just below the equator pacific ocean located giant island, approximately equal in size to modern Madagascar. Modern Japan enters the giant mainland, stretching to the shores of America and extending far to the south. It remains to be added that the La Mana find appears to be ancient map peace.

No less interesting are other findings of Sotomayor. In particular, a "service" of thirteen bowls was discovered. Twelve of them have a perfectly equal volume, and the thirteenth is much larger. If you fill 12 small bowls with liquid to the brim, and then drain them into a large one, then it will be filled exactly to the brim. All bowls are made of jade. The purity of their processing suggests that the ancients had a stone processing technology similar to a modern lathe.

So far, Sotomayor's findings raise more questions than they answer. But they once again confirm the thesis that our information about the history of the Earth and mankind is still very far from perfect.

Artifacts of Tertaria

50 years ago, in 1961, in the town of Tartaria (Romania), archaeologist Nicolae Vlassa discovered three unbaked clay tablets dated to the middle of the 6th millennium BC. The Tartarian tablets are the earliest written evidence, being at least a millennium older than the Sumerian writings in Mesopotamia.

The discovery remained practically unknown even after similar tablets were found in other areas of the Balkans: in Bulgaria (Karanovo, Grachanitsa), Greece (the shores of Lake Orestiada), Serbia, Hungary, Ukraine, Moldova.

Thus, over the past decades, a number of arguments have emerged in support of the hypothesis that pictographic writing appeared in southeastern Europe long before the Sumerian writing system in Mesopotamia.

Modern Japan is part of a gigantic continent that extends to the shores of America and extends far to the south. It remains to be added that the find at La Mana appears to be the oldest map of the world.

Artifacts of Tertaria

The world is full of strange and mysterious artifacts. Some are almost certainly hoaxes, others are connected real stories. In our review of 10 real-life artifacts, the origin of which scientists cannot explain even today.

1. Sumerian king list

During excavations in Iraq on the territory of ancient Sumer was found manuscript, which lists all the kings of this state. Researchers initially thought it was a common historical document, but then it turned out that many of the kings are mythological characters. Some rulers who should have been included in the list were missing from it. Others were credited with incredibly long reigns or mythical events associated with them, such as the Sumerian version of the Great Flood and the exploits of Gilgamesh.

2. Codex Gigas (or "Devil's Bible")

The most famous is the ancient manuscript "Code Gigas", better known as " devil's bible". Only 2 people can lift this book, made of 160 skins. Legend has it that the Codex Gigas was written by a monk who, after being sentenced to death, according to which the monk was to be walled up alive, made a deal with the devil. With the help The devil monk wrote the book in one night (moreover, the devil wrote a self-portrait. Strangely enough, the handwriting in the book is surprisingly clear and the same, as if it was really written within a short period of time. However, scientists believe that such a work would take from 5 years (if written without interruption) to 30. The manuscript contains seemingly incompatible texts: the complete Latin Vulgate Bible, the Antiquities of the Jews by Flavius Josephus, the collection of medical works of Hippocrates and Theophilus, the Chronicles of Bohemia by Cosmas of Prague, "Etymological Encyclopedia" by Isidore of Seville, exorcism rites, magic formulas and an illustration of the heavenly city.

3. Easter Island writing

Almost everyone knows about famous statues Easter Island, but there are other artifacts associated with this place, the riddle of which has not been solved so far. 24 wooden carved tablets were found that contain a system of symbols. These symbols are called rongorongo", and they are considered an ancient proto-writing form. To date, they have not been able to decipher.

Typically, archaeologists argue that religion, the building of temples, and the development of complex rituals are a by-product of human settlement. This belief was shaken by a discovery in the Urfa plain in southeastern Turkey. Göbekli Tepe temple. Its ruins may be the oldest organized place worship from known to man. The ruins of Göbekli Tepe date back to 9500 BC, meaning the temple was built 5000 years before Stonehenge.

In regions that were once in the sphere of influence of the Roman Empire - from Wales to mediterranean sea- find small strange objects that are named " dodecahedrons". They are hollow stone or bronze objects, 4-12 centimeters in diameter with 12 flat pentagonal faces and holes of various sizes on each side. Small handles protrude from each corner. Twenty-seven theories have been put forward as to what it is, but none of which could not be proven.

Around 6,000 have been found in rivers and swamps throughout Ireland. mysterious artifacts, which became known as Fulachtai Fia. In the UK, where they are also found, they are called " Burnt mounds". Fulacht fiadh - a mound of soil and stone in the shape of a horseshoe, in the center of which a trough filled with water is dug. Fulachtai Fia, as a rule, are found singly, but sometimes in groups of 2-6. At the same time, there is always a source of water nearby. Why they were built remains a mystery.

7. Big Zayatsky Labyrinth, Russia

Bolshoy Zayatsky Island, which is part of the Solovetsky archipelago in northern Russia, hides another mystery. Back in 3000 BC. not only villages and places of worship were built here, but also irrigation systems. But the most mysterious objects on the island - spiral labyrinths, the largest of which has a diameter of 24 meters. The structures are built from two rows of boulders overgrown with vegetation. What they were used for is unknown.

8. Witch bottles, Europe and the USA

In 2014, archaeologists excavating the site of an ancient battle in Nottinghamshire made a strange discovery: they found a 15-centimeter " witch bottle". Similar vessels were used in Europe and America for black witchcraft in the 1600s - 1700s. They were usually made of ceramic or glass. In total, about 200 such objects were found, and they often contained the remains of needles, nails, nails , hair, and even urine.Witch bottles are believed to have been used to protect the wearer from evil spells and the harmful effects of witches.

9 Ubaid Lizard Figurines, Iraq

Strange things are found in Iraq Ubaid figurines. They depict lizard-like and snake-like people in various poses. All figurines have abnormally elongated heads and almond-shaped eyes. Many of these figurines are found in human burials and are therefore believed to mark some form of status.

10 Rat King

Several museums around the world contain strange once-living exhibits of a legendary beast from the Middle Ages called " rat king". The rat king is formed when several rats intertwine or grow together with their tails. As a result, a kind of "nest" of rats appears, the muzzles of which are directed outward, and in the center a knot of tails. The largest of these artifacts contains 32 rats. Today, such mummified objects are found, but not a single living such anomaly has been found.

Scientists sometimes work on solving many global problems of mankind for decades. We have collected - from medicine to space. Perhaps these solutions will become the technologies of the future.

According to the interpretation of some fundamentalists, the Bible says that God created Adam and Eve several thousand years ago. Science reports that this is just fiction, and that man is a few million years old, and civilizations are tens of thousands of years old. However, could it be that traditional science is as wrong as bible stories? There is ample archaeological evidence that the history of life on Earth may be very different from what we are told today by geological and anthropological texts.

Consider the following amazing finds:

Corrugated Spheres

For the past few decades, miners in South Africa have been digging up mysterious metal balls. These balls of unknown origin are about an inch in diameter, and some of them are engraved with three parallel lines running along the axis of the object. Two types of balls have been found: one consists of a hard bluish metal with white spots, while the other is emptied from the inside and filled with a white spongy substance. Interestingly, the stone in which they were found belongs to the Precambrian period and dates back 2.8 billion years! Who made these spheres and why remains a mystery.

Artifact Koso

While searching for minerals in the mountains of California near Olancha in the winter of 1961, Wallace Lane, Virginia Maxey, and Mike Mikesell found a rock that they thought was a geode - a nice addition to their store. precious stones. However, after cutting the stone, Mikesell found an object inside that looked like white porcelain. At its center was a shaft of shiny metal. The experts concluded that if it was a geode, it would have taken approximately 500,000 years to form, but the object inside was clearly a piece of human production.

Further examination determined that the porcelain was surrounded by a hexagonal body, and X-rays revealed a tiny spring at one end, similar to a spark plug. As you might have guessed, this artifact is surrounded by some controversy. Some argue that the object was not inside the geode, but was covered in hardened clay.

The find itself was identified by experts as a spark plug from the 1920s. Unfortunately, Koso's artifact has been lost and cannot be thoroughly studied. Is there a natural explanation for this phenomenon? Was it found, as the discoverer claimed, inside the geode? If this is true, how could a 1920s-era spark plug get inside a stone that is 500,000 years old?

Strange metal objects

Sixty-five million years ago there were no humans, let alone anyone who could work with metal. In that case, how does science explain semi-oval metal pipes dug in France from Cretaceous chalk?

In 1885, when a piece of coal was broken, a metal cube was discovered, clearly processed by a craftsman. In 1912, power station workers broke a large piece of coal from which an iron pot fell out. A nail was found in a sandstone block from the Mesozoic era. There are many more such anomalies. How can these findings be explained? There are several options:

Intelligent people existed much earlier than we think
-In our history there is no data about other intelligent beings and civilizations that existed on our Earth
-Our dating methods are completely inaccurate and these rocks, charcoal and fossils are forming much faster than we think today.

In any case, these examples - and there are many more - should prompt all curious and open-minded scientists to reexamine and rethink the history of life on Earth.

Footprint on granite

This fossil trace was found in a seam of coal in Fisher Canyon, Nevada. According to estimates, the age of this coal is 15 million years!

And lest you think that this is a fossil of some animal, the shape of which resembles the sole of a modern boot, examination of the footprint under a microscope revealed clearly visible traces of a double seam line along the perimeter of the form. The footprint is about a size 13 and the right side of the heel appears to be more worn than the left.

How did the imprint of modern shoes 15 million years ago end up on a substance that later became coal? There are several options:

The trail was left recently and coal is not formed for millions of years (which science does not agree), or ...
-Fifteen million years ago there were people (or something like people about whom we have no historical data) walking around in shoes, or ...
-The time travelers traveled back in time and inadvertently left a trail, or...
-This is a well thought out prank.

ancient footprint

Today, such footprints can be seen on any beach or muddy ground. But this footprint - clearly anatomically similar to that of a modern human - is frozen in stone, which is estimated to be about 290 million years old.

The discovery was made in 1987 in New Mexico by paleontologist Jerry McDonald. He also found traces of birds and animals, but found it difficult to explain how this modern trace appeared on the Permian rock, which, according to experts, is 290-248 million years old. According to modern scientific thinking, it was formed long before humans (or even birds and dinosaurs) appeared on this planet.

A 1992 Smithsonian Magazine article on the find noted that paleontologists refer to such anomalies as "problematica". In fact, for scientists they are big problems.

This is the white crow theory: all you have to do to prove that not all ravens are black is just to find one white one.

In the same way, to challenge the history of modern man (or perhaps our way of estimating the age of rock strata), we need to find a fossil like this. However, scientists simply shelve such things, call them “problematica” and move on with their unyielding beliefs because reality is too inconvenient.

Is this the right science?

Ancient springs, screws and metal

They are similar to the items that can be found in the scrap box in any workshop.

Obviously, these artifacts were made by someone. However, this set of springs, loops, spirals and other metal objects was found in layers of sedimentary rocks that are one hundred thousand years old! At that time, foundries were not very common.

Thousands of these things - some as small as a thousandth of an inch! - were discovered by gold miners in Ural mountains Russia in the 1990s. Excavated from 3 to 40 feet deep in layers of earth dating back to the Upper Pleistocene period, these mysterious objects may have been created some 20,000 to 100,000 years ago.

Could they be proof of the existence of a long-lost but advanced civilization?

Metal rod in stone

How to explain the fact that the stone was formed around a mysterious metal rod?

Inside the stone collector Gillyn Wang found in Chinese mountains The solid black stone mazong contained a metal rod of unknown origin for unknown reasons.

The rod is threaded like a screw, indicating that the item was made, but the fact that it has been in the ground long enough for solid rock to form around it means that it must be millions of years old.

There were suggestions that the stone is a meteorite that fell to Earth from space, that is, the artifact may be of alien origin.

It is noteworthy that this is not the only case of finding metal screws in hard rocks; there are many other examples:

In the early 2000s, a strange stone was found on the outskirts of Moscow, inside of which were two objects similar to screws.
-X-ray of another stone found in Russia found eight screws in it!

Williams fork

A man named John Williams said he found the artifact while walking through the remote countryside. He was wearing shorts, and as he passed through the bushes, he looked down to see if he had scratched his legs. It was then that he noticed a strange stone.

The stone itself is ordinary - despite the fact that some manufactured thing is built into it. Whatever it is, it has three metal prongs sticking out of it, like it's some kind of fork.

The location where Williams found the artifact was, he said, “at least 25 feet from the nearest road (which was muddy and barely visible), no urban areas, industrial complexes, power plants, nuclear power plants, airports, or military operations (of which I would know).

The stone is composed of natural quartz and feldspar granite, and according to geology, such stones do not take decades to form, which would be required if the anomalous item were made. modern man. According to Williams, the stone was about a hundred thousand years old.

Who in those days could make such an object?

Aluminum artifact from Aiud

This five-pound, eight-inch long piece of solid, nearly pure aluminum would have been found in Romania in 1974. Workers digging a trench along the Mures River found several mastodon bones and this mysterious object, which still baffles scientists.

Apparently manufactured and not naturally occurring, the artifact was sent for analysis, which found the item to be 89 percent aluminum with traces of copper, zinc, lead, cadmium, nickel, and other elements. In this form, aluminum does not exist in nature. It must have been manufactured, but such aluminum was not produced until the 1800s.

If the artifact is of the same age as the bones of the mastodon, this means that it is at least 11 thousand years old, because it was then that the last representatives of the mastodons died out. Analysis of the oxidized layer that covered the artifact determined that it is 300-400 years old - that is, it was created much earlier than the aluminum processing process was invented.

So who made this item? And what was it used for? There are those who immediately suggested the alien origin of the artifact ... however, the facts are still unknown.

It is strange (or maybe not) that the mysterious item was hidden somewhere and today it is not available for public viewing or further research.

Piri Reis Map

This map, rediscovered in a Turkish museum in 1929, is a mystery not only because of its amazing accuracy, but also because of what it depicts.

Drawn on the skin of a gazelle, the Piri Reis map is the only remaining part of the larger map. It was compiled in the 1500s, according to the inscription on the map itself, from other maps of the three hundredth year. But how is this possible if the map shows:

South America exactly located in relation to Africa
-Western coasts of North Africa and Europe, and East Coast Brazil
Most striking is the partially visible continent far to the South, where we know Antarctica is, although it wasn't discovered until 1820. Even more mysterious is that it is depicted in detail and without ice, although this land mass has been covered with ice for at least six thousand years.

Today, this artifact is also not available for public viewing.

petrified hammer

Near the city of London, Texas, in 1936, the head and part of the hammer handle were found.

The discovery was made by Mr. and Mrs. Khan near Red Bay when they noticed a piece of wood sticking out of a stone. In 1947, their son smashed the stone, revealing the head of a hammer inside.

For archaeologists, this tool presents a difficult task: the calcareous rock in which the artifact is located is estimated to be 110-115 million years old. The wooden handle is petrified, like an ancient petrified tree, and the hammer head, made of whole iron, relatively modern type.

The only possible scientific explanation came from John Cole, a researcher at the National Center for Science Education:

In 1985, the scientist wrote:

“The stone is real, and for someone unfamiliar with the geological process, it looks impressive. How could modern artifact stuck in Ordovician stone? The answer is that the stone does not belong to the Ordovician period. Minerals in solution can solidify around an object that has fallen into the solution, fallen into a crevice, or simply left on the ground, if the source rock (in this case, reportedly Ordovician) is chemically soluble.

In other words, the dissolved parts of the rock solidified around the modern hammer, which may be a miner's hammer from the 1800s.

And what do you think? A modern hammer...or an ancient civilization's hammer?

Behind last hundred years, many artifacts have been discovered that cause at least bewilderment. In other words, these are those objects that, by their existence, do not fit into any of the accepted general theories of the origin of human life on Earth and the entire earthly history as a whole.

Based on biblical sources, you can find out that God created man in his own image just a few thousand years ago. According to orthodox science, the age of a person (say, erectus - erectus man) can be dated no deeper than 2 million years, and the beginning of the formation of the most ancient civilization is only tens of thousands of years old.

But could it be that the Bible and science are wrong, and the age of civilizations is much deeper in the centuries than it seems? There are many archaeological finds that indicate that the development of life on the blue planet may not be as we know it. Here are some artifacts ready to break the usual pattern of opinions.

1. Spheres of the sphere.

Over the past years, miners in South Africa have raised strange spheres made of metal from the bowels of the earth. The origin of objects several centimeters in diameter is completely unknown. And what is curious, one of the balls has an engraving of three grooves parallel to each other, encircling the entire ball.

The amazing artefact balls can be classified into two varieties: some are made of metal interspersed with white, others are hollowed out inside and filled with a spongy white composition.

How it was cast and what purpose is unclear. But what irritates some scientists even more is the date of origin - 2.8 billion years! Erectus, for example, learned how to fry food only 1.8 million years ago. It is difficult to imagine who could make spheres during the Precambrian period (rock layers speak about this). - unless, of course, this is the terrible weapon of the mythical aliens who destroyed the dinosaurs.

By the way, criticism about these areas is also curious. Some believe that it is clearly made by an intelligent being. But others claim the natural origin of these unwanted artifacts. By the way, it is precisely such finds that are also called “forbidden archeology” - such objects do not fit into the framework of the outlined theories about the origin of man.

2. Incredible stone balls of Costa Rica.

As you can see more than once, our ancestors liked spherical shapes. So, pushing through the impenetrable thickets of Costa Rica in 1930, which was justified by the development of the territory, they unexpectedly stumbled upon the ideal roundness of the balls.

The sizes of spherically flat objects vary, from giant ones weighing 16 tons, to small ones, the size of a tennis ball. Dozens of stone balls of Costa Rica lay as if the giants with children had arranged a bowling game here.

The balls turned from a single piece of stone are certainly made by a reasonable, able to think creature, which was in the not so distant past, but the mystery of the unknown is present - who, why, and with what help is unknown. How did the masters of antiquity manage to achieve the perfect circle without the name of a bunch of necessary gadgets?

3. Incredible fossils.

Archeology, paleontology, very important sciences that reveal to us the secret of the life of the planet in the past. However, sometimes the bowels of the earth give out something amazing. Fossils - as each of us knows, this formation occurred thousands and millions of years ago, and it is pointless to object to this, but it is also difficult to believe in the finds stuck in them.

Here, for example, is a fossilized human palm print found in limestone, whose age

is about 110 million years old. The question is, who could imprint his imprint on the Walk of Fame, when there was no human yet? Here is another case from the same category of forbidden archeology: an "abnormal" find of a fossilized human hand was discovered in Bogota (Colombia).

The rock formation, which “fixed” the remains for centuries, dates back to 100-130 million years - an unthinkable date, since then a person could not yet live. This is really an artifact from the category of "forbidden archeology."

4. Metal objects before the Bronze Age.

A piece of pipe 65 million years old is kept in a private collection. According to all theories, man is a young creature on earth, and, in theory, could not process metal. But then who made the flattened metal pipes they dug up in France?

And in 1912, shop workers saw a metal pot fall out of broken coal. But they also found nails in sandstone from the Mesozoic era.

However, there are many other anomalies of this kind, which it is not clear how to deal with, since they clearly fall out of the general idea of human development.

5. Disks of the Dropa tribe, ordinary stones or an alien artifact.

The history of the Drop disks is very, very mysterious (also known as Dzopa, who calls Dropas), their origin is unknown, and often the very existence is denied for some reason despite the facts.

Each disk, 30 cm in diameter, has two grooves radiating towards the edges in the form of a double helix.

Hieroglyphs are applied inside the grooves, as a kind of marking carrying the source of encoded information. According to various sources, at least 716 stone discs were found, about 12,000 years old.

The discovery of Dropa stone disks occurred in 1938 and belongs to a research expedition led by Dr. Chi Pu Tei in Bayan-Kara-Ula, a place lying between Tibet and China. It is believed that the disks belonged to an incredibly ancient and grandiosely developed civilization.

From conversations with local residents it is known that earlier stone discs belonged to the ancestors of the Dropa tribe - which were aliens from distant star worlds! According to legend, the discs contain unique recordings that could be played back if there was a “phonograph” - the discs are unusually similar to small vinyl records.

According to the legends of the tribe, about 10 - 12 thousand years ago, an alien ship made an emergency landing in these places - (the event successfully echoes the Flood). So, the ancestors of the present Dropa tribe arrived on this ship. And the stone discs are all that survived from those people.

Briefly speaking about this find, the following can be noted; disks were found in rocky caves-burials, in which the remains of small skeletons lay, whose growth during life did not exceed 130 centimeters. big heads, fragile thinned bones - all those signs that are formed from long stay in weightlessness.

6. Ica stones.

From the beginning of the 1930s, the father of Dr. Javier Cabrera, studying the burials of the Incas, found stones with engravings on the sides in the tombs (now there are over 50 thousand stones and boulders). Dr. Cabrera, continued his father's hobby and by cataloging andesite artifacts, he collected a huge collection of amazing objects of distant antiquity. The age of the finds is estimated to be between 500 and 1500 years old, and later they became known as the “Ica stones”.

Quite amusing and curious stones, it must be said, were found near the Peruvian town of Iki, small, weighing 15-20 grams, large, half a ton in weight - on some there are paintings of erotica, the sides of others are decorated with idols. On the third, the absolutely impossible is depicted at all - a clearly traced battle between a man and dinosaurs. It is completely incomprehensible how the ancients found out about brontosaurs and stegosaurs in order to draw animals that died out hundreds of millions of years ago so clearly.

It's scary to even think about how it relates to other images - these are heart operations, as well as the practice of transplantology. Agree, such finds are shocking, and of course contradict the modern chronology of events, or rather, such pictures completely destroy the entire chronological chain of earth history. This can be explained by one, listen to the opinion of Professor of Medicine Cabrera, who says that a powerful and developed culture once lived on Earth.

Doctor's pebbles, and over a decade the collection has grown to 11 thousand copies, have not received recognition, and are considered a modern fake, but this does not apply to all copies, some actually came from ancient times. And yet, the pictures on them do not fit into the framework of the current theories about the age and development of civilizations on Earth, which means that they also fly into the “forbidden archeology” basket.

By the way, Dr. Cabrera is a descendant of Don Jeronimo Luis de Cabrera and Toledo, the Spanish conquistador and founder of the city of Ica in 1563. It was M.D. Cabrera who made the artefacts widely known.

7. Millennial Ford spark plug.

Of course, the internal combustion engine is not a new device. Although when in the California mountains in 1961, Wallace Lane, Maxey and Mike Mikesell stumbled upon an unusual stone, they did not think that the artifact lying inside was about 500,000 years old. At first it was an ordinary beautiful stone, for sale in a store.

This was later, something made of porcelain was found inside, in the center of which was a tube of light metal. It is not clear with the help of what technology this could have been done about half a million years ago. But the experts saw one more thing - some strange formation in the form of a knot.

As further work with the artifact, including X-ray examination, revealed, a small spring is located at the end of the found riddle. Those who have studied this find say that it is very similar to a spark plug! - and this is a little thing which counted half a million years.

However, the investigation conducted by Pierre Stromberg and Paul Heinrich, with the help of American spark plug collectors, can be traced back to the 1920s. Allegedly very similar ones were used in Ford Model T and Model A engines, made of stainless metal. So, in principle, this artifact can be considered critical in terms of age and origin. Although it is surprising how she managed to petrify in such a short time of 40 years?

8 Antikythera Mechanism

This artifact, which caused bewilderment, was recovered by divers from the shipwreck of a ship in 1901 off the coast of Antikythera, a place lies to the north-west of Crete. Divers, mining bronze figurines, and looking for a different cargo of the ship, found an unknown mechanism covered with moldy corrosion with a bunch of gears - which was called Antikythera.

As it was possible to determine, an ancient device with many gears and wheels was made from 100 to 200 years before the birth of Christ. At first, experts decided that this was some kind of astrolabe instrument. But as the x-ray study showed, the mechanism turned out to be more complicated than it was thought - the device contained a system of differential gears.

But as history shows, at that time such solutions did not exist, they appeared only 1400 years later! So it remains a mystery who calculated this mechanism, who could make such a thin instrument about 2,000 years ago. However, it can be assumed that once it was quite a common technology for manufacturing complex devices, it was just forgotten about it once, and then rediscovered.

9. An ancient battery from Baghdad.

Visible in the photograph amazing artifact quite ancient - this is a battery 2 years old

000 years! This curious artifact was found on the ruins of a Parthian village - it is believed that the battery dates back to 226 - 248 BC. Why a battery was needed there and what was connected to it is unknown, but a tall vessel made of clay had a copper cylinder and a rod of oxidized iron inside.

As the experts who studied the find concluded, in order to obtain an electric current, it was necessary to fill a vessel with an acidic or alkaline liquid - and here, please, electricity is ready. By the way, there is nothing surprising in this battery; according to experts, it was most likely used for galvanic work with gold. Maybe it was so, as experts say, but then how could this knowledge be lost for a long 1800 years?

10. Ancient plane or toy?

Yes, looking through the artifacts from the “forbidden archeology” section, one never ceases to wonder how developed the civilizations of antiquity were - for example, the Sumerians owned the world 6,000 years ago - and where, and most importantly how, these technologies important for the development of life were forgotten.

See artifacts from the ancient Egyptian civilization and Central America, they strangely resemble the planes familiar to us. It is possible that only a wooden toy was found in an Egyptian tomb in 1898, but it painfully resembles an airplane with wings and a fuselage. In addition, according to experts, the object has a good aerodynamic shape, and is likely to be able to stay in the air and fly.

And if the issue with the Egyptian "Saqqara bird" is quite controversial and criticized, then a small artifact from America made of gold about 1000 years ago can easily be mistaken for a desktop model of an airplane - or, for example, a space shuttle. The object is so carefully and carefully worked out that there is even a pilot's seat on an ancient plane.

Bauble of an ancient civilization, or model real aircraft from ancient times, how can one comment on such finds? - Knowledgeable people speak simply; intelligent beings lived on Earth much earlier than we think about it. Ufologists offer a version with an extraterrestrial civilization that allegedly came to Earth and gave people many technical knowledge. Did our ancestors really possess the greatest secrets and knowledge, which, under the influence of a mysterious factor, were forgotten / erased from the memory of mankind?
