Colombian Jaime Gutierrez Leta for many years collected all kinds of unexplained ancient artifacts. Over time, his collection has grown to several hundred units. It was in her that Erich von found Danien, Swiss writer and filmmaker, one of the ideologists paleocontact theory a mysterious artifact. This is a stone disc with a diameter of 27 cm. and weighing about 2 kg, coated on both sides drawings. The artifact is called the “genetic disk.”
Riddle 1: how was it made?
The disk is made of stone called lidit. In hardness he is not inferior to granite. Cutting something on it is very problematic, and the reason is not only hardness. Lidit has a layered structure, therefore, it crumbles during processing. How the ancient master managed to cut there are several dozens of small drawings on the disk?
The disk was shown to Viennese stone processing specialists. After hours of research they rendered the verdict that they had no idea have how it was done. Experts admitted that they themselves unable to perform such work.
One expert suggested that the drawings on the disc not carved, but stamped. But this version, you understand, does not The answer, on the contrary, adds new questions.
Riddle 2: what is depicted on it?
On both sides of the disc are images illustrating stages of development of the human embryo from the moment of conception to its birth Here is a man and a woman. Here is a male testicle without sperm, here with the sperm. Here is the egg before fertilization, but already fertilized. Then a few images of the human embryo as it develops. And now fully formed fetus.
Medical experts who have been consulted fully confirmed the correspondence of reality pictures. Moreover, they drew attention to the details of the images, known only to specialists: a wide nose and far-flung eyes of the fetus. Artifact researchers thought it was just a style not. These are just the features characteristic of a human embryo.
All these “small details” to be examined with the naked eye. impossible, only under a microscope. First microscopes appeared in the end of the XVI century. However, the disk proves the existence of such knowledge in people. in ancient times! Where from?
Riddle 3: where did the disk come from?
Even the disc location is not exactly determined. Professor Summer purchased a disc from one of the locals. According to seller artifact was found in the province of Kundinamarca in the vicinity of the city Sutatausa (Colombia). He himself did not know more. However it is being questioned.
In the 20th century, missionary Carlo Crespi preached in Ecuador. To to support his parishioners, he bought all kinds of rarities from them, from ceramics to stone slabs that peasants found in the field or in the jungle. Padre himself was not interested in finds or even led accounting for their exhibits. After the death of Crespi took part of the collection The Vatican, and part remained in place and is believed to have been lost.
Erich von Daniken believes that the genetic disk is just from Carlo Crespi collection. But then the place of the find moves from Colombia to Ecuador, and this is not tens or hundreds of kilometers.
Riddle 4: how old is he?
South American pre-Columbian culture experts don’t they are taken to indicate to which culture the genetic disk belongs. Manufacturing technology, image style – nothing like not in any museum, not in any private collection. If suggest that the disk belonged to a civilization that existed before famous scientists of South American cultures, then by this criterion The find’s age goes deep into 6.000 years.
The National University of Colombia conducted a geological expertise. Scientists have confirmed the ancient age of the find. The exact date they did not dare to name, but rejected the possibility of fake definitely. Their verdict: the genetic disk is undoubtedly somewhat thousand years, here’s the mystery of history.
Riddle 5: other exhibits from the collection of Jaime Leta
The disc is not the only item in Professor Leta’s collection, made of lidit. There are a few more items quite intricate forms, the purpose of which is very difficult to determine. Knives curved hooks, strange scrapers, etc. And everything is done carefully, the shapes are simply amazing, the craftsmanship of the thread is simply amazing. AND a complete set of problems of the Genetic disk: it is not clear how it is done by whom, where, when and for what.

The most common version is that these are medical instruments ancient “geneticists”. The handle of one of the knives represents a baby, whose neck is entwined with an umbilical cord. Maybe with this knife an ancient surgeon cut the umbilical cord, thereby saving the life of the newborn?
Riddle 6: Unencrypted Genetic Images drive
Doctors, looking at the disk and confidently explaining the meaning of individual images, several drawings left without comment. what depicted by an ancient artist? What information did he put into these images? Maybe he knew something, a modern scientist is still unknown?
Riddle 7: a civilization we know nothing about
Colombian Archeology Committee declines to recognize genetic disk as representing historical value. Otherwise should have been allowed to exist in the beyond in the South America of civilization, about which absolutely nothing is known.
Perhaps someday future archaeological finds will drive committee change your verdict. And maybe not.
