The Santuario de Chimayo has its own "miraculous" dirt (likewise not endorsed by the Church but a matter of belief on the part of ordinary folk) which long predates the good father's grave although how he could have announced the sanctity of his own burial place is a wee bit confusing. Certainly the whole area surrounding Chimayo is unlike Ireland but altogether beautiful.
Seems they probably placed the golden wigs on their statues. Look how they are cut out around the heads. No purpose to have wigs for healthy women. Maybe we're not supposed to see them as golden haired.
The beginning of the Sorcerer class takes place among the Aryan tribes of the Bronze Age of the 2nd millennium BC, before their emigration to India from the steppes north of the Black Sea. IT'S TRUE!!! This knowledge is passed to us from generation to generation! In ancient times, the territory of Ukraine was called Aratta. In ancient times, and now the territory of India is called Bharata (Gods Aratta). Herodot knew not everything! Many of his arguments are fictional. Best regards, Viktor Kapinus (Induvit).
Very interesting article about the Giants of days past in and around modern day London and Britain. I guess one of my biggest questions us still do we have any proof of a GIANT? Certainly 8 ft tall or so is tall but not what most would think of as gigantic. (Imo respectfully saying) I really did enjoy the explanations and the stories of the 33 female giants who found suitors (although I wonder about the 33 number and if it is some kind of symbology) by there Father. I'm still left wandering if indeed there is ANY proof of Real Giants in our "unknown and made up" past we all have been told. With All the Megalithic Sites being exposed around the whole world and rock that was cut and placed in ways impossible to do today. Why don't we KNOW? WHY? It makes no sense to me that We as people don't even know who, what, or where we come from. The 1 and only thing I do KNOW, is that I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING.... very frustrating... love the site and Thank you for all yalls work.
Didn't Sparta also have a slave class propping up the system ?
I read an interesting article on how nearing the end of Sparta so if the wealthiest people were woman as they could inherit wealth from their husbands & remarry & inherit more wealth etc due to the men going off & dying in some war somewhere.
Two points to consider:
1. If the Christian "prudeness" and asserted overhyped modesty and morality were used as filters for literature and art, how did so many statues and ceramics 'make it' when they were known to have been in existence for up to the entire history of Christianity. And all the heterosexual references would have doomed those works as well, wouldn't they? A large number of what survived history in fact have been around for most of it and not just unearthed recently.
2. A huge amount of what survived through history did so under the auspices of the Christian, later Catholic (non-iconoclastic Christian denomination) protection. The Christian/Catholic Church had centuries and centuries to purge these works; instead, it seemed to preserve them. The Church had a keen respect from the earliest Hellenistic days for much of the thought and philosophy of the Greeks, in particular, and so passed that knowledge down, even integrating it into the early theology (the Logos, for example, and the forms of love in the epistles).
I would more darkly view Protestant church leaders who destroyed nearly wholesale as many vestiges of Catholic Christianity as they could since no graven image nor non-scripture was fit for Faithful Christians in those days. And even more so, Islamic leaders really had it out for any vestige of western civilization, purging entire regions of art, writings, etc. in the first centuries of Muslim conquest. Both of these actions are quite well documented in history.
This is a beautiful article and glad you posted it. I want to add to it. What lured her out of the cave was they (the deities) placed a mirror outside the cave, and when she saw the beautiful light filled Goddess in the mirror she was intrigued and curious. She did not know that it was herself she say in the mirror, her own light she saw. This is what caused her to come out.
Amaterasu meets the beauty of her reflection, but does not she herself. She can see her own light "only when she see's the light in others".
We are all sacred mirrors. That is her gift to us! When we see the light in others, we can see our own. This is the part you left out of the story. The power of this Goddess. She was not merely seized and forced out of the cave. She was lured out by her light-hearted curiosity to the Goddess in the mirror. She is the light, that is within everyone.
This article is full of historical inaccuracies. For starters:
1. She was called a "she wolf" because she lived in times that were incredibly misogynistic. In reality, Isabella was much admired for her intelligence, beauty, and extraordinary diplomatic skills.
2. Edward II was about 23 when he married her (she was 12). They had little to discuss at their wedding, but later became devoted parents to their 4 children. He didn't give her jewels to Gaveston.
3. She didn't have Edward killed. She wanted him to dismiss Despencer the Younger, as he was cruel and nasty to her, his queen. Edward was never involved with Hugh's father. There is nothing to link Isabella to Edward's death. There is very little that is true about how Edward died.
4. There is no evidence that Mortimer was her lover.
After spending an enormous amount of time wadng through the comments and responses posted here, I am impressed with a few, and disappointed with many. Somehow the pertinent facts of the article seem to be appropriated by many to espouse some some sort of racist, egocentric position, thereby missing the most important part.
That is the suppression of evidence, artifacts, and data that is at odds with current accepted theory. The Spanish destruction of Mayan records and artifacts 500 ya could possibly be attributed to ignorance, but in our present age, similar actions are inexcusable. Witness the claim of ‘improper’ excavation methods used to try to stop the investigation of the antiquity of Gunung Padang.
To my mind, this suppression is absolutely criminal, but to my knowledge, none have ever been prosecuted for concealing or burying information. Let them protect their grants at the risk of being prosecuted for perjury or obstructing truth – should be as valid as obstructing justice.
This article is fantastic. In American universities now it is popular to teach students that heterosexuality was invented in the late Victorian era of the United States, and the misrepresentations about ancient Greek culture are part of the mountain of nonsense used to substantiate the bogus claims of radical ideologues. Bravo!
My thought on positions: one was buried facing the earth, the other facing the sky, their faces turned to the gods of the sky and earth. The third's position rather looks like he was a last minute addition.
So how about two died of disease and were already in the grave when the other brother also died and he was added at the last moment hence the odd positioning.
As for the ochre on the youngest it may have administered by their mother as this would have been perhaps her last living child and her youngest.
A sad story that three young children died so close together in time. May they and their Mom (and Dad) rest in peace.
I think that the construction tech behind the pieces is the key, these pieces are exceptional, their edges are still sharp, the cuts are perfect, the sizes are uniform, the materials are the hardest available. While I agree it is possible humans made them, it is also possible that other beings dropped by and whipped them up.
I believe the presenters at the August 2001 Press Conference on alien contact, the conference video is on youtube. I encourage all to listen to it.
The presenters were hoping to get a congressional hearing on their experiences and findings but 9/11 put an end to that. One fellow asked by a reporter how many alien life forms they had encountered replied, "So far, 85." We are not alone and haven't been alone for a long, long time.
I agree with the author, the bias against inconvenient facts is especially clear when despite abundant evidence to the contrary, Egyptologists insist that the Pyramids are the work of some fellows a few thousand years ago when clearly the technology is beyond what is possible today.
I believe that the history of mankind is extremely ancient and dates back well before the various ice ages.
I also believe that the reason for the insistence on a recent origin of the pyramids is because the technology developed by their creators using pyramids located around the world would if replicated eliminate the need for all of the current fuel sources in place today. I may be wrong, but I doubt it:)
Interesting article, thank you.
Just a thought, all writing from the time as well as art have been "edited" by a thousand plus years of Christian readers, art collectors, museums, curators, collectors.
All though these years Christianity has been violently opposed to homosexuality; it follows that we may have been deprived of the majority of literature/art that supported homosexuality for "our own good.".
Circumcision is not a traditional practice of the Zulus. Only the Xhosa practice ritual circumcision in South Africa. However with the HIV epidemic many Zulus and other tribesmen are getting medical circumcisions in hospitals and clinics as it lowers the risk of getting HIV during sex.
I completely agree with you. There is a historical dogma that, if not strictly adhered to, will label anything outside of it as 'crazy', or is simply ignored. The level of arrogance and obstinacy displayed by many archaeologists is maddening. They refuse to even look at anything outside of their sphere, and if they do, they 'debunk' it using the flimsiest scrap of evidence. There is plenty of evidence that ancient history didn't happen as is previously thought, but the orthodox scientific community is doing the equivalent of sticking their fingers in their ears. Anyone who looks at the abundant evidence with an open mind and common sense can see it.
How does any of you know they are, "living in peace"? Half of those people could be hostages. Perhaps not all of them are content with the stone age. Don't get me wrong, if they want to be left alone then by all means leave them alone. However, we simply don't know if they all want to be left alone. We only know what a certain group wants us to know.
Here you can navigate quickly through all comments made in any article sorted by date/time.

You work on Shambhala has been copied in India by Arun Bhagwati. The book is on sale on Amazon. Check it out
