John’s mouth dropped open as the image finally loaded. He couldn’t contain his emotions any longer, and a tear rolled down his cheek. The statues were not normal works of art – they were actually human remains that had turned into stone.
The realization stabbed him like a knife to the chest. He understood that these statues were not art, but remnants of a civilization that had long gone extinct. Now, it was up to him to comprehend how these people were so well-preserved.
They must have possessed knowledge that allowed them to capture the past. What other knowledge could he draw from them?
John’s discovery was truly incredible. He had to tell his colleagues about it. Despite the late hour, he woke everyone at the base camp. They all shared his passion for archaeology, and they immediately realized it must be a magnificent find.
