According to the interpretation of some fundamentalists, the Bible tells that God created Adam and Eve several thousand years ago. Science reports that this is just fiction, and that man is several million years old, and civilization is tens of thousands of years old. However, could it be that traditional science is as wrong as the biblical stories? There is a large body of archaeological evidence that the history of life on Earth may not be at all similar to that which geological and anthropological texts tell us today.
Consider the following surprising finds:
Corrugated spheres
For the past few decades, miners in South Africa have dug up mysterious metal balls. These balls of unknown origin are approximately an inch (2.54 cm) in diameter, and some of them have three parallel lines engraved along the axis of the object. Two kinds of balls have been found: one is made of a hard bluish metal with white spots, while the other is empty on the inside and filled with a white spongy substance. Interestingly, the rock in which they were discovered dates back to the Precambrian period and dates back to 2.8 billion years! Who made these spheres and for what remains a mystery.
Artifact Koso

While searching for minerals in the California mountains near Olanch in the winter of 1961, Wallace Lane, Virginia Maxie, and Mike Micsell found what they thought was a geode - a good addition to their gem store. However, after cutting the stone, Mikesell found an object inside that looked like white porcelain. In its center was a shaft made of shiny metal. Experts concluded that if it were a geode, it would take about 500,000 years to form, but the object inside was obviously a model of human production.
Further investigation determined that the porcelain was surrounded by a hexagonal body, and X-rays revealed a tiny spring at one end, similar to a spark plug. As you might have guessed, this artifact is surrounded by certain contradictions. Some argue that the item was not inside the geode, but was covered with hardened clay.
The find itself has been identified by experts as a 1920s spark plug. Unfortunately, the Koso artifact has been lost and cannot be studied thoroughly. Is there a natural explanation for this phenomenon? Was it found, as the discoverer claimed, inside a geode? If that's true, then how could a 1920s spark plug get inside a 500,000-year-old stone?
Strange metal objects
Sixty-five million years ago, humans did not exist, let alone someone who knew how to work with metal. Then how does science explain the semi-oval metal pipes dug in France from the Cretaceous chalk?
In 1885, when a piece of coal was broken, a metal cube was discovered, clearly processed by a craftsman. In 1912, power plant workers broke a large piece of coal, from which an iron pot fell. A nail was found in a sandstone block of the Mesozoic era. There are many more similar anomalies. How can these findings be explained? There are several options:
- Reasonable people existed much earlier than we assume
- There is no data in our history about other intelligent beings and civilizations that existed on our Earth
“Our dating methods are completely inaccurate, and these rocks, coal and fossils are forming much faster than we think today.
In any case, these examples - and there are many more - should prompt all curious and unbiased scientists to rethink and rethink the history of life on Earth.
Shoe marks on granite
This fossil footprint was found in a coal seam in Fisher Canyon, Nevada. This coal is estimated to be 15 million years old!
And lest you think that this is a fossil of some animal, the shape of which resembles the sole of a modern shoe, examination of the trace under a microscope revealed clearly visible traces of a double seam line around the perimeter of the shape. The footprint is about size 13 and the right side of the heel looks more worn than the left.
How did the imprint of modern footwear 15 million years ago end up on the substance that later became coal? There are several options:
- The trail was left recently and coal has not been formed for millions of years (with which science does not agree), or …
- Fifteen million years ago there were people (or something like people about whom we have no historical data), walking around in shoes, or …
“Time travelers went back in time and inadvertently left a trail, or …
- This is an elaborate prank.
Ancient footprint
Today, such footprints can be seen on any beach or muddy ground. But this footprint - clearly anatomically similar to that of modern humans - is frozen in stone, which is estimated to be about 290 million years old.
The discovery was made in 1987 in New Mexico by paleontologist Jeri MacDonald. He also found footprints of birds and animals, but found it difficult to explain how this modern footprint ended up on the Permian rock, which, according to experts, is 290-248 million years old. According to modern scientific thinking, it was formed long before humans (or even birds and dinosaurs) appeared on this planet.
In a 1992 Smithsonian Magazine article on the find, it was noted that paleontologists call such anomalies "problematica." In fact, they are big problems for scientists.
This is the white crow theory: all you have to do to prove that not all crows are black is just to find one white.
Likewise, to challenge modern human history (or perhaps our way of establishing the age of rock strata), we need to find a fossil like this. However, scientists just put such artifacts on the back burner, call them "problematica" and move on with their adamant beliefs, because reality is too inconvenient.
Is this science correct?
Ancient springs, screws and metal
They are similar to the items found in the scrap box in any workshop.
Obviously, these artifacts were made by someone. However, this collection of springs, hinges, coils and other metal objects has been found in sedimentary layers that are one hundred thousand years old! Foundries were not very common at the time.
Thousands of these things - some one thousandth of an inch! - were discovered by gold prospectors in the Ural Mountains of Russia in the 1990s. Excavated from 3 to 40 feet deep in the upper Pleistocene layers of earth, these mysterious objects may have been created between 20,000 and 100,000 years ago.
Could they be proof of the existence of a long-lost but advanced civilization?
Metal rod in stone
How can one explain the fact that the stone formed around a mysterious metal rod?
Inside the hard black stone found by the collector of stones Zhillin Wang in the Chinese Mazong mountains, for some unknown reason, there was a metal rod of unknown origin.
The rod has a thread like a screw, which indicates that the item was made, but the fact that it was in the ground long enough for solid rock to form around it means that it must be millions of years old.
There were suggestions that the stone is a meteorite that fell to Earth from space, that is, the artifact may be of alien origin.
It is noteworthy that this is not the only case of detecting metal screws in hard rocks; there are many other examples:
- In the early 2000s, on the outskirts of Moscow, a strange stone was found, inside which there were two objects similar to screws
- X-ray examination of another stone found in Russia found eight screws in it!
Williams Fork
A man named John Williams revealed that he found this artifact while walking in a remote countryside. He was in shorts, and passing through the thickets of bushes looked down to check how much he had scratched his legs. It was then that he noticed a strange stone.
The stone itself is ordinary - despite the fact that some manufactured thing is built into it. Whatever it is, three metal prongs stick out of it, as if it were some kind of fork.
The place where Williams found the artifact, he said, was “at least 25 feet from the nearest road (which was muddy and subtle), and there were no urban areas, industrial complexes, power plants, nuclear power plants, airports, or military operations (about which I wish I knew).
The stone consists of natural quartz and feldspar granite, and according to geology, such stones are not formed for decades, which would be required if the anomalous object was made by a modern man. According to Williams' calculations, the stone was about one hundred thousand years old.
Who could have made such an object in those days?
Aluminum artifact from Ayud
This five-pound, eight-inch-long piece of solid, nearly pure aluminum would have been found in Romania in 1974. Workers digging a trench along the Mures River found several bones of a mastodon and this mysterious object that still puzzles scientists.
Obviously made and not naturally occurring, the artifact was sent for analysis, which found it to be 89 percent aluminum with traces of copper, zinc, lead, cadmium, nickel and other elements. In this form, aluminum does not exist in nature. It must have been made, but no such aluminum was made until the 1800s.
If the artifact is the same age as the bones of a mastodon, it means that it is at least 11 thousand years old, because it was then that the last representatives of the mastodon died out. Analysis of the oxidized layer that covered the artifact determined that it was 300-400 years old - that is, it was created much earlier than the aluminum processing process was invented.
So who made this item? And what was it used for? There are those who immediately suggested the alien origin of the artifact … however, the facts are still unknown.
It is strange (or maybe not) that the mysterious object was hidden somewhere and today it is not available for public viewing or further research.
Piri Reis Map
This map, rediscovered in a Turkish museum in 1929, is a mystery not only because of its astonishing accuracy, but also because of what it depicts.
Drawn on the skin of a gazelle, the Piri Reis map is the only surviving portion of the larger map. It was compiled in the 1500s, according to the inscription on the map itself, from other maps of the three hundredth year. But how is this possible if the map shows:
- South America precisely located in relation to Africa
- West coasts of North Africa and Europe, and the east coast of Brazil
Most striking is the partially visible continent far to the South, where we know Antarctica is located, although it was not discovered until 1820. Even more mysterious is that it is depicted in detail and without ice, although this land mass has been covered with ice for at least six thousand years.
This artifact is also not available for public viewing today.
Petrified hammer
The head and part of the handle of a hammer was found near the city of London, Texas in 1936.
The find was made by Mr. and Mrs. Khan near Red Bay when they noticed a piece of wood sticking out of the stone. In 1947, their son broke a stone, revealing a hammerhead inside.
For archaeologists, this tool presents a challenge: the calcareous rock containing the artifact is estimated to be 110-115 million years old. The wooden handle is petrified like ancient petrified wood, and the hammer head, made of solid iron, is of a comparatively modern type.
The only possible scientific explanation was given by John Cole, a researcher at the National Center for Science Education:
In 1985, the scientist wrote:
“The rock is real, and to anyone unfamiliar with the geological process it looks impressive. How could a modern artifact get stuck in an Ordovician stone? The answer is that the stone does not belong to the Ordovician period. Minerals in solution can solidify around an object trapped in this solution, falling into a crevice or simply left on the ground, if the parent rock (in this case, according to the available data, Ordovician) is chemically soluble."
In other words, the dissolved pieces of rock have solidified around the modern hammer, which may be the hammer of a miner from the 1800s.
And what do you think? A modern hammer … or the hammer of an ancient civilization?
