Are you imagining it? It’s the early 1800’s and you’re on a ship in the Baltic Sea, you’re on your way to Russia and you’re a little bit drunk – on some excellent brew.

And then the storm hits…

(Let’s hear a cheer for reincarnated beer!)

Shipwreck’s ‘oldest beer’ to be analysed, brewed again

By Jason Palmer Science and technology reporter, BBC News

Samples of the world’s oldest beer have been taken in a bid to determine its recipe – and brew it again.

In July 2010, a Baltic Sea shipwreck dated between 1800 to 1830 yielded many bottles of what is thought to be the world’s oldest champagne.

Five of the bottles later proved to be the oldest drinkable beer yet found.

The local government of the Aland island chain where the wreck was found has now commissioned a scientific study to unpick the beer’s original recipe.

Divers found the two-mast ship at a depth of about 50 metres in the Aland archipelago, which stretches between the coasts of Sweden and Finland in the Baltic Sea.

The ship was believed to be making a journey between Copenhagen in Denmark and St Petersburg, then the capital of Russia…

You’ve seen it before, headlines such as “The Secret to Anti-Gravity REVEALED!” – but, maybe, just maybe, there IS a secret to anti-gravity, and maybe, just maybe, it was something the ancients already knew all about? For example, have you really considered how on earth the Coral Castle was constructed by a lone builder with nothing but primitive tools? Not only did he build this megalithic stone monument, he moved the entire thing one night, alone, to a completely different location miles away…

Here‘s the Coral Castle scoop in case you need a refresher:

…And here is a very enlightening video on anti-gravity that you do not want to miss:

The Crypt

“The tomb or crypt in which the mummies were found is one of the largest of the chambers, the walls slanting back at an angle of about 35 degrees. On these are tiers of mummies, each one occupying a separate hewn shelf. At the head of each is a small bench, on which is found copper cups and pieces of broken swords. Some of the mummies are covered with clay, and all are wrapped in a dark fabric. The urns or cups on the lower tiers are crude, while as the higher shelves are reached, the urns are finer in design, showing a later stage of civilization. It is worthy of note that all the mummies examined so far have proved to be male, no children or females being buried here. This leads to the belief that this exterior section was the warriors’ barracks.” – Arizona Gazette 1909

Have you heard about the mysterious article allegedly published in the Arizona Gazette in 1909 detailing an explorer’s discovery of ancient Egyptian artifacts in the Grand Canyon? Yes, you read that correctly – the Grand Canyon.

Is this a hoax or were these discoveries authentic? Did we have Egyptian Pre-Colombian contact in the Americas? And if so, why is this information being suppressed today?

Read the original article said to be from 1909, here. You may also explore further here and here. This is a very interesting enigma indeed and one that you should have fun researching for a while. Enjoy!
