Ancient Mysteries

I would like to focus mainly on a few places of power rather then focus on various cultures etc.  There are many ancient mysterious things we do not understand like who built Easter Island, or What's the purpose of Stonehenge, or why is Sedona such a place of power? What about the Crystal Skulls that were found what is the secret behind them. We live on a planet with quite a history some of it we cannot decipher. I have a variety of theories why these places exist. I think they were built because of some special occurrence like perhaps aliens use to land in Sedona and this became such a place of power. Perhaps the statues on Easter Island were made by a unknown civilization who made them and they could be to signal visitors from other worlds but some statues are several tons up to 90 tons is the largest. The skulls I think are the key to something possibly a key to a tomb or possibly they were made in another world maybe they foretell how human  life began. Some say they open up vortexes to other worlds. We do not understand many of the Ancient Mysterious yet there are 100s new ruins always found, artifacts, places of power. Why would such simple civilizations build temples devoted to the stars, some have pictures of strange beings, aliens, creatures, even a man who is half man and half bird. I read that in Florida they found secret ruins that could be 1000s of  years old these are just a few things out there to ponder about. There is more to mankind then alot of us think and these historical places and things could be the key that foretells all. I will go over a few places and things the general ones that most have heard of so you can familiarize yourself with them. To me these are very paranormal and some would say they are not but we still to this day do not know much about the ancient times. My theory from these places and objects it shows that A. Cataclysms did take place 1000s of years ago B. Man is alot older then we think and C. Extraterrestrials did visit our planet and probably had alot to do with these ancient places and artifacts.

  A little History On Easter Island

Rick

They say the civilization that existed on Easter Island were cannibalistic however what made them interesting is that they somehow were unlike any other civilization on earth or let alone connected to any mainland. One tribe was called long ears which were dominant the other short ears which were the slaves which later revolted and pushed all the statues down which mainly guarded villages and the coast. The mysterious thing though is nobody really knows who built the statues just speculation it was the tribes or how they were moved although we do know the rock they were formed from was lava rocks but of a different kind inexistent on the island now. They say the island is also  called Rapa Nui which means generally Island in center of world which it is in the center of the pacific ocean and triangular. This island is very untouched by civilization and is at least 2500 miles from South America so the only way there now is by plane. Jacob Roggeveen called it Easter Island in 1722 when he discovered it. The interesting thing is that the island was said to be inhabited by Polynesians in 300 or 400 AD and its possible that when they arrived here they made statues for there gods which there are over 300 of them around the island. They have a set of  7 statues which are said to be the explorers that the king of an island dispatched to find a new home which was Easter Island those statues are aligned with the moon and of course have other theories. In the 1950s most statues were resurrected and pulled back up to there regular positions some are buried deep beneath the ground. The runway on the island is first class and is an emergency spot if the shuttle needed to land there. All in all its a very eerie island and still most of it is not understood.

Theories on how the Moai were moved

Unknown

Many Rapa Nui people believe that the statues were moved and erected by 'mana' a magical force. Great kings of a long-gone era simply used their mana to command the moai to move to the distant sites and stand there. Mana is a word and concept you hear frequently in South Seas lore. The people of Rapa Nui believed that the moai also possessed mana, which was instilled at the time their white coral eyes were put in place, and that the moai used their mana to protect the people of the island. Today none of the moai have genuine coral eyes - and thus the mana is no more.

The intervention of Extraterrestrials - the most infamous of these writers is Erich Von Daniken who suggests that a small group of 'intelligent beings' were stranded there and taught the natives to make 'robot-like' statues. His main thrust is that the stone from which the statues are made is not found on the island- a complete fabrication. This links with theories that Easter island was once part of the lost civilization of flying machines.

Other theories include - men sliding the moai along on layers of yams and sweet potatoes.

The generally accepted belief is that they were transported on sledges or log rollers and then levered erect using piles of stones and long logs.

"Thor Heyerdahl, whose books Kon-Tiki and Aku-Aku stirred great interest in Easter Island, conducted an experiment showing that an upright stone statue could be moved using ropes, tilting and swiveling it along. But the experiment was conducted on a flat surface for only a short distance, and this theory, like Heyerdahl's theory that the islands of the South Pacific were settled from east to west from South America rather than from west to east from Southeast Asia, is not considered plausible.

All but a few of the moai of Easter Island were carved at Rano Raraku, a volcanic cone that contains a crater lake. It is an eerie spot. Scattered all around Rano Raraku are 394 moai in every stage of evolution. Some are fallen - a common sight around the island - and some appear to have only heads, although they are really full figures that have been nearly buried by soil over the centuries. For reasons that remain a mystery

Little Bit Of History On Sedona

Back in the 70s if not earlier, some people in Sedona, AZ became convinced that the red rocks which characterized the desert landscape, and which had been featured in many western films, emitted a vivid psychic energy. In the early 80's, a gifted psychic named Page Bryant* identified the basic vortex locations; she is generally credited with applying the term "vortex" to confluences or eddies of subtle energy. Thus that word - and the names of Boynton Canyon, Bell Rock, Cathedral Rock and the Airport Mesa - were imported into the lexicon of American "pop mysticism." Today it is thought that Sedona and locations in Paris, Egypt and Peru - and elsewhere - are parts of "the planetary energy grid," a network of living energies that constitutes earth's spiritual infrastructure.

Little More History And Theories

By  Sedona Vortex Connection

History - Around 8,000 B.C., it is thought that the Paleo Indians came to the Sedona area via a natural land bridge connecting Ancient Asia and North America. By 700 A.D, The Hohokam arrived and introduced irrigation and farming.

About 1100 A.D. - The Sinaguans joined the Anasazi in the area. They taught them to build sophisticated multi-storied buildings. Many of these ruins can be seen today.

Late 1300 A.D. - Unexplainably these people disappeared suddenly. Remnants of their corn cobs showed they were still roasting on their fires!

Near 1583 A.D. - The Spanish start exploration of the area looking for silver and gold.

Early 1800 A.D. - Pioneers, trappers, and prospectors started to arrive. They began to lay false claim to traditional hunting grounds. The Indian people hotly contested this invasion, yet they were doomed to fail at protecting their lands and preserving their ways of life. The U.S. Army viewed them as savages needing to be subdued or killed. General Crook was given the final assignment to crush the Apache rebellion in which the brave deeds of Geronimo were made forever infamous. Nevertheless, a permanent Military outpost was erected called Camp Lincoln in 1865. It was from this post that the army succeeded in flushing out the last of the area's rightful inhabitants. Camp Lincoln was renamed Camp Verde and the General Crook Memorial Trail is still a painful remainder of the infamous "March of Tears, where the tribes were forced to march south to the San Carlos Reservation. Many died during the journey.

1876 - First cabin is built in Oak Creek Canyon.

1901 - Mr. and Mrs.Theodore Schnebly settle the area and name the first post office station Sedona- after Theodore Schnebly's wife.

 My Thoughts On Sedona

Sedona is what it is an area with a portal just like the Bermuda Triangle or anywhere else. The Indians are said to have created it but rumors say that it existed and this is what made the Indians interested in the first place. This is an area of high paranormal and UFO activity. The UFO's often seen up here are giant balls of light and sometimes they look like ghost lights in some of the canyons. Tourist visit here to get into with there spiritual self by doing meditation, reiki, healing themselves etc. Perhaps because its such a peaceful beautiful and ancient place perhaps its a mindset as to why people go there and become healed of disorders and sickness. The whole Anasazi tribe had disappeared no trace of them ever found of course there is more to the story but the fact is were they taken? Did the vortex open up and swallow them? Sedona was formed 700 million years ago from lava then it eroded into beautiful canyons and formations. Generally my theory is that the activity there is probably much higher then other places due to the vortex in the area. Vortexes simple are gateways to other dimensions things can go in and come out. Alot of people hope to connect with other dimensions, aliens things of that sort when they visit. Because of the vortexes often people find prehistoric footprints in the dirt and see many different dimensional beings. Yes this is real folks something definitely is occurring in this ancient location.

Stonehenge

Many theories about who built one of Britain's oldest site are in question some say the people of Atlantis made it some say the Greeks or Druids. The theories range all the way from human sacrifices, to magick rituals to astronomy as to how it was used. To make things even more interesting there are Stonehenge's all over the world just to name a few places 40 miles north of Boston, MA and Ireland has one.  The stones seemed to be aligned with eclipses and things of that sort. Not much is still known about them just that just miles away many crop circles seem to appear that have unknown symbols of some kind. The site is supposingly 1300 to 6000 BC old however its said it was a temple with at one time a roof where druids would study the stars perhaps not the stars perhaps contact with extraterrestrials? The stones are 28 tons and come from far away since no stones like that are present near by. The stones are made to be a solar calendar and when the sun sets it can be measured between the pillars. The problem I guess I have is that back 1000s of years ago most civilizations were not that advanced in astronomy to make such a monolithic structure so to this day we are unsure who built it and why really. Today if you were to visit it they have it chained off and you cannot touch it that's pretty unfortunate.

Dead Sea Scrolls

Written over 2000 years ago found by an Arab boy in a cave 15 miles outside of Jerusalem nobody knows who wrote them. The scrolls cover everything about divination, zodiacs, prophecies, the great flood, Christianity in the Palestine telling the orgin of Jews and Christians. These scrolls are still being deciphered and may reshape religious as we speak. Nobody knows who wrote them or why they were hidden in a cave for 2000 years but the photos show many shocking things and the time period does not match up with the bible. Was this a pretext of the bible or were we mislead. This dates back before the bible and although Jesus visited the Palestine lands that was not till later. So who wrote it a prophet, God? A saint? The answer remains unknown.

The Giza Necropolis 

The link between orion and the giza necropolis is unmistakable. Egyptologists would have you believe it does not exist and that the sphinx is only 4,500 years old.If this is so what about the erosion on the Sphinx? 
In 1989 Professor Robert Schoch of the Boston university conducted a study of the weathering patterns on the sphinx, it was originally believed that the unique weathering patterns was caused by the great flood.. Professor Schoch stated this assumption was wrong. He discovered that the weathering patterns was caused by precipitation (rainfall) and the last rainfall in this area of Egypt significant enough to cause this erosion was 5000-7000 bc.At least 2,500 years before the giza necropolis was believed to have been built.

After studying, I am not claiming to be an Egyptologist here! Graham Hancock and Robert Bauvals book "The message of the Sphinx" The arguments they put forth to the age of the Giza necropolis is very convincing. They claim that the Giza pyramids and the Sphinx was built 10,500bc.....At least 8000 years before the accepted age of the site.

So what does this mean? Who built it? It was not the ancient Egyptians for the race was too primitive at this time. Is it Antediluvian in origin? 

The Giza pyramids are an exact replica of the position of orion. This has been proved.


In Ancient Egyptian scripts, they refer to a time called zep tepi or the first time. This was a time when the Egyptian gods came to earth and lived in Egypt. They believed that the Giza site was built by the gods. So why would modern day Egyptologists have you believe otherwise? Anytime anyone gets near to a inkling of the truth the Egyptian government pulls the plug on the research. For example in 1993 a German scientist called Rudolph Gantenbrink was studying the passages in the Queens chamber inside the Great pyramid. The robot he designed climbed the 9 inch by 8 inch hole for 200 feet. On the video screen a picture of a door appeared. A small stone portcullis door with metal fittings. The laser on the robot disappeared underneath the door. As news of this discovery reached the wire. The Egyptian antiquities dept. Said there was nothing behind the door and as of yet they are still unable to open it.

My Theory On The Sphinx And Giza

I would also like to add a little something on the Sphinx. Edward Cayce the prophet said the hall of records lays under the paw of the Sphinx. In recent years they have found an area in the paw that is hallow they have no been able to get into it yet. This hall of records is said to contain information on Atlantis and many other earth mysteries. I believe the same civilization that built the Sphinx here built the one on the planet Mars. Nobody can understand how the Sphinx can be buried under the ground of 50 feet of sand. Water did exist at one time where the Sphinx is located over 12000 years ago which the Sphinx shows unusual erosion so its possible then that this Sphinx is older then what everybody says and was not made by the Egyptians after all.  I believe that these pyramids an Sphinx are Alien in orgin they perhaps serve as some sort of stargate or symbol from space. Many of the hieroglyphics on the walls show future events, depict things that exist in our time like the ones below from the Tomb Of Ptah-Hotep . Years ago a mummy was discovered and the government took over and removed it was it an alien body? The other question is why are there pictures on the walls of one of the pyramids with aliens big oval eyes, large heads and even disc like objects that look like UFOS??? Just something to ponder on.

An Article on Crystal Skulls
(by Joshua Shapiro, the Crystal Skull Explorer) 

Today the topic of quartz crystals is a hot item! You will find books about crystals in almost every bookstore (even non- metaphysical ones). There is a great battle occurring between holistic doctors/healers and the traditional medical profession about whether crystals can actually be effective in facilitating some form of healing. However, the intention of this article is to go beyond what has been publicly shared on this topic and discuss one of the most amazing uses of quartz by the ancients -- the Crystal Skulls. 




Ancient skulls
What are we referring to when we say a Crystal Skull? A Crystal Skull is a piece of quartz crystal shaped in the form (or approximating that) of a human skull. There are two types of skulls that exist, those which have been carved in a known process by modern-day craftsmen, thus these are called contemporary skulls and others which have been discovered in or near ancient ruins, known as old or ancient crystal skulls. The most interesting of these skulls are the ancients one which are human size or larger. In working with these ancient crystal skulls, we find an incredible energy generally linked to the artifact and many strange physical phenomena.

The places where the human sized ancient crystal skulls have been found in are predominately various ruins (Mayan, Aztec, etc ....) in Mexico or Central America with unsupported rumors of some skulls being discovered in South America. Recently, other crystal skulls have been uncovered in other parts of the world as well. Thus far, four types of ancient quartz skulls are known including clear quartz, amethyst (purple), rose quartz (pink) and smoky quartz (from grey to black). The contemporary carved Crystal Skulls are being manufactured in Brazil, China, the United States, Mexico and Germany and there are many local crystal stores which sell some of these skulls as well. The ancient skulls not only have baffled our scientists (when a skull was available for research) regarding how they were made, but they have a great deal of psychic phenomena that occur around them. For example, several of ancient skulls have been brought to Hewlett-Packard, located in the San Francisco area. Hewlett- Packard (HP), long known as a manufacturer of printers and computer systems, has one of the most extensive scientific and crystal research laboratories in the world. The scientist working at HP, who had a chance to work with some of these ancient crystal skulls were hard pressed to explain how a primitive culture could have carved crystal into such precise shapes and especially against the natural axis of the crystal without the use of sophisticated tools. 




Carving
Crystal is a substance that has a perfect symmetry of alignment on a molecular level. When a carver cuts crystal, if they attempt to carve against this axis, the crystal begins to shatter. Even with the elaborate laser equipment that is available today, it would be very difficult to manufacture such a Crystal Skull that is so precise and fashioned against the natural symmetry of the crystal. Of course, this does not even begin to address the strange psychic phenomena that has been recorded that occurs in the presence of an ancient Crystal Skull. 



A Brief Summary of known Ancient/Old Crystal Skulls 
There is no known process that can date a crystal skull. Carbon 14 dating works only on organic substances of which quartz crystal is not. Therefore, so far, one of the main ways to identify the older crystal skulls is to work with trained sensitives as well as observe people's experiences in the presence of a crystal skull. Alternatively, another method is look closely at the surface of the quartz for tool marks (using a high powered microscope) which is found in all the modern skulls that are carved today. If a large majority of the sensitives working with a particular crystal skull feels to be very old (could be a thousand or more years old), then we generally believe that this could be an ancient crystal skull. Also we consider the legends around the skulls as well or how powerfully they energetically affect people who touch them. Another good source in determing the age is to work with indigenous elders if they are open to do so and share their information. We are hoping in the future to come up with a better system to be able to classify and rate each new crystal skull that appears as well as develop more precise ways of testing. 

Please press the button below marked 'GO TO LIST' to find a partial list (as this list constantly changes) of various crystal skulls that have been considered to be ancient or old skulls, based on parapsychological research that has been conducted in the past. 



Other Characteristics of the Crystal Skulls and How Many
There are a number of other crystal skulls that have been reported which some people feel are ancient, but the ones I have listed in this article are the main skulls which first came out publicly. As to how many ancient (master) crystal skulls exists, there is a magic number of "13" that is discussed by many sensitives and researchers who have psychicly/physically worked with some of the purportedly ancient crystal skulls known. I personally feel due to the similarities found in the shape and size of the different skulls known, that we will uncover many more ancient skulls than this number that has been given. I would prefer to say that I believe there exists different sets of "13" skulls that might work together in some capacity, some of which the skulls all have the same form and shape and other sets with a greater variety. In time, we will have a better idea of the exact number as more and more crystal skulls come forward. 

What type of unusual phenomena has occurred around the Crystal Skulls? Some people who have been in the presence of the Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull have told the owner that they received a healing of some type or found that their psychic abilities became expanded afterwards. In other words, the crystal skulls have interacted with various individuals in some form of energetic fashion. Other people have fallen into a trance or gone unconscious when they are around this skull and come back with some new information or insights. But the most dramatic phenomena which occurs around the Crystal Skulls are the holographic images which appear inside of the crystal skulls when they are activated. This activation has occurred by exposing the crystal skull to a combination of color, light, sound or even human energy. Some of the scenes that people report seeing within the skulls (this is also called scrying) are UFOs, Big Foot, Unicorns, flying people, mermaids, dolphins, whales, mountains, other Crystal Skulls, alien beings, forest, caves, etc ... To this date, no one is quite sure of the exact process which generates these pictures because to do so would mean we would have to admit that it is possible for a solid object to change its form. Even when the co-authors of our book have done public lectures just sharing slides of the ancient crystal skulls or video, there are always people who see these holographic images within the images of the crystal skulls! 



Purpose and Theories about the Crystal Skulls 
Based upon various research conducted upon these artifacts, the following theories have been proposed: We believe the Crystal Skulls are a form of computer which are able to record energy and vibration that occur around the them. The skull can and will pictorially replay all events or images of the people who have come into contact with them (i.e. - they contain the history of our world) when activated by color, light, sound or human energy. Just as our modern computers can receive or send information to other computers all over the world (the best example is Internet), so too can the Crystal Skulls send information amongst themselves. We believe, as the ancient legends describe, that the Crystal Skulls can and have been used for healing. Several of the caretakers of ancient crystal skulls (have received some profound healing by working with their own personal skulls) have received reports from various people who had improvements in their health. We of course need to do more scientific testing of this. 

Based on reports and legends from various indigenous cultures, the crystal skulls have played a key role in these cultures development or have been viewed as a link to the Godhead, in whatever way this was represented to each of these tribes. We have also found a very strong link with extraterrestrials based on holographic images of "ETs" or spacecraft recorded in the skulls as well as discussed in some of the legends told by the people living in the areas where the skulls have been found. This leads us to believe that possibly beings from other worlds either brought these skulls to our world for some specific purposes (such as a tool to elevate consciousness and awareness of our spiritual origins) or gave to us the technology to make our own crystal skulls. If the Crystal Skulls were not brought by extraterrestrials then based on their strange properties, the phenomena occurring in their precise and the very concise way they were were formed, could this be evidence for the existence of much more advanced civilizations existing in our past who possessed superior technology or were quite advanced spirituall?. We have worked with several spiritual channels who suggest that the crystal skulls were created in Atlantis or Lemuria. That the Crystal Skulls could have originally been a human bone skulls that were changed to crystal through the power of the mind. Another theory we have uncovered discussing that the crystal skulls are connected to people who live in the Inner Earth. This idea presents the theory that our earth is Hollow with a small central sun at its core and openings at the poles. Gravity, which is located at the center of the Earth's crust, 800 miles thick, hold objects and people to the inner or outer surface. Supposedly, 13 master Crystal Skulls hold the genetic coding of Twelve Inner Earth Tribes and the thirteenth or central skull represents the family of these tribes. 




Golden Age
I personally feel that the Crystal Skulls are not only here to share ancient knowledge and wisdom, but to assist in awakening our race to higher spiritual laws and understanding of itself. They are announcing that many of the ancients tools are coming back now because the planet is ready to use them again in a harmonious way. The Crystal Skulls are a tangible sign that indeed a Golden Age is fast approaching our world, possibly arriving by the end of 2012. The crystal skulls are inwardly calling those individuals who have worked with them in past lifetimes so they can help the skull to become more fully activated which will help to connect humanity to our inner divinity and the actualization of higher universal knowledge. If any of the readers have additional information about the Crystal Skulls or an experiences they would like to share, please feel free to contact us at the address listed below.

     What is the bible Saying                                                            About Some Of  Its Ancient Artifacts?

 

There are readers out there who would be surprised or offended with the notion that high-technology was described in the Bible. 

There are other readers who have realized that the only explanations to Biblical mysteries are ancient Close Encounters. A good question is: Why are certain, Old Testament events written about in the Bible? The answer could be that these were special events between basically two groups of people: One group was the primitives or the general state of humanity in Biblical times. The other group was the relatively few HUMANS that still retained and utilized technology originating from the days of Atlantis.

When angels made an appearance, they were always human. Those who caused the Great Flood; gave Moses the instructions on building the Ark of the Covenant; and warned Lot then destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah...were human beings. But, these people had advanced knowledge and flew 'chariots' in the sky. They resided on the tops of mountains; well away from the simple world of Bible prophets in the lowlands.

The most amazing example of an Old Testament Close Encounter is the Book of Ezekiel. Read the beginning of Chapter 1 in the King James Bible...only imagine that it is a UFO landing. With this idea in mind, Ezekiel's experience is almost understandable. Ezekiel's Book was so controversial that it nearly did not survive the religious editors who did throw out the Book of Enoch.

'The Spaceships of Ezekiel' by Blumrich is an award-winning book that should be read by anyone investigating Biblical mysteries. Blumrich is a scientist and NASA designer of the Saturn V rocket. He wrote that his son informed him, after reading an Erich Von Daniken book, that the prophet Ezekiel described a spaceship landing. Blumrich was positive that he could disprove that concept because of his technical skills in this field. The ancient text could not possibly portray a feasible craft; he assumed. The NASA designer wrote that he was never so surprised when he actually read the Book of Ezekiel. The ancient words did indeed conform to a realistic vehicle.

In the beginning of Ezekiel, the prophet wrote of the approach of four faces from above. In reality, the 'four' referred to the landing legs of the craft. Blumrich was shocked when he read the Old Testament report of 'straight legs' of 'burnished brass' with 'round feet.' The NASA scientist himself designed the metallic, straight legs and round footpads of the lunar lander. The famous quote from Ezekiel is 'a wheel within a wheel.' Once the lander touched down, Ezekiel saw wheels. This is the exact chronology of what would occur with a modern vehicle. The UFO landed, transformed into a wheeled rover then rolled along the ground. Ezekiel was only familiar with wheels from simple carts that moved in one direction. But, the prophet described wheels that moved in all directions which was completely alien to Ezekiel.

Enoch was Methuselah's father and Noah's grandfather. His Book should be in the Old Testament. It has surfaced from independent sources which validate the ancient text. The Book of Enoch was edited out of the Bible by the Ecumenical Council for its controversies. Enoch, like Ezekiel, was taken on many flights by the gods (angels) and witnessed great horrors and beauty. 39/3: '...a whirlwind carried me off from the earth...' There are numerous references to whirlwinds which 'spirited' Enoch away into the sky. The angels 'showed me all the hidden things' and 'mine eyes saw all the secret things of heaven.' Enoch saw views that 'no man shall see.' In 33/4, Enoch states: 'I saw a great and glorious device.'

32/2: 'And thence I went over the summits of the earth, and passed above the Erythraean Sea, and went far from it, and passed over the angel Zotiel (another ship?).

14/18-19: 'I looked and saw a lofty throne: its appearance was as crystal and the wheels thereof as the shining sun...from underneath the throne came streams of flaming fire so great that I could not look thereon.' Enoch mentions crystals and wheels. The throne could be a vehicle where the angels sat and underneath were fires from the rocket thrusters. The 'vision caused me to fly and lifted me upward and bore me into heaven.'

There are numerous references to PORTALS or windows where Earthly and celestial views appeared. 33/2: '...portals of the heaven open. 3. And I saw how the stars of heaven come forth.'

The Book of Enoch speaks of much destruction, chaos and corruption on Earth; as well as among the angels. Like Genesis, Enoch mentions 'giants' and 'the Watchers.' There were 'the Satans' - the 'Sons of Heaven' - 'angels of punishment' - 'instruments of Satan' - and the same specific Genesis angels: Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, etc. 'God' is never mentioned; only plural gods or angels. Enoch was taken to the mountaintops where the gods resided. He observed things that no primitive could understand. The angels 'corrupted the sons of man.' It was these various humans, with the technology, that played God and decided the fate of the children on Earth.

The main reason Enoch's Book was deemed heresy and taken out of the Old Testament could have been the accurate astronomy. Page after page concerns the sun, moon, yearly cycles and heavenly statistics. 'Paths of the sun and moon,' 'their stately orbits,' 'courses of the luminaries' and 'revolve in their circular chariots' are only a few quotes of Enochian wisdom.

75/8: 'And I saw in the heaven running in the world, above those portals in which revolve the stars that never set.' Only from space are there stars that never set. Remember, the Church during the time of Ecumenical editing condemned accurate astronomy. (Ask Galileo). Religious officials wanted the public to think that the Earth was flat, did not move and was in the center of all things.

During these ancient times, there were mad scientists (angel-demons) who cloned anything they wanted. The mythological animals were real; they were genetic experiments. Also, wars of the gods occurred. Nuclear warfare was not beyond the capability of the angels. Robert Oppenheimer, creator of modern atomics and a student of early books of India, knew that nuclear wars happened in the Old World. The deserts of today are the result of ancient, atomic wars. Assuming that these conclusions are true: The Great Flood was probably green-lighted by good gods who wanted to reduce high radiation levels. Also...the perverted creatures and their power-crazed, genetic engineers needed to be eliminated on a global scale. The Earth was a mess and needed to be wiped clean.

There was a Great Flood that covered all of the land. Sea shells were found on top of Mount Everest. There is water erosion on the Sphinx. All land is a sedimentary deposit. Many Noahs sailed during Waterworld. The Chinese have their old stories of an Ark and a Great Deluge. Numerous indian cultures have their legends of a Flood, a Noah and an Ark.

Most people do not believe in the Biblical story of Noah because of a basic problem: How could a few people gather ALL the animals, feed and care for them on board a ship for months? The answer comes from...who controlled the Earth thousands of years ago? The angels (the humans with the technology) built the Arks, collected the animals and caused the rains. The chosen animals were probably the best examples of their specie and worthy of being saved. It is scientifically possible to place a life form in suspended animation reduced down to its DNA. This was the cargo within the Arks. The samples of DNA would be revived, later, after the waters receded. Nowhere in the Bible does it mention that Noah went out and gathered each animal. It only says Noah brought them into the Ark. If the 'life cannisters' were all assembled for the Noahs by the gods and the simple people merely carried them in and secured them in place, then this does explain the Noah story.

The world began again. In Genesis, it says that after the Flood: Noah went to live with the 'gods.' This was one of the few plural references that survived the editors of the Bible. The reference 'gods' was later changed to the singular 'God.' The simplified term was changed to accommodate a world that had become extremely simple.

Atlantis was Eden. Compare these two legends. Each was our mother-civilization or the place where we originated. Each was a Paradise. Each fell and mankind had to leave in disgrace.

It is not far-fetched how the people of Earth could divide itself into two races; a simple one and a complex one. If a nuclear war happened today, the survivors would continue in tribal communities. After generations, they would forget what technology was. But, the few who knew of the coming nuclear devastation and even caused it...would have protected themselves and be the few who still possess advanced knowledge. These 'gods' could deal with the numerous primitives as they saw fit. This concept is ancient history.

The Genesis story of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah is not a mystery when you plug in the idea of a modern technology. How do two cities, realistically, get wiped off the face of the Earth? The inhabitants of Hiroshima and Nagasaki may know the answer. Two, human angels came into town and warned people of the coming destruction:

 

19/17: '...Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.'

19/24: 'Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven.'

19/26: 'But his wife looked back from behind, and she became a pillar of salt.'

19/28: '...the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.'

19/30: '...he (Lot) feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.'

The angels directed Lot and his family to save their lives by running to the mountain. A land mass can protect one from a nuclear blast. The cities were 'consumed' with 'brimstone and fire.' This is a perfect description of a nuking. A mushroom cloud moving vertically could be the meaning of 'went up as the smoke of a furnace.' Lot's wife did not make it; not because she looked back, but because she trailed 'behind' the rest of her family. A primitive seeing an atomic explosion would be more than stunned; they would tend to stop in their tracks. Not looking back is good advice to those running for their lives. The 'pillar of salt' could have come from finding her body later and discovering the effects of radiation. Finally, hiding in a 'cave' because of the fall-out until the land was ready for habitation is very logical.

Genesis 1/26: 'And God said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness...'

2/21: 'And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh...'

In Genesis 1/26, there are important clues that the creation of Eve from Adam was not conducted by a singular God. In this one sentence, there are three plural references: 'us,' 'our' and 'our.' This was a CLONING operation observed by a primitive who did not understand. First, one of the technicians caused Adam to fall into a 'deep sleep.' This was the anesthesia. Second, a cell must be taken from somewhere on the body to create another body. The rib area was where the cell was taken. They 'closed up the flesh' is a modern expression describing the completion of the operation. Master-cloners could quickly form an adult and change the sex from the original. This idea was illustrated in a Star Trek Next Generation episode where a primitive was brought back to life and mistook Captain Picard as a god. He prayed to 'the Picard' and was later corrected.

Before the Red Sea parted, there were two UFOs leading the people out of Egypt. Exodus 13/21: 'And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them away; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night.' These objects in the sky could very well be spacecraft when you consider: clouds (or smoke) by day and fire by night. Rocket thrusters could create billowing smoke in sunlight. But, at night, the flames from the propulsion systems would be what was mainly visible. These chariots in the air could have held back the waters of the Red Sea with forcefields.

Exodus 14/22: 'And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon dry ground: and the waters were a wall (on either side).' With a flick of a switch. turning off the forcefield at the appropriate time, the 'waters returned, and covered the chariots' of the Egyptians.

All through Exodus, this Lord God demands that 'I am the Lord' and 'I will be to you a God: and ye shall know that I am the Lord, your God.' In 15/3, there is a strange reference: 'The Lord is a man of war.' This is curious because it says God is a 'man' and not a very nice one. It is more like God is a big bully; having power over people; pushing his weight around only because he has the ability to do so.

There is a warning in 19/12 to 'go not up into the mount, or touch the border of it: whosoever toucheth the mount shall be surely put to death.' This Biblical God was not God. 19/18: 'And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the Lord descended upon it in fire...and the whole mount quaked greatly.'

In Exodus, Moses was given instructions on building the Ark of the Covenant. The inventive genius, Nikola Tesla, wrote in 'The Wall of Light' that Moses had to have been a skilled electrical engineer. The Ark, Tesla concluded, was a very powerful 'condenser.' It created intense vibrations that could smash solid stone. The Israelites carted the device into battle and won wars with it; not unlike the vibration weapons the Fremen used in the film 'Dune.'

I Samuel 14/5: 'And when the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord came into the camp, all Israel shouted with a great shout...' 4/8: '...who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty Gods? these are the Gods that smote the Egyptians...'

In II Samuel 6/6-7...a simple man named Uzzah, disregarded warnings, touched the Ark improperly and was electrocuted! '...Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen shook it. And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.' The man attempted to place it back on the ox-drawn cart and died. They had no concept of high-voltage. 6/9: 'And David was afraid of the Lord that day.'

The story of Jericho is told in the Book of Joshua. The actual site of Jericho was found. The stone walls were over ten feet thick. What could bring down massive walls? According to the Old Testament, it was the power of the Lord. Marching around the stone fort and blowing trumpets could not possibly shatter such walls. The Ark of the Covenant was there and responsible for 'tumbling down' the walls of Jericho. There are numerous references to, again, a great shout.

Jonah was taken aboard a submarine. But, the prophets would not have that modern word; so the description became a 'great fish.' How were the 10 Commandments cut into stone? The finger of God could have accomplished this if they were lasers. The burning bush may have been electric. The Virgin Mary could have been artificially inseminated.

The Biblical reports were not understood 500 years ago or even 100 years ago. It was only until the 20th Century and its technology that we could finally understand what was really happening. There is evidence that our REAL prehistory was similar to science-fiction. Most people either reject the Bible as nonsense or believe it is the absolute word of the Supreme Being. The Bible is the most amazing account of Close Encounters. The events were real; they happened; but the truth is extraordinary.

Doug Yurchey is a writer, artist and inventor. He has studied ancient mysteries for 30 years and was married to a trans-channel. He has lectured at Carnegie Mellon University and California State at Northridge. For two years a background artist with the Simpsons TV Show, Doug Yurchey now promotes his unique theories.

He would welcome your comments.

I would also like to say that I am very leary over the occurences that are stated in the bible. I think alot of it comes down to us mistranslating what it says. But biblical ancient artifacts interest me the most. Like the holy grail is suppose to have healing powers, or the Ark Of The Covenant is suppose to be a weapon of mass power or have the ashes of one of the apostles. I do not know what to make about the great flood I read somewhere that on Mount Everest seashells were found meaning that there was a time the entire earth was under water. Whether the ark was a spaceship or just a ship we will not know till we find it on My arafat the supposed location of it based on some expeditions. Sometimes the ark exposes itself briefly but its said to be buried in alot of snow and broken in half near a gorge in the mountain. My theory about biblical artiffacts has alot to do with aliens plain and simple they visited on earth perhaps even god was an alien and his ark was the mother ship as to where he took Noah and others along to save them from some impending disaster such as the flood. But generally you got an idea.

Artwork unknown

The 10 Most Puzzling Ancient Artifacts
Over the last few hundred years, many perplexing artifacts have been unearthed that do not fit the currently excepted theories of geology and the history of man.

The Bible tells us that God created Adam and Eve just a few thousand years ago, by some fundamentalist interpretations. Science informs us that this is mere fiction and that man is a few million years old, and that civilization just tens of thousands of years old. Could it be, however, that conventional science is just as mistaken as the Bible stories? There is a great deal of archeological evidence that the history of life on earth might be far different than what current geological and anthropological texts tell us. Consider these astonishing finds:

The Grooved Spheres
Over the last few decades, miners in South Africa have been digging up mysterious metal spheres. Origin unknown, these spheres measure approximately an inch or so in diameter, and some are etched with three parallel grooves running around the equator. Two types of spheres have been found: one is composed of a solid bluish metal with flecks of white; the other is hollowed out and filled with a spongy white substance. The kicker is that the rock in which they where found is Precambrian - and dated to 2.8 billion years old! Who made them and for what purpose is unknown.

 

The Dropa Stones
In 1938, an archeological expedition led by Dr. Chi Pu Tei into the Baian-Kara-Ula mountains of China made an astonishing discovery in some caves that had apparently been occupied by some ancient culture. Buried in the dust of ages on the cave floor were hundreds of stone disks. Measuring about nine inches in diameter, each had a circle cut into the center and was etched with a spiral groove, making it look for all the world like some ancient phonograph record some 10,000 to 12,000 years old. The spiral groove, it turns out, is actually composed of tiny hieroglyphics that tell the incredible story of spaceships from some distant world that crash-landed in the mountains. The ships were piloted by people who called themselves the Dropa, and the remains of whose descendents, possibly, were found in the cave.

 


The Ica Stones
Beginning in the 1930s, the father of Dr. Javier Cabrera, Cultural Anthropologist for Ica, Peru, discovered many hundreds of ceremonial burial stones in the tombs of the ancient Incas. Dr. Cabrera, carrying on his father's work, has collected more than 1,100 of these andesite stones, which are estimated to be between 500 and 1,500 years old and have become known collectively as the Ica Stones. The stones bear etchings, many of which are sexually graphic (which was common to the culture), some picture idols and others depict such practices as open-heart surgery and brain transplants. The most astonishing etchings, however, clearly represent dinosaurs - brontosaurs, triceratops (see photo), stegosaurus and pterosaurs. While skeptics consider the Ica Stones a hoax, their authenticity has neither been proved or disproved.

 

The Antikythera Mechanism
A perplexing artifact was recovered by sponge-divers from a shipwreck in 1900 off the coast of Antikythera, a small island that lies northwest of Crete. The divers brought up from the wreck a great many marble and and bronze statues that had apparently been the ship's cargo. Among the findings was a hunk of corroded bronze that contained some kind of mechanism composed of many gears and wheels. Writing on the case indicated that it was made in 80 B.C., and many experts at first thought it was an astrolabe, an astronomer's tool. An x-ray of the mechanism, however, revealed it to be far more complex, containing a sophisticated system of differential gears. Gearing of this complexity was not known to exist until 1575! It is still unknown who constructed this amazing instrument 2,000 years ago or how the technology was lost.

 

The Baghdad Battery
Today batteries can be found in any grocery, drug, convenience and department store you come across. Well, here's a battery that's 2,000 years old! Known as the Baghdad Battery, this curiosity was found in the ruins of a Parthian village believed to date back to between 248 B.C. and 226 A.D. The device consists of a 5-1/2-inch high clay vessel inside of which was a copper cylinder held in place by asphalt, and inside of that was an oxidized iron rod. Experts who examined it concluded that the device needed only to be filled with an acid or alkaline liquid to produce an electric charge. It is believed that this ancient battery might have been used for electroplating objects with gold. If so, how was this technology lost... and the battery not rediscovered for another 1,800 years?

 

What are we to make of these finds? There are several possibilities:

  • Intelligent humans date back much, much further than we realize.
  • Other intelligent beings and civilizations existed on earth far beyond our recorded history.
  • Our dating methods are completely inaccurate, and that stone, coal and fossils form much more rapidly than we now estimate.

In any case, these examples - and there are many more - should prompt any curious and open-minded scientist to reexamine and rethink the true history of life on earth.  

"Sitchin claims that modern humans are the product of genetic engineering by beings from another planet Nibiru. They arrived here 450,000 years ago. Nibiru orbits the sun every 3600 years, and at some stage they abandoned the planet earth and returned to Niburu. Nibiru is due to return in 2013 and is also referred to as Planet X. It was they the Nubiruans or Annukai that built the pyramids, the Sphinx, Stonehenge etc."

 

The Mayan Calendar 
(and the end of the world) 

A hoop used in the famous ball game. The aim was to get a rubber ball (and not a human head) through the hoop using various parts of the body except the hands, Bizarrely, it seems like the winners (or maybe just their captain) was beheaded. 
The Maya were a very advanced race who excelled in the fields of mathematics and astronomy. Their calendar was, at the time, the most accurate one in the world surpassed only by the current Gregorian calendar in the 16th century. This was a by-product of their obsession with very long periods of time which they tracked using highly accurate observation of the stars and the planets. In their day-to-day life, the Maya ran two different calendar systems in parallel. One was the Tzolkin (or Sacred Year) which had 13 months of 20 days each, making this "year" only 260 days long. The other was the Haab which had 18 months of 20 days each followed by 5 unlucky days where everyone stayed home and avoided doing anything. This made the Haab a total of 365 days which is similar to the solar year. The Maya specified their dates using a combination of both of these calendar systems which, because of their different lengths, meant that any date combination didn’t repeat until 52 years had elapsed. At the end of this 52 year period there were a further 13 unlucky days (which were their equivalent of our leap years). These 52 year periods were very important to the Maya (and most of the other tribes too). They were paranoid about the sun failing to rise every morning but never more so than at the end of these 52 year periods. 
Now here’s an important date for your diary: according to the Maya, the current world will end on 22nd December, 2012 (which is a Saturday if you want to plan around it). Their records describe 4 previous ages which each ended with various world-wide catastrophes with only a few survivors to rebuild civilization each time (interestingly, one of these ages ended with a flood which is reminiscent of the biblical tale of Noah). The current age is supposed to have started on 13th August, 3114BC and it is supposed to end with devastating earthquakes. They are supposed to have predicted their own decline so you never know… 


A carved stone serpent's head from a Teotihuacán pyramid. 
Following this tour, I read a book called "The Mayan Prophecies" by Adrian G. Gilbert & Maurice M. Cotterell (who co-authored: "The Orion Mystery" which the intriguing BBC documentary: "The Great Pyramid - Gateway to the Stars" was based on). Amongst other things, this book investigates the Maya’s imminent prediction using a new theory that the Maya’s calendar was based on sunspot cycles and the sun’s complicated magnetic field. This book contains some pretty dubious claims but it also contains some interesting and plausible theories. Apparently the Sun’s magnetic field changes with a period of 260 days - the Mayan Sacred Year! This influences the Earth’s magnetic field and it has been known to periodically invert so that a compass would point south. When this happens, the Earth may be knocked off its axis resulting in the prophesized global earthquakes. The book suggests that, based on the known 25,627 year "wobble" in the Earth’s rotation, a magnetic pole inversion is due to happen imminently. Now I’ve probably not done this book justice by summarizing its 368 pages in just one paragraph but, aside from all of these theories, it surprisingly turned out to be an excellent historical guide to the various Mexican civilizations. 


Here's What I Think

By Rick

I think in a way its superstitious to say the world will end when the Mayan Calendar ends. Perhaps they had no reason to go deeper into the future or perhaps the world really will end. Regardless in theory I believe some civilizations were more advanced then we thought. Perhaps its not about being advance maybe it was about them being spiritual and metaphysical being able to tell what the future will hold. If you look at the course of history every few thousand to million years disaster strikes. The great flood, the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs, pole shifts, etc Which if we look at the Sinking Of Atlantis we can clearly see many who lived on that continent must have perished so there world had ended abruptly. The Mayans did predict there own demise which is what makes there predictions all the more believable. I do believe that something big is going to happen in the future whether its 2012 or in the next few years. Ancients were very smart in the fact they used the stars to tell time. What made them want to predict so far into the future may have been a warning message they got and perhaps it was a warning message for us to learn maybe prevent it and what I mean by it could be anything floods, pole shift, earth quakes, asteroid hitting, disease etc.

 

Daedalus flying machines
Air travel was the dream of humanity long before the Wright Brothers made it a reality. But was it ever actually achieved? New archaeological discoveries suggest, astoundingly that it might have been, as much as 3500 years ago, and that the genius who achieved it was a man long thought to have been purely mythical - Daedalus, the architect of the notorious labyrinth of Knossos, in Crete.

Pasiphae, wife the Cretan king Minos, so the story goes, fell passionately in love with a magnificent bull, pride of the the royal herds, and Daedalus devised a machine to enable her to have her wicked way with it. The monstrous product of this union was the terrifying Minotaur. Minos ordered Daedalus to build the labyrinth, a tortuous open-air maze, to hide it away and, to avoid the shameful secret becoming known, imprisoned Daedalus in it as well, along with his son Icarus who had helped him. But Daedalus collected feathers and, fixing them to his arms with wax, made wings for himself and Icarus, and they flew up and away. Icarus, in his excitement, flew too near the sun; the wax melted and he plunged into the sea to his death; but Daedalus flew on to Sicily, where he found refuge at the court of the king of Syracuse.

Recently, excavating in Bronze Age deposits near Knossos, a Greek archaeologist, Professor Aphron Asophos, came upon some twisted metal objects which, when restored, were small, lightweight wheelless chariots, each with an elongated cone in front and aerodynamically extraordinarily sophisticated wings on each side. Scratched on the side of each was an inscription in the Minoan script, Linear B, which included the word DAIDALOW. Daedalus!

Incredible as it may be, Asophos reasoned, he had stumbled on first, proof that Daedalus had been a real person, not merely a figure in mythology; and, secondly, that he really had tried to build a flying-machine - and here, presumably, were the prototypes!

Later, an excavation in similar-aged deposits at Syracuse turned up a similar object. On learning of them Professor Asophos at once contacted the excavator, Dr. Sciocco Gabbante, and found that he had been puzzled by some odd inscriptions on them. Trembling with excitement, he flew to Syracuse and, yes, they were Linear B, and there was that name again: Daidalow. But the device itself was slightly different. Contacting an aeronautical engineering firm in Rome, Asophos and Gabbante learned with growing astonishment that this machine, unlike the others, was aerodynamically perfect - it really could have flown!

Forget feathers and wax: that was the only explanation that the amazed inhabitants of Knossos could conceive of, as they watched Daedalus and Icarus soar far about their heads. Deadalus had built a flying-machine, one which actually flew, and got him (but not, alas, his son) all the way to Sicily, back in the Minoan era, about 1400 B.C.

Only he knew the secret; when he died, a wealthy man, lionised by the Syracusan royal family who had even caused Minos to have an unfortunate fatal accident when the latter came in search of him, Daedalus took the secret of flight with him to his grave, not to be rediscovered for nearly three and half thousand years.

Or did he? Even if we discount the description of a flying machine in operation by the prophet Ezekiel, in about 600 B.C., as being just a vision in his head, what are we to make of the designs of flying-machines by Leonardo da Vinci in the early 16th century? Some of them look, in retrospect, very like the devices from Knossos and Syracuse. Moreover in some newly discovered manuscripts, from the still under-researched archives of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, Leonardo mentions Daedalus again and again alongside further sketches of his flying-machines. Had that phenomenal polymath independently invented similar devices or, more likely, did Leonardo have access to some now-lost documents, handed down from the Greeks through the Arabs to Renaissance Italy? Evidently he lacked - as we do - only knowledge of their motive power to make them fly once more?

Let history be the judge.

An Anunnaki In The Family Tree?
By James Hibberd

The alien ancestry theory is wildly complex, extremely bizarre and fills just enough holes in evolutionary theory to have won its modest share of proponents. The theory's influence extends from sci-fi movies such as Mission to Mars and Stargate to effecting the very real debate over rain-erosion tests that suggest the Egyptian pyramids are older than originally suspected.

First the theory; discussion will follow.

A humanoid race called the Anunnaki who live on the as-yet-undiscovered 10th planet in our solar system came to Earth about 432,000 years ago. They genetically engineered our species by combining their own DNA with that of Homo erectus. The Anunnaki's purpose was to use humans as slaves to help mine the planet for gold. Anunnaki eventually left the planet, leaving their slaves behind.

The benefit of the alien ancestry theory is that it allows a much more literal interpretation of ancient mythology. Introduce high technology to a low-tech civilization, and suddenly it's logical that some people lived 500 years, that mythical gods were actually flesh-and-blood beings, and that displays of godlike power were commonplace.

Support for this theory, say proponents, is in the detailed historical records inscribed on 5,000-year-old Sumerian clay tablets discovered in the Euphrates Valley. In 1976, a Russian journalist named Zecharia Sitchin studied the tablets and wrote a book introducing his conclusions, The 12th Planet, the first in the "Earth Chronicles" series of books.

Today, author Lloyd Pye, a former science-fiction writer, has advanced Sitchin's theory further in his book Everything You Know is Wrong, Book One: Human Origins and on his Web site, http://www.lloydpye.com/

"[The traditional view of history] is not going to fly forever," Pye says. "The weight of [anthropologists'] credentials holds up the balloon, but eventually somebody pops it. And that's what we're looking to do. We will prevail over time; we know we're right. There's constant turnover in science, and we're all part of the turnover process. I am, Marcia Schafer is, we all are."

Pye describes himself as non-metaphysical and devoted to hard science. Here are what he says are his two best arguments for the theory:

"One, we bear no physical resemblance to primates, which we supposedly descended from. We don't have their hair, heads, muscle strength, skin, brains, eyes and we don't have their chromosomes. The fact we've been told we descend from primates is a joke.

"Two, we're full of genetic defects. There are genetic defects in the wild, but they're very few. And no defects in the wild kill the animal before maturity. We have over 4,000 genetic disorders and counting. How do genetic defects like that get into the gene pool? They have to be put there through the process of cutting and splicing -- it's clear we're genetically engineered from that alone."

Paul Saffo, director of the Institute for the Future, says Pye's reasoning is typical of New Age futurists.

"The big mistake of the UFO believers is they treat science like scripture," Saffo says. "They're treating imperfect hypothesis as final conclusions, taking the stuff of science, but not the logic. All these scientific terms are used by them like Latin incantations for High Catholics."

Saffo points to the Heaven's Gate mass suicide. When the UFO cult bought a telescope to confirm the presence of an alien spacecraft trailing the Hale-Bopp comet, then didn't see it, they returned the telescope, complaining that it was defective.

"The prop serves the use so long as it serves their theory," Saffo says. "They do not understand the fundamental principal of Occam's Razor -- the simplest explanation supported by fact is correct."

Pye counters: "That's a good point, and it's one of the things that they hide behind. They keep saying, 'Give us time, we'll find the answer.' It's like the missing link. They're not going to find it, they've been looking 140 years, it doesn't exist. You go from Neanderthals, or Homo erectus, then suddenly overnight in the fossil record you have Cro-Magnons, looking absolutely nothing like anything that's come before."

Douglas Raybeck is a professor of anthropology at Hamilton College who has done extensive research on the possibility of extraterrestrial life. Although he believes that there is a chance of life elsewhere in the universe, he says the alien ancestry theory is absurd.

"Despite the words about 'missing link' and so forth, we have an excellent record of evolution," Raybeck says. "It's virtually impossible we got a sudden entry of an alien life form whose DNA, structural fit and sensory organs fit so nicely with what came before. The only way I'd buy the argument is that it's possible that life may have been seeded from meteorites, but at that point we're talking about something that's no more complex than a bacteria."

As far as humans having more genetic defects, Raybeck points out that humans are far more complex than most mammals and notes that "if we were [created in a lab], we'd be much better engineered."

"If you were about to engineer an animal," he reasons, "would you slip in a series of difficult-to-predict anomalies?"

The Coso Artifact
While mineral hunting in the mountains of California near Olancha during the winter of 1961, Wallace Lane, Virginia Maxey and Mike Mikesell found a rock, among many others, that they thought was a geode - a good addition for their gem shop. Upon cutting it open, however, Mikesell found an object inside that seemed to be made of white porcelain. In the center was a shaft of shiny metal. Experts estimated that it should have taken about 500,000 years for this fossil-encrusted nodule to form, yet the object inside was obviously of sophisticated human manufacture. Further investigation revealed that the porcelain was surround by a hexagonal casing, and an x-ray revealed a tiny spring at one end. Some who have examined the evidence say it looks very much like a modern-day spark plug. How did it get inside a 500,000-year-old rock?

 

Ancient Model Aircraft
There are artifacts belonging to ancient Egyptian and Central American cultures that look amazingly like modern-day aircraft. The Egyptian artifact, found in a tomb at Saqquara, Egypt in 1898, is a six-inch wooden object that strongly resembles a model airplane, with fuselage, wings and tail. Experts believe the object is so aerodynamic that it is actually able to glide. The small object discovered in Central America (shown at right), and estimated to be 1,000 years old, is made of gold and could easily be mistaken for a model of a delta-wing aircraft - or even the Space Shuttle. It even features what looks like a pilot's seat.

 


Giant Stone Balls of Costa Rica
Workmen hacking and burning their way through the dense jungle of Costa Rica to clear an area for banana plantations in the 1930s stumbled upon some incredible objects: dozens of stone balls, many of which were perfectly spherical. They varied in size from as small as a tennis ball to an astonishing 8 feet in diameter and weighing 16 tons! Although the great stone balls are clearly man-made, it is unknown who made them, for what purpose and, most puzzling, how they achieved such spherical precision.

Impossible Fossils
Fossils, as we learned in grade school, appear in rocks that were formed many thousands of years ago. Yet there are a number of fossils that just don't make geological or historical sense. A fossil of a human handprint, for example, was found in limestone estimated to be 110 million years old. What appears to be a fossilized human finger found in the Canadian Arctic also dates back 100 to 110 million years ago. And what appears to be the fossil of a human footprint, possibly wearing a sandal, was found near Delta, Utah in a shale deposit estimated to be 300 million to 600 million years old.

Out-of-Place Metal Objects
Humans were not even around 65 million years ago, never mind people who could work metal. So then how does science explain semi-ovoid metallic tubes dug out of 65-million-year-old Cretaceous chalk in France? In 1885, a block of coal was broken open to find a metal cube obviously worked by intelligent hands. In 1912, employees at an electric plant broke apart a large chunk of coal out of which fell an iron pot! A nail was found embedded in a sandstone block from the Mesozoic Era. And there are many, many more such anomalies.

 

WHO BUILT THE GREAT PYRAMID?

 

By John Zajac


 The Pyramids. According to common perception they were built, with the begrudging help of great armies of slaves, by the ancient pharaohs of Egypt as tombs for preserving their royal bodies. Pyramids were meant to be monuments to the pharaoh's greatness, filled with great treasures for the afterlife. To construct these massive shrines, the pharaoh's copied the oldest and largest pyramid of all, the Great Pyramid of Giza.

But the Great Pyramid itself contains no pharaoh's body, no treasure chamber, and no treasures. Who, then, designed it and built it? What was its purpose? Let us begin our tour by considering a few basic facts about the Great Pyramid.

 

 The Last "Wonder of the World"

  • Thirty times larger than the Empire State Building, the Pyramid's features are so large they can be seen from the Moon.
  • Its base covers 13.6 acres (equal to seven midtown Manhatten city blocks), each side being greater than five acres in area.
  • A highway lane eight feet wide and four inches thick could be built from San Francisco to New York and put inside the Great Pyramid.
  • The oldest structure in existence, having been started 4,617 years ago, it is the sole remnant of the Seven Wonders of the World.

 Journey to the Center of the Earth

  • Only a solid stone mountain could endure the Pyramid's immense weight. And indeed, a flat solid granite mountain happens to be located just beneath the surface of the ground directly under the Pyramid.
  • It is built to face true North.
  • The Pyramid is located at the exact center of the Earth's land mass. That is, its East-West axis corresponds to the longest land parallel across the Earth, passing through Africa, Asia, and America. Similarly, the longest land meridian on Earth, through Asia, Africa, Europa, and Antarctica, also passes right through the Pyramid. Since the Earth has enough land area to provide 3 billion possible building sites for the Pyramid, the odds of it's having been built where it is are 1 in 3 billion.

 Construction Unequaled by Modern Technology

  • Like 20th century bridge designs, the Pyramid's cornerstones have balls and sockets built into them. Several football fields long, the Pyramid is subject to expansion and contraction movements from heat and cold, as well as earthquakes, settling, and other such phenomena. After 4,600 years it's structure would have been significantly damaged without such construction.
  • While the bulk of the Pyramid's core was constructed of 4,000- to 40,000-pound blocks of soft limestone, the outer layer of the Pyramid was made of a beautifully bright, protective layer of polished stone. These outer "casing stones" are missing today because about 600 years ago they were stolen by Arabs, (This accounts for the very worn appearance of the Pyramid today, since the inner limestone blocks are not immune to attack by the elements-wind, rain, and sandstrom.) This protective covering was made up of 100-inch-thick, 20-ton block of hard, white limestone, similar to marble but superior in hardness and in durability against the elements.
  •  
  • The casing stones, 144,000 in all, were so brilliant that they could literally be seen from the mountains of Israel hundreds of miles away. On bright mornings and late afternoons, sunlight reflected by this vast mirrored surface of 5-1/4 acres distinguished the Pyramid as being visible from the moon.
    (Note: For those interested in possible symbolic significance, in Bible prophecy 144,000 is the number of people-12,000 from each of the 12 tribes of Israel-who are supposed to evangelize the world at the endtime.)
  • The people of the area had viewed the Pyramid and its polished stones with awe for centuries. But when a 13th century earthquake loosened some of these casing stones, the Arabs recognized a great quarry of precut stones that could be used to finish off palaces and mosques. For instance, the casing stones were used to rebuild the new city of El Kaherah plus Cairo mosques and palaces, including the Mosque of Sultan Hasan.
  • Amazingly, the outside surface stones are cut within 0.01 (1/100th) inch of perfectly straight and at nearly perfect right angles for all six sides. And they were placed together with an intentional gap between them of 0.02 inch. Modern technology cannot place such 20-ton stones with greater accuracy than those in the Pyramid.
  • Even more amazing is that the 0.02-inch gap was designed to allow space for glue to seal and hold the stones together. A white cement that connected the casing stones and made them watertight is still intact and stronger than the blocks that it joins.
Let's pause from our tour for a moment's rest and reflection. Whoever built the Pyramid used a technologly that we still do not possess today to cut, move, and cement stones. Whoever built it also had some knowledge of the Earth, because it was built in the right spot-one of the few places that would support such a great weight. The builder also knew where the greatest land mass of the Earth was in both the North-South and East-West directions.
Amazing. But we had better keep going. And joining us on the leg of our tour will be none other than Sir Issac Newton...

 

 The Cosmic Yardstick

The Great Pyramid is one of the most comprehensively surveyed buildings in the World. Scientists over the centuries have taken thousands of measurements in their quest to find out more about its mysteries.

Among those intrigued by the incredible accuracy of the Pyramid's construction was the great scientist and mathematician Sir Isaac Newton. Attemping to formulate his famous law of gravity, Newton needed to know the diameter of the Earth. However, in the 1600's no measurement was accurate enough, especially since Newton theorized that the Earth's spin would cause an equatorial bulge. Having heard legends claiming that knowledge of the Earth, the past, and the future were contained in the Pyramid, Newton set out to investigate.

After studying the detailed measurements made by the investigators before him, Newton recognized that many key measurements would be in round numbers if the standard unit of measure was just 0.001 (1/1,000) inch larger than the British inch-which just happens to be the Sacred Jewish Inch. (The Sacred Jewish Inch, 1/25 of a cubit, equals 1.00106 British inches.) This discovery allowed the secrets of the Pyramid to be unlocked and revealed unmistakable and mathematical relationships. For instance:

  • We know from geometry that there is a universal relationship between the diameter of a circle and its circumference. Consider this: The height of the Pyramid's apex is 5,812.98 inches, and each side is 9,131 inches from corner to corner (in a straight line). If the circumference of the Pyramid is divided by twice its height (the diameter of a circle is twice the radius), the result is 3.14159, which just happens to be pi. Incredibly, this calculation is accurate to six digits. So the Pyramid is a square circle, and thus pi was designed into it 4,600 years ago. Pi is demonstrated many times throughout the Pyramid.

     

  • Other numbers are also repeated throughout. Each of the Pyramids four walls, when measured as a straight line, are 9,131 inches, for a total of 36,524 inches. At first glance, this number may not seem significant, but move the decimal point over and you get 365.24. Modern science has shown us that the exact length of the solar year is 365.24 days.
All of the evidence in the Great Pyramid shows that 4,600 years ago somebody knew a great deal about the Earth. But it gets better, much better:
  • The average height of land above sea level (Miami being low and the Himalayas being high), as can be measured only by modern-day satellites and computers, happens to be 5,449 inches. That is the exact height of the Pyramid.

     

  • All four sides of the Pyramid are very slightly and evenly bowed in, or concave. This effect, which cannot be detected by looking at the Pyramid from the ground, was discovered around 1940 by a pilot taking aerial photos to check certain measurements. As measured by today's laser instruments, all of these perfectly cut and intentionally bowed stone blocks duplicate exactly the curvature of the earth. The radius of this bow is equal to the radius of the Earth. This radius of curvature is what Newton had long been seeking.

Clearly, whoever built the Pyramid had access to information beyond that which earthlings possessed at the time, at least earthlings as we know them. Now, one can argue that we were visited by scientifically advanced beings from outer space who taught us their technology. That is possible from the evidence presented, perhaps even likely. If so, these advanced beings had the paramount goal of leaving behind a message that would endure for eons.

Suppose these beings decided to leave a message. The message would have to be universal yet simple. It would have to survive the centuries and be understandable by all the Earth's inhabitants despite language and cultural differences. The message would have to be understood by many languages that would not come into existence for centuries after the message was written.

So far the message indicates that whoever built the Pyramid knew the Earth well: the length of the year, the radius of curvature, the standard measurement techniques, the average height of the continents, and the center of the land mass. They were able to construct something that we still cannot construct today, and they were able to tie all these things together in this single structure. Were they extraterrestrial, or perhaps even supernatural? The answer is not yet clear. However, thus far we have examined only the outside of the Pyramid.

Was the earth once home to a race of tiny beings? Before you
answer "NO" consider this: across the globe are structures and
artifacts which seem to have been made for diminutive human beings?

THE LITTLE PEOPLE

Archaeologists have long pondered the maze of under sized tunnels and
stairways discovered in the pre-Inca ruins of Sachuaman and other
South American dawn cities. Tunnels so tiny small children have
difficulty negotiating their sharp turns, miniature doorways
accessible only to toddlers. Yet, both the tunnels and doorways bear
evidence of ample use; the hard stones which line the passages are
deeply worn. If little people traveled these tunnels, where are they
now? All that remains are questions and an array of unusual
artifacts: delicate ivory pieces from Shemya in the Aleutian Islands
and the famed Pigmy-flints: perfect arrow-heads scarcely a half inch
long, but unquestionably shaped by human hands. History is filled
with tales of tiny people from fairies and gnomes to the legendary
Leprechauns. Some primitive cultures live in fear of the "little
people" and build their beds on rocks to prevent the tiny folk from
hiding beneath them. Little People. Reality or mythology. Answer:
UNKNOWN.
