The world's oldest Ural Mountains keep many secrets of the ancient history of our Earth and civilizations that preceded today's. And only recently the Urals began to reveal their secrets to us. The morning of Svarog is flaring up brighter and brighter, little by little highlighting the amazing life of our ancestors …

Since the end of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st century, on the vast territory of the Urals, research groups, consisting of both scientists and local lore enthusiasts, began to discover ancient megalithic buildings, which allow us to talk about a completely new page not only in the history of our country, but and the whole world. All types of megalithic structures known to science can be found here. These are menhirs or standing stones, dolmens - stone tables and tombs, cromlechs - arched stone structures and geoglyphs, and the remains of stone cities and amphitheaters hidden by earth and vegetation, and giant walls and pyramids.

So, in the Sverdlovsk region alone, in the last 8 years alone, 350 dolmens and other megalithic monuments have been discovered and described. The beginning of this grandiose work was laid in 1958 by Anatoly Arkhipovich Bodrykh, a local historian from the small town of Verkhnyaya Pyshma, who had been sketching unusual buildings scattered in the taiga for several decades.

He told scientists about them, but the latter did not react in any way to his stories. And only at the beginning of this century, the archaeologists of Yekaterinburg showed interest in the amazing objects and began to seriously study them. It was found that dolmens are located from north to south, along the meridian, in a strip about 69 km long. Their appearance dates back to the first half of the 3rd millennium BC. To our great regret, not a single scientist has yet made a map of the megalithic objects of the Urals and Siberia. We hope that everything is still ahead.

Another sensation was the discovery in 2007 of the oldest geoglyph on the planet - the image of a huge elk near Lake Zyuratkul in the Chelyabinsk region. The elk is 275 meters long (about two football fields). Its age is 8 thousand years! It turned out to be much older than the world famous geoglyphs of the Nazca desert (Peru), the oldest of which, according to scientists, is no more than 2500 years old. In addition, an amateur local historian, historian Alexander Shestakov, who discovered this miracle, also discovered a city at the bottom of a lake of about the same age. According to his estimates, about 100 thousand people lived in the city. According to him, the village was about 2 kilometers long and 300 meters wide and consisted of three rows.

It is noteworthy that comparatively not far from this place there is another sensational find - a landing site for the whiteman, which was mentioned by academician Nikolai Levashov in his book "The Tale of the Clear Falcon": seven thousand four hundred and forty-odd square kilometers! On this square the cities of Ufa, Blagoveshchensk, Sterlitamak, Salavat and ever smaller towns and villages between them are quietly located!.."

Another antiquity hidden "in the depths of Siberian ores", in the literal sense of the word, is the so-called Shigir idol - a huge statue made of a monolithic larch trunk with crossed legs, as if walking (the impression is that the idol is walking), and speckled with signs. It was dug up by gold miners at the end of the 19th century, when alluvial gold deposits were discovered on the Shigir peat bog to the northwest of Yekaterinburg.

The idol reached 5.3 meters in height. Unfortunately, its lower part, 193 cm long, has not reached our days and can only be judged by the drawing of the early 20th century by archaeologist V. Ya. Tolmachev. On the idol, 7 masks were revealed - one on top, voluminous, and three each on the front and back sides. They all crown a separate figure and the figures are all different. The idol is covered with a geometric ornament and signs, which scientists are not yet able to read or comprehend, and are limited to guesses, therefore there are many versions of what this idol is. One of the interesting versions was expressed by Professor Valery Chudinov. Using his original method of reading the inscriptions, he read some of the inscriptions on the idol and concluded that before us is none other than the goddess of death Mara. The word "Mara" is read in several places, and on the left cheek of the idol is written "the god of the afterlife." Another interesting inscription “Mare has countless rati warriors”.

According to the data of radiocarbon analysis, the age of the idol is 9, 5 thousand years, which means that it is much older than the Egyptian pyramids, the civilizations of the Mayans, Incas, Babylon, Greece and Rome and other most ancient antiquities of any other peoples of the planet, attributing to themselves an ancient origin. Not to mention those who, with a blue eye, claim that God created the world 7510 years ago. Let's not forget that, according to orthodox scholars, writing in Eurasia emerged more than 3 millennia later.

The conclusion from all this is simple. At least 9, 5 thousand years ago, when the civilizations of the aforementioned peoples were not even in the project, there was a developed civilization with a fairly high level of culture on the territory of the Urals, who owned the tools and technologies for processing natural materials, and the people of this civilization spoke Russian!

In addition, megalithic structures have been preserved in the Urals, which were created long before that time. Traces of this kind of structures are scattered throughout the world. In most places they have been preserved in the form of separate sections of ancient megalithic walls and buildings of giant blocks, some were subsequently built on with new, less impressive structures over the course of centuries and millennia. The most monumental of them are: Baalbek, structures on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem and the Nimrod fortress in Israel on the border with Lebanon and Syria, megaliths off the western coast of Cuba at a depth of about 700 meters, where streets, towers, pyramids, underwater megaliths about. Yonaguni (Japan), an underwater pyramid at the bottom of Lake Fuxian in the southwestern province of Yun Nan (China), 19 m high and 90 m long at the base.

Many of the most famous megalithic structures are located in South America: Tiahuanaco, Saxauman, Ollantaytambo, Machu Picchu. Professor Arthur Poznansky, who studied Tiahuanaco for 40 years, and the German cosmologist Edmund Kiss found that they were built about 17 thousand years ago. There are also less known and studied, but no less interesting ones. These are the ruins of the city of Chavin de Huantar, lying at an altitude of 3500 m in the Peruvian Andes, Tambo-Machai - the sacred springs of the Incas and the "quarry" of Inkamisana near the Inca capital of Ollantaytambo. If the purpose of the first three megalithic complexes does not seem to be in doubt, then the next one is the subject of controversy and conjecture. Not far from the Chilean city of San Clemente, there is a section of horizontal masonry called "stone floor" (El Enladrillado in Spanish). It is made of huge boulders that fit tightly enough to each other. Some scholars believe that the ancients planned to establish a settlement here, but for some reason abandoned this soon after the start of construction. There are also versions that El Enladriado was created by nature itself. The wind, they say, blew like that. Others believe that this is a site built by aliens for the landing of UFOs.

Another "natural" complex is located on the Markaguasi plateau in Peru at an altitude of about 4,000 m. The rocks on it were processed by human hands and turned into giant statues that become visible only under certain lighting conditions. Then you can see giant sculptures of the heads of people with Caucasian and Negroid features, as well as images of monkeys, turtles, condors, ocean fish, cows, horses, elephants, lions and camels. The ancient age of these images is confirmed by the fact that some animals never lived at such an altitude, while others disappeared from the American continent thousands of years before the Europeans arrived there. Let's remember that we saw such megalithic sculptures in the "Park of Dragons" in Primorye.

These structures can be considered "pre-flood", that is, created before the nuclear war of Antlani with the mother empire more than 13 thousand years ago, which caused a terrible catastrophe that destroyed almost the entire infrastructure of earthly civilization and threw it to the level of the Stone Age. By the way, according to the legends of the Indians living near the ruins of Tiahuanaco, the city was built before a terrible catastrophe called Chamak Pacha or the Age of Darkness. Tectonic plates began to move, a giant wave circled the Earth several times, the climate changed dramatically. Earthquakes shook the planet, billions of tons of volcanic ash were thrown into the atmosphere. Many megalithic structures were submerged, and multi-ton megalithic blocks were scattered like cubes over great distances or split like matches.

Here is how it is described in the "Slavic-Aryan Vedas" (Santii Vedas of Perun, First Circle, Santia 6):

3. (83). The great night will envelop Midgard-Earth …

and the Heavenly Fire will destroy many parts of the earth …

Where beautiful gardens bloomed, the Great Deserts will stretch …

Instead of the life of a spawning land

the seas will rustle, and where

the waves of the seas splashed, high mountains covered with eternal snow …

The megalithic cities that have survived on earth have been desolate for millennia. Some have remained abandoned to this day. There are especially many of them on the territory of Russia, in Siberia. Let's talk about them.

Stone town in the Perm region

In the Middle Urals, on the southern summit of the 19-kilometer Rudyansky Spoi ridge, in the Gremyachinsky urban district, not far from the villages of Shumikhinsky and Usva, there is Kamenny Gorod. The name was coined by tourists. The locals do not use this name. Residents of the nearby villages of Shumikhinsky and Yubileiny call this place differently. They call it the Turtles - for the amazing resemblance of the two tallest rocks with turtles. The old residents of the village of Usva, the most ancient settlement of these places, knew another name for this place - the Devil's Gorodishche.

The name "Devil's Settlement" is very widespread not only in the Urals. In Rusi, this was the name given to heaps of rocks and stones that only the devil could create. But tourists called this place "Stone City", although the purpose of this place could be anything. They also divided it into the Big City, where the stone turtles are located, and the Small, highlighted avenues and streets there, and found the central square. Turtles were also christened Big and Small, and the latter looks more like a bird, for which it received a second name from tourists - the Feathered Guardian.

According to scientists, Kamenny Gorod is the mouth of a river that flowed into the Perm Sea millions of years ago, this explains beautifully and evenly, at right angles, the cut stones, their neat laying and perpendicular to each other “channels” “mouths”, as well as “plasticine masonry.

People, as for any beautiful corner of nature, have come up with their own legend. It says that there was a beautiful city in these places and exceptionally beautiful people lived in it in beautiful houses. The head of the settlement had a blind daughter, and so that the girl could see the beauty, the father turned to the sorcerer. He returned his sight, but for the service he turned the beautiful city to stone. And now only the wind is walking among the stone houses.

We are unlikely to ever find out the purpose of these tunnels of clearly artificial origin. Perhaps they were just the internal elements of some truly huge structure, the purpose of which can only be guessed at. Or maybe it was a giant "bomb shelter" or "ark". Perhaps our ancestors were preparing for a nuclear war. Alas, we cannot say anything about this. In terms of our contemporary reality, we simply cannot even imagine not only how they did it, but why they did it, and also why they did it this way and not otherwise.

Devil's settlement in Yekaterinburg

At a distance of 300 kilometers from Perm in a straight line, 25 km from Yekaterinburg, there is another stone city or the so-called "Devil's Settlement". It is located 6 kilometers from the village of Iset and is a mountain of the same name and an impressive granite ridge at its top. The mountain is 347 meters above sea level, and the ridge is the last 20 meters.

This "ridge" or wall, stretching from the south-east to the north-west, consists of 10 towers of various heights and massiveness, which are separated from each other by vertical crevices of different lengths and widths. The towers rest on a high pedestal made of granite slabs. From the north it is impregnable and steep, from the south it is flatter, made of giant boulder steps, along which one can easily climb the wall.

The name of this place is quite understandable. It looks, let's say, too unnatural, as if it was built by evil spirits. There is also a legend according to which the devil built some kind of structure here, but then for some reason got angry and scattered everything, only the wall remained. In the recent past, this place was notorious among Christians. Firstly, it was quite difficult to find it, despite the high stone towers. And only when a person came close enough to this place, a stone wall, as it were, suddenly appeared among a dense forest "out of nowhere." Secondly, modern paranormal researchers believe that this place belongs to the so-called inactive anomalous zones. People constantly dream of something near the mountain, and at night some strange lights flicker.

Some tourists talk about cases of unexplained disorientation and wandering “in three pines”. The man could easily get lost, moving away from the camp for a hundred meters, and those in the camp did not hear his cries for help, just as he did not hear their cries. Earlier this was explained by the fact that "the unclean circled". This happened with the third expedition of the Ural Society of Natural History Lovers (UOLE) on August 20, 1889. They got to the place only on the second day, wandering all the previous "around the bush". By the way, the creator of UOLE, Onisim Yegorovich Kler, seeing this place in 1874, wrote: "Are these not cyclopean structures of ancient people?.."

But the Voguls, who lived in these lands before the Russians came here again, considered the peak with stone towers sacred and performed here their rituals, including magical ones, and offerings.

There is another myth that this mountain is man-made and stands in the place where the mysterious Chud people once went underground (not to be confused with the real Finno-Ugric people). Nobody knows what kind of people they are. Some equate this ancient mythological people with the European elves and gnomes. However, Pavel Petrovich Bazhov (1879-1950), a Russian folklorist who performed the literary processing of the Ural tales, tells about this people differently. In the tale "Dear name", he described the Chud as "old people" - a tall, beautiful people who lived in remote places. His dwellings, which were unusual and beautiful, he arranged inside the mountains. He lived almost without interfering with other peoples. These people did not know anger and envy, they were indifferent to gold and precious stones. Having met with human greed and cruelty, they left for another place, and put all the gold and precious stones inside the mountain, closing it until someone called "dear name". But this will only happen when the time is right. “There will be such a time in our side when there will be no merchants or a tsar even a rank. That's when people in our side will become big and healthy. One of these will come up to Mount Azov and loudly say "dear name", and then a chud will come out of the ground with all the treasures of men …"

Other legends say that the chud went underground, to underground cities. They were told about them by the Chelyabinsk writer-storyteller Seraphima Konstantinovna Vlasova (1901-1972), who continued the work of P. P. Bazhova, the Ural workers: “I recently heard in an old Ural plant that all caves, which are in the Urals, communicate with each other. It is as if holes are hidden between them, now wide, like the Kungur pits, these earthly dips, now thin, like golden threads. They also say that once in ancient times it was not difficult to move from cave to cave - there was a hard road. True, who tormented it, it is not known - either people, strangely unknown, or an unclean force … Only in our time, people, penetrating into those caves and those passages where you can go, find many traces: where the blast furnace is placed, where the amethyst stone lies, and where the human footprint is imprinted …"

N. K. Roerich in “Heart of Asia”: “… the Chud has not gone forever. When the happy time returns, and people from Belovodye come, and give the whole people great science, then the miracle will come again, with all the treasures that have been obtained …"

Scientists explain the origin of the Devil's Settlement by natural reasons: they say, the granites that make up the rocks are of volcanic origin and were formed about 300 million years ago. During this time, the mountains were severely destroyed due to temperature extremes, water and wind. And as a result, such a natural formation was allegedly formed. They argue that the impression given by its mattress-like structure that it is composed of flat slabs is false.

That is, in their opinion, a huge, strictly vertical wall on the top of the hill, akin to the defensive structures of the ancients, appeared simply because for 300 million years it was blown by the wind and poured rain, which, moreover, processed to a flat look and boulders that in multitude have dotted the space around the wall to the very bottom of the mountain.
