The history of the "Chud" people today embodies the historical debauchery. It seems to be full of documents, testimonies about the people, but the conclusion from these documents the officials made such that it's hard to imagine✨
"Chud is the collective Old Russian name for tribes of the Baltic-Finnic/Finno-Ugric group. Finno-Ugrians themselves, however, did not understand the language of the Chuds, so they considered them strangers.
And the idea to consider the Chud to be an Estonian tribe belonged not to scientific circles, but to political ones. When the Swedes occupied the future land of Ingermanlandia, they introduced a policy of segregation and Lutheranism for the local peoples, who they called "the Finno-Ugric substratum. The Chud were not particularly offended by the "substratum" and didn't care much about Lutheranism, but official historians were happy to pick up the idea and label the whole people as Finno-Ugric, without any genetic analysis, cultural comparisons or doubts📓

Ennoscriptd "The world's oldest buildings with unsolved mysteries”😁
A 47-meter spider, a 93-meter hummingbird, a 134-meter eagle, a lizard, an alligator, a snake and other zoomorphic and humanoid creatures... Giant images from a bird's eye view seem scratched into the vegetation-free rock, as if by one hand, in the same style. In fact, these are furrows up to 50 cm deep and 135 cm wide, made at different times in the V-VII centuries📜

Peru. Each block is unique, mass production of such a "constructor" does not make sense 🤔
One of the few explanations is that it is originally a soft material. They took the mass and molded a wall like this. Here you can see that there was a certain flat column, a support, which either kept the wall in balance until the blocks were completely hardened, or the scaffolding and formwork were supported on it, which did not allow the mass to flow out of the blocks. When it was removed, a trace of this support was imprinted. To conclude that someone for something has chiseled such a shallow groove is somehow not logical.

Too smart ancient people💡
It's no secret that the knowledge of the same planetary structure, astronomy, the distances of the planets and stars, all this was known to many civilizations of the past.
And this is not just words, but a fact confirmed by many findings, from star charts, to chronicles describing the structure of the solar system and the stars beyond.
Obviously, without equipment and technology, it is impossible to study space in principle. And many of the knowledge, our civilization has received quite recently, but judging by all appearances, some ancient civilizations knew thousands of years ago no less. But how - this is another question🙃

Arecibo's answer?📜
The Arecibo Message was a radio signal sent on November 16, 1974, from the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico. The message was composed by Carl Sagan and his comrades in honor of the discovery of a powerful radio telescope. The language of the message was a universal mathematical binary code, which encoded the most important information about humanity: what is DNA, the size of man, data about humanity as a whole, about the solar system...
But Arecibo's message was more a demonstration of humanity's technical capabilities than a real attempt to make contact with the galactic inhabitants. But here's the interesting thing: in 2001, on the ground near the Chilbolton Observatory there was an image that resembled the Arecibo message. True, there was still a slight difference in the diameter of the microscope, information about the solar system, data about humanity, DNA and a few other things. It was as if it was a response to our cipher telling the alien beings who they were🌌

The 16th-century boxwood figurines puzzle art historians the world over🙃
They are so diminutive that we had to use a microscope and X-ray to study them.
These wooden figurines were created during a short period of time from 1500 to 1530 in Flanders or the Netherlands. The demand for high quality pocket figurines of a religious nature arose with the emergence of merchants as a class. However, the Reformation soon began and many church accessories went out of fashion, including boxwood miniatures.
Using microcomputed tomography and 3D scanning, researchers have discovered just how complex these miniature altars really are. The inner layers are joined together by completely hidden seams that can only be detected with a microscope or X-ray. The individual fragments are attached to each other by tiny connecting pieces. But much of the manufacturing process remains unsolved📜

Kailas Temple in India
The ancient temple of Kailas in Ellora was carved into the rock stone by stone, by hand of course.
The dimensions of the courtyard are 82 by 46 meters at the base, and 30 meters high.
The structure is a freestanding tiered temple complex of 2,000 square meters. It took the Hindus of the Rashtrakuta Empire twenty years to build the temple, processing 200,000 tons of rock. This means that 27 tons of rock must be processed per day. In addition to this temple, 33 rock sculptures are carved into the same rock.
How miraculously, centuries ago, did mankind manage to build such gigantic structures without the technology known today?🤔

In April 1561 a strange celestial phenomenon was recorded at dawn in Nuremberg. Witnesses noted hundreds of spheres, cylinders, and other strange objects moving chaotically in the sky. People described it as an aerial battle. This was followed by the appearance of a large black triangular object and then its crash outside the city.

An ancient underground passage from Scotland to Turkey.
German archaeologist Heinrich Kusch discovered a system of tunnels connecting Scotland and Turkey. They are dug very deep and are under the seabed. According to expert estimates, the approximate age of the tunnel is at least 13,000 years old.
The tunnels are relatively narrow, about 70 centimeters wide, which is just enough for a person to get through them. In some places there are small rooms, storage chambers and places to sit.
The discovery of a vast network of underground tunnels suggests that Stone Age people spent their days apparently not just hunting and gathering. However, the real purpose of these tunnels is still a complete mystery.

There is a Native American legend about 4-meter tall red-haired giants who lived in the Nevada area
It speaks of Native Americans killing giants in a cave.
In 1931, two skeletons were found at the bottom of a lake. One was 2.4 m. and the other was just under 3 m. The photo shows the one found and the normal human one.

A 16th-century map of Africa from the Castle of Farnese🗺
In addition to the full-flowing rivers, lakes, and their basins, it shows the mountains that divide the continent, of which there is now no information either. Many towns on the coast of the Gulf of Guinea and in the interior of Africa. Even today's settlements in this place are hard to call cities, and back then... Whose were they?
And the African coast of the Mediterranean Sea is rather empty, although, according to traditional notions, northern Africa was densely populated and there should have been dozens of cities.

There is an interesting point in Ortelius' atlas. Ireland here is an independent country, but England is depicted as a single state with Scotland, which happened, according to the OVI (the official version of history) in 1707.
How could the author of the map be Ortelius, who died back in 1598 and did not live to see this momentous event? Historians have overlooked the temporary unification of states or the map is slightly falsified and published a hundred years after the death of the author?🤔

"The Amazing Voyage of Niels..." in the original contains almost 800 pages. In the Russian version, or rather, even in the simplified retelling with correction and censorship remained 150-200 pages
The part about the town of Vineta was also censored: "...a raven once told me that on this beach was the town of Vineta. It was so rich and happy, no other city was so beautiful, but its inhabitants, unfortunately, devoted themselves to arrogance and affluence. The city of Vineta was flooded by a storm surge and sank into the sea."
Mentions of Vineta were not only erased from history, but even in children's stories and fairy tales fell under the knife of the censors. All in all, the richest city of the Slavs, standing on the site of St. Petersburg🧐

ATLANTEAN CIVILIZATION📓
The period of existence of the Atlanteans is probably the strangest time in the history of our planet. Myths of various peoples tell us that at this time reigned apes, and others argue that after the fiery catastrophe reigned dragons. But all are right - this is the time of the greatest diversity of species of civilizations on our planet.
In 1902, the eruption of the volcano Mont Pélé on the island of Martinique (Antilles) destroyed all life, but life quickly returned to the island. Now, however, everything was gigantic: vegetation, dogs, cats, turtles, lizards, insects, all grew large and continued to grow for generations. A French research station set up on the island to study the phenomenon determined that the growth of the animals had been caused by radiation from those fossils that had been carried away by the eruption.

There is a word in Russian that means obsolete or backward. But what could be backward before the biblical flood if they were walking around naked and eating apples?
Maybe there was some other flood, like in the 17th or 18th century, when the word appeared? After all, words don't just appear out of thin air📜

A few years ago, off the coast of California, an unusual disc-shaped artifact was discovered, measuring 2 by 4 km and 150 m thick. In addition, it is mounted on massive stone columns.
While ufologists are convinced that it is an underwater base, and geologists are convinced of a uniform "washout of column and disk shaped rock", in my opinion, there is a simple and logical explanation (no, not a flood). California is on a lithospheric plate fault and this area can sink or rise out of the water quickly during tectonic shifts. The question is different, what age should the disc-shaped structure that ended up 10km off the coast be? There is no mention of it after the discovery of the Americas, and for the pre-Columbian era atypical shape of the structure and scope.

📜The oldest worked gold on Earth was not found in the Middle East, in the land of the Sumerians, in Egypt or even in pre-Columbian America.
A historical find that is worth its weight in gold was discovered in Bulgaria, near Varna.
Sensation? Definitely. But uncomfortable, because from it follows that the Varna culture should be considered the very first European civilization (which has already confirmed the radiocarbon analysis of tombs). And in general, to recognize the development of civilization of the ancient Slavs living in the Black Sea region is to go against established historical norms.
