Mysteries contributing to patching up gaps in the historical record in this video we will delve into 10 ancient Mysteries that continue to baffle us highlighting the ongoing effort to uncover the truth behind these enigmatic events number 10 the mysteries of the Stonehenge Stonehenge a prehistoric monument in Wiltshire
England stands out as one of the most iconic archaeological sites globally however it remains surrounded by mystery even though the monument is well known and has been extensively researched there are still many Mysteries surrounding its construction purpose and the culture behind it Stone Stonehenge was built in multiple stages starting
Approximately 5,000 years ago the distinctive Stone Circle was constructed during the late Neolithic period around 2,500 BC the monument is made up of large standing stones with some coming from the nearby Marboro downs and the smaller blue stones from the preli hills in Wales which are over 140 Mi away
Experts are puzzled by how the builders transported these massive blue stones across a vast distance using primitive Technologies raising questions about their knowledge and motivation for the task the design of the monument is just as mysterious stonehenge’s stones are positioned to align with important astronomical occurrences particularly the solstices during the summer solstice
The Avenue leading up to the monument aligns with the rising sun while during the winter solstice the Setting Sun aligns with the monument from the opposite direction the precise alignment of Stonehenge indicates that the builders possessed Advanced understanding of the stars and planet Planet sparking theories that the structure served as a calendar
Observatory or place of sun worship despite these insights our understanding of the culture responsible for constructing Stonehenge remains limited there are no written records left by these individuals so our understanding of them is primarily based on archaeological discoveries their spiritual beliefs societal structures and daily lives are still shrouded in
Mystery contributing to the enigmatic Aura of Stonehenge the current Stonehenge is not fully intact as many of its original sarsens and blue stones were removed during Britain’s Roman and medieval eras the ground within the monument has been significantly disrupted over the centuries historian and antiquarian William Camden mentioned
Finding ashes and pieces of burnt bone in the 16th century indicating various levels and purposes of digging that have taken place in 1620 George Villar first Duke of Buckingham dug a significant hole within the stone circle in search of treasure William stook surveyed Stonehenge and its surrounding monuments
A century later while fenders Petri made the first accurate plan of the stones in 1874 to 1877 in 1877 Charles Darwin excavated two holes at Stonehenge to study the impact of earthworms on soil movement William goland conducted the first official archaeological excavation in 1901 many excavations and Studies have occurred throughout the centuries
Each uncovering a piece of the puzzle while also adding to the mystery radiocarbon dating landscape archaeology and geophysical surveys have all contributed to unraveling the mysteries of the monument Stonehenge still guards numerous Mysteries its quiet Stones serving as an eternal reminder of the enigmatic past number N9 the NASA lines
In 1553 a Spanish conquistador released a captivating book detailing a series of Trail markers located in southern Peru on a dry Plateau within the NASA desert despite being visible from the surrounding Hills it wasn’t until the 20th century that airplane pilots flew over them leading people to discover
They held significance Beyond being mere Trail markers the NASKA lines consist of a collection of massive geoglyphs believed to have been created between 500 BC and 500 CE with such a wide range the estimation is based on the limited written records available for andian cultures making it the best
Approximation by experts most of the lines consist of basic geometric shapes while S Showcase intricate designs of plants and animals not only are these designs visually appealing but their creation process is equally fascinating these intricate designs were crafted by skillfully revealing various colored layers of sand through the art of

These inscriptions are incredibly massive crafted from a single unbroken line with the largest stretching approximately 370 m in length implying that these were not crafted by an idle individual with ample free time well some pretty unexpected events have taken place before the creation of these lines suggests a coordinated effort by a
Substantial number of individuals utilizing complex mathematical principles one might wonder what motivated their actions what was the purpose behind crafting these mysterious symbols and why were they designed on such a grand scale that their existence remained hidden until the era of Aviation experts suggest that the NASA lines May hold a deeper religious
Meaning aside from that ambiguous claim it is impossible to determine due to the previously mentioned absence of written documentation there is a theory suggesting that these were designed to catch the attention of celestial beings above some suggest suggest that astronomy and constellations could have influenced the Mayans which is a
Plausible Theory given their existence some have suggested that they might have also functioned as a calendar for tracking agricultural activities various unconventional theories and interpretations exist about the naasa lines yet their visual appeal remains undeniable number eight thech colossal heads Central Mexico is home to a captivating location known as Tres

Discoveries offered initial proof of the MCH civilization the most ancient culture in meso America the stone heads come in a range of sizes from around 4 to 11 ft tall and boast impressive weights ranging from 12,000 to nearly 100,000 lb each the discovery becomes even more intriguing when considering
That the head sculptures are made of salt a rock usually associated with volcanoes despite the nearest volcanoes being about 90 Mi away delicate facial features were meticulously carved into the stone with the help of reads and wet sand resulting in a lifelike portrayal of the eyes mouth and nostrils additionally there are intentional
Dimples created on the cheeks chin and lips the heads each showcase distinct facial characteristics portrayed in a remarkably lifelike and emotive style resembling true portraits of rulers scholar Miller has pinpointed colossal head 5 as a ruler of San Lorenzo from the second millennium BCE speculation has arisen regarding the sculptures
Physiognomy suggesting contact with African civilizations however the physical features found in the heads are still present in residents of modern Mexican cities like Tabasco and verac Cruz what was the purpose behind carving these heads it is probable that they were created as a tribute to thech leaders it takes a great deal of
Resources and expert to transport and carve the massive Boulders into the sculptures we admire today suggesting that only those in leadership positions could have accomplished such a feat aside from this informed speculation there are few concrete specifics available about them determining their age can be quite challenging due to the

Civilization throughout the years numerous Explorations and archaeological Studies have been conducted in an effort to uncover the secrets of the Lost Civilization various theories put forth by explorers historians and scientists suggest reasons for atlantis’s disappearance ranging from cataclysmic natural disasters to extraterrestrial involvement despite numerous hypotheses and proposed evidence the actual
Existence and alleged location of Atlantis continue to elude researchers solidifying its status as one of the most intriguing Unsolved Mysteries of the ancient world there is currently no significant archaeological evidence found to support the existence of a vast civilization like the lost city of Atlantis as a result Atlantis is more of
A product of speculation imagination and storytelling rather than historical fact funny enough Another Story Goes thus Legend says that the Atlantis city was built by Poseidon the god of sea of Storms and earthquakes when he fell in love with a mortal woman clato he made
This city on top of a hill on an isolated island in the sea to protect her and named it Atlantis according to the story Poseidon walked through the world to find the biggest island until he reached the biggest of them all Atlantis and found it inhabited by people who were more beautiful and
Intelligent than the rest of the world there he met and fell in love with a woman called Plato it is said that all available evidence indicates that the philosopher Plato sometime around 360 BC invented the island nation in order to illustrate a point about the dangers of aggressive imperialism in Plato’s
Telling Atlantis was no Utopia rather it was a foil for an idealized version of Athens from long before Plato’s time this ancient Athens was very similar to Plato’s notion of the ideal state says Jill Gensler a professor of philosophy at Amherst College Plato laid out the
Details for what such a state would look like in his famous work the Republic according to Gensler it should be small and virtuous and reject ostentation the residents of Atlantis on the other hand were eventually filled with an unjust Lust For possessions and power according to Plato’s character who described the
Island even after numerous explorers and researchers have dedicated their efforts to uncovering its Secrets the Enigma of Atlantis remains as intriguing as ever captivating our imagination and fueling discussions worldwide hey guys before we move deeper into the video it is time for our subscribers pick in the photo
Right on your screen you can see two grounded pyramids on each side of this Egyptian beauty with one of them having an open doorway and on top of these pyramids you can also see some floating structures that look like prisms with those floating prisms this might go in
Line with the theory that the pyramids were built by aliens or at least aliens showed humans how to build them however mainstream Scholars and archaeologist olog ists had rejected the notion that aliens were involved in the construction of the pyramids they argue that there is ample evidence to support the idea that
The ancient Egyptians possessed the necessary knowledge technology and organizational skills to build these architectural Marvels with that said we would love to know what you think guys share your opinion in the comment section below now let’s get back into the list shall we number five the yonaguni monument the yonaguni monument
Or the yonaguni submarine ruins is an incredibly fascinating underwater rock formation shrouded in mystery off the coast of yonaguni Japan lies a submerged Enigma that has puzzled scientists and historians since its Discovery in 1986 beneath the waves the yonaguni monument a massive underwater rock formation invites us to question everything we
Know about ancient civilizations at first glance The Monument’s sharp angles flat surfaces and precise alignments seem to defy natural explanation some believe this could be the remnants of a long-lost Pacific civilization a Japanese Atlantis that sank into the ocean’s depths thousands of years ago but not everyone agrees Skeptics argue
That these formations are the work of natural geological processes sculpted over Millennia by the movements of the earth and the Relentless force of the sea researcher masaki Kimura from the University of the ryuk use believes that the structure is a group of monoliths built by humans according to Kamura it
