Strange phenomena : Trovant stone from Romania
There are some strange rock phenomena that exist in this world. Perhaps you've read about sailing rock in Death Valley, California or the ringing rock phenomenon in Pennsylvania. Well, it turns out there is also a rock phenomenon that can grow (growing rock).
This stone is named Trovant stone taken from the synonym of the German term 'sandsteinkonkretionen' which means cemented sand. The Trovants stones are located in a small village called Costesti, Valcea County which also has now become a UNESCO protected Trovants Nature Museum. Although the museum, but the museum is a nature reserve is an open museum with an area of 1.1 hectares.
Characteristics of stone Trovants themselves have a variety of forms ranging from round, oval, to resemble the number 8 with the smallest size of millimeters to meters-meters. Stone Trovants is a sphere of sand that can grow and grow like a living thing. This process is even faster when the stones are showered with heavy rain, then in the not too long the stones will develop.
The stones with the size of a millimeter will be meters. Stone Trovants also rumored to be able to move without any help. Uniquely, Trovants stone is similar to a tree that if grown will have a new twig, as well as Trovants stone. This stone will have a new branch of sandstone clumps in some parts that then enlarged.
weird right? Wait a minute, it turns out when the division is done on this stone body, found the colored circle / cambium pattern commonly found on dikotil tree trunks. This is what makes this rock is said to grow.
According to the results of research on Trovants rocks, on the shell of these stones there is a kind of mineral content is high enough. So when the surface is wet, especially when the rain water, then the mineral content will spread throughout the surface of the stone so that the sand-sand in the rock will develop by itself.
However, although these stones have unique and unusual characteristics, but in reality people living around the village of Costesti have never privileged these stones. They even sometimes make these stones as a material for making tombstones or used as building materials.
Luigi Pernier along with Sir Arthur Evans studied the Phaistos disk for years but failed to translate it. Since that time also many researchers who are interested to translate what the meaning of the series-dere mysterious symbol. But just like Pernier they all failed.
Some theories suggest that it may contain something religious, it may be an ancient ritual, or it may be an offering to the goddess of the earth, even a musical note. I have no idea. One thing is for sure, Phaistos Disk is still in need of in-depth research to be able to solve the puzzle in it. Currently this artifact is located in Heraklion Archaelogical Museum in Heraklion, Crete, Greece.
