Many mysteries are unsolved from ancient times and we still do not have a perfect answer for these mysteries.we have selected top 5 mysteries which are still unsolved.
The Mystery of Easter Island
Some believe that people from somewhere else arrived at the island and constructed the shines and statues, but some feel that they were the work of disturbed minds, elephants or extra-terrestrials were responsible.
Nobody knows that who made these statues? and how people reach on such island to make a piece of art. Easter Island holds 887 statues that would take a lifetime to build by hand.
Egypt's Great Pyramid at Giza
It was built as a tomb for the Pharaoh Khufu and was completed in c.2580 BC. Beside this, the largest of the pyramids, there are smaller ones for Khufu’s son and grandson as well as their various queens. It is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
Archaeologists estimate that is may have taken 100,000 men over a period of twenty years to build the Great Pyramid. It was made from more than two million stone blocks and ancient workers assembled them using basic ramps, rollers and levers to affix them together. Originally, the Great Pyramid was covered by casing stones that formed a smooth outer surface; what is seen today is the underlying core structure.
Camelot
The oldest known documents about King Arthur contain no information about Camelot. The place isn't mentioned at all until the twelfth century, when a French poet named Chretien de Troyes mentioned it by name in one of his poems about Lancelot.
Camelot is a castle and court associated with the legendary King Arthur. The stories locate it somewhere in Britain and sometimes associate it with real cities, though more usually its precise location is not revealed.
The King Arthur legends have fascinated the world for several centuries, yet nobody knows who he really was or where he was really from. We know that according to many legends, he made Camelot his home, but where, exactly was Camelot? Was it even a real place.
Shroud Of Turin
Shroud of Turin is a cloth made of linen cloth and bears an image of a man, who appears to be physically traumatized to death in a manner similar to crucifixion.
It is kept in the royal chapel of the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist in Turin, northern Italy. The image on the shroud is much clearer in black-and-white negative than in its natural sepia color.
Lost City of Atlantis
Some say it’s a Lost city while others say it’s an entire continent. Some don’t believe that Atlantis even existed at all. Whatever Atlantis was or might have been, we may never know.
According to Plato, Atlantis was a naval power lying "in front of the Pillars of Hercules" that conquered many parts of Western Europe and Africa9,000 years before the time of Solon, or approximately 9600 BC. After a failed attempt to invade Athens, Atlantis sank into the ocean "in a single day and night of misfortune".
