The bizarre flying saucer-shaped object was dug up during excavation work by a coal mining company in Siberia's Kuznetsk Basin, Russia. The object was described as “perfectly circular with a diameter of about 1.2 meters and weighing about 440lbs,” that is, about 200 kilograms.
The miners called archeologists to examine the object. Archeologists said they believe it is a man-made object. But given the depth at which it was found, about 40 meters underground, much deeper than the 25 meters depth at which mammoth bones thousands of years old were found in the area, the disk is possibly of prehistoric origins and thus thousands of years old.
Excavator Boris Glazkov, 40, who found the object, said: "I have to say it wasn't hard to see as it was really distinctive and large.

"I've never seen anything like this object, which is obviously man-made out, here in the middle of nowhere before. It is a real mystery."
Some ufologists claim that this is a small monument to an ancient race of extraterrestrials who appeared on Earth thousands of years ago.
