Some scientists associate the roots of knowledge with a mysterious prehistoric civilization. Studying the available information about the secrets of antiquity, the researchers divided it into several groups. The first included facts indicating an unusually high level of knowledge possessed by the ancients.
Some knowledge of peoples is surprising, too unexpected for its long time, and most importantly, it does not have roots, as if brought in from the outside. This applies to astronomy and mechanics, metallurgy and medicine, agricultural engineering and stone architecture.
Ancient Egypt - a country of secrets and mysterious knowledge - is quite connected with "praculture". For a long time, scientists have been attracted by the mathematical "code", supposedly embedded in the proportions of the Great Egyptian pyramid. Even during the Napoleonic Wars in Egypt, it was discovered that the pyramid was oriented exactly along the polar axis of the Earth. The pyramid could be used as an observatory, calendar, or a giant sundial. Egyptologist P. Tomkins wrote: “The one who built the Khufu pyramid knew how to make excellent maps of the starry sky and use the stars to correctly calculate longitude, build maps of the planet and, therefore, freely move around the Earth - across its continents and oceans. There is a certain connection between the initial knowledge of those who commanded the construction of the Great Pyramid, and those who created the ancient maps of the seas, more accurate and detailed,than those that have survived to this day."
The Arab historian of the 9th century Ibn Abd Hoqm left a record relating to the history of the construction of the pyramids: "The majority agree that the first pyramids were built by Sorid ibn Salkj, the pharaoh of Egypt, who ruled three hundred years before the flood." The ancient author writes that Sorid (Zarid) possessed stainless weapons as well as shatterproof glass that could be bent. From this text it is clear that the author, 1000 years before the invention of stainless steel and plastics, should have known about their existence. From whom did he learn about this, from whom did the creators of the first majestic pyramids learn these secrets?
The mathematical precision in the design of the Egyptian pyramids is based, as the American engineer Connolly claims, on the unconscious inclusion of the number pi in the calculations. The British physicist K. Mendelssohn poses the question: how, without modern scientific instruments, the ancient Egyptians could determine the direction to the desired point in the air and build directly towards it? A mistake of even two degrees could lead to disastrous results in the end.
On the walls of the Egyptian temple of Dendera, bas-reliefs and even more mysterious hieroglyphs were carved. The most striking thing is that the signs of the zodiac were found on the ceiling of the temple. A large circular zodiac, about one and a half meters in diameter, represented an image of a stellar planisphere (a moving map of the starry world). Scientists have made beautiful sketches from him. It has been argued that the signs of the zodiac are 4000 years BC apart.

Amazing structures on earth - Saxahuaman fortress and cave city in Peru. The fame of the builders of the Egyptian pyramids pales when looking at this fortress. It is made up of gigantic, carefully matched stone blocks, one of which is about the size of a three-story building and weighs at least 150 tons. How did the ancient craftsmen manage to deliver it tens of kilometers away from the place where the blocks were mined? After all, they had to overcome rivers, uneven terrain, and then - to lift this block up the mountain. All the old chronicles unanimously state that the gigantic cities in the Andes were built many centuries before the advent of the Incas. The transportation of huge stones over long distances is usually attributed to some kind of lost power of levitation, but the builders allegedly possessed some kind of decomposing substance obtained from certain herbs.able to soften stones into pliable clay, which easily took the given forms, which then again turned into a homogeneous solid material. With this technology, it was possible to solve the most insurmountable, seemingly, problems. The multi-ton stones in the fortress are so closely fitted to each other that a safety razor blade cannot be pushed further between them. According to the supporters of the Paleovisite, the human technology of antiquity could not provide such a filigree work. There is an assumption that such mountainous Peruvian citadels were built by some ancient race to protect against the people of space.that a safety razor blade cannot be inserted between them.

But even more than the walls of Saxahuaman, our contemporaries are surprised by the absolutely unique, completely unique city in the rock, located a few hundred meters above the fortress. Rectangular and angular grottoes, rooms and passages are carved into granite rocks here. They form a whole cave city, consisting of hundreds of corridors and rooms. Moreover, the walls of his rooms are polished to a mirror finish. But this is granite. Even with the help of modern technology, it would take enormous efforts to create such a structure.
While traveling in India, many tourists tend to visit Ahmedabad. There are two 11th century minarets here. They are as high as a seven-storey building - 23 meters, the distance between them is 3 meters. When tourists climb one of the towers, the guide climbs the other and begins to swing it. The first tower immediately starts to move, surprising and frightening visitors. An even greater mystery for specialists remains the technology of making bricks, from which the foundation of the temple is made. Fired in a special way, it is not afraid of moisture, withstands a huge load and, what is most amazing, does not sink in water. To create such a system of towers, intuition alone is not enough. And if we agree that the ancient architects possessed accurate calculation methods, then the conclusion involuntarily suggests itself: once there was a civilization with a very high level of development.
Ellen Aristarchus of Samos concluded that the Sun, not the Earth, is the center of the universe. All planets, including the Earth, revolve around the Sun, and their orbits are circular. Aristarchus taught: “The Sun is 300 times larger than the Earth, it is about 20 times farther from us than the Moon. The bold teaching of Aristarchus was soon consigned to oblivion.
Some scholars believe that the first version of the Surya Sidhanta book is about five thousand years old. However, in it the diameter of the Earth and the distance to the Moon are determined with an error of no more than one percent.
Thales of Miletus believed that the stars are other worlds, and his student Anaximander argued that the number of these worlds is infinite: some of them are born, others die. Much earlier, the ancient Aryans created the most monumental monument to writing - the Vedas. In the “Cosmogonic Hymn of the Rig Veda” the infinity of the world in time and space, as well as the emergence and development of the Universe from the “cosmic egg”, is predicted.
Even modern instruments cannot detect the very inhabited worlds that generations of ancient thinkers and scientists dreamed of. Terrestrial planets, alas, do not lend themselves to direct observation. Only the presence of large satellites of stars can be judged by indirect signs.
Such knowledge of ancient peoples amazes scientists so much that they even put forward a hypothesis about the existence in antiquity of a people who possessed incredibly great knowledge in the field of astronomy. The people disappeared, but some of the information known to him remained to live for centuries. Such a hypothesis, in particular, was mentioned by the great German mathematician and astronomer Karl Gauss (1777-1855). However, historians do not know anything about this people. Our version about aliens from the past just tells about such a people.
During their stay on Earth, aliens from the past (representatives of the Mesozoic civilization) tried to transfer their knowledge to people. But this stock of information, given the extremely low culture and underdeveloped technology of early human society, was extremely difficult to apply, so they could not be durable. The only exception was some information on astronomy, because further the most primitive nomadic tribes needed to be able to navigate by the stars. People have carefully stored astronomical information from the very deepest antiquity, therefore, it is the information on astronomy reported by aliens from the past that could have the greatest chances of being preserved.
This is confirmed by the find made at the end of 1900. From the sunken ship, underwater archaeologists raised a mysterious mechanism, the symbols on which said that it can be attributed to the 1st century BC. The principle of operation and purpose of this mechanism, which consisted of about twenty gears, remained unclear for a long time. It took a lot of work to establish: with the help of this device it is possible to determine the time of sunrise and sunset of the Sun and the Moon, to calculate the motion of the planets of the solar system. In fact, in the hands of scientists was a kind of calculating machine. Apparently, with its help, the captains of the ships navigated the sea, checking their way with the movement of stars and planets across the sky. The engineers also became interested in the unusual mechanism. They noticed that the teeth of his gears were cut exactly at an angle of 60 degrees. And then, having studied other details,came to the conclusion: they could not be done manually. It turned out that the ancient Greeks had equipment for the serial production of such mechanisms.
Not only seafarers, but also travelers by land had to navigate by the stars. But then, one asks, why did the ancient African Dogon tribe need amazing information about the Sirius star system.
According to the legends of the tribe, the period of circulation of the satellites of Sirius is 50 years. And modern research has shown that it is equal to 49.9 years. Many other data coincide, which the Dogon confidently cite and which scientists can verify only today. For example, legends speak of the monstrous density of the substance of this star, of the spiral structure of stellar worlds, of which there are infinitely many in the Universe. There are also statements about the existence of planets inhabited by intelligent beings. Where does this knowledge of the African tribe come from, if even modern science cannot yet fully verify it?
Some researchers believe that even in the Paleolithic or Mesolithic conditions, astronomical knowledge, as well as visual arts, could have developed. The first assumption is supported by the famous megalithic structure in England - Stonehenge. Some see the proportions of the British megalith as the distance between the planets of the solar system.
