This is a fascinating story about a box belonging to Daniel Christiansen. There is little doubt that something profound happened to Mr. Christiansen that started him down the road of creating and assembling this material (more than 100 pieces). Mr. Christiansen is the artist that sketched a series of UFOs and alien figures which were found in this 29 inch by 38 inch wooden box(see photo below) in the garbage. He is probably a WWII veteran and could be of Dutch origin, he clearly had art and probably drafting skills. Many of his drawing are of UFOs and aliens, much of the material is very technical. To my knowledge he was never interviewed or went public with any of this material. This information has only been public for a few days and it is already moving in on half a million views. The box was found outside of a home in Florida.
Many of the details surrounding Mr. Christiansen are unclear and the facts are only just emerging, the documents are dated from the 1930's to the 1980's. If anyone can add to the story or correct any facts it would be greatly appreciated.

A box has been found containing detailed drawings of alien beings, an unidentified flying object, and transcripts exploring the link between alien encounters and ancient religions.
A user on Imgur posted a series of photos showing the contents of an old wooden box, roughly 29 inches by 38 inches, that his friend found in the garbage. The post had more than 350,000 views as of this morning, about 20 hours after the user uploaded it. It has not been independently verified.

The musty box contains clues, but also raises many questions—it’s a mystery.
It appears to have belonged to a man named Daniel J. Christainsen who lived in Florida but was a native of the Netherlands. He may have been a WWII veteran—the box contained a blank paper with the Veterans Administration Medical Center header.

He may have been an engineer, or at least was technically inclined—the box contained technical drawings of roller bearing designs. He seems to have had an alien encounter.

He writes of “an apparition on the Tampa Bay Observation” on July 7, 1977.

He draws alien beings and describes them: “Every one had four faces and every one had four wings.”

One of the faces appears humanoid, while the other three appear animal-like—a cow-like creature and bird-like creature are among them. The humanoid figure has hoofs for feet.
Christiansen recalls biblical references he feels refer to alien encounters. It is unclear whether his drawings relate to his own experiences or whether they are depictions of historical accounts. He also references a sighting in Brazil in 1967 by an American tourist.
He writes in reference to the biblical account by Ezekiel: “The fire that had the colour of amber had to await the day when electric lights were available on earth before it would allow a literal interpretation; so would the eyes of the creatures and … the wheels need to await the day of electronics and television before a reasonable interpretation would be possible.
“It would in fact be necessary to await the many technological inventions before interpreting the 2,500 years old experience, which Ezekiel found expedient to call visions.” The figures with the animal heads recall figures from ancient paintings and sculptures.
In Tibet and some other regions, deities were sometimes depicted with the head of a horse or other animal. Sometimes the animal head was the main head, but sometimes the deity would have multiple heads, one or more of which would be animal heads. The drawings also recall the Greek minotaur (man-bull figure referenced in Greek mythology) and similar figures.
