The City Of Nan Madol
This city consists of several artificial islands and the islands are linked to each other using a canal. But the fact that is that it is not clear to many people is how these were transported and even placed at such perfect places. Considering the technology of today also it would be a task that wouldn’t be easy to perform but at a time when there was almost negligible technology, it is a task that seems impossible.
Saddle Ridge Hoard
Imagine you’re walking your dog and suddenly you stumble across a pot full of gold coins.
This ecstatic feeling was experienced by a couple in 2013. This still remains the largest buried coin discovery in the U.S. and its face value amounts to $27980. The coins are in such an unspoiled condition that it looks like these coins never even came into circulation and no one knows its owner or the person who buried them.

The London Hammer
In 1936 a couple found a rock and with wood sticking out from it. They both took it home and started to open using a hammer and a chisel and found a hammer of unusual manner. When archeologists studied the hammer they came to the conclusion that the hammer was more than 400 million years old. And the shocking thing with the hammer was that it was made with more than 96% pure iron, which is quite a formidable task considering there was no technology like nowadays.
The Baby Disposal
While exploring the sewers underneath a Roman babyhouse in Israel, the archeologists came across the dark side of our ancestors. The research time found a vast number of infants’ bones and while examining those bones Professor Smith came to the conclusion that the infants very in good health and had no disease.
