But despite our technological advances – sometimes archeology throws us a curveball – leading us to ask questions we simply can’t find the answer to. The cases on this list cdisplay such anomalies. These are 5 Bizarre and Unexplained Archeological Discoveries. 5. Frankenstein MummiesIt’s intersting enough to find ancient mummies, but more perplexing is to find these once mummified skeleton bones don’t even belong to the same human being. But that’s what archeologists and scientists discovered in South Uist, Scotland. Since the 80s, archeologists have identified Clad Hallan in Scotland as a special site containing ancient settlements dating back around 2000 BC. In 2001, it was business as usual for the archeologists, digging away at ancient 11th century houses over the Bronze age Village, when they discovered four preserved skeletons. One was a teenager, the other a child. The Two others were skeletons of an adult male and female. These latter two intrigued the team. 4. China CarvingsFuxian Lake in Yunnan Province, China is a huge lake featuring water so clear the ancient Chinese used to refer to it as “a large area of shining glass.” But its shimmery surface is also hiding something special underneath. On June 13, 2015, archeologists uncovered remains of an ancient structure buried under the lake. They found large stones with mysterious carvings, proving that at one time, a large complex or structure might have stood above ground or at least close to the lake.3. Giant Footprint of PingyanStories of giants roaming the Earth have been told for hundreds of years. From the Bible, to the Greeks, these tales are told with awe but often dismissed as nothing but literature and legends. But a discovery of a giant footprint in Pingyan, China could change all that. 2. Macedonian Werewolf SkullWerewolves are traditionally creatures of myth. But it seems proof of their existence might have been found in Novo Selo Stipsko, Macedonia. A Bulgarian student was visiting the village while doing research on the Balkan Wars when he came across a farmer named Trayche. He told him he was digging in a new portion of his field when he discovered a buried box that was chained shut. On the inside cover of the box were Cyrillic script, commonly used in Macedonian and Bulgarian language. The text on the box roughly read as “Attention Danger Werewolf” or “Caution Danger Vrykolakas (vampire.)1. Domestic Dinosaur CarvingThanks to Tomb Raider, the temple complex of Ta Prohm in Siem Reap, Cambodia gained so much attention it’s become one of the most visited tourist attractions in the world. Built between 1181 and 1218 A.D., the temple monastery was once used for worship by the Mahayana Buddhists. When the empire broke up, the temple then became abandoned. The forest moved in and reclaimed much of the structure until it was discovered in the 19th century. Much of the site was excavated, some restored and much of the forests and trees cleared out.Support the show Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I'm Patti and it's been said - many times - that I talk too much. I'm a teacher, author, nature lover and for ten years I owned a coffeehouse cafe where my faith in the goodness of humans was restored every day. This podcast highlights the awesomeness of humanity - er...outside the warmongers, globalists, tyrants and politicians in general. You know, the rest of us weird, quirky and sometimes hilarious humans.We'll talk woo, probe mysteries and leave you thinking about something more interesting or entertaining or uplifting than your grocery list, or boss or that oil change your car needs. I talk too much because I can't help my Gemini moon and Leo Rising nature. I do a podcast because it's cheaper, funnier and more productive than therapy.  EXPLORE WITH US Explore With Us If you love true crime and mysteries, you will love this podcast!
