The authenticity of the find has since been certified. According to archaeologist Yuri Golubev, it appears that, in this case, the discovery surprised scientists by its nature, at least \u2013 unusual, and liable to re-write history (or prehistory).<\/p>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">It is not the first time that an artifact, an ancient object, like this one, has been found in the region. But, surprisingly well-preserved, this specific artifact is \u2013 at first glance, inlaid in rock (which is understandable since the peninsula is home to numerous volcanoes). Subjected to analysis, the object was found to be made of metal parts that seem to form a mechanism, a gear which may be of a type similar to a watch or computer. The astonishing aspect is that all the pieces were dated to 400 million years ago. Yury Gobulev commented:<\/div>\n<p><em>\u201cWe got a call from the prefect of Tigil. He told us that hikers who were walking in that place, found these remains embedded in rock. We went to the place indicated, and initially we could not understand what we were looking at.
