It's all fake. What are the three lies in the scientific community, and why do some people believe them?

Friends who are familiar with history should know that human beings experienced a drastic change in productivity in the 1960s in 18, and it was this change that pushed the whole human civilization onto the "fast lane" of development, and then achieved such brilliant civilization achievements today, and the strength of science and technology was strong.

With the help of this scientific and technological force, human beings not only began to "broaden" their horizons, but also seemed to be one step closer to the answer to the ultimate question "Where did human beings come from?". .

With the in-depth study of this issue, a curious question appears in some people's minds: Apart from human civilization, has the earth nurtured other intelligent civilizations?

In fact, since the day it was put forward, the debate on "prehistoric civilization theory" has never stopped, because the distant time and space are too far away now, leaving people with infinite room for reverie.

However, although it is difficult to verify the existence of prehistoric civilization, it is relatively simple to verify the object named "prehistoric civilization". Let's take a look at three "prehistoric relics" lies that are widely circulated in the scientific community.

First of all, the crystal skull

Friends who like to watch "Unsolved Mysteries" will be familiar with the crystal skull, because every unsolved mystery will take a lot of space to introduce it in detail.

The first person who discovered the crystal skull in the world was the British explorer Mitchell Haigis. 1926, Mitchell Haigis and his daughter Anna found it in the ruins of Mayan civilization, and thousands of Mayan cultural relics were unearthed at the same time.

The identification results at that time showed that this Mayan crystal skull was beautifully shaped and had no artificial traces on its surface. At least 3600 ~ 4000 years old. Some scholars even bluntly said that it may not be a sculpture made of crystal, but the skull of some mysterious creature.

If the scholar's judgment is correct, then what creature's skull is as crystal clear as crystal? No one can know the answer to this question, so people regard this skull as an alien skull, so that when the exhibition is held in the British Museum, the introduction board next to it reads "alien skull".

So is it a biological skull? Or is it related to Mayan civilization? The answer is of course no.

More than half a century after the discovery of the crystal skull, some scientists reconstructed the crystal skull with high precision through some methods. The recovered facial features were not Central Americans thousands of years ago, but genuine modern Europeans, which obviously overthrew Mitchell Haigis's statement that he was found in the ruins of Mayan civilization.

Then scientists put the crystal skull under a microscope, and the observation results showed that there were no traces of hand-carved technology on the crystal skull, but traces of machine polishing.

In this regard, under the witness of many historians and archaeologists, it is confirmed that the crystal skull that has been circulating for more than half a century is actually a craft product that has been cut, polished and polished by modern methods, and all kinds of legends about it are just a joke.

Second, the ancient battery

1936, a small pottery jar with a strange shape was found in Baghdad, Iraq. The jar is about the size of a palm, and a metal tube is inserted directly into the bottom from the outside.

At first, people didn't know what it was for, until someone poured some acidic liquid into it and found that it could send out an electric current that made the palm slightly numb. Only then did I know that it was a battery.

This amazing discovery shocked the scientific community at that time, because in everyone's impression, the battery was a modern product, so it was found that the shock brought by the battery thousands of years ago was no less than that of the ancients who invented the plane. Just like this, some supporters of prehistoric civilization theory believe that this is the best proof of the existence of prehistoric civilization.

So is the Baghdad battery really proof of the existence of prehistoric civilization? The answer is no, of course. Through the research on its disassembly, scientists found that the actual current released by the Baghdad battery is very small and cannot be used for daily life, let alone industrial activities.

Then, combined with the local history and culture, scientists believe that the Baghdad battery is not a proof of prehistoric civilization, but a religious activity, with the aim of making believers feel partially paralyzed and believe in the existence of "God".

Spark plugs 500,000 years ago

196 1 year, several travelers accidentally found a strange-looking stone while playing by a river in Orancha, California. Everyone present was shocked after trying to break the stone, because there was a machine part-spark plug inside.

It is rumored that the stone that wraps this spark plug will take at least 500,000 years to form, which means that this spark plug has a history of at least 500,000 years.

However, it took only a few hundred years for human beings to enter the industrial society where spark plugs can be made. What's more, 500 thousand years ago, the earth was still dominated by Neanderthals, and there was no so-called civilization at all, let alone advanced industry. So who did it? Was there an advanced prehistoric industrial civilization on the earth hundreds of thousands of years ago?

There is no need to think so much about this problem, because the manufacturer of this spark plug is not the legendary prehistoric civilization.

Because according to the laboratory analysis, the stone covering the spark plug is not the hard stone you usually see, but a hardened clay. It doesn't take 500 thousand years to form the shape shown in the picture at all, but ten years is enough.

These are three lies that have been circulating in the scientific community for more than half a century. Even though scientists have exposed them decades ago, many people still believe them for various reasons.
