    Grendal has the distinct likeness of a grey Alien in that picture.

    Well I believe there wouldn't be any or as many if America (and the West)
    had stayed out of their countries and not raped murdered their women and children and and pillaged the natural resources

    Herodote told about the women in the sarmatian tribes, who were fighting and hunting like their men, and this has been confirmed by archeologic finds, so warrior women are not a myth but an historical reality.

    We have all the reasons to believe that the legend of the Amazons comes from early meeting between greeks and sarmatians, as seeing women fighting alongside men must have made a strong impression to the greek people considering that women didn't go to war in their own culture.

    "evolved into Neanderthals, Denisovans, and the other early humans " LOL! Yes all 22 structural changes happen at one time - no intermediate links or anything. LOL again. Miracle after miracle and not a God in sight.

    No way to KNOW these are skulls of old people. These skulls look like ancient Egyptians. Could Kukulkan/ Viracocha been Egyptians? Are these large headed people a hidden branch of humanity? If they are only between 800- 2000 years old, where are they now? Where did they go?

    Who says I believe in any religion or god? I certainly didn't.

    Neither did I say you thought the deluge didn't happen. You seemed to have an allergic reaction to references to one set of ancient texts; I was helpfully pointing out there are many others referencing the same thing, so you can join the conversation instead of sneering at everything.

    Scientists as a whole are very precise with their terminology, btw. As such, if you aspire to emulate them, you might want to do some research on fairy lore and ancient mesopotamian texts.

    Science is a method, not a snarky attitude.
    I mean, having a snarky attitude is fine. Just don't confuse it with science.

    certainly history is very important for any authentic nation to consolidate its identity, and the strict observance of evidences is always the key for real emancipation, and there are undoubtedly confusions in regard to the particularity of the ancient vestiges of the region. the question is, is there any attempt to obliterate some of its characteristic; the response is most possibly yes, but not as just a enmity, all the question is based on the westernization of Troy and its assimilation to the Hellenic civilization, this because troy was a hittite kingdom of a culture similar to the ancient east, so the region of Bosnia that has a relative cultural remnants was as it appear an extension of that civilization to the west notably after the end of the Hettite empire, and there is also the Etruscan culture in the southwest and which cause similar conservatism.

    I may be stupid but I'm not a church, lol. And I'm pretty sure I just posted what is actually contained in the ancient texts, while you are inferring a bunch of things that are not.

    If you consider the Gnostics to be heretics, you have a lot in common with the Roman Catholic church, btw.

    Well that's weird, since Moses and the Israelites supposedly walked to Canaan through a desert from Egypt in the Exodus.

    Those would be huge bubbles, heh. That's an interesting idea, but AFAIK the material in which the bays are in is not consistent with volcanic mud.

    Hi Mic, Although it has been a time since you have posted this comment, I would like to add something about what you were saying regarding to Davis`s statement: that the village was "built into the mountain side" and that the houses of that village looked like "favelas". Well, not everything in Davis`s story is too clear as we would like it to be, but although Davis talked about this, it seems that the mountain was not really near to Abas-Abas`s home. This could be, because Davis stated that they left Abas-Abas home sometime around midnight, and they drove in a truck until the next morning, at dawn, so if Abas`s house was next to the mountain, why they had to drive for so many time to get to the mountain? This is a very interesting question.

    So essentially we're talking about the magical equivalent of a date rape drug and the Horseman's Word was the 17th century Scottish version of a pickup artist website.

    Why, in paintings is Adam always shown with a navel if he was created from the dust of the ground. Seems more likely painters knew he was born like all humans are.

    It is my observation and conclusion that in addition to air, water, shelter, food, and shelter, as well as to the remainder of “Maslow’s Hierarchy”, an essential human need is to participate at some level in a perpetual “King of the Mountain” drama. Human beings are essentially violent critters, and we command a parasitic relationship to the rest of that which, thus far, we have encountered in the universe. Ask any human being with an intellectual functioning greater than that of the average rock and you will be told of at least part of the infinite list of measurements whereby we score an invariable 9 or 10 as compared to all other organic matter which struggles to surpass 3 or 4. Of course! We wrote the instructions and devised the measuring tools. Chevy wouldn’t care to statistically prove that Ford or Dodge is a better vehicle, would they? Anyway, King of the Mountain is a uniquely human behavior that may be expressed with as little as a smirk, as much as globe-splitting explosive device, or anything in between. Grammar Nazis and pedants absolutely LOVE the game, and can often be identified by the calloused knuckles of one hand acquired by executing repeated self-congratulatory on their upper breasts.

    At least it is acknowledged in this article that women warriors are myths and fantasies, whether religiously based in ancient times, or commercially/politically based in modern times.They are far more likely to instigate conflicts( cf.Helen of Troy or the Arthurian legends) among men then fight in them!

    This may be a reason, though not the only one, why women, until the XX century-and look at how messed up THAT era was-were by and large, kept away from the larger society.While female gossip, intrigue, and wiles from behind the scenes created mischief, most public affairs were still managed by men.
