  • Reply to: The Lost Labyrinth of Ancient Egypt – Part 3: Uncovering its Location   8 years 2 months ago
    Comment Author: Perr

    The roof of the building is under several feet of sand AND is almost completely under water because the groundwater table.
    This site is not going to be vandalised soon (luckily!)

    As far as I know, no actions have been taken to drain the location of the groundwater. I believe I've read somewhere that draining is nearly impossible as it is the groundwater table which is fed by the Nile.
    Ànd the fact that a canal is now running over the supposed location of the labyrinth.

    I hope that Egypt will start trying to do something here (with or without help from other counties/groups) as I'm convinced that this IS the place the 'lost' labyrinth is located. Flinders Petrie already found a large slate of stone, which he (mis)identified as the floor of the labyrinth, thinking the structure was already demolished. LiDaR and such have already concluded there are stone structures underneath the sand, so basically what Petrie found was the roof!

    I assume the scan was done about December,
    Now they have analysed them, its time to decide what has to be done, not speculate what MIGHT be there
    The whole world is waitig to se what there is, if its nothing, we would still like to know

    Sea levels were much much lower during the last ice age – so maybe that is how old they actually are ?

    Have just done a quickie experiment to ascertain how different the TS face might look if it had been obtained by contact-imprinting, resulting in some lateral expansion (see earlier). It's a crude experiment, admittedly, but a photo of the as-is TS image on plain paper was stuck to the side of a wine bottle so as to cover about a third of the circumference, then re-photographed.

    That's the regular image (left) from Shroud Scope on the left versus the ssumption-laden curvature-adjusted image (right).

    So which is the correct one - the fuller face, or the leaner sallow look? I leave it to readers to judge.

    Just to bore a very tiny hole in a non-art covered place would not be hard – a tiny camera on the end of a wire could tell them all they need to know – then they could cut a piece of the wall away just big enough to get thru and keep it on the side to display it – would anyone mind that – surely not ?  If diggers in ancient times did not explore & DIG, we would have never known about a lot of history. 

  • Reply to: Study Says that Hobbits of Flores Island Are Not Homo Sapiens   8 years 2 months ago
    Comment Author: Mick McNulty

    An anthropologist once made an interesting point. He said all these remains classed as early human can't possibly all be our ancestors, because although we must have a few ancestral strands we can't possibly have a dozen or more. Some must be ancestors of apes like gorillas and orangutang, or of other great ape species which didn't make it, or the ancestors of sub-species of humans which didn't make it either.

    If they are under water now, where were they when they got carved?

  • Reply to: Examining the Rich Tomb of a Mysterious Celtic Princess   8 years 2 months ago
    Comment Author: Paracelse

    Well it is not entirely true that this discovery in unique, The Vix museum in France has several artifact from the grave of a Celtic Princess.  Although not as old as this one, it shows that Celtic women were not subjected to a patriarcal system

    I do not know if the link will go through but I will try

    How would he know this?
    Have they drilled a hole in the wall and inserted a camera yet ?
    Radar cant tell what is behind these walls
    There is a good chance there could be another tomb hehind the wall, but until eith the wall is knocked down or a camera inserted, we can only speculate
    Now is to proive what everyone is hoping for, speculation isn't very good, we need proof and updates

  • Reply to: Tomb Hidden by History, Now Revealed: Wet Nurse of Tutankhamun May have been His Own Sister   8 years 2 months ago
    Comment Author: Derrick

    Yes it is exciting news, but nothing new is posted, all they have done is these radar scans, they haven't even decided where, how or even if they are going to drill a hole in the wall and use a camera to see if there is anything there
    I may not be an archaeologist, but I have visited every tomb when I go to Luxor, I have always found something new, something I never knew or saw
    Its a shame you don't all a guide (who knows a lot more than I do) into these tombs, I am sure they could tell me more about them, as most guides used to be archaeologist's
    I think the valley of the Kings is a marvellous place
    But Egypt wants and needs tourists, this could bring them in their hordes
    They could insert the probe and connect it to a screen and everyone could see what is there
    Just sitting on your thumbs isn't doing any good at all
    Okay, I don't expect daily updates, but I do expect someone to do something rather than just speculate
    We have the technology, start using it

    How can this not be interesting?  Every discovery like this is interesting and helps to build the story of this amazing civilisation.

  • Reply to: The Mysterious Veil of Veronica: Masterpiece or Miracle?   8 years 2 months ago
    Comment Author: Colin Berry

    “And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. History became legend. Legend became myth”

    J.R.R.Tolkien in ‘Lord of the Rings’

    Seems that progression was turned on its head where the Veil of Veronica is concerned. Myth became legend. Legend became history. Some things that should have been forgotten were not lost. Or, put another way, some things that were “found” should not have been remembered (as in ‘false folk memories’ etc).

    However, there’s a possible link between the Veil of Veronica and the Shroud of Turin, one this Shroud-researcher stumbled upon and reported some 2 years ago.

    https://shroudofturinwithoutallthehype.wordpress.com/2014/02/17/am-i-the...

    It’s a motif on the recently discovered (2009) Machy mould for a variant of the Lirey Pilgrim’s badge, with a image of an arguably ‘Veronica-like’ disembodied face, clearly that of Jesus, directly above the word SUAIRE (a historical French alternative to “linceul”, i.e. shroud).

    Machy is just a couple of kilometres as the bird flies across rolling Champage country from Lirey, each being tiny hamlets. The Machy mould (engraved stone used as cast with molten lead/tin alloy for a badge or medallion) has both similarities and differences with the better known Lirey Pilgrim’s Badge housed in a Paris museum. It’s the differences that are intriguing, ones that historian Ian Wilson has deliberated upon with considerable finesse in three consecutive BSTS Newsletters.

    See his pdf monographs in No. 76,77and 78.

    More later, should anyone be interested.

    Comment Author: Mo F.

    All research I've done, and built upon conflicts with your report. Paris has only 2-3 million people, currently and the construction/ relocation took place over the span of 12 years not two, and people were buried in the catacombs during the revolution. The latter was not exclusive to post revolutionary burials.

    Thanks again for another fascinating article. Morphologically many of these seem very redolent of the finds that are spread right across southern Africa, popularised by Michael Tellinger - who has a very different take on their origins and purpose(s).

    As if/when they find Atlantis in South Spain. Or when they uncover that 1000 ft sleeping Buddha in Afghanistan.

    Just saying.

    The ship carrying the beeswax put aground just south of Manzanita, Oregon and is well known in the area. Several books have been written about it. It was heading for the Philippines when a storm put it aground. It is rumored to have had some treasure and there have been plenty of searches for it. The blocks of beeswax have been found up until about 1930. It is likely that the ship was the one depicted in the movie "Goonies".

    sorry but the reliability of C14 like that last guy said is only good to 50k years ago.

    so this whole idea of it being a triceratops from 32k Years ago is vanquished. done.

    the idea that somehow BIG science has and is trying to pull anything over anyones eyes is pure CT drivel and anyone who thinks logically should depart from these types of craziness
