Cornerstone Mysteries Humanity Took Too Long to Solve

Science showed up late but with facts.

By Sabrina Fernandez

Published 1 week ago in Wow

People love a good mystery. They question every clue or piece of information and second-guess everything they know, all for the fun of solving a puzzle. 


Unfortunately, when answers don’t come easily, imagination fills the gaps, and that’s how wild theories start to sound pretty convincing to everyone else. Some even grow into rumors that last a lifetime.


But after years of trial and error and looking for answers, many of the world’s most famous “unsolved” puzzles turned out to be not that complicated at all. At least the creativity along the way was worth it.
