1,000 Year Old Coins Found In Australia,Will Rewrite History

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

Remember when you were taught that Australia was discovered by James Cook in 1770 who promptly declared it “terra nullius” and claimed it for the British throne?  Turns out that could be completely and utterly wrong. 
 
Five copper coins and a nearly 70-year-old map with an “X” might lead to a discovery that could rewrite Australia’s history. 
Australian scientist Ian McIntosh, currently Professor of Anthropology at Indiana University in the US, is planning an expedition in July that has stirred up the archaeological community. 
 
The scientist wants to revisit the location where five coins were found in the Northern Territory in 1944 that have proven to be 1000 years old, opening up the possibility that seafarers from distant countries might have landed in Australia much earlier than what is currently believed. 
 
Love this.  Great find, another piece of the puzzle that is our history.  Who did the coins belong to? Chinese? Vikings?   Whatever, whoever it is, it will be neat to find out. -Mort

      They have discovered pyramids, Egyptian hieroglyphs & statues, Phoenecian sea ports & artefacts, living quarter ruins in the jungle the Aboriginies claim no knowledge of, as well as cave art that predates the Aborigines & much, much more. This is a wild, undiscovered place with MUCH more history than is realised. A Queensland University researcher claimed to have been told to destroy the discovery of the Phoenecian sea port & never speak of it. At least 2 were discovered & even some type of Celtic or Norse artefacts. The Aboriginies in the north actually mumify their dead like Egyptians & Egyptian mummies have been found with eucalyptus oil. That’s just off the top of my head.
