Crystal Skull found in Mayan city. Totally 8 were found by the researchers and they studied it was actually 13 skulls totally.. 5 still not found.
Ancient tribe of Maya passed on a legend that tells of the 13 crystal sculls able to save the world from a terrible catastrophe.
Once in 1927 a British archeologist Mitchell-Hedges was able to confirm the Mayan legend through his own discovery: when the man was clearing debris from atop a ruined temple at the ancient Mayan city of Lubaantum his daughter found one such skull made out of pure quartz.
Later a few more of these mysterious artifacts came into possession of people in different parts of the world. Places where the human sized ancient crystal skulls have been found are generally various ruins and many are guarded by descendants of indigenous people throughout the world.
The skulls have mystical qualities: they can bring their owners into the state of hypnosis, cause people to hallucinate or have dreams about ancient Indians. Some say they can even make wishes come true.
According to the Crystal Links research a conservator and restorer Frank Dorland studying one of the skulls discovered that it had zygomatic arches acting as light pipes, using principles similar to modern optics, to channel light from the base of the skull to the eye sockets.
The eye sockets in turn were miniature concave lenses that also transferred light from a source below, into the upper cranium. Finally, in the interior of the skull was a ribbon prism and tiny light tunnels, by which objects held beneath the skull could be magnified and brightened. As a result, when placed upon a source of light, the skull acquired glowing eyes and appeared to be on fire.
Yet the origins and the manufacturing of the skulls remain inexplicable. World Mystery Research Center reports that several of ancient skulls have been brought to Hewlett-Packard, located in the San Francisco area. Hewlett- Packard, long known as a manufacturer of printers and computer systems, has one of the most extensive scientific and crystal research laboratories in the world.
The scientist working at HP, who had a chance to work with some of these ancient crystal skulls were hard pressed to explain how a primitive culture could have carved crystal into such precise shapes and especially against the natural axis of the crystal without the use of sophisticated tools!
Thus far, four types of ancient quartz skulls are known including clear quartz, amethyst (purple), rose quartz (pink) and smoky quartz (from grey to black). It may be that these magic gifts of the ancestors would assist humanity in surviving the doomsday of 2012, as was foretold by the enigmatic Maya civilization.

Nefertiti - Pharaoh queen. No one knows her origin. Archaeologists say she may be an alien based on the Egyptian carvings and paintings...
Check her elongated-covered skull or head
Nefertiti and Pharaoh Akhenaten with their kids..
For over a decade Nefertiti was the most influential woman in Egypt. Held in godlike reverence by her people, she reigned alongside Amenophis IV, a ruler of the 18th dynasty of the New Kingdom, who changed his name to Akhenaton after ascending the throne around 1353BC. However, next to nothing is known about the beautiful queen. At around 1336BC, she simply vanished from history. She would have been about 30 years old.
Meteoric rise and abrupt end
Nefertiti was married to the Pharaoh Akhenaton, son of Amenophis III, in the fourth year of his reign. She seems to have been about 15 years old at the time. Akhenaton was one year younger. As a result of their union she rose to become one of the most powerful female rulers of Egypt. She was loved, celebrated and worshipped. She was present at the king's side at every important occasion and her status was very nearly equal to his. But then, abruptly, the trail ends. Right up to the present day, no evidence has been found that could shed light on Nefertiti's mysterious end. Until now, her body was believed lost.
Where did Nefertiti come from?
The queen's origins and background are equally unknown. According to one theory, she may have been the Mitannic princess Tadukhepa, the intended bride of Amenophis III, but may instead have married his son. Another theory says Nefertiti was the issue of a union between Amenophis III and a concubine. That would make Akhenaton and Nefertiti half-brother and half-sister to each other. This theory is somewhat improbable, as the title, 'Daughter of the Pharaoh' would then have been Nefertiti's by right, but it never was. A third theory is that Nefertiti was the daughter of Ti (also spelt Tiy) and Ay (also spelt Aya). On this basis, her father would have been a top official at the court of Amenophis III and subsequently a close confidant of Akhenaton. According to this theory, which is gaining currency among Egyptologists, Nefertiti's background would thus have been in the top rank of Egyptian society. However, Ti was probably not the biological mother of the beautiful queen, but was, more likely on the evidence, to have been her wet-nurse.
In the glory of the sun god
Nefertiti and the Pharaoh Akhenaton jointly introduced major religious and cultural reforms. Their most radical departure from tradition was to forsake Egypt's time-honoured deities and dedicate themselves to the sun god Aton.
In the fifth year of Akhenaton's reign, the royal couple moved their official residence from Thebes to Achetaton, 'Place of Aton's Light' – a city now known by its Arabic name of El-Amarna. Even in Karnak, which until then had been the traditional centre for the cult of Amun, new temples were built in honour of the sun god. These were adorned with a large number of images of Nefertiti who had, as monarch, the additional royal title of 'Neferneferuaten' - 'Perfect is the perfection of Aton'.
Nefertiti was immortalised in temples and on monuments more than any other Egyptian queen, before or after her. It is likely that the beautiful queen even held the office of High Priest – a rank that was supposed to be reserved for kings alone. Yet, in the last years of Akhenaton's reign, Nefertiti vanished from pictures and reliefs and was replaced by two of her six daughters, Meritaton and Ankhesenpaaton.
Mysterious fate
What could have happened to the queen? For a long time, researchers believed that Nefertiti had fallen from favour and been cast out of the royal family by Akhenaton. Perhaps because it was becoming obvious she would never bear a son? Another theory maintained that the ruling couple were overthrown by a rebellion of their people, who regarded the worship of Aton as heresy. Certainly, once Tutankhamun had ascended the throne in 1333BC, anything that might recall the memory of Akhenaton and Nefertiti was systematically erased.
To date, in the tomb at Achetaton, only burial objects associated with Akhenaton have been found. This suggests Nefertiti was never entombed there. The queen's death isn't officially recorded anywhere else.
Did Nefertiti succeed Akhenaton on the throne?
Although Akhenaton did have a son by his concubine, Kia – this was Tutankhamun – the successor he named was Smenkhkare. Just who this regent was is still unknown. Some Egyptologists say he was another son of Akhenaton's by Kia, others take the view that Smenkhkare was a half-brother of Akhenaton, or some other member of the royal family. The fact that Smenkhkare and Nefertiti used the same additional name - Neferneferuaten – has led some scholars to theorise that Nefertiti herself assumed power on the death of Pharaoh Akhenaton in 1336BC. However, there is also evidence to suggest Nefertiti died during the 14th year of her husband's reign, at a time when Egypt was being ravaged by an epidemic of plague.
Is Nefertiti's sudden vanishing destined to remain a mystery forever? Maybe the unnamed corpse, believed by the British archaeological team to be the mummified body of the glamorous queen, is about to reveal a few of its secrets.

Nazca Lines
Nazca Lines are the most outstanding group of geoglyphs in the world. Etched in the surface of the desert pampa sand about 300 hundred figures made of straight lines, geometric shapes and pictures of animals and birds - and their patterns are only clearly visible from the air.
The high desert of Peru holds one of the most mystifying monuments of the known world—the massive-scale geoglyphs known as the Nasca Lines. Ranging from geometric patterns to "drawings" of different animals and stylized human-like forms. The ancient lines can only be truly taken in, their forms discerned, from high in the air, leaving generations mystified as to how these precise works could've been completed long before the documented invention of human flight. Are the lines signs left by an alien race? Landing strips for UFOs? Relics of a ancient people far more advanced—capable of human flight—then previously imagined?
Etched, as if by giants, onto the arid moonscape of Peru's southern desert lies one of man's greatest mysteries; the Nasca Lines. More than 15,000 geometric and animal-like patterns have been discovered criss-crossing the pampas like a vast puzzle. Who built them and what was their purpose? Ancient racetracks, landing strips for aliens, or perhaps a giant astronomical calendar? And are the Lines connected to the gruesome discovery of large cache's of severed human heads. Now, after decades of misunderstanding, modern archaeology may finally have the answer.
Excavations in the surrounding mountains are uncovering extraordinary clues about the people who made them and why. A long since vanished people, called the Nasca, flourished here between 200BC and 700AD. But the harsh environment led them to extreme measures in order to survive.
Archaeologist Christina Conlee recently made an extraordinary find: the skeleton of a young male, ceremonially buried but showing gruesome evidence of decapitation. In place of the missing human head, a ceramic "head jar" decorated with a striking image of a decapitated head with a tree sprouting from its skull.
Conlee wonders who this person was? Why was he beheaded and yet buried with honor. Was he a captive taken in battle, or could he have been a willing sacrifice? And did his decapitation have anything to do with the lines? The discovery of large caches of human heads adds grisly weight to Conlee's theories and helps unravel on of man's great mysteries.

As per Mayan, Dec 21 2012 is the Dooms day - in other words the Mayan calendar ends referring a big catastrophe in Earth.. It's now getting exposed with scientific proof namely, Gallactic alignment -
Good Read - NASA - The Great 2012 Doomsday Scare
It is believed that Solar system would be changing its axis after aligns with Gallactic equator of Milky way. It is presumed that there exists a "Dark Rift" - kind of black hole which will result in great catastrophic effect. If not, Earth's angled rotation on 23.5 degree would be pushed further once the solar system axis changes - resulting in polar shifting..

Question:Mr Assange, have there ever been documents forwarded to you which deal with the topic of UFOs or extraterrestrials?
Julian Assange:
Many weirdos email us about UFOs or how they discovered that they were the anti-christ whilst talking with their ex-wife at a garden party over a pot-plant. However, as yet they have not satisfied two of our publishing rules.
1) that the documents not be self-authored;
2) that they be original.
However, it is worth noting that in yet-to-be-published parts of the cablegate archive there are indeed references to UFOs.
