400 MILLION YEAR OLD MACHINE


RUSSIA –  An artifact 400 million years old has been discovered.  The world’s first mechanical device!

 

In the remote Kamchatka peninsula (map below),  150 miles from Tigil, Russia, University of St. Petersburg archaeologists discovered a strange fossil. The authenticity of the find has been certified. According archaeologist Yuri Golubev, the discovery surprised scientists.  It was a machine.

It is not the first time that an artifact, an ancient object, something like this is found in that region. But, surprisingly, the machine,at first glance, inlaid in rock looked like the remnant of a volcano.

After analysis, it seems that it was made of metal parts that seem to form a mechanism, a gear which may be of a type of watch or computer.   The pieces were all dated – 400 million years ago!

Scientists said  hikers found these remains in rock.  The archaeologists went to the place and made the discovery. Hundreds of toothed cylinders made up the machine.They were in perfect state of conservation.  Archaeologists had to control the area, because the people began to appear in large numbers to look at it.   American geologists examined the machine and confirmed it was a machine.  They wer amazed. .

Nobody could believe that 400 million years ago could have existed on Earth even a man [even more a machine]. At that time, the forms of life were very simple, but the finding suggests the existence of intelligent beings capable of such technology. Certainly, such beings would had come from other planets.

 The parts reached the fossilization state in a period of time historically and geologically short.  Possibly, the “machine” fell into a swamp.

    As fossilization is the the petrification of organic matter and metal is not organic how can the metal be fossilised?

    • rudjedet says:

      Obviously that 400 million year old alien technology. I mean, really! It's clear as day, isn't it?

  3. Ralph says:

    Can metal be fossilized? Or were the gears made of wood?

    Proof of beings from another planet colonized earth in pre historic times

    • John says:

      Who says they were from another planet? They could've been advanced inhabitants of this one?

      They could've branched from a different animal. Who knows? Who's to say they weren't early humans?
      There are so many questions – but you can't just conclude that it is "proof" of interstellar travellers.

  5. John says:

    Does it run on fossil fuel?

  6. Tony says:

    Michael Cremo is right.

  8. Mienja says:

    they're fossils – crinoid stem fossil to be more precise. Google it then hit your images tab

    • mymarkx says:

      I googled it and looked at the images. These are not crinoid stem fossils.

    • AgTip says:

      Certainly a very close similarity and, if forced at gunpoint, I would probably say, yes, these are crinoid stem fossil relatives … while thinking to myself "not conclusive".

    I think, encient technolgy was superior and what we boat to-day that,many invented and discovered,but all are old. To-days science and technology is all old,nothing new.
    Human being was there on earth,there was society and culture. All those things are lost or vanished from earth by cosmic changes and some bigger bang may occure some time 500 million years ago and vanished every thing. It is possible, some thing may surface any where on earth one day,which are 1000 milion years old. It is not surprice or new, all are quite old history.

    What a load of cobblers… first of all these are crinoid stem fossils, secondly Yuri Gobulev of St. Petersburg University is a physicist not an archaeologist… if you're going to write BS articles to sell adverts on a web page at least do a bit of research first….

    Haven't you read the Hopi Indian comments about creation. According to them this is fifth, if I remember right.

    @ John thanks for the laugh, I needed it!

    I had a look at articles about crinoids, and they look ‘biological’. These ‘gear’ like objects do not look biological. I am not saying that they aren’t, but there is enough ‘smoke’ in the air lately about alternative history than the one we know. All oppinions should be respected, and denial is not a solution. It is amazing how a ‘fancy’ satelite imagery recently discovered burried city in Egypt, which blows all theories until now. And this is a key thing here. The term theory. Everything we talk about is theoretical. It doesn’t mean it is or isn’t the truth. Personally, I don’t believe we are alone in this space. And my theory may be simillar to theories of other people. But it is just a theory. If we, as a civilisation, didn’t theorise, we would be ‘nothing’. A speck of dust without a purpuse. So let’s put all theories on table and open ourselves to the universe. I am sure we will discover things we never even dreamt of.

    • rudjedet says:

      A theory in science/archaeology is usually more a well-educated guess based on a statistically high probability than 'just' a theory. Take that satellite image you mentioned: the media blows it up, saying that they HAVE found a huge site, while in reality it's more likely that we're dealing with different densities in the ground (such as large caches of rock) the satellite picked up. It most certainly doesn't 'blow all theories until now'. If a single buried city did that, something has gone terribly wrong in Egyptology somewhere.

      That said, I agree that the most important trait for any scientist is an open mind. There are too many of us who desperately cling to pre-conceived notions and old theories, bending the evidence to fit the theory instead of the other way around.

    • Pat says:

      The picture is of a crinoids. This isn't a guess, as they took the picture they are using from a thing on crinoids…

    • Mehlinda Heartt says:

      I agree, lets open our minds to possibilities and who knows what can happen tomorrow

    proof that our dating methods are not accurate dont belive me scientists found a mamoth skeleton in the yukon the same team dated its left and right femour and found that the age diffrence was over 100,000 years (not possable) so they sent bones to 10 diffrent dating centers and got 7 completly diffrent dates (out by tens of thousands of years)

  17. thatoneguy says:

    do people actually believe the weekly world news at fucking all?

  18. rudjedet says:

    "They were in perfect state of conservation." While I don't deny that many artefacts can be nearly perfectly conserved, that's alarm bells right there when we're talking about something allegedly 400 million years of age.

    The last two paragraphs of the 'article' seal it for me, though. It's exceedingly optimistic, not to mention highly unrealistic, to immediately start throwing aliens into the equation as the explanation for this find. Also, I would like to add that there have been many instances of archaeological hoaxes declared genuine by experts.

    But if we're really going to guess, I'm gonna put my money on the Old Ones.

    • AgTip says:

      I, too, believe the Old Ones are responsible for many of the finds we stumble across these days.. To assume that the Old Ones were thick-headed gumby-fingered oafs is foolishness. The cave folk were nimble and witty. And there is much in the mythology of Native Peoples that suggests many previous civilizations have existed. We have in our own culture the stories of Moo and Atlantis. Human beings as we know them are late comers; we have some very intelligent ancestors.

  19. RodT says:

    There are hundreds of such ooparts surfacing from around the world and they all point one way. The sandal print, fossilised finger, fossilised hammer, the creators map, the iron pot in coal, nails fossilised into sandstone (the metal has not fossilised, it is the sand or mud around it that has turned to stone). Not to mention pictures of pterodactyls carved into Egyptian temple walls and depictions of humanoids riding on dinosaurs on the Ica Stones. Humans have only been on Earth for 250 000 years or so, so any evidence of humanoids millions of years ago is clearly evidence of visits by people from another planet.

  20. RodT says:

    And I am a botanist, not an archaeologist or palaeontologist either, but I can still see that those "gears" are NOT crinoids.

  21. RodT says:

    okay, this looks like a fossil of the crinoid species Laudonomphalus regularis. Maybe this story is disinfo spread to sow disbelief about other ooparts that have been more closely studied. A good lesson not to jump to conclusions even if they do sound plausible based on the discovery of other ooparts I have heard about.
