Most puzzling Ancient Artifacts

The science tells us that humans are few millions years old , And the civilizations are just tens of thousand years old. Could it be, however, that conventional science is just as mistaken? There is a great deal of archeological evidence that the history of life on earth might be far different than what current geological and anthropological texts tell us. Consider these astonishing finds..



Ancient  Model Aircraft



 

There are artifacts belonging to ancient Egyptian and Central American cultures that look amazingly like modern-day aircraft. The Egyptian artifact, found in a tomb at Saqquara, Egypt in 1898, is a six-inch wooden object that strongly resembles a model airplane, with fuselage, wings and tail. Experts believe the object is so aerodynamic that it is actually able to glide. The small object discovered in Central America (shown at right), and estimated to be 1,000 years old, is made of gold and could easily be mistaken for a model of a delta-wing aircraft - or even the Space Shuttle. It even features what looks like a pilot's seat.


The Baghdad Battery





Today batteries can be found in any grocery, drug, convenience and department store you come across. Well, here's a battery that's 2,000 years old! Known as The Baghdad battery, this curiosity was found in the ruins of a Parthian village believed to date back to between 248 B.C. and 226 A.D. The device consists of a 5-1/2-inch high clay vessel inside of which was a copper cylinder held in place by asphalt, and inside of that was an oxidized iron rod. Experts who examined it concluded that the device needed only to be filled with an acid or alkaline liquid to produce an electric charge. It is believed that this ancient battery might have been used for electroplating objects with gold. If so, how was this technology lost... and the battery not rediscovered for another 1,800 years?




Impossible Fossils


 

Fossils, as we learned in grade school, appear in rocks that were formed many thousands of years ago. Yet there are a number of fossils that just don't make geological or historical sense. A fossil of a human handprint, for example, was found in limestone estimated to be 110 million years old. What appears to be a fossilized human finger found in the Canadian Arctic also dates back 100 to 110 million years ago. And what appears to be the fossil of a human footprint, possibly wearing a sandal, was found near Delta, Utah in a shale deposit estimated to be 300 million to 600 million years old.




Giant Stone Balls of Costa Rica



Workmen hacking and burning their way through the dense jungle of Costa Rica to clear an area for banana plantations in the 1930s stumbled upon some incredible objects: dozens of stone balls, many of which were perfectly spherical. They varied in size from as small as a tennis ball to an astonishing 8 feet in diameter and weighing 16 tons! Although the great stone balls are clearly man-made, it is unknown who made them, for what purpose and, most puzzling, how they achieved such spherical precision.


Ancient Footprint




You could see a human footprint like this today on any beach or patch of mud. But this footprint -- clearly from the anatomy of a modern human being -- is fossilized in stone estimated to be about 290 million years old.

The discovery was made in New Mexico by paleontologist Jerry MacDonald in 1987. There were fossil footprints of birds and other animals, but MacDonald was particularly at a loss to explain how this modern footprint could possibly have been cast in Permian strata, which dates from 290 to 248 million years ago -- long before man (or even birds and dinosaurs for that matter) existed on this planet, according to current scientific thinking.

In an article that Smithsonian Magazine ran in 1992 about the discovery, it was noted that paleontologists call such anomalies as "problematica." Big problems indeed for scientists.

It's the white crow theory: All we have to do to prove that not all crows are black is to find just one white crow.

Similarly: All we have to do to prove that the history of modern man (or possibly how we date strata) is to find a fossil like this. Yet, scientists just put it on a shelf, label it as "problematica" and continue in their rigid beliefs because the reality is too inconvenient.

Is that good science?



Shoe Print in Granite





This shoe print fossil was discovered in a seam of coal in Fisher Canyon, Pershing County, Nevada. It is estimated that the age of this coal is a whopping 15 million years old! And lest you think that this is the fossil of some kind of animal whose shape merely resembles a modern shoe, close-up examination of the fossil reveals that traces of a double line of sewed stitches around the perimeter of the shape are clearly visible. It's about a size 13, and the right side of the heel appears to be more worn down than the left.

How does a modern shoe print become impressed in material that would later become coal 15 million years ago? Either:

The imprint was made recently and coal does not really take millions of years to form (which science does not support), or...
There were people (or something like people) walking around in shoes 15 million years ago (of which we have no historical record), or...
Time travelers went back in time and carelessly left this show print, or...
It is an elaborate, highly detailed hoax.

Extraterrestrial or Alien Scripts

ALIENS- They themselves are one of the greatest mysteries of today's world. Each and every intellect living in this world wonders about their existence their presence. There are thousands of stories about them, cover ups by various governments and agencies, and billions of dollars has been spent by the organizations like SETI  but the question remains still. Here im not gonna emphasize on that question but im stating some scripts and symbols which are believed to be conveyed by elements from the outer world.
                                        
They are genuine or not i leave them upon you readers to decide . I'll take take the account of the source of that script, location and the story behind it.



Scripts from various persons who claimed they were being abducted by Aliens


Symbol read by Antonio Villas Boas
 
  
These read by Antonio Villas boas a Brazilian framer who claimed to be abducted by Aliens in 1957. Read whole story here.




Symbol seen by Lonnie Zamora

                                                            

Lonnie Zamora was a New Mexico police officer who reported UFO sighting on Friday, April 24, 1964, near Socorro, New Mexico. He was able to reading the symbol which follows, drawn in red on the machine.

                                                                









This star chart was shown to Lyn, an Arizona woman during an abduction. Inside the circle are pictures which she is trying to remember.

Lyn explained, "When this star chart or star map was shown to me, it was in the form of a hologram, so it was three dimensional. The four quadrants were actually small galaxies or star systems. By map I mean it was a replica like a road map. Two of the top quadrants are from memory and the two bottom ones are best guesses."




aUI language


The above symbols are referred to as aUI language, which  John Weilgart claims to have learned from a being of Outer space.



More Abduction symbols Here.


Symbols from other sources



Unknown Writing System Uncovered On Ancient Olmec Tablet



The Cascajal block - dates to the early first millennium BCE and has features that indicate it comes from the Olmec civilization of Mesoamerica. Some believe these were Alien writings.










Jesse Marcel, Jr.’s drawing of Roswell wreckage symbols


After the famous Roswell crash Jesse Marcel brought some pieces of UFO wreckage home where he found the above symbols engraved in an I shaped beam.








Enochian Symbols

Enochian symbols usually referred to as angelic language from 16th century. They may have some link with the extraterrestrials..



                                                                      Engraved symbols discovered by Marcel Homet

French Explorer Marcel Homet discovered these symbols during his forwarding in Amazonia of North, among the Brazilian megaliths of Pedra Pinta , Published in its work “The sounds of the sun”, by Neuville Sperman, London, in 1963





There Are many more scripts and symbols which i cannot post here due to copyright issues.
Some of the scripts i posted above might be hoax but certainly not all of them.. if you ask me then i'd say yeah there is "someone" out there trying to contact us or sending us a message or merely a hint of its existence. All we need to do is break these codes in linguistic form or they shall remain in deep shadow of obscurity ..

The Mysterious Ancient scripts

Ancient scripts abound in the world. And they present challenge that excites human imagination over ancient civilizations and the mysteries they incorporate.

I have compiled Some of the most fascinating and discussed scripts among the Historians of 19th to 21st century 


 


The Mysterious Scripts of ancient Crete
Linear A
Phaestos Disk (Linear A)




This script appears on the Phaestos Disk discovered by the Italian School of Archaeology in 1908. The script on this disk has been scrutinized extensively for clues as to the kind of language it represents. The symbols seem to have been impressed on the disk and are arranged in a spiral form. Linguists describe the Phaestus Disk as unique

The Minoan Linear A script inscribed on the renowned Phaestos (Festos) Disk. This script Hasn't been deciphered yet. These “milkstones” are Minoan sealstones with engraved hieroglyphic signs. According to legend these sealstones were worn by Minoan women who had just given birth as amulets in expectation of ample milk production.
Many believed that they were the secret to deciphering the language of ancient Minoans.
 Cretan  hieroglyphics appeared on Crete about 2000 B.C., approximately in the period the first Minoan palaces were erected. The term “hieroglyphics” is credited to Sir Arthur Evans who saw Egyptian influences in the wider Mediterranean region.Cretan hieroglyphics have been found all over Crete, inscribed on soft stones (steatite), tablets or clay vessels. Researchers and experts alike have been unable to decipher these hieroglyphics.
It is likely that the secrets of Linear A script shall remain locked for ever. However, this will only keep our interest unwavering and our search for truth a never ending task.








Linear B, another script for writting Greek, circa 1450BC







Linear BLinear B evolved from Linear A with a reduction of symbols. It represents a pure Greek form of writing of the Homeric period. Linear B appears on clay tablets which have survived the destruction of the Minoan palaces.
The first clay tablets in Linear B were discovered by Mr. Minos Kalokairinos, an ardent amateur Cretan archaeologist, and by Sir Arthur Evans who unearthed the Minoan palace at Knossos in 1900. Linear B consists of ideograms (e.g. representations of men and women), 87 syllabic letters, numerical symbols (decimal system) and symbols of weights and measures (decimal system). In many occasions we encounter a combination of ideograms and syllabic letters. The transcription is done in Latin.


Image Detail
Tranlation of Linear B




Linear B was deciphered not by an archaeologist but by an architect,
Michael Ventris, in 1952. Other experts had tried to do the same but were unsuccessful. To achieve his goal, Ventris relied on the frequency various symbols repeated in the texts.



The Butuan Silver Strip







The metal strip was found inside a wooden coffin by treasure hunters who were looking for ceramic and gold objects that could be sold for high prices to private collectors. According to Dr. Jesus Peralta, similar burials in wooden coffins in the vicinity of Butuan had previously been found to contain human remains with skulls that have been artificially deformed. This practice was apparently limited to Southern Philippines, the beauty standard for such head shapes never finding its way to Luzon.
Ceramics and ornaments were usually placed in the coffins, the ceramic pieces dating from the 14th and 15th centuries. If the metal strip was found within a typical coffin, it would have logically come from the same era.
While the metal piece could have come from foreign shores, the safest and most conservative position one can take is that an artifact belongs in the place where it was found unless it can be proven otherwise.
The letters were cut into the piece of metal with a knife. The difficulty of making curved lines on metal with a knife is apparent in the clumsy shapes of the letters. The strip measures 17.8 x 1.3 cm.

Till this time the writing has been deciphered or the letters have been identified. However it is said that a companion script was also found in the coffin which was kept by the owner bcz he believed that it might lead him to the treasure hoard .
(How he hoped to use that piece to locate the treasure without translating the message is not known. Neither do we know why it is that piece and not the one he gave up that holds the secret) .





Voynich Manuscript

Writing from the Voynich manuscript


The Voynich Manuscript is named after Wilfrid M. Voynich, an antiquarian book dealer who acquired it in 1912. It is lavishly illustrated manuscript codex of 234 pages, written in an unknown script. One theory is that is was written sometime during the 13th century by a Franciscan friar, Roger Bacon (1214-1294). Many attempts have been made to decipher the text but none have succeeded. Some think the manuscript is gibberish, and was probably a practical joke played on Rudolph II.




Indus script

The Indus Valley Civilization was the first major urban culture of South Asia. It reached its peak from 2600 BC to 1900 BC roughly, a period called by some archaeologists "Mature Harappan" as distinguished from the earlier Neolithic "Early Harappan" regional cultures. Spatially, it is huge, comprising of about 1000 settlements of varying sizes, and geographically includes almost all of modern Pakistan, parts of India as far east as Delhi and as far south as Bombay, and parts of Afghanistan.
The main corpus of writing dated from the Indus Civilization is in the form of some two thousand inscribed seals in good, legible conditions. (In case you don't know what seals are, they are used to make impressions on malleable material like clay.)
Although these seals and samples of Indus writing have been floating around the scholastic world for close to 70 years, little progress has been made on deciphering this elegant script. However, we should not blamed for their lack of progress.








These were some scripts i came across lately except the first one (Phaestos) which i read like 3 years back on some website.

I hope you didn't get bored reading all the stuff i have compiled , However i know one can die of boredom if he don't have any interest in History (i Should have put a warning sign at the top but anyway)

Now I'm working on some texts or scripts which were believed to be extraterrestrial and believe may you don't wanna miss that.

And thnx for reading and please do post comments. :)
