Case · UFO Afrinews No 14, July 1996
Two Brazilian hunters lose time and find a satchel with strange writing
Brazil (place not stated), Brazil
Outside the region. Hind reprinted this case from elsewhere; it has a file here but no place on the map.
What was reported
The only satchel precedent Hind can recall is a Brazilian case, investigated by a lawyer, in which two hunters lost a considerable stretch of time and afterwards found a satchel lying on the ground marked with unfamiliar writing. Hind carried a slide of the script to the Middle East, suspecting Aramaic or ancient Hebrew, and later approached a linguistics professor at the University of Jerusalem who specialised in ancient languages; as soon as UAPs and Brazil were mentioned he refused to have anything to do with it. She cites the case beside the Bindura report and appeals for other satchel cases.
What Hind made of it
Treated as a genuine parallel to Bindura; she is scathing about the professor's lack of scientific curiosity.
In their words
-
So much for scientific curiosity!
