20 ancient, unexplained CAVE paintings


Chhattisgarh is a landlocked state in Central India. It is the ninth largest state by area, and with a population of roughly 30 million, the 17th most populous [14]. It borders seven states:
  1. Uttar Pradesh to the north,
  2. Madhya Pradesh to the northwest,
  3. Maharashtra to the southwest,
  4. Jharkhand to the northeast,
  5. Odisha to the east,
  6. Andhra Pradesh and
  7. Telangana to the south [15].
Formerly a part of Madhya Pradesh, it was granted statehood on Nov. 1, 2000, with Raipur as the designated state capital [16]. The Sitabenga caves in Chhattisgarh, one of the earliest examples of theatre architecture in India, are dated to the Mauryan period of 3rd century BCE. More

Centuries old Mexican cave art

Cave unexplored for 500 years reveals previously unknown Mesoamerican people 
(Discovery Future) Oct. 14, 2025: Deep within the remote mountains of Guerrero, Mexico, a team of explorers stumbled upon what they first thought was trash—only to discover it was a 500-year-old treasure hidden in the depths of a cave no human had entered for centuries. Inside Tlayócoc, the “Cave of Badgers,” archeologists uncovered 14 extraordinary artifacts crafted by a previously unknown culture now called the Tlacotepehua

 These objects—shell bracelets, stone disks, and carbonized wood—reveal a lost people who likely practiced agriculture, held sacred cave rituals, and possessed their own spiritual and artistic traditions. This discovery sheds light on a forgotten civilization that thrived in the shadow of great Mesoamerican powers like the Aztec and Maya.
  • Who were the Tlacotepehua?
  • Why did they vanish?
  • And what do their sacred offerings tell us about their beliefs, their environment, and their place in history?
Join as we explore how this cave discovery is rewriting what we know about pre-Hispanic (pre-Columbus) Mexico, uncovering the mysteries of a people lost to time.
