Artifacts. Technological artifacts of antiquity Mysterious artifacts description

Since the time of Darwin, science has more or less managed to fit into a logical framework and explain most evolutionary processes that took place. Archaeologists, biologists, and many other ...ologists agree and are confident that already 400 - 250 thousand years ago the rudiments of the current society flourished on our planet. But archeology, you know, is such an unpredictable science, no, no, and it keeps throwing up new finds that do not fit into the generally accepted model neatly put together by scientists. We present to you the 15 most mysterious artifacts that made scientific world think about the correctness of existing theories.

1. Spheres from Klerksdorp.

According to rough estimates, these mysterious artifacts are about 3 billion years old. They are disc-shaped and spherical objects. Corrugated balls are found in two types: some are made of bluish metal, monolithic, interspersed with white matter, others, on the contrary, are hollow, and the cavity is filled with white spongy material. The exact number of spheres is unknown to anyone, since miners with help still continue to extract them from the rock near the city of Klerksdorp, located in South Africa.

2 . Stones Drop.

In the Bayan-Kara-Ula mountains, which are located in China, a unique find was made, the age of which is 10 - 12 thousand years. Drop stones, numbering in the hundreds, resemble gramophone records. These are stone discs with a hole in the middle and a spiral engraving applied to the surface. Some scientists are inclined to believe that the disks serve as carriers of information about extraterrestrial civilization.


In 1901 the Aegean Sea opened scientists secret sunken Roman ship. Among other surviving antiquities, a mysterious mechanical artifact was found that was made about 2,000 years ago. Scientists managed to recreate a complex and innovative invention for that time. The Antikythera mechanism was used by the Romans for astronomical calculations. Interestingly, the differential gear used in it was invented only in the 16th century, and the skill of the miniature parts from which the amazing device was assembled is not inferior to the skill of watchmakers of the 18th century.

4. Ica stones.


Discovered in the Peruvian province of Ica by surgeon Javier Cabrera. Ica stones are processed volcanic rock covered with engravings. But the whole mystery is that among the images there are dinosaurs (brontosaurs, pterosaurs and triceraptors). Perhaps, despite all the arguments of learned anthropologists, they were already flourishing and engaged in creativity at the time when these giants roamed the earth?


In 1936, a strange-looking vessel sealed with a concrete stopper was discovered in Baghdad. Inside the mysterious artifact was a metal rod. Subsequent experiments showed that the vessel performed the function of an ancient battery, since by filling a structure similar to the Baghdad battery with the electrolyte available at that time, it was possible to obtain electricity of 1 V. Now you can argue who owns the title of the founder of the doctrine of electricity, because the Baghdad battery is 2000 years older than Alessandro Volta.

6. The oldest “spark plug”.


In the Coso Mountains in California, an expedition that was looking for new minerals found a strange artifact, its appearance and properties strongly resemble a “spark plug.” Despite its dilapidation, one can confidently distinguish a ceramic cylinder, inside of which there is a magnetized two-millimeter metal rod. And the cylinder itself is enclosed in a copper hexagon. The age of the mysterious find will surprise even the most inveterate skeptic - it is more than 500,000 years old!


Three hundred stone balls, scattered along the coast of Costa Rica, vary in age (from 200 BC to 1500 AD) and in size. However, it is still not clear to scientists exactly how ancient people made them and for what purposes.

8. Planes, tanks and submarines Ancient Egypt.



There is no doubt that the Egyptians built it, but could the same Egyptians have thought of constructing an airplane? Scientists have been asking this question since a mysterious artifact was discovered in one of the Egyptian caves in 1898. The shape of the device is similar to an airplane, and if it was given an initial speed, it could easily fly. The fact that in the era of the New Kingdom the Egyptians were aware of such technical inventions as an airship, a helicopter and a submarine is told on the ceiling of a temple located near Cairo.

9. Human palm print, 110 million years old.


And this is not at all an age for humanity, if you take and add here such a mysterious artifact as a fossilized finger from the Arctic part of Canada, belonging to a person and having the same age. And a footprint found in Utah, and not just a foot, but one shod in a sandal, is 300 - 600 million years old! You wonder, so when did humanity begin?

10. Metal pipes from Saint-Jean-de-Livet.


The age of the rock from which the metal pipes were extracted is 65 million years, therefore, the artifact was made at the same time. Wow, Iron Age. Another strange find was obtained from Scottish rock dating back to the Lower Devonian period, that is, 360 - 408 million years ago. This mysterious artifact was a metal nail.

In 1844, the Englishman David Brewster reported that an iron nail had been discovered in a block of sandstone in one of the Scottish quarries. His cap was so “grown” into the stone that it was impossible to suspect the falsification of the find, although the age of the sandstone dating back to the Devonian period is about 400 million years.

Already within our memory, in the second half of the twentieth century, a discovery was made, which scientists still cannot explain. Near an American town with big name London, Texas, during the splitting of sandstone from the Ordovician period (Paleozoic, 500 million years ago), an iron hammer with the remains of a wooden handle was discovered. If we discard man, who did not exist at that time, it turns out that trilobites and dinosaurs smelted iron and used it for economic purposes. If we put aside the stupid mollusks, then we need to somehow explain finds, for example, such as this one: in 1968, the Frenchmen Druet and Salfati discovered in the quarries of Saint-Jean-de-Livet, in France, oval-shaped metal pipes, the age of which, if dated from the Cretaceous strata, it is 65 million years old - the era of the last reptiles.

Or this: in the middle of the 19th century, blasting work was carried out in Massachusetts, and among the fragments of stone blocks a metal vessel was discovered, which was torn in half by a blast wave. It was a vase about 10 centimeters high, made of metal resembling zinc in color. The walls of the vessel were decorated with images of six flowers in the form of a bouquet. The rock in which this strange vase was kept belonged to the beginning of the Paleozoic (Cambrian), when life was barely emerging on earth - 600 million years ago.

It cannot be said that the scientists completely took water into their mouths: I had to read that a nail and a hammer could fall into the gap and be filled with soil waters, with the formation of dense rock around them over time. Even if the vase fell through along with the hammer, the pipes in French quarries could not have reached the depths by accident.

11. Iron mug in coal

It is not known what a scientist would say if in a lump of coal, instead of the imprint of an ancient plant, he found... an iron mug. Would a coal seam be dated by a man from the Iron Age, or still to the Carboniferous period, when there weren't even dinosaurs? And such an object was found, and until recently that mug was kept in one of the private museums of America, in Southern Missouri, although with the death of the owner, the trace of the scandalous object was lost, to the great, it should be noted, relief of learned men. However, there was a photograph left.

The mug contained the following document, signed by Frank Kenwood: “In 1912, while I was working at the municipal power plant in Thomas, Oklahoma, I came across a massive lump of coal. It was too big and I had to break it with a hammer. This iron mug fell out of the block, leaving behind a hole in the coal. An employee of the company named Jim Stoll witnessed how I broke the block and how the mug fell out of it. I was able to find out the origin of the coal - it was mined in the Wilburton mines in Oklahoma." According to scientists, the coal mined in Oklahoma mines dates back 312 million years, unless, of course, dated by circle. Or did man live together with trilobites - these shrimps of the past?

12. Leg on a trilobite

Fossilized trilobite. 300 million years ago.

Although there is a find that speaks exactly about this - a trilobite crushed by a shoe! The fossil was discovered by a passionate shellfish lover, William Meister, who was exploring the area around Antelope Spring, Utah, in 1968. He split a piece of shale and saw the following picture (in the photo - a split stone).

Shoe print visible right leg, under which were two small trilobites. Scientists explain this as a play of nature, and are ready to believe in a find only if there is a whole chain of similar traces. A Maister is not a specialist, but a draftsman, free time looking for antiquity, but his reasoning is sound: the imprint of the shoe was found not on the surface of hardened clay, but after splitting a piece: the chip fell along the imprint, along the boundary of the compaction caused by the pressure of the shoe. However, they don’t want to talk to him: after all, man, according to evolutionary theory, did not live in the Cambrian period. There weren't even dinosaurs back then. Or... the geochronology is false.

13.The sole of the shoe is on an ancient stone

In 1922, American geologist John Reid conducted a search in Nevada. Unexpectedly, he discovered a clear imprint of a shoe sole on the stone. A photograph of this wonderful find has still been preserved.

Also in 1922, an article written by Dr. W. Ballou appeared in the New York Sunday American. He wrote: “Some time ago, the famous geologist John T. Reid, while searching for fossils, suddenly froze in confusion and surprise at the rock under his feet. There was what looked like a human print, but not a bare foot, but the sole of a shoe that had turned to stone. The front part disappeared, but retained the contour, according to at least, two-thirds of the sole. There was a clearly visible thread around the outline, which, as it turned out, attached a welt to the sole. This is how a fossil was found, which is today the biggest mystery for science, since it was found in a rock that is at least 5 million years old.”
The geologist took the cut piece of rock to New York, where it was examined by several professors from the American Museum of Natural History and a geologist from Columbia University. Their conclusion was clear: the rock is 200 million years old - Mesozoic, Triassic period. However, the imprint itself was recognized by both these and all other scientific heads... as a play of nature. Otherwise, we would have to admit that people wearing shoes sewn with thread lived alongside dinosaurs.

In 1993, Philip Reef became the owner of another amazing find. While digging a tunnel in the mountains of California, two mysterious Cylinders were discovered; they resemble the so-called “cylinders of the Egyptian pharaohs.”

But their properties are completely different from them. They consist half of platinum, half of an unknown metal. If they are heated, for example, to 50°C, then they maintain this temperature for several hours, regardless of the temperature environment. Then they cool almost instantly to air temperature. If an electric current is passed through them, they change color from silver to black, and then return to their original color. Undoubtedly, the cylinders contain other secrets that have yet to be discovered. According to radiocarbon dating, the age of these artifacts is approximately 25 million years.

According to the most commonly accepted story, was found in 1927 by the English explorer Frederick A. Mitchell-Hedges among the Mayan ruins in Lubaantun (modern Belize).

Others claim that the scientist bought this item at Sotheby's in London in 1943. Whatever the reality, this rock crystal skull is cut so perfectly that it appears priceless work art.
So, if we consider the first hypothesis to be correct (according to which the skull is a Mayan creation), then a whole rain of questions falls upon us.
Scientists believe that the Skull of Doom is in some ways technically impossible. Weighing almost 5 kg, and being a perfect copy of a woman's skull, it has a completeness that would have been impossible to achieve without the use of more or less modern methods, methods that the Mayan culture owned and which we do not know about.
The skull is perfectly polished. Its jaw is a separate hinged part from the rest of the skull. It has long attracted (and will likely continue to do so to a somewhat lesser extent) experts from a variety of disciplines.
It is also worth mentioning the unrelenting attribution to him by a group of esotericists supernatural abilities, such as telekinesis, emitting an unusual aroma, color changes. The existence of all these properties is difficult to prove.
The skull was subjected to various analyses. One of the inexplicable things is that made of quartz glass, and therefore having a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale (a scale of mineral hardness from 0 to 10), the skull was able to be carved without hard cutting materials such as ruby ​​and diamond.
Skull research conducted in the 1970s American company Hewlett-Packard determined that in order to achieve such perfection, it would have to be sanded for 300 years.
Could the Mayans have deliberately designed this type of work to be completed 3 centuries later? The only thing we can say with certainty is that the Skull of Fate is not the only one of its kind.
Several such objects have been found in various places on the planet, and they are created from other materials, similar to quartz. These include a complete jadeite skeleton discovered in the China/Mongolian region, made on a smaller scale than human scale, estimated to be approx. in 3500-2200 BC.
There are doubts about the authenticity of many of these artifacts, but one thing is certain: crystal skulls continue to delight intrepid scientists.

17. Lycurgus Cup

A Roman cup made about 1,600 years ago may be an example of nanotechnology, experts say. The mysterious Lycurgus Cup, made of dichroic glass, is able to change color from green to red, depending on the light.

When creating a bowl that is displayed in British Museum in London, technologies were used that are now called nanotechnology - the controlled manipulation of materials at the atomic and molecular level. These technologies, according to scientists, can be used in various fields - from diagnosing diseases to detecting bombs at airports.

Scientists managed to unravel the mystery of the changing color of the bowl only in 1990, after many years of fruitless attempts. After studying the shards of glass under a microscope, scientists discovered that the Romans had infused it with particles of silver and gold, which they crushed into extremely tiny particles - about 50 nanometers in diameter - a thousand times smaller than a crystal of salt.

The precise ratio of metals and such careful grinding led experts to conclude that the Romans were pioneers of nanotechnology because they actually knew what they were doing.

Archaeologist Ian Freestone of University College London, who examined the cup and its unusual optical properties, calls the creation of the cup an "amazing feat." The cup changes color depending on which side the observer is looking at it from.

The cup was apparently used for drinking on exceptional occasions, and experts believe its color changed depending on the drink it was filled with.

Liu Gang Logan, an engineer and nanotechnology expert at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, said: "The Romans knew how to make and use nanoparticles to create works of art."

Of course, scientists could not examine a one-of-a-kind goblet and fill it with various liquids. Therefore, they were forced to recreate the Lycurgus Cup, applying microscopic particles of gold and silver to the glass. After this, the researchers experimented with different liquids to find out how its color would change. Scientists have found that a new cup filled with water glows blue, and when filled with oil it glows bright red.

Since the time of Darwin, science has more or less managed to fit into a logical framework and explain most of the evolutionary processes that took place on Earth.

Archaeologists, biologists, and many other ...ologists agree and are confident that already 400 - 250 thousand years ago the rudiments of the current society flourished on our planet.

Straw huts of Rus', you say? Part 2

With many films we have talked about the developed past of Rus'. You are all convinced of this. It is impossible to dispute this - we have created films for you that are the ultimate truth. But this is not the most interesting thing. And the fact that a bunch of people appear, writing in Russian, shouting how Russian they are, but using all poisonous expressions trying to portray hatred of the past of Rus' and trying to shout down us that Rus' did not have a past, our ancestors are barbarians and contradict foreign history, this is a distraction , ordering and so on and so forth. Have you also noticed this paid Russophobia on the Internet? As they say, a thief's cap is on fire. And who of all shouts loudest about the State Department, custom publications, that someone is being paid money, that America has created a bunch of Russian-language resources to denigrate the truth? This has always been shouted by those who strongly support slandering our past. Always those who faithfully and truly want to protect the owner of supermarkets where they sell substitutes instead of food. Who stands for the oligarchs? For those in power to fatten, and for our pensioners to be left to their own devices. Who is in favor of the school, instead of educating a heroic society, growing office plankton who can sit motionless all day at an office desk and agree with any injustice, as do judges, the prosecutor's office, the police, the tax office, the Ministry of Education and others who servile the System. They've been trying to raise us like this since school.

So whose clerks and arctic foxes are these? Of course, “our” in quotes is the ruling elite, which created a mess in Rus'.

It is worth reminding us once again that metal in Rus' made eternal and stainless, as they begin to argue with us, they say, show the facts, they say, in the West, museums store a lot of metal, but in our museums we have not seen anything metal except wood.

But since we asked for facts, let’s keep our fingers crossed.

Zhenya from the channel “Riddles of History” found a stainless gear and offered it to the museum:

I will complement Zhenya’s words to the effect that the museum only accepts wood, but not metal that is superior to today’s times. In fact, today we are not even capable of making such beautiful wooden dishes, no matter how much we lie to ourselves about the developed 21st century. And not because we are not taught this at school, although these are its direct responsibilities. We cannot create wooden utensils because that we simply don’t have time for this. Because in the past, as it turns out, commoners had it - and they did it not only how, but namely masterpieces, which increases labor intensity and the amount of free time. So who are the slaves? Today the owner will tell you the word “u-volen”, that is, free and free, and you perceive this as a tragedy in life and answer the owner, like a slave, kneeling down, I want to WORK for you, that is, to be his slave.

Stainless steel royal ship Commune:

In addition to the fact that the metal of this ship from tsarist times is superior to modern, it is also Royal submarine rescuer! Who, our dear Russophobes, is stopping you from asking “pre-revolutionary ships” and “submarines” in Google so that you can see these beauties of Rus' and no longer disgrace yourself? What is stopping you from turning on logic and understanding what kind of development and education is needed to bring such giants to life on such a scale? Who's stopping you from finding out? During the time of Pushkin, underwater launches of “ballistic” missiles were carried out in Rus'? What is stopping you from seeing the Tsar Bell and thinking about how it was not something that could have been done, but how it was even placed on this pedestal? At least get the whole city together and try to do it manually! But this bell was probably made for the bell tower. And there is no need to shake your larynxes and creak with sour grimaces - it was not I who forced you to expose yourself as kneading the dough of idle talk about nothing, but the owner of your office, so forward your complaints directly to him. Why is he forcing you to propagate something that you yourself have not believed in for a long time, but are forced to waste your time in your own eyes, lowering yourself to idle talk.

You can easily find it online beautiful buildings from metal structures:

Here’s more material from Sanya Kostromin https://sheba.spb.ru/delo/nartov-1960.htm, with the words:

Good evening. While studying technology, I came across the first Russian mechanical engineer Andrey Konstantinovich Nartov, which was invented in 1717(!) The first lathe (I wonder what it worked on because the first experiments with electricity began to be carried out only in the early 1800s (book "Elementary Electrical Engineering" N.D.Pasechkin Kyiv 1965), and there seemed to be “no other drives”) https://sheba.spb.ru/delo/nartov-1960.htm here is a link to the resource where the book about Nartov is located, there you will see a lot of interesting things, for example a mention archives of Moscow, Leningrad and other places where he looked for documents that had already been forgotten in his time, and others and others that, according to official foreign history, simply did not exist in Rus', which is in bast shoes and huts, and is not educated, and does not invent

And how do you even go to museums without seeing these masterpieces of samovars:

You either have never been there, or you put a Marlboro bag on your head and slammed into the wall with acceleration, you were carried out of there on a stretcher and now you proudly feel the twilight watchmen all over the Internet with your bark, “I was in the museum, there was nothing there except wood saw". These samovars durable, these are not modern pans that you can safely throw away after a year or two.

Moreover, I am sure that you, Russophobes, do not have enough brains to see what they are showing you. Remember the Chairman's film about sheet and machined steel armor in European museums? Samovars, same thing.

You will never make such delicate masterpieces by hand, no matter how much you shout that in kindergarten you saw how the nanny knocked them out with a sledgehammer! Even your scientists, whose lies you propagate, could not bring anything like this to life, no matter how hard they tried. And rightly so, the TM Studio channel noticed that the entire Internet laughed at what the scientists accomplished!

How could you go to museums and not see such masterpieces of batteries:

These are not modern short-lived microwave ovens, which are also harmful to health!

From these beauties we see how the past had a different mindset, how practical it was, in contrast to today’s consumerist one.

And even today it looks like new! Why do our batteries deteriorate after how many years?

Next, what is stopping you from raising the literature of newspapers and finding out how they propagandized destroy everything pre-revolutionary and sell it for scrap? Find pre-revolutionary metal beds, teapots, forks, spoons, knives, metal fences, bathrooms and off we go. And then compare these masterpieces of the pre-revolutionary period with the post-revolutionary period - the older it is, the more art it turns out to contain, the more fine and machine-made processing, and what’s more, they didn’t skimp on metal in pre-revolutionary times, as they did later. I’m already silent for today’s 21st century.

By the way, I also recommend looking at the propaganda regarding the collection of scrap metal not only here, but also in the USA. For example, my editors included a link to the article https://kartam47.livejournal.com/2022197.html, where from the photographs I don’t see the process of turning over metal for scrap as much as I see newspaper propaganda old world for the sake of everyone's happiness.

As they say, find the differences from our pioneers:

But let's get back to bending our fingers. What prevents you, Russophobes, from raising pre-revolutionary literature and newspapers on the huge export of metal from various ports?

Or is it so scary to feel even more squalid when you stubbornly impose propaganda on false history?

Here's an interesting announcement - a German came with URAL IRON FACTORIES for the construction of mills and all kinds of machines of various kinds:

In old photographs you can see a lot of roofing iron. Many coatings have survived to this day, which indicates the very high quality of the metal of those times.

What prevented you, Russophobes, from finding them? Or will you continue to snivel and ask to be led by the hand like little children?

You have to scream so much like victims that they can’t find anything anywhere! Here is a link, for example, to the publication “URAL METALLURGY IN THE 18TH CENTURY” Why can we find it, but you can’t? Why do we owe it to us to see such pleasure as you, Russophobes, are lowly inclined to the profession of armchair lies, with which you beg for financial benefits for lame disability?

Who prevented you from enlightening yourself about such technological capabilities of Rus' as “ Slavyanovsky glass»:

Welding sample from eight ferrous and non-ferrous metals, which at that time, according to your official history, were considered incompatible: bronze, nickel, steel, copper, cast iron, bell bronze, tombac, nickel silver. At the Chicago World's Fair in 1893 he received gold medal with the wording “For the technical revolution produced.” At that time they did not believe that it was possible to combine non-ferrous and ferrous metals.

How did you turn There are no welding seams on this glass. For example, how they are trying to achieve this result today:

Joining metal... be it welding or riveting, this is a whole science of metallurgy, strength of materials, metallurgy and apparently something else.

What prevents you from finding metallurgical plants in Rus'? We, for example, easily found the portal “ABANDONED FACTORIES OF THE URAL” https://ekburg.tv/articles/gorodskie_istorii/2017-08-10/broshennye_zavody_urala._pamjatnik_demidovskomu_chuguniju_2 where you can find a lot of developed metallurgy from the 17th century.

What’s stopping you, instead of selling your face and running around “show me the facts, show me the facts,” dancing on the keyboard and solving a seemingly quite simple problem, is to find A LOT of evidence of developed Rus' and its industry? Today, in order not to do this, I don’t know how stupid I have to be. That's all that those who chase us with their tails for one purpose are capable of, is to convey how they do not want to see a mention of our developed past. Apart from poisonous speculation, rudeness and reluctance to find something on their own, I have never heard anything significant from them. That’s why our films have always been and will be the ultimate truth, since we always have so many arguments that your entire Russophobic office won’t have enough fingers.

The only thing I can do for you, so to speak, take the fur coat off my master’s shoulder, is to express gratitude for the fact that you, with your stupidity and stupidity, have always been the main inspirers of our unsurpassed masterpieces.

Straw huts or super-developed metallurgy?

Some argue that alien life forms have visited Earth throughout its history.
However, such claims are difficult to prove. Most cases of unidentified flying object sightings and abductions can be easily disproved,
as “ducks” or simple misunderstandings of what is happening.

But what about those times when the little green men actually left something behind?
Or what about those artifacts that people of ancient times built to honor what can only be called visitors from other planets?
There are a huge number of strange objects in the world, both mysterious and made by human hands,
which are supposedly evidence of visits of alien life forms to our Earth.

10. Russian UFO Tooth Wheel

A man from Russia found a strange piece of machinery in Vladivostok, the administrative capital of the Primorsky Territory. The object resembled a piece of a gear wheel and was in a piece of coal that the man had used to light the fire. Although discarded parts of old cars are not uncommon in Russia, the man became interested and showed his find to scientists. Testing revealed that the jagged object was composed almost exclusively of aluminum and was almost certainly man-made.

In addition, its age was 300 million years. This discovery raised a number of interesting questions, since aluminum of this purity and form does not occur in nature and people did not know how to obtain it until 1825. It is also curious that the object also resembles parts used in microscopes and other delicate technical devices.

Despite the fact that conspiracy supporters did not fail to immediately declare that part of the spaceship aliens, scientists studying the object are in no hurry to draw conclusions and want to conduct a series of tests to find out more information about a mysterious artifact.

9. Stone head from Guatemala (Guatemala Stone Head)


In the 1930s, in the middle of the jungles of Guatemala, researchers found a huge, impressively crafted sandstone statue. The facial features of the stone carved did not resemble those of the Mayans or any other people who were known to inhabit these lands. Moreover, the elongated skull and delicate facial features were seemingly not found in history books at all.

Scientists said the statue's unique facial features depict a member of an ancient alien civilization that was far more advanced than any of the pre-Hispanic races of the Americas that we know about. Some have even suggested that the head may be just part of a much larger structure located at the bottom of the head (this has been determined not to be the case). Of course, there is a chance that the statue could be the work of a later artist or even a complete hoax. Unfortunately, we will probably never know for sure: the head was used as a target for training of revolutionary troops and its features were destroyed almost without a trace.

8. Williams Enigmalith


In 1998, a hiker named John J. Williams noticed a strange metal protrusion in the mud. He dug up a strange stone, which, after cleaning, was discovered to have a strange electrical component attached to it. The electrical device was clearly man-made and looked a bit like an electrical plug.

Since then, this stone has become a well-known secret in UFO enthusiast circles. He was written about in UFO Magazine and (according to Williams) in the Fortean Times, the famous magazine dedicated to mysterious phenomena. Williams, an electrical engineer, says the electronic component embedded in the stone was not glued or embedded into the granite. In fact, the rock most likely formed around the device.

Many believe that Williams' Enigmalite is a "duck" because Williams refuses to split the stone but agrees to sell it for $500,000. Additionally, the stone device is similar to the heating stones commonly used to keep tame lizards warm. However, geological analysis appears to have determined that the stone is about 100,000 years old, and if this is true, then the structure inside it cannot be the work of man. Williams is so confident in his find that he agrees to allow research on Enigmalite to be carried out under three conditions: he must be present during the research, the stone must remain intact and unharmed, and he will not pay for the research.

7. Ancient planes


The Incas and other pre-Columbian people left behind extremely mysterious trinkets. One of the strangest is probably the so-called Ancient Airplanes, these are small, golden figurines that resemble modern ones. jet planes. It was initially believed that they were zoomorphic (meaning they were made in the shape of animals), but it was soon discovered that the figurines had strange features that were very similar to fighter wings, stabilizing tails, and even landing gear. The figurines were quite aerodynamic and when people who believed in ancient astronauts (supposedly) made model airplanes to match the proportions of the figurines, and equipped them with propellers and (again, presumably) jet engines, they flew perfectly. All this has led to the assumption that the Incas most likely had contact with people (most likely of extraterrestrial origin) who were able to build modern jet aircraft, and who may even have had this technology themselves.

Well, there is also the option that these wonderful figurines simply could have been artistic images bees, flying fish, or other winged creatures. As always, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

6. Ubaid Lizard Men

The archaeological site of Al Ubaid is a cornucopia for archaeologists and historians. It was there that countless objects from pre-Sumerian times were found, a period known as the Ubaid period (5900 - 4000 BC). However, some of these items are quite scary. A number of statues from the Ubaid period depict strange, lizard-like humanoids in unique, mundane poses, which seems to indicate that these creatures were not gods (such as the animal-headed Egyptian gods) but rather a race of lizard people.

Of course, these statues have given rise to countless stories and theories about lizard aliens who once inhabited the earth (and, according to conspiracy theorists, still inhabit it). Although it seems unlikely, their true nature remains a mystery.

5. Remains of meteorites on the island of Sri Lanka (Sri Lanka Meteorite Fossils)


After analyzing the remains of a meteorite that fell in Sri Lanka, researchers discovered that the object they found was something more than a simple piece of space rock. It was alien artifact in the most literal sense: an artifact consisting of real aliens. Two separate studies found that the meteorite contained fossils and algae that were clearly of extraterrestrial origin.

Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe, who led the first study, said the remains provided compelling evidence for panspermia (the hypothesis that life exists in the universe and spreads through meteorites and other solid rocks). However, his statements, as expected, were criticized. Wickramasingha is an avid enthusiast of the panspermia theory, with a tendency to claim that almost everything he finds is of unearthly origin. Moreover, traces of life on the meteorite actually contained freshwater species commonly found on Earth, indicating that the remains were contaminated by organisms during their time on our planet.

4. Tapestry “Summer’s Triumph Tapestry”


The tapestry known as the "Summer Triumph" was created in Bruges (the capital of the province of West Flanders in the Flemish Region of Belgium) around 1538. On this moment the tapestry is in Bavarian national museum(Bayerisches National Museum).

"Summer Triumph" is famous (or infamous) among conspiracy theorists because it depicts whole line characteristic objects flying in the sky that clearly resemble unidentified flying objects. Although their presence is puzzling, some people believe they may have been added to the tapestry (which depicts the rise of a victorious ruler to power) to link the UFO to the ruler as a symbol of divine intervention. This, of course, raises more questions than answers, such as: Why did 16th-century Belgians recognize flying saucers and mentally associate them with a deity?

3. “Glorification Of The Eucharist”


An Italian artist named Ventura Salimbeni painted one of the most mysterious altar paintings in history. "Disputa of the Eucharist", a 16th-century painting also known as "The Celebration of the Sacrament of the Eucharist" (Eucharist is a synonym for Holy Communion), consists of three parts. The lower two parts are relatively ordinary: they depict a number of representatives of the clergy and an altar. However, on the top there is a picture of the Holy Trinity (Father, Son and a dove representing the Holy Spirit looking down on them)... and in their hands they are holding what looks very much like a space satellite. The object is large and spherical in shape with a metallic coating, telescopic antennas and strange lights. In fact, it is very similar to the old Sputnik 1.

Although UFO enthusiasts and ancient astronaut theorists have often cited the Celebration of the Eucharist as evidence to support their theories of extraterrestrial life (or perhaps travel), experts have quickly dismissed such claims. According to them, the sphere is the "Sphere of the World" (Sphaera Mundi), a spherical representation of the universe that was often used in religious art. The strange lights on the "satellite" are just the sun and moon, and its antennae are actually scepters that symbolize the power of the Father and the Son.

2. Mexican Government’s Maya Artifacts


The story goes like this: In 2012, the Mexican government released a series of Mayan artifacts that they had kept secret for 80 years as state secrets. These items were taken from an unexplored pyramid that was found underneath another pyramid at Calakmul, the site of one of the most powerful ancient Mayan cities. A documentary film sanctioned by the Mexican government and directed by Raul Julia-Levy (son of famous actor Raul Julia) and financier Elisabeth Thieriot (ex-wife of the former publisher of the San Francisco Chronicle) published a number of these findings , most of which clearly depict UFOs and aliens.

This case may seem quite intriguing, but once you take a closer look, a strange scam pattern begins to emerge. It seems that both documentarians are lying about something. Julia-Levy does not seem to be who he claims to be, and Raul's widow Julia publicly called the man a fraud named Salvador Alba Fuentes. According to her, Salvador is trying to use the fame of her late husband and tells everyone that his real name is Raul Julia-Levy. Meanwhile, Thierieu shut down production of the documentary and sued her partner, accusing Julia-Levi of stealing her documentary and abusing filming equipment (which Julia-Levi is indignant against). Moreover, there appears to be very little scientific evidence to support the authenticity of the artifacts, and photographs that have surfaced online provide less than conclusive evidence.

Perhaps the artifacts were cheap fakes made by a local artisan. Perhaps the officials changed their minds about the documentary and ordered Thierier to stop filming it at all costs. Whatever the truth behind these strange artifacts, their authenticity is far from conclusive.

1. Betz Mystery Sphere


As the Betz family surveyed the aftermath of a strange fire that had destroyed 35.6 hectares of their forest, they found a strange object: a silvery sphere, about 20 centimeters in diameter, completely smooth except for a strange, elongated triangle symbol. Thinking that it might be a NASA instrument or even a Soviet spy satellite, they eventually decided that it was most likely just a souvenir. Without thinking twice, they decided to take him with them.

Two weeks later, their son was strumming his guitar in the same room where the sphere stood. Suddenly, the sphere began to respond to his melodies, producing strange pulsating sounds and resonance that greatly alarmed the family's dog. The family soon discovered that the orb had other strange qualities. She could stop and change direction as she was sent rolling across the floor, eventually returning to the man who pushed her like a faithful dog. It seemed that it was powered by solar energy, becoming noticeably more active on sunny days.

It began to seem that something (or someone) was controlling the sphere: from time to time it emitted low-frequency vibrations and noises, as if a motor was working inside it. She avoided falling or hitting anything at all costs, as if protecting what was inside her. She was even able to completely defy gravity by climbing up an inclined table to avoid falling.

Naturally, these reports were followed by a media frenzy. Respected and serious newspapers such as the New York Times and the London Daily sent reporters to see the miracle sphere in person as it repeated its tricks in front of countless crowds. Even scientists and military personnel were impressed, although the Betz family did not allow them to take the sphere for more detailed study. However, this soon changed when the sphere began to misbehave. She began to exhibit poltergeist-like behavior: at night the doors of the house would slam shut and strange organ music would suddenly fill the house. At that moment, the family decided to find out what the sphere really was. Navy analyzed it and discovered that it was... a completely ordinary (albeit high-quality) stainless steel ball.

To this day, this alien sphere and its purpose remain a mystery. However, there were many theories with which people tried to explain its nature. By the way, the most likely of them is the most common explanation: three years before the Betz family discovered the sphere, an artist named James Durling-Jones was passing through the area where it was found. In the roof rack of his car were several stainless steel balls for a sculpture he was making. Some of these balls fell out while the car was driving over potholes. These balls fit the exact description of the Betz sphere, and were balanced enough to roll at the slightest provocation (the Betz family lived in an old house with an uneven floor, so such a ball would appear to behave erratically). These balls could even make a rattling sound, thanks to tiny pieces of metal shavings stuck inside during the manufacturing process.

While it doesn't explain all the phenomena people have reported, this explanation certainly casts a shadow on all the "mysterious ghostly orb from space" rhetoric.

According to some fundamentalists, the Bible tells us that God created Adam and Eve several thousand years ago. Science reports that this is just a fiction, and that man is several million years old, and civilization is tens of thousands of years old. However, could it be that traditional science is just as wrong as bible stories? Exists a large number of archaeological evidence that the history of life on Earth may be quite different from what geological and anthropological texts tell us today.

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 approximately an inch (2.54 cm) in diameter, and some of them are engraved with three parallel lines running along the axis of the object. Two types of balls were found: one consisting of a hard bluish metal with white spots, and another empty from the inside and filled with a white spongy substance. Interestingly, the rock in which they were discovered dates back to the Precambrian period and dates back 2.8 billion years! Who made these spheres and why remains a mystery.

Koso Artifact

While prospecting for minerals in the California mountains near Olancha in the winter of 1961, Wallace Lane, Virginia Maxey and Mike Mikesell found a rock they thought was a geode—a good 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. Experts concluded that if it was a geode, it would have taken approximately 500,000 years to form, but the object inside was clearly an example of human production.

Further examination revealed that the porcelain was surrounded by a hexagonal casing, 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 encased in hardened clay.

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

Strange metal objects

Sixty-five million years ago there were no people, let alone anyone who knew how to work with metal. In this case, how will science explain the semi-oval metal pipes dug from Cretaceous chalk in France?

In 1885, when breaking a piece of coal, a metal cube was discovered, clearly processed by a craftsman. In 1912, power plant workers broke a large piece of coal, from which an iron pot fell out. A nail was found in a block of sandstone 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, coals and fossils are forming much faster than we think today.

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

Shoe marks on granite

This trace fossil was discovered in a coal seam 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 whose shape resembles the sole of a modern shoe, studying the footprint under a microscope revealed clearly visible traces of a double seam line around the perimeter of the shape. The footprint is about a size 13 and the right side of the heel appears more worn than the left.

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

The trace was left recently and the coal did not form over millions of years (which science does not agree with), or...
-Fifteen million years ago there were people (or something like people for whom we have no historical data) who walked around in shoes, or...
-Time travelers went back in time and inadvertently left a trace, or...
-This is a carefully 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 - was 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 was at a loss to explain how this modern trace ended up on the Permian rock, which experts estimate 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.

In a 1992 article on the discovery in Smithsonian Magazine, it was noted that paleontologists call such anomalies “problematica.” In fact, they are big problems for scientists.

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

In the same way, to challenge the history of modern humans (or perhaps our way of dating 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 the reality is too inconvenient.

Is this science correct?

Ancient springs, screws and metal

They are similar to items you would find in any workshop's scrap bin.

It is obvious that these artifacts were made by someone. However, this collection of springs, loops, spirals and other metal objects was discovered in layers of sedimentary rock 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 the Ural Mountains of Russia in the 1990s. Unearthed at depths of 3 to 40 feet, 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 evidence 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 hard black stone found by stone collector Gilling Wang in China's Mazong Mountains, for unknown reasons, there was a metal rod of unknown origin.

The rod is threaded like screws, indicating that the item was made, but the fact that it was 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 was a meteorite that fell to Earth from space, that is, the artifact could be of alien origin.

It is noteworthy that this is not the only case of metal screws being found in hard rock; 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 examination of another stone found in Russia revealed eight screws in it!

Williams fork

A man named John Williams said he found this artifact while walking in a remote rural areas. He was wearing shorts, and after walking through the bushes, he looked down to check how much his legs were scratched. 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, as if it were some kind of fork.

The location where Williams found the artifact, he said, was "at least 25 feet from the nearest road (which was dirt and hard to see), and there are no urban areas, industrial complexes, power plants, nuclear power plants, airports or military operations (about which I wish I knew)."

The stone is composed of natural quartz and feldspathic granite, and according to geology, such stones do not take decades to form, which would be required if the anomalous object was made modern man. According to Williams' calculations, the stone was approximately one hundred thousand years old.

Who in those days could make such an item?

Aluminum artifact from Ayud

This five-pound, eight-inch-long object, made 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 puzzles scientists.

Apparently manufactured and not a natural formation, the artifact was sent for analysis, which found that the object was composed of 89 percent aluminum with traces of copper, zinc, lead, cadmium, nickel and other elements. Aluminum does not exist in nature in this form. It must have been made, but this kind of aluminum wasn't made until the 1800s.

If the artifact is the same age as the bones of a mastodon, this means that it is at least 11 thousand years old, because that’s when they became extinct last representatives mastodons. Analysis of the oxidized layer covering the artifact determined that it was 300-400 years old - that is, it was created much earlier than the invention of the aluminum processing process.

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

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

Piri Reis Map

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

Painted on the skin of a gazelle, the Piri Reis map is the only surviving part of a larger map. It was compiled in the 1500s, according to the inscription on the map itself, from other maps of the year 300. But how is this possible if the map shows:

South America, exactly located relative to Africa
-West Coasts North Africa both Europe and the east coast of Brazil
-The most striking thing is the partially visible continent far to the South, where we know Antarctica is, although it was not discovered until 1820. Even more puzzling is that it is depicted in detail and without ice, even though this land mass has been covered in ice for at least six thousand years.

Today this artifact is also not available for public viewing.

Petrified Hammer

A hammer head and part of a hammer handle were found near London, Texas in 1936.

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

For archaeologists, this tool poses a difficult challenge: the calcareous rock that contains the artifact is estimated to be 110-115 million years old. The wooden handle is petrified like ancient petrified wood, and the hammer head, made of solid iron, is of a relatively modern type.

The only thing possible scientific explanation was given by John Cole, a researcher from National Center scientific education:

In 1985, the scientist wrote:

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

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

And what do you think? A modern hammer...or a hammer from an ancient civilization?
