10 Unexplained Archaeological Discoveries NUMBER 10: THE DEVIL’S BIBLE The Codex Gigas [Codex Gee-gas], also known
as The Devil’s Bible, is an object surrounded by myth and mystery. Legend has it that the text was written by
a 13th century monk on the orders of the devil. The monk supposedly wrote the book in a single
night, and Satan marked it with a portrait of himself. It is estimated that such a manuscript - which
was written on over 160 animal skins and requires two people to lift - would have taken approximately
30 years to write. Bizarrely, analysis found that the handwriting
remains remarkably even throughout the bible, implying that it was written by a single person
over a very short period of time. NUMBER 9: THE PIRI REIS [Pi-ree Rays] MAP Discovered in 1929, this curious map was written
in 1513 by Piri Reis [Pi-ree Rays], an admiral of the Turkish navy. The map depicts Europe, North Africa, the
coast of Brazil, and even Antarctica - although it’s thought that the continent wasn’t
discovered until more than 300 years later. Mysteriously, the map describes Antarctica’s
features in meticulous detail, including areas that have been covered in ice for the last
6000 years. Scientists are baffled by how Piri Reis would
have been able to map out the landscape beneath the ice as accurately as he did. NUMBER 8: THE ANTIKYTHERA MECHANISM [Anti-kith-era] The Antikythera [Anti-kith-era] Mechanism,
dubbed the ‘first computer’, is a clock-like machine that was discovered near the Greek
island of Antikythera in 1902. The 2000-year-old instrument is believed to
have been used by Ancient Greek scientists to predict astronomical positions. Its design
is so complex that its discovery forced a re-evaluation of our understanding of ancient
engineering capabilities. What is especially mysterious about the mechanism
is that no contemporary documentation mentions it, nor have any earlier prototypes been discovered. Also, the technology behind the mechanism
was strangely forgotten, as no comparable inventions existed until the fourteenth century. NUMBER 7: THE RONGORONGO WRITING Believed to be a form of early writing, the
rongorongo glyphs are a series of wooden carvings discovered in 1864 on Easter Island. Despite several attempts by experts, nobody
has ever been able to decipher the meaning of the symbols. If the cryptic symbols do turn out to be writing,
they would constitute one of only three or four times that humans independently developed
systems of writing. Some scholars also believe that translating
the glyphs may offer an insight into why the early civilization of Easter Island collapsed. But, with translation efforts exhausted, it
looks unlikely that we will ever be able to find out their true meaning. NUMBER 6: BAGHDAD BATTERY The Baghdad Battery is a ceramic pot that
was found near Baghdad in Iraq, along with a metal rod and a tube. It was speculated that it may have been used
for coating silver objects with gold, through a process called electroplating. Modern experiments
on replicas of the vase show that this would have been theoretically possible. As the items have been dated to between 250
BC and 224 AD, the existence of such technology could evidence an understanding of electricity
much earlier than previously thought. Another possible explanation for the pot is
that it was a storage vessel for sacred scrolls, but there is no absolute proof for either
theory. NUMBER 5: ROMAN DODECAHEDRONS First reported in the early 18th century,
116 dodecahedral Roman artifacts have been discovered in various locations, ranging from
Wales to Hungary. The bizarrely-shaped objects are all made
of either bronze or stone and range from 4cm to 11cm in size. There is a great degree of mystery around
what the objects were used for. Because many were found in temples, some speculate
that they are of religious significance. Other ideas include children’s toys, instruments
of war, candlestick holders, or even knitting aids. However, because there are no accounts of
them in Roman records, historians are unable to definitively prove what their purpose was. NUMBER 4: THE LONGYOU GROTTOES [long-yoo grott-oze] The Longyou Grottoes are a series of manmade
caves in China, which date back to 212 BC. Covering a massive 30,000 square meters and
including a series of rooms, bridges, and pools, their discovery in 1992 represented
one of the largest underground excavations ever. Archeologists, engineers, historians, and
geologists have all investigated the grottoes, but - mysteriously – no one has any idea
how they were constructed. It’s been estimated that it would have taken
1,000 people, working day and night over six years to complete the caves. Yet no tools
have ever been found in the area and there isn’t a single reference to them in any
documents from the era. NUMBER 3: YONAGUNI MONUMENT [Yo-nah-goo-nee] The Yonaguni Monument is an underwater pyramid-shaped
structure that was discovered off the coast of Japan in 1986. Leading experts disagree on whether the structure
is man made or a natural rock formation. Professor Masaaki Kimura [Mas-are-key Kim-oo-rah]
of the University of the Ryukyus [Ree-ooh-cus] points to the structure’s steps and columns
as evidence that humans constructed it when the area was above sea level some 10,000 years
ago. But Boston’s Dr Robert Schoch [Shock], on
the other hand, argues that water erosion and earthquakes could have caused these formations. There is insufficient evidence on both sides
of the debate to offer an undeniable conclusion. NUMBER 2: COSTA RICA STONE SPHERES Ranging in diameter from a few centimeters
to over 2 ½ meters, these perfect stone spheres are among the world’s most famous unexplainable
discoveries. They were first noted in the 1940s and since
then over 300 have been found, scattered throughout the Costa Rican jungle. They date back to
between 500 and 1500 BC, and no one knows what they were made for. One theory is that they were distributed by
people familiar with astronomical alignments, because of the way they were carefully arranged. However, since the majority of the spheres
have been moved from their original locations, it is impossible to further test this idea. NUMBER 1: THE SEWER OF BABIES In 1988 archaeologists excavating an Ancient
Roman sewer under a bathhouse in Ashkelon, Israel, made a haunting discovery: the skeletons
of nearly 100 newborn babies. None of the bodies showed evidence of disease
or skeletal malformation, implying that they had not died of natural causes. Due to the regularity of female infanticide
in Ancient Rome, initial suspicions were that the sewers had been used as a mass grave for
unwanted daughters. However, when it emerged that a large proportion of the bones belonged
to boy babies, archaeologists were stumped. To this day, nobody knows why such a large
number of bodies would be found in this specific location.
Cocaine is a hell of a drug
I tried finding articles that talk about this so-called sexual assault, but I found nothing. These channels really need to do some more research before putting stuff like that out there.
If you read Corey's book about ghosts, he does mention that the mansion had a lot of fucked up supernatural shit going on. Don't know about sexual assault tho.
This article talks about Joey feeling a ghostly presence in the mansion but that's about it. Nothing more, nothing less.
lolll sexual assault come on hahaha joey got raped by a ghost? shitty story but some supernatural shit have happen to this mansion when they recorded it
