The Mystery
Do you believe that we are alone
in this universe? I don’t think that is true. Every time
humans reach to great discoveries, they found out that they
still students in the school of life.
Let me tell you about a mysterious story that actually
happened.
The Green Children
One day in August 1887 near the
small village of Banjos, Spain, a boy and a
girl walked out of a cave. Some peasants
working in a field saw them, and were very amazed. The two
children had skin as green as grass.
When seen closer the children
were found to have almond shaped eyes of an Asiatic type. They
could not speak Spanish and wore clothes of material never
before seen in the Spain of the 19th century. No
one could understand there language and no one could analyze
the fabric. For five days the boy and girl would not eat any’
Of the various foods brought to them. Finally they began to
eat beans. By then the boy was so weakened that he died, but
the girl survived. The green color of her skin gradually
faded.
After learning some Spanish the
girl described the country she came from and how she had left
it. Her story only made the mystery deeper. She said her
native land had no sun at all, and was separated from a sunny
land by a river. One day a sudden whirlwind had lifted her and
the boy and deposited them in the cave.
The green girl of Banjos lived
for only five years more. The mystery of how she and the boy
had appeared in Spain was never solved
Brought from the encyclopedia of
(The Supernatural, Enigmas and Mysteries).
