300 Million Year Old Screw Found In A Rock - Proof Ancient Aliens Lived On Earth

So scientists (yes them guy's that don't have faith in belief or gut feelings) have categorically and unreservedly given their own high five, pat on the back and personal assurances that this is 65% not an ancient screw! They are unreservedly and unapologetic plus full of enthusiasm for their scientific fact's that it might be a sea creature? Mhh?

So there you go then, turn the computer off and get your head down on the pillow. End of, I'm not going to give a real scientific approach and a scientific reasoning, because It's been done... Or has it? Not for me, this has not even been decided one way or another? It could well be a part of an ancient advanced civilisation.

• 'Screw' was found in a stone by UFO researchers in Kaluga region, Russia
• The unusual object is said to be 300 million years old
• Some think it's proof aliens used to live on Earth or a radical civilisation
• But it's more likely to be a fossilised sea creature called a Crinoid

An object that appears to be a screw fixed inside a rock has captured the world's attention since it was found in the 1990s, but the debate rages on about what it really is. Russian researchers believe the unusual object is 300 million years old, leading some people to claim that it may be proof of a highly advanced lost human civilization, or even the work of aliens. However, experts suggest that there may be a more earthly answer that the ‘screw’ is in fact a fossilized sea creature.

The researchers stumbled across the ‘screw’ after searching the Kaluga region after an asteroid strike occurred there, Ancient Code reported. The ‘screw’ measures an inch (2cm) long and was collected by a UFO and paranormal research team called the Kosmopoisk Group. They claim that the stone is between 300 and 320 million years old and after X-raying it, believe there is another hidden ‘screw’ inside the stone.

But more conventional scientists have not got a look at the object, so have had to base their speculation on grainy pictures posted online. The Kosmopoisk Group has not said what the screw is made of, or given any detailed information about it. The self-styled group, which is also known as Spacesearch and the Russian Scientific Organisation, conducts expeditions to sites that are believed to have extraterrestrial activity or unusual creatures - and has a mixed reputation.

The screw-like shape may actually be the reversed-shape of the creature, which gradually dissolved while the rock formed around it. Fossils of Jurassic crinoids collected in Israel are pictured.

The leading hypothesis from experts who have seen photos of the stone is that the ‘screw' is actually the remains of an ancient sea creature called a crinoid. The screw-like shape may actually be the reversed-shape of the creature, which gradually dissolved while the rock formed around it. Some 600 species of Crinoids are now extinct but the creatures live on in different forms in modern seas.

They have five arms to snatch passing prey and a hidden mouth on the top. It is thought that the fossilized creature in the mysterious rock is a form of ‘sea lily’ – a type of crinoid that grew a stalk when it became an adult, to tether itself to the seabed. Crinoids were extremely common millions of years ago, and countless fossils have been found, some segments of which do resemble screws.

Russian researchers have dated the unusual 'screw' to 300 million years old, leading some people to claim that it may be proof of a highly advanced lost human civilization, or even the work of aliens.

Researchers stumbled across the ‘screw’ after searching the Kaluga region after an asteroid strike occurred there. The ‘screw’ measures an inch (2cm) long and was collected by a UFO and paranormal research team called the Kosmopoisk Group.

However, some say that the stalks of crinoids were typically much smaller than the ‘screw’, with slightly different markings, and have discarded the theory. More far-fetched theories include that the 'screw' is the remains of an ancient form of technology that proves aliens lived on Earth millions of years ago, or that our ancestors were far more advanced than we think.

Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual told MailOnline: ‘Lots of out-of-place artifacts have been reported, such as nails or even tools embedded in ancient stone. 'Some of these reports are…misinterpretations of natural formations. ‘In this case skeptics claim the screw is nothing more than the fossilized remains of a crinoid marine animal, while believers note that the screw is very different from the surrounding fossil evidence.

‘It would be great to think we could find such ancient evidence of a spaceship visiting us so long ago, but we have to consider whether extra-terrestrial spacecraft builders would use screws in the construction of their craft. ‘It also seems that this story is probably a hoax that is being spread by the internet, and reflects our desire to believe that extra-terrestrials have visited us in the past and are still visiting us today in what we now call UFOs.’
