The human civilization has entrusted science with the task of decoding mysteries. Living up to that expectation, science has decoded most phenomena ranging from simple to supernatural across the planet. However, there are mysteries that will always remain unsolved. Despite the worldwide efforts of scientists to explain them, some enigmas still do not have an answer.
The Coexistence of Dinosaurs and Human Footprints
Although many fossils have been proven to be fake, there are also some fossilized footprints of humans and dinosaurs found in ancient rock layers that archaeologists cannot prove to be fake. This is still considered a mystery, and if true, it would challenge the theory of evolution.
Radioactive Skeleton Found in Ancient City
At the archaeological sites of Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro, scientists discovered high levels of radiation in the ruins, leading to the hypothesis that an atomic bomb exploded around 1500 BCE. However, scientists also have counterarguments to this theory, and the topic remains a subject of debate to this day.
The Interlocking Stone Blocks at Puma Punku
In Bolivia, there is a large temple complex with intricate architecture, including interlocking stone blocks from the Inca civilization. These stone structures fit together so precisely that they are astonishing, and scientists cannot explain how they were built so accurately in ancient times.
The Voynich Manuscript
The Voynich manuscript is an undeciphered cryptic document, believed to have been written in the 15th or 16th century. It is named after Wilfrid Voynich, who purchased it in 1912. The manuscript consists of 240 pages, containing images and text written in an unknown language and mysterious symbols. However, to this day, no one has been able to decode its content, and the Voynich manuscript remains one of the greatest mysteries in the history of cryptography and art.
The Antikythera Mechanism
The Antikythera mechanism is an ancient analog computer believed to have been constructed in Greece during the early 1st century BCE. It was discovered in 1901 in the Antikythera shipwreck off the coast of the Greek island Antikythera. The mechanism consists of a complex system of gears and dials, and was used to track astronomical positions and cycles, including the movements of the sun, moon, and planets. The Antikythera mechanism is considered to be one of the most significant archaeological finds of the 20th century, and is considered a masterpiece of mechanical engineering for its time.
