hi it's Katrina number 10 gold mummies archaeologists in Egypt recently discovered
two gold wrapped mummies which they believe could help find the mysterious resting place of Queen
Cleopatra the discovery was made in the ancient Port City of tapos Cyrus Magna located just a
few miles along the coast from Alexandria within this city there is a burial ground that was used
for Egyptian royalty during the Greek Hellenistic period that was when Cleopatra reigned as the last
official pharaoh of ancient Egypt the big mystery surrounding the fabled Queen of Egypt is that no
one has ever been able to locate her resting place nobody knows where her tomb is archaeologists are
worried that her tomb was Swept Away during a tsunami in the year 365 A.D Alexandria was hit
by a major natural disaster and it submerged about half the city underwater there is a
pretty good possibility that Cleopatra's tomb was washed away and destroyed and her remains
are long gone however that may not be the case the Golden Wrapped mummies found in the temple
of Tabo Cyrus Magna proved there was a favorite location for burying royalty outside Alexandria
it could be that Cleopatra wasn't buried in the grand city named after Alexander the Great but
down the coastline the issue is that although the burial chamber had been undisturbed for two
thousand years the mummies are in a poor state of preservation because water seeped through
but crucial evidence reveals they were originally covered with gold leaf from head to toe a luxury
afforded only to those from the top tiers of society archaeologists suggest perhaps these two
individuals had interacted with Cleopatra herself and maybe they can lead researchers to her final
resting place number nine Noah's Ark the physical remains of Noah's Ark may have been found almost
150 years ago the very Arc that Noah used to save humanity and two of each animal could be a real
thing and that would change history as we know it Noah's Ark was considered irrefutable science up
until the end of the 1700s just like most biblical Stories the ark was a real historical fact rather
than something made up in a book according to the Bible when the great rain stopped and the
water began to recede into the oceans Noah docked his boat at Mount Ararat in Turkey once there he
opened the doors of his ship and let all the animals out to spread across the new world
and repopulate and so a research team journeyed to the mountain to see if they could find real
archaeological traces of the boat Mount Ararat is a very interesting place it stands over 16
000 feet tall and is about 22 miles out its base it was considered sacred and unclimbable for
centuries the Armenians wouldn't even allow any human to approach it the first recorded
Expedition didn't take place until 1829 because of superstition in 1876 James Bryce tried to climb
the mountain he was an Explorer and historian but not the best Mountaineer he couldn't reach
the peak but he did discover a wooden beam high up in the snow that didn't look like it belonged
there the beam looked like it came from a ship but it was so big that James couldn't bring it
down he returned to England with news of his Discovery but the beam was never seen again
number eight humans and dinosaurs in Kuwait a Shepherd was looking for one of his animals when
he accidentally stumbled upon an archaeological Marvel the man came to the entrance of a cavern
at which point he found prehistoric art scribbled on the wall the shepherd had found himself some
cave art and he didn't think too much of it that was until he realized the artwork showed humans
with Dinosaurs some believe the mysterious cave art in Kuwait proves that humans and dinosaurs
coexisted if true such a discovery would utterly smash just about every scientific theory on the
natural history of the planet Abdul al-shalafi is the paleontologist in charge of the site he
thought the images were just modern graffiti until he did carbon dating analysis and discovered that
the drawings are real and very very old not only that but the images of dinosaurs appear to
be older than the images of the people and the other animals suggesting someone had drawn the
dinosaurs many years earlier al-shalafi went on to say the pictograms could represent real evidence
of humans hunting dinosaurs he even suggested humans might be responsible for the extinction
of dinosaurs by hunting them for millions of years it's a difficult perspective and one that
goes against almost every piece of science that we have but if true it would change everything
and now for number seven but first I want to give a big shout out to Lebo Shirley and Jennifer Joey

number seven the map of the underworld archaeologists have found a coffin in
Egypt that holds the Old Stone map of the underworld the coffin appears to have been
used to hold the body of an unknown Elite female called ankh inside the coffin the earliest known
copy of What's called the book of two ways dating back about 4 000 years was found the book of two
ways was kind of a big deal in ancient Egypt it was a simple text which describes the two
ways a soul could reach the afterlife meaning the Egyptian Underworld the Egyptians really thought
they understood how to reach the underworld they thought the Departed person could follow the map
in their coffin to reach their final destination the issue with reaching the underworld was that
it was extremely difficult the paths were considered treacherous some led to nowhere
and there was even a lake of fire involved that could destroy the person's soul the book of two
ways wasn't a map in the traditional sense but more like a map of the Soul it contained advice
on how to get past the demons and Guardians blocking the way to Eternal peace but of course
it also detailed specific areas the deceased would encounter such as the Abode of the knife
wielders the Gates of Fire and darkness the snake Charmers the path of confusions and so much more
number six Santa's tomb if you've ever wanted proof that Santa Claus is real get ready to
have your mind blown a team of archaeologists in Turkey have finally discovered the very real tomb
of Santa Claus it was found underneath the floor at the Saint Nicholas church in Denver previously
unknown because it was hidden underneath an intricate Mosaic this came as a major Revelation
because up until now nobody had known where Jolly Old Saint Nick had been hiding historical records
showed that he was buried at the same church that bears his name but searches of the grounds over
the centuries never turned up a body other rumors had been swirling that Italian Merchants stole his
body and sold it during the Middle Ages there was an empty grave in the church that had clearly been
looted and the body of a man believed to be Saint Nicholas was laid to rest in Italy during the
Crusades but in the end he was entombed beneath the floor of his very own church for the past
1600 years EX exactly where he was supposed to be as for just who this Santa Claus was he was a
real man who lived between 270 and 343 A.D he was known for giving gifts to the poor so benevolent
he became a saint and later the inspiration for the Santa Claus character number five The Treasure
of el carambolo The Treasure of el carambolo was discovered in the 1950s by workers in El carambolo
Spain the workers discovered 21 giant pieces of gold work dating Back 2 700 years the gold
artifacts were so Exquisite so well crafted and so strikingly beautiful it was assumed they came from
a highly Advanced civilization many believe the gold was a lost treasure from the city of Atlantis
recently researchers from the archaeological Museum of Sevilla confirmed the treasure was made
locally the gold came from Spanish mines meaning it couldn't have possibly come from an outside
civilization instead it was likely the product of the tartesso civilization that flourished
in Spain between the 9th and 6th centuries BC but that doesn't mean the gold had nothing to do with
Atlantis the tartesians are still a major European mystery they were highly Advanced Engineers built
marvelous pieces of architecture and loved gold they were ruled by a powerful King and had a
complex social hierarchy but then they vanished about 2 500 years ago they disappeared as if by
Magic nobody knows what happened to the tarteso civilization but recent excavations at sites in
Old tartesos territory show that the culture was decimated by a tsunami right around the time they
lost their power that sounds an awful lot like what happened to the atlanteans it could very well
be that Atlantis was in Spain and that they were in fact the people of the tartesos civilization
number four the tribe of clover Hollow the oldest civilization in the world might have
once lived in the Appalachian Mountains the Appalachian Mountains are some of the oldest
in the world they were born 325 million years ago when Africa bumped against North America it
was such a dramatic crash that the mountains were dramatically pushed up from sea level
to incredibly high elevations most scientists agree they had once reached elevations higher
than almost any other mountain range in the world except maybe the Himalayas when the first pioneers
began roaming through the Appalachian Wilderness they came across strange evidence of ancient human
beings as far as the Pioneers were concerned they were the first humans to ever live on that land
and yet they kept coming across petroglyphs and mysterious Stone alignments these Oddities seem
to be concentrated around Clover Hollow Mountain two particularly strange Stone alignments can be
seen at sinking Creek on either side of the creek you can find a stone outcrop that looks
like a piece from a gate post these pieces of stone look like they were carved by human hands
and almost seem to have facial features some experts have suggested these were once part
of a great gate that stretched across the creek as a kind of entrance into a city in the Hills
unfortunately there is very little other evidence of ancient humans found there are enough markings
in the area to prove that someone had once been here but it was so long ago that all other proof
has been destroyed or already returned to Nature number three the wabanzi stone
the wabanzi stone is a mystery currently hiding in a museum in Chicago it's a gigantic red granite
Boulder with a face carved onto its surface the face was carved with expert Precision showing
a man with a light beard his eyes squeezed shut and his mouth wide open as if whistling
or singing but that's not even the strangest part above the man's head on the top of the huge block
of stone is a bowl it looks like a basin where you might wash your face or hands but it can't
hold water because the water drains through a hole and comes out through a spout at the bottom of the
carved face there are also two connecting holes on either side of the boulder which may have been
used to attach the boulder to a sea vessel as you can probably imagine this bizarre artifact
has caused a lot of controversy it was allegedly found at the mouth of a river near Lake Michigan
in 1804 nobody knows how old it is exactly with estimates from a few centuries to over
ten thousand years old it weighs roughly three thousand pounds but had once been much larger
when the Chicago Museum first took possession of it they cut a huge part of it off because they
wanted to make it into a drinking fountain we still don't know who carved the waubonsie stone
or what it was used for some have suggested it was an ancient standing Stone in Chicago
some say it was used by early Native Americans for horrific sacrificial purposes and others think it
was brought by a group of Phoenicians across the sea and then left following a failed colony from
the Mediterranean what do you think let me know in the comments below number two Ice Age Britain
the oldest human DNA ever identified in the United Kingdom is changing everything we know about
Britain scientists have obtained the very first DNA from Paleolithic humans in the British Isles
DNA evidence taken from gao's cave and Somerset and from Kendrick's cave in North Wales has
revealed the true original British to completely different populations of humans moved into the
British Isles at the end of the last ice age the populations were culturally distinct they
ate different food and even buried their dead differently the discovery was made thanks to
scientists from the Natural History Museum and the University College London the DNA came from
individuals who lived over 13 500 years ago it's true that prehistoric people lived on the British
Isles long before the last ice age however these two groups represent the first modern humans to
colonize the islands the first group was a culture that spread out from Northwest Europe about 16
000 years ago the second group also appeared from Northwest Europe two thousand years later
but they originated in the near East in other words one group started higher North around
maybe Scandinavia and the other group started closer to Turkey each group then migrated
in roughly a straight line towards Britain and each group settled at a different spot
on the island what this proves is that the original inhabitants of Britain came from
vastly different places and were genetically Worlds Apart number one tabula cortonensis
in 1992 the tabula cortonensis was discovered near the Italian city of kirtun not far from
the alleged Tomb of the famous mathematician Pythagoras the tablet was made 2 200 years
ago and cut into eight tiny fragments it was an instant hit with archaeologists because the text
written on it proved to be a record of a land transfer between two people it was a very old
bill of sale an agreement to transfer one piece of land to another party it's still one of the
longest examples of Etruscan writing ever found this was a huge deal because the lengthy wording
of the document allowed researchers to decode the Lost language of the Etruscans the ancient
people who dominated Northern Italy before the Romans much of the language was already known
but the tabula cortonenses changed things it was written in a distinctly unique dialect for
the region where it was discovered this might not sound that interesting but it proves that
even throughout the various regions in Italy the Etruscans spoke their own specific form
of the language and now we can uncover more secrets thanks for watching be sure to hit
