Introduction
The world is the mysterious realm filled with secrets that have baffled mankind for decades. Mysteries that were left unsolved has prompted us to fabricate. This mysterious world never cease to astound us, regardless of unsolved phenomena or unexplainable mysteries.
Voynich Manuscript
A book with 240 pages written with cryptic texts and illustrations. Experts beleived that they have discovered a priceless document. However, on decoding not a single word is decrypted making it unreadable and as a result they gave up trying. Canadian researchers recently attempted to decode the scripts using Artificial Intelligence. Furthermore, they found that these scripts were composed botanically and concluded that further decryption can only be made on technological advancements since they found that this document may have some useful information that resolves present day’s medical issues.
Drepanosaurus
One of the most enigmatic animals which inhabited here in this planet is Drepanosaurus. The fossils of this creature were discovered in a severely damaged state. On reconstructing the remains scientists found that it belonged to the dinosaur family. Proving it wrong, a comparable fossil was discovered a month after conclusion, but on contrary the creature had nails instead of fingers stating that it belonged to ant-eater family.The notion that astounds me is that these creatures lived 230 million years ago. How could a creature with the aspects of both ant-eater and dinosaur exist? The question of how this species has developed is still up to debate.

ALH84001 Meteor
Usually, small meteors strike our planet once per year or two; these meteors on reaching the surface, force and pressure cause them to burst into ashes. On examining a littile fragmentof ALH84001 meteor they discovered that it would have formed 4.1 billion years ago. Just imagine how historic it may me. Furthemore, on conduction additional research it is found that the top layer of this meteor has the bacterial fossils, suggesting that the origin of this meteor remains unfound. Till now, scientist could not determine that entire meteor fragment is made of fossiled remnants of bacteria that stick to the upper layer.

Nampa Stone Doll
Founded in 1889 at the depth of 300 feet in the city of Nampa at Idhao. One may wonder, is there a mystery in discovering an ancient doll? The doll is not the key, rather the depth to which it is found. On diving further the sand which is at that depth comes from the period of the Pliocene and Pleistocene which is almost 2 million years ago. On the other hand, research proves that human development began under 1 million years ago.Despite the fact of human existence since then, are the people civilized and cultured?, Does any civilization remain undiscovered? remains a mystery.
