Ancient star-shaped holes found in Volda: Evidence of extremely advanced precision machine?

Although areas like Puma Punku and the Giza basalt plateau have precise holes drilled several feet into the extremely hard stones, these particular holes were strangely produced in the shape of stars.

We’ve all heard the saying that “necessity is the mother of invention.” When you have limited resources, you begin to think outside the box and push your knowledge and skills to the limits. This is exactly what happened in ancient civilizations. When societies are threatened by famine or extreme climate changes, they become desperate for a solution. This often leads to an acceleration of innovation among these civilizations; we see an explosion of ideas and concepts that would not have appeared without this pressure.

The Famine Stela is an inscription written in Egyptian hieroglyphs located on Sehel Island in the Nile near Aswan in Egypt, which tells of a seven-year period of drought and famine during the reign of pharaoh Djoser of the Third Dynasty. It is thought that the stele was inscribed during the Ptolemaic Kingdom, which ruled from 332 to 31 BC.

Fortunately for us, many of these inventions’ imprints were documented either in stone or in physical books before they were destroyed as a result of natural disasters or invading armies. Today, we can go back and reconstruct much of what happened during those tumultuous times from scattered fragments of information. But in many cases, authorities cover up inexplicable details, information that can be found in the construction of so many ancient ruins all over the world.

These seemingly inconceivable facts of ancient building, seen by all but yet considered as impossible by the academic environment, were accomplished only a few thousand years ago, but explanation of how these activities were attempted or completed remains lacking.

Doesn’t matter who we are or from what background we came, we are certain that much of the earth’s history, as well as our own, is deliberately covered or forgotten today. We think that many of these ancient artifacts, together with numerous impossible ancient megaliths, discovered precisely positioned in ancient ruins throughout the world, are convincing evidence that an ancient civilization previously possessed incredibly superior precision machinery.

Volda’s ancient star-shaped holes

The holes of ancient stars, which have been discovered at a number of different ancient locations on the planet, are one of the many fascinating and potentially hazardous features that we have lately recognized. These holes were identified at many distinct ancient sites.

These strange, ancient, star-shaped holes were found carved into hard stone in Volda, Norway – a city that was once home to numerous Norse settlers and is today listed as one of the most important sites for archaeologists in the country.

Although areas like Puma Punku and the Giza basalt plateau have precise holes drilled several feet into the extremely hard stones, these star holes were strangely produced in the shape of stars. Discovered in Volda region of Norway, these extraordinary marks in the rock might be proof of ancient technology considerably superior to our own today, not to mention our recent predecessors.

How and why were these holes formed?

While a number of these one-of-a-kind holes can be found in Volda, others have been discovered in the neighbouring region of the Flynt County in Massachusetts district, each with a slightly different shape.

This star-shaped hole (with seven sides) was found by contractors on Friday November 30, 2007 in Volda, Norway.the Norwegian 5 - kroner coin is 25 mm in diameter. The hole is approx 65 - 70 mm in diameter.

Are these seemingly inconceivable holes proof of a long-lost advanced civilization and its sophisticated technology? Surprisingly, when the star holes develop, they only cover a portion of the overall length of the hole, leaving the rest of the hole with the characteristic round cylindrical shape.

However, the length of the rifled grooves and their position in the hole vary significantly with each hole, occasionally appearing in the centre of a rock.

Many have tried to explain these mysterious holes by the ancient and undeveloped drill system theory. But according to the Ancient Astronaut Theorists, a human’s hands could never generate such clean cuts or completely symmetrical forms. But, if we follow the argument, why are they star-shaped in the first place if they were formed using a drill?

At Karnak, which is a huge temple complex near Luxor, Egypt, many examples of ancient core drill holes, and one whose diameter is greater than a human hand. As you can see in the photograph the wall of the drill itself was thinner than 21st century examples, and even engineers and mining experts that have seen it cannot explain what material the drill would have been made of to maintain its shape and stability at being so thin. © Image Credit: Ancient Origin

Moreover, scientists couldn’t find any ancient drill bits or drilling systems that could bore into rocks and produce smooth star-shaped holes. Instead we found evidence that there are so many such mysterious holes around the world, considering different civilizations and different times.

Were the star-shaped holes in Volda created in the 1930s?

The origin of the star-shaped holes in Volda might be not as mysterious as speculations would have it to be. Several local blacksmiths have recently revealed that star-shaped holes were quite common in the old days. They say that the hole in Volda most likely was drilled in the 1930s, and that there are even more holes similar to the one in Volda at other locations. The holes were created when the workmen used a six-sided drill head to carry out mountain drilling. However, theorists have questioned this solution, citing other ancient precise holes and cuts discovered in various parts of the world.
