Inside King Tut's $1Billion Dollar Tomb

There are many treasures hidden within the tomb of Egypt’s young pharaoh, King Tutankhamun. The legendary tomb was first discovered by Howard Carter in 1922 in ‘The Valley of the Kings’, and since its discovery over 5,000 items have been removed from the burial site and exhibited all around the world. These priceless pieces of history have been insured for almost a billion dollars as they travel the planet. But what did King Tut’s tomb look like before humans got to it-- when Howard Carter first discovered one of the most valuable finds in all of human history?

Let’s take a tour of the legendary tomb just as it was when Carter first stepped foot into the passageway that would lead him to King Tut’s final resting place. Inside we’ll find gold chariots, thrones, secret doors, lavish oils, priceless jewels, statues galore and even perfectly preserved organs. We’ll also explore the sarcophagus of the young boy-king, which is encased in more than $3 million worth of gold. And we definitely can’t forget about the last room in the tomb-- his treasury, overflowing with valuable goods that were meant to follow him into the afterlife. Now all of King Tut’s treasures will be on display at the Grand Egyptian Museum-- a $1 billion building. But before we go visiting exhibits, let’s enjoy all these hidden secrets and buried treasure the way they were originally placed to help the pharaoh on his journey. Let’s explore the legendary tomb of King Tut.

What Is Found After The Jordan River Dried Up Shocked Scientists

As scientists show off their latest discoveries at the Jordan River, rumors start to spread that something unbelievable is going on, something that goes against all logic and reason. People start to talk about a scary, mysterious event that makes them wonder: who or what is coming back from the depths of the river? As tensions rise and rumors spread like wildfire, the world waits with bated breath for what could be the most shocking discovery of our time.

The Jordan River travels through the Jordan Rift Valley before entering the Kinneret. After entering the Kinneret, the Jordan River continues its journey to the Dead Sea, where it terminates. It is the location of a great number of significant biblical events. However, the scene of Jesus Christ being baptized by John the Baptist is the first thing that comes to mind for the vast majority of Christians when they think of the river.

The Euphrates River Finally Dried Up And Now This Has Emerged

The Euphrates River, a lifeline to millions, is slowly disappearing, and with it, the hopes and dreams of an entire region. But what is causing the river to dry up? Is it just a natural occurrence or something more sinister? And what do scientists mean by a "horrifying discovery" beneath its once-flowing waters? As the world watches in fear, the prophecy that foretold of the Euphrates' demise appears to be coming true, leaving us to wonder: what other secrets lie hidden beneath its dry riverbed, waiting to be uncovered?

Australopithecus - A Crucial Evolutionary Link

Australopithecus, meaning “southern ape”, was an early hominin that existed in Africa during the Late Pliocene and Early Pleistocene. The genera Homo, which includes modern humans, Paranthropus, and Kenyanthropus evolved from Australopithecus. In other words, Australopithecus were primates closely related to, if not actually ancestors of, modern human beings. For this reason, it is a crucial evolutionary link between nonhuman ape-like creatures and early human species. It is perhaps one of the richest paleoanthropological finds with fossils like “Lucy” yielding significant insights into our evolutionary past.

Species are numerous, and include Australopithecus garhi, Australopithecus africanus, Australopithecus sediba, Australopithecus afarensis, Australopithecus anamensis, Australopithecus bahrelghazali, and Australopithecus deyiremeda.

Australopithecus is known from a series of fossils found at numerous sites in eastern, north-central, and southern Africa, also known as the cradle of humankind. For the longest time, scientists believed our early ancestors arose from Europe or Asia, yet in 1924, a fossil discovery in South Africa revolutionized the perception of early human evolution, known as the Taung Child, which we will get to later in the video.

The earliest known member of the genus, Australopithecus anamensis, existed in eastern Africa around 4.2 million years ago, possessing a smaller cranial capacity than other australopithecines. Australopithecus fossils become more widely dispersed throughout eastern and southern Africa, with the Chadian Australopithecus bahrelghazali indicating the genus was much more widespread than the fossil record suggests, before eventually becoming extinct 1.9 million years ago, or 1.2 million to 600,000 years ago if Paranthropus is included, during the Pliocene and Pleistocene epochs. The validity of Paranthropus is contested, with paleoanthropologists currently debating about synonymy with Australopithecus. While none of the groups normally directly assigned to this group survived, including the subspecies, Australopithecus gave rise to living descendants: humans, or Homo, which emerged from an Australopithecus species some time between 3 and 2 million years ago. One of the greatest mysteries in paleoanthropology might be the exact species from which early Homo arose, whose discovery could notably change our view of early human evolution.

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.
