Dwarves, fairies, and subterranean dwarfs really existed before the 18th century
The Skara Brae settlement was dug up in Scotland after a hurricane in the 1920s. The settlement was founded before 3100 B.C. and had existed for about 600 years. The stone walls, beds, ceilings and doorways were designed for occupants up to one meter tall.
In size, the people copied Egyptian, Italian and Slavic dwarfs, and in Britain itself gnomes, elves, fairies and leprechauns make up a huge part of the cultural heritage. More recently, the archaeological part as well.

Monocycle, 1927.
That feeling when footage from 90 years ago looks like a sci-fi movie about the future.

1909. Electric cars at a charging station.
Sales of electric cars reached their peak in the early 1910s as more and more homes began to be hooked up to electricity. In the "United States" at the time, 38% of cars were electric.

The legend of the gigantic ancient ships at the bottom of Lake Nemi has survived to this day. At the beginning of the 20th century, a large-scale archaeological expedition was carried out on this lake in Italy, which led to the discovery of a ship 60 meters long and 20 meters wide.
Marble columns, floors, and statues were found on the ship, and surprisingly, the hull was lined with triple planking of lead, indicating that the ship was built in 54 A.D. The ship was also equipped with ceramic pipes for heating the floors, indicating the high technological sophistication of the time.
As usual, however, scientists have found their own explanations. They believe that it was a floating temple, not a ship.

Jan Meeker's Vogelevlucht, 1652.
Nothing surprising - the author simply detailed and depicted Amsterdam as accurately as possible from a bird's eye view, with shadows cast by passing clouds. 131 years before the first balloon was invented.

The sacred lake at the Temple of Karnak
The lake does not dry up, was built by order of King Thutmose III. The size of the basin is 80 meters long and 40 meters wide.
For more than 3000 years, the water in the lake has never dried up, the water level here is always the same - such is the engineering genius of the ancient designer.

"Gates of Hell" (Darwaz crater) - Turkmenistan.
This is a crater located in Darvaz, in the desert of Turkmenistan, 70 meters wide and 30 meters deep.
It has been burning continuously for more than 50 years, that is, since 1971, when a team of Soviet geologists, penetrating the area with drilling wells in search of oil, reached a bag of natural gas, which destroyed the ground, thus creating the present chasm.
To avoid a leak of poisonous gas, the geologists decided to set a fire, hoping it would be over within days, but the crater is still burning.

Chinese police officers have special glasses for recognizing people
These glasses help identify license plates and human faces and determine a person's social rating, according to which police officers will decide how to interact with this or that person.

The legendary sword in stone, which is often associated with the legend of King Arthur, does exist. It is not in Avalon, of course, but in Italy. It can be seen in the Montesiepi Chapel, near Saint Galgano Abbey in Chiusdino, in Tuscany.
During the examination of the Tuscan sword in stone, it was discovered that there is some kind of void underneath it. The church authorities, however, have not yet given permission to move the stone, so scientists do not know what the sword hides underneath.
Today, it is kept under protective glass, still in the stone, in the chapel and is available to all who wish to see it.

Fireplaces powered by atmospheric electricity
These are fireplaces, which do not burn wood, but a spherical metal sheet is installed, heated by atmospheric electricity and radiates heat into the room.
From such fireplaces there is always heat and there is no soot in the room. Such fireplaces were placed in palaces, theaters, institutions, churches with painted and exquisitely decorated ceilings.
To work such a fireplace on the high roof of the building must be made appropriate electrical circuits connected with the spires - receivers of atmospheric electricity, combined with spherical capacitors, made on a high artistic level.

Giant belted statue 150 meters tall and 20,000 years old
The figure, named Dame of Mali, is located on the border between Guinea and Mali. It is carved in a granite mountain and is 1.5 km above the ground, or rather, above an abyss.
What kind of Paleolithic civilization is this? Possessing the technology to create statues of such gigantic proportions?

One of the most expensive books in the world is Leonardo da Vinci's Leicester Codex.
"The Leicester Codex is a notebook of natural scientific notes and reflections made by Leonardo da Vinci in Milan in 1506-1510. The manunoscript consists of 18 sheets of paper, written on both sides to make a 72-page notebook. Leonardo wrote the treatise in his own "mirror" writing - you can read them only with the help of a mirror.
Each chapter of the Codex begins with an appeal to future generations and a compelling explanation that the world is a single "living organism." According to Leonardo's beliefs: air is the "soul" of the planet, the surface of the earth its "body," and water its "blood.
The owner of The Leicester Codex is currently Bill Gates, who purchased the book for $30.8 million.

Technology that science keeps out of the population
In 1920, engineer Royal Rife created the world's first ultraviolet microscope with a magnification of 50,000 times. It allowed us to see a living virus. Fifteen years later, Rife created a frequency generator whose radiation affected pathogenic microflora without damaging the surrounding tissue. Fourteen fully documented cases of complete healing of cancer patients and the use of his generator was banned in the United States.
Experiments with the frequency generator were repeated by our contemporaries, confirmed the simplicity and effectiveness of the method to combat viruses and pathogens. But the official medicine has refused to recognize the development.
