of Anthropology & Folklore, CSU Northridge) According to Pliny the Elder, these druid eggs were used to cure illness, and if you looked through the hole in these stones, you would be able to see supernatural creatures.” “Druid eggs are oval or roundish stones, often made of a calcinatious material, like this. They believe it may represent extraterrestrial technology…and as evidence, point to the Druid’s Egg, or “snake stone.” While the snake and egg are both considered fertility symbols, Ancient Astronaut Theorists suggest that the combination of the two may hold another meaning. And the Greek caduceus, a staff carried by the messenger god Hermes, consists of two serpents intertwined, closely resembling the design on the Algarve Egg. In Greek mythology, Asclepius, the god of medicine, is always depicted with a serpent-entwined rod. “If you look at this, this could be referred to as the origin of that staff that is used in medicine with the snake around it.” And in Mesopotamia, the rod was regarded as the symbol of the power of the gods.”
And this thing, up the middle here – resemble the rod…which throughout history has been a symbol of power, of creation. We’re talking of something that’s incredibly old. You can see it’s been buried, it’s got the Earth discoloring it, but it’s sand – white sandstone. And the center of their religion on the island was a large white egg stone egg. There is…there’s an interesting old legend, a Slavic legend, from areas like Bosnia and Yugoslavia, which says that they originally came from a land in the western ocean, which sank. “Which is very interesting to see these different eggs, or these navels or omphalos, from all around the world – Symbols of creation.” It’s really a piece of sculpture, or was a piece of sculpture.” As you can see, this is a lot more than just a simple stone that’s been dug up. Most of them are just big lumps of stone that have been dug up and erected, with a little bit of shaping. “They classify it as a menhir, a standing stone, which there are many all the way up the west coast of Portugal France, Brittany and into the Gaelic countries, Ireland, Wales, Scotland. “How does this museum classify this stone?”
Author Peter Daughtrey has studied the egg meticulously in an attempt to discover the story behind this mysterious stone artifact. Today, the Algarve Egg is on display in the Lagos Museum, 19 miles from where it was discovered. The egg has been dated to at least 3500 BC, and scientists conclude it could be even older. Farmers digging a well for agriculture on land overlooking the ancient harbor come across a mysterious object 15 feet beneath the Earth – a six-foot-long limestone egg with a mysterious design protruding from its surface in three places.
