Remains of the Chachapoya civilization were first uncovered by archaeologists in 1843 at the Kuelap archaeological dig site. This was also another pre columbian civilization but inhabited Northern Peru, in the Andes mountain. They also went by the name of the cloud warriors because of the mythical legends that were told of how they able to mysteriously vanish during battles. Here in this photo, you see the Sarcophagi of the Carjia, where tombs were positioned standing along a cliffside. They would then paint the sarcophagi with red paint and this showed mummification and burial practices were sacred to this culture. This culture left no written records of themselves or why this people mysteriously vanished. The incas managed to reach their settlements high up in the andes and some belief the diseases from them caused a plague to sweep through their people. Or maybe they had to ability to vanish like the mythical legend claims.
4. The Khmer Empire
This powerful Buddhist-Hindu empire that stretched through most of Southeast Asia left behind some great accomplishments such as Angkor Wat and Bayon. These were both richly decorated temples in Cambodia, with unbelievable detail and artwork. In addition to their unique culture that prospered in the 9th to 15 century AD, the empire was marked with an extensive road system, and water management systems to take advantage of the monsoons. The temples needed to be rediscovered after this cultures mysterious downfall and in 1860, French missionaries came across lost monument. This powerful empire fought many wars on different fronts. Some claim that their extraordinary accomplishment of constructing extensive roads lead to their demise. Scholar claim that possibly invaders united against them and used these roads to invade the empires
3. Anasazi People
The Anasazi people were a Native American people who lived in pueblos in the South West, more specifically the 4 corners region since 1200 BC. These hunter and gatherer people later on developed advanced technology in agriculture, cultivating maize, beans, and squash. They had a prominent knowledge of celestial science which helped them decide where to place buildings. They didn’t call themselves the Anasazi, but were given this name by the Navajos meaning “ancient enemies”. They seemed to enjoy a fairly high standard of living for native americans, until they mysteriously vanished in 1200 AD. Why would they build these remarkable cliff dwellings, only to disappear not too long after. They left many of their possessions at home as if they were planning on returnings Here you see some mysterious cliff carvings by this culture. Some seem to think this was some kind of portal to another world others seem. Some claim it was due to drought but not enough remains were discovered to suggest this theory
2. Mayans
The Maya civilization is possibly the most well-known lost civilization who seemingly vanished off the face of the planet. They are well known for their construction of the Chichen Itza without metal tools and founding the advanced city of Tikal. They had a close relationship to the gods, the stars and even had the most accurate calendar of any pre columbian civilization and possibly the entire world. They understood astronomy at an astonishing level and their monuments line up with constellations. At the peak, there were over 20 million Mayans across the Yucatan Peninsula. Their origins go as far back as 2000 BC until their capital city of Mayapan was abandoned 9th century. Mainstream historians would suggest that drought or famine, deforestation and possibly brought a disappearance of their civilization. However, their advancements in so many different technologies and their obsession with astronomy would make you believe make you believe they just took a spaceship back home or something. Here in this photo you see what some people believe to be a depiction of a Mayan king, in some type of flying machine. Nonetheless, the disappearance of the Mayans has baffled historians
1.
Atlantis
Possibly the most mythical and mysterious of all lost civilizations is Atlantis. This was first mentioned by Plato, the Greek Philosopher. He talks about a highly advanced civilization, unlike any in the known world, that attacked Athens. They were somehow able to repel the attacks. At the end of the story, he talk about how the gods submerge the advanced nation with a flood and it sinks to the bottom of the Atlantic ocean. Could Plato have possibly had some credibility to these claims or did he just make up the story as some kind of fictional work. Could it just be another civilization that truly existed, and is just waiting to be discovered at the bottom of the ocean?
