Strange Ancient Mechanical Flying Animals – Myths Or Advanced Ancient Technology? – Part 1
Ellen Lloyd – AncientPages.com – Since we were not there, we cannot say what our ancestors created, witnessed or fantasized about. When we study myths and legends of ancient people, we can read those stories as entertaining fables or search for clues that are sometimes hidden between the lines.
Now suppose that in thousands of years from now, someone encounters a science fiction book written by one of our authors along with an article describing the launch of a space probe to Mars. How will the person be able to determine which events were real or our dreams about exploring space?
This is what we are facing when we look for clues in ancient sources. Do some events offer proof or advanced ancient technology or are we merely exploring the dreams of our ancestors?
In this article, we explore some unusual ancient flying animals. Were they mechanical creatures or the product of ancients imagination?
