Art of Time Independent

I am using this term because we still have no idea why these pieces of art exist in the time they're not supposed to exist. Term from The naturalist Ivan T Anderson "Out of Place Artifacts - Oopart" is likely more familiar to describe these pieces of art.

These pieces of arts and technologies that i will mention below still leave us the mysteries, what are the true purpose of it, how they created and why they were left in where they found....

1. The Klerksdorp Spheres - Out of Time Ball Bearing

Klerksdorp Spheres - formed 2.8 billion years ago

Klerksdorp Spheres - named before where they found are small objects those widely in shape from either approximate or flattened spheres to well-defined discs and often are intergrown,  some are etched with three parallel grooves running around the equator with the diameter range from 3 cm to 5 cm. The material of these spheres consist of either hematite (Fe2O3) or wollastonite (CaSiO3) mixed with minor amounts of hematite and goethite (FeOOH). Simply say they are metals.

Observations by indicated that many of the Klerksdorp "Spheres" found in unaltered pyrophyllite mining consist of pyrite (FeS2) - all naturally occurring minerals, and unlikely to be used in a manufacturing process. And what is remarkable is, that, this is not a usual mineral deposit they mined. This is a 3-billion-year-old pyrophyllite deposits mined by Wonderstone Ltd., near Ottosdal, South Africa. At this time in earth's history, only simple forms of algae were thought to exist !!!.

By the looks, and counting the artifacts found (over 150 spheres), we can compare it to our technology - the steel ball for ball bearing.

Steel Ball  Bearing - Modern Time (first patented 1794)

So, if the technology to produce steel ball appear in 18th century, how  come similar balls - the klerksdorp spheres- buried in a 2.8 billion years old deposit ?. Who put them there ?

2. Abydos Carving - Out of Time Vehicle Designs

Carving at Abydos Temple

This strange hierogliph is carved at the ceiling an ancient temple in ancient city complex of Abydos, a few hundred miles south of Cairo. It was first examined in 1848 by an archaeological expedition but none of that time can explain the meaning of these hierogliph. Finally, hierogliph is considered only as an engraving strange objects unknown. 

Decades later, these hierogliph surfaced again, but, this time a few people recognize the carving hierogliph as helicopters, planes, tank and submarines -t he objects those are created in the 20th century.

This Hierogliph was found in a temple founded by Pharaoh Seti I about 3,000 years ago, not in the pyramid as some people thought. The question now is, how carving a modern transport machinery could exist in the temple 3,000 years old? 

3. Roman Dodecahedron - Mysterious Tools 

Roman Dodecahedron

This object is a small hollow object made of bronze or stone, with a dodecahedral shape: twelve flat pentagonal faces, each having a circular hole in the middle which connects to the hollowed-out center. Roman dodecahedron date from the 2nd or 3rd centuries AD.

About a hundred of these dodecahedra have been found from Wales to Hungary and to the east of Italy, with most found in Germany and France. Ranging from 4cm to 11cm in size, they also vary in terms of textures. Most of them are made of bronze but some also seem to be made of stone.

Even, so many of it had been found, still no satisfying answer had accepted about what is the function of this tool. Absolutely this is not a toy, because they couldn't produce this kind of toy easily in mass production. I believe, not only the function it self leaving the mystery, the mass production it self also the mystery. Did roman had had fabric to produce bronze plate, welding technology, or maybe bronze casting equipment at that time??

4. Ancient Hoist - Hoisting a Huge, Super Heavy Objects


Some architectural structure are so massive and involving some super weight elements. Yes, if the structure is built for one and only, the first and also the last, there is no need to build some tools to make it easy to build it. But, if the structure build in numbers...  I cannot believe that  there were no tools to make it easier to build them. If this happened, this would be against the development of human civilization and technology theory .


These are some ancient to middle age artifact that had to had used heavy duty hoisting tools.


Great pyramids of Giza

The pyramids of Giza - 5000 years ago

Built about 5,000 years ago, the three large Pyramids of Giza are the most recognizable Egypt attractions. In 2,589 BC, the first pyramid of the Giza complex—the pyramid of King Khufu or Cheops—was started. This was not the first pyramid built in Egypt (and these three pyramids are not the only pyramids in Egypt), but it is the largest and most well known. Soon after its construction, Khufu’s son and grandson built the other two pyramids, completing what visitors commonly recognize as the Pyramids of Giza. The three pyramids were built during the 4th dynasty of Egypt. They pyramids are those of Khufu (Cheops), Khafre (Chephren), and Menkure (Mycerinus). 


The Great Pyramid was originally 481 feet, five inches tall (146.7 meters) and measured 755 feet (230 meters) along its sides. It incorporates about 2.3 million stone blocks, weighing an average of 2.5 to 15 tons each. 

Stone blocks of Giza Pyramid - 2.3 million blocks, 2.5 - 15 Tonnes each

Sacsayhuaman - Peru

Sacsayhuaman Fortress - 1200 AD

Originally settled around 1100 AD by the pre-Incan Kilke culture, Sacsayhuaman was said to be a fortress. The 'fortress' is composed of three large terraced walls. The longest of the three Sacsayhuamán walls is about 400 meters long and 6 meters tall. This archaeological park is located just outside of Cuzco at a height of 3.555 m (11,663 ft) surrounding an area of 3.000 hectares. 

About 6,000 cubic meters volume of stone had gone into the construction work. Many stones weigh over 50 tons and the biggest one has over 120 tons.

Stone blocks of Sacsayhuaman - some of them weight 50 - 120 tonnes

I leave it to you to imagine what kind of hoisting tools they were using. But to compare to our modern age, this is the sample of hoisting tools we use today

Today technology for hoisting material - The gantry crane and tower crane
