  • Reply to: Archaeologists May Have Discovered the Birthplace of King Arthur: Legends Come to Life?   7 years 9 months ago
    Comment Author: Cousin_Jack

    Here in Cornwall around the 6th century there was a battle between King Tewdwr of Brittainy and Penwith and some religious people. Tewdwr slaughtered some saints and others because they refused to worship his pagan gods. Tewdwrs settlement is not far from the administrative centre of the Hundred of Penwith (Connerton). So is there is a chance that King Arthur may have simply been King of Lesnewth, Lesnewth being the Hundred in which Tintagel was situated? Translated Lesnewth means “New Court”,  the Old Court being in Helston. A court was apparently a chieftains estate, and Lesnewth was the seat of a Celtic chieftain who ruled over the neighbouring Hundred of Trigg/Triggshire. "Trigg is mentioned by name during the 7th century, as "Pagus Tricurius", "land of three war hosts".The high incidence of imported pottery from the period found at Tintagel Castle suggest this was an area of high significance, where war bands from the region may have congregated”. Hope this helps in some way.

    A lot of those pictographs shown on this rock in Brazil look like plasma signatures.

    It disappoints me that so few people notice the crucial (and in my mind definitive) detail about the shape of the object. Do the object's ridges form a spiral (like a scew / bolt), or is it a stack of rings? A crinoid stalk appears to be stacked rings or segments that are all (for a distance) of the same diameter but they never form a spiral. The threads of a screw or bolt, however are of a spiral, and that is what should be focused on. If it is a spiral whose ridge diameters are of a consistent diameter, then this is a created object designed in specifications to perform a function; if so, then it IS A BOLT.

    The gods brought the Canaanites here when Cain was exiled from the Edin. The gods also marked them genetically so they could not grow beards.

    No brainwashing here mate. Your comments prove how little you understand about God and what I believe.

    Also, Jesus and YhWh are also myths. Most myths have a grain of truth to them.
    Also, the stories in the bible have been told over and over again.....a few THOUSAND years before the "birth of Christ"....yup, even the birth, death&resurection myths were told LONG before jesus was was born.....Excuse my typing. I'm arthritic.

    That would include YOUR God too. You cannot have it both ways. Your logic is faulty. YhWh is just another "God" created by men to control the masses.
    Your canned argument just shoes us that you ate incapable of entertaining any facts other than the ones that you've been programmed with.
    Christianity was a spin off of Judaism. It was made so that EVERYONE could be controlled and manipulated just like the Jews were/are (since goyum are not supposed to be allowed into TRUE Judaism because we are nothing more than "beasts of burden" put here to "serve God's CHOSEN PEOPLE"!!
    You really should learn more about what you are talking about before trying to condescend to and loom down upon others with far more info and far less brain washing than you.
    I was once brainwashed like you. Christianity was once called a cult....just like every religion YOU GUYS call cults!

    Cornwall is indeed a Celtic area of Britain, with a marvelous history, but it is also an English county with a county council: https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/council-and-democracy/

    Thank you for your comment. Regarding the offering of swords, you might be interested in seeing this article: https://web.stanford.edu/dept/archaeology/cgi-bin/archaeolog/?p=181

    And yet, I thoroughly enjoyed reading an article about a 'lost' history, despite the slight 'contextual' errors or omissions of place names in a more detailed and modern context.

    In fact, the map as is, provided me the proper context for where these events took place using present day, modern and commonly known nomenclature. well done, i say.

    btw, the information that swords were often placed in sacred bodies of water was new info to me. Further clarity came with Philips comments, so kudos there as well.

    well done guys. good article imho.

    Well, all the superstitions/religions aside. The problem is that mainstream archaeology and science in general refuse to acknowledge cyclical advancement when all over the globe we see evidence of advanced knowledge and technology which simply ceased at some time in the distant past only to begin again in the last 200 years, cycling back up.

    Sailing the seas was understood LONG before Columbus got lost. The Romans sailed the seas. And they weren’t the first. The Piri Riis map from the 1500’s, shows the coastline antarctica deviod of ice (and topographically correct) and it was copied from much older source maps according to its author.

    Somewhere around 12K years ago there was a major cataclysm which wiped out a lot of the worlds population. It also erased the knowledge those people had. There are ancient Chinese anchors on the seabed off the coast of California. A “round” earth wasn’t heresy before the rise of the current round of superstition/religions.

    Slave traders from Byzantium or North Africa is another possibility. Blond slaves were in great demand. In North Africa at this time, a lighter skin tone was associated with the aristocracy, a legacy of the period (400-700 Ad) when the Visigoths ruled North Africa, and one way for a wealthy Moor to improve his family pedigree was to have children by a woman from northern Europe. This phenomenon is discussed by Cervantes, who spent several years in Algiers as a prisoner of war in the sixteenth century. Setting up some sort of entertainment appealing to children on the ouskirts of town prior to abducting them is plausible.

    All day I have been trying to figure out why this is such a strong Consensus going back throughout history. Know what I think? I think that even as intelligent as are in current scientific community is there are still some deep rooted Primal Instincts to be cautious of Water or maybe even some deep set Superstitions in the subconscious resulting from early Myths, Spiritualties or Ancient Texts that cause the subconscious to automatically assume all Mankind throughout the ages were born with Hydrophobia. Kind of like the deep rooted fear of all Serpents this has been going on for a longtime Example:

    2. If any one bring an accusation against a man, and the accused go to the river and leap into the river, if he sink in the river his accuser shall take possession of his house. But if the river prove that the accused is not guilty, and he escape unhurt, then he who had brought the accusation shall be put to death, while he who leaped into the river shall take possession of the house that had belonged to his accuser."~ Hammurabi's Code

    Would you honor me with the time to speculate on what you think causes this common Consensus that is greatly harming the study of Historical fact? I'm pretty sure no one can ever prove this assumption, Yet it is unanimously accepted as Gospel.

    Indeed England and Wales did not exist then. The map shows the countries as they are today, so that those who don’t live in the UK get some idea of where these places mentioned are. And indeed I did know that Cornwall was in Dumnonia, but in a short article I had no space to describe how Britian was divided up in the post-Roman period. Cornwall is an English county, not a principality like Wales or a country like Scotland.

  • Reply to: Could we see the return of ancient extinct species?   7 years 9 months ago
    Comment Author: osiris

    Yes we will. And science loves to play god so we can be sure they’ll be bringing back exitince species but NOT for our amusement. Only for Military and Government control purposes. Imagine a swarm of giant mosquitos or bees (controlled by microchips) attacking protesting crowds. Think of how the drug companies will benefit from these incidents.

    So once again we’re pushing back our GUESS dates. How convenient. Keep it up and soon we’ll be just about right.

    Fish using waterways to migrateis something different than plodding pedestrians treking over vast areas of frozen tundra. Apparently science refuses to give early man the possible credit that he may very well have come here by way of water. And probably did. But ‘science’ will continue to parrot it’s party line.

  • Reply to: Great Pyramid of Giza Was Lopsided Due to Construction Error   7 years 9 months ago
    Comment Author: osiris

    The sphinx exhibits clear and undeniable evidence of water erosion. The inner core stones are not the same material as the outer casing stone. So it looks to be a rebuild of an original.

    It has recently come to light that the pyramids exhibit water erosion about 1/3 the way up. There hasn’t been water in the giza plateau for some 12000 years. I think mainstream archaeology is attempting to deceive the world with the 5000 yr old myth.
