There are so many things that humans don’t know
If you want to have a more comprehensive understanding of the unsolved mysteries of the world, you can go to the bookstore Search for such books, such as: "The World of Unsolved Secrets - Part 1, Middle and Part 2" by Beijing Publishing House, "The World of Unsolved Secrets" (full twelve volumes) by Jinghua Publishing House ), "Mysteries of Nature" (Millions of Unsolved Mysteries) by Times Literature and Art Publishing House, etc.
Here are a few introductions:
The mystery of hanging coffins in Jiuqu River in Wuyi Mountain
Like sky burials and water burials, hanging coffin burials are an ancient form of funeral. The burial site is generally chosen on a high cliff facing the river. The coffin is placed in a natural or artificial cave tens to hundreds of meters away from the water. Some are placed directly on suspended wooden piles. There are still more than ten hanging coffin remains on the cliffs on both sides of the Jiuqu River in Wuyi Mountain.
After carbon 14 dating, the two well-preserved boat coffins in Baiyan and Guanyinyan are more than 3,000 years old. The turtle-shaped wooden plate buried with them is a relic with the characteristics of Shang and Zhou bronze culture.
According to research, there were many large and small tribes distributed in southern my country at that time. Most of them had certain unique cultural characteristics, so they were collectively called the Guyue people by modern people. Boats are an indispensable tool in the lives of the ancient Vietnamese people. Putting the deceased into a boat-shaped coffin is a sign of respect for the deceased. Out of admiration for the mountains, they placed the deceased in the place closest to the "god" so that they would not be disturbed by the world and thus better protect future generations.
How is a coffin weighing hundreds of kilograms placed on a hanging cliff? From the square holes drilled at both ends of the coffin lid for threading ropes, it is inferred that the coffin was hung by a suspension cable. The terrain behind or on both sides of the cliff where the hanging coffin is placed is usually relatively gentle. People first transport the coffin up the mountain, send craftsmen to dig caves or set up wooden stakes, and then hoist the coffin. Sometimes, a parallel passage is dug along the cliff and the coffins are pushed in sequence. A batch of coffins can be placed together to save a lot of trouble. According to the records of "Linhai Tujia" written by Shen Ying of Wu during the Three Kingdoms period, the "Anjia people" from Ruian, Zhejiang to Lianjiang, Fujian were very similar to the "Taiwan natives" and "Yizhou people" in terms of diet, daily life, customs and habits. There is a custom of hanging coffin burial. Among the Yamei people of Orchid Island, a remote island in Taiwan, this burial custom is still preserved to this day.
The Eternal Mystery Pyramid
Khufu’s Pyramid is the largest, highest-level, and best-preserved pyramid in the Giza area. It was built around 2570 BC. It was built on the order of Pharaoh Khufu. The pyramid is 146.5 meters high and has been the tallest building on earth for thousands of years. It is made of 2.3 million pieces of polished limestone, with an average weight of about 2.5 tons per rock.
There are three tombs in the Great Pyramid. The first one was originally the tomb of Khufu. A few years later, craftsmen dug a second tunnel and built a second tomb, which some believe was used to bury the queen. The third tomb, where Khufu is buried, is called the "King's Tomb."
Easter Island
English: Easter Island, Polynesian: Rapa Nui (meaning big place, Rapa = Place), ? Te-Pito-o-te - Henua (meaning the navel or center of the world). Often mistranslated as Easter Island (Resurrection, especially the resurrection of Jesus). Located at 27°08?37? south latitude , longitude 109°26?10? , 3,500 kilometers from Chile to the east and 1,750 kilometers from Pitcairn Island to the west. It covers an area of ??166 square kilometers and has a population of 2,000 people.
The administrative center is Hanga Roa, which became a national park in 1935 and belongs to the Valparaisa province of Chile. Certified as a World Heritage Site by the United Nations. There are 600 stone statues called "Moai", and the cemetery platform is called "Ahu". They are 3 to 6 meters high, with the tallest reaching 11 meters and weighing 50 tons. The hat weighs 10 tons. Most of them stand in groups, with the largest reaching 15 meters. It was completed between 1000 and 1600 AD. The indigenous people call this island "Land of the Bird Men", and the stone statues look like Caucasian faces. There is no water source or trees on the island. Are the stone statues carved from obsidian, volcanic glass and tuff different from the outside world? E.T., ExtraTerrestrial?
The Curse of the Pharaoh
On March 1, 1994, the world-famous "Eighth Wonder of the World" - Qin Shihuang's Terracotta Warriors and Horses Pit No. 2 officially began to be excavated. This is one of the great archaeological discoveries of this century.
In the No. 2 figurine pit, copper spears, copper crossbows, copper arrowheads, broken swords, etc. were also unearthed. Among them, a batch of bronze swords were also found, with a length of 86 centimeters, and eight inscriptions on the sword body. An edge. Archaeologists used vernier calipers to measure and found that the error of these eight edges was less than a hair. This is true for the 19 bronze swords that have been unearthed. These bronze swords have dense internal structure, bright and smooth blades, fine grinding patterns on the blades, and no interlacing textures. They have been sleeping under the loess for more than 2,000 years. When they were unearthed, they were as bright as new and extremely sharp. After testing, scientific researchers found that there was a 10-micron-thick layer of chromium salt compounds on the surface of the sword. This discovery immediately caused a sensation in the world, because this chromium salt oxidation treatment method is an advanced technology that only appeared in modern times. Germany invented and applied for patents in 1937 and the United States in 1950.
While cleaning the first passage of Pit No. 1, archaeologists found that a bronze sword was bent by a pottery figurine weighing 150 kilograms. The bending degree exceeded 45 degrees. When people After removing the pottery figurines, a surprising miracle occurred: the narrow and thin bronze sword rebounded straight in an instant and recovered naturally. The "morphological memory alloy" dreamed of by contemporary metallurgists actually appeared in ancient tombs more than 2,000 years ago.
In fact, the method of chromium salt oxidation treatment was by no means an invention of the Qin Shihuang era. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Chinese had mastered this advanced technology.
During the Five Hegemons period of the Spring and Autumn Period, King Gou Jian of Yue "suffered hardship" and defeated King Wu Fu Chai in one fell swoop, performing the last scene of the Spring and Autumn Hegemony in history. As the years passed, this thrilling war fell quietly into the long scrolls of history, and the busy descendants almost forgot about it.
However, when an archaeological team was excavating the ancient tombs of the Spring and Autumn Period, they unexpectedly discovered a long sword covered with mud. A line of ancient seal characters on the sword - "The sword used by King Gou Jian of Yue" jumped into people's mind. eye. This major archaeological discovery immediately caused a sensation across the country, but the even more sensational news came from the scientific research report on the ancient sword. What first attracted the attention of researchers was: why did this ancient sword not rust after being buried underground for more than two thousand years? Why is it still so cold and sharp? Through further research, it was found that the reason why the "Yue King Goujian Sword" has been stainless for thousands of years is that the sword body is plated with a layer of metal containing chromium. As we all know, chromium is an extremely corrosion-resistant rare metal. The chromium content in earth rocks is very low, and it is very difficult to extract it. Furthermore, chromium is a high-temperature resistant metal, with a melting point of approximately 4000°C.
The assassination of John F. Kennedy is an eternal mystery
Since President Lincoln was assassinated in 1865, American presidents have been constantly assassinated, and their aura of power has almost become that of some "madmen" "Target in the eyes. However, the background of the Kennedy shooting is particularly confusing. What is puzzling to the American public is that the murderer Lee Harvey Oswald was shot "silenced" under the eyes of federal agents and in front of photographers, while the man who shot and killed Jack Lu Bi died mysteriously not long after.
Revolving around this case, American public opinion has put forward various hypotheses.
Some people believe that this is a coup plot co-planned by the CIA and "hawks" in the military; others believe that the assassination was the work of the "mafia."

In order to find out the truth of the case, the US government set up a special investigation committee to investigate the whole story. However, after several years of investigation, the investigative committee finally concluded that the shooting of Kennedy was Oswald's personal act without any deeper political background.
Once the conclusion was announced, public opinion was in an uproar. Some private organizations have vowed to get to the bottom of the case, but to this day this case is still a matter of public opinion. As time goes by, many of the parties involved have passed away, and the remaining ones are approaching their twilight years. It seems that they will take the answer to their graves.
The gunshots on the streets of Dallas may become an eternal mystery in the history of American politics.
The incident: On the morning of November 22, 1963, US President John F. Kennedy and his wife arrived in Dallas, Texas, and took a convertible car to the city. The high-spirited Kennedys (sitting in the back row) smiled and greeted the welcoming crowd on the roadside. They were completely unaware of the coming of death.
At 1:30 noon, shots were fired as the presidential motorcade passed through an intersection in the city center. Before the president’s bodyguards had time to react, Kennedy had already leaned on his wife, and Governor Connally also Seriously injured.
