Flat-topped pyramids, temples, sacrifices, sacred Andean animals, and astronomical observations – the Cochasqui archaeological site in Ecuador is massive in size and significance.
Archaeologists have concluded that a Byzantine-era amulet unearthed 40 years ago in Arbel, Israel, was used for protection against the evil eye. But who did it protect?
In 1872, construction workers digging a hole for a fence post near the shores of Lake Winnipesaukee in New England found a lump of clay, with an egg shaped artifact inside it, six feet below the ground. Called the ‘Mystery Stone’, it is one of New Hampshire's more curious and lesser known relics. Amateur and professional archaeologists have speculated about the origin of this strange artifact for well over one hundred years with no clear answers emerging.
For thousands of years, the sudden appearance of a ring of mushrooms was a sure sign of otherworldly presences. These rings would seemingly appear overnight, or travel from one location to another, with no clear rhyme or reason.
