These giant strange stone structures may give us a different perspective on ethnic groups tens of thousands of years ago.
Looking down from the sky of Kazakhstan, we discover a mystery that even top scientists still cannot explain: a giant mystery from ancient times still lying on the ground.
Satellite photos of a remote area, an arid, treeless steppe in northern Kazakhstan, show mounds of earth arranged in certain shapes, clearly man-made. They are circles, straight lines, and crosses as wide as several stadiums. They are named Steppe Geoglyphs.
The structures can only be seen from above, and the oldest areas are estimated to be more than 8,000 years old, the largest area being a giant square made up of 101 small mounds. , covering a total area larger than the Great Pyramid of Cheops.
The first time these strange stone structures were discovered in 2007 using the Google Earth tool, by an economist but someone interested in archaeological research, Dimitriy Dey. Until now, they are still an unsolved mystery.
“I have never seen anything like it; What a remarkable discovery,” said Compton J. Tucker, a senior biosphere scientist at NASA. And he added that NASA is currently “re-mapping this entire area,” adding it to the list of missions requiring astronauts currently on the International Space Station. ISS implemented.
“I don’t think these shapes were created so that we could see them from above and look down,” said Mr. Dey, the person who discovered the mysterious shapes on the Kazakh ground, with the intention of completely refuting the myth. People think this is a drawing of aliens. He theorized that those straight shapes were just the ancient people’s way of tracking the movement of the rising Sun.
“I was afraid that this was fake news,” epidemiology professor LaPorte said after reading the report. At that time, he was researching the disease right in Kazakhstan. With the help of James Jubilee, another science and technology expert, Professor LaPorte sought out Mr. Dey to confirm the above images. After he was convinced that these thousand-year-old traces were real, he quickly contacted the local government with the desire to bring UNESCO into action to protect the above areas. This vast steppe was once a destination for Stone Age people to hunt. According to Mr. Dey’s research, it could be the Mahandzhar culture, which flourished around 7,000 years BC to 5,000 years BC, perhaps they were the authors of those strange shapes. But what surprised scientists was not the culture, but the fact that culture had to be large enough and lived long enough in that land to be able to create such great works.
Perhaps, these discoveries will change the way we view ancient nomadic peoples. Could it be that people from that time lived into a large organization, even had an early culture?
According to him, in March 2007, after watching the program “Pyramids, Mummies and Catacombs” on Discovery Channel, he realized that everywhere in the world there were pyramids, probably Surely Kazkhstan must also have it! And he used Google Earth to conduct research.
There was no pyramid to be seen, but he made another discovery, something that caught Dey’s attention: it was a large square about 274 meters long, with a diagonal X in the middle. , he thought it was some old farmland, until he came across a shape that looked like a three-pronged swastika, about 90 meters in diameter.
By the end of 2007, Mr. Dey had discovered 9 more different squares, circles and diagonal shapes. In 2012, he found a total of 19 images and the current number is 260 images. In August 2007, he led an exploration team to the largest square to examine it in the field, which is now known as the Ushtogaysky Square, after the nearby village.
“It was extremely difficult to understand what it was from the ground,” Mr. Dey recall. “Straight lines stretch to the horizon. You won’t imagine what it could be.” They dug into those mounds but found nothing. However, in nearby areas, the field team found artifacts about 6,000 to 10,000 years old. Currently, Mr. Dey is planning to build a research station near these areas. “We cannot dig up all of these mounds,” he said. “We need modern technology, like Western scientists have.”
Both Professor LaPore, Mr. Dey and their team are considering using drones for research purposes, much like the Peruvian Ministry of Culture is doing to map and preserve Peru’s archaeological sites. Surname.
But time is not on their side, Mr. Dey said bitterly. One such area called Koga Cross was destroyed by road diggers in 2015. And even, “that was after we reported the matter to the authorities”. Destroying a large structure and an unsolved mystery would certainly be a great loss for the archaeological industry.
I just hope the authorities and NASA will get involved and not let this human mystery go into the pas
