The crystal skull that has been found has several listed names.

■ British scientists have confirmed that it is a fake. The Aztecs, the original inhabitants of Mexico, carved human skulls with stones, bones, wood and other materials, which were called "the head of death". Some are carved with crystals, which are exaggerated and abstract in shape, consistent in style and generally small. For example, the British Museum has two small skulls identified as "ancient Mexico". The small one is carved with talc, and the large one is carved with crystal, and the height is only 1.25 inch. Both are perforated, probably used as rosaries or amulets. A museum in Paris also has a crystal skull, which is about half the size of a real skull. French experts believe that it was made by Aztecs in 14 or 15 century. But this is not a mysterious phenomenon, nor is it a crystal skull as advocated by the "new age religion". The crystal skull in their mind is about the same size as the real skull, realistic and beautiful. It is said that it is sacred to the Mayans and has mysterious power. ■ The mysterious legend about the crystal skull has an ancient legend among American Indians: in ancient times, there were 13 talking and singing crystal skulls. These crystal skulls contain information about the origin and death of human beings, which can help us solve the mystery of life in the universe. According to legend, people must find all the skulls before 20 12 12 2 1. That day was the end of the Mayan calendar that had been circulating for 5 126 years. Unless 13 skulls are gathered together and put in the right position, the earth will fly away from the axis. Only in this way can the supernatural power of the skull save the earth. The mystery of the crystal skull Scientists compared the crystal skull with the real human skull, and found that all the parameters are similar to the real human skull except that the eye characteristics are slightly within the normal range of human beings. As we know, modern optics came into being in the17th century, and it was not until the rise of anatomy in the18th century that human beings realized their own bone structure accurately. This crystal skull is carved on the basis of fully understanding the human skeleton structure and optical principle. How did the Mayans master these profound anatomical and optical knowledge more than 1000 years ago? It is said that the crystal skull has hypnotic function. If you stare at the crystal skull closely, people will feel sleepy in a short time. It is said that this skull was used by Maya to hypnotize patients during surgery. In addition, crystal is one of the hardest materials in the world, so it can't be processed with tools made of copper, iron and stone. /kloc-what tools did the Mayans use more than 0/000 years ago? In addition, although this pure and transparent crystal has high hardness, its texture is brittle and fragile. Scientists infer that if you want to make it look like thousands of years ago, you can only slowly polish it from a large crystal stone with very fine sand and water, and the producer will polish it for 300 years in 24 hours. Complete such a masterpiece. [Edit this paragraph] The crystal skull that has been excavated Although people have long heard of various incomprehensible achievements of Mayan culture, this crystal skull discovered in the Mayan temple in Honduras, Central America in 1927 is still shocking. This skull is carved from crystal, with a height of 12.7 cm and a weight of 5.2 kg. It is as big as a real person's head and is carved according to a woman's head. It has a history of more than 1000 years. Experts have studied the surface and internal structure of the skull and confirmed that it has a very long history and is indeed a cultural relic left over from the Mayan era. [Edit this paragraph] The first appearance of the crystal skull/kloc-European explorers in the 0/9th century believed this legend about the crystal skull, although no one had ever found those legendary crystal skulls. Until 1927, Anna, a British girl, finally made an amazing discovery on her birthday. Anna's adoptive father, Michelle Haggis, is an English explorer who is fascinated by Mayan civilization. 1924, Michelle organized an expedition from Liverpool, England, accompanied by his beloved adopted daughter Anna, and arrived in Central America along the waterway. With the help of local Mayans, the expedition discovered an ancient Mayan city site. Anna, 17 years old, is also excited about everything in front of her. She climbed carefully to the top of the pyramid, the highest point of the castle, and saw the beautiful scenery of the tropical jungle. Anna was enjoying the scenery when she suddenly found something shining deep in the crack of the pyramid. She immediately told her adoptive father that Michelle took all the members of the expedition to the top of the pyramid and finally dug a hole that could accommodate a villain. Anna climbed into the bottom of the cave alone. The treasure Anna found was the upper part of a transparent crystal skull. Michelle ordered the team to keep digging. Three months later, they found the lower part of the crystal skull 25 feet away. Together, the two skulls are exactly the size of a real skull. As usual, Michelle dedicated the crystal skull to the leader of the local residents. When Michelle's expedition was about to return to England, the local leaders presented Michelle with the crystal skull in return for the help of the expedition in providing them with medicine and food. Later, people called this skull "Michelle Haggis Crystal Skull". Michelle vividly described this point in The Mystery of the Crystal Skull: "After Anna came out of the cave, the sun was still shining. She dusted off the baby and looked at him in surprise. I have never seen anything so beautiful. This is really a rare treasure-a skull the size of a real human skull. The only difference between it and a real human skull is that it is almost completely transparent. It turned out to be a real crystal skull! You can tell at a glance that it is carved from a whole piece of crystal. Anna took it under the lamp, and the light reflected by it became confusing and extremely bright. Only high-purity crystals can achieve this effect. Strangely, it can still be intact after so many years! " Looking at the crystal skull, the sunlight shining on it was reflected into a dazzling beam, and several detection team members immediately stared at the skull as if they were hypnotized. Anna's father took the skull from her hand and held it up for everyone to see. Everyone is ecstatic at the moment. The Maya who came to help laughed and cried after reading it. Anna recalled. At that time, everyone was possessed, as if an ancient and powerful force had been resurrected in everyone present. Anna said it was the greatest moment in her long life. "Michelle Haggis crystal skull [edit this paragraph] The controversy surrounding the crystal skull was carefully investigated by two archaeologists, who were also private detectives for two years. The earliest documentary record of Anna's skull discovery is1an anthropological book named Man in Britain in the 1930s. At that time, the owner sold the skull to Michelle's father for 400 pounds around 1945. Before that, there was an auction, which was also held at Sotheby's in England. At that time, the British Museum offered 360 pounds, but the crystal skull holder at that time thought the price was too low, so he bought it himself. Today, the British Museum still has the auction documents, which further confirms that what the crystal skull holder said today is completely out of thin air. The crystal skull is not the product of Mayan culture at all, let alone unearthed from the Mayan temple. Its origin may only be. The following is an extension of the statement made by Michelle, the current crystal skull holder and provider (Anna). She was asked three times when she got the crystal skull. She said it was 65438+1930s, 1928 and 1924 respectively, and among the fans of the crystal skull, it became 1927, the first three times. Finally, this book published by 1995 said that it was excavated by itself. [Edit this paragraph] The guess about the crystal skull is that it is no longer a gift from higher civilizations outside the earth, nor was it made by the ancient Mayans themselves. It is not that the ancient Mayans could not make anatomically accurate skulls. They are not ignorant farmers, but experts in mathematics, astronomy and calendar. Their skills can rival or even surpass modern technology. But we have no conclusive evidence that the ancient Mayans really had crystal skulls. There is some evidence that the ancient Mayans may have made crystal skulls, but there is also some evidence that Aztecs and Indians in central and plateau Mexico later made crystal skulls. These ancient people were good at carving beautiful objects on crystals, and they also used the image of skulls very frequently. [Edit this paragraph] The legend of the crystal skull is false. High-tech shattered the myth that this crystal skull is fake! Scientists use the flexible resin used by dentists to make dental molds to make impressions of crystal skulls. From above, we can see that there are slight rotational scratches on the eyes, teeth and skull. Obviously, this crystal sculpture was cut and polished with a wheel tool. Further research by Jane Walsh, archivist of Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC, found that this crystal skull was probably the "masterpiece" of Eugene Bo Ban, who specialized in collecting cultural relics before Columbus discovered America in the19th century. There are indications that he has sold at least two crystal skulls claiming to be antiques. According to the documents, it was Bo Ban who got the crystal skull. Later, it was sold to the British Museum by Tiffany Jewelry Company of new york as 1897. It was also Bo Ban who sold a similar crystal skull to a collector. Later, the collector donated it to a museum in Paris and it has been preserved until now. Colin McEwan of the British Museum said that this crystal skull, which has been on display since last Christmas, has been the theme of some special ceremonies for many years. Many people believe that it has extraordinary life and worship it, and the rumors about it are getting more and more fantastic. Interestingly, there are about a dozen large crystal skulls in the world at present. All but three of them are in the hands of private collectors. People who firmly believe in the above legends have always accused the British Museum of deliberately keeping the skull out of public view, or "imprisoning" the cosmic energy contained in it. However, now British scientists have confirmed that this skull is fake, but many people still think that this is a trick played by scientists. Professor Freestone, former head of scientific research at the British Museum, also admitted that the latest findings of scientists could not convince those who believed that skulls were magical. He said: "Just think about the shroud of Turin, and you will understand that even with more evidence, some superstitious people can't be convinced. "
