An ancient Greek statue of a woman “using a phone” has been described as “proof of time travel”. Experts dismissed the conspiracy as the statue depicts a woman using a modern laptop with a USB connection. Amazingly, the “proof” of time travel was sculpted in 100BC.
A 37-inch marble sculpture at the J. Paul Getty Museum in Malibu, California, shows the enthroned woman with an attendant. A slave holds a thin folding box while a woman sits on a chair in the sculpture. Mistress touches the tip of the box as her marble eyes look up.
Some have suggested that the box is a laptop screen because it has two holes that look like USB ports or cable inputs. A conspiracy YouTube channel claims that the base is too small for a jewelry box.
The video states that the sculpture “depicts a striking object that bears a striking resemblance to a modern laptop or a handheld device”.
However, he provides a more realistic explanation: “When I look at the statue, I can’t help but think of the oracle at Delphi, which was believed to give priests access to advanced knowledge. will be allowed to communicate with the gods.”
Experts called this analysis more realistic. A historian’s description of the exhibit states that the sculpture depicts a grave woman peering into a “shallow breast”. Funerary art featured prominently in funerary art at the time. He hoped that the loved ones would enjoy earthly pleasures in the afterlife.
Archaeologist Christina Kilgrove at Forbes said the object could write wax tablets. He said there could be rotten wood in the side holes. Gallery visitors and the Internet have identified time travel in artworks before.
Ferdinand Georg Waldmiller’s 1860 masterpiece “The Expected One” was criticized for depicting a woman “holding an iPhone.” The adorable photo shows a young woman “iPhone scrolling” in the countryside. According to art critics, the woman was actually reading a prayer book.
