How many years has humanity lived on our planet? Officially - not so many, some 2.4-2.8 million years. Against the background of 4.6 billion years - the total age of the planet (which, again, has not been conclusively proven) - this figure seems insignificant.
Official science is trying to convince us that in those ancient times, primates of the hominid family ran on Earth in the area of modern Ethiopia. "Homo sapiens" appeared much later - 200-340 thousand years ago, and the first civilizations built their cities 6 thousand years ago.
All researchers who disagree with this theory are considered alternatives, ridiculed in official scientific publications, add the offensive root of the false and the prefix pseudo to their teachings. Nevertheless, the number of works devoted to "inconvenient" artifacts that do not fit into the usual framework and ideas is growing inexorably. There are so many mysterious finds that it is high time to remake the official history. In this article, five artifacts are presented to your attention. Official scientists consider them controversial, anomalous and something that, in principle, should not be.
1. London hammer
In June 1936, the spouses Emma and Max Hahn were walking through the picturesque surroundings of Red Creek in London (Texas, USA). And suddenly they saw a wooden handle sticking out of a piece of rock. The husband and wife brought a curious find home.
It took 11 years before their son decided to break the strange rock. It turned out that an ancient iron hammer was embedded inside the rock, and the family turned to archaeologists for help. The find, to put it mildly, puzzled the specialists. After all, the rock, like a cocoon that kept an iron product, was formed at the end of the Paleozoic era - in the Ordovician period.

Subsequently, the original assumption was corrected, correlating the artifact with the Cretaceous era. This means that people lived on Earth 150 million years ago - and they were not primitive ape-like creatures. However, most of the scientists turned out to be skeptics. In their opinion, the hammer belonged to a miner from the 19th century who was not lucky enough to get out from the collapse.
Everything would be fine, but only the hammer handle partially turned into coal - which means that it has lain in the rock for not a hundred or even a thousand years. The chemical composition of the hammer is also striking: 96.6% iron, 2.6% chlorine and 0.74% sulfur. Modern people still do not know how to obtain such pure iron. It is also surprising that this iron miraculously does not rust.
2. Clay doll inlaid with iron
The find was made in Nampa, Idaho in 1889 while drilling an artesian well. The artifact is 3.8 cm high and is an elaborate replica of a female figure. An unknown artist created the statuette in the Plio-Pleistocene era - 2 million years ago. Official science immediately disowned the find, stating that the statuette was not so deep underground and fell into the drill hole by accident.
3. Bell in the form of a human figure
The artifact was discovered in 1944 in a piece of coal aged from 30 to 300 million years.
4. Artifact from Koso
In 1961, three friends - Mike Meixell, Wallace Lane and Virginia Mexi - traveled to Mount Coso in California in search of beautiful ornamental stones. One of their finds contained a ceramic-like substance with a slice of white metal wire in the center.
The book "Mysteries of Antiquity" gives an accurate description of the artifact: "Under the layer of turtles there was a small prism with a regular hexagonal base 32 mm in diameter made of a soft and fragile material, in it there was a copper spiral, which most likely ran along the entire length of the prism and was partially corroded; the spiral, in turn, encompassed an extremely hard ceramic rod with a diameter of 18 mm, through which a metal rod with a diameter of 2 mm passed."
Representatives of official science write that this is just a geological anomaly. But other researchers enlightened the find with X-rays and found out that it is possibly an ancient spark plug - such are now used in cars. So, half a million years ago people used modern means of transportation?..
5. African spheres from Klerksdorp
In one of the African mines where silver is mined, workers found about a hundred metal balls. Some of them were smooth, while others had three parallel grooves "along the equator".
The spheres differed in color and texture: some were created using hard bluish metal with white spots, while others were hollow balls with a white porous center. They were all extremely hard - the surface could not be scratched even with a metal object. Geology professor A. Bishor said that these are limonite nodules. However, none of the nodules known to science has this hardness or grooves on the surface.
Scientific "batrachomyomachia" lasts more than a dozen years and will continue indefinitely. But, as Michael Baigent wrote, “in some generally accepted interpretations of the prehistoric past of mankind, so much money and scientific reputations have been invested by so many people that they are stubbornly preserved, despite even the steadily growing wave of conflicting data. A theory that needs evidence to be rejected for its survival is not a theory that deserves to be defended."
