This mysterious spherical rock. may turn out to be the oldest stone made by human hands, known to history. presumes Bosnian archaeologist Semir Osmanagic.
Discovered in the forests of Zavidovici in Bosnia, the ball has a radius of approximately five feet, and an extremely high metal content, specifically iron.
Dr Osmanagic believes the sphere is proof of an advanced lost civilisation dating back thousands of years.
According to his fellow researcher Doctor Sam Osmanagich, the region laid claim to many more of the spheres. but unfortunately they were apparently destroyed during the 1970s due to rumours of gold hidden in the middle of them.
Dr Osmanagic, known as “the Bosnian Indiana Jones,” made headlines in 2005 when he claimed that a cluster of hills in Bosnia’s Visoko Valley was in fact the site of ancient pyramids linked by networks of underground tunnels.
While his claims have been mocked by some, the Bosnian government gave financial backing. enabling excavations to be carried out in the region. Bosnian Prime Minister, Nedzad Brankovic, told the press, “We were told the world was laughing at us, but there is no government in the world that should stay quiet on things which are positive.”
a refreshing stance for an official to take, however, some do not agree with semir’s hastily approach.

Anthony Harding, the president of the European Association of Archaeologists, described the Visoko excavation as “a total absurdity”, saying: “There is some genuine archaeology on the hill and I’m told it’s medieval, possibly Bronze Age or Roman. But the speculation that there could be a 12,000-year-old structure beneath is a complete fantasy and anyone with basic knowledge of archaeology or history should recognise that.”

2017 has begun, and critics are once again rattling their intellectual sabres in Dr Osmanagic’s direction. Discussing the Zavidovici sphere, Mandy Edwards of the University of Manchester’s School of Earth, Atmospheric and Environmental Sciences told a local news paper that the rock may not be man made at all, and have been formed by the “precipitation of natural mineral cement within the spaces between sediment grains” – a process known as concretion.

for example to my knowledge, siberia also owns a collection of similar stone spheres. known as the Jurassic pearls, they are thought to have formed in the same way as an oyster forms a pearl, a pearl will start with a single grain of sand, and slowly but surely calcium carbonate is deposited in concentric layers, like rolling a perfect snowball, however until more extensive understandings of the processes are known, we can only hypothesise as to how these stones came into being. whatever their origin. ancient advanced culture, aliens or even nature. is clearly irrelevant to their beauty, and allure.
