10,000-year-old rock Paintings Depicting Aliens and UFOs found in Chhattisgarh?

        This type of interpretation is certainly controversial and speculative.  I am more interested in the actual age been suggested. that may also be controversial.  However habitation covers the time frames and surviving images remain possible.  I think that the interpretation here is a stretch and serves to only draw attention and unfortunately as the topic of the UFO becomes more accepted as is also inevitable, then we are going to start getting opportunistic scholars beating the drums like this case.


We have over 100,000 global UFO sightings with plenty of close ups to go with the dominant light in the sky which is meaningless.  In fact it is the detail that is now getting reported.     10,000-year-old rock paintings depicting aliens and UFOs found in Chhattisgarh Rashmi Drolia,TNN | Jul 15, 2014, 08.32 PM IST  http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/10000-year-old-rock-paintings-depicting-aliens-and-UFOs-found-in-Chhattisgarh/articleshow/38435091.cms

CHARAMA (Chhattisgarh): Chhattisgarh state department of archaeology and culture plans to seek help from Nasa and Isro for research on 10,000-year-old rock paintings depicting aliens and UFOs in Charama region in Kanker district in tribal Bastar region. 

According to archaeologist JR Bhagat, these paintings have depicted aliens like those shown in Hollywood and Bollywood flicks. Located about 130km from Raipur, the caves come under village Chandeli and Gotitola. 

"The findings suggest that humans in prehistoric times may have seen or imagined beings from other planets which still create curiosity among people and researchers. Extensive research is needed for further findings. Chhattisgarh presently doesn't have any such expert who could give clarity on the subject," Bhagat told TOI.

There are several beliefs among locals in these villages. While few worship the paintings, others narrate stories they have heard from ancestors about "rohela people" — the small sized ones — who used to land from sky in a round shaped flying object and take away one or two persons of village who never returned. 

"The paintings are done in natural colours that have hardly faded despite the years. The strangely carved figures are seen holding weapon-like objects and do not have clear features. Specially, the nose and mouth are missing. In few pictures, they are even shown wearing space suits. We can't refute possibility of imagination by prehistoric men but humans usually fancy such things," the archaeologist said.

He added that it is a co-incidence that such ancient images appear to have sharp resemblance to UFOs shown in alien movies. "The fan-like antenna and three legs of vehicle's stand clearly show a similarity to UFO type craft," he said. 

Other archaeologists would also be consulted for further verification.
