Pure bollocks. Just because we don't understand the symbols doesn't mean it's an encrypted message for us.
That aside, Skhul Cave has 100,000 year old shell necklaces. Human made objects being 'older than the pyramids' isn't all that mysterious.

encrypted code... i think i solved it. Someone decided to decorate his or her statue.

I blame StarGate

Don't be an ass. They probably just did a bad translation. Encrypted just means we don't understand it. It's not the same as being secret.

That.. is real interesting. I hope I hear more about it.
[–] Icarus2 1 point 3 points 4 points (+4|-1) ago
Interesting.
Found more pics of it. Not sure how the alien got in there. Bastards.
Also, more pics here without alien interference.
[–] Alias_Unknown 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
None of those pictures make it look like it's anything more than a design for decoration.
Am I missing something?
I mean, I know a language that old wouldn't be too complicated. But I don't see any sort of structure beyond some aesthetically pleasing squiggly bits.

"Encrypted message about the origin of humanity and the creation of the universe" sounds a whole lot more interesting than "weird old wooden doll with squiggly bits on it"
[–] TheHemingWay 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
Encrypted code? Looks more like decorations to me.

This is just Russia trying to bait ISIS in to crossing borders to destroy some of their articfacts.
[–] Baconmon 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
Where the hell is this "encrypted code" at exactly?.. All I see are lines that just look like patterns for decorations..
