The phenomenon of crop circles, mysterious patterns appearing overnight in fields, often with intricate and complex designs, has been a topic of intrigue and debate for decades. The term "crop circle" was first coined in the early 1980s, following a surge in the appearance of these patterns in the countryside of southern England. However, references to similar phenomena can be traced back to as early as the 17th century, suggesting a much older origin.

From simple circles and rings in the 1970s, crop circles have evolved into increasingly complex formations, incorporating geometric shapes, mathematical ratios, and even elements of sacred geometry. The patterns can span hundreds of feet, yet despite their size, they often appear overnight, adding to the enigma surrounding their creation.
