In 2022, a significant discovery took place in Chile. During archaeological excavations of the area where the Mapuche Indians once lived, scientists came across a stone that initially did not attract attention. However, when it accidentally split open, the remains of an unusual creature were discovered inside. It was the fossilized skeleton of a small humanoid with wings, which immediately caused a sensation among researchers.
Archaeologist Elias Diaz Ortega, who discovered this stone, shared his impressions of the find. He said that the Mapuche Indians associated these creatures with the tree of life, and in later times they were called fairies or pixies. Scientists estimate that the stone is about 1.5 million years old, suggesting that these creatures may have lived in local forests since ancient times. This find raised questions about the traditional theory of evolution.
