In Florida, quite by accident, a mask was discovered, which is 10,000-12,000 years old. It is made of extraterrestrial metal, and its existence confirms the presence of an ancient treasure worth 5.5 billion dollars somewhere along the coast.
This find was found on the coast, and it literally washed out with water. Treasure hunters have unearthed this amazing thing at Melbourne Beach. Scientists have already studied the ancient mask and established its approximate age from 10 to 12 thousand years. It is paper thin and made of iridium, a rare metal of extraterrestrial origin.
Researchers have suggested that this mask belonged to an ancient culture and was used during religious rituals. Most likely, the mask depicts the Inca god Viracocha, who is considered one of the most important deities among the peoples of South America. According to myths, Viracocha is a creator deity who rose from Lake Titicaca during the darkness and brought light. He created the Sun, Moon and stars, and then all of humanity from stone.
Viracoce did not like the first creations so much that he destroyed all the giants with a massive flood. Then he made new people out of small stones. Most likely this mask was used for the rituals of worshiping Viracocha. As the researchers suggested, the mask was stolen by the conquistadors and was part of a huge cargo of looted items that were to be transported to Spain.
The looted treasure never made it to Spain, as the ship La Concepcion was damaged by a hurricane in 1715 and sank. Since they managed to find a mask with the help of a metal detector, historians believe that the rest of the treasure is located somewhere nearby.
The thin sheet of the mask was plated with gold and copper, and the alloy contains iridium, which is only found in meteorites. It turns out that this mask is the earliest proof that the ancient inhabitants of Mesoamerica were able to extract extraterrestrial materials.
