Mysterious energy source

In 1845, archaeologists discovered the coffin of an ancient young woman near Rome. When the coffin was opened, her entire body was not rotten and was intact like a living person. Her face just looked like she was sleeping. Not only that, archaeologists were frightened when they saw an ancient lamp still glowing in the coffin.

Why can an ancient lamp stay lit for 1,500 hours but not go out? Where is the light source of these ancient lamps? Obviously, this lamp is not an oil lamp. Some people think that this ever-bright lamp is an ancient electric lamp. But electric lights are a product of modern civilization. Ancient people could not create electrical devices.

When excavating a tomb in Rome, people discovered a 1,500-year-old lamp that did not turn off.

Did you know that inside the ancient Egyptian pyramid 4,600 years ago there were beautiful sculpted frescoes? Because the mausoleums and corridors are so dark, these intricate works of art had to be carved and painted in bright light.

After analyzing the amount of dust accumulated in the tower for 4,600 years using the most advanced equipment, scientists found that there was no black smoke and smoke oil particles in the dust, as well as no traces of torch use. or oil lamp. It can be seen that ancient Egyptian artisans absolutely did not use torches or oil lamps for lighting when carving, writing, or painting in the pyramids.

The appearance of the ancient generator.

In mid-summer 1936, when a group of railway workers paving the road in Rabua village, on the outskirts of Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, accidentally unearthed an ancient tomb made of giant stone slabs. Inside the mausoleum is a coffin. Iraqi archaeologists excavated and discovered a large amount of gold, silver and valuable burial items from the ancient Persian period from 248 to 226 BC.

German archaeologist Wali Haram, who was once in charge of the Iraq Museum, said that while cleaning up unearthed cultural relics, he discovered a milky white clay vase 15 cm high and filled with asphalt. After long research, Wali believes that the vase is an ancient chemical battery. As long as you pour a little acid or alkaline water into the tank, it can generate electricity.

Is Wali's inference correct? German scholar Manlyn Ajbalich decided to make an ancient battery as Wali described for verification. He made copper tubes and ceramic pots according to the specifications of the excavated objects and then assembled them into ancient batteries. Then he took fresh grape juice and poured it into the battery, and the voltmeter needle immediately signaled a voltage of half a volt.

After many tests, it was finally confirmed that this ancient ceramic vase more than 2,000 years ago can generate electricity. People used this ancient generator to generate light or electrolytically plate gold.
