world's oldest wooden statue.Etchings on haunting seven-faced Shigir Idol 'could hold a message to modern man' - تمثال خشبى أقدم من الأهرامات يروى قصة خلق العالم


علماء ألمان اكتشفوا تمثالا خشبيا في سيبريا يبلغ عمره 9 آلاف و500 عام منقوش عليه ما يعتقد العلماء أنه رسالة موجهة للإنسان المعاصر وأنه يخبر البشرية على أصل نشأة العالم.


التمثال المعروف بـ "المعبود شيجا" يعتقد العلماء أن الرموز الخاصة به ستفك في أواخر فبراير وأوائل شهر مارس، وأضاف العلماء أن التمثال أقدم من الأهرامات ونصب ستونهنج الشهير ببريطانيا، كما أنه يبدو كما لو كان محفوظا في كبسولة زمنية.


أكدت الأكاديمية الروسية أنه أقدم تمثال بالعالم ويتميز بالندرة والتعقيد، ويبلغ طول التمثال 2.8 متر بعد أن كان 5.5 أمتار قبل الاضطرابات السياسية في روسيا بالقرن العشرين.

 Scientists in Germany are closer to dating an ancient wooden statue which they say contains secret encrypted codes written around 9,500 years ago - possibly the oldest on the planet.

 
The haunting Shigir Idol is twice as old as the Egyptian pyramids and was preserved 'as if in a time capsule' in a peat bog on the western fringes of Siberia.

Now Russian experts say the remarkable relic contains encoded information on the 'creation of the world' - a message to modern man from the Mesolithic era of the Stone Age.

'German scientists are now close to a precise dating - within five decades - of the remarkable artifact, which is a stunning example of ancient man's creativity,' reported The Siberian Times

'The results are likely to be known in late February or early March.'

The idol, 'scraped' using a 'stone spoon' from larch timber, is around 4,000 to 5,000 years older than Britain's world famous Stonehenge monument.

It stands 9.2ft (2.8 metres) in height but originally was 17.4ft (5.3 metres) tall, as high as a two storey house.
Almost 6.5ft (2 metres) of the artefact went missing during Russian's 20th century political turmoil, though Siberian archaeologist Vladimir Tolmachev drew images of all the pieces.

German pre-historian Professor Thomas Terberger said: 'There is no such ancient sculpture in the whole of Europe.

'Studying this Idol is a dream come true.'

Professor Mikhail Zhilin, leading researcher of the Russian Academy of Sciences' Institute of Archeology, explained: 'We study the Idol with a feeling of awe.

'This is a masterpiece, carrying gigantic emotional value and force.

'It is a unique sculpture, there is nothing else in the world like this. It is very alive, and very complicated at the same time.

'The ornament is covered with nothing but encrypted information. People were passing on knowledge with the help of the Idol.'

While the messages remain 'an utter mystery to modern man', the Russian academic said its creators 'lived in total harmony with the world, had advanced intellectual development, and a complicated spiritual world'.

Svetlana Savchenko, chief keeper of Shigir Idol at Yekaterinburg History Museum, concludes that 'a straight line could denote land, or horizon - the boundary between earth and sky, water and sky, or the borderline between the worlds.

'A wavy line or zigzag symbolised the watery element, snake, lizard, or determined a certain border.

'In addition, the zigzag signaled danger, like a pike. Cross, rhombus, square, circle depicted the fire or the sun, and so on.'


THE SHIGIR IDOL: KEY FACTS

The Shigir Idol is thought to be the most ancient wooden sculpture in the world.

The haunting idol is twice as old as the Egypian pyramids and was preserved 'as if in a time capsule' in a peat bog

It was made during the Mesolithic period, around 7,500 BCE but was only discovered in 1890 in Kirovgrad, Sverdlovsk region, in the Ural Mountains.

It stands 9.2ft (2.8 metres) in height but originally was 17.4ft (5.3 metres) tall, as high as a two storey house.

Almost 6.5ft (2 metres) of the artefact went missing during Russian's 20th century political turmoil, though Siberian archaeologist Vladimir Tolmachev drew images of all the pieces.

The messages carved into the ornament 'remain 'an utter mystery to modern man', according to experts.

Some say the straight lines could denote land, or horizon - the boundary between earth and sky, water and sky, or the borderline between the worlds.

A wavy line or zigzag symbolised the watery element, snake, lizard, or determined a certain border.

 But the marks could have multiple meanings for the ancient statue-makers who gave the idol seven faces, only one of which is three-dimensional.

The faces may be images of spirits that inhabited the human world in ancient times.

But the marks could have multiple meanings for the ancient statue-makers who gave the idol seven faces, only one of which is three-dimensional.

'If these are images of spirits that inhabited the human world in ancient times, the vertical position of figures (one above the other) probably relate to their hierarchy,' said author Petr Zolin.

'Images on the front and back planes of the Idol, possibly indicate that they belong to different worlds.

'If there are depicted myths about the origin of humans and the world, the vertical arrangement of the images may reflect the sequence of events. Ornaments can be special signs which mark something as significant.'

Mr Savchenko argues that the idol tells the story of the 'creation of the world' as understood by Mesolithic man.

Professor Uwe Hoysner, from Berlin Archaeological Institute added: 'The idol is carved from larch, which, as we see by the annual rings, was at least 159 years old.

'The samples we selected contain important information about the isotopes that correspond to the time when the tree grew.'

The peat protected the larch wood. The Idol was found in 1890 in Kirovgrad, Sverdlovsk region, in the Ural Mountains.
