Ancient megalithic structures are found all over the world. This has long been known to
everyone who once saw them. Let it be in pictures on the web or with your own eyes.
And there are a lot of such megaliths that have common features, even in Europe and Asia,
even in the Americas. However, until now, historical science presents them as erected
in a certain era by the people who lived there. Incas in South America, Ainu in Japan,
Minoans in Crete, Ajiviks in India, etc. Hi friend. You are on the KirTop channel.
Oldest shark attack victim Sharks do not attack people as
often as shown in the films, but sometimes it does happen. And most importantly, albeit occasionally,
but sharks always attacked people. This is confirmed by the bones of 3000 years ago.
The skeleton was found at the Tsukumo Shell excavation site near the Inland Sea of
​​Japan in the early 20th century. But then the researchers failed to explain the bone injuries.
And these bones - Tsukumo 24 - were rediscovered by archaeologists from
the University of Oxford (Great Britain), who study cruelty in prehistoric Japan.
In total, scientists have counted on the bones at least 790 deep marks with jagged edges.
Most of them were on the arms, legs and chest. The skeleton was missing a left hand and right leg.
At the same time, the left leg was placed in the grave over the body,
but in the opposite direction (with the foot to the body).
At the same time, there are no traces of healing on the traces.
The number of injuries was staggering, but the man was buried in the cemetery.
At that time, the locals were still using stone tools. The footprints on the bones
did not resemble the marks of stone tools or the teeth marks of local predators and scavengers.
Unfortunately, the tracks are superimposed on each other, so it is impossible to determine the exact
shape of the jaw - and then the specific type of shark. Scientists have studied the skeleton
itself. This was a young man who lived between 1310-1010 BC. Judging by the fact that the shark's
teeth left marks on the bones, the arteries were also severed. The man died very quickly.
Mysterious family grave A group of Siberian archaeologists have discovered
an unusual family burial in Khakassia, which is about 2500 years old. Presumably, a husband and
wife with a newborn child and an elderly maid were buried in the grave. As determined by experts,
the burial belongs to the Tagar culture, and can shed light on the Scythian civilization.
At the time of death, the husband and wife were about 30 years old,
and their maid - 60. The remains of the baby were scattered throughout the grave - most
likely due to the activities of rodents. Archaeologists also suggest that both spouses
were warriors - the same weapon was found in their hands. This surprised the specialists - in
the burials of the same time in these places, female warriors were buried with bows and arrows,
long-range weapons. However, in this grave, the woman carried an ax and a short sword,
which are suitable for close combat. The man was found to have two axes and two bronze daggers.
Experts attribute the burial to the Tagar culture - an archaeological culture
of the Bronze Age and Iron Age (VIII-III centuries BC). According to archaeologists,
the find may shed light on the life of the ancient Scythian civilization that existed 2200 years ago,
and is suitable for presentation in a museum. In addition to skeletons,
rare objects of the Tagar culture were found in the grave - knives, mirrors, a horny comb.
110 graves in the Nile Delta
The Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities told about a new find made at the archaeological
site of Qum al-Khulgan in Dakahliya province, about 150 kilometers northeast of Cairo.
Archaeologists have unearthed 110 tombs; some have preserved human remains.
68 tombs of this number belong to the pre-dynastic period of the civilization
of Lower Egypt, which spans 6000-3150 BC. These are oval-shaped pits carved into the sandstone.
The people buried in them were located mainly on the left side with bent knees;
their head was facing west. The burial of a child in a ceramic vessel was also found here.
The 37 rectangular tombs date from the ancient era known as the Second Intermediate Period (1782-1570
BC), when the Hyksos ruled ancient Egypt. The depth of the burial pits is 20-85 cm,
and the bodies in them were laid in an extended position, face up, but also in a
westerly direction. Children who died during this period were buried in coffins or clay vessels.
And five more oval tombs are evidence of the culture of Negada III (3200-3000 BC). Pottery,
amulets, jewelry and other interesting artifacts were found in these and other graves.
Little-known Inca fortress in Peru In Peru, next to the southern plateau of
the Sacred Valley, near the Four Lakes region, is the Waqrapukara Inca fortress. The complex
is located in the province of Acomayo, Cuzco. In the Quechua language, "Waqrapukara" means:
"wakra" is the horn, and "pukara" is the equivalent of strength (fortress), that is,
"Fortress of the Horn". Looking at this place, the name of the fortress is more than eloquent.
But the shepherds of the communities of Ako, south of the city of Cuzco,
also know him as "Lamapucara". These are not horns, they assure, but the ears of a llama,
which is wary of the presence of strangers. Despite the almost inaccessible location of
the fortress at the top of the peak above the abysses that overlook the Apurimak
River canyon and are at an altitude of more than 4000 meters above sea level,
at least four ancient roads lead to this place. The best preserved stone walls with fine carvings,
stairs, terraces and rooms in the best classical Inca style. Unfortunately,
the remoteness of this magnificent architectural complex makes it less famous than other monuments
such as Sacsayhuaman, Ollantaytambo and others. The fortress itself is located at an altitude of
4300 meters above sea level, it rises above eight wall terraces and stone stairs. The architectural
complex offers a magnificent view of the Apurimak river valley. Vakrapukara is located in the
distance, and to get to it, you need to spend 5-6 hours on the road, half of them on foot.
The architecture of Vakrapukara combines masonry and natural formations, and in this way resembles
Machu Picchu. The fortress itself consists of two groups of architectural structures.
The Wakrapukara fortress has a certain stealthiness, and in addition to its
defensive function, it may have been a refuge and an astronomical observatory.
There is also a version that this architectural complex was associated with rituals for the
development of agricultural activities and astronomical observations. This version is
supported by the fact that the structures of this place are oriented towards the sunrise.
"Ship" of Cheops The Great Pyramid of Cheops
has always attracted the attention of not only the entire scientific world, but also ordinary people.
After all, to see with your own eyes one of the greatest mysteries of the planet
is something. It hides many secrets and mysteries that have no end and edge. Every scientist dreams
of making a unique discovery about it. Sometimes this takes not days and months, but years.
Here is proof of this, a group of archaeologists, consisting of Egyptian-Japanese archaeologists,
announced the completion of excavations at the walls of the pyramid of Cheops,
which lasted for 15 years. They found the remains of a burial ship and for so many years
they have been removing them from the ground. The work was very painstaking, but it was worth
it. In total, archaeologists were able to find and extract from the earth about 1750
wooden parts of the ship. As they were taken out, they were immediately transported to the museum,
where a whole team of specialists worked on them, which reconstructed
and preserved the parts of the ship. It turns out that the work of archaeologists and museum
specialists was carried out in parallel. Museum specialists received about 1300
items for work, they plan to study them in as much detail as possible, and then try to reassemble the
burial ship that has decayed over the millennia. For this purpose, about 100 Japanese experts are
involved and they use high-tech equipment in their work, scientists pin great hopes on their help.
Scientists said that when they assemble the ship, it will be exhibited in a new museum building,
which is currently still under construction for everyone to see.
Mini "Terracotta Army" Inside the 2,100-year-old pit,
Chinese archaeologists have uncovered a miniature army: elaborate chariots, watchtowers, and tiny
statues of cavalrymen, infantrymen, and musicians. The find looks like a miniature version of the
Terracotta Army - a life-size collection of chariots and sculptures of soldiers, horses,
artists and civilian officials, which was created for Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China.
Based on the design of the artifacts found, archaeologists believe they were made about 2,100
years ago, or about a century after the Terracotta Army. The southern part of the pit is filled with
cavalry and chariot formations, as well as models of watchtowers 140 centimeters high.
In the center of the pit, about 300 infantrymen stand in a square formation, and in the northern
part of the pit there is a model of a theater pavilion with small sculptures of musicians.
Based on the date, size, and location of the pit, archaeologists believe that this army
may have been built for Liu Hong, Prince of Qi (part of China), who was the son of Emperor Wu Di
(reigned 141-87 BC). Hong lived in Linz, a Chinese city near an open pit, and died in 110 BC.
"The ancient texts say that Liu Hong became Prince of Qi very young and, unfortunately,
died early without leaving any successor." Shortly before Hong's death,
according to the works of the ancient historian Ban Gu, a comet appeared in the sky over China.
If the pit and its ceramic army were to protect Liu Hong
or some other noble person in the afterlife,
then the grave must be somewhere nearby, although the tomb could have been destroyed.
Some of the rulers of the Han Dynasty continued to build pits with armies of
ceramic soldiers for their burials, but the soldiers were already much smaller.
Stele of Naramsina In Akkad there was a king
whose name was Naram-Suen, which in translation from the Akkadian language means "Favorite Sina".
In local mythology, Sin was the god of the moon. Naramsin ruled around 2237-2200 BC. The
activities of the king are known from literary monuments, which were written in the Sumerian,
Hittite, Akkadian languages. There are also preserved inscriptions of Naramsin himself,
for example, in the temple of Lagash. There are sources that tell of the defeats
of Naramsin. So, he sent people three times against the troops of Manda, who were located
in the area of ​​Lake Urmia. He was perplexed and depressed by several defeats, but as a result he
was still able to defeat the enemy. During the reign of Naramsin,
the Akkadian kingdom was able to achieve the greatest power. The king ruled over all the
occupied territories with the help of sons and officials, whom he appointed to the post of ensi.
His daughters were priestesses, so they could also influence political life. The end of the reign of
Naramsin is associated with the invasion of the mountain tribes of the Gutians. This led to the
fact that famine, epidemics, multiple deaths among the population began in the kingdom.
The victorious stele of King Naramsin has a spiral structure of figures on a plane.
In this it differs significantly from the Sumerian technique of creating a composition.
Military operations in the mountains were chosen for the plot. The stele itself resembles the top
of a mountain, tapering towards the top. The creation consists of three compositional lines.
They run almost parallel from bottom to top. This made it possible to show the path of the
army of Naramsin, his ascent to the top of the mountain. The king's warriors ascend the parallel
slopes. This practically does not happen in life, usually people climb winding spiral roads. Also,
the place of transition from slope to slope is not indicated.
"House of the Dragon" The "House of the Dragon"
is located in the south of the island of Euboea, located off the eastern coast of mainland Greece.
There are 25 of them in total. The houses themselves are rectangular structures made
of huge megalithic limestone blocks, one above the other without any mortar. The gaps between
the blocks are filled with other smaller stones, and the roof is covered with similarly large
stone slabs with a small gap for lighting. They are called "Houses of Dragons" because
local legend attributes to their creators unknown superhuman abilities. Because it
takes into account the size of the stone blocks used in the construction process. It is believed
that ordinary people could not build them. The mysterious "Dragon Houses" on Mount Ochi
are located at an altitude of 1386 m and have an average size of 12.7 by 7.7 m with a door in the
center of the southern wall, which is 2 m high and 1 m wide. protruding over her. There are
even small windows on the sides of the door. The walls have an average thickness of 1.4 m,
suitable for supporting a heavy stone roof, and the interior rises to an average height
of about 2.4 m. The building area is 48 sqm and the entire floor is covered with stone slabs.
According to experts, the three "Dragon Houses" in Palli Lakka are very similar in size to the houses
of Mount Ochi, but their walls are thinner, on average only 1.1 m. The stone blocks used
are also smaller. And the style of construction is rougher, less complex and, possibly, more ancient.
The houses were first described in the late 18th century by the British geologist John Hawkins, who
climbed Mount Ochi on October 21, 1797. However, there is still no exact dating of these buildings.
Some scholars believe that they can be dated back to the 7th century BC, as they are the forerunners
of the later Greek temples. Others consider them defensive structures of the Hellenistic period,
3-4th century BC. However, experts cannot come to a consensus regarding their dating,
and the lack of quarries from where the blocks were mined makes it difficult for them to work.
The only strange thing is that, despite their supermassive size and complex structural elements,
there is absolutely no mention of these buildings in ancient sources. Therefore,
all available information is obtained from the legends and folklore of the area where they were
built, as well as information from researchers who visited these structures at a later time.
In general, everything is as usual. No one knows anything, but scientists do not believe
local legends, because they tell about builders with superhuman abilities. But it seems to me
that they were built by an older highly developed civilization and left such traces of its existence
in Greece. And it is quite possible that these are just houses, and not observatories at all.
