It seems like conspiracist always have wacky theory on the go, whether it's about the illuminati, chemtrails or 9/11 being an inside job, they're forever claiming that reality isn't what it appears to be.
Anyway, they've another theory to work on after a painting from 1670 was found that appears to depict an iPhone.
Entitled Man Handing a Letter to a Woman in the Entrance Hall of a House the painting was created by Pieter de Hooch around 350 years before iPhones were invented.
Get your tin foil hats out lads, it could only possibly be time travel!

Maybe someone painted over it? Maybe it's just been Photoshoped? I don't know.

They do have a point actually, it does look a lot like an iPhone. But there again it could just be an iPhone shaped rock. Or more likely it could just be a badly drawn letter like the painting's title would suggest.
And you'd think if it was time travel there would be more evidence of it about.
The CEO of Apple, Tim Cook has even speculated on what the apparent depiction of the device might mean.
Talking about the painting, he said: "I always thought I knew when the iPhone was invented, but now I'm not so sure anymore."
Will leave this one for you to decide lads, let me know what you think it is the comments section...
