BRAZIL. Archaeologists Find Human Occupation Dated in More of 7.000 years



BRAZIL. Mato Grosso do Sul state. In the micro-region of Três Lagoas and neighborhoods of the Parana River, archaeologists from the Museu da Universidade Federal do Mato Grosso do Sul (Museum of Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul), Emilia Mariki Kashimoto and Gilson Rodolfo Martinez, found evident traces of human occupation dated in more of 7.000 years.


Três Lagoas city, located in the micro-region of Três Lagoas


In the study Arqueologia e Paleoambiente do Rio Paraná (Archaeology and palaeoenvironment of the Parana River, 2009) - researchers found objects that confirm the human presence and an established culture at the region there are 11,000 years. 

Possibly, in the archaeological period called Pleistocene - or the Ice Age - prehistoric communities inhabiting the region subsisted of fishing and gathering of forest resources.

Only in Três Lagoas, there are 70 archaeological sites where scientists work since 1993. But, not only the Paleolithic tools were unburied, were found more recent artifacts too, like ceramics which were dated at 1.200 years.

Atmospheric phenomenon frightens residents of Brazil's hinterlands


BRAZIL, state of Mato Grosso do Sul. Near the city of Vincentina, during one of the many storms that recently fell on Itamarati Settlement Area, residents were startled when, during the night, a strange natural phenomenon occurred. 

A large cloud appeared illuminating the sky. It was red. It was emitting bright sparks, flaming and had unusual shape.

The visual effect is - really, extraordinary. But it is only an electrical phenomenon that occurs well above the earth and can be perceived at night when a storm is on the distant horizon. 

These occurrences are called by various names: red sprites, elves, blue jets, gnomes and pixies.

The red sprites explode in the clouds after emit a powerful electric charge in direction to the earth. The weak flares can spread for miles reaching the atmosphere there about 95 kilometers high.

They use to have tube the format or jellyfish, with thin blue rings under them. At its highest point, they can form lightning-shaped disc called "sprite halos." 

The color red is produced by the ionized nitrogen, the most common gas in the atmosphere. The Sprites can be saw only by milliseconds. Blue jets erupt on top of the core of a storm - the most electrically active region. Cones of narrow are formed and disappear there about 40 km in height

Brazil - Thousands of dead fish in the Pantanal

WHERE: Mato Grosso do Sul state, Midwest region of Brazil. Photo: Rhobson T. Lima/O Pantaneiro

MATO GROSSO DO SUL/AMAZON Region – At Aquidauana, pantanal region of the Mato Grosso do Sul state, shoals of painteds, pacus, golden fishes, cacharas - and even stingrays, are floating dead in Rio Negro, one of the largest in the Amazon River basin.

The estimated Environmental Policy is of that several tons of fishes died, adding that the authorities and experts, they still do not have the scale of the ecological disaster.

Biologist of the State Institute of the Environment, Roberto Gill Machado, noted the phenomenon, considered of great proportion, after flying over the region of sub-basin of Rio Negro. 

At this place fishing is banned. The area is considered one of the nurseries of fish breeding of the Pantanal.

According to the technicians of the Institute the symptoms that occur in this case are the same symptoms of other instances of the genre. 

The fishes are dying putting their heads out of water trying to obtain air, due to lack of oxygen in the water. This deficiency is due to the large volume of ash produced by burned, which is carried by runoff along riverbeds of the wetland.

However, the idea of blaming the ashes of forest burn has no rationale. The residents of the region, they don't believe in this theory. 

More probaly the poisoning of water by gases would be generated by decomposing organic matter, a process that, in fact, removes oxygen from water. All very natural to some extent. 

What is not natural in the region is the volume of fish that died from deadly agent. It seems that something is rotten at the Gaia realm. Maybe, who knows... are us!

Ghost in photo I



MATO GROSSO DO SUL – At Porto Murtinho, a little city located on the frontier of Mato Grosso do Sul state – Brazil – with Paraguay, a group of tourists took several pictures at a place named Ingazeira. When they began to see the photos, they had a surprise. A spooky surprise: the image of a ghost woman appears in the back of the scene. Look, analyze, meditate ...

The Mistery of Crater of the Macaws




MATO GROSSO DO SUL – At the region of the town Rio Bonito, in a locality named Alegria Farm (Fazenda Alegria) there is a huge crater. It has 512 meters of diameter and its depth is unknown. It's the Macaw's Hole (Buraco das Araras), a place of difficult access (look the photo). The explorers that managed arrive there confirmed that the crater is indeed an enigma.




The vertical walls of the abyss have terraces, tunnels and caves that hide amazing scenarios. All things there is very strange, macabre and unexplained. The tunnels seem to be work of human hands or other intelligent agent.

In the 1970s the Brazilian Army sent an expedition to the site. Technicians reached only 90 meters deep. They found a collection of the strangest objects: many human bones and carcasses of cars destroyed. No one knows how the cars were stopping there. It's as if they had fallen from the sky.




Other explorers, using techniques of rappelling, down more there are 124 meters deep (the equivalent of a 41-story building) found a lake of green waters, dark and dense. There was not observed any form of animal life except a strange reptile, like a kind of crocodile. Also in the vicinity of the lake were found human bones and more one car destroyed.

Some scientists believe that the crater can be result of the fallen of a meteorite at a very ancient geologic epoch. However, there are many legends that recur the fantastic and the supernatural as an explanation for the mysteries of the crater. At the place, would have fallen a UFO.

Others say the that the abyss leads to a shelter of extraterrestrial or maybe that the crater could to be a kind of laystall where cars and people abductees are buried in secret, in this strange cemetery, the crater of Araras. And still, others, think that the crater is one of the entrances to an underground world inhabited by a race of intelligent beings unknowns of the mankind.

The Mysteries of Little Brook City (Corguinho)



In small town Corguinho, wich name means little brook, in the hinterlands of the state Mato Grosso do Sul, in a place called Fazenda Boa Sorte (Good Luck Farm), a group of some ufologists established the headquarters of the Portal Project (Projeto Portal). Their goal is observe strange phenomenons and make contact with alien beings or creatures that inhabit other dimensions unknown to the men but that may exist in a parallel universe, right here on planet Earth. The Project is led by Mr. Urandir Fernandes de Oliveira.
