With all of the recent discoveries that are being made, it certainly seems like a possibility. A Possibility that mainstream scholars seem to have a problem with, since that would mean our history book would need to be rewritten? The origin of man and the fundamentals of religions would change a lot, and that is something that mainstream scholars cannot possibly deal with.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code.jpg\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-56442\" src=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code.jpg\" alt=\"290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code\" width=\"618\" height=\"356\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code.jpg 618w, https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code-300x173.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 618px) 100vw, 618px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>At first this footprint might not seem like much, as you can probably come across it anywhere on Earth, but this is no ordinary footprint. You can obviously see the anatomy of it, it resembles a modern-day human foot, but the thing is, this footprint is fossilized and embedded into a stone that researchers believe is at around 290 million years old. That is a gigantic missing period of time that if proven to be accurate will change a lot of things in society as we know it today.<\/p>\n<p>The discovery of the 290 million year old footprint was made in New Mexico by paleontologist Jerry MacDonald in 1987. In the vicinity of this mysterious footprint there are fossilized impressions\u00a0of birds and other animals. The discovery of the human impression has left MacDonald particularly puzzled and not he or anyone who has seen and studied the impression has not been able to explain how this modern footprint could have been located in the Permian strata, which according to scholars dates from\u00a0290 to 248 million years, a time period which occurred long before man or even birds and dinosaurs existed on this planet, of course, that is according to modern science and scientific thinking.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code2.jpg\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-56443\" src=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code2.jpg\" alt=\"290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code2\" width=\"395\" height=\"681\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code2.jpg 395w, https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code2-174x300.jpg 174w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 395px) 100vw, 395px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Should we change the way we think and look at things? Or should we accept modern-day scientific thinking which suggests, there is no way that is a human footprint dating back 290 millions of years. It seems to be an ongoing debate between people who firmly believe that history is wrong, and those who point out that all of these mysterious findings are actually a hoax and have nothing to do with reality.<\/p>\n<p>This 290 million year old footprint has been categorized by\u00a0paleontologists as problematic as they do not seem to understand the way it got there, and better yet, who left it there. Basically some would say that to prove that this footprint which dates back 290 million years isn\u2019t a fake, all we have to do is find something similar to it, and researchers have found numerous unexplainable things that can be connected with this footprint found in New Mexico.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_56444\" style=\"width: 345px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code3.jpg\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-56444\" class=\"size-full wp-image-56444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code3.jpg\" alt=\"In this image we see a similar footprint dating back millions of years, the only difference is that this footprint is gigantic and located in Africa.\" width=\"335\" height=\"446\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code3.jpg 335w, https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/290-million-year-old-footprint-Ancient-Code3-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 335px) 100vw, 335px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-56444\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">In this image we see a similar footprint dating back millions of years, the only difference is that this footprint is gigantic and located in Africa.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Researchers have had mixed feelings about this footprint, and they don\u2019t seem to try very hard to debunk it, nor have they argued about the authenticity of the footprint.
