Origin Unknown: The Mystery of the Salzburg Cube

  • Summary

  • The Salzburg Cube is a small block of iron that was found buried in a coal seam in Wolfsegg, Austria, in 1865. The Cube became famous when some researchers recently claimed it to be an out-of-place artifact: a piece of worked iron manufactured from an unknown source found buried in a 20-million-year-old coal seam. Some scientists originally identified the Cube as being of meteoric origin, but there is no unanimous opinion on what exactly the Salzburg Cube is. For some, it is one of the many so called ‘out of place artifacts’, controversial objects that science cannot explain.
