    After studying Ron Wyatt, I simply Google Mapped Jebel al Lawz in Saudi Arabia. I saw everything that Ron described. However, I got lucky. Two weeks later. The area got fuzzed up. Some time later, I tried again. It was clear again but everything was gone, including the chain link fence around the area. However, across the valley to the north was a new complex with helipad. It was built bunker style, like it was underground. You can see it today. I believe the Saudis know exactly what went on there.

    If only those earlier white people could have been as virtuous as you all those indigenous people could have been spared so much suffering and exploitation. Please continue to point out the unique depravity of white people through the ages.

    Bravo ! Very well written ! The white people ( of whom I am one ) were greedy and self-centered ! It makes me sick to think of what "we" did, at the expense of so many others !

  • Reply to: Only 11 Tribes of Israel? Controversial Findings Reveal Danites Might Not Be Sons of Israel But Sons Of Greece   7 years 4 months ago

    Just read the Premium article Hunting the Lions: The Last King of Assyria, and the Death of the Empire by Cam Rea which speaks of Judean King Josiah using many Greek mercenaries as he tried to protect his borders, especially those in the south which bordered on Egypt.

     

    From my own studies I know that Pharaoh Necho (Neco) of Egypt, was determined to wage war against Assyria. But the kingdom of Judea stood in his way. Even though the pharaoh assured King Josiah that he wanted only safe passage through Judea, Josiah obvious did not believe him. The  two armies met at Meggido where the Egyptians routed the Judeans. King Josiah was injured and carried back to Jerusalem where he died.

     

    My point is that if Josiah used all these mercenaries, surely they brought Greek culture and pottery with them. Don’t know about them going north to attack Laish but I would assume that the victorious Egyptians would retaliate against those who fought with the Judeans. I do know that much of Judea paid tribute you Egypt for many years until the Egyptians retreated due to internal conflicts in Egypt. This led, years later to the invasion of Babylon in which the Israelites were taken to Babylon.

    It’s possible that the Greek mercenaries were included and eventually blended with the Judeans. I don't doubt that there was an original Tribe of Dan, but whether they remained totally Jewish is in doubt.

    I too saw the program on the History channel regarding the ten plagues. It makes a lot of sense how one played off the other, until you get to the tenth. I recently either read or saw a show stating that the tenth plague (death of the first born) could have been human sacrifice committed by the Egyptians to halt the spiraling disaster. Unthinkable, I know but I can see how desperate they might have been with famine (after crop failure and death of animals) and illness. They must have feared what would happen next.

    But bridges in the united states are lucky to last 50 years. Add in all the traffic and chemicals put on the roads and some last less. Maybe the golden gate,( but it has impeccable upkeep and great weather),. but most bridges in this country dont even have a 75 year lifespan.
    Its a serious problem in our country (road infrastructure)along with the opioid epidemic

    Also, salt water of any kind is modern concretes worst nightmare

    "...we know that rotation is relative to the distance from the sun."

    Do you mean Earth's rate of rotation correlates to increases and decreases in its distance from the sun? Or that rotation of anything is relative to distance from the sun?

    If you meant the latter, that isn't true. Rotation periods are all over the place, there isn't a steady increase in rotation periods as distance to the sun increases.
    There is a steady increase in orbital periods as distance from the sun increases, for obvious reasons.

    If you meant the former--that Earth's rate of rotation increases and decreases in concert with its distance from the sun, I'd like to see some information on that, if you've got any links.

    Comment Author: Harry Sivertsen

    Biblical tales are generally allegory for something else and are not to be accepted literally. The flood tale is no different and there are little elements of the flood story that are no more than decoration to give it appearance of reality and one of these is the sacrifice at the end of the flood. This is what would have happened were the tale to be true.
    The flood story is probably the best example of allegory as this is a tale of astronomy. It is developed from an India version that is far older than the Biblical tale. Many have noted the similarity between the Biblical version and that added to the Epic of Gilgamesh, the Chaldean version of flood tale. In fact there is not a great deal of similarity to this but much more commonality to the Indian version.
    The most important part of the Chaldean interpretation is the location of the landing place of the Ark; this is Mount Nisir or Nizir. This name does not appear on most modern maps and Stapanie Dalley in her 1989 translation of Gilgamesh termed the location Nimush. Earlier translations used Nisir. It should be remembered that the text claims that the Ark landed on the mountains [plural] of Ararat where Ararat is no more than a modern rendering of Urartu, the general region indicated. This is not a precise location unlike the Chaldean version which does tell us where the vessel is to be found.
    Igantius Donnelly in his Atlantis investigation used a translation that utilised the name Nizir back in 1882 while the more modern version by John Gardener and John Maier of 1984 translated the word as Nisir. Hence we can be sure that the name Nisir[Nizir or Nazir] is that which applies.
    The location is about two miles north of the Iranian border, 10 miles south-east of Dogubayazit, 18 miles south of Greater Mount Ararat and has an elevation approximately 6,300 feet above sea level. There is an old settlement near the site, which has been called Uzengili since the 1950’s, but for thousands of years previously was known as Nisir [Nizir] or Nasar [Nazar]. The name Nisir was changed to Uzengili in the 1950s when an earthquake revealed the ‘vessel’ and has since taken on the title of Durupinar by a number of researchers after the Turkish flyer who spotted the boat shaped formation from the air. Durupinar nonetheless is not the official name of the locality and modern maps including Google Earth name the village Uzengili. Find Uzengili on Google Earth then take a line at 113.24 degrees for a distance of 0.43 of a mile and the centre of the boat shaped rock formation which is described as the vessel of escape from the flood in the Gilgamesh Epic is located. There are numerous photo graphs of the site on Google Earth. The precise location of the centre of this ‘Ark’, an unusual piece of real estate as ascertained by GPS is :-
    39 degrees 26.4305 minutes N, 44.degrees14.0795 minutes E.
    In Urdu the word Nizir means to present a sacrifice which in fact is what was done by Noah in the story, at the end of the period in the Ark. In fact the dimensions of this geological anomaly are confirmed as corresponding to the Genesis account. This is explained in the book described below.
    So we have the correct location according to the Chaldean version and a correspondence via the location name and dimensions of the ‘boat’with the Biblical tale.
    So our article author need search no more…this is the Ark location as long accepted by the locals of the region. This was added to a tale of a flood that in fact was a heavenly flood and not a deluge on Earth. Did not the Egyptian Ra, the sun, require a boat to traverse the skies? Do we not we see a similarity to Veruna an Indian deity who travelled in his vessel in the skies? I find it a bit of puzzle that Genesis 1: 6-9 can describe an ocean in the skies and then be ignored by flood researchers because this must be one of the most important statements in the whole Bible. It tells us that all is not what it seems. In fact in Genesis there are two versions of the flood tale that many researchers claim have different authors [possible] and are not really connected [not true, they are].
    The flood, in reality, is a cyclic affair and refers to the loss of a pole star. This parallels the falling of the ‘Pillars of Heaven’ in the Chinese version of the tale. Plato used the same scenario in his Atlantis story referring to the constellation Hercules with his statements regarding the Pillars of Hercules; Plato’s Hercules was the heavenly constellation of that name that held the pole star of the era 8100BC to 9000BC . He was referring to a date and not a location at the entry to the Mediterranean from the Atlantic. This has implications for Biblical dating regarding the end of the flood because it last a ‘godly’ year of 3600 years. This is a canonical value as no pole star[or flood periods] vary but creation eras are consistently of 1000 years. This is all made clear in the Indian narratives. The next creation era was when Thuban in Draconis took over at 3300BC and remained pole star until 2300BC. There is much that has been completely misunderstood regarding such stories from the distant past and they require evaluating completely differently to modern historical events.
    The book Deluge:From Genesis to Atlantis reveals all and is available to download free or read online at https://independent.academia.edu/HarrySivertsen
    This is a work that including the numerous reference listings is over 500 pages in length. It covers a wide area but all subject areas are part of the argument and analysis involved in solving the puzzle of the floods of the religious works and Plato’s Atlantis.
    Research for this work commenced in the mid 1980s and the book was completed circa 2010 and indeed has had a few updates since. It has been praised for its analytical worth and explanations by a number of readers. There is much that is seen to be astronomical in nature and the easiest clues to start such an investigation emerge from India. Readers who are interested in the truth of these matters may also note the paper Ancient Indian Calendars on the same web page as Deluge:From Genesis to Atlantis. This paper is enlightening regarding dating and among many associations shows the use of climatic events as points of reference that are verifiable via modern ice core research. We push the boundaries of intelligent recording of events back considerably…with powerful evidence that it would be difficult if not impossible to counter.

    the usual low standards -- use of "unique" for distinct or rare. Padding verbiage. If Queen Isabel had many of them they were far from unique. & Who does the absolute monarch in an Inquisition dominated country "pawn" her jewels to? Does a drunk write these articles?

    ¨Where is the evidence, show us the (raw) data!!! computer drawings and pictures of burial mounts and dig overview drawings are not evidence for giants.. Where are the pictures of the giants skeletons is measurement reference size scales, where are there pictures of a scientist or person that did the dig holding up a skull or other bone in his hands. Which peer reviewed article can you reference that shows these things..
    In other words where is the evidence.. As a sceptic I demand proof not hearsay or trust me on my word claims.

    Without evidence this story is just a story based on the personal incredulity fallacy.

  • Reply to: Ten Legendary Swords from the Ancient World   7 years 4 months ago
    Comment Author: An Ke War

    I looked it up. I'll agree that its true origins are uncertain. Still seems very far fetched that a few "miracle swords" were made locally even though there technology had been around more then a thousand years further east. Especially since we know there was trade between the regions for millennia. A lot of history is biased by writers/scientist and history rewrites itself constantly. Since the science is not definitive or peer reviewed, it might be possible...but not likely that the blade steel was from Germany. The minerals analysis was done on one sword and only the pommel and hilt supported there claim.

    Consider this. Weapons technology during war spreads fast. In the time of Ulbrecht there was little development and a lot of war. There were multiple swords made over 2 centuries(??). Why would they not mass produce these locally sourced swords if it was in there capability?

  • Reply to: The mysterious golden lozenge of Stonehenge   7 years 4 months ago
    Comment Author: Harry Sivertsen

    JT is heading in the right direction regarding measures but it is more complex than is initially apparent. John Michell, following on from a number of other researchers made the first realistic assessment of the prevailing 'system' of measures that can be demonstrated were used at Stonehenge and in fact across most of the ancient world.This was in the late 1970s and early 1980s. I have been involved in a similar study since the late 1980s. This indeed is a very old tried and tested metrological methodology that has stood the test of time emerging before Egypt and its pyramids in India and even then having been developed in a now drowned area of Sundaland [South Malaysia].

    I have written extensively on this subject in the book Measurements of the Gods with numerous references to evidence that can be checked by the individual.

    This work of over 500 pages can be read online or freely downloaded at:- http://independent.academia.edu/HarrySivertsen/

    There are cross references here as well to Biblical evidence seen in Deluge:From Genesis to Atlantis. Again this is on the same web page and also is over 500 pages in length. Indeed there is an abundance of evidence for the arguments put forward.

    As a shorter introduction and with the specific target subject of Stonehenge there is a popular paper which is titled Stonehenge Measures which is found on the same web page as Measurements of the Gods. In this not only are the dimensions of this ancient site verified by the most accurate surveys yet available, but also a refutation of the application of the 'megalithic yard' of Alexander Thom. This argument is based not upon opinion but Thom's own work on other circles.

    The dimensions of Stonehenge and system of measure employed are well described in the texts with cross references and reinforcing evidence from far and wide.

    Regarding the lozenge, This is one of those puzzles where the experts will continue to argue. The shape is not uncommon in the ancient world and may well have astronomical significance. The problem here is that is size precludes the necessary accuracy required for astronomy. It does seem a strong probability that this is a scaled down model of something very much larger and a symbol of position, possibly denoting the wearer as an astronomer which would have much greater import then than now. Again, regarding the dimensions of this I have seen a number of conflicting reports and hence without a definitive set of measures it is impossible to assess whether there is any revealed symbolism via the measures known to have been in use. It remains a fine piece of work which we have yet to completely understand and unfortunately no amount of speculation without further evidence will resolve the questions.Harry Sivertsen

    Comment Author: Barry Sears

    What the statistics above show is that every planet orbits the sun and if you are standing on each of the planets, these are the number of days each planet would have in a year or for the time it would take for that planet to circle the sun. The statistics very clearly indicate that the planets farthest from the sun obviously have long years or revolutions around the sun so they logically have much more days. The planets closet to the sun have smaller years or less time to orbit the sun and so have proportionally fewer days per year. The relationship is rather obvious really, but please note the number of rotations or days specified here are what each planet would have if you lived on each planet, not increments of 24 hrs from earths perspective. If you were to sit on Mars and revolve one full revolution around the sun, you would experience 670 days, or rotations. So for Venus a year is 224 Earth days and it rotates 243 days so in a year Venus basically has one day if you sat on it.

    It is therefore logical to conclude that if the Earth had 420 days then yes as you say the rotations would be faster, but this is not the only answer. When considering the evolutionary changes that have occurred on Earth with regards to species size and adaptive changes, then your planetary movement suggestion could be reconsidered. It is perhaps far more logical to consider the possibility that 420 days in a year could be recorded if the distance of the Earth was further from the sun and this also explains the evolutionary changes.

    Just want to jump in to point out that Venus rotates so slowly because something flipped its axis nearly 180 degrees. This also makes its rotation a retrograde motion, which means there is serious drag on it, so the rotation is slowing down rapidly(cosmically speaking).

    What could have knocked a planet almost completely over?

    In fact, the Black Death did affect Africa. Egypt in particular. It was recently established that Nile Rat fleas are most likely to have been the original host of plague bacteria and Y. pestis epidemics actually began to show up in Egypt around 1500 BCE (Ebers Papyrus), much earlier that originally thought. While the bug did great damage locally, it did not reach the pandemic event stage due to the smaller, more disbursed population. Seems the Black Death requires dense population centers to become pneumonic and begin to burn through hosts.

    I mention Mount Shasta in my book "Secrets of the Pink Kush" as a known location for Big Foot AKA giants AKA tetraploid humans. It is one of the secret locations for the HIDDEN ONES.

     

    These people are not the Devil as Lucifer is the Devil and she, also a tetraploid human, runs the Hellenistic Western world and is trying to eridicate all patriarchal leaders from our world. She promises peace but only delivers war and deceit.

    Are you ready for the TRUTH?
