Russian writers visited the capital of Hyperborea. Kovdor - the capital of Hyperborea

Reputable archaeologists and historians are asked to treat this phrase without skepticism. " Kovdor - the capital of Hyperborea"Is not an attempt to expose one of the most ancient legends on the planet, this is a new cultural and historical project that should attract tourists to most western city Murmansk region and to answer the question of where people came to the northern lands six thousand years ago. Ancient minds considered the legendary country to be the habitat of either the titans, or the dolphs, or the Pelasgians. Modern minds are creating an intelligent and promising small town tourism brand based on a beautiful myth. Why not?

We can say that the start of a new project “ Kovdor - the capital of Hyperborea”Was laid in the 90s of the last century, when ancient runes with the image of a snake biting its own tail were accidentally discovered on stones in the city park. The name of the city also comes from the ancient Sami word for "snake", so it was unconditionally chosen as the main symbol of the project. Later, a seid was found near Kovdor and stone structures reminding leftovers ancient city... Over the past summer, about two dozen artifacts have been added to the finds. While scientists are puzzling over the origin of these objects, a new one will appear near Kovdor. hyperborean park, where copies of all finds will be presented. New research will help replenish the storerooms and expositions of the local museum of local lore, and the first tourist routes"In the footsteps of the mysterious preglacial civilization" is already being laid both in Kovdor itself and in the suburbs. The next step is the development of souvenir products, the construction of a tourist base and the production of water from local wells.

A good cultural and mystical idea, with a worthy implementation, is capable of pulling people to little-known places that today can hardly be called tourist. There are many such examples in the world when it was tourists who breathed life into a dying old monotown, especially in Europe. Perhaps Hyperborea will never be found, but a new non-trivial tourist point will appear on the map.

Help from Suitcase

Kovdor- in the Murmansk region, located on the shore of Lake Kovdoro, 200 kilometers south-west of Murmansk. It was founded in 1953 near an iron ore deposit discovered in the 1930s. Today, in addition to ores, apatite and zirconium are mined here. The city is built up with typical blocks and surrounded by picturesque polar forests.

Many, including the Bolsheviks and Nazis, sought to find the legendary proto-civilization of the Hyperboreans. Gorod 812 journalists found the capital of Hyperborea in the polar Kovdor, a dead-end Russian monocity in the Lapland tundra, 17 km from the Finnish border.

Traces of ancient culture are found everywhere there - artifacts, literally, lie underfoot. For many years no one but crazy enthusiasts paid attention to them. Recently Kovdor officially declared himself the capital of Hyperborea. Why did the authorities believe in the legend, and why does the oligarch Melnichenko need it? - learned "City 812".

What happens if you dig for 60 years without stopping

Kovdor is on Kola Peninsula, this is the only place on the planet where baddeleyite (zirconium ore) is mined. But this is not what the city will become famous (not yet famous, but already ready): in Kovdor and the surrounding area, unique monuments have been found that belong to the (presumably) disappeared Hyperborean civilization. Journalists of "City 812" devoted their vacation to the study of the legend of the wonderland, and what benefits can be derived from the ancient runes.

Until now, the main thing here was (and remains) the Kovdor mining and processing plant (GOK). The city of Kovdor is located next to the combine, built in the 1950s on the "place of power" of the Hyperboreans. The images from space show: the area of ​​the GOK is larger than the area of ​​the city.

Kovdor on the map: quarry and city

The central point of Kovdor is a gigantic quarry with a diameter of 2.5 km and a depth of almost half a kilometer (!), In which iron ore is mined. Previously, there was a hill at this place.

For more than 60 years, they have been digging here without stopping: excavators and trucks crawling along the walls of the crater around the clock, as high as a three-story building, transporting ore. The journey from the surface of the earth to the bottom of the crater takes about an hour on a rotational shift (a car for delivering workers).

The GOK works seven days a week - continuous production.

We were given protective clothing(a complete set - from sandals to gloves) and allowed to walk along the edge of the quarry. You look down - as if from the tower of the Lakhta Center. The depth of the quarry and the height of the St. Petersburg skyscraper are the same.

Twice a week - on Wednesdays and Saturdays - rock is blown up at the GOK. Stone dust hangs in the air, the locals are already used to it and do not notice it. Sprinklers are driving around the territory of the GOK, irrigating sand and gravel roads.

The enterprise produces iron ore, apatite and baddeleyite concentrate. The plant has a license to dig for another hundred years - to a depth of two kilometers.

Artifacts underfoot

Kovdor stands on the lands of the ancient Sami. Many Kovdorites call themselves Sami and believe that they are the heirs of the Hyperboreans.

According to legend, Hyperborea (aka Arctida) founded a highly developed proto-civilization tens of thousands of years ago, which then mysteriously disappeared. Where exactly she was and whether she really was, have not yet been found out. In favor of the Arctic, the names are indicated - Arctida, as well as Hyperborea, which is translated from ancient Greek - “a country lying beyond north wind».

Artist Vsevolod Ivanov draws Hyperborea. From this picture it is clear that it was ruined by a global cold snap.

Traces of the Hyperborean civilization are found in large numbers by the inhabitants of the Kola Peninsula. Artifacts are lying under your feet! We were able to see only a small part of them. The main obstacle for researchers is nature, which hides ancient monuments in hard-to-reach places.

The main Kovdor artifact, fortunately, is located in a very accessible place. This is a runestone lying a hundred meters from the entrance of the GOK. Now it is hidden in a thicket of grass, overgrown with moss. According to Natalia Ilyina, the artifact was discovered by local historian Valentina Popova back in 1997. She made out runic symbols on it, going through the body of the snake. By the way, Kovdor is translated from Sami as "snake".

The most accessible artifact is a rune stone

Later, local researchers identified the runes on the stone as ancient Aryan. (According to the popular version, the Aryans were descendants of the Hyperboreans). Symbols add up to topographic map... The Runes of Fire and Stone are located on the site of an ancient volcano (now there is the Zhelezny mine there). Rune of Water - on the site of the city lake.

The stone is not guarded, and has not been seriously investigated by anyone. Although they made tracing paper from the runes to show to scientists.

Tracing paper from stone runes

One of the latest Kovdor discoveries is the megalithic complex on the banks of the Tolva River. There were found rectangular slabs laid in the form of stairs, and clusters of the same slabs, reminiscent of the foundations of buildings. This is the capital of Hypereborea, the locals are sure.

We are waiting for the Chinese

Local residents call Kovdor a dead end - because to him with “ big land"There is only one road that ends here. Few people travel to Kovdor - only business trips to the GOK and occasional tourists.

The population of Kovdor is about 16 thousand people, over the past 30 years it has decreased by half. The whole life of the townspeople revolves around the GOK: for them it is both an employer, and a master and a benefactor. The plant gives money for social services, culture, improvement and, in fact, manages life in Kovdor.

- It is impossible today to divide what the plant is doing and what the city is doing. But the city needs to get away from dependence on the plant, - local residents explain.

Together with the government of the Murmansk region and the administration of the Kovdor district at the GOK, they created a concept for the development of the territory, calling it straightforwardly - “Kovdor - the capital of Hyperborea”.

The main task is to attract tourists and create a tourist infrastructure in the region. Large-scale plans: hiking in the footsteps of the Hyperboreans, construction of hostels, chums, tourist centers. Establishment of deer and trout farms. Fishing for pearls on the Yena River (supplied to the imperial court of the Romanovs). Alluvium of gold. Collecting mushrooms, cloudberries and everything useful that has grown. Viewing the Northern Lights. Industrial excursions to the GOK and to the abandoned mines "Kovdorslyuda".

The concept is mainly focused on Russian tourists... Although they also hope for foreigners. “We are waiting for the Chinese,” the locals admit. “And, of course, the Finns.” Kovdor is located 17 km from the border with Finland. The city could heal richly if a border crossing opened nearby. Construction of the Kovdor - Savukovski checkpoint, as well as the road to the state border, are the main points of the Kovdor - the capital of Hyperborea project. The solution to this issue is being dealt with by the government of the Murmansk region and the EuroChem MCC of the oligarch Andrey Melnichenko, who owns the Kovdorsky GOK.

Pseudoscientific Stonehenge

Searches for Hyperborea on the Kola Peninsula have been going on since the beginning of the 20th century. We have already found a lot of things, but the controversy does not stop.

The first expedition led by Baron Eduard Tol, which went to the Arctic in search of the ancestral home of mankind, disappeared without a trace in 1902.

In the early 1920s, a special department of the OGPU under the direction of Gleb Bokiy equipped an expedition to the area of ​​Lovozero and Seydozero (these are lakes located 200 km east of modern Kovdor), which was entrusted to lead by Alexander Barchenko, an employee of the Institute. Ankylosing spondylitis.

Expedition of Barchenko. 1922 year

Barchenko found a lot of amazing things - plots of tundra paved with granite blocks, entrances to underground caves, pyramids, stone seids, rock paintings. The megalithic complexes described by him resemble Stonehenge. But the main thing for which Barchenko was driving was the study of unusual mental states that arose in people near the discovered artifacts. In the 1930s, the members of the expedition were shot.

A.B. Barchenko (1881 -1938). Snapshot from the investigation file, 1937.

In the 1940s, the Nazis tried to find Aryan civilization in the north, when they broke into the Arctic during the Second World War.

In the late 1990s, under the leadership of Doctor of Philosophy Valery Dyomin, several expeditions "in the footsteps of Barchenko" took place. Demin assures that he has confirmed his discoveries. Plus discovered at the bottom of the Seydozero images of geometric shapes and stone observatory on Mount Ninchurt.

There is no scientific explanation for these findings. In academic circles, the existence of Hyperborea is considered "pseudoscientific".

We wanted to see with our own eyes the mysterious artifacts that academics don't believe in. The indigenous people, however, say that not everyone can see the heritage of their ancestors.

"If the lake opens up for you"

We were looking for a guide to travel to Seydozero (the Saami have this sacred lake). The locals, in response to requests to take them there, said. "If the lake opens up for you ... Try to be silent there more ... Try to hear it."

But not all guides turned out to be so reverent - we crossed about 30 km on a boat along another lake - Lovozero, then walked several kilometers on foot to Seydozero. By the time the bloodthirsty mosquitoes had almost gnawed their jackets, a mirror-like surface had peeped out of the interweaving of branches.

Stationary water. Colored stones at the bottom. And blue (this is a color, not a metaphor) mountains in the distance. Sacred lake Sami, and possibly Hyperboreans.

As advised, we became quiet and listened. The lake said nothing, but gave him 10 rubles, two fishing hooks with spoons and a tiny lilac amethyst. All this wealth lay underfoot on the shore. We were able to see a 70-meter image of the giant Kuiva on the Kuivchorr rock.

Seidozero

We were not alone on the lake. Four Chinese men in identical poisonous green windbreakers wandered in silence nearby. Their translator said they were bloggers from Hong Kong. If they like it, crowds of Chinese tourists will be drawn to Seydozero.

But maybe they won't - the Hong Kong bloggers covered their faces with their hands and looked emaciated. According to the translator, they are in shock from mosquitoes. In Hong Kong, insect bites can be fatal as mosquitoes carry tropical diseases. Locals convinced bloggers that northern mosquitoes are completely harmless. But the Chinese did not believe - and did not speak, fearing that some insect would fly into their mouths.

In addition to mosquitoes, the Hyperborean land is also home to many snakes, bears and deer. We did not meet anyone larger than a mosquito, although we did come across heaps from bear activity. They ate reindeer - smoked and dried. It's a shame, but delicious.

Our guide to the artifacts of Hyperborea is skeptical - although not entirely rejecting. Because Hyperborea is important for the development of tourism.

On Mount Karnasurta, 6 km from the city of Revda, near Seydozero, ruins were discovered - enthusiasts believe that these are the remains of a Hyperborean city.

There is a similar masonry in the Kovdor region.

Sensation again

Since EuroChem and the Kovdor administration started the project “Kovdor - the capital of Hyperborea”, the number of ancient artifacts found on the territory of the Murmansk region has become more frequent. Just a few days ago, another sensational find was made. At the end of July 2019, a resident of Kovdor, Aleksey Tolmachev, while fishing on Lake Girvas, came across a large boulder decorated with stone threads, with a portrait of a humanoid carved on it. Geologists have already stated that the image on the stone, which is about 25-30 thousand years old, does not look like traces of natural weathering. Most likely, the boulder was a fragment of some kind of structure.

A photograph of the find was sent to the Kola Scientific Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

The last capital of Hyperborea

Change text size: A A

The center of the ancient state of Slavensk became the first capital of the Slavs In previous articles, we talked about the fact that on the territory of modern Ukraine, Belarus and Russia there was the most ancient state of Europe - Hyperborea. And that many facts confirm that it ceased to exist within its former borders due to a difficult war with two enemies at once - nomadic tribes and the Roman Empire. The Hyperboreans invented Greek fire? Quite a lot of fundamental structures were left behind by the civilization of Hyperboreans. These are the first Christian churches in the world on the territory of Crimea, in Chernigov, Kiev, Kamenets-Podolsk. But the most amazing structures are the grandiose ramparts. Only the so-called Zmievy Shafts stretched for one and a half thousand kilometers, and besides them we can observe the shafts of Kiev - the former capital of Hyperborea. Several giant half-rings, even by modern standards, fence off the territory where Odessa is now located. Obviously, in order to erect such large-scale structures, it was necessary to have technologies that would make it possible to move significant volumes of soil over distances in a different way than manually. Let's analyze if the ancient Hyperboreans could own such technologies. Wherever the largest defensive structures are located, there is a river or body of water nearby. Mostly they are made of sand, and judging by the angle of the slope, abundantly moistened with water during construction, and reinforced with wood or stone. As we wrote earlier, there is a lot of evidence that Hyperborea was an advanced power. Of the ancient world... Accordingly, the gear transmission that was used in many states Mediterranean, in particular for lifting water into irrigation systems, was known to them. Surely, the Hyperboreans could create an ancient semblance of pipes, for example, from animal skins sewn and treated with fat. Thus, they were quite able to carry out the so-called hydraulic washing. That is, with the help of a primitive pump, pump the sand mixed with water from the reservoir into the structure under construction. This explains why, during the construction of defensive structures, the Hyperboreans preferred sandy ramparts, at the top of which there were wooden or stone walls. The most developed state of the Ancient World The Greeks wrote that the Hyperboreans succeeded in the production of weapons, and in the sciences, and in art. In particular, their creations became role models for ancient Greek sculptors. Accordingly, we can assume that the samples of weapons or art of the Hyperboreans in their level surpassed the products of other states and could be taken by archaeologists for works of later historical periods. As we have already said in previous articles, nomadic warlike tribes, in particular the Scythians, were the constant enemy of Hyperborea on the eastern borders. It is known that the Persians, having conquered almost all of Asia, reached the Scythian lands and stopped. It is known about a temporary alliance between the Persians and the Scythians. The question arises, in an alliance against whom? Hardly against the Chinese Empire, the interests of which the Persians practically did not overlap. Another thing is Hyperborea, with which there was probably a struggle for influence on Black and Mediterranean seas... What the Scythians, pushed by the Persians, did on the borders with Hyperborea, we do not know. Perhaps they managed to capture and burn several border towns. And, probably, for this they met with harsh retribution. In any case, when King Cyrus came to them as his old allies, fearing nothing, they cut off his head. And they drowned her in a barrel of blood, with the words: “You wanted blood? Get it! " Whose blood did the Scythians have in mind? Perhaps our ancestors are Hyperboreans. Note that for almost five hundred years, the giant Persian power could not crush the scattered and relatively small Greek city-states in numerous wars. It is unlikely that this would have been possible if the Greeks in this confrontation did not have the support of another mighty power - their northern neighbor and teacher - Hyperborea. Let me remind you that the Persian state was destroyed by the united Greek army, led by Tsar Alexander the Great. Macedonia, if you look at the map, almost directly bordered on the territory of the Hyperboreans. Is there any evidence of a connection between the great Alexander and a people who seem to have higher technology than the Romans and Greeks? Let us recall at least the famous Greek fire or simply Alexander's helmet. This helmet was so impressive to everyone who saw it that numerous descriptions have survived. Alexander even received the nickname "ram-head" due to the two swirling horns skillfully depicted on the helmet. This helmet was of extraordinary strength. Apparently, we are talking about steel, the secret of the manufacture of which was not then owned by any of the peoples known to us. This helmet surpassed anything that could be created by the Persian or Greek masters of that time in the elegance of the finishing. But we still admire the products of Greek masters! The helmet of Alexander the Great was made of steel If we assume that the Hyperboreans are behind Alexander's campaign, the origin of such an amazing helmet is understandable. According to one of the legends, the helmet after the death of Alexander, who won dozens of victories in it, returned to his homeland and became a kind of symbol of the struggle of the Hyperboreans against the Romans several hundred years later. But more on that later. It is known that during the storming of the second city, the union of Troy - Tire, Alexander was forced to fill in a dam more than a kilometer long, spending about six months on this. It's almost impossible to do it manually. But if we take into account that the Hyperboreans helped him and that hydraulic injection technologies were applied, everything is explained. By the way, the diving bell in which Alexander descended to the bottom of the strait was most likely used to place pipes at the bottom. We have already said that in the fortieth year of our era, the emperor Nero brutally dealt with Christians, uniting all the Romans with this monstrous crime against an inevitable enemy. Let's remind that Hyperborea was, most likely, the first Christian state in the world (see the article in "KP in St. Petersburg" on February 6, 2006). And supported the Christian communities in the Roman Empire. It is known that Armenia and Georgia adopted Christianity much earlier than Rome. Most likely, under the influence of Hyperborea. The Roman legions create a second front against the northern power at war with the nomads. But did the Romans succeed in a quick victory? This is doubtful. First, on the way of the Romans, there is a natural water barrier - the Dniester. Secondly, Hyperboreans are skilled warriors and good builders. Most likely, the crossing over the Dniester was opposite the city of Kamenets-Podolsk. It is there that we see the most powerful stone fortifications. In all reference books they are dated as medieval. Yes, of course, for millennia, the fortifications were completed and reconstructed. Nevertheless, part of the surviving walls was erected before our era. It will not be surprising if in the near future underwater archaeologists at the bottom of the Dniester in this place will find the remains of the pillars of the grandiose bridge. Probably, at these lines, the Hyperboreans were able to delay the movement of the Roman army. Resistance to the Romans and nomads had hundreds of years If you believe the legends, then the king of Volos (Veles), the adopted son of Tsar Volotomar, the first Christian sovereign, ruled Hyperborea at that time. What decision could he make in this situation? It is logical that the Hyperboreans are retreating in an organized manner to the north of their state, where dense forests and swamps are their allies. And those lands that were not previously developed by them due to the harsh climate become their new homeland. They make their main task the struggle against the Roman Empire that betrayed them. Every man is obliged to crown himself with military glory. Perhaps hence the new name of the people - the Slavs, and the new northern capital - Slavensk. By the way, many ancient Slavic sources indicate that the first capital of Russia was founded by Veles himself, who began to be considered the god and patron saint of the Slavs. Let's try to imagine Slavensk. It should be Big city, not inferior in size to ancient Kiev. He should be near the water. And at the same time, considering when it was being built, in a fairly hidden and protected place. It should be surrounded by powerful ramparts, and the date of its construction dates back to the middle of the first century AD. Let's go back to the legend about the helmet of Alexander the Great. According to this legend, the helmet, crowned with his glory, made King Veles his talisman and a symbol of the struggle against the Romans. Perhaps this is what caused the hatred of the Romans for Alexander the Great. Recall that according to one of the versions, they destroyed the grandiose memorial built by Alexander in honor of the heroes of the Trojan War under the walls of Ephesus (“KP” dated November 18, 2005). Thus, in this legendary helmet with twisted horns, Tsar Veles already won one victory after another. Probably, being inferior in numbers and in general in resources, the war on the part of the Hyperboreans was partly partisan in nature. According to the Greeks, they were consummate sailors. Crossing the seas on their ships and going down the rivers, they unexpectedly attacked the Roman cities and garrisons. Note that later the Varangians borrowed this tactic from them, like the horns on their helmets. The Finns almost discovered Slavensk Thus, we can add one more parameter in the search for Slavenska. It should be somewhere at the junction of Scandinavian and Slavic cultures. I have repeatedly examined the grandiose shafts located outside the city of Zelenogorsk near St. Petersburg. As an engineer, I can say unequivocally - they are of artificial origin. They stretch for tens of kilometers. Come up to yourself Gulf of Finland in the place where the Black River flows into it, forming a natural, fairly deep harbor. This place meets all the characteristics that we have identified for the search for the first capital of Russia. Until someone proves otherwise, we will assume that we have found him. I have information that in the early 80s local excavations were carried out on these ramparts near Zelenogorsk and the remains of houses dating back to the 1st century BC were found. n. NS. Information about these excavations was classified. I also read that in the late 30s in this place Finnish archaeologists tried to start excavations. By a peculiar combination of circumstances, it was beyond this line that Stalin demanded that they move the Soviet-Finnish border. The dramatic events of the Soviet-Finnish war of the 40th year are known to everyone ... According to one of the northern legends, the king of Hyperboreans, the founder of Slavenska Veles, died in a major battle with the Romans somewhere in the area of ​​modern Smolensk, having previously lost his talisman, Alexander's helmet, knocked down by a powerful blow ... Which, most likely, became a trophy of some Roman general. Of course, placed in a guerrilla war with a superior enemy in a northern climate, the state of the Hyperboreans most likely disintegrated. But, perhaps, before that, he partially recovered in the Byzantine state. The fact that the Slavs were directly related to the emergence and development of the Byzantine state is a historical fact. Note that the Slavs were traditionally the guard of the Byzantine Caesars. It must be assumed that the Byzantine Empire, which considers itself the successor of Rome, made every effort to ensure that the very memory of Hyperborea was erased from world history. Byzantium borrowed the religion and language of the Hyperboreans Where is the best place to hide a piece of snow - in the snow; a piece of paper in a pile of other papers. The ancients knew this truth as well as we do. Most likely, the newly emerged Byzantine Empire takes over the language and writing of the disintegrated Hyperborea, that is, Greek. Indeed, Greek inscriptions are found almost everywhere in all Slavic lands. And nowhere have we yet found a single text older than the 8th century in Russian. Perhaps the new language was deliberately introduced by Byzantium on the territory of the former Hyperborea. Thus, probably, New Rome appropriated the culture and writing of the first Christian people devoted to them. By the way, if you analyze the ancient Greek myths, it is obvious that the events in many of them take place in more northern lands, overgrown with dense, including coniferous, forests. And in the tragedy of Aeschylus "Prometheus the Chained" it is said directly about the lands of the Kemerians, where the night lasts almost six months. So, perhaps the ancient Hyperboreans (Slavs) spoke and wrote in their native "Greek" language. Thus, the great Veles and the great Alexander, if they lived at the same time, could understand each other without an interpreter. But it is not only the tongue and the helmet that unite them; and Veles and Alexander were deified during their lifetime. And Veles and Alexander were considered not only gods, but also the sons of gods. As we wrote earlier, Veles was the adopted son of Tsar Volotomar, during whose reign most of all were built Christian churches... Including the church in Kiev over the burial of two people - a man and a woman. Perhaps ("KP" dated February 6, 2006), the bodies of Jesus Christ and his wife are buried there. Considering Jesus Christ as God and adopting Christianity as the state religion. It is logical that the Hyperboreans could only call the son of Jesus Christ the son of God. Thus, it is permissible to assume that the king of the Hyperboreans and the Slavic god Veles, perhaps, was indeed the earthly son of Jesus himself. The fact that this is so was the unshakable postulate of the religion of the Russian Old Believers or Old Believers, many of whom were martyred for their beliefs. BTW The helmet of Alexander the Great and Veles is in the Hermitage Unfortunately, it is very difficult to separate the traces of the culture of Ancient Hyperborea from the Greek and Byzantine ones. In those days, no one defended copyright and all the best, as a rule, was assigned to newcomers. History knows a lot of examples when old inscriptions were knocked off on old obelisks and new ones were carved. Signatures were changed under the monuments, and new hallmarks were put on coins and medals belonging to a different era. Once, while visiting the hall of medieval weapons in the Hermitage, I noticed four helmets made by the Italian master from Milan F. Negroli in the 30s of the 16th century. One of these helmets is very different from the other three. So much so that it can be seen with the naked eye - they belong not only to different masters, but also to different eras and civilizations. Not only the quality and manufacturing technology are fundamentally different, but also the material from which the helmets are made. The helmet, in which F. Negroli clearly surpassed himself and all the masters of his era, is forged in the form of the head of a fantastic animal with twisted horns. The more I looked at this helmet, the more the conviction grew in me - not for the Duke of Urbino Guidobaldo II and long before the 16th century. this ingenious work of an unknown ancient master was created.

Is there something similar to Stonehenge in Russia? Shamans from Kola were always the most vigorous, even Ivan the Terrible gathered them to the court. And the Soviet expeditions in all seriousness declared that they had found traces of the ancient civilization of Hyperborea. All the artifacts remained, you can go and see ...

Kola is the territory where the Sami lived. Now this is a small nationality of Russia, earlier - just pagans who hung out in the north and very powerfully shamanized. There are indeed references to the case of Ivan the Terrible in the annals. In Soviet times, it was useless to conjure, and the Sami were dispersed (or driven?) Into collective farms. Many are carried away by alcohol, and now the population of the nation is close to zero.

Kola is the homeland of humanity, the pre-civilization of Hyperborea. You can relate to this in different ways, but the SS Ahnenerbe was looking for artifacts here, and the expedition of the most famous occultist of the USSR, Barchenko, took place here. He stated that he had found irrefutable evidence of Hyperborean footprints. Now there are no official documents about this, and the parapsychologist himself, in general, a couple of years after the trip, was declared an enemy of the people and was shot. So, it is quite possible that some small town, like the local Kovdor, is nothing more than ancient capital legendary Hyperborea.

Kovdor. Career

No. 1 Seydozero

The peninsula is covered with lakes. The Sami treated them like the inhabitants of central Russia to the fields. Main power supply. Only now Seiodozero was considered sacred, and even with a triple bottom. In the 90s, Demin's expedition went here (just in the footsteps of the first Soviet one), the bottom of the lake was checked with an echo sounder and under it they found a dungeon with a stone floor and a vault leading to the side of the mountain.

Mount Ninchurt

It contains one of Barchenko's evidence. He wrote that he had found an underground passage from the lake to the heart of the mountain itself. There is even a photograph from the place of the find. On it there is an expedition of councils and not yet collective farm Sami.

photo from Barchenko's expedition

In the 30s, the secret department of the NKVD blew up and blocked the entrance to these caves. But something mysterious still remained. To do this, you need to climb the mountain itself. Some argue that there used to be pyramids there. Moreover, “earlier” is before the war. Now we see only a suspicious pile of stones, which, at the request of the beholder, could be a pyramid. And with an even greater desire - a spaceship of the Hyperboreans.

№3 Temple complex ancient civilization

If you go further from the "ruins of the pyramid" along Ninchurt, you will see many stones with very even rocks. Lumps with very even chips. And even a stone cube with some suspiciously hewn edges. Then you will see a gorge with a bridge, from which stone steps go up and down.

There are many versions of this place, both among scientists and mystics. In short, here is either a very geometric work of nature. Or oldest temple Hyperborea. A place for a spectacular service to the elements or something else quite suitable.

But these are all fantasies, but the footprints on the stone above the “temple” date back thousands of years. They are completely clear and no one can explain why, and most importantly - who made them.

No. 4 Kuiva

According to the “biological” essence, Kuiva is a microcolonial fungus that gives a dark pigment on the rock exactly along such a contour. But why the contour has not changed for hundreds of years, despite the rocky weathering, is completely incomprehensible.

No. 5 Seydy

These are perhaps the most famous points of power on the Kola Peninsula. This is usually the name for huge stones standing on smaller ones. But there may be other types, for the Sámi, seid is any place of worship for spirits. There are many of them on the peninsula, we saw this one on Mount Ninchurt. Who brought it and put it on the most beautiful viewpoint? Scientists say it is a glacier. The mystics claim that there was no glacier on Kola at all (there are quite scientific versions of this), and the seids are part of the ancient observatory of Hyperborea.

Researchers of ancient legends and myths mention one mysterious world, which is called Hyperborea. There is also information that this country sometimes called Arctida. Many have tried to find its possible location, but so far its existence has not been proven and has not been confirmed by anything other than myths. What is Hyperborea? This is a hypothetical ancient mainland or huge island that previously existed in the northern part of the planet near the North Pole. In those days, Hyperborea was inhabited by a very powerful people - the Hyperboreans, who had a fairly developed civilization. Considering what Hyperborea is, it should be noted that its name means "behind the north wind Boreas". Some researchers believe that this is the notorious Atlantis.
