Mystery
Roopkund - a glacial lake located at an altitude of 5029 m in the Indian state of Uttarakhand, which harbors a dreadful secret.
When coming down the ice on the lake surface float hundreds of skeletons. This unusual burial found in 1942 forester local reserve. Initially it was assumed that the remains belong to the Japanese soldiers who infiltrated the area, and then died as a result of "nehostynnosti" territory. Since the discovery occurred in World War II, the British immediately sent a detachment to see they do not come across a secret passage to the enemy. However, after investigation it became clear that the skeletons could belong to Japanese soldiers.
Some researchers and scientists have suggested that the bones belong to General Zoravar Singh and his men who were lost and died in the Himalayas on the way back after Tibetan battle in 1841. However, radiocarbon analyzes conducted in the 1960s disproved this theory.
Tests have shown that the skeletons could lie here during the XII to XV century. This has led historians to believe that the remains somehow related to the unsuccessful attack on Muhammad Tuhhlaka Himalayas. Yet other scientists believe that the bones belong to the victims of unknown people who died from the epidemic. Some anthropologists argue that it is - the victim of ritual suicide.
It was only in 2004 when a team of European and Indian scientists arrived in the area on the initiative of Channel National Geographic, awful truth of this mystery began to emerge.
DNA testing led to the fact that the dead were divided into two categories: some are small, others - much higher. Even the body which belonged to an earlier period than previously thought. It turned out that the bones are here somewhere from 850 AD
Cracks on the back saying that they died from a fatal blow to the head, but it was not a landslide or avalanche. Attempts were inflicted by blunt round object about the size of cricket ball. The absence of any other wounds on the body suggests that the blow was struck from above.
The only plausible explanation for the fact that so many people at one time was similar injuries comes down to this: they something fell from the sky. For example ... degrees.
There is no historical evidence that in the area were some trade routes but the lake Roopkund is an important pilgrimage path of worship Nanda Devi, and festivals were held about once every 12 years. This group of 500-600 people was likely to pilgrims. They were all from one place and hired a group of porters who knew the local area.
Approaching the lake, they are most likely descended the hill to collect fresh water over their heads when hovering clouds. In the Himalayas there was no shelter, so many, and perhaps all of them were killed. Icy lake water preserved their bodies for hundreds of years. Some skeletons were even hair and nails, as well as intact pieces of clothing.
Perhaps one of the pilgrims escaped this fate, he returned to the village and told about it, because the local villages there is an interesting legend. In folk songs Himalayan female goddess is described, which is so much mad at people who invaded her mountain monastery, send down upon them a deadly rain from the sky in the form of stones, "hard like iron."
