The mystery of the crystal skull

There is a genuine American legend that says the 13 human skulls made of crystal that can talk and sing. According to legend, the crystal skull contains answers to some mysteries of the world and life. Legend also says that one day, when mankind experienced a major crisis, then the 13 skulls will be discovered again and again collected to provide knowledge and information vital to humanity.

When I first heard the legend above, we imagine a movie, Indiana Jones, The kingdom of the crystal skull . But only few know that the film is based on a real legend. Real because the real in Central America has found a human skull made ​​of crystal.

Crystal skull first discovered in the ruins cityMaya and buried deep inside the dense forest. In 1924, British explorer, Frederick Mitchell-Hedges and his colleagues are feeling adventurous, try to find the remains ofcityAtlantis legend in Belize, Central America. One day, when they're walking through thick forest, they found a mound of rocks covered with dense grass and bushes. The rest is history. The group foundcity Lubaantun long lost, which in Mayan language meanscitya falling stone.

During excavations at the site, Mitchell-Hedges, adopted daughter named Anna said that she had found a skull made ​​of crystal buried under the altar in one of the ruins of a pyramid-shaped temple. Told, when the skull was found, the Mayans workers immediately filled with a jump of joy. They immediately put the skull on the altar, performing the ceremony and dancing around it.Apparently, an ancient and supernatural forces are back into the lives of these people. The skull is entirely made ​​of transparent crystal. The size is just like a human skull size and very accurate in their anatomy as indicated by a separate jaw bone.

Anna Mitchell Hedges who discovered the skull died in 2007 at the age of 100 years. He had kept the skull in his life. Anna believes that the skull has been giving him strength and health until he was 100 years old. Some people who have spent time with the skull was also admitted to having some strange experiences, like hearing a soft voice, like a hum out of the skull. And sometimes they could see flashes of images of the past and the future is reflected from the skull.

Surprisingly, Anna Mitchell Hedges crystal skull, not only crystal skull that was found.Since the discovery, several other skulls had been found - as predicted by the ancient legend. Currently there are at least six other skeletons are stored in museums world-renowned.

All skulls are until now still unknown origin. Most owners believe that the skull came from Central America, whether that of the Mayans, Aztecs or even interest from the period before the Mayans are a mysterious tribe of Atlantis.

Scientific Perspective

Dr Jane Walsh is a leading specialist in Mesoamerican world that works for the Smithsonian Institute. And now, he is the owner of one of the crystal skull.Dr Walsh, like most other archaeologists believe that the crystal skull was a clever ploy, and not the relics of ancient peoples. He theorized that the skull was probably made in the 19th century to satisfy the demand for ancient antiques. But Dr. Walsh did not have evidence to support his theory.

Dr. Walsh tried to conduct further studies on the skull to determine its origin. One of the obstacles it faces is not a carbon crystal, because it is impossible to track the age of the skull with carbon method. One way is left is to look at crystal surfaces and try to find traces of the equipment used to make crystals. If found traces of hand tools, then chances are the skull is derived from an ancient civilization. And if found traces of mechanical equipment, the possibility of a more modern age of the skull, which means that can come of ageColumbusuntil the 20th century.

Previously, in the 1970's Anna Mitchell Hedges skull was also handed to the team from Hewlett Packard to be investigated. Hewlett Packard as an expert in the field of computers and electronic equipment of course also an expert in the field of crystal.

What was discovered by a team from Hewlett Packard is very shocking. They found that the crystal skull is the basic ingredient is the same as used in the electronics industry today, the material is called piezo electric silicon dioxide , which is widely used because of its ability to store data. Modern microprocessors are made ​​of this material.

By using the polarization of light, another surprising finding was revealed. Shell above the head was ever attached to the structure of a hard crystalline rocks. They were really surprised by this discovery. Because the basic ingredients of this skull is the second hardest rock in the world after diamond. There is no equipment capable to break the crystals. If the engine mechanic who was forced to use to sculpt the skull, the crystal is bound to disintegrate into small fragments. Hewlett Packard team finally concluded that the skull was made by hand.

But this conclusion leads to another conclusion is more surprising. According to the calculations of scientists, if the skull was made by hand, it takes time for hundreds of years to complete the crystal structure of a skull considering extraordinary hard.Hewlett Packard estimate the time required is 300 years old.To scientists then put the skull under the microscope, trying to figure out a tool used to create it. And they could not find any traces of both ancient and modern equipment. In this regard, a scientist said "This skull should not exist."

Scientific research does not stop there. In 1996,British Museumworking with Dr. Walsh and the Smithsonian examine all existing crystal skulls by taking him to the British Museum Research Laboratory. Six skulls began to be examined in April 1996, and for unknown reasons,British Museumnever want to publish the results.

Indigenous perspective

For scientists, the skull may be an unsolved mystery. But for native tribes in America, the skull was not a mystery. From the results of interviews with tribal elders in America, revealed an ancient wisdom.According to them, a Skull will not be understood by placing it under a microscope.The skull was intended to bring fundamental challenge to the rational mind and the way we view the world.

For the shaman or shaman of the tribes in Central America, the skull is a medium or a door to another dimension of spirit. Many of them said that the skull was opened the door to a parallel world that exists, another dimension of this world. They also believe that the spirit of man can walk and get into that world through crystal skull. In addition, the skull can also be used to guide us to a higher level of our consciousness, something we had long forgotten.

A Mayan elder named Hunbatz Men once said that the crystal skulls have been used in religious ceremonies around the world. He believes that there is a crystal skull at religious sites around the world, including Stonehenge in England.According Hunbatz Men, it's time to reunite the 13th skull to save humanity.
