(alright!)

The Sahara Desert was formed about 2.5 million years ago. It is the world's largest sandy desert, covering an area of ​​about 9.32 million square kilometers, and is located in northern Africa. The climate conditions in this area are very harsh and it is one of the most unsuitable places for biological survival on earth.

"Sahara" is a transliteration of Arabic. In Arabic, "Sahara" means great desert. It comes from the language of the local nomadic Tuareg people, and its original meaning is "great desert".

During the last Ice Age, the Sahara was not a desert. The climate was similar to that of East Africa. About 30,000 ancient rock paintings have been found in the desert, about half of which are in the En'Ajer Plateau in southern Algeria, depicting rivers.

Animals in the Sahara, such as crocodiles, etc., and dinosaur fossils have also been found. However, since 3000 BC, there has been almost no large-scale vegetation in the Sahara except for the Nile Valley and the oases scattered in the desert.

The prehistoric period was around the Pleistocene. The Sahara was not very dry at that time, but a vast river alluvial plain. No signs of human activity were found in this stage, so it was named prehistoric. There were rock paintings in North Africa at that time.

The buffalo period lasted from about 35,000 years ago to about 8,000 BC. Its rock paintings are mainly in southeastern Algeria, Chad and Libya. They were painted between about 10,000 BC and 8,000 BC. Rhinoceros. The figures in the paintings often

Wearing a round helmet, they used sticks, axes, bows and arrows, and threw sticks to hit their prey, but no javelins were seen.

Having said all this, I just want to say that there used to be water here!

Not only is there water, there are people who have lived here!

It is not as desolate as most people imagine since the beginning of time.

In fact, after the archaeological team cracked the secret of the secret room immediately, everyone's first reaction was that of ordinary people.

A group of people from a marine civilization actually buried an artifact in the desert! It is common knowledge that the people of Atlantis must survive underwater. Including the secret of the fall of Atlantis, many people in this world also

Know.

After all, when the contract was signed, Atlantis still had reasonable exchanges with human countries, and each other would still be informed of such tentative things.

That’s why the archaeological team immediately suspected whether this was a fake. If Atlantis hid a certain treasure at the bottom of a certain sea, they would believe it. But it could be hidden in the desert... According to the murals and cultural relics

In order to protect the artifact from being discovered, they built a huge underground palace...

If it were in the desert, how could it be possible to allocate manpower and material resources to build an underground palace?

Aren't they just like fish, they will die if they are away from them?

However, this statement was soon overturned by geographers. Not only did the Sahara Desert have no shortage of water a long time ago, there were even buffaloes living there!

And soon, some new discoveries also showed one thing, that is, Atlantis did not sink at that time, and Atlantis was still living on land at that time!

This discovery made many people very excited!

Because before that, they only knew that the continent of Atlantis sank, and then the Atlanteans became an undersea civilization, and everyone could breathe in the water. But to be honest, not many people knew the specific time.

Since then, Atlantis itself has not told anyone about this thing.

There's no particular reason, I just... simply forgot...

Yes, that's it.

They didn't even think of explaining it to anyone. Most of the people present at the negotiation were officials, and no one got to the bottom of it.

In short, they can be considered to have grasped the specific time of Atlantis' sinking... Of course, this thing is only somewhat influential in the academic circle, and no one will pay too much attention to it. Because it is of no great use, what can they do if they know it?

Sample?

Can you threaten the Atlanteans?

cannot.

Do you know how Atlantis transformed all the people into aquatic creatures?

also can not.

Speaking of this, scientists all over the world are now curious about how the Atlanteans managed to turn the survivors of the entire continent into aquatic creatures?

You know, it will take at least several million years for terrestrial life to transform into aquatic life!

The most famous example of a land creature transforming into an aquatic creature is the whale!

Their ancestors lived on land, so how did they evolve into the current overlords of the ocean? 1. The ancestors of whales: Pakistani whales As early as 1978, scientists discovered the oldest Pakistani whale fossil in Pakistan.

Fossils from other parts were discovered. Studies have found that the skull of this animal and the area surrounded by bone walls are very similar to modern whales, but at that time not many people believed that it was related to aquatic whales.

Later, scientists discovered that the animal's eardrum bulge was similar to that of modern whales, and that the structure of its ankle bones was the same as that of artiodactyls, confirming that it was a cetacean that previously lived on land, and named it after the place where it was found. The Pakistani whale lives in

About 50 million years ago, it looked like a dog/wolf, with hair all over its body and a body length of less than 2 meters. It was a "little guy" who lived near water sources and fed on fish, but was always eaten by scavengers.

"Take advantage".

Moving towards the ocean As time goes by, food on land becomes less and less, and whales who live a difficult life begin to pay attention to the underwater world. After millions of years of evolution, wandering whales appear, they are amphibians on land and water.

, the body length is longer than that of the pakistan whale, reaching 3 meters. The legs under the body have changed from slender to short and thick, and are distributed on both sides of the body. The feet have structures like sea lion flippers, and the body has become streamlined.

.

Their swimming method is also similar to that of modern whales, swinging their tails up and down, but when moving on land, their limbs that have not yet completely degenerated can support them to walk on land. Third, the time when whales completely plunge into the ocean increases.

As time goes by, whales gradually plunge into the ocean, their limbs degenerate, their bodies become more streamlined, and their swimming postures become more natural and graceful. The strength of modern whales is the result of hundreds of millions of years of evolution.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It took hundreds of millions of years for the Pakistani whale to become a modern whale!

But what about the Atlanteans?

It was completed in an instant. This is really trampling the theory of evolution under its feet!

What's even more awesome is that their body structure is not much different from humans... Whales can't breathe in the water until now! Although whales can go to the deep sea, they still have to come to the surface to breathe air. Otherwise, they will drown.

.

But the Atlanteans don't need it... They don't need to breathe at all in the deep sea. What's even more exaggerated is that they don't even have gills... Amazing, right?

Not only that, they are not even reproductively isolated from surface humans.

They can also mate and produce healthy offspring!

Neptune Arthur is the child born between Atlantis and humans. He not only grew up healthy, but also inherited the characteristics of Atlantis.

However, some people have questioned this, not so much whether Arthur's biological mother is an Atlantean, but about reproductive isolation. After all, whether Arthur can give birth to a child normally is another matter.

This is what scientists are most curious about now.

It’s not that they are boring, it’s just that this is a great subject. If it can be proven that there is no reproductive isolation between each other, it will be a huge discovery... There seems to be little difference between the people on the surface and the people in Atlantis, but in reality

The difference is very large.

You try putting humans into the deep sea!

Isn’t this a big difference?

Now that you’re old enough, let’s go!

But they were able to complete the transformation overnight... Saying that overnight is just a description, it didn't really take one night. After all, Atlantis used to be purely terrestrial creatures, and they didn't have to swim out to sea.

It's by boat!

So they will still drown!

After one night, even if they can transform, they will probably all drown and the Atlanteans will be exterminated.

So this must be completed in a very short time, maybe even an instant!

But in just such a small amount of time, the whales have completed the journey that they have traveled for hundreds of millions of years, and they have come to the front. How come this doesn’t leave scientists scratching their heads!

This is evolution!

If the secret can be cracked, then human evolution can take a big step forward!

The key is that this evolution is controllable and directional.

Evolution cannot be expressed in two words.

Evolution, also known as evolution, in biology refers to the changes in genetic traits in a population between generations. The so-called traits refer to the expression of genes. During the reproduction process, genes will be copied and passed to offspring. Gene mutations

It can change traits, thereby causing genetic variation between individuals. Simply put, the essence of evolution is: changes in population gene frequency. Passive changes made by organisms in order to adapt to the environment. In fact, from the perspective of survival, evolution

The word is actually ambiguous, because the name given by Darwin was "The Origin of Species", and when Wan Qing Yanfu first translated it, the name was also "Evolution of Heaven", so the correct name should be "Evolution".

For living things, high intelligence is not only not a good thing for survival, but also a bad thing, because complex biological systems consume more energy. You see, humans are not idle all day long, but they also eat more than other animals.

It is because hundreds of thousands of years ago when we were primitive humans, we had to evolve the intelligence and ability to use tools in order to adapt to the climate at that time. As a result, the evolution of time and climate has resulted in the current situation. As a result, modern people have higher and higher IQs and physical fitness.

However, our adaptability to the environment is getting worse and worse. In the primitive period, we did not need to exercise specially. Now, even if top athletes or bodybuilders do not insist on exercising, their muscles will atrophy after three months. Save or lose, survival of the fittest is the way to go.

The essence of the law of the jungle, but whether evolution is good or bad, humans cannot answer this, because God does not play dice, this is all natural selection, and no one knows the future.

So evolution is uncontrollable, no one knows whether evolution is good or bad!

But the Atlanteans can control it!

According to their own needs, they turned themselves into Atlanteans who could survive and move in the deep sea!

This is so damn powerful.

I can’t say enough about God!

Even scarier than God.

This is definitely one of the ultimate dreams of all scientists!

Master the secrets of evolution!

Back to business.
