6 historical findings, which are still not solved

Human history is more than a thousand millennia, but scientists still do not know the answers to many questions. Artifacts found during archaeological excavations, experts are forced to guess, making the search for the truth becomes even more interesting.

AdMe.ru offers to meet with the most remarkable findings is still not solved by science.

Giant stone balls of Costa Rica

Mysterious rock formations perfectly round shape is intriguing not only for its views but for its unknown origin.

They were first discovered in the 30-ies of XX century, when workers clearing the jungle under banana plantations. Local legend says that inside the mysterious stone balls had to be hidden gold. Many petroperu was split, some of them blown up. But they were empty.

It is unknown by whom and for what purpose they were created these petroperu. It can be assumed that they were symbols of heavenly bodies or indicate the boundaries between the lands of different tribes.

The Baghdad battery

Before the discovery of electricity the first odds given mesopotamy. In the 30-ies of XX century archeological excavations near Baghdad had discovered a mysterious artifact, called the "Baghdad battery". He had the following views: 13-inch vessel through the neck of which was held an iron rod with traces of corrosion. Inside the vessel was a copper cylinder and inside the cylinder there is an iron rod.

Based on the structure of the findings, the scientists suggested that this was an ancient battery, which could create an electric current with a voltage of 1 volt.

According to one version, such a battery could be used in the galvanization process of gold, also remains an open question why the technology of manufacture of such batteries has been lost in other regions nothing of the sort was found.

The Voynich Manuscript

The Voynich manuscript — the most mysterious book in the world. It has no author, it is written in a strange language, also the pages are rife with inexplicable symbols and strange illustrations.

The originality of the manuscript is that it is written with a unique alphabet, not similar to any alphabetic system. These strange signs stumped cryptographers of the twentieth century to the present time remains unexplained.

Gold figurines of the Incas

Gold figurines found in South America, resemble aircraft, and it's hard to believe. What was the inspiration to create these figures is unknown.

In 1996, the German model aircraft Algund Enbom and Peter Belting proved that the hypothesis about the models of aircraft in the way figures a mysterious animal has the right to life. They created accurate, increased 16-fold copies of the so-called Columbian Golden airplane. To run the air model was equipped with a motor and radio control.

Two models not only managed to rise into the air, but perfectly executed aerobatics, well planned even with the engine turned off.

The genetic disk

Through the incredible artifact — the genetic disk depicted things and processes that modern man can only be observed under a microscope. On disk, most likely, shows the process of origin and development of the embryo. Also one of the strangest figures is the head of a person of unknown form.

The disk is made of a hard stone called lyddite. With its exceptional strength, this stone has a layered structure, and despite the presence of this ancient artifact to make something similar, and practically and theoretically impossible.

A lot of the Antikythera mechanism

A lot of the Antikythera mechanism is the oldest and most famous of the computing mechanism, the first analog computer because of its apparently complex structure.

After decades of research, scientists were able to determine that the mechanism shows the position of the Sun, moon, movement of planets in the heavens, predicts solar and lunar eclipses — and even key events such as the Olympic games.

The main debate erupted around the fact that discovery a lot of the Antikythera mechanism of ancient civilizations manufacture of such sophisticated equipment was not available. Scientists claim that this set of bronze gears ahead of similar types of equipment for a thousand years.
