Alaska Shipwreck A group of lost Russian merchants were shipwrecked in one of the most inhospitable areas known to man. Islands in Alaska can be brutal and being stranded on one must have been miserable. The merchants endured sub zero temperatures for a majority of their stay. Archeologists finally have existing physical evidence of this unfortunate incident that was an urban legend for over 200 years. These collections of artifacts shows what only tools these people had to work with. This includes musket balls, fishing hooks, sheet copper, nails and axe heads. No human remains were found, so maybe they made it off alive. 6. Prehistoric Maui Temples Archeologists must examine ancient temples in Maui in order for them to get a better understanding of Hawaii before it became part of the United States of America. These isolated temples in Maui have not been disturbed by modern day tourists or the extensive agricultural onset that has taken place in Hawaii. They found out that coral was offered at the altars of these temples and were even built into the structures. With the addition of coral, scientists can now carbon date easier and get a better idea of when the temple was built. They are able to estimate that this temple here was built in the 14th-16th century and were dedicated to the gods of farming. 5. Mysterious Winchester Rifle Archeologists who were exploring eastern Nevada found a rather mysterious Winchester repeating Rifle found propped up against an old Juniper Tree. What it’s doing there and how it got there is what’s really puzzling them. This is 132 years-old, a little bit weathered but still in decent condition considering the elements in the Great Basin National Park. This survived over a century outside in the wind, snow and sun before it was uncovered. The rifle was engraved with year Model 1873. It's clear that it hadn’t been moved in years since the stock was clearly ingrained into the soil. The ancient weapon will be preserved and framed at the National Park in which it was found. 4. Peace Camp Discoveries The National Nevada Testing Site is a vast area of desert that was repeatedly bombarded by nuclear weapons for half a century and believed to be the location of Area 51.. Mushrooms clouds littered the sky and they were visible from as far away as Las Vegas. Many protesters of nuclear war came to the limits of the Testing Site to give the government a piece of their mind. The reminisce of their protests and the facilities where they were detained became graffitied and promoted peace. These tunnels were recently discovered as a place of lodging before going on a protest. Thier efforts eventually lead to reforms in testing and made an effect on the world . 3. Rare Mastodon Skull in New Mexico Instead of going to stripclub or having a normal bachelor’s party this group of guys decided to go hiking in the middle of the New Mexico desert. They were shocked to say the least of what they had uncovered. This would be a story his fiancee won’t believe. They uncovered a head of a Mastodon, which is similar to woolly mammoth and is a distant relative to elephants. Some believe their extinction was due to overhunting by ancient tribes across the northern hemisphere. It’s believed to be one of the most complete mastodon skulls in existence and this one here could be over 3 million years old. 2. Rare Hawaiian Petroglyphs Surfs up bro! These ancient carvings have recently been exposed on the island of Oahu and shows that the ancients cared about gnarly waves too. After the end of a storm in Hawaii, it revealed the petroglyphs of dog and human-like characters. This one here might have been used to document travels, talk about important events or even a massive wave that came crashing down on them. Depictions of dogs are fairly common in Hawaii. Hawaiian legends tell about a wicked, cannibalistic beast took the form of a canine and was known as Kaupe. What do you think this carving looks like? Looks like someone catching a wave to me. 1. Trementina Base, NM This bizarre scientologist religious facility was discovered on satellites and it leaves many to wonder “what's going on out there”. Many don’t know this bizarre facility is just as strong as a military base and even holds an extremely secure underground vault. This is found in the middle of the New Mexico desert and supposedly holds the films, writings and recordings of L Ron Hubbard, their founder. They also have invested millions of dollars in this stronghold and is still unknown by many people that it even exists. The base is complete with aerial symbols for alien life in order to mark the landing location of where to find Hubbard's works
