There are some historical mysteries that may never be solved, from the date that Jesus was born to the identity of Jack the Ripper to the location of Cleopatra's tomb. Sometimes, that's because the relevant excavated material has been lost or an archaeological site has been destroyed. Other times, it's because new evidence is unlikely to come forward or the surviving evidence is too vague to lead scholars to a consensus.

The lack of answers only makes these enigmas more intriguing. Here, Live Science takes a look at 14 of these historical questions that may never have definitive explanations.

WAS THERE A REAL KING ARTHUR?

WHO WAS JACK THE RIPPER?

WHERE IS JIMMY HOFFA?

WHERE IS CLEOPATRA'S TOMB?

WHO KILLED JFK?

WAS CAESARION TRULY CAESAR'S SON?

IS THERE A MONEY PIT ON OAK ISLAND?

IS THE COPPER SCROLL TREASURE REAL?

FATE OF THE ARK OF THE COVENANT

WHEN WAS JESUS BORN?

WERE THE HANGING GARDENS OF BABYLON REAL?

etc.................

I would imagine given the technology of the time the wood and stone have long turned to dust. ‘They’ say it is in that little temple in Ethiopia.

Tomb of Alexander the Great.

Imagine this, it is said that they hauled his dead body around for years before they buried him. Even fought over his dead body.

All of these will be solved long before anyone figures out how to understand women.

That warehouse is located at Area 51 in Nevada. In the “Crystal Skull” movie, in the chase scene inside the warehouse, the Ark was accidently freed from its packing case.

Gold doesn’t dissolve in water


That’s what they said on the show ... but there was some technical chemical explanation given by a Canadian chemist I didn’t follow not being a chemist. Long and short is: water dissolves everything, given enough time and the right conditions.

The 2nd chapter of the 2nd book of Maccabees tells WHERE the Old Testament Ark of the Covenant was hidden. According to the Bible passage cited above, the Old Testament Ark of the Covenant is in a covered-up cave on Mt Nebo in the Kingdom of Jordan, coordinates 31.765095 degrees N by 35719079 degrees E, just NE of the Dead Sea. It was carried just over 24 miles from Jerusalem, when Jerusalem was about to be conquered & destroyed, including the 1st Temple, by the Babylonians, about 586 BC. Q.E.D.

FATE OF THE ARK OF THE COVENANT

1 One finds in the records that Jeremiah the prophet ordered those who were being deported to take some of the fire, as has been told, 2 and that the prophet after giving them the law instructed those who were being deported not to forget the commandments of the Lord, nor to be led astray in their thoughts upon seeing the gold and silver statues and their adornment. 3 And with other similar words he exhorted them that the law should not depart from their hearts.

4 It was also in the writing that the prophet, having received an oracle, ordered that the tent and the ark should follow with him, and that he went out to the mountain where Moses had gone up and had seen the inheritance of God. 5 And Jeremiah came and found a cave, and he brought there the tent and the ark and the altar of incense, and he sealed up the entrance. 6 Some of those who followed him came up to mark the way, but could not find it. 7 When Jeremiah learned of it, he rebuked them and declared: “The place shall be unknown until God gathers his people together again and shows his mercy." (2 Maccabees 2:1-7)

19 Then God’s temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple; and there were flashes of lightning, loud noises, peals of thunder, an earthquake, and heavy hail. 1 And a great portent appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. (Revelation 11:19--12:1)

Where are the videos from Epstein’s island and the Lolita flights? Plus NYC and Palm Beach.

Ain’t that interesting?

Oh btw, Epstein didn’t kill himself.

re: Alexander the Great

His sarcophagus was reportedly made of crystal so the body could be viewed. It was being transported back to Macedonia and was hijacked by soldiers serving Ptolemy, the general and future dynast of Egypt. It was transported to Alexandria Egypt and was apparently available for viewing for many years. Some speculate the sarcophagus is somewhere out there in the sea fronting the city.. so is Cleopatra’s. The sea level is so much higher now that most of ancient Alexandria is out there in the sea. Why the tomb wasn’t treasured and preserved is lost to time.. there is no record of what became of it.
