#thecosmosnews Archaeologists Unearthed Mysterious Prehistoric Spheres in the Amazon—Inside Were Bones That Shouldn’t Be Together
A mysterious discovery deep in the Amazon is rewriting everything we thought we knew about ancient rainforest civilizations. Hidden beneath a fallen tree, strange artifacts filled with unexpected remains hint at lost rituals, unknown cultures, and a forgotten world engineered with startling sophistication.
Unusual artifacts found under a tree in the Amazon rainforest surprised archaeologists
Seven ceramic funerary urns were found beneath the roots of a toppled tree in a remote floodplain of the Brazilian Amazon, according to a report. The largest measured nearly 3 feet across and weighed about 770 pounds.
Bones from people, fish, and turtles lay inside several vessels. Archaeologist Márcio Amaral, of the Mamirauá Institute for Sustainable Development, helped lead the work.
