Countless pieces of evidence exist on our planet that describe and attest visits by extraterrestrial visitors and previous civilizations. These include structures that humans of that era simply could not have built without the appropriate technology, such as the pyramids at Giza with their many shafts precisely aligned with the stars (Orion especially), which could not possibly have been constructed with the means available at the time. Not only then, but even today we can not replicate these structures. One such artifact was found among the most impressive cultures in Earth’s history – the Mayans.

This artifact, which fortunately passed into private hands after its discovery and has remained there until today, is arguably one of the most valuable objects ever found on our planet. It has survived centuries and millennia to serve as evidence for us. Had this find not become privately owned, no one would likely know about it today, as it would have disappeared somewhere to protect the current worldview. According to legend, there are 13 of them – the fabled Crystal Skulls. But this article focuses on the most beautiful, detailed, and intriguing of them all – the Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull.

As so often happens, critics who overpromised have been utterly disgraced. This is evident here, as we are practically overwhelmed with facts, rendering few explanations plausible.

The Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull was discovered in the rainforest of Belize, where, for over 8,000 years, the Mayan civilization had built their colossal pyramids and cities for their gods, connected by a vast road network as astonishing as the rest of this unique culture. The roads alone stretched up to 170 km in length and were approximately 10 meters wide. Their construction: paved with rock and additionally covered with a weatherproof layer. What’s interesting about the roads is the fact that the Mayans built underpasses, even raised sections of road when necessary, and smoothed out uneven surfaces, despite supposedly not even having wheeled vehicles – indeed, according to archaeologists, they were even unfamiliar with pack animals. Strange!

In 1927, the skull was discovered in a Mayan temple complex named Lubaantun by Anna Mitchell-Hedges, the then 17-year-old daughter of the archaeologist Frederick Albert Mitchell-Hedges. That it was her birthday that day was pure coincidence, but of course, this also prompted some thoughtless and embarrassing comments from critics, which I will address later. The girl discovered the crystal skull by chance in a hidden chamber. As Anna said herself in one of the many interviews, she was bored during a siesta of her father and the workers they hired and was climbing the pyramid, as someone had told her it is possible to see the ocean from it’s top. Looking at the map, this should be correct. On the way up she. saw a shiny object through a crack. She then told her father about it and was later lowered into the room to retrieve the object, since she was the only one who could fit into it.

Since then, many other such crystal skulls have surfaced in various sizes and with different properties, but none are like the Mitchell-Hedges skull. Its very existence proves that it is one of the most important artifacts to have survived into this age of lies. This skull, with its perfection and unique features, surpasses all other crystal skulls by a wide margin. The skull is in two parts, consisting of the skull itself and the fully articulated lower jaw.

One of its most remarkable features is the material it is made of – quartz crystal (rock crystal). Due to its special properties, quartz can only be processed using sophisticated technical methods. In its pure form, transparent quartz crystal has the formula for silicon dioxide – SiO2. Rock crystal fractures conchoidally and splinteringly, and therefore cannot be cleaved. It dissolves only in hydrofluoric acid. The crystal skull was examined for several years by the conservator Frank Dorland. His research findings were fully confirmed by the research department of the electronics company Hewlett Packard (HP). Among other things, Dorland determined that the skull and lower jaw must originally have belonged to a single piece of crystal. According to some “researchers” however, the skull was produced by a “primitive Stone Age people” through centuries of polishing. These researchers’ reasoning is based on the fact that at that time, no one had the technical means to produce this skull through mechanical processing – not even in 1927, the year it was discovered or in the 1940s, the years sceptics said he bought the skull from someone.

One of the special characteristics of quartz crystal is its spiral growth pattern. This creates specific internal axes, familiar to any gem cutter, which are only visible under strong magnifying glasses or polarized light. In other words, if this crystal is worked against its axis, it immediately shatters and is irreparably damaged.
