One of the hardest truths that archaeologists have to face is that they'll never know everything there is to know about their discoveries. Some of the things they come across during their work don't seem to fit with the established narrative of history, and others have purposes that we can only guess at. Not knowing all the details only makes the discoveries more mysterious, though, and we all love a good mystery! Here are some fantastic and mysterious archaeological discoveries that baffled the people who found them.

What can we learn from studying an artefact left behind by our ancient ancestors? The answer to that question is “almost anything!” The most incredible of the many artefacts discovered by archaeologists over the years are like windows through time, allowing us a glimpse of people and places long gone. You’ll see many discoveries like that in this video, all with their own amazing stories to be told.
We love great discoveries on this channel, but those discoveries can take many forms. We’re as excited by the discovery of a fossil from millions of years ago as we are by someone finding a million dollars down the back of a sofa! Discoveries like that sound improbable, but the truth is that they happen all the time somewhere in the world. Whenever they do, news of the discovery gets back to us - and so we can make you fantastic videos full of amazing recent finds like this one!
All archaeological discoveries matter to somebody, but the greatest archaeological discoveries are the ones that have the potential to matter to everybody. We’re talking about discoveries that have the potential to rewrite our entire understanding of a place, a person, a culture or perhaps the whole world! Every discovery you’re about to see in this video fits into one of those categories, so strap yourself in and let’s get going.
There’s a certain level of fascination that comes with every archaeological discovery, but the very best discoveries should give you a sense of wonder. We hope to bring that sense of wonder to you in this video. It’s packed full of incredible archaeological finds from all over the world, offering us new insights into people and places that existed long before any of us were born!
We all know the feeling of looking at something and yet finding it so astonishing that it's difficult to believe the evidence of our own eyes. We're hoping to give you that feeling more than once over the course of this video. It's a collection of mysterious wonders, places and things that seem to defy expectation and reason. The only thing they have in common is that they're all incredible!
Everybody always wants the latest technology. In the modern era, none of us can wait to get our hands on the latest iPhone, smart TV or video games console. People in ancient times were just as enthusiastic about technology as we are. The technology they got excited about may have looked and functioned very differently from the technology of today, but it was still amazing - and this video contains the proof!
There’s a type of artefact that every archaeologist dreams of discovering - and we’re not talking about a golden treasure or something worth thousands of dollars. We’re talking about a find that challenges the established narrative of history so much that it could potentially change it. In other words, a find like all the discoveries you’re about to see in this video!
The work of archaeologists has remained the same throughout the centuries; they dig into the past to uncover the secrets of ancient civilisations. Some of the most recent discoveries made by archaeologists have been extraordinary, and we’ve packaged together some of the best of them for you in this video. Let’s get started!
We'll never run out of amazing archaeological finds to show you on this channel because the world's archaeologists will never stop coming up with incredible discoveries! This collection takes us all over the world and to every great period of history. Telling you the stories of these finds is what we do best here, so let's get straight into it!
If you want to find out what’s happening in the world at the moment, watch a news program. If you want to find out what happened in the world hundreds or even thousands of years ago, speak to an archaeologist or a historian. They have fascinating stories to tell, and so do the incredible discoveries they’ve made over the years - as you’re about to find out in this video!
There’s no clear definition of what makes an archaeological find special. In some cases, it can be the discovery’s financial value. In other cases, it can be its historical significance. In every case, though, the discovery has something about it that makes it stand out from the crowd. This video is all about those special discoveries - the ones that amaze even the experts!
Archaeology is the practice of taking things from the past and looking at them with the eyes of the present. It’s about trying to understand the people who came long before us, including the things they believed and the practices they followed. In simple terms, archaeology is a quest for knowledge - and there’s plenty of knowledge waiting for us all in this video!
The best archaeological discoveries aren’t the ones that you can pick up and understand immediately. They’re the ones that require extensive study and research before we can fully understand them. The more we study them, the more we find out about the lives and cultures of our ancient ancestors! Every amazing artefact you’re about to see in this video is like a mini history lesson.
Almost every artifact that an archaeologist or expert pulls out of the ground is worth looking at, but not all of them could be called ‘amazing.’ That description is reserved only for those artifacts that make everyone pause for a moment to consider the wonder of what they’re looking at. We’re talking once-in-a-lifetime discoveries of the kind that every archaeologist dreams of making, but only some get the chance! We’ve packed some of the best examples of what we’re talking about together for you in this video.
Archaeology might be the study of ancient history, but archaeology also has a recent history of its own - and that history is a busy one! We’ve seen remarkable archaeological discoveries happening all over the world in recent times. We’re always excited when that happens because it means we can bring you exciting, informative videos like this one!
All aboard our virtual time machine because it's time to take a trip to the distant past. We're going to get up close and personal with some fabulous artefact discoveries from all over the world, created by civilisations and cultures both mighty and meek. There are some strange and wonderful things in this collection, so let's take a look at them!
An ancient artefact is an object carved by the hands of our ancient ancestors and then left behind for us to find. If we find the right artefact in the right place, it can tell us new information about the past. If we find the wrong artefact in the wrong place, it leaves us with a mystery to solve! That’s why we love ancient artefacts on this channel, and we’re taking a video tour of some fantastic ones right now.
What have archaeologists been up to recently? Well, that’s a good question, and you’re in the right place to find out the answer! Archaeologists have been working as hard as they always do all over the world in recent times, and some of the things they’ve discovered are truly remarkable. Only the very best of those discoveries make it into videos on this channel, so sit back and enjoy this highlight reel featuring the best of those recent finds!
Some of us like to believe that science has an answer for everything. It's comforting to believe that somebody somewhere always knows what's happening and why, and they can give us a rational explanation to the most confusing and mysterious of events. The world doesn't work like that, though - there are plenty of mysteries that science and research don't have a satisfactory explanation for, and some of those mysteries are hundreds - or even thousands - of years old. Every location you're about to see in this video is well known and well-loved - but the best experts in the world can't agree on how they were built, or who by!
Despite being one of the most studied cultures and countries in human history, Ancient Egypt still holds many mysteries that remain unsolved to this day. It's easy to assume that we have uncovered all there is to know about this ancient civilisation, but that is far from the truth. In fact, some of the questions that still puzzle scientists today are so enigmatic that they send shivers down their spines. Let's check some out!
The next great archaeological discovery is never more than a few well-placed digs away! Researchers and experts all over the world are constantly working at historical sites, and finding out more about the places and people who came before us. The last two years have seen some especially remarkable discoveries come to light, and we've put the best of them together for you in this video!
An artefact is a history lesson in physical form. By studying artefacts, we find out new information about the civilizations and people of the past. The right artefact can put us in touch with our own history! Not every artefact discovery is interesting or exciting, but the ones you're about to see in this video are. Buckle up - it's going to be a wild ride!
Archaeologists will make a lot of discoveries over the course of their careers, but only a few that truly amaze them. Ask any archaeologist about the most spectacular thing they’ve ever seen, and they’ll have a list of perhaps two or three incredible discoveries that stand out more than all the rest. This video is about those discoveries. They were career highlights for the people who found them, and they’ll amaze you, too!
No matter what day of the month it is, or what month of the year it is, there's always an archaeologist making an incredible discovery somewhere. They sometimes get help from the general public, too, because you don't necessarily have to be an archaeologist to find something amazing! We always keep a close eye on what's happening in the exciting field of archaeology, and we're always happy to bring you the latest great finds in videos like this one. Enjoy!
Archaeologists must sometimes feel like they’ve seen everything there is to see. After all, once you’ve seen one fragment of pottery, you’ve seen them all. Every now and then, though, they’ll come across something that stops them in their tracks and makes them remember why they took up archaeology in the first place. This video is all about those discoveries -- the ones that stand out from the crowd and truly give you a sense of wonder!
There’s nothing so exciting in the world of archaeology as what’s been found recently. Recent discoveries give us a chance to learn new information about the people who lived long before us and laid the foundations of the world as it exists today. With that in mind, let’s check out the best recent archaeological finds!
No country or continent has a monopoly on fascinating artefact discoveries. They’re are as likely to be found at the northernmost point of North America as they are at the southernmost point of South Africa! We never know where an incredible artefact might be discovered, but we’re always thrilled when it happens. Here’s our latest collection of amazing finds from around the world.
The technologies used by our ancient ancestors are often a mystery to us. Many of our ancestors didn't have a written language, and some of them didn't even leave drawings behind, so their knowledge is lost to us! While the technology we enjoy today is marvellous, it's hard not to feel like we've lost a little knowledge when we study the accomplishments of those who came before us. Watch this video, and you'll see what we mean!
The progress made by technology in recent years is impressive, but some leaps into the future are bigger than others. All of us can imagine having a fully functioning robot assistant powered by artificial intelligence, for example, but we’d be quite surprised if someone came up with a working model for such a thing this year. That’s probably how people of the time felt about the amazing old inventions in this video!
There are a couple of clues in the word “artifacts” that explain why many people are so fascinated by them. Many of them are “arty,” and they often come with interesting “facts” attached to them. Whether discovered by an amateur sleuth, an archaeologist, a paleontologist, or by accident by a random member of the public, every single one of the artifacts you’re about to see in this video comes with a story. Make yourself comfortable, and we’ll tell you all about them!
If there's one thing we love in this channel, it's incredible archaeological finds. We love hearing about them, and we love sharing their stories with you. We're doing it again in this video, which is packed full of outstanding finds from all over the world and every period of history!
Archaeologists and scientists often work together to solve the mysteries of a discovery. An archaeologist might be able to say roughly where and when an artefact or an object was made, but they can’t always say why or how it was made. In those circumstances, they’ll turn to a scientist for assistance. There are times when the scientists can’t help, though - and those are the times that allow us to make videos like this one!
It’s not always true to say that the rarest archaeological discoveries are the most valuable. However, it is true to say that the rarest archaeological discoveries are often the most interesting! Rare finds have fewer things for experts to compare them to, so discovering their history becomes a challenge. We’ve seen some great examples of rare, fascinating discoveries made recently, and we’re happy to share them with you in this video!
Yes, folks, it's that time again! It's time to take in the archaeological news from around the world and find out which secrets from the past have been brought to light recently. We always keep our ears to the ground for news on this channel, so when an archaeologist digs into that ground, we're the first to hear about it. Once we have the news, we bring it straight to you in fact-packed videos like this. Let's go!
Sometimes, archaeologists find it hard to believe what they’re seeing. They set out in search of one thing only to find something else entirely. Sometimes, the things they find even contradict their understanding of their previous discoveries! When that happens, all they can do is accept that they’ve found something unbelievable - and we’ve put together some of those unbelievable finds for you in this video.
What’s the difference between a normal archaeological find and an incredible archaeological find? What elevates a discovery past “interesting” to “fascinating?” Is it its financial value? Is it the things it can tell us about history? Does it need to have the undefinable X-factor? We’re not sure, but we know it when we see it! We find all of the archaeological discoveries you’re about to see incredible, and we hope you feel the same way.
Welcome back to the channel for another look at some truly outstanding artefact discoveries! They come from all throughout the ages and all over the world - some big, some small, but all amazing! In many cases, the stories of their discovery are as incredible as the artefacts themselves. Let’s waste no more time and dive straight into it.
Through the practice of archaeology, all that was old can become new again. Things left behind by our ancestors hundreds or even thousands of years ago are rediscovered, and they help us to see the people who came before us in a new light. We have a lot of respect and admiration for archaeologists and their colleagues in paleontology, and we’re celebrating that with this video full of the finest of their recent finds!
Every land and country in the world has a history of its own - and that history is there to be explored if you only know where and how to look for it. That’s the job of archaeologists, and they do their job well. Thanks to their work, we constantly learn new things about the lives, beliefs, and customs of our ancient ancestors. Let’s check out some of their most incredible discoveries!
Be aware: incredible ancient artefacts could be anywhere! They might be buried under the road at the end of your street. They might even be underneath your garden or tucked away in your attic! You never know when or where one is going to turn up, but they always make fantastic stories when they do. That's what this video is all about - incredible artefacts and the tales of their discoveries!
In order for a scientist to explain something accurately, they need to be in possession of all the facts. If they only have some of the facts, all they can do is guess. Sometimes, they don’t even have enough facts to make a good guess! Whenever that happens, we’re left with a mystery. That’s not much fun for scientists, but it’s fun for us because it means we can make videos like this one!
If there's one thing you can rely on this channel for, it's amazing archaeology. Our eyes are always open to the greatest archaeological treasures in the world, and we're always excited to bring you new videos full of fantastic finds and dynamic discoveries. There are plenty of them in this video, so make yourself comfortable, and we'll begin!
