From a sky stone no one can explain to the medieval sword with mysterious inscription written on it these artifacts are incredible! Subscribe to Talltanic http://goo.gl/wgfvrr 6. Third Eye Pyramid A stone pyramid, about ten inches tall, was discovered in the jungles of Ecuador in the 1980s. The artifact is part of a collection of objects known as the La Mana artifacts. The stone depicts a series of thirteen stone layers which represent bricks engraved on the front of the item. There is also an inlaid eye carved at the pyramid’s pinnacle. When placed underneath a black light, the thirteen layers of carved bricks and eye at the top shine with a vivid luminescence. The patterns on this object are eerily similar to the image depicted on a U.S. one dollar bill--a pyramid with thirteen steps with an all-seeing eye at the top. Are there any supernatural connections to this ancient item and the illustrations on the present-day dollar bill? The answer may never be revealed. 5. Crystal Skulls A translucent skull head, made of solid quartz crystal, unearthed in an ancient Mayan ruin has puzzled scientists for years, but is it real?. Skulls have been popping up over the centuries with people testifying to their authenticity, although few have made it to the science lab for observational analysis. If these skulls actually originated from ancient cultures, then they truly are a marvel. The skulls that have been examined under a microscope appear to be completely unscathed by archaic tools that could have been used to craft them. If genuine, what kind of advanced technologies did ancient people possess to make them, or did they receive help from something not of this world? 4. Orichalcum(Ori cal cum) Ingots A rare find in 2015 of the fabled orichalcum metal has been discovered scattered on the seafloor in Sicily close to an underwater shipwreck. The metal was revered in archaic times because it was believed that it had a value similar to gold. The ancient Greek philosopher, Plato, wrote about the metal in one of his treatises and claimed that it came from the legendary city of Atlantis, which still has yet to be discovered. Under examination, scientists found that the orichalcum ingots are made up of nothing more than the combination of a few cheap metals--copper, zinc, nickel, lead, and iron. So, are these actual specimens of the mythical metal, or are they just a peculiar find? 3. Medieval Sword Inscription A 13th-century blade unearthed in Lincolnshire( linkin sure), England was discovered in 1825, but it is still an object of bewilderment to this day. The sword is still in good condition, and considering the period during which it was made, it is an admirable instrument capable (reeking) wreaking havoc on its foes. The double-edged sword has a blade crafted from German steel mounted on an English-made hilt. What still confounds scholars is the inscription written in some unknown language on one side of the blade. Some believe the dialect is derived from Latin and has religious meaning. Or, perhaps, it is a magical incantation believed to imbue the sword with enchanting powers. 2. The London Hammer This confounding object was accidentally discovered by an English couple in 1936 encased in a rock in the ground. When the couple cracked open the rock, they exposed what was inside, which resembled an old hammer with a wooden handle. When they turned it over to archaeologists, what they found was astonishing. The tool was, in fact, a hammer, but the rock it was confined in is more than 400 million years old. The hammer itself is reportedly over 500 million years old, which is way before humans ever walked the earth. This anachronism is an obvious mistake, and scientists have proposed that they haven’t been able to accurately date the hammer because the rock it was embedded in, began to infuse into the composition of the tool, obscuring its actual age. 1. The Devil’s Bible The Codex Gigas, also known as “The Devil’s Bible,” is the largest and longest manuscript ever uncovered from the past, written in the 13th century. The tome is made up of over 160 animal skins and is so massive that it takes at least two people to carry it. The handwritten contents of the book include a diverse range of information from a full-length Latin Vulgate Bible and medical documents, to historical texts, exorcisms, and magical formulas. There is an entire page dedicated to an illustration of the devil found within. Legend has it that a medieval monk hand-wrote the entire voluminous work in a single night by making a deal with the devil, earning it its name.
