From Ancient Batteries to Modern Spark Plugs
In 1961, three rock enthusiasts stumbled upon a peculiar object while searching for geodes in California.

This object, known as the Coso Artifact, turned out to be a Champion spark plug from the 1920s encased in a concretion. It was not evidence of ancient technology but a modern object that had become embedded in natural materials over time. The Coso Artifact is an example of an out-of-place artifact (OOPArt)—an object found in a location or time where it shouldn't logically be according to historical understanding.

Some say they practiced magic in the hills, others saw them as the only help to someone in need. As with any healer, there were the good and the not-so-good ones, but it also depended on which part of the mountain you were in and which kind of healer you sought. Most natural healers relied on herbs from their gardens and praying; the healers would always give credit to the Lord, as the healer was only the vessel for his work to be done.

Historical Illiteracy Is One of the Biggest Problems Facing the Western World
It's not a trick question. How much do you know about the history of the human species? Do you know where you come from? No, not where your great-grandparents disembarked 150 years ago. Where do your roots truly lie? Many people can't answer that question.
