Terrifying Discovery At Cleopatra s Tomb In Egypt That Changes History
On November 20, 2022, the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquity took to social media to share the news of discovering a massive, magnificent tunnel that is being dubbed a "geometric miracle" beneath a temple in the ancient city of Taposiris Magna, which is now a ruin on the coast of Egypt.
The tunnel is said to be thirteen meters below the surface and was discovered by Kathleen Martinez of the University of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic and colleagues during ongoing excavations and exploration of the temple. And just like us, it has also left Kathleen, her team and all the archaeologists baffled, around the world.
What was the purpose of this tunnel? Are there more hidden tunnels like this? And the most important one, is this tunnel finally a breakthrough to Cleopatra and Antony’s lost tomb? Let’s find out.
10 Suspicious Underwater Observations
Ancient writings that have remained clearly demonstrate the idea that new territory might appear from the sea while older ones might disappear beneath it, erasing earlier civilizations. Atlantis is the most well-known of the extinct continents, having been extensively described by Plato about 2,500 years ago. As humanity developed flying, sonar, and diving technologies over the previous century, a number of undersea anomalies were discovered.
Not all of the sites are, though, and usually the water's depth limits our research to sonar scans and samples collected by submersibles. Several have explored and studied in-depth places like the Bimini Road.
10 Mound in the Sea of Galilee
In 2003, a massive circular stone structure in the Sea of Galilee filled 30 feet (9 meters) of water, which astounded scientists. The structure, which is composed of basalt boulders that have been placed in a cone shape, is twice as large as Stonehenge in the UK. It could potentially be a ramp or a ceremonial structure, but according to recent archaeologists' discoveries, it shares some traits with ancient communal burial sites found all over the world. They have never seen a building of this size with its distinctive features, so they can only speculate as to the structure's exact construction date, method, and purpose.
9 Google Earth Circular Anomalies
The circular abnormalities that can be seen off the coastlines of Florida, North Carolina, and Belize have been documented by both amateurs and archaeologists. Although they are common, their purpose has not been established; many believe they were prehistoric burial mounds. Moreover, they resemble the stone structures seen in Saudi Arabia that may be seen on this website. It is believed that the underwater structures are older than those on land and may date to 8,000 BC or earlier since they have been better preserved than those on land, which have been dated to roughly 7,000 BC in Saudi Arabia.
8 Structure in Lake Macdonald, Ontario
Divers discovered evidence of Eastern Canada's ancient past in 2005 while taking part in a unique underwater expedition. The truly odd stone structure was found 40 feet (12 meters) below the surface. One massive 1,000-lb (453 kg) elongated rock with a virtually smooth surface and seven stones the size of baseballs make up the structure. This enormous stone, weighing several thousand pounds, is resting on a ledge. It was first thought to be a natural feature before geologists and archaeologists looked at the images. The discovery of the man-made "rock cairn" was deemed to be established when an underwater anthropologist judged that the presence of three shims was sufficient proof that the monument was man-made.
7 Baltic Sea Anomalies
The discovery of the disc-shaped Baltic Sea anomaly (and its following research in 2012) had everyone who was interested on the edge of their seats, regardless of whether it was a UFO, a Nazi anti-submarine defense device, or simply a glacier rock that had been carried over the sea floor.
Despite generally persuading everyone that it is a rock and not a UFO, Swedish explorers' research has generated a lot of questions. First of all, the boulder lacked a silt layer, which is often present on rocks that have remained stationary at the ocean's bottom for any length of time. The 196 feet (60 m) wide rock also looks to be supported by a 26 foot (8 m) high pillar and is covered by construction lines and boxes.
6 Lake Baikal Mystery
Southern Siberia's Lake Baikal is exceptional in many ways. It is the world's largest, oldest, and deepest freshwater lake. The lake's silt deposit is more than 4 miles (7 km) deep, and many of the fish species that survive there are unique to the lake's waters. When they noticed a fairly wide circular region of thinning ice near the southern end of the lake in April 2009, astronauts aboard the International Space Station were frightened. The lake's ice cover typically lasts into June. They were shocked to see yet another feature above the lake's dividing underwater ridge.
The unusual pattern would indicate that warmer water was transported to the surface, albeit the origin of the circles is unknown. Hydrothermal activity has never been seen over the extremely deep water at the southern extremity of the lake.
5 Lake Michigan’s Stonehenge
Despite being one of the most well-known ancient stone monuments in the world, Stonehenge in the UK is not the only one. There are similar stone configurations all throughout the world. A group of underwater archaeologists stumbled upon a circle of stones 40 feet (12 meters) below the surface of Lake Michigan in 2007 while using sonar to map the lake's bottom. A carving of a mastodon, an animal that has been extinct for 10,000 years, also appeared on one of the stones. If the site is authenticated, it wouldn't be wholly out of place because there are nearby stone circles and petroglyph sites.
4 Cuba’s Underwater City
Archaeologists, scholars, and Atlantis-hunters from all over the world were fascinated by a group of submerged structures that were found off the coast of Cuba in 2001. The symmetrical and geometric formations, which cover an area of 200 ha (almost 2 square km) at depths between 2,000 and 2,460 feet ( 700 m), were discovered by a team performing surveying work. Since it would have taken the structures 50,000 years to descend to their current depth, critics contend that the site is too deep to be man-made. The Maya and local Yucateco legends of an ancient island home to their ancestors that sunk beneath the water would be supported if concrete evidence could be produced that these constructions were created by humans.
3 Japan’s Yonaguni Monument
The enormous Yonaguni Monument off the coast of Japan has been the focus of discussion among scientists, archaeologists, and academics ever since it was discovered in 1987. Many proponents assert that although the location is natural, it may have undergone human intervention, similar to Sacsayhuaman's rock-hewn terraces. If confirmed, the site would have undergone modifications approximately 10,000 BC, during the previous ice age. On the other hand, skeptics think the entire building is natural and that the carvings and patterns that have been noticed are simply natural scratches. Despite the fact that Yonaguni's traits may be seen in numerous sandstone formations across the globe, it is implausible that there are so many suspicious formations at one location.
2 Bimini Structures
Using side-scan sonar and sub-bottom profiling, missions in 2006 and 2007 explored the deeper waters to the west of Bimini. A few rectangular features were found at a depth of 30 meters (100 feet). Straight, parallel lines connect them all in the same direction. The buildings, according to the experts, resemble those discovered off the coast of Cuba quite a bit. The formations were more clearly seen at a later dive organized by the History Channel. There are roughly 50 stone heaps, most of which measure 10 by 45 feet and are all located at a depth indicating an antiquity of 10,000 BC.
1 Gulf of Khambhat Discovery
In May 2001, it was announced that ancient city ruins had been found close to the Gulf of Khambhat. The discovery was made using sonar as normal pollution inspections were being carried out. At the announcement, it was noted that the location had residences that are evenly spaced apart, a drainage system, a bath, a granary, and a citadel that predates the Indus Valley Civilization. Further investigations involved dredging the region, where numerous objects were discovered. These were discovered around 7,000 years ago, together with wood, stones that were thought to be hand tools, petrified bones, pottery sherds, and a tooth.
All of the supposed artifacts are stones of natural origin, the "sherds" are natural geofacts, and the dredging could have picked up stray artifacts alongside the site's artefacts, raising suspicion about the discovery.
New dinosaur species with enormous sword-like claws were discovered in Japan.

A bipedal dinosaur with blades for fingertips once stalked the Asian continent's coastline millions of years ago. But a recent study found that instead of dissecting animal prey, these Edward Scissorhands-like tools were employed to chop vegetation.
The dinosaur belonged to a species of three-toed, bipedal, herbivorous dinosaurs known as therizinosaurs that lived between 145 million and 66 million years ago. The youngest therizinosaur fossil ever discovered in Japan—and the first one ever discovered in Asia in marine sediments—has just been described by scientists from Japan and the United States.
The researchers called this fossil Paralitherizinosaurus japonicus, which they believe represents a newly discovered species. The scientific name for the genus, which was already well-known, is "reptile by the sea" in Greek and Latin. The species name pays tribute to Japan, the country where the specimen was discovered.
A second group of researchers found the hook-shaped fossil in 2008; since then, it has been kept in the collections of the Nakagawa Museum of Natural History in Hokkaido, Japan. The fossil contains a fragmentary spine, wrist, and forefoot.
The specimen was discovered by Japanese scientists in Nakagawa, a region of Hokkaido, the northernmost of Japan's main islands, which is renowned for its abundant fossil beds. Paleontologists at the time of the fossil's discovery said it "was believed to belong to a therizinosaur," but due to a lack of comparative information at the time, the original researchers were unable to come to any firm conclusions, according to representatives of Hokkaido University in a statement. The fossil was encased in a concretion, a hardened mineral deposit.

It has been possible to classify the fossil based on the shape of the forefoot claw thanks to new information from numerous other fossils that have been found and described in the intervening years. In order to obtain clear answers, a new group of paleontologists went back to the specimen.
Therizinosaurs, which lived between 80 million and 82 million years ago, are believed to have left behind the fossil, which is slightly under 4 inches (10 centimeters) in length, according to the current study's authors' research. The sword-like claw that the dinosaur previously used to comb through foliage in search of food to consume is preserved in the fossilized foot bone. The specimen was found to be a derived therizinosaur rather than a basal, or early, therizinosaur, with claws that were "generalized and not for specific use," according to the statement. Researchers believe the animal used its claws for a specific purpose.
"[This dinosaur] used its claws as foraging tools, rather than tools of aggression, to draw shrubs and trees closer to its mouth to eat," study co-author Anthony Fiorillo, a research professor in the Roy M. Huffington Department of Earth Sciences at Southern Methodist University (SMU) in Dallas, said in an interview with Live Science. "We think it washed out to sea after dying on land."

Therizinosaur fossils have been discovered in North America, Asia, and notably in what is now Alaska's Denali National Park and Preserve. The study claims that the animals evolved to live in coastal habitats throughout time. Prior to this discovery, two more possible therizinosaur fossils were found in Japan; however, they have not yet been characterized.
According to Fiorillo, it's impossible to determine the exact size of the therizinosaur based just on this specimen. According to the University of California Museum of Paleontology, experts can conclude with certainty that the dinosaur was "sizable," probably comparable to a hadrosaur, or duck-billed dinosaur, which could grow to be 30 feet long (9 meters) and weigh up to 3 tons (2.7 metric tons). The fossil is so well-preserved that, according to Fiorillo, "if we went back to the original site, we might find more of the animal."
"We remain cautiously optimistic, and it's on our radar," Fiorillo, who is also a former curator at the Perot Museum of Nature and Science in Dallas, continued.
Here's Why Trying to Become a Type 1 Civilization is a Bad Idea
There are several ways we can measure the progress of human civilization. Population growth, the rise and fall of empires, our technological ability to reach for the stars.
But one simple measure is to calculate the amount of energy humans use at any given time. As humanity has spread and advanced, our ability to harness energy is one of our most useful skills.

The Largest Volcano Of All Time Just Split The Earth Apart
Are you ready to witness the ultimate display of nature's power? Hold on to your seats because the largest volcano of all time has just cracked open the Earth!
Scientists and experts are in a frenzy, trying to determine the potential impact of this unprecedented event. Will the volcano unleash a destructive force, unlike anything we have ever seen before? Will it cause massive damage and loss of life in the surrounding areas? Or will it trigger a chain reaction that could alter the course of history forever?
A year ago, the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai submarine volcano just north of Tonga's main island, erupted in massive fashion, sending a shockwave around the world from its South Pacific epicenter as it produced a plume of water and ash that soared higher into the atmosphere than any other on record, and triggering tsunami waves that ricocheted across the region, crashing into the archipelago, which is located southeast of Fiji. Tonga, an island nation, is still dealing with the aftermath of the damage to its coastal waters even after a year has passed.
