Numerous footprints of people or of beings, related to a man, were saved in a number of places of the Earth. They were met in rocks of many different ages.
Footprints of people in sediments of 1,3 million years old in Mexico
The chain of such footsteps was found out in 2005 in Mexico by British-Mexican expedition under the direction of the doctor Silvia Gonzales from John Moore's University in Liverpool. The specialist on geochronology Paul Renne from Stanford University dated the sediments in which footprints had been met. It determined that its age compounds about 1,3 million years. Thus, Homo Sapiens (the scientists discovered footsteps did not doubt that they were left by some representatine of this kind) existed on the American continent in the beginning of Pleistocene. When, under the classic scheme of origin and evolution of people, there were not them yet.
Trying to solve the problem, the scientists made haste to pronounce that the footprints were left not by people … Oh, as easily at times, being adapted under the generally accepted game rules, to pronounce the colleagues in incompetence or to refuse from own supervision.
Footprints of humanoids in Lower Cretaceous clayey limestones of the Paluxy river, the USA
Even more mysterious footprints of barefooted and shod foots of humanoids together with tracks (traces) of dinosaurs were found out by the group of scientists under the direction of Stanley E. Taylor in 1968 in the bed of the Paluxy river near to Glenn Rose and the State park "The valley of dinosaurs" in the State of Texas (the USA). They investigated four chain of such footsteps in Lower Cretaceous clayey limestones (marls) which were deposited 135-140 million years ago.
Unusual picture from the remote past was slightly opened to looks of the explorers - "people" and dinosaurs walked in the same place at the same time. It indicated "double" footprints when a dinosaur stepped over a "human" track (print) and on the contrary - when a "man" trod upon a track already left by a dinosaur.
The majority of footprints had fuzzy (eroded) oblong form, but a heel
and five toes were distinctive on some of them, and a big toe was disposed not as at monkeys, and as at the modern people at that. Location of some footprints even made it possible to conclude that a"man" chased a dinosaur.
Similar footprints were found out in 1910. After 1968 a lot of specialists studied them and, first of all, creationists. Attitude towards footprints from Glenn Rose was different at them. Somebody considered them or, at least, the most clear prints of a five-toed foot, by a fabrication artfully cut in rock by means of a chisel. Others related them to erosion of limestone. Third compared these footprints with tracks of walking on two limbs dinosaurs. Fourth (G. Ziller, J. Morris, K. Bot, D. Patton, etc.) insist upon that they were left by people.
Footprints in the Paluxy river - tracks (traces) of fossil reptiles walking on two limbs?
It is quite likely that the part of these footprints is really a falsification. However, the majority of footprints is nevertheless genuine and have no the slightest relation to limestone erosion. Availability of "double" footprints, and presence of pair footprints left by right and left foots, and squeezing-out (pressing-out) of fossil mud along the edges of footprints, and that many footsteps were found out by G. Taylor in beds which had been dug out from under limestone stratum lying on a surface, confirm this. Most probably, they belong to fossil reptiles walking on two limbs with a size of a foot from 26-27 cm (a number of explorers names them by tracks of "teenagers") ut to 38 sm õ 19 sm. At least, I was convinced of it by the biologist Glen J. Kuban investigating footprints in the eightieth and ninetieth years of the past century together with other American explorers .
But steps of these reptiles have absolutely other dynamics, a step ratio to length of a foot and weight distribution of a foot on the ground, than steps of dinosaurs. They are close to steps of people on all these parameters. Probably, they were left by dragon-people, like viyevichs...
Footprints of humanoids in Jurassic clayey limestone of the Kugitangtau ridge, Turkmenia
Two chains of clear prints of barefooted "human" foots of 26-27 cm at length were found out in 1983 aslope the Kugitangtau mountain ridge near Hodzho-pil-Ata village (Sacred Father of Elefants) in the southeast Turkmenistan by professor Holmuod Kudoykuliev. These footprints adjoining to more than 3000 tracks (traces) of dinosaurs, were saved in Jurassic clay limestone, having age of 150-200 million years.
Afterwards in this place expedition of Turkmen academy of sciences under the direction of the corresponding member, director of Institute of geology of Turkmen Academy of Science Kurbon Amannijazov, and in 2000 Denis Swift from Institute of dinosaurs (Pensacola, the State of Florida, the USA) together with Turkmen scientists, triply worked. All explorers acknowledged likeness of footprints with footprints of men and recommended to carry out their further examination. (Excuse me, there are no photos of the footprints of satisfactory quality)
Here that K. Amannijazov told about them in 1983 :
"The front part of a foot of 10 cm at width is well delineated, there are the roundish hollows resembling toes: large, index, long... In the middle of a foot of a right leg is a narrow spot, a heel is roundish, 5 cm at width. We have discovered and other footprints, their length reached 30 cm, heels were more narrow, and a foot is wide. And a thumb was longer, and remaining ones lessened towards a little finger".
During expedition of 1987 in the time of detailed mapping of Sary-Kaya area K. Ammanijazov together with geologist Zagorodnev counted about 1000 tracks (traces) in various "walking" (sauntering) chains. There are altogether not less than 16 such chains. Footprints had various form. There were prints similar to footprints of a human being, left by his (or her) right and left leg. The depth of their impression in the ground was enough imposing - about 6 sm, and distance from a heel of the left leg to a phalanx part of the right one compounded almost 80 cm. All these were evidence of large height and great force of the "humanoid" which had left these tracks.
There were also and oblong gigantic footprints resembling a pumpkin or an electrical bulb. K. Ammanijazov spoke that "to name them by footprints of "humanoid beings" would be too bold, however to attribute these strange prints to tracks of dinosaurs I also could not: their form sharply differed from all earlier known prints of dinosaurs. The length of footprints mainly compounded 66 cm. Half of this distance, and even more, fitted on a heel, the width of which was 13 cm. But we were much more impressed with length of a step of the mysterious being - from 180 to 210 cm". According to K. Amannijazov, such gigants could enter single combat with dinosaurs. Perhaps, it were dragon-people again!?
Footprints of humanoids in Upper Carboniferous rocks in district Roksall, the USA
Even more ancient footprints of humanoids was discovered by the American geologist W.G. Burrughs in 1931 in several miles to the northwest from Maunt-Vernon in district Roksall, the State of Kentucky (the USA). He let know of them in 1938, being the professor and decane of faculty of geology of the college of Berrea city in the State of Kentucky. Ten such tracks had been found out in Upper Carboniferous strata (more than 250 million years). Tracks on sandstone were left by a walking on two limbs creature with the size of a foot 24 õ 10 cm. Under W. Burrughs' testimony, "each footprint had five toes and clear distinctive characteristic sagging. Toes had been widely placed that is peculiar to human being never wearing shoes".

The analysis of footprints spent by W. Burrughs under a microscope revealed that around soles which put the greatest pressure, grains of sand are pressed together more strongly, than between toes and foot arches. It diminishes a possibility of mystification to a minimum. To make such, it was necessary to alter sand framework then - 250 million years ago. W.G. Burrughs' conclusions had been confirmed by other explorers.
To exclude completely a probability of falsification, W. Burrughs had shown the find to the sculptor Kent Previette. The last didn't found any signs of engraving even under strong magnification and in infrared pictures.
Footprints of humanoids in Upper Carboniferous rocks in other places of the USA
Analogous prints of barefooted "human" foots in Carboniferous sediments had been discovered in district Jackson and some other districts of the State of Kentucky, and also in a number of places from Pennsylvania to Missouri. Tracks from Pennsylvania and Missouri were learnt by the curator of department of paleontology of vertebrates of Smitsonovsky institute, the doctor C.W. Gilmore which reported that they genuine.
Footprints of humanoids in Mesozoic and Cenozoic sediments in different places of the terrestrial globe
Tracks of barefooted foots similar to footprints of a man, were found out in 1835 after strong heavy rains near to Carson in the State of Nevada (the USA). They left imprints in Triassic sandstones having age from 213 to 248 million years. The length of foots of the being which had left them was about 51 cm.
Footprints of people or of beings similar to a man were found out in Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Spain, Georgia, China, Shri Lanka, Indonesia, Tanzania, the republic of South Africa, Australia and a number of other countries.
