Henry Ford paid maintenance workers to rest, not to work
At one of Henry Ford's plants, a crew of workers was paid for taking vacations. It was a service crew that was responsible for the smooth operation of the assembly line. Simply put - repairmen. They were paid only when they were sitting in the rest room. As soon as the red light of the assembly line breakdown came on, the meter that charged them money stopped.
First, they always made repairs promptly so they could get back to the break room sooner. Second, they always made the repairs with quality so that they would not have to leave the room anytime soon because of the same malfunction.

Mineral Palace, Pueblo, Colorado, USA.
Information about this palace is extremely scarce. According to the official version, the palace was opened on July 4, 1891. It housed the largest collection of minerals and gems in the world.
Considered one of the richest and most luxurious buildings then existing in the United States, the Mineral Palace had a facade with a colonnade, and at each corner on the outside of the building were spheres between the column and the roof. The main dome of the building was 72 feet high. It was decorated with 16 foot long female figures representing different countries of the world. Part of the decoration was the use of 2,200 electric lights with painted flowers.
The Mineral Palace, once called the 8th wonder of the world, stood for 52 years, was demolished in 1943 and disappeared from popular memory.

The stone, which depicts what may be the oldest map of the star path, was found in 1992 by geologist Castillo. The scientist was conducting research in the province of Kapanga, Indonesia, and in the mountains, in the Cave of Satan, found a worked stone, on the splinter of which were written strange signs. They were very similar to the information that the Americans had placed on anodized aluminum plates on the Pioneer-10 and Pioneer-11 probes launched into deep space in 1972 and 1973.
The similarities were striking: the stone, like the plaque, depicted a man and a woman holding hands, as well as the sun, a series of stars and signs in the form of dots and arrows. Geologists believe the stone was worked a very long time ago - several hundred thousand years ago.
But perhaps someone highly developed lived in Indonesia in ancient times, because the "map" reproduces a star system similar to ours - it has one star and seven planets.

A human body has been found inside a Buddha statue
Specialists from the Drenthe Museum (Netherlands) have discovered that inside a Buddha statue there is a mummified human body.
The Chinese statue from the museum collection, about 1000 years old, depicted Buddha sitting in the lotus posture. It was possible to examine in detail the body enclosed in it with the help of computer tomography and endoscopy, carried out in the medical center of the city of Amresfort.
And now imagine how many statues there are around the world that contain earthly beings, and somewhere not only earthly beings.

Swiss watch from an ancient tomb.
A few years ago, Chinese scientists excavating an ancient tomb in the Guangxi region, unexpectedly found an object that resembled a ring. Clearing it from the dust, the scientists found that they hold in their hands a fine Swiss women's watch.
The unusual find looked like a ring with a dial. On the dial, the time was frozen at 10:06. On the back of the find was engraved innoscription in English "Swiss". Which means Swiss.
The tomb where this find was discovered was four hundred years old and had never been opened.

Could people make such grandiose stone arches with jewelry precision by hand?
When you look at temple complexes, palaces, cave sanctuaries of the 3rd-10th centuries and older, you can marvel at the knowledge and technology needed to create such things. The Indians built ingenious structures from the point of view of architecture and engineering.

Thailand's world-famous Wat Prapagnumi temple houses an amazing Buddhist relic. A small coffin covered with a glass lid contains two mummies of beings unknown to science.
Believing people say they are Kumband fairies. They look like small creatures with large heads in relation to their bodies. These mummies are very well preserved. You can even see the facial features of each one if you want to. On the head of these mummies is something similar to a headdress.
The scientists who examined these bodies were shocked. In front of them were absolutely formed human adult bodies, ie it is not fake and not human embryos.
The question about these creatures so remained open, the official science does not confirm the fact of existence and does not deny it.

Sumerian texts show that in very remote times on Earth, which they called Ki, the alien gods established their colony. At first, 50 aliens were sent to Earth. They were called the Anu-na-ki. They were led by Anu's eldest son En-ki (lord of the Earth). According to the King's List, Enki's reign in Eridu lasted 28,000 years. However, a more severe younger son of Anu, En-lil (lord of the air), was later placed over him. En-lil increased the alien colony on Earth, and placed some in Earth orbit:
"Three hundred he placed in the heavenly watch.....
And on the earth he settled six hundred."

2639-2506 B.C. The material is Black Diorite.
Diorite is one of the strongest materials on Earth.
It does not succumb to neither alkali nor acid, perfectly withstands the influence of the external unfavorable environment and time. Because of its durability, it was used to make objects made of it, even to us after 3000-5000 years.
Scientists and textbooks claim that it was made by "humans" using rocks, sticks and copper tubing 3000-1000 years ago BC.

An ancient vimana.
Inside sits the pilot in lotus pose. India. Next to the photo you can see a rather unusual image of Buddha - he is inside a space capsule.
This image can be seen on the so-called "Field of Boulders" in Pakistan. It is located near the town of Khodur on the northern bank of the Upper Indus River. This was once the site of the highly developed Harappa civilization.

In Delhi, in the courtyard of the Qutb Minar Mosque, there is a metal column known to the world as "Indra's Pillar".
For several millennia, it has resisted the effects of weather without a trace of rust.
The column is made of atomic iron with no impurities of carbon and sulfur at the molecular level. Nowadays it is possible to obtain such perfectly pure iron by sputtering only in a vacuum and only in small quantities. The height of the "pillar of Indra" corresponds to a three-storey house, moreover, the pillar goes into the Earth for several tens of meters.
It is not clear how, with the help of what mechanisms this miracle was made and installed.

If we take official data on the construction of the pyramid of Cheops, it turns out that in an hour "ancient Egyptians" cut, processed, moved, lifted and installed 9 blocks of 2.5 tons each, 220 per day. And this is without taking into account the fact that people were under the scorching sun for 12 hours, worked at night and they all had to be provided with water and food.
Japanese engineers 40 years ago tried to build a copy of the pyramid 7 times smaller. They wanted to build it in a month, but they built it in a year. A truck and a helicopter were involved in the construction because the construction methods described in history surprisingly did not work.
Who built the pyramids then?

Boxwood figurines from the 16th century baffle art historians around the world.
They are so miniaturized that a microscope and X-rays had to be used to study them. These wooden figurines were created within a short period of time from 1500 to 1530 in Flanders or the Netherlands. The demand for pocket-sized, high-quality figurines of a religious nature arose with the emergence of merchants as a class.
However, the Reformation soon began and many church accessories fell out of fashion, including adobe miniatures.
Using microcomputer tomography and 3D scanning, researchers have discovered how complex these miniature altars are actually arranged.
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 with tiny connecting pieces.
But much of the production process remains unsolved.
