When excavating a tomb in Rome, it was discovered that a 1,500-year-old lamp did not turn off. So what is the mystery behind?

Mysterious source of energy

In 1845, archaeologists discovered the coffin of an ancient young woman near Rome. When the coffin was opened, her entire body was not rotting and was intact like a living person. Her face just looked like she was sleeping. Not only that, archaeologists were frightened when they saw an ancient lamp still shining in the coffin.

Why can an ancient lamp stay on for 1,500 hours but not go out? Where is the light source of these antique lamps? Obviously, this lamp is not an oil lamp. Some people think that this forever bright lamp is an old electric lamp. But electric lights are a product of modern civilization. Ancient people could not create electrical devices.

Did you know that inside the pyramids of ancient Egypt 4,600 years ago there are very beautiful sculptural frescoes. Since the tombs and corridors are so dark, these exquisite works of art must be carved and painted in bright light.

After analyzing the amount of dust accumulated in the tower for 4,600 years with the most advanced equipment, the scientists found that there was no black smoke and smoky oil particles in the dust, and no traces of torch use were found. or oil lamps. It can be seen that the ancient Egyptian artisans absolutely did not use torches or oil lamps for lighting when carving, writing, and painting in the pyramid.

The appearance of the ancient dynamo.

In the middle of the summer of 1936, when a group of railway workers paved the road in the village of Rabua, outside Baghdad, the Iraqi capital accidentally unearthed an ancient tomb made of giant stone slabs. Inside the tomb is a coffin. Iraqi archaeologists have come to excavate and discovered a large amount of gold and silver and valuable burial items from the ancient Persian period from 248 to 226 BC.

German archaeologist Wali Haram, who was once curator of the Iraq Museum, said that while cleaning up unearthed cultural relics, he discovered a milky white clay vase 15 cm high and filled with asphalt. After long research, Wali believes that the vase is an ancient chemical battery. As long as you pour some acid or alkaline water into the tank, it can generate electricity.

Is Wali's inference correct? German scholar Manlyn Ajbalich decided to make an ancient battery as described by Wali to verify. He made copper pipes and ceramic pots according to the specifications of the excavated objects and assembled them into ancient batteries. Then he poured fresh grape juice into the battery, the voltmeter's needle immediately signaled a voltage of half a volt.

After many tests, it was finally confirmed that this ancient ceramic vase more than 2,000 years ago could generate electricity. People used this ancient generator to glow or electrolyze gold.
