Crytoarcaeology (or
Crypto-Archaeology) is the study of the strange and unusual from our
ancient past. It deals with the discoveries that don't fit our
traditional understanding of history, so is set aside for later study,
or ignored because it can not be made to fit - a bit like a jigsaw
puzzle with a wrong colored piece!
A good example of this
was the
Crystal Skulls - until very recently an enigma of archaeology - but
now, at last, the answer is crystal clear! Another is the
Pisco "Road of Holes" in Peru, where a mile long highway of
patterned craters exists. Others include the giant stone spheres of Costa
Rica, and perhaps the most famous are the Nazca Lines (except it
is not just Nazca, there are incredible geoglyphs elsewhere too!). And
still another are the Wheeled Artifacts of Ancient
America!
We hope you enjoy and
learn from these. Always keep an open mind, and remember that the
past is just a step away from our future!
