There
are numerous archaeological discoveries that science cannot understand , we have come across
countless findings that have ended up as being just that, findings that have
caught the attention of researchers, but have yet to be accurately explained.
In
this case we have a screw that according to researchers is 300 million years
old, and like many awkward discoveries in the past, it was found in
Russia in the ‘90s.
Russian
scientists found it by chance actually, as they were performing analysis after
the fall of a meteorite in the Kaluga region when they came across a mysterious
object that resembled a modern day screw. Scientists were baffled and did not
know what to think of it. Did it come from space? Is this screw proof of
ancient civilizations that inhabited Earth millions of years ago? What is it?
The
fossil surrounding the screw has around 2 cm long. It was discovered in a
scientific expedition that was performed by a group called the Kosmopoisk
group, which is a scientific research group responsible for conducting UFO
related research, cryptozoological research and paranormal science. Initially
they suited up and went to search for the remains of the meteorite that
impacted the Kaluga region in Russia. Suddenly, they came across the screw, and
incredibly, after paleontological analysis, it turned out that the age of the
"stone" was somewhere between 300 and 320 million years.
The
artifact was analyzed using X-Ray technology, which provided researchers with
another shock; it turned out that another screw was present inside it. Many
scientists have tried explaining the origin and details of the
"screw", some have proposed that it could be the remains of a
Crinoids (Marine animals that make up the class Crinoidea of the echinoderms)
This theory was discarded due to the fact that the screw is much larger than
the average size of these animals.
The
theories as to what this object is are pillage up. Skeptics are having a field
day and they love to debunk discoveries like this one, offering a much simpler
answer, suggesting that its nothing, probably the remains of an old factory,
vehicle, or anything else that can make you, the reader look elsewhere for
answers, without paying much attention to details such as the age, and region
where it was found.
So
what is it? A screw that proves that extraterrestrial life was present on Earth
millions of years ago? Is this screw the remains of an extraterrestrial
vehicle? Or is there a possibility that it might just be evidence of ancient
civilizations in the past that possessed very advanced technology? All of these
options are still possibilities as we still do not know what this mysterious
artifact really is.
How
is it possible that a screw could have survived a time lapse of 300 million
years? What is its metallic composition? These are several of the questions
that still need to be answered in order to get a full picture of what this
object really is.
In
the meantime, let us know what you think this one might actually be.
Is
this a 300 million-year-old screw or just a fossilized sea creature?

A Russian
research team known as the Kosmopoisk Group , which investigates UFOs and paranormal
activity, claims to have found a one-inch screw embedded inside a rock that is
300 million years old. They say the screw is the remains of an ancient form of
technology that proves extra-terrestrials visited Earth millions of years ago.
However, scientists say the ‘screw’ is nothing more than a fossilized sea
creature called a Crinoid.
The Russian
team were investigating the remains of a meteorite in the Kaluga region of
Russia in the 1990s, when they came across the strange object. A
paleontological analysis was carried out, which revealed the stone was formed
between 300 and 320 million years ago. The team also claim that an x-ray
of the stone shows that another screw is present inside it. However, they have
not allowed international experts to examine the object, nor have they revealed
what the screw is made of.
Since the
initial finding, much debate has surrounded the discovery, with scientists
scoffing at the suggestion that it reflects an ancient screw and suggesting
there is a much less exciting explanation.

The Mail Online reports that scientists who have examined
photographic evidence of the object say that there is a more earthly answer to
the phenomenon – the ‘screw’ is actually the fossilized remains of an ancient
sea creature known as a crinoid.
Crinoids are
a species of marine animal that are believed to have evolved around 350 million
years ago. They are characterized by a mouth on the top surface that is
surrounded by feeding arms. Today, there are around 600 crinoid species,
but they were much more abundant and diverse in the past.

Over the
years, geologists have found countless fossils representing whole crinoids or
their segments, some of which do resemble screws. Scientists have suggested
that the screw-like shape seen in fossil samples may be the reversed-shape of
the creature, which dissolved while the rock was shaped around it.

“It is
thought that the fossilised creature in the mysterious rock is a form of ‘sea
lily’ – a type of crinoid that grew a stalk when it became an adult, to tether
itself to the seabed,” write the Mail Online. “However, some say that the
stalks of crinoids were typically much smaller than the ‘screw’, with slightly
different markings, and have discarded the theory.”
Nigel
Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual told Mail Online: “Lots of
out-of-place artefacts have been reported, such as nails or even tools embedded
in ancient stone. Some of these reports are…misinterpretations of natural
formations.”
“It would be
great to think we could find such ancient evidence of a spaceship visiting us
so long ago, but we have to consider whether extra-terrestrial spacecraft
builders would use screws in the construction of their craft,” he added. “It
also seems that this story is probably a hoax that is being spread by the
internet, and reflects our desire to believe that extra-terrestrials have visited
us in the past and are still visiting us today in what we now call UFOs.”
For now, the
controversy surrounding the object remains very much alive, and unless the
Kosmopoisk Group releases detailed information regarding the material of the
‘screw’, it is unlikely that consensus will be reached any time soon.

Just saying if it is that old it could of been from a fossil with a strange shape and the rock formed around the fossil which formed that shape not like spiral and screw shapes aren't already found in nature so that would be a possible explanation
