Dear Willem. I am not sure that many Dutch Catholics from Noord Brabant and Limburg would look with same simpathy as you to the 80 years war and the Munster Treaty. Unfortunately, it has always been the view of the Protestant mayority of the North, and ignoring the Catholic South point's of view, that has prevailed in our Dutch culture.
To the Romans, Cloacina was the goddess of the sewer and toilet. She was later merged with Venus and was viewed as an aspect of the love goddess where she not only ruled over the sewers and toilets but also protected sexual intercourse.
The argument is that Mankinds polluting ways are accelerating the rate of change to the point where we can't act fast enough to adapt to it. We have increased the maximum global temperature threshold that a natural cycle would have, pushing the limits of tolerance for most of mother nature.
We have also poisoned the planet with the burning of fossil fuels and left a toxic legacy of plastics which are destroying marine life by the millions and seeping petrochemicals into the Earth in landfills.
We never needed to use oil to the extent we do but now its in everything from your shampoo to the soles of your shoes and the ramifications of not only consumer waste but industrial waste on such a large scale needs to be considered.
Whilst Climate change is naturally occuring in many respects, we are not helping in anyway.
That's so intriguing! I do remember hearing something about the appearance of a mysterious stranger giving hope in that mine collapse & then disappearing. Would you mind sharing what you've found about this individual's repeated appearances around the world? Or at least point me in a good direction for search terms to find out more? Thank you! :)
Even we the Khasis people living geographically in the northeastern part of India(called N.E India).Natively we worships the sun,river,mountains (animism)because they were mostly mother-like.Eg:'she-ka,sun- ka sngi,river- ka wah and were matrilineal also..But now due to the missionaries and british rule only few maybe 30% are still animism and natively life-styled
That we had a great global flood is evident from the fact it is mentioned across +50 ancient cultures spanning all continents. Also from clear geological evidence such as water erosion on the Sphinx and many other such erosion marks across the world dating from around that time. Also the ice cores in large parts of Antarctica are roughly 10k years old. Of course, all the stories across ancient cultures, from China, India, Sumeria, Mayas, Aztecs etc. Are so similar because they are based on actual historic cataclysms, not fiction. We are stupid to think they were stupid when they could build such amazing structures and had as much mathematical, architectural and astrological knowledge if not more than we have even today!!
During these long forgotten periods we've had some major earth events which can hide most if not all evidence. From around 100,000 yrs to around 12,000 yrs bp we had ice ages which meant lower sea levels by 120 metres. Volcanic and meteor impacts. The Younger Dryas event these are just to name a few. We also know of a population extermination event sometime relating from these, from genetic analysis. It could be that there is a wealth of evidence lying on the sea bed that we just have not thought about. We just dont know yet. But we need to ask.
Egyptologists theories on pyramids are also just circumstantial and only show that dynastic Egyptians and their pharoahs occupied and added to what had been there long before they arrived.
of course the calendar was of great importance back then, just as it is,still, today. These ancients knew more about solar seasons and the seasons of the galaxy than scientists do today. Its a great pity that history has been erased and all this wisdom mostly forgotten in the name of progress
It's highly doubtful the Romans were there. They were too busy, in the Med. However, the Phoenicians are known to have been trading with Celts, in the New England area, BCE.
The tomb of King Stei I is one of the most amazing tombs in the valley of the Kings in the west Bank of Luxor.
For many years after specialized restoration and conservation projects in two of the most beautifully decorated tombs of ancient Egypt, Tomb of Seti I (KV17) in the valley of the Kings and tomb of Nefertari (QV66) in the valley of the Queens, were closed for public with exception for private visits for nearly 3000USD for up to 10 persons.
The ministry of antiquities decided to open the two tombs of the father and wife of Ramses II to public
One of the most mysterious and powerful women in ancient Egypt. Nefertiti, whose name means "a beautiful woman has come," was the queen of Egypt and wife of Pharaoh Akhenaten during the 14th century B.C.
Nefertiti is the stepmother of King Tut. Her reign was a time of tremendous cultural upheaval, as Akhenaten reoriented Egypt’s religious and political structure around the worship of the sun god Aten.
She and her husband established the cult of Aten, the sun god, and promoted Egyptian artwork that was radically different from its predecessors.
Here’s the deal… We learned this from Mother Nature herself. Cross-pollination of like kind species to produce characteristics of a third kind is natural. And nature has checks and balances to control what will successfully “take or not take” or continue to progress into a separate species, like the Mule as an example. They can be bred one generation but cannot rebreed Mule to Mule to continue as a unique species.
Cross Pollination that nature will either accept or deny as viable is not playing God by stringing Fish DNA with Vegetable DNA in a laboratory. Two totally different concepts here.

I agree. Not sources mentioned - as in primary sources, not other books.
To the Romans, Cloacina was the goddess of the sewer and toilet. She was later merged with Venus and was viewed as an aspect of the love goddess where she not only ruled over the sewers and toilets but also protected sexual intercourse.

No UNESCO have not recognised them at all. Bosnia pyramids are just mountains

I'm a Brazilian Navy Captain retired that now have time to learn about the ancient world.
She was the favorite god for King Ramesses III, he actually built beautiful status for her in Habu Temple in the West Bank of Luxor.
He was one of the most famous pharos in ancient Egyptian history. His achievements in Luxor including Luxor temple still standing till today.

Welll said and very true. Everyone should be able to express what they think without being rudely attacked.
