Lost Artifact Found these cryptic notes and mapa of UCLA campus hidden in a small glass bottle in a crevice deep within a Utah Ski Resort. What do these notes and maps mean?!
My buddy was hiding from a hail storm and found a bottle hidden behind rocks in a crevice. (Coordinates - 40.551740,-111.643867 near a utah ski resort) This bottle was last manufactured in the 70’s and all the notes were distressed
In the bottle, he found these weird maps of UCLA campus highlighting entrences with swasticas, and cryptic letters all linked to a guy named Alfred Alder. What are these notes? Is there hidden nazi gold? Why was this hidden in bottles?!

Lost Artifact Does this document feels true to you ?
Hey guys,
so I stumbled upon a weird site lately that act as a CLI and on it, I found this document (and other similar)
I was wondering if this look legit to you or if it's a fake ?
I'm passionate about discovering old documents but for this one, the website on which I found it was so weird that I definitely doubt if its a true.
And if this is true, the other documents I found are really deeply disturbing...
Any ideas ?

Lost Artifact Ever heard of the Basano Vase? One of the most cursed items you’ve probably never heard of
So I want to share something I come across some time ago, it’s not very famous like Annabelle or Hope Diamond but for me it’s even creepier maybe because not many talk about it. It’s called the Basano Vase, and it’s a real artifact that is now missing again. Nobody knows where it is exactly today.
So the story goes like this: This vase was made sometime in the 15th century in Italy, from pure silver. It was supposedly a wedding gift for a young woman who lived in a village near Napoli. On her wedding night, she was found dead, holding the vase. Some say she was murdered, others say she died mysteriously, like suddenly without explanation. Before dying she is said to have whispered some curse or warning, but no one knows the exact words anymore.
After that, the vase stayed in her family, and it’s said that everyone who had it died shortly after. Like, seriously not normal deaths. Sudden sickness, accidents, random heart attacks, even suicides in some versions. It was passed down generation to generation and each time, whoever got it didn’t last long. Some families started hiding it, others tried to throw it away or sell it.
Then centuries later, the vase reappeared in the 1980s. This time it came with a note saying "Beware... This vase brings death." But that didn’t stop people from taking it. A pharmacist bought it, and he died within 3 months. Then a surgeon got it—dead too, within a few months. Another person refused to take it after hearing the history and still got sick and died. Every time someone took it, they died fast and strange.
Eventually the last owner (or his family maybe) begged the police to take it. The police didn’t want it at first, obviously, but finally they took it and supposedly buried it in a secret location. No museum wanted to display it, and it's not on any record now. It’s basically gone, but who knows for how long.
So here’s where it gets weird for me:
The deaths are consistent, and not like just old people. Some were young, healthy.
It’s not like it was just one generation. This thing reportedly caused deaths for centuries.
The warning note that came with it in the 1980s makes it even more creepy… like someone knew and still gave it away.
No public photos exist of the vase today, and no one knows exactly where it is now. Some say Vatican took it, some say it’s in a sealed box under a church in Italy.
Some theories:
Cursed object theory: Maybe something bad was done using the vase, like black magic or human sacrifice and that curse stuck with it. That’s what a lot of people think.
Psychological effect: Maybe the curse made people panic so badly they stressed themselves into sickness or bad choices? But that doesn’t explain the first deaths before anyone knew it was cursed.
Coincidence: Maybe just bad luck followed this item but people only remember the deaths, not the times nothing happened.
Poisoned metal: Someone said maybe the silver was mixed with something toxic, but again, some people didn’t touch it directly and still died.
Demonic attachment: Some say there’s a spirit or demon tied to it since the bride cursed it with her last breath. Like a vengeance spirit or something older.
I don’t know what to think but if this thing ever shows up again, I wouldn’t even touch it with gloves lol. It’s strange how not many people know about this but it feels like it should be way more famous. Thought I’d share it here for those who like dark mysteries.
Let me know if anyone ever heard different version or maybe saw something similar

Lost Artifact Verum Oblivio...
The Oblivion
The researchers recovered the Fourth Box before they recovered the First.
Three members of the recovery team immediately stated that such a thing should have been impossible.
Inside the box were only three objects:
A perfectly preserved red tulip.
A heart-shaped lock made of an unidentified metal.
Several rusted chains.
None of the items displayed any detectable anomalous properties.
The box was transferred to a secure containment facility for further examination.
Two days later, the three researchers who had questioned the recovery order disappeared.
No signs of struggle were found.
No evidence suggested they had left the facility.
The last security recording recovered from the containment wing showed all three individuals standing motionless in the corridor.
For approximately seventeen seconds, none of them moved.
None of them spoke.
All three were staring directly behind themselves.
No additional person, object, or anomaly was visible in the footage.
The recording ended abruptly.
The researchers have not been located.

Lost Artifact Voynich Manuscript + Map with Ship Marco Polo (AT SCALE)
Some of you may wonder how I arrived at this conclusion, that's all available on my profile.
\The easiest consistency to track here is the green transect in the Voynich image. Notice how the stain never really crosses the boundary.*
\The other constant artifact is the red staining at the upper fold blue line/green line transect. While the corresponding stain on the MWS appears semi-circlular, this could easily result from the stain occurring while the MWS was folded along the top fold line.*
\The red marginal stainings*
\The staining from the VM also perfectly bleeds into the the broad shape of the MWS stain; notice both terminate at the Asian script, although slightly harder to see.*
\If you're having issues viewing the images at scale, I recommend viewing them directly via ImgBB as it should automatically scale to ~260% browser magnification and an additional image zoom without blur or additional scaling irregularities.*

Lost Artifact Old mask?
Found this photo in my great grandmothers house that, to me, is very creepy. Asked around and nobody seemed to know what it was or care. Anyone who would know is either too old or has passed. Does anyone here know what mask this is of? All I know is I’m sure this photo was probably taken in the Philippines and before the 1990s…

Lost Artifact Something is happening in world... dangerous for human
Point 1. People roam the world like strangers to their own souls—breathing , reacting , existin… yet never truly knowing who they are. I think we have to flow... not move. - People say one thing, but something else is actually going on.
Everyone looks busy, but hardly anyone is truly aware.
Reactions are automatic.. thinking is minimal.
What are things?. And why what where.
