The discovery of an Ancestral Puebloan chamber dating back to the eighth century in the barren sandstone passageways of a New Mexico canyon has thrown archaeologists completely off their conventional timelines. According to the National Park Service, the site was sealed in a block of solid, non-terrestrial isotopic composite and contains yucca fibre, traditional artefacts, and an anomalous technological artefact made from stabilised metallic hydrogen and other isotopes, which, according to scientific projections, should not exist for at least another 3,000 years.
While the NSA has placed a total blackout on the site through ‘Sector Zero’ security classifications, this archaeological site has gone from its original purpose as a heritage dig to become an active battleground in a temporal conflict. These findings indicate that not only were the high desert areas home to these ancient peoples, but they were also used as a strategic dead drop for these troops in their time-transcending conflict. As clandestine forces scramble to recover these chronologically displaced assets, the site remains a focal point for an invisible, high-stakes war.
