There are many kilometers of tunnels under the Sahara Desert: from Sebha in Libya to the Ghat oasis near the Algerian border. These tunnels are a huge underground water supply system. Scientists have calculated that the total length of the tunnels is approximately 1,600 km. These tunnels were carved into the rock more than five thousand years ago, which roughly coincides with the emergence of the unified state of Egypt. Underground tunnels of the island of Malta

Many experts claim that the Maltese Hypogeum was built as a temple, a huge underground temple of death and birth with an intricate system of levels, passages, halls and traps. In addition, skeletons of 30 thousand people from the late Neolithic era and various artifacts were discovered in the Hypogeum. Now historians insist on recognizing it as the eighth wonder of the world - after all, judging by this mysterious room, Malta was already long before Stonehenge and the era Egyptian pyramids there was an advanced civilization. Many underground passages and tunnels, including prehistoric catacombs, were later included by knight builders in the fortification system. As for the network of catacombs near Malta, some ancient sources indicate that it branched not only under the surface of the island: the passages went inland and to the sides, continued under the sea and, according to rumors, stretched all the way to Italy. At least in ancient times, in ancient times, many sources pointed to this. Speleologist Pavel Miroshnichenko, a researcher who studies artificial structures, wrote about the existence of a system of global tunnels in Russia in his book “The Legend of LSP”. Drawn by him on the map former USSR the lines of global tunnels went from Crimea through the Caucasus to the well-known Medveditskaya ridge. In each of these places, groups of ufologists, speleologists, and researchers of the unknown discovered fragments of tunnels or mysterious bottomless wells. Since 1997, the Kosmopoisk expedition has carefully studied the well-known Medveditskaya ridge in the Volga region.

Researchers discovered and mapped an extensive network of tunnels stretching for tens of kilometers. The tunnels have a circular cross-section, sometimes oval, with a diameter of 7 to 20 m, maintaining a constant width and direction along the entire length. The tunnels are located at a depth of 6 to 30 meters from the surface of the earth. As you approach the hill on the Medveditskaya ridge, the diameter of the tunnels increases from 20 to 35 meters, and then to 80 m, and already at the hill itself, the diameter of the cavities reaches 120 m, turning under the mountain into a huge hall. Three seven-meter tunnels leave from here at different angles. It seems that the Medveditskaya ridge is a node, a crossroads where tunnels from different regions converge. Researchers suggest that from here you can get not only to the Caucasus and Crimea, but also to the northern regions of Russia, to Novaya Zemlya and further to the North American continent. A bottomless mine with a diameter of about one and a half meters with amazingly smooth edges was discovered under the Black Sea city of Gelendzhik. Experts unanimously say: it was created using technology unknown to people and has existed for hundreds of years. The dungeons of the Urals also keep many secrets. The first dungeons on the territory of Kievan Rus appeared before the 10th century, but all this was amateurish compared to the caves of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra. According to the official version, many kilometers of underground passages, cells, tombs and churches were created as an underground monastery.

Despite the fact that the caves of the Kiev-Pechersk Holy Dormition Lavra have been studied, they keep many secrets. Some corridors have not been used for a very long time due to collapses. This especially applies to the Far Caves, all of whose exits towards the Dnieper have long been abandoned, and in the 1930s they were bricked up and tightly cemented... Also in Ukraine, in the Ternopil region, the second longest cave in the world, “Optimisticheskaya”, is located, not so long discovered by speleologists.

To date, more than 200 kilometers of its passages have been discovered. And it is believed that this is not the limit and perhaps it is connected with other caves, forming a single network. The Gobi caves are also currently under study. Due to its inaccessibility - and the caves are located in the so-called “forbidden territory” associated with Shambhala, the habitat of the highest initiates - the Gobi dungeons have practically not been explored. But this is all just a quick superficial overview. It is simply impossible to even list all the mysterious dungeons and tunnels scattered throughout the world, and, most likely, connected together. The same applies to all the numerous catacombs, which are not just quarries. Their origins go back thousands of years. The catacombs have also not been fully explored and may also be part of a single underground network tunnels. Legends about the inhabitants of the dungeons It is difficult to find a people who do not have legends about creatures living in the darkness of the dungeons. They were much older than the human race and descended from representatives of other civilizations that disappeared from the surface of the earth. They possessed secret knowledge and crafts. The inhabitants of the dungeons, as a rule, were hostile towards people. Therefore, we can assume that fairy tales describe something that really existed, and maybe even exists today. underworld. There are especially many legends about the underground world of Tibet and the Himalayas. Here in the mountains there are tunnels that go deep into the ground. Through them, the “initiate” can travel to the center of the planet and meet with representatives of ancient civilization. Tibetan lamas say that the ruler of the Underground Kingdom is the great King of the World, as he is called in the East. And his kingdom - Agartha, based on the principles of the Golden Age - has existed for at least 60 thousand years. People there know no evil and do not commit crimes. Science reached an unprecedented flourishing there, so the underground people, who have reached incredible heights of knowledge, know no disease and are not afraid of any cataclysms. The King of the World wisely rules not only millions of his own underground subjects, but also secretly the entire population of the surface part of the Earth. He knows all the hidden springs of the universe, he comprehends the soul of every human being and reads the great book of destinies. The kingdom of Agartha stretches underground throughout the planet. There is also an opinion that the peoples of Agartha were forced to switch to underground living after a universal cataclysm (flood) and the submersion of land - the ancient continents that existed on the site of the present oceans. The underground workshops are in full swing with tireless work. Any metals are melted there and products from them are forged. In unknown chariots or other perfect devices, underground inhabitants rush through tunnels built deep underground. The level of technical development of underground inhabitants exceeds the wildest imagination. But not only wise creatures who give advice to the “initiates” live in the underworld of India. Ancient Indian legends tell of the mysterious kingdom of the Nagas, hidden in the depths of the mountains. It is inhabited by snake people who store countless treasures in their caves. Cold-blooded, like snakes, these creatures are incapable of experiencing human feelings. They cannot warm themselves and steal warmth, physical and mental, from other living beings.

Needless to say, the mysterious underground world exists not only in legends and myths? Recently, the number of fans of visiting caves has increased noticeably; adventurers and miners are making their way deeper into the bowels of the Earth, and more and more often they come across traces of underground inhabitants.

Under the ground there is a whole network of tunnels stretching for thousands of kilometers, as well as huge underground cities...

Thus, the English traveler and scientist Percy Fawcett, who visited North America many times, mentioned extensive tunnels located near the Popocatepetl and Inlacuatl volcanoes and in the area of ​​Mount Shasta. From local residents he heard stories about tall, golden-haired people inhabiting the dungeons. The Indians believed that these were the descendants of people who, in ancient times, descended from heaven, failed to adapt to life on the surface and went into underground caves...

Some researchers even managed to see a mysterious underground empire. The university library in Cusco (Peru) contains a report on the disaster that befell a group of researchers from France and the USA in 1952. In the vicinity of the city, they found the entrance to the dungeon and went down there. Not planning to linger, the archaeologists took food for only five days... Of the seven participants, only the Frenchman Philippe Lamontiere made it to the surface, and then after 15 days. He was exhausted, suffered from memory loss and was infected with the bubonic plague... He said that his companions fell into a bottomless abyss. The authorities, fearing the spread of the plague, hastened to block the entrance to the dungeon. The Frenchman died a few days later, and after him there was only an ear of corn made of pure gold, with which he returned from underground.

Civilization Explorer inca dr Raul Rios Centeno tried to repeat the route of the missing expedition. A group of enthusiasts entered the dungeon through a room under the tomb in a dilapidated temple a few kilometers from Cusco. At first they walked along a long, gradually narrowing corridor that resembled a ventilation pipe. Suddenly they noticed that they stopped reflecting infrared rays. Using a spectrograph, the researchers determined that the walls contained large quantities of aluminum. Scientists tried to take a sample, but the casing turned out to be very strong and not a single instrument could take it. Meanwhile, the tunnel became narrower, and when its diameter decreased to 90 cm, the group had to turn back.

IN South America there are even more amazing (practically unexplored) caves connected by endless intricate passages - the so-called chinkan-sy. Hopi Indian legends say that snake-men live in their depths. For some time, by order of the authorities, all entrances to them have been tightly closed with bars: dozens of adventurers have already disappeared without a trace in the chin-kanas. Some tried to enter the caves out of curiosity, others - driven by a thirst for profit (confident that the Incan treasures were hidden there). Few managed to get out of the caves, and even those seemed to have lost their minds, because, according to their stories, in the depths of the Earth they met strange creatures that looked like both a man and a snake.

In North America, in addition to the already mentioned tunnels, there are huge caves. The author of the book about Shambhala, Andrew Thomas, claims that in the mountains of California there are straight, arrow-like underground passages leading to the state of New Mexico. One day, the American military also had to explore mysterious thousand-kilometer tunnels. An underground mine was produced at a test site in Nevada nuclear explosion, and exactly 2 hours later, at a military base in Canada, 2 thousand km away from the site of the explosion, they recorded a radiation level 20 times higher than the norm!

It turned out that next to the Canadian base there is an underground cavity that connects to a huge cave system that penetrates the North American continent.

There are especially many legends about the underground world of Tibet and the Himalayas. Through tunnels going deep into the earth, the “initiate” can supposedly reach the center of the planet and meet representatives of the ancient underground civilization.

But not only wise creatures live in the underworld. Ancient Indian legends tell about the kingdom of the Nagas, hidden in the depths of the mountains, in which the Nagas live - lizard-men. According to Indian belief, they keep countless treasures in their caves. Cold-blooded, like lizards, these creatures are incapable of experiencing human feelings. They cannot warm themselves and therefore steal heat from other creatures.

Deep underground tunnels under the Great Pyramids in Egypt are also known. The winner of the International Chess Tournament S. Tivyakov took a photo in one of the underground galleries under the Pyramid of Khafre. “I managed to capture an “asuri” - a creature from a parallel world,” says the chess player. “The photograph of this creature, invisible to the human eye, is the only one in the world!” Before this, such a creature was found in the samadhi caves of Tibet and the Himalayas.”

Speleologist P. Miroshnichenko wrote about the existence of the tunnel system in the book “The Legend of LSP”. The lines of tunnels he drew on the map went from the Crimea through the Caucasus to the Medveditskaya ridge. In each indicated place, ufologists and speleologists discovered tunnels or mysterious bottomless wells.

For example, tourists who come to admire the beauty of the Marble Cave in Crimea do not suspect that they are in a section of an ancient tunnel that came to the surface as a result of various natural disasters.

About thirty years ago Black Sea coast In the Caucasus, near Gelendzhik, a bottomless mine with a diameter of about 1.5 m was accidentally discovered. Experts say that it has existed for hundreds of years and was created using technology unknown to us. The first attempt to explore the mine ended tragically: a few days after the descent, four of the five expedition members died. The fifth participant, having descended to a depth of 30 m, remained there forever. First, his comrades heard strange sounds, and then a heart-rending scream. The rope first tightened like a string, and then suddenly weakened. We examined the rope - it looked like it had been cut with a sharp knife...

The Medveditskaya Ridge has been studied for many years by expeditions organized by the Kosmopoisk association. The researchers recorded the stories of local residents whose fathers and grandfathers descended into the tunnels, and also used geophysical equipment to prove their existence. Unfortunately, it was not possible to penetrate them, since they were blown up during the Second World War.

But a tunnel stretching from south to east in the region of the Ural Mountains intersects with another, stretching from north to east.

In these places you can hear stories about “wonderful people.” “Divya people,” says the epics common in the Urals, “live in Ural mountains, go out into the world through caves. Their culture is the greatest and the light in the mountains is no worse than the Sun. -The “Wonderful People” are small in stature, very beautiful, with melodious voices, but only a select few can hear them... Sometimes an old man from the “Wonderful People” comes to the square, talks about events and predicts what will happen. An unworthy person hears and sees nothing, but the men in those places know everything..."

Who are they, the inhabitants of the underworld, and why do they avoid contact with us?

Here's the first version. These people are the heirs of the inhabitants of the civilizations of Lemuria, Atlantis or even more ancient ones. During the process of “underground” evolution, the skin has become so sensitive that exposure to light causes skin cancer. Therefore, the descendants of ancient civilizations are forced to spend their entire lives in darkness. According to another version, a long time ago, amazing creatures descended from the heavens onto our planet. They were unable to adapt to life on the surface of the Earth and went into underground caves.

The latest version is associated with ideas about parallel worlds, where creatures live that can easily pass through rock layers.

Tunnel through the planet

In the works of the founder of horror literature, Howard Lovecraft, there are amazing monsters living underground. But if you compare his texts with the stories of half-crazed eyewitnesses who escaped from the caves, a striking similarity in the descriptions strikes the eye.

One cannot help but suspect that Lovecraft once saw snake people and the horror he experienced remained forever in his memory and left an imprint on his life and gloomy work. What is this mysterious world discovered by the science fiction writer?

It is difficult to find a people who do not have legends about creatures living in the darkness of dungeons. They were much older than the human race and descended from dwarfs who disappeared from the surface of the earth. They possessed secret knowledge and crafts. The inhabitants of the dungeons, as a rule, were hostile towards people. Therefore, we can assume that fairy tales describe an underworld that really existed, and perhaps still exists today.
The mysterious underground world exists not only in legends. In recent decades, the number of visitors to the caves has increased markedly. Adventurers and miners are making their way deeper and deeper into the bowels of the Earth, and more and more often they come across traces of the activities of mysterious underground inhabitants. It turned out that beneath us there is a whole network of tunnels, stretching for thousands of kilometers and enveloping the entire Earth in a network, and huge, sometimes even populated underground cities.

There are especially many stories about mysterious South American tunnels. The famous English traveler and scientist Percy Fossett, who visited South America many times, mentioned in his books about extensive caves located near the Popocatepetl and Inlacuatl volcanoes and in the area of ​​Mount Shasta. Some researchers managed to see fragments of this underground empire. Recently, in the university library of the city of Cusco in the Andes, archaeologists discovered a report on the disaster that befell a group of researchers from France and the United States in 1952.

In the vicinity of the city, they found the entrance to the dungeon and began to prepare to descend into it. The archaeologists did not intend to stay there long, so they took food for five days. However, of the seven participants, only one made it to the surface after 15 days - the Frenchman Philippe Lamontiere. He was exhausted, remembered almost nothing, and soon showed signs of the deadly bubonic plague.

But still, it was possible to learn from him that his companions fell into a bottomless abyss. The authorities, fearing the spread of the plague, hastened to block the entrance to the dungeon with a reinforced concrete slab. The Frenchman died a few days later, but an ear of corn made of pure gold that he found underground remained.

Researcher of the Inca civilization, Dr. Raul Rios Centeno, tried to repeat the route of the missing expedition. A group of enthusiasts entered the dungeon through a room located under the tomb of a dilapidated temple a few kilometers from Cusco. First we walked along a long, gradually narrowing corridor, similar to the pipe of a huge ventilation system.

Suddenly the tunnel walls stopped reflecting infrared rays. Using a special spectrograph, the researchers determined that the walls contained large amounts of aluminum. When scientists tried to take a sample from the wall, it turned out that its lining was very strong and no tool could take it. The tunnel continued to narrow, and when its diameter decreased to 90 centimeters, the researchers had to turn back.

In South America there are amazing caves connected by endless intricate passages - the so-called chincanas. Legends of the Hopi Indians say that snake people live in their depths. These caves are practically unexplored. By order of the authorities, all entrances to them are tightly closed with bars. Dozens of adventurers have already disappeared without a trace in the Chinkanas. Some tried to penetrate the dark depths out of curiosity, others - out of thirst for profit: according to legend, the treasures of the Incas were hidden in the chincanas.

Only a few managed to escape from the terrible caves. But these “lucky ones” were forever damaged in their minds. From the incoherent stories of the survivors, it can be understood that they met strange creatures in the depths of the earth. These inhabitants of the underworld were both human and snake-like.

There are pictures of fragments of global dungeons in North America. The author of the book about Shambhala, Andrew Thomas, based on a thorough analysis of the stories of American speleologists, claims that in the mountains of California there are direct underground passages that lead to the state of New Mexico.

Once upon a time, the American military also had to study mysterious thousand-kilometer tunnels. An underground nuclear explosion occurred at a test site in Nevada. Exactly two hours later, at a military base in Canada, 2000 kilometers away from the explosion site, a radiation level was recorded that was 20 times higher than normal. A study conducted by geologists has shown that next to the Canadian base there is an underground cavity that connects to a huge cave system that permeates the North American continent.

There are especially many legends about the underground world of Tibet and the Himalayas. Here in the mountains there are tunnels that go deep into the ground. Through them, the “initiate” can travel to the center of the planet and meet representatives of the ancient underground civilization.

But not only wise creatures who give advice to the “initiates” live in the underworld of India. Ancient Indian legends tell of the mysterious kingdom of the Nagas, hidden in the depths of the mountains. It is inhabited by Nanas - snake people who store countless treasures in their caves. Cold-blooded, like snakes, these creatures are incapable of experiencing human feelings. They cannot warm themselves and steal warmth, physical and mental, from other living beings.

The existence of a system of global tunnels in Russia was written in his book “The Legend of LSP” by spelestologist Pavel Miroshnichenko, a researcher who studies artificial structures. The lines of global tunnels he drew on the map of the former USSR went from Crimea through the Caucasus to the well-known Medveditskaya ridge. In each of these places, groups of ufologists, speleologists, and researchers of the unknown discovered fragments of tunnels or mysterious bottomless wells.

The Medveditskaya Ridge has been studied for many years by expeditions organized by the Kosmopoisk association. The researchers not only managed to record the stories of local residents, but also used geophysical equipment to prove the reality of the existence of the dungeons. Unfortunately, after World War II, the mouths of the tunnels were blown up.

A sublatitudinal tunnel stretching from Crimea to the east in the region of the Ural Mountains intersects with another one stretching from north to east. It is along this tunnel that you can hear stories about “wonderful people” who came out to local residents at the beginning of the last century. “Wonderful people,” as told in epics common in the Urals, “live in the Ural Mountains and have exits to the world through caves. Their culture is great. The “Wonderful People” are small in stature, very beautiful and have a pleasant voice, but only a select few can hear them... An old man from the “Wonderful People” comes to the square and predicts what will happen. An unworthy person hears and sees nothing, but the men in those places know everything that the Bolsheviks are hiding.”

Who are they, the inhabitants of the underworld?

A long time ago, amazing creatures descended from the heavens onto our planet. They taught the locals a lot, but were unable to adapt to life on the surface of the Earth and went into underground caves. A similar point of view is shared by the well-known American writer and ufologist Lovecraft.

In one of his works, he writes that aliens came “to Earth from deep space thousands of years ago and settled in the depths, because earth's surface turned out to be unsuitable for them." Long before modern theories about the cosmic origin of human civilization, about the landing of aliens on Earth, Lovecraft described creatures of an extraterrestrial race.

Sometimes completely corporeal spirits of the dungeon come into contact with people. For some reason, it is generally accepted that unidentified flying objects visiting our planet come from distant galaxies.
As scientists have found out, in some cases it would be more correct to call aliens “subplanetaries”, since, apparently, they live very close - below us, in the bowels of the Earth...

In 2007, a group of five speleologists explored one of the Crimean caves. Engineer Sukhotin, due to a slight illness, remained in an intermediate camp at a depth of about 300 meters. Getting ready to have a snack, he lit a candle, took out some food, and then headed to the far corner, where a small waterfall flowed down the wall with a slight noise to get water. He took a flashlight with him, but did not light it, saving batteries. Having filled the pot with water, Sukhotin turned around and froze in a daze: near the makeshift table he had left with a burning candle, several strange creatures that resembled monkeys covered with long hair had gathered in a circle. In the darkness it was not clear whether they were sitting on the floor of the cave or standing - the candle illuminated only the upper part of their bodies.

Having taken several hesitant steps towards the uninvited guests, the speleologist clinked his kettle. The creatures unanimously turned their faces in his direction with large hollows of dark eyes. After that, the man lit the flashlight he was holding in his hand. The next moment there was no one in the cone of light...

“Glitches have begun,” Sukhotin decided. But when I approached the table, I discovered that all the food, including a pack of tea, had disappeared...

Similar creatures are sometimes found in underground passages and caves in the Leningrad region. Here, for example, is a small excerpt from the book of the famous Gatchina speleologist Pavel Miroshnichenko “The Legend of LSP”:

“Having entered the cave, he shook himself off the sand for a long time, then cleaned his shovel. Having finished cleaning, he looked at us and asked:

– Do you know what shubin is?

- Shubin?

- Shubin, but with a small letter.

This was said with such an ominous intonation that it chilled me. According to the stories of miners, this is the one who causes collapses in mines and quarries and appears in the guise of an old man dressed in a fur coat.”

They have big dark eyes

At the end of the 60s of the last century, a certain Den Henrikson went with his comrades on a hike in the mountains. Having fallen behind the squad, he noticed two human figures to the side. Henrikson noticed that they were “kind of strange”: pale faces, black overalls, a jumping gait and “empty, lifeless eyes.” Approaching the young man, these people demanded that he come with them. Dan refused and tried to run away, but suddenly felt dizzy and nauseous. Everything swam before his eyes, and he began to lose consciousness. But something still remained in his memory. He came to his senses in a dark room. Strange creatures were moving around. Dan remembered that they had huge black eyes and four-fingered hands. Then another loss of consciousness followed.

A young man woke up next to a small cave, got up with difficulty and shouted for help. The people who came turned out to be police officers who, at the request of friends, had been unsuccessfully trying for three days to find Den Henrikson, who had disappeared without a trace.

The young man was taken to the hospital; journalists and ufologists were extremely interested in his story. Everyone was sure that Henrikson was the victim of alien abduction. True, the “victim” himself claimed that he had the feeling that he was “somewhere underground.”

Deeper and deeper - into the abyss

In 1980, off the coast of California, a huge hollow space was discovered under the ocean floor using echolocators. After interviewing sailors, scientists found that in this place at the bottom there are mysterious glows, and submarine crews hear strange sounds reminiscent of buzzing and humming.

Then one of the California newspapers published an interview with the former commander of the submarine, John Williams. According to him, he once observed a strange object off the coast of California, which “separated from the bottom and began to rise to the surface of the ocean at high speed.” It resembled a huge horseshoe, with small lights glowing along the edges.

Nuclear tests carried out at a famous test site in Nevada once turned out to be unexpected: a bomb was detonated deep underground, and two hours later in Canada, at one of the military bases, a radiation level was recorded that was 20 times higher than usual!

It turned out that next to the Canadian military base there is a so-called “underground grotto”, well known to speleologists. It appears to be part of a huge underground system of caves and other cavities.

According to one of the members of the Geological Society of America, Samuel Kern, "only a negligible fraction of all existing underground caves have been described and mapped."

According to Christian religious tradition, the underworld is inhabited by various demons and evil spirits. Whether this is true or not has not been established for certain, but many peoples have their own underground secrets. For example, in Mexico there is a mysterious cave called Sotano de las Golondrinas. This is a real abyss, the bottom of which is a labyrinth of various “rooms”, “passages” and “tunnels”, diverging at a kilometer depth in different directions. Locals They are wildly afraid of this place, calling it “the abode of spirits.”

"Sinegorye" (Chelyabinsk)

The theory about ancient underground tunnels, shrouding almost the entire globe in a web, was born thanks to an event that happened in 2003 in the vicinity of Solnechnogorsk near Moscow. In Bottomless Lake, a local driver discovered a US Navy life jacket, which, judging by the identification inscription, belonged to American sailor Sam Belovsky, who served on the destroyer Cowell. On October 12, 2000, the destroyer was blown up by terrorists, leaving four sailors dead and ten, including Sam, missing. The tragedy occurred in the port of Aden.

As a result of checking the accuracy of the information, it was found that the life jacket really belonged to Sam Belovsky. But how was this thing able to get from the waters of the Indian Ocean to the waters of a lake lost in the outback of central Russia, covering a distance of 4,000 kilometers, and this in a straight line? It was then that an incredible version arose about the existence of ancient underground tunnels connecting remote areas of the Earth’s continents. But who laid these underground paths, when and for what purpose remains a mystery of history. More than once, more than one researcher has drawn attention to the existence, along with subway lines, mine workings and natural caves, of underground cavities created by ancient civilizations, our predecessors, so to speak. We are talking not only about giant halls, the mechanical processing of the walls of which is almost completely hidden by secondary natural processes (stalactites and stalagmites, sagging and cracks). In addition to them, there are also linear structures - ancient tunnels. Interestingly, at the beginning of this century, the frequency of finds of fragments of such “crossings” in different parts of our planet increased significantly.

In order to identify ancient tunnels, comprehensive geological knowledge is required about the natural processes of transformation of the earth's crust and underground cavities that occur during the development of the planet, as well as about the technique of conducting man-made underground work. However, identification is quite real. First of all, ancient tunnels differ from objects natural origin and modern objects constructed underground, more precise processing of walls (mostly the walls of the cavities are melted), clear direction and orientation.
The colossal dimensions of the ancient tunnels and their extreme antiquity, still inaccessible to human understanding, are also bewildering. No one has announced the approximate date of their appearance, but it can be assumed that the ancient tunnels were built at different times. Let's look at some actually available information about ancient underground workings and tunnels.

Crimean peninsula dotted with caves, but one of the most popular is the Marble Cave, rising 900 meters above sea level in the Chatyr-Dag mountain range. Descending into the cave, many tourists and speleologists are greeted by a huge twenty-meter hall in the form of a pipe. On this moment The hall is half filled with stone blocks that collapsed during earthquakes and filled with karst deposits. Behind the magnificence of the stalactites descending towards the stalagmites, few people notice the fact that the huge “corridor” is actually an ancient tunnel with smooth processed walls, laid deep into the mountain range towards the sea.

The tunnel walls are not damaged by erosion and do not have karst caverns. We can see part of a destroyed underground structure, starting at a kilometer altitude from the level of the Black Sea and going into nowhere.

If we take into account that the Black Sea depression was formed as a result of the fall of a large asteroid (this happened about 30 million years ago), which destroyed most of the Crimean mountains, then the assumption that the Marble Cave is a preserved part of an ancient tunnel is quite appropriate. The tunnel itself cut through the entire mountain range, which is about 30 million years old, but was destroyed by an asteroid.

Crimean speleologists managed to discover a huge cavity under mountain peak Ai-Petri and ancient tunnels connecting the Crimean Peninsula and the Caucasus.

In turn, ufologists of the Caucasus region discovered a network of tunnels under the Uvarov ridge, located opposite Mount Arus. Two of them deserve special attention. The direction of one of the ancient tunnels found is the Crimean Peninsula. The other stretched to the Volga region through Krasnodar, Yeisk and Rostov-on-Don. During the expedition in the Krasnodar region, a branch from the main branch was also recorded, directed to the Caspian Sea. However, the expedition members did not provide a more detailed report.

In the Volga region, since 1997, Kosmopoisk expeditions have been carried out, which examine in detail the famous Medveditskaya ridge. Tens of kilometers of a branched network of tunnels have already been discovered, which have a round, less often oval, shape in cross-section. The diameter of the “underground corridors” ranges from 7 to 20 meters, while the width is maintained throughout the entire length. In addition, the direction from the surface also changes from 6 meters to 30 meters deep into the mountain range. Approaching the hill itself, the diameter of the ancient tunnels gradually increases from 22 to 80 meters, and already directly at the hill itself it is 120 meters. Under the mountain, the cavities turn into a huge hall, from which, having different directions, there are three tunnels, each seven meters in diameter.

It becomes obvious that Medveditskaya Gora is a junction station of the “ancient metro”, in which ancient tunnels from different regions converge. From here you can get to the Caucasus, Crimea, northern Russia, and then through Novaya Zemlya to North America.

Some ufologists are confident that the tunnels are still used today as transport routes by UFO vehicles, although it is not at all necessary to attribute authorship to the latter. P. Miroshnichenko in his book “The Legend of LSP” claims that all of Russia, including the territory of Crimea, the Far East, the Urals, Altai and Siberia is dotted with ancient tunnels. All that’s left to do is discover and explore them.

The Caucasus can also boast of the presence of mysterious mine tunnels. We are talking about a gorge near Gelendzhik, where there is a one and a half meter, completely straight shaft, going strictly vertically to a depth of more than a hundred meters, with smooth, as if polished walls. The nature of the treatment of the walls suggests that they were affected both mechanically and thermally at the same time. As a result, a very durable layer, 1 - 1.5 mm thick, was formed on the surface, which cannot be duplicated even with the help of modern high-tech devices. Among other things, increased background radiation was recorded in the mine. It is likely that this vertical branch is connected to a horizontal ancient tunnel that leads to the Medvedkova ridge in the Volga region.

To date, materials have already been declassified regarding the construction in the 1950s of a tunnel across the Tatar Strait, which would have connected the mainland with the island of Sakhalin. In the post-war years, the resolution of the USSR Council of Ministers on the construction railway was classified as “secret”, but L.S. Berman, a doctor of physical and mathematical sciences who worked there at that time, said in 1991 that the builders were primarily engaged not in construction, but in the restoration of already built ancient tunnels, built taking into account all the geological features of the bottom of the strait. The builders also found strange objects, incomprehensible mechanisms and fossilized remains of animals, which immediately disappeared into secret bases. It is possible that this ancient tunnel stretches to Japan through the island of Sakhalin.

From the expanses of Russia we will move to the expanses of Poland and Slovakia, namely to the Western Beskydy mountain range to their highest point - Babia Gora. Residents of the surrounding villages have kept secrets associated with this mountain since ancient times.

One of the guards said that in the 60s of the last century, he and his father, and at his insistence, went to the mountains. There, at an altitude of 600 meters, they moved aside a protruding rock that hid the entrance to the tunnel. The tunnel was so high that not only a horse and cart, but also an entire train could easily enter there. The oval cavity was dry, and its walls resembled glass, they were so smooth. Having walked along the passage, father and son found themselves in a spacious barrel-shaped room, from which emerged several tunnels of different cross-sectional shapes (triangular and round).

From my father’s words it followed that through ancient tunnels you can get to different parts of the planet. Through the left tunnel you can get to Germany, England and America. The right one leads to the territory of Russia, the Caucasus, China and Japan, and then to the American continent, where it meets the left tunnel.
It remains a mystery who built the tunnels and for what purpose. But it is absolutely clear that the creatures that lived on our planet millions of years ago and, perhaps, hiding in the depths to this day, had deeper knowledge than knowledge about semiconductors, D226 diodes, their characteristics, operating and storage conditions. And this knowledge has not yet been revealed to us.

There is a junction station in the Western Beskids, from which several tunnels depart, connecting on the territory of the American continent. But these are not the only ancient underground highways leading to America. Today, ufologists know about ancient tunnels built under the North and South Poles of the Earth. Each tunnel has junction stations similar to the one found in the Beskids. There is information that underground cavities are still used by UFO devices.

English miners, while digging a tunnel for economic needs, heard strange sounds, similar to the sounds of working mechanisms, coming from below. Having broken through the stone wall, the miners saw a staircase leading into a well shaft, from where incomprehensible sounds were heard with even greater force. ABOUT further development no further events were reported. But, probably, the discovered vertical shaft is part of a horizontal ancient tunnel leading to Germany. And the accompanying sounds indicate its current use.

The American continent is no exception. On the contrary, this territory boasts a large number of horizontal and vertical shafts, the walls of which are also melted and polished. The famous American researcher Andrew Thomas is confident that straight, directed ancient tunnels criss-crossed the entire continent like Swiss cheese.

One of the so-called intercontinental hubs, connecting several mines leading to the states of California and New Mexico, is located under Mount Shasta. Their existence is confirmed by the situation experienced by the spouses Iris and Nick Marall. In the mountainous area of ​​Caso Diablo, located near the city of Bishop, the couple entered a cave with a perfectly smooth floor and walls. The cave was illuminated by weak rays of light penetrating from holes in one of the walls. Then the cave was filled with the sounds of a working mechanism, and the couple left it in a hurry. It is quite possible that they were lucky enough to visit one of the active ancient tunnels.

Not far from the coast of the same California in 1980, an impressively sized cavity was discovered, penetrating several hundred meters into the continent, which can claim the status of a junction station.

The existence of tunnels is confirmed by the unexpected results of deep-sea nuclear tests that took place in Nevada. Two hours after the tests at a military base in Canada (at a distance of 2000 kilometers), a jump in background radiation 20 times higher than normal was recorded. This happened because next to the military base there was a cave connected to the local network of caves and ancient tunnels of the American continent.

Fast forward to Idaho, where anthropologist James McKean was studying a large tunnel in the rocks. Having walked several hundred meters deep into the cave, the scientist was stopped by the unbearable sulfur stench and human remains. In addition to this terrible picture, the researcher heard a strange noise coming from the depths of the tunnel. The natural reaction to what he saw was to stop exploring the cave.

One of the most sparsely populated areas of Mexico hides the cave of Satano de las Golondrinas. Judging by its size (about a kilometer deep and several hundred meters wide), the condition of the processed steep walls and the bottom from which ancient tunnels diverge in different directions, it may well exist as a junction station in a network of intercontinental underground tunnels.

From the expanses of North America we will move to the territory of South America, where no less ancient underground tunnels have been dug. Thus, in the course of recent research conducted by Professor Eric von Däniken, a network of underground tunnels stretching for many kilometers was identified under the surface of the Nazca Desert. An important fact: clean water flows through them to this day.

In 1965, the Ecuadorian province of Morona-Santiago attracted researcher Juan Moritz, and for good reason. The scientist was able to discover and map a hitherto unknown network of ancient underground tunnels stretching for hundreds of kilometers. Many facts indicate that these multi-kilometer cavities are not the result of natural processes.

Firstly, the entrance to the system looks more like a neatly cut opening for a barn door. By successively descending onto horizontal platforms, you can reach a maximum cavity depth of 230 meters. At this depth there are rectangular “highways” in cross-section, which have turns at right angles. Secondly, here we are faced with the same smooth-glossy wall treatment. Thirdly, huge rooms and ventilation shafts, the diameter of which varies within 70 centimeters, are located in strict periodicity.

In the center of one of these gigantic halls there are structures that, according to scientists, resemble seven thrones around a table, the so-called “throne seat.” Next to him were large sizes golden figurines of elephants, lions, fossil lizards, jaguars, wolves, bison and even snails. In the same “throne” room, a “library” was kept, consisting of thousands of metal plates dotted with unknown signs. It is unknown whether any attempts were made to decipher the symbols, but each of these plates was stamped in a special way.

The hall in the discovered ancient tunnels resembled a golden treasury containing a large number of gold items. On its smooth walls there were images of ancient dinosaurs. Some plates were decorated with images of pyramids. As in the underground tunnels of the ancient Mayans, here you can find adjacent symbols of pyramids and flying kites. In addition to these images, the plates conveyed some astronomical concepts and ideas of space exploration.

From these sensational discoveries one can only judge who their builders were, who had so much knowledge and lived in the era of dinosaurs.

A similar find interested scientists in 1976. Then, on the nearby territory of Los Tayos, an Anglo-Ecuadorian expedition discovered several rooms in another ancient underground tunnel. In the first, similar to the one described earlier, there was a table surrounded by chairs with two-meter backs. The second one played the role of a “library”: a long hall, the walls of which were filled with shelves with ancient books (four-hundred-sheet folios, each leaf of which was made of pure gold and covered with unknown symbols).

It is safe to say that the ancient halls, as well as the tunnels, were used by the creators not only as a means of communication, but also as a repository of important and, of course, valuable information.

The next junction of the ancient tunnel system was discovered by an expedition of speleologists in Peru in 1971. At a depth of one hundred meters, scientists discovered a hall with already familiar polished walls, on which one could see symbols similar to hieroglyphs. And, as is typical for junction stations, numerous cavities diverged from it in different directions, some of which lead to the sea and extend further under the seabed.

On the other side, already on the territory of Argentina, in the section of the tunnel chain from La Poma to Cayafate, an increased background radiation and high rates of soil electrification are observed, at the same time completely uncharacteristic microwave radiation and vibrations. Such data were recorded thanks to research by scientists at the Biophysical Institute conducted in 2003. Omar Jose and Jorge Dilletaina are confident that what is happening is a man-made phenomenon, and the reason for its occurrence is the work of unknown devices, carried out at a depth of many kilometers. It is quite possible to assume that this section of ancient tunnels is used as a working to this day.
