10,000-year-old rock paintings depicting aliens and UFOs found in Chhattisgarh
CHARAMA, Chhattisgarh, India – The Chhattisgarh state department of archaeology and culture plans to seek help from NASA and ISRO regarding the 10,000-year-old rock paintings depicting aliens and UFOs in the Charama region.
According to archaeologist J. R. Bhagat, these paintings depict aliens like those shown in Hollywood movies. Located about 80 miles from Raipur, the caves are part of the villages Chandeli and Gotitola.
"The findings suggest humans in prehistoric times may have seen or imagined beings from other planets which still create curiosity among people and researchers. Extensive research is required and Chhattisgarh presently doesn't have any such expert who could give clarity on the subject," Bhagat told TOI.
There are several beliefs among locals in these villages. While few worship the paintings, others narrate stories they have heard from ancestors about "rohela people" – the small sized ones – who used to land from the sky in a round shaped flying object and take away one or two persons of the village who never returned.
"The paintings are done in natural colors that have hardly faded despite the years. The strangely carved figures are seen holding weapon-like objects and do not have clear features. Specifically, the nose and mouth are missing. In a few pictures, they are even shown wearing space suits. We can't refute the possibility of imagination by prehistoric men ... The fan-like antenna and three legs of the vehicle's stand clearly show a similarity to UFO type craft," he said.
Other archaeologists have also been consulted for further verification.
