Every once in a while archaeologists (and sometimes regular Joes) make some remarkable

discoveries. Stunned, they are often unable to explain what it is theyve found, how it came

into existence, or ascertain its value. This is a comprehensive list of such artifacts; artifactsthat many believe should have never existed given the discerned age/period of their

creation.

The London hammera tool older than history

In June 1936 (or 1934 according to some accounts), Max Hahn and his wife Emma were on

a walk when they noticed a rock with wood protruding from its core. They decided to take

the oddity home and later cracked it open with a hammer and a chisel. Ironically, what theyfound within seemed to be an archaic hammer of sorts. A team of archaeologists checked it,

and as it turns out, the rock encasing the hammer was dated back more than 400 million

year; the hammer itself turned out to be more than 500 million years old. Additionally, a

section of the handle has begun the transformation to coal. Creationists, of course, were all

over this. The hammers head, made of more than 96% iron, is far more pure than anything

nature could have achieved without an assist from modern technology.

The Antikythera mechanism a Greek ancient computer

The Antikythera mechanismhas been labeled the first known mechanical computer. Found in a shipwreck off the Greek

island of Antikythera, it was designed to calculate astronomical positions. Consisting of a

box with dials on the outside and a very complex

assembly of gear wheels mounted within, its about as complex as an 18th century top-

notch clock. The level of sophistication utilized by the device has forced scientists to acceptthat their perceptions of ancient Greek engineering may be faulty. Nothing similar to this

exists or is mentioned in any known writings from the period of its creation. Based on the

knowledge we do have, this mechanism shouldnt even exist. According to Professor

Michael Edmunds of Cardiff University, who led the team studying the mechanism:

This device is just extraordinary, the only thing of its kind. The design is beautiful, the

astronomy is exactly right. The way the mechanics are designed just makes your jaw drop.

Whoever has done this has done it extremely carefully. He added: in terms of historicand scarcity value, I have to regard this mechanism as being more valuable than the Mona

Lisa.

The Dropa Stones

In 1938, an expedition led

by archaeologist Dr. Chi Pu Tei into the Baian-Kara-Ula in China made an astonishing

discovery. Nearby caves held traces of the ancient culture which once occupied them.

Buried by the dusts of time, hundreds of stone disks lay scattered about the caves interior.Nothing too spectacular you may think, but the disks turned out to be eerily similar to

phonograph recordsnine inches in diameter, a circle cut into their centers and an

obvious spiral groove. They are believed to be more than 10,000 years old. But the spiral,as it turns out, is composed of tiny hieroglyphics. When studied and translated, it was

revealed that the discs tell the amazing story of spaceships that crashed into the mountains,

piloted by people who called themselves the Dropa.

Discovered during the 1898 excavation of the

Pa-di-Imen tomb in Saqqara, Egypt, the Saqqara bird is (as you could have guessed) a birdshaped artifact made from the wood of a sycamore tree. Weighing in at just under 40 grams

and with a wingspan of more than 7 inches, its been dated back to approximately 200 BC.

Lack of documentation and other data has led to some speculation. In fact, the ancient

egyptians were well aware of the principles of aviation. Was it simply the toy of an affluentEgyptian child? Did it serve some kind of ceremonial purpose? Regardless, the object has

few realistic bird traits. With its vertical tail, resembling that of an airplane or glider, it

resembles no known bird. Scientists came to the conclusion that it couldnt be effective asan aircraft due to lack of technology, but it could have in fact been a glider.

The Baghdad battery a 2000 year old battery

This device consists of a 5-1/2-inch highclay vessel, inside of which was a copper cylinder held in place by asphalt. Within thecylinder, archaeologists found an oxidized iron rod. In 1940, Wilhelm Knig (the German

director of the National Museum of Iraq) suggested that these could be galvanic cells,

perhaps used for electroplating gold onto silver objects. Nobody has been able to prove him

wrong, especially since it only needed to be filled with an acid or alkaline substance toproduce an electric charge.

Unexplainable fossils and metal objects

Geology is a relatively new science. The progress and developments made through

experimentation are absolutely remarkable and have helped in many other fields. Still, thereare some things yet to be explained. Though the honeycomb pattern of paleodictyon is

already well known, we remain stumped as to the creation of such and more questions are

being raised.

For example, a fossil of a human handprint was found in limestone estimated to be more

than 110 million years, a fossilized human finger with just as much, and the aparentdiscovery of a human footprint that possibly sported a sandal which dates to more than 300

million years ago. These amazing fossilized imprints/remains have left the scientific

community scratching their collective heads. Not to mention the 65 million year old semi-

ovoid metallic tubes being dug out of France, the unusual block of coal discovered 124

years ago which contained a metal cube that couldnt have formed naturally within thelump, andmany more such things

In 1929, a group of

historians made what can only be described as an amazing discovery, written on the skin of

a gazelle. After study and research, they found that it is a genuine map drawn in 1513 byPiri Reis, a well documented admiral of the Turkish navy. He depicts Europe and North

Africa, the coast of Brazil, several islands (Azores, Canary Islands, and the mythical island

of Antilia), and even Antarctica, which was thought to be discovered more than 300 years

later. The most puzzling thing is not that it shows we need to rethink the chronology for a

number of exploratory discoveries, but that it describes Antarcticas topography as notbeing masked by ice and in great detail. The last time that occured was more than 6000

years ago. Tell me then. How did a Turkish admiral from half a millenium ago map a

continent thats been covered by ice for the last 6000 years?

The Nazca drawings

The Nazca

drawings (or lines) definitely have something otherworldly about them. Discovered in 1930

when the US inaugurated two new commercial linesthey cover 450 square km and

some measure more than 200m in length. They depict lines, geometrical figures, animals

and figures that we havent entirely figured out yet (many believe them to be

constellations). Whether made for the gods or for some other reason, its obvious that theywere meant to be seen from the sky. Scientists have had trouble trying to figure out how

they could have been designed and created without somebody directing the work from

above. We can only marvel at these amazing figures and continue to wonder how and why

they were created by a people called the Nasca.

The city of NanMadol was built between 200 B.C.800 A.D., on a coral reef near Micronesia. It consisted

of about 100 artificial islands made from huge basalt blocks and connected with viaducts.

From the start, it dazzles us with a mix of the bizarre and grandeur. From the start it seems

incongruous; 250 million tons of offshore basalt in the middle of nowhere. How were thesehuge blocks quarried, transported, and placed in the perfect spot? Even by todaysstandards, it would an impressive engineering feat. Additionally, the reasoning behind its

development remains a mystery. Archaelogists have few clues as to what happened to thecivilization responsibile for its creation.

Near the city of

Cuzco, more than 3500 meters above sea level, these amazing walls first fascinated the

Spanish conquistadores. They were astonished to discover how these people who,

according to them, were ignorant and lacked the ability of logical reasoning

required to have built such

wonders. They are in fact 3 concentric walls, the average being roughly 360 meters in

length and 6 meters in height, made from limestone blocks that weigh about 300 tons each.

They didnt use mortar or any other kind of cement to bind the walls, but they are carvedand placed in such a way packed so closely that even a sharp knife cant be wedged

between 2 blocks. Scientists have tried to achieve this at a much smaller scale and havefailed in their efforts to replicate the tight joints of the Sacsayhuaman walls.
