The
Atacama Skeleton
In 2003, a
man by the name of Oscar Munoz stumbled upon this six-inch-long skeleton in the
Atacama Desert. The skeleton’s strange alienesque features caused quite a buzz
among those still hopeful for proof of extraterrestrial life. After extensive
analysis, it was determined that the skeleton does in fact, belong to a human.
Scientists could confirm this with absolute certainty through DNA extraction.
Naturally, this probed further mystery regarding how and why a human could be
so small.
After successfully confirming that the Atacama was
not an alien, researchers had a different mystery to unravel. Scientists
immediately began working on plausible theories that would explain a
six-inch-long human skeleton.
Initially,
the skeleton was believed to be a mummified aborted fetus. Alternative opinions
believe the skeletal remains belonged to a young child with severe
deformities. The mystery remains unsolved but continues to intrigue
mystery fans.
The Codex Gigas
The
Codex Giga, otherwise known as the “Devil’s Bible,” is the largest medieval
manuscript in the World. Weighing in at over 165 pounds, this mysterious book
was believed to contain all human and medieval knowledge.
Within
this book, you will find a version of the old testament, the new testament, and
several secular works. The manuscript was produced in the 13th century and is
steeped in rich history and mystery, all of which, cannot be explained.
Besides the enormous dimension of the Codex Gigas, the
book is fashioned in animal skins, which would have required the use of 160
animals.
The
text within the book suggests a single author, although the scribe remains
unknown. Perhaps, the most prominent feature is the large illustration of the
devil in the middle of the book. Today, the book remains one of the most
mysterious Ancient texts in the World.
Ulfberht Viking Swords
Imagine
finding a sword that was virtually unbeatable in battle, and crafted from the
purest metals on Earth. The Ulfberht Viking Swords is just that; it was the
ultimate weapon.
These
swords were found between 800 and 1,000 A.D, and the discovery has since
confused the archaeological community. All the swords were made of a pure metal,
yet the technology used is unknown.
Since the discovery of the swords, experts have
attempted to recreate the manufacturing process, but remain baffled. One theory
regarding these swords suggests that the methods and materials come from the
Middle East. There is even talk of Norse gods having an impact on the
craftsmanship. Some believe that an alien race might have helped in their
creation, and others believe that a time traveler is the key to their
existence. Even
with today’s modern technology, it is still a mystery how blacksmiths made
these swords, and they are almost impossible to reproduce.
The Nampa Figurine
In
1889, well workers found a tiny artifact, which appeared to be in human form.
Little did they know this clay figurine would become a baffling mystery that
would challenge history and evolution for years to come.
The
artifact was formed in clay in a 300-foot well, placing its age far beyond the
arrival of man. Further analysis dated it at two million years old, thereby,
challenging evolution as we know it. Though we know our ancestors lived before
the two million year mark, we have no evidence that these hominids had the
skills to do this.
The Shroud of Turin
Do
we have physical evidence that Jesus actually rose from the dead? If you
believe this next item, we might. Many people believe that the Shroud of Turin
provides physical evidence of the crucifixion, death, and resurrection of Jesus
Christ. The authenticity of the shroud is a constant source of debate among
theologians.
The
Shroud of Turin is a piece of linen cloth, which bears the image of a man,
believed to be Jesus of Nazareth. Despite several different recovery methods,
the image on the Shroud remains muted.The shroud, believed to be the burial cloth of Jesus,
measures in at 14 feet by 3.5 feet. Upon detailed analysis, the image features
a man who has been tortured, beaten, and crucified.
Also,
the cloth features over 100 whip marks, which coordinate with the wrists and
feet, as well as a possible crown of thorns. The similarities between this item
and the Biblical story are remarkable, making it the most analyzed religious
relic in the World.
The Coso Artifact
The
Coso Artifact was found 4,300 feet above sea level in Owens Lake, CA, and is
considered an out-of-place artifact.
The
object was first discovered covered in a piece of hard clay in 1961 and has
since been a mystery. If the ancient relic was in fact, what people thought it
was, it could provide scientific evidence of a historical anomaly.
After the discovery of the Coso artifact, it was
clear that it was much more than a rock. In fact, it is believed to be an
ancient spark plug, created long before the technology was available.Within
the layer of rock, was a two-millimeter shaft of bright metal with no signs of
oxidation or corrosion. This is so puzzling because you know that most metal
always rusts eventually. Further studies led researchers to believe that this
is some form of machinery.
Ica Stones
In
the early 1930's, a cultural anthropologist found hundreds of andesite stones
containing depictions of prehistoric dinosaurs. The burial stones were
estimated to be between 500 and 1,500 years old.
The
mysterious stones also feature images that depict open-heart surgeries, brain
transplants, and some sexually graphic content. The most surprising of the
etchings featured representations of a stegosaurus, brontosaurus, and other
prehistoric dinosaurs. This is quite puzzling, as we have no other evidence
that man lived at the same time as dinosaurs.
Each of the Ica stones depicts a
different scene, which leaves room for a lot of interpretation. The mystery
shrouding these artifacts prompted scientists to unravel the scenes behind each
narrative.
Roman Dodecahedrons
Over
200 years of research has been dedicated to understanding the origin and
function of these stone objects. To date, with over 100 of these artifacts
discovered, the mystery surrounding them is no closer to being solved.
The
Roman Dodecahedron are objects with a geometrical shape, usually ranging
between four and 11 centimeters in size. The greatest mystery behind these
artifacts is how they work, what they do, and why exactly they were made.
The Gate of the Sun
Located
in Bolivia, the Gate of the Sun is a 13,000-foot astrological and archaeological mystery. The gate, also known as Pumapunku, forms a part of a monument group
known as Tiwanaka. This archaeological site is so complex, the engineering
techniques puzzle even the Aztecs. Additionally, the structure dates back to
the time before Columbus.
The
stone blocks located on the site have no chisel marks, or signs of
craftsmanship, which makes their shape and design a complete mystery.
The mystery behind the Gate of the Sun only gets
stranger. The stone used to build the temple, came from two separate mines, one
was 10 miles away, and the other was 50 miles away. How did the ancients get
the stone that far without modern tools?The
stone hedge shows signs of producing blocks weighing upwards of 400 pounds,
which would require the use of many stones. The process used to build them also
suggested modern technology.
The Yonaguni Monument
Historians,
researchers, and even scuba divers have sought to find Atlantis, the lost
underwater city for centuries. When divers discovered the Yonaguni
Monument in 1987, many people believed they had found it.
The
Yonaguni Monument is a set of 100,000-year-old ruins submerged off the coast of
Japan. Many experts have attempted to identify the site, which has only led to
controversy and more unanswered questions.
After researchers had attempted to uncover the
identity of the ruins, they found what appeared to be a giant archway. The arch
included intricate carvings, paved streets, and grand staircases. While
scientists persist in their research, the belief is that the remnants are from
an old city that existed nearly 10,000 years ago that has sunk into the sea.
Other theorists believe in a massive underwater world, which scientists are
still trying to unravel.
Saksaywaman
In
the city of Peru, you can find a complex stone wall known as Saksaywaman. The
precision used to create the wall is found nowhere on Earth, which has puzzled
scientists for decades.
Each
stone fits with rounded corners, interlocking shapes, and are tightly fit
together without a single form of sealant. The shape of each stone perfectly
fits with the adjacent stone like a perfect puzzle.
Gobekli Tepe
In
Turkey, you will find the oldest known archaeological site, which provides significant
evidence of advanced construction. Gobekli Tepe is a series of temples
constructed over 13,000 years ago, during the Neolithic period. The site is
well preserved and appears to have been created with advanced tools and
methods. Per
historians, the Neolithic man was not skilled in hunting or construction; thus,
many theories suggest that beings from another planet aided in the building of
the temples.
After archaeologists had studied the site of the
Gobekli Tepes, evidence suggests that the temples were most likely used as a
site for religious gatherings. Although that mystery was unraveled, historians
are still unable to figure out how ancient man built the 40-60 ton pillars
using primitive tools.Also,
after the site was built over 12,000 years ago, it was active for 3,000 years,
only to be meticulously covered up around 8th century BC.
The Siberian Sinkholes
Scientists
are baffled about a massive crater that appeared out of nowhere in the middle
of Northern Siberia, near Yamal. The giant black hole is hundreds of feet wide
and just appeared one day. Scientists have ruled out a meteorite strike, but
the cause of the hole remains unknown.
While
speculation among the extra-terrestrial community is a buzz regarding a
possible UFO, it turns out it could be the area’s geology. So, there is a hole in the middle of
Siberia for no known reason, and scientists everywhere want to know why. Well,
according to one polar scientist in Australia, it could be the result of a
melted polar formation, known as a “pingo.”
