What techniques were used to create the terracotta army?
Researchers have found that each sculpture was first shaped, then fired, glazed, and painted. But the researchers could not find any firing kilns. But the production of 8,000 statues would have required an entire production facility.

Thousands of engravings, coats of arms, and coins depicting unicorns. So what, again, did people in different parts of the world in different centuries rave about the same thing? And why did they depict non-existent animals on coats of arms and coins? And often combined as it were, mythical unicorns with now living, for example, lions. You have to decide, make or fantasy coat of arms or a real one.
Or maybe everything is simpler here? Unicorns actually existed, but if you admit it now, it would destroy the whole historical paradigm? If there is a horse, why can't it be assumed that there could have been a horse with a horn? Why not?

Indian Classical Ornamental Architecture
You may have already seen what locks the Hindus carved out of stone "with an ordinary hammer and chisel." Now, these castles have windows that are also very elaborate and made perfectly flat.

Galactic Map
The purpose of this artifact could not be determined, as well as the exact age of its creation. The approximate age was estimated at 600 years.
Its key feature is its shape. It strongly resembles the shape of our galaxy. One of the ridges on the disk is exactly the same as our position in the galaxy, a coincidence?
Yet key details are made so precisely that scientists have only been able to identify them in modern times, such as the central seal. How did people get such knowledge 600 years ago?

2639-2506 B.C. The material is black diorite.Diorite is one of the strongest materials on Earth.
It can resist neither alkali nor acid, perfectly capable of withstanding the influence of the environment and time. Because of its longevity, it has been used so that objects made of it could survive up to 3,000 to 5,000 years later.
Scientists and textbooks claim that it was made with stones, sticks and copper tubes 3,000 to 1,000 years ago BC. They didn't know iron then and the tools were primitive.
Maybe our builders should be given sticks and copper to build properly? Otherwise it's a regression🙈

The first denoscription of the people of the giants in Patagonia was made by Magellan in 1520.
But it was not the only one and it is not possible to write off Magellan's testimony as a tourist story. In all, more than 10 navigators (John Byron, Thomas Cavendish, Juan Esther and William Adams, etc.) wrote about the unusual inhabitants of the Americas. The Patagonians were between 2.5 and 3.5 meters tall. Anthony Knivet described bodies found by him and his team that were even slightly taller than 3.5m.

In 1971, archaeologists dug up the skeleton of a twenty-meter iguanodon in Colombia.
The sensation was different - under the dinosaur lay human-like remains. Analysis of the discovery layer and the bones gave an age of 85mln years.
The theory that it was the skeleton of an ancient ape was broken by a fossilized spear lying nearby.

Formations in the form of stone bowls
They are located at the very top of the Arakulsky Shihan granite massif.
The version of their origin was put forward by geologists: "During the glacial period, stones got stuck in potholes, ice pushed such stones, and the stuck debris began to twist and rub".
The only pity is that no stones were found in the bowls. What, then, was abrading the surface with? Well and to read a version of the movement of the glacier on the very top of the rocks is somewhat fantastic.

In 1919, a young Alfred Hubbard created a mechanism which
newspapers dubbed the "perpetual motion machine," while Hubbard himself called it an atmospheric energy generator.
To attract investors, Alfred held showboat rides. Confessing to greed, Albard feared losing the rights to his miracle invention and actively sought to sell it for more.
In 1920, newspapermen quickly lost interest in the invention and the inventor. In 1929, having patented the "radioactive internal combustion device for the internal combustion engine", the young genius suddenly abandoned the invention, went to jail and to his patented generators former investors have lost interest dramatically.
For some reason, as soon as it comes to atmospheric electricity or alternative energy sources, inventors die, go to jail, or quit their life's work.

RACUSCHEK GROT.
A mysterious cave in England.
The Shell Grotto is a spectacular underground cave located in the English town of Margit in the county of Kent. This cave houses a mosaic made of 4.6 million shells.
Discovered by accident,
its origin is still unknown.
The walls of the shell grotto are truly remarkable works of art, consisting of mosaics with Oriental and Egyptian symbols.
At this time, there is no
reliable information about who built the mosaics and what they were used for.
The mosaic may be 3,000 years old, but there are also theories that it may date back to the 18th century. Some theories suggest that the Cave of Shells is related to Freemasonry, the Knights Templar, the Phoenicians, the Romans and many others, but none have been confirmed, making it an unsolved mystery. This probably only adds to the intrigue of this grotto.
