Discovered a "Liliput" in real life

Do you remember the city of Liliput? a tiny city inhabited by half a million Lilliputian smallnesses in the Gulliver's Travels.Now it seems that this literary city has a twin sister in reality.The remains of an ancient city inhabited by tiny people have been discovered in Iran.We do not know if Jonnathan Swift relied on a specific country to devise that fantastic place where Gulliver places in the first part of his famous novel, but the curious coincidences do not stop calling us attention.

Dwarf or extraordinarily small human persons?

The world of science and archeology sometimes brings us real challenges, real challenges that leave a lot of room for imagination and fantasy.A country like Liliput's "Gulliver's travels" but in reality ? Obviously not, but the metaphor is so attractive that this is how the discovery has been transmitted to most social media and networks: «A Liliput in the real world».

Recently, we received the news that a group of archaeologists had discovered in the Iranian province of South Jorasan , the remains of an ancient dwarf city.Is that possible? Let's go in parts.

The sites of this curious and ancient city are in the current village of Majunik. A place that would have served as a home to real dwarfs, people of very-very short stature who lived in the year 6,000 BC.Incredible, right? And it is that archaeologists warn us that Majunik, was precisely part of a very old civilization called Aratta , mostly housed by very small people.

Discovered a

The most curious of all, is that It was precisely in this area where a few years ago, specifically in 2005, a really small body was found that caught the attention of the entire scientific community.It was a mummified body that only measures 25 centimeters.This body at first glance might seem The body of a baby, but not so, scientists and archaeologists have discovered that this body belonged to a person of about 16 or 17 years old.Very curious, no doubt.And this is not the first discovery made in the world of remains of tiny humans, in other parts of our planet, archaeologists, have found bodies if milares.Do you think the dwarves would have really existed?

Majunik is not Liliput , of course, but he still has his interest in thinking that there was a city where they lived in most people of very short stature, people who would surprise us by their tiny size.
