In the far away Pacific Ocean, this is Pompey Island, which is hiding a secret under its mangrove forests, which makes the human mind go blank. If we estimate the distance of Pompey Island, then it is closest to Papua New Guinea, which is also 1900 km away from here. And on the second number is Japan, which is 3600 km away. From the top, it looks like Pompey Island is full of forests and mangroves. But in reality, the city of souls and spirits is hidden beneath this forest. Yes, a city where the locals are afraid to go.
It is believed that if someone tried to go here or tried to talk about this city, they could die. Welcome to ZMTV’s videos again. This city named Nan Madol is hidden under the forest in the east of Pomfey Island. To get there, you have to get permission from the king of Pomfey Island. And after completing a special ritual, a unique drink made from the roots of the Kava plant is given. Which is made by rubbing on a stone. It is believed that after completing all these rituals, the souls of Nain Madol do not attack. Even after entering the jungle, Nain Madol cannot be seen completely because the mangroves and their roots have completely hidden the structures here.
Hidden in the middle of the dense jungle, this is the largest structure of the area, which was built 800 years ago with the help of large pillars of stones. This special stone is called basalt rock, which is formed due to the coldness of the lava. Each stone slab weighs at least 5 tons, which is equivalent to four sedan cars. But there are some rocks here that can weigh up to 70 tons or 70,000 kilos. It can be quite challenging to lift such a heavy weight with the help of advanced machinery. So think about how this work was done 800 years ago in the deserts of the Pacific Ocean. The curiosity of this puzzle is no less than the sculptures of the rocks made in the Giza Pyramids and Easter Islands. The biggest thing is that the whole area around is filled with coral reefs and jungles. There are no such stones here. So where did these stones come from and how were they picked up?
Stories among locals are famous that this work was done with the help of magic. But what is the real reason for this? It is very difficult to know. Because there is no written history or evidence. There are only stories that have been changing for centuries. To study this whole city well, it is very important to cut down the mangroves here. Physically this work is not possible, so it was decided to take the help of technology. The Lidar scanning device was installed in the drone and the scanning of the entire area was started.
The Lidar waves can pass through the trees, but they collide with the rocks and are recorded in the Lidar device. With the help of this data, a 3D model of the area. Here, about 90 structures hidden under the trees emerged. It also had residential complexes, temples and ritual places. the 800-year-old Sakao Pounding Stone was still present. The same stone on which the Sakao drink is still made by rubbing the roots of Kawa. After further investigation, it was found that each structure was actually built on a separate man-made island. artificial sea walls were also built to protect them from sea waves. Were they super humans or were they really created by the help of souls or magic?
Even though they are small, man-made islands were not less than a miracle in those days. On one hand, despite today’s advanced technology, the world islands of Dubai are being seen as the sea. On the other hand, the man-made islands of Nain Madol, which were inhabited 800 years ago, were built in the city. You will be surprised to know that the weight of basalt rock in all the structures of Nain Madol is more than 7 lakh tons. It is as heavy as 8 aircraft carriers or the world’s largest freight train which was 8 km long. Such 8 trains weigh as much as the weight of the structures of Nain Madol. Now the question arises, where did Basalt Rock come from in such a large number? a quarry of basalt rock was found about 1.5 km away, which was also hidden by trees.
When climbed up to 1.5-200 feet high, the slabs of basalt rock were still there, which were probably lying here for some reason. Smoke and ash were found on these slabs, which shows that water was poured over it, which separated basalt rock slabs from the quarry. Some part of the 800-year-old man-made island puzzle in the Pacific Ocean had been solved. Now it was time to find out how these stones were taken 18 km away from the quarry to Nain Madol. As you know, each stone weighs between 5 to 70 tons. It is not possible to carry such a heavy weight from the middle of Pomfrey Island.
Because the high mountains have blocked the way between Stone Quarry and Nain Meadow. There is only one way to do this. Somehow these stones were carried to the ocean, and the entire circle was rotated to reach Nain Madol. To prove this theory, the sea floor was searched with sonar scanning with Nain Madol. There, in a depth of 300 feet, some objects were scanned that did not seem to be part of the sea floor.
It was found that some basalt rock pillars were also present on the ocean floor, which had probably fallen into the sea during transport. These pillars are evidence that such heavy stones were brought to Nain Madol by sea. During research on Nain Madol, some new things were being observed at every turn. Researchers believe that if the people living here could transport such heavy stones by sea, it means that they must have gone to other islands as well. A 15 km distance from Pomfey Island, a place called Ant Atoll was examined. There too, at many places, basalt rock pillars and many Sakao stones were seen.
It means that these were not ordinary people, but very skilled people, who 800 years ago. Researchers and historians took a closer look at Pompeii Island and found a stone art site where carvings were made on the rocks. These carvings are not 800 but 2000 years old and a unique symbol was also seen. It is surprising that the same symbol is seen 3,600 km away in New Caledonia today.
This symbol means that whoever made it, the sea journey was a child’s play for them. To travel so far without GPS and advanced equipment and to build man-made islands and such huge structures on top of them show that the ruling elite of that era lived here. But no one knows where they left such a huge system.
