According to a report in Haaretz, researchers unearthed 30 elite tombs of various sizes in the city of Zaoyang. They date back to what is known as the Summer and Autumn Period in Chinese history (770 ?" 476 BC), which corresponds roughly to the fir
The Olmec civilization flourished roughly between 1200 BC and 400 BC, an era commonly known as Central America's Formative Period. Sites containing traces of the Olmec civilization are found mainly on the southern coast of the Gulf of Mexico, speci
ons and daughters were sent all over the world to start their own nations. In the Takenouchi documents, the account of human creation does not follow the path of evolution. Rather, it was the Gods that created humans, and the sons of Gods created fiv

The little man squeezed out from a crack in the rock and stood blinking in the bright African sun. As he snuffed out his makeshift wick light, another red stained miner popped out to join him. Together they turned and carefully blocked and then conce
Researchers looked at Trajan's Market and several other Imperial Roman structures to analyze the remarkable resilience of the concrete. They then reproduced a standard Imperial-age mortar?"a simple mix of lime, water, and a specific kind of volcani
The term Lemuria has its origins in the latter part of the 19th century. The English geologist Philip Sclater was puzzled by the presence of lemur fossils in Madagascar and India but not in mainland Africa and the Middle East. Thus, in his 1864 art
A wooden carving dating from the 3rd century B.C. was found in a tomb in Sakkara (also spelled Saqqara), Egypt, in 1898. It was classified as a bird figure and placed with other bird carvings at the Cairo Museum, until Dr. Khalil Messiha, a medical d
A previous theory held that the swords may have their origin in the Middle East or Asia, but surprisingly it seems the materials were sourced closer to where they were found, in Central Europe. At the time the Ulfberht swords were forged (approximat
Estimates of the age of the earthwork are now radically revised as the result of a new radiocarbon analysis, suggesting that the mound is about 1,400 years older than conventionally thought. The new date of construction is estimated at approximately
A remarkable series of several dozen European-style stone tools, dating back between 19,000 and 26,000 years, have been discovered at six locations along the US east coast. Three of the sites are on the Delmarva Peninsular in Maryland, discovered by
this giant had a skull, which was of "the compressed or flat-head type." In other words, this skeleton exhibited conehead characteristics similar to those found in South America and Egypt. As digs progressed in other parts of the state, archaeol
We have uncovered thousands of bones and teeth representing a mixed population of dozens of animals, young and old," Clive Coy, the senior lab technician at the University of Alberta Laboratory for Invertebrate Paleontology, said. "It looks like
We used to think that geometric engravings were a sure sign of modern cognitive abilities, and experts have long debated over the origins of these behaviors. "Until this discovery, it was assumed that comparable engravings were only made by modern
It is clear now that some of the largest fragments of the comet hit the North American ice cap, which was still a mile deep 12,800 years ago, and caused cataclysmic flooding (I had the opportunity to explore some of the extraordinary effects of this
If it is man-made (rather than a natural formation), it could require a reevaluation of history. The nearby Caddo Native American tribe has no history of building such structures, and it's commonly accepted that they were also incapable of building
A glyph found in New Mexico, for example, forms a traditional Chinese oracle-bone prognostication, wrote Ruskamp in an article on his website. The New Mexico glyph, if interpreted using the ancient Chinese pictograms, reads: "The next 10-day period
But astonishingly, not only does modern science identify a very similar time frame for a global superflood that occurred right around that date, science also predicts that there were in fact three global superfloods just like the Kumari Kandum myth s
The Antikythera mechanism was discovered in 1900 during the recovery of a shipwreck off of the Greek island, Antikythera, in waters 60 meters deep. The metallic device consists of 37 different types of gears and is so complex that many consider it t

When metallic particles have dimensions on the nanoscale, they display iridescent colours. The first known example of this phenomenon is the Lycurgus cup, a 4th century chalice made of glass impregnated with particles of silver and gold, ground down
Most researchers believe the first Americans crossed the Bering Strait from Siberia about 15,000 years ago and quickly colonized North America. Artifacts from these ancient settlers, who have been named the Clovis culture after one of the archaeologi

Archaeologists have discovered human footprints and some Stone Age fishing gear in a dried up fjord in Denmark which date back to 5,000 years ago.
Dr Malcolm LeCompte, a research associate professor at Elizabeth City State University and lead author of the new study, began independent study in 2008 using and further refining Dr Firestone's sampling and sorting methods at two sites common to t

The dawn of modern homo sapiens occurred in Africa between 60,000 and 80,000 years ago. Evidence of modern man's migration out of the African continent has been documented in Australia and Central Asia at 50,000 years and in Europe at 40,000 years.
According to this book from the 1800's, there is an ancient relic called the Gettysburg Stone that states that the Earth goes through an 18 degree pole shift during the Age of Aquarius. That is the age we are in now.
