    Agreed. Surprised most here are harping on about the so-called correlation with the historical figure of Jesus. Robert Lomas has done extensive work on investigating the de Molay connection.

    I think you need to investigate a little more on the over 2000 flood 'myths' from around the world. The flood is easily dated back to the beginning and around the end of the Younger Dryas c. 10300BC - and the historical figure of Noah/Manu et al is plausible. The shroud was dated to the time of Jacques de Molay, as investigated by Robert Lomas and Christopher Knight. Don't let your atheist tendencies cloud your judgement of the truth – I urge you to read the work of David Rohl and the synchronicities of Egyptian history and Biblical narrative, especially Old Testament, which all comes across as truth, without having to rest your moral conscience on faith and belief, Therelihunter.

    Thanks for the comments, more interesting than the article. From all around this world, there are tales of giants, some destroyed by the so called authorities of knowledge, to keep their stupidity intact. As well as being the elite of what exactly? To keep the sheeple in place, and not to question them, because they know what's best for us. Talk about a crock of s....

    Great idea (from ASYNSIS, the architect of the Maitreya Buddha project, in India), could also become an iconic symbol of a Greek version of this marine renewable energy initiative - making Greece a renewable-energy exporter to northern Europe; so it sells more than it buys, solving its debt problems and liberating its new generations from debt bondage.

    The ANU, being a title beneath the great AN, I understand, is currently under MARDUK's rule, here on Earth? I was of the understanding NINKI was NINURSAG? They are all Annanuki and not of this earth and have no rightful claim to it. The reason "ape" DNA was used, was they used the best of what was already here.. Believe me a revolt against the GODs is already afoot, it's just humanity has not woken up to it yet, until they let themselves known to the masses, the masses don't need to make a dissision to be slaves or to be free.. The system we currently have was put in place eons ago by the Annanuki for the Annanuki..

    Because so called ‘experts, do not like their theories to be challenged. Like you I am open to the idea of much older ‘lost civilisations’, let’s hope more challenging evidence is discovered soon and that the ‘experts’ are forced to change their views, or at least broaden their horizons.

    They seem to be just Arabians like others whom, due to centuries of isolation, evolved a different culture and mannerism.

    Much like Sardinians or other broken-off groups.

    As a Dane, I certainly find this article interesting. Makes me wonder what mine might have been had I lived back then.

    It is a mistake to assign modern fringe values to our ancestors. The people in question were not "green". Quite the opposite. They cut down trees, killed animals, used fire, had primitive means to be sanitary, made tools, and traded just to name a few things that are not really green. They relied on the exploitation of the environment to survive and engaged in the human endeavors of invention and innovation to not only feed themselves and provide shelter but to create comfort through material goods.

    They might not have been as technologically advanced as we are but they certainly worked toward technological advancements and given the opportunity, they traded for things they couldn't make. It was a hard brutal life and anything to improve it would have been welcomed, rather unlike today's environmentalists. It is wrong to think that living this lifestyle is better for the environment. Our world would be much worse off if everyone lived this way.

    I am not sure how to rationally get from people using a tree as shelter to these people being like modern day environmentalists other than some people today want to regress to a harder, less efficient, more destructive way to live because suffering makes one closer to nature.

    Or maybe she was unworthy or considered a danger and was buried apart from the others and all the items in there were meant to protect everyone from her.

  • Reply to: Origins of the Mysterious Minoans Unraveled by Scientists   8 years 7 months ago
    Comment Author: Daruman

    "In sum, the Minoans of Crete were of Cretan and Greek origin, the study says. The ancestors of the Cretans, the team found, likely came from the Near East and Turkey."

    As the 2013 genetic study says and your quote says, the Minoans of Crete are of Cretan and Greek origin. Perfect. Yet the ancestors of the Minoans are still speculation.
    We all know that Crete was inhabited by humans at 130.000 BC, the earliest evidence of sea navigation shows that. And also on mainland Greece and on the islands there are many archaeological sites dated to 3000-11000 BC.

    The agricultural revolution stated in the levant/fertile cresent of which Cyprus, Israel, Turkey(anatolia), jordan, syria, lebanon is the core and with direct offshoot to eastern mediterranean (Greece, egypt and, other parts of Anatolia)
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levant
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fertile_Crescent

    We don't know the depths of economy/trade around the beginning of agricultural revolution. We do know that for instance Obsidian (which can only be found in the Greek island of Milos), is found everywhere in Greece way back in Neolithic times and that sea navigation in Greece (and probably around) goes back many thousands of years,that the ancestors(the Greeks/Cretan Greeks) of the "Minoans" might not even be from Anatolia(Turkey) at all, but from Crete or the rest of Greece. And that the knowledge of new forms of Agriculture and advanced agriculture spread through trade or through knowledge of few.

    Presently other poorer parts of the world also has wash machines, cars, mobile phones etc, without anything close to the word migration. When knowledge is spread = not perse equivalent to migration.

    And while previously thought that Minoans (because they where so incredibly advanced) automatically originated from Africa, which we now know is not true, as they where of Greek and Cretan origin. The Cretans and Greeks themselves also might not be from the Middle east/Asia Minor, and might just as well be living continuously in Greece far more Millenia back to even before the Agricultural revolution.
    Also the fact is that the entire Eastern Mediterranean region at the end of the ice age, had far milder and less problematic conditions than more northern regions(which was severely affected by the iceage). This means that the Eastern Mediterranean is much more suitable to house life, and potential of village size/larger populations all around. Which eventually also supports the idea that Greeks (from 9000 years ago) might not perse originate from Anatolia (Turkey), but that maybe BOTH Anatolians/Greeks share the same ancestry.
