Scientists have discovered in Africa the cemetery of aliens: the history of hoaxes

In recent days, in media were published numerous reports of so-called "opening the cemetery of aliens in Rwanda." It is reported that a group of scientists from Sweden, has discovered in the jungles of Rwanda (Africa) the two hundred graves of unknown beings, with the growth of more than two meters, with a strange skeleton and especially the strange skull, implying the absence of these creatures of the mouth, nose and eyes.
As pointed out by the so-called Swiss anthropologist Dr. Hugo Childs, participating in the excavations - these creatures were buried in mass graves of five beings, at least 500 years ago. Immediately, "the researchers" suggest that these creatures apparently of extraterrestrial origin, who died as a result of infection with a virus or bacteria on the Eearth (similar to the novel by Wells “War of the Worlds ").
It is surprising, that the beings found are "well preserved", which is pretty hard to do for 500 years in this humid and hot climate of Rwanda. It is also unclear, what makes the “Swiss anthropologist” among scientists from Sweden. But, most importantly, the story of the "Cemetery of the aliens from Rwanda" is quite unscientific.
Rwanda is located in the heart of Africa, not far south of the equator. In the west, on the border with Democratic Republic of Congo, located Kivu lake, and there are river Rusizi, that are that are part of the East African Rift Valley. At the heart of Rwanda is its capital - the city of Kigali, near which were actually found "aliens". The climate of Rwanda is sub-equatorial, seasonally moist, soft but due to the considerable relief height above sea level. In the capital of the country (at a height of more than a mile), the mean monthly temperatures throughout the year do not exceed 21 degrees Celsius, with rain falling an average of 1500 mm. Thus, the climate of Rwanda leaves no chance to save the beings long as 500 years.
Interesting to know the stories about the sources of the "Cemetery of aliens." Most of the foreign media suggest as a source of Russian website pravda.ru, which is reportedly the first news about the alien cemetery on June 24, 2011. A lot of media reports, that the discovery was made by a group of Swedish scientists, but for the first time in Swedish information about this "discovery" only appeared on June 27, 2011 - three days after the publication on the website pravda.ru, and throughout the media in Swedish language does not say about the Swedish scientists, involved in this "discovery" and in the Swedish press found a link to the website pravda.ru.
However, as it turned out, the story of the "Cemetery of the aliens from Rwanda" is very old, appeared for the first time in 2009. It is interesting, that this story was involved, according to many media, a Swiss anthropologist Dr. Hugo Childs, and with Dr. Hugo Childs everything is not clear, as never anthropologist with the same name is not officially confirmed their participation in this "discovery".
On 10 December 2009, the disclose.tv reported, that Swiss anthropologist Hugo Childs found in Rwanda the "Cemetery of aliens", and the news from December 10, 2009 was almost completely repeated at the end of June 2011. The news about the "Cemetery of aliens" can not be news - it's quite an old story, made up by one of the websites and then forgotten, but newly gained fame with the publication in a haunted Internet resource. Incidentally, the scientific evidence of the real existence of this "Cemetery of aliens in Rwanda" was not provided nor in 2009 nor in 2011, and no group of scientists has not confirmed its official participation in this "mission" to Rwanda. The news about aliens is just another hoax, built on a completely unscientific data.
