Every century has its own secrets and riddles—
Why does everyone have their own? Simply, over time, the answers are on any, even the most difficult and seemingly intractable question. On today, one of such issues over which break heads are the best minds of mankind, Arkaim remains — There is many theories about the city of Arkaim in the Chelyabinsk region. Naturally, it is not certain to know for sure now possible. We once went to Arkaim and I can say that visually little more than a remarkable place, but at the same time many people considered a place of power.
What is reliably known about him is that he was open. scientists in 1987 at the place where it was planned to flood Bolshekaragansky valley in the Chelyabinsk region, to create on its place of the reservoir. By happy coincidence, already, practically, At the final stages of work, the attention of scientists attracted a small a piece of terrain that has no analogues anywhere in the world. In the valley a small ancient settlement was found mottled with boulders, including dozens of dwellings, like semi-dwarfs with foci, cellars and wells. According to scientists, this find dates back to the 18th and 16th centuries. BC e., the period of the Bronze Age in world history.
Scientists have made the maximum of their efforts to keep this terrain from flooding and in 1991 it was declared a protected zone (within the branch of the Ilmensky Reserve). According to G. B. Zdanovich, Arkaim is the clearest example of the unity of primitiveness, indivisibility of the most diverse of its beginnings. It is both a fortress, a temple, a handicraft center, and a residential settlement. On Based on these excavations, archaeologists have compiled a picture of the ancient settlements In their opinion, these were not scattered objects, but integral complex, with a total area of about two tens of thousands square meters with fortifications and developed residential infrastructure, right down to the water pipes, which causes incredible interest in anyone who is more or less interested in history and even so more, engineering communications.
But not only is this progressive “over the years” engineering construction is puzzling. No less interest and plenty conjectures are fraught with the very geometry of this ancient construction of the century. Long I will still guess at the currently unresolved question – why Arch has a circle shape? This is some kind of symbolism that came from non-existence to the present day or sophisticatedly complex structure, not accessible consciousness of modern man.
Another secret of Arkaim is that it is not clear why it was burned and abandoned this settlement. According to some reports, it did not exist. so long.
Unfortunately, there is a problem in further research. cities, as usual because of the Russian bureaucracy. Zone has been declared reserve, and in such areas can not be excavated and the rest similar activity, so now the city of Arkaim is just open-air museum. Perhaps it was done on purpose, so as not to reveal to us this milestone of history. After all, then you have to explain why, according to historical textbooks of the settlement in Russia began to emerge only 1000 years ago, and here is the city to which about 4 thousand years.
One can only hope that someday we will learn the secret Arkaim, and for example, the secret of the settlement of Sunghir near Vladimir, on the place of which is currently the dump, and the estimated age about 25 thousand years.
Arkaim. The site is underground.
