Fossilized footprints are quite rare on our planet, and therefore are of particular interest to archaeologists. After all, ancient fossils can reveal secrets about the ancestors of people, and about what happened on our planet in the prehistoric period.
This review contains an incredible dozen of fossils that will be of interest even to people far from scientific research.

1. Laetol traces

In 1976, anthropologist Mary Leakey discovered the world's oldest human footprints in Laetoli, Tanzania. They were extruded in a layer of volcanic ash 3.6 million years old. Scientists attribute these footprints to Australopithecus afarensis, an ancient hominid whose remains were found in the same layer of sediment. The subsequent volcanic eruption buried under itself and preserved these imprints for centuries. Initially, scientists believed that the footprints belonged to two people (more precisely, their ancestors), but now it is believed that they belong to four different Australopithecus.
These footprints are the earliest example of a hominid erectus, which was a real leap in evolution. The legs of Australopithecus afarensis were more like the legs of modern humans than monkeys. However, their average stride length was significantly shorter (long lower limbs developed only in Homo erectus).

2. Traces of the devil

On the western flank of the Roccamonfina volcano in southern Italy, one can find the "Footprints of the Devil" - ancient footprints in a frozen volcanic stream approximately 385,000 - 325,000 years old. These footprints were left by humanoids descending the steep slope of the volcano, with even rare handprints preserved where they leaned against the slope for balance. No one knows who made them, but scientists suspect that the most "likely candidate" is Homo erectus, or Heidelberg Man.

3. Footprints of Eve

Footprints that were found in 1997 in a deserted area west coast South Africa, are the oldest known fossilized footprints of Homo sapiens. They date back to 117,000 years old and are called "footprints of Eve". Interestingly, they are almost indistinguishable from footprints. modern man, except that the hominin who left them was about 140 centimeters tall (moreover, it is believed that it was an adult).

4. Footprints in Hapiesberg

In 2014, a storm on an English beach exposed the oldest human footprints outside of Africa. The prints are 850,000 years old, that is, they are half a million years older than the most ancient people (as scientists previously assumed) who began to populate Europe. Experts believe that they were made by some of the predecessors of humans. At that time, England was connected with continental Europe by a land isthmus, and the climate in it was similar to modern Scandinavian.
This raises questions about when clothing, shelter, and fire were actually invented. Also, these prints change the whole picture of how humanity migrated from Africa. Experts now believe that hominids may have colonized Britain as many as ten separate times.

5. Turkana Hunters

In 2009, researchers discovered human footprints near Kenya's Lake Turkana that date back 1.5 million years. The footprints were too old to belong modern people, therefore, the researchers considered that they belonged to Homo erectus, which are considered the first hominids with long legs and short arms - that is, adapted for vertical walking.
The presence of prints of several males nearby indicates that these hominids were engaged in joint work, presumably hunting. The researchers studied other animal tracks in the area and determined that there used to be meadows near the lake. Herbivores usually moved in a straight line from grass to water, while humans lived along the coast like predators. It is likely that they were more carnivorous than modern humans.

6. Footprints on Calvert Island

Footprints on Calvert Island in British Columbia may be the oldest human footprints in North America. Their age is 13,200 years, and they belonged to three individuals, which, according to scientists, were a family. The study of prints is extremely difficult because they are located in the intertidal zone. More research needs to be done to authenticate their age, as neighboring rocks date back as little as 2,000 years.
However, previous radiocarbon dating showed the footprints to be 13,000 years old, providing evidence that North America was first settled along the coast. Pacific Ocean. Previously, experts believed that people settled south through an ice-free corridor east of the Rocky Mountains.

7 Hohokam Footprints

In 2015, a construction crew unearthed fossilized ancient footprints near Tucson, USA. They are 2500 - 3500 years old and belong to people from the settlement of the Hohokam culture (which is considered a transition between hunter-gatherers and agriculture). The prints belong to men, women, children and dogs. They were deeply pressed into the soft earth of an irrigated field, which was subsequently flooded.
There is now debate as to whether irrigation in agriculture is the Hohokam's own invention or whether this technique first appeared in Mesoamerica. Some even believe that this settlement is migrants from Mexico. Others disagree with this theory, pointing out that there is no evidence for ancient irrigated agriculture in Mesoamerica.

8. Imprints near the mountain of God

In the shadow of a Tanzanian volcano, known to the Maasai as the "Mountain of God", researchers have discovered 400 fossilized ancient footprints that date back 19,000 years. Some of the footprints show people jogging, other people who left these footprints had broken fingers, and still others belong to mothers with children. The researchers initially thought that the footprints were made in the ash that fell from the sky after the volcanic eruption. This would mean that the prints are 120,000 years old, but their age was later revised.

9 Stone Age Fishermen

The 5,000-year-old footprints of two people on the island of Lolland in Denmark show how ancient people migrated along the sea and faced its destructive power. The prints show the life of two Stone Age fishermen who set traps for fish on the shallows. The tracks also indicate that fishermen were forced to enter the icy waters of the Baltic in an attempt to save their traps from flooding (at the time the prints were made, the level Baltic Sea increased sharply due to the melting of the glaciers of Northern Europe).

10. Footprints near Lake Willandra

In 2003, local Aboriginal people found the oldest known footprints in Australia. Found among the dunes of the dry lakeside of Willandra, the prints date back 20,000 years. They are the largest collection of Pleistocene human footprints in the world (almost 700 footprints have been found, 400 of which are grouped into 23 chains). The smallest details survived: the dirt that seeped between the toes, the hole from the spear on which the man leaned, and the squiggles that could have been drawn by a child.

In early July, an unusual natural phenomenon happened in the remote taiga. Forty kilometers from the city of Vyazemsky, near the Podkhorenok River, in the taiga, several hectares of forest were felled, as if someone had walked with a huge club on the ground, breaking, turning centuries-old trees with the roots.

Until now, the village of Sheremetyevo was of interest to historians only as one of the places cultural monuments Neolithic - New Stone Age, - says Mikhail Efimenko. - Here on the rocks they found drawings of primitive people - petroglyphs: funny horses and scenes from hunting life. But what I saw amazed me. Stones from another world, from another culture, from another time, from another civilization…

There are many findings, but few explanations. To understand their nature, the scientist sat in the library for a week and reread books on culture ancient world: Egypt, Greece, Rome. I compared photographs of hewn stones of different lengths, widths and colors, which are scattered across the taiga. The profession helped, Efimenko is an architect with thirty years of experience.

Look what incredibly large ovals I found in the forest, - continues Mikhail Vasilyevich. - They are as tall as a man. And what do they remind? It seems there is a small mouth, you can even see the nose, eyes, chin, which does not allow the stone head to roll over. But these are not human heads ... This is how a stone was cut in Egypt in the eighth century BC. The oval is nothing more than a stone "Aries head" in the first stage of processing. A Khabarovsk scientist saw a similar head in the temple of Amon in the city of Karnak, there is even an alley of stone heads. Amun in ancient Egyptian mythology deified the sun and was depicted as a ram. There was such a cult when a ram was sacrificed.

Pay attention to the stone drawing, - says the scientist. - Broken frame. This is the Greek method of stone processing. The traces of stonecutters left on the stone date back to about the sixteenth century AD. In the Far East, such masters appear not earlier than the twentieth century, and even then they were not able to “describe” the stone in such a filigree way. Even when a bridge was being built across the Amur, stonecutters were invited from Europe.

Stone processing "in a frame", according to Efimenko, was used during the construction of the Parthenon temple in Athens in 438 BC. It was built on the initiative of Pericles, and the architects were Iktin and Kallikrat. Today, only ruins remain of the temple ... But from where? There is not a single stone building for a hundred versts, there are wooden houses all around ...

How these stones came to us, I can’t say yet, - says our guest. - Most likely, there were masters who knew the secrets of processing. But I can clarify that these stones never fit into the walls, they were not built by buildings. They don't have a solution. They seem to be ready for construction. Everything started and instantly abandoned.

In some stone blocks, Efimenko noticed through holes. They were as if from a puncture of the unprecedented power of the weapon. The holes were melted on the outside, and the glassy crust indicated that these were traces of exposure to enormous temperature.

Efimenko's expedition even managed to find a quarry on the banks of the Ussuri, where the "Parthenon stones" were mined. They were broken with the help of cuts - small squares along the edges, as if splitting a block, like a coconut, first into shapeless pieces, and then, by beating the edges, they obtained the necessary geometry. Holes in the form of bells characteristic of Hellenistic times were found in the stones. They served either for transporting cargo, or were ordinary drain holes - drainage systems when they were assembled in buildings. Exactly the same "bells" in stone blocks were found by archaeologists at the excavations of Pompeii, ancient city on the coast Gulf of Naples who died in 1979 AD during the eruption of Vesuvius.

Near the quarry, Mikhail Efimenko also discovered the entrance to the labyrinth, in underground city. This entrance is gentle and resembles a large funnel in the ground. Local residents blocked the entrance with stones so that the village boys would not go underground, otherwise it is not known where these ancient catacombs can lead. They say they are so long that they can stretch to China, and even to Tibet ... How to believe in this?

Meanwhile, in the history of the Amur region, the Middle Ages is the most mysterious and unexplored historical period. A white spot in history, because it is believed that at that time those tribes that lived along the Amur disappeared and fell into decline. Even the powerful states of Bohai and Jurchen, which existed in the expanses of the Amur region from the 7th to the 12th centuries and were quite advanced military feudal powers, were defeated. As it is written in all textbooks, “the peoples of the Far East lost their statehood and found themselves at the stage of a patriarchal system…”. What happened next? Maybe a natural disaster? There is no answer to this question.

Of course, the tornado that swept a few weeks ago in the taiga in the Vyazemsky district could not move the stones from one side of the world to the other; most likely, it exposed those finds that the earth had been hiding for many years.

According to Mikhail Efimenko, archaeologists are waiting for the most interesting finds, the secret of which is still kept by the taiga in the Khabarovsk Territory, and they will not be comparable with the pyramids in Egypt and the excavations of Troy. There was at least some idea about those cities and civilizations, epic images and ancient narratives, books came down, but we still don’t know anything about the civilization of “Aries”, the city of Tartaria (underworld). The story is just beginning here.

In the development of life on Earth, the history of mankind is only a brief moment. The history of the development of civilization began much earlier than the appearance of writing, as evidenced by numerous archaeological data. Thousands of years ago, a great civilization lived and created on Earth, the level of which we have not reached today.

Why did the great civilization of antiquity disappear? Perhaps the flourishing of cultures was interrupted by the Flood, which is described in the Bible, the Sumerian "Tale of Gilgamesh", hundreds of legends and myths of ancient peoples? During brief history humanity on our planet was a sharp melting of glaciers at the end of the last ice age, which ended between 15,000 and 10,000 BC. e. Traces of an ancient civilization have been found on all continents of the Earth:

PYRAMIDS OF GIZA, GREAT SPHINX, OSIRION, CHICHEN-ITZA, PALENQUE, TEOTIHUACAN, MACHU-PICCHU, NASCA GEOGLYPHS, OLYANTAYTAMBO, SAXAYUAMAN, TIAHUANACO, YONAGUNI, BAALBEK.

PYRAMIDS OF GIZA (EGYPT)

Three main pyramids of Giza

The three main Pyramids of Giza are positioned relative to the Nile Valley in such a way that they reproduce the position of the three stars of Orion's Belt relative to the Milky Way in 10450 BC. Arguing with astronomical calculations, Robert Bauval and Adrian Gilbert ("Secrets of the Pyramids") put forward a hypothesis about the estimated time of the beginning of the construction of the Giza complex - 10450 BC.

The British writer and journalist Graham Hancock (The Enigma of the Sphinx) called the space monuments of Giza "a stone book that came down from heaven", since the three great pyramids of Giza are the earthly counterparts of the three stars of Orion's Belt, and the Sphinx is the earthly representation of the constellation Leo.

The ancient Egyptians called the Giza complex - "the house of Mr. Rostau" - one of the titles of God Osiris. According to the list of the ancient Greek historian Manetho, the reign of God Osiris is the middle of the 11th millennium BC. e.

The Great Pyramid - the pyramid of Cheops consists of 203 rows of masonry, 2.3 million blocks, weighs over 6 million tons. The weight of especially large blocks is 10-15 tons. In ancient times, the pyramid was lined with 115,000 polished slabs, each weighing 10 tons. The dimensions of the slabs were maintained with an accuracy of about 0.2 mm, the joints were adjusted so that it was impossible to insert a knife blade into them.

The ancient builders of the Great Pyramid with outstanding accuracy adjusted the angles of the base of the pyramid to 90 °: the southeast angle is 89 ° 562273, the northeast - 90 ° 3223, the southwest - 89 ° 562273, the northwest - 89 ° 592583. Such precise construction technique defies explanation.

“However, there are no traces of such an evolutionary process in Egypt. The Great Pyramid and its Giza neighbors appeared as if from a black hole in the history of architecture, so deep and wide that neither its bottom nor sides can be seen ”(Graham Hancock“ Traces of the Gods ”).

GREAT SPHINX (EGYPT)

The Sphinx is the largest solid sculpture in the world: 20 meters high, over 70 meters long. According to the "Emerald Tablets" of Hermes Trismegistus, the age of the Sphinx is 10 - 15 thousand years.

The American clairvoyant Edgar Cayce claimed that the Sphinx was built between 10490 and 10390 BC. e. Some researchers believe that the Great Sphinx is an indicator of the Age of Leo according to the equinox calendar and corresponds to the period between 10970 and 8810 BC.

American geologist Robert Schoch argues that the Sphinx's furrows were formed by water, which would require at least a thousand years of constant, heavy rains. Computer calculations based on this theory have shown that the Sphinx is 10-15 thousand years old.

OSIRION - ABYDOS (EGYPT)

Osirion is composed of huge monolithic blocks of granite using the technique of megalithic masonry. The stone is carefully processed, the blocks are fitted to each other without a gap and the use of mortar. central part The building has two colonnades of 10 granite columns. The cross section of each column is a square with a side of 2.5 meters, the height of the column is about 4 meters, the weight of each monolith is 65 tons! The corners of some monoliths have a complex polygonal profile, the blocks are joined according to the puzzle principle.

The buildings of Osirion are oriented strictly to the northeast, as is the Belt of Orion, which, according to the beliefs of the ancient Egyptians, became the House of Eternity of Osiris. According to ancient legends, in Osirion there is the tomb of the God Osiris, who ruled more than 10 thousand years ago.

There are many facts indicating that Osirion was subjected to destructive long-term exposure to water, erosion, which could occur during the "wet" period Egyptian history, which occurred at the end of the last Ice Age - about 11 thousand years BC.

CHICEN IZA (MEXICO)

Chichen Itza is the most famous Mayan center in the Mexican Yucatan. Until now, there is no answer to the many secrets and mysteries that the witnesses of the Mayan and Toltec eras in Chichen Itza keep: the Kukulkan Pyramid, the Great Ball Game Field, the Caracol Observatory, the Temple of Warriors, the Temple of the Jaguars, the “Group of a Thousand Columns”.

Who told the Maya astronomical knowledge about Uranus, Neptune and Pluto? What was the meaning of the Mayan calendars with calculations for millennia ahead? Scientists believe that the principle of the calendar was put at the basis of the pyramid of Kukulkan, and the pyramid had astronomical significance.

Researchers put forward a hypothesis about the foundation of Chichen Itza by representatives highly developed civilization in the period before the Flood, which is dated to the era of Leo.

PALENQUE (MEXICO)

Researchers express different versions of the origin of Palenque. The complex was abandoned a long time ago, traces of its inhabitants disappeared, and the local population did not have any reliable information about the ancient ruins. According to one of the hypotheses of Palenque, the “Great City of Serpents” was built in ancient times by a people who came from the Atlantic under the leadership of a leader named Wotan.

Scientist, traveler Andrey Sklyarov (" ancient mexico without crooked mirrors") believed that the large blocks of some Palenque structures retained traces of processing by advanced technologies, many times superior to the capabilities of all Mesoamerican civilizations known to historians.

The ancient founders of Palenque used technologies that are found on other continents. Some elements of block processing and the so-called polygonal masonry of the Palenque Palace show similarities with the ancient buildings of the Egyptian Osirion.

TEOTIHUACAN (MEXICO)

Teotihuacan, like the Egyptian pyramids, is an amazing example of geometric, mathematical and astronomical mysticism. The development of Teotihuacan took place along the Road of the Dead. The main buildings are the Pyramid of the Sun, the Pyramid of the Moon and the Pyramid of Quetzalcoatl.

The perimeter of the base of the Pyramid of the Sun is 895 meters, its original height was about 71 meters. The ratio of the perimeter of the base of the pyramid of the Sun to its height is 4 "pi", which means that the ancient builders of the pyramid knew the number "pi"?!

According to legend, after the Flood, the Gods returned to Teotihuacan to "re-create the world." As Andrei Sklyarov, an advocate of alternative history, wrote (“Ancient Mexico without crooked mirrors”), this hypothesis is confirmed by the orientation of the Teotihuacan complex not strictly to the north pole, but to a direction that deviates from north by 15.5 degrees to the east, which can be explained by a change in the position of the poles after the Flood.

MACHU PICCHU (PERU)

Until now, researchers have not received answers to the questions: what is the true age of Machu Picchu, who built it, why and for what purposes was it built on a hard-to-reach cliff, and why was it abandoned?

Machu Picchu is built on top of a mountain range, at an altitude of 2450 meters above sea level, to build in such an inaccessible place required incredible skill. During the construction of the terraces of Machu Picchu, giant blocks were used, some weighing up to 200 tons. The size and shape of the blocks of the "Main Temple" and the "Temple of Three Windows" shows that the masonry of the walls was created by a highly technologically advanced civilization. The temples were built according to the earthquake-resistant technology of megalithic polygonal masonry. Among the blocks there are massive hewn polyhedrons with sharp edges.

Perhaps these structures existed millennia before the rise of the Inca Empire? Perhaps the Incas built Machu Picchu on the ruins of much more ancient structures of the megalithic culture? The American writer, popularizer of the theory of extraterrestrial origin of man, Zakharia Sitchin, in the book Armageddon Postponed, hypothesizes that the stone structures and megalithic walls of Machu Picchu were the creations of representatives of a prehistoric civilization.

GEOGLYPHS OF NASCA (PERU)

One of the mysteries of the past of mankind is the huge and bizarre drawings - the geoglyphs of the Nazca desert plateau. Their purpose is unknown to anyone, as well as their age. Local residents say that these images are not the work of people, but of demigods - Viracocha, who left their traces in the Andes many thousands of years ago.

Almost all of the drawings are made on a cyclopean scale, the lines sometimes stretch to the very horizon, they intersect and overlap each other, uniting in mysterious patterns that make the Nazca desert look like a giant drawing board.

According to the results of many expeditions to Peru, a number of scientists came to the conclusion that the Nazca plateau is part of a frozen mudflow with pronounced "tongues" descending between the surrounding mountains, which were formed during the return of the waters of a powerful tsunami that hit the South America during the Flood.

OLYANTAYTAMBO (PERU)

Ollantaytambo is located at an altitude of 2800 meters above sea level. The powerful walls of the fortress are assembled from stone blocks that weigh tens of tons, the blocks are fitted to each other with amazing accuracy, although they have joints that are not rectangular, but of very different shapes. Stone monoliths, the so-called platform of the Temple of the Sun, reach more than 4 meters in height, their weight is estimated at hundreds of tons, they are placed at the very top of a steep row of artificial terraces.

As Andrei Sklyarov wrote (“Peru and Bolivia long before the Incas”), “in order to deliver blocks weighing tens of tons to Ollantaytambo, they had to be lowered down a very steep slope of about 800 meters, then transported through a stormy mountain river, dragged upstream river for about 8 km, then climb a steep slope to the construction site. The ability of the Indians to manually move such huge blocks over such rough terrain is very doubtful.

The nature of the destruction of Ollantaytambo indicates that the complex was destroyed as a result of the catastrophic events of the Flood, which for South America are associated with a powerful tsunami that came from the Pacific Ocean.

SUCCAYUAMAN (PERU)

Sacsayhuaman is located at an altitude of 3650 meters above sea level. Its "calling card" is three tiers of zigzag walls over 350 meters long and over 15 meters in total height.

The unique structure was built from huge blocks, which were delivered here over rugged mountainous terrain from quarries remote at a distance of several tens of kilometers. The weight of the largest block, reaching more than 8 meters in height, is about 350 tons. Blocks of andesite, a very hard material, form a polygonal masonry with stones fitting together without any mortar.

In the chronicles of the Peruvian historian Garcilaso de La Vega, the authors of the construction are not named, he only retells local legends in his own words: “... these three walls were erected as if by magic, created by demons, not people - there are so many stones in them, and they are so huge ... Impossible to believe that these stones were cut in quarries, since the Indians had neither iron nor steel tools to remove and hew them ”

TIAHUANACO (BOLIVIA)

The Spanish historian, geographer, Catholic missionary Jose de Acosta, in his essay “The Natural and Moral History of the Indies,” tells how the Indians talk about their origin: “They mention a lot the flood that happened in their country ... The Indians say that all people drowned in this flood. But Viracocha came out of Lake Titicaca, who first settled in Tiahuanaco, where to this day you can see the ruins of ancient and very strange buildings, and from there he moved to Cuzco, from which the multiplication of the human race began ... "

Ancient legends say: “For some sin, people who lived in ancient times were destroyed by the Creator ... in the Flood. After the Flood, the Creator appeared in human form from Lake Titicaca. Then he created the sun, moon and stars. After that, he revived humanity on earth ... "

Based on excavations, ancient settlement- 14 thousand years. The Bolivian scientist Arthur Poznansky, having carried out astronomical calculations, determined the dating of Tiahuanaco - 15,000 BC.

YONAGUNI (JAPAN)

Pyramid and temple complex, resting on the seabed near the island of Yonaguni, according to scientists, rose above the surface of the water at least 10 thousand years ago, when the water level in the oceans was 40 meters lower than the current one.

The Japanese Step Pyramid is similar to the Pyramid of Djoser in Egypt. The blocks are hewn and neatly stacked in five steps in a ziggurat. Side base of the pyramid - 180 meters, height - 30 meters.

Professors of geology Masaaki Kimura and Robert Shoh, who studied the underwater complex, believe that the mysterious five-stage structure was artificially created more than 10 thousand years ago, when the bottom near the island was dry land, that is, at the end of the last ice age. Who was involved in such grandiose architecture is unknown.

BAALBEK (LEBAN)

The buildings of Baalbek are larger than the pyramid of Cheops, the largest granite blocks of which are the ceiling of the King's Chamber, weighing 50 - 80 tons. Colossal megalithic blocks, called trilithons, are 21 meters long, 5 meters high, 4 meters wide, weighing 800 tons each!

Moreover, these monoliths lie at an eight-meter height. On the blocks, traces of machining of the planes are visible. Despite their grandiose size, the blocks are so neatly stacked and so precisely connected to each other that it is almost impossible to stick even a razor blade between them. According to ancient legend, these blocks lay here forever and have long been considered sacred.

Two kilometers from the Baalbek terrace, in the nearest quarry, there is the so-called "Southern Stone", which is considered the largest processed stone in the world - 23 meters long, 5.3 meters wide and 4.55 meters high, its weight exceeds 1000 tons. The block at one end stuck into the ground at 30 degrees, which suggests that it was raised to a great height.

WHO COULD BUILD ALL THESE GIANT STRUCTURES, HOW AND FOR WHAT?

These questions have fired the human imagination for thousands of years. Academic science does not provide answers to these questions. Legends and myths tell different stories about the origin and purpose of ancient structures.

Many scientists and esotericists believe that " stone monuments"of our planet are the works of the Lemurians and Atlanteans and are built in such a way that they cannot be" pulled apart "and" lost.

American researcher James Churchward put forward the theory that the inhabitants of the Mu continent, which disappeared 25 thousand years ago, used technologies far superior to modern ones, including anti-gravity, which allowed them to move huge objects and build colossal buildings.

Legends have been preserved that in ancient times people possessed unique technologies: “softening stones” and lifting and transferring stones using acoustics and sound. Perhaps the ancient people owned the torsion theory and used it to create stone processing technologies and build giant monuments of antiquity?

Undoubtedly, stone structures in different parts of the Earth were created by an unknown high-tech, possibly extraterrestrial civilization.

Scientist, esoteric Drunvalo Melchizedek in the book " ancient secret Flower of Life" writes that "during the transition of our planet and humanity from the third to the fourth dimension, all synthetic materials will return to the state of a chaotic set of elements from which they were created. This can explain the fact that a highly developed extraterrestrial civilization created structures using very durable natural materials that would have survived for tens of thousands of years. The artificial materials created by our ancestors did not go through the last interdimensional transition 13,000 years ago.”

According to a number of scientists, gigantic megalithic structures on Earth were built by a civilization of a planetary type. Japanese physicist Michio Kaku in his book Parallel Worlds writes about what will be the technologies of civilizations that are thousands and millions of years away from us.

By scanning the sky for signs of intelligent life, physicists look for objects with energy output consistent with Type I, II, and III civilizations. A Type I civilization is a civilization that uses planetary forms of energy.

Why don't we see alien civilizations in space? Perhaps they are so advanced that they have little interest in our primitive society like 0.7? Maybe they died during the period of time when they sought to achieve the status of a Type I civilization?

And how will humanity make the transition to a type I civilization? Perhaps the development of "space elevators" based on the latest achievements in the field of nanotechnology will bring humanity closer to space travel and help unravel the mysteries of ancient civilizations that left traces on our planet millennia ago?

Incredible finds of traces of ancient people, imprinted in stones, have long excited the minds of scientists and researchers of antiquity. It is not possible to find an explanation for many of them, since the discoveries are simply incredible and do not fit into the official history of the development of human culture at all.

“In the 5th volume of your journal (1822), notes on the prints of human legs, observed by Messrs. Schoolcraft and Benton on limestone of the Mesozoic era in the Mississippi Valley. Two footprints were visible on the limestone slab. Ever since my research on corrugated sandstone (published in Jameson's Edinburg Journal (Jameson's Edinburgh Journal)) I have been convinced that these are genuine human footprints left on limestone when it was wet. I can not now make arguments, which could convincingly support my opinion, however, I believe that these prints are proof that man existed at the time of the deposition of this limestone ... I am ready to find man and his contemporary animals in layers located much lower than those that are considered to be related my friend Sir Woodbine Parish (discoverer of Megatherium) says that similar impressions have been seen in South America, and that there has been a dispute among Catholics as to whether they are traces of the apostles." So wrote one of the eminent archaeologists of England in September 1837.

One of the most amazing discoveries of scientists is a shoe print in hard stone found in the Champs Elysees. Shoes, of course, belonged to a person. It was the first find of its kind. The most surprising thing is that the one who left the mark, apparently, wore shoes of the ancient Mexican style. This is indicated by a high narrow heel and a wide flat sole. The print is pretty well preserved. When looking at it, it seems as if a person stepped into the mud a day or two ago, but in fact this footprint is about 10 million years old.

This fossilized imprint was discovered by workers who were excavating new track for trolleys in the northeastern part of the park. The stone deposit began from a depth of one and a half meters underground and was a fine-grained slate with an admixture of limestone. And after some time, imprints of organic fossils were found here: fern, leaves and branches. However, the most amazing thing awaited the researchers ahead. A few days later, a clear imprint of an ancient fish was discovered at a depth of six meters. This completely baffled the researchers, since all the finds were absolutely identical in time.

But fossilized prints of bare and shod human feet began to be found in other places. For example, in the USA: in the states of Virginia, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, Utah, Oklahoma and Texas. Moreover, the clarity of the prints suggests that the traces were left at a time when the stones were soft clay or sand.

In 1912, two workers from Oklahoma smashed a piece of coal that didn't fit into the kiln. From there, a well-preserved earthenware jug fell out. In 1958, Professor Johann Hurzeler from the Museum of Natural History in Basel, Switzerland, found in a lump of coal the flattened jaw of a child, which, by its age, belonged to the Miocene era, i.e. dated back 10 million years.

Today, science announces the age of the formation of a person identical to the modern one, somewhere around 1 million years. Then how can the amazing finds be explained? Maybe they were travelers lost in time?

How else can one explain the fact that quite recently, in one of the quarries of a brick factory in the city of Odintsovo, an excavator discovered a petrified model of the human brain, which dates back to those times when life on Earth, according to science, did not exist at all?

In 1931, the American geologist G. Burru found fossilized prints of human feet. Ten footprints that are at least 250 million years old!

But the most amazing finds are the remains of dinosaurs with bullet wounds, which seems completely unbelievable. And in Rhodesia in 1928, a fossilized, shot-through skull of a Neanderthal was found, and it was found that the wound and age of the fossil were identical.

However, versions about strange traces have been expressed more than once by ufologists. They believe that, perhaps, both the fossilized remains and the traces do not belong to travelers at all, but to aliens from other planets. In support of their arguments, for example, they cite a find on the small river Narada, which is located in the eastern part of the Ural Mountains. In 1991, gold diggers discovered unusual spiral-shaped objects here. A study was conducted that showed: the find consisted of various metals - copper, tungsten and cobalt, and their age was about 300 - 320 million years. They were recognized as artificially created, and the spirals themselves obey the golden ratio.

The most amazing version of the formation of this kind of fossils belongs to John Michell and Robert Rickard. They suggested that the stones themselves are a living organism. From time to time they seem to copulate and as a result form strange cubs, which are inexplicable finds.

Yes, there are many versions, but none of them has yet received the approval of historians. When will we know the answers to endless questions? Apparently, not soon, because it is easier for researchers to leave the question open than to admit their inability to answer it, while destroying the coherent theory of official science.

Pyramids and curses of the pharaohs

At the beginning of the 20th century, this was very much reported in the newspapers; it was said that dozens of people died due to the fact that, having disturbed the peace of the mummies of the pharaohs, they sent the curse of the pharaohs on themselves.

The ancient Egyptians believed that the body that would live in the other world, the so-called Ka, would not survive if the earthly body was not in a normal state. For this, the bodies of dead people were mummified and (who could afford it) were placed in a sarcophagus. The sarcophagus, especially among the pharaohs, was made of precious metals and had the shape of a body. Various items were also left next to the deceased, which a person would certainly need after death: money, food, jewelry, weapons, etc. The sarcophagus, in turn, was placed in a pyramid, the construction of which is a separate mystery. The ancient Egyptians went to great lengths to ensure the maximum peace of the mummy. To do this, they arranged false passages, failures, collapsing ceilings, closing rooms, falling stones, etc.

The procedure for the burial of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs also included the rite of casting a spell that protects the mummy from the anxieties of the outside world. As history shows, this procedure proved to be very effective.

However, this did not stop the robbers and they resolutely tried to enter the burial places in order to enrich themselves.

So, these are the people who fell victim to the curses of the Egyptian pharaohs.

Once, in one of the tombs of the valley of the pyramids, a human corpse was found, and not far from it was a tablet on which it was written: "the spirit of the deceased will break the robber's neck." The thief was lying with a broken neck because of a stone that had been specially placed in the tomb as a trap that had fallen on him.

The Englishman Paul Brighton, having learned that many tourists visiting the stone bowels of the great pyramid of Cheops feel bad, decided to check the rumors about supposedly wandering spirits there. To do this, he entered the burial room of Cheops. However, for him it ended in failure: after a while he was taken out of there in a semi-conscious state. Later, he admitted that he lost consciousness from indescribable horror.

Egyptian archaeologist Mohammed Zakaria Ghoneim was lucky enough to discover an unknown ancient Egyptian pyramid with an alabaster sarcophagus, the secret of which is preserved to this day. The excavations were coming to an end, and it seemed that the path to the tomb was about to be cleared, when a catastrophe suddenly occurred. One of the stone blocks suddenly collapsed and dragged several workers underground. There was a terrible collapse of sand and stones, which buried people under it. Then one person died, the rest managed to be saved. The rumor increased the number of victims by 83 times. The entire pyramid was said to have collapsed, burying the expedition. An investigation began, and excavations were suspended. Not a single local worker now wanted to even come close to the pyramid. People were terribly scared. And there was a reason!

Three years of persistent search, which were subsequently continued by this archaeologist, led to the discovery of the name of the hitherto unknown pharaoh of the III dynasty of Sekhemkhet.

But there was absolutely nothing in his sarcophagus. Empty sarcophagus! Or did it contain the formidable spirit of the pharaoh? It is very likely that this is so, because shortly after his discovery, Mohammed Zakaria Ghoneim died tragically: he drowned in the Nile.

In the autumn of 1922, a significant event took place in the history of archaeological science. English archaeologist Howard Carter discovered the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamen in the Valley of the Kings. On February 16, 1923, Carter and Lord Carnarvon, who financed his enterprise, opened the tomb in the presence of several guests. In addition to the sarcophagus, there were many different items, including jewelry. It was a triumph not only for a successful archaeologist, but also for an enterprising lord banker and collector. In the room with the sarcophagus lay a tablet with a short and clear inscription, which read as follows: "Death will quickly overtake the one who disturbs the peace of the Pharaoh."

Since no one knew the ancient Egyptian language at that time, no one understood what this hieroglyphic inscription meant. However, later this archaeologist, having deciphered the inscription, hid the tablet so that the workers would not take the warning too seriously.

"When we finished work in the antechamber of the tomb, our nervous system was incredibly strained," Carter later wrote.

Even before the opening of the pyramid, the English clairvoyant Count Haimon sent a letter to Lord Carnarvon. The text was: "Lord Carnarvon, do not enter the tomb, disobedience leads to death. First you will have a disease from which you will not recover. Death will take you in Egypt." Something else was said about the "curse of the pharaohs." The Lord was alarmed in earnest. Friends advised him to turn to a famous fortuneteller named Velma. The clairvoyant, having examined his hand, said that she "sees the possibility of death associated with the curse of the pharaoh." In fright, the lord decided to stop excavations, but it was too late: the preparations for them had gone too far. The Lord decided to challenge the mystical forces... And it ended tragically for him!

Just six weeks later, 57-year-old Lord Carnarvon suddenly fell ill. At first it was believed that his illness was caused by the bite of mosquitoes. Then it turned out that while shaving he cut himself. Be that as it may, but as a result, the lord died suddenly for an unexplained reason. Everything happened as in a Gothic novel: suffering from a severe fever, he lay in a hotel room. That terrible night was a rainy one, one of those that rarely happen in Egypt. In addition, a lightning strike knocked out the transformer in the middle of the night and the lights went out in the hotel…

If we refer to the reports of journalists, then some details of the tragedies caused by the "curse of the pharaohs" look spectacular: at the time of Carnavon's death, the lights suddenly went out for several days in all of Cairo, and in the English family estate of the lord, his beloved fox terrier howled and collapsed dead. It was claimed that of those who were present at the opening of the tomb of Tutankhamen, most soon died. Overtook the death of two pathologists who performed the autopsy of the mummy. Thanks to the publication in the press of the events described, the mummies of the pharaohs and their tombs began to be considered a source of mortal danger.

On this occasion, journalist Helga Lippert wrote: “The death of Carnavon marked the beginning of a whole series of mysterious and unexpected deaths. Five more people die quite suddenly during the year. All of them visited the tomb of Tutankhamun. tomb, English professor of literature La Fleur, specialist in conservation Mace, and Carter's secretary Richard Befil.So the not unfounded legend of the "curse of the pharaohs" was born. Mace, who moved the last stone that blocked the entrance to the main chamber, died in the same hotel that and Carnarvon. The cause of death could not be established: he began to complain of unusual fatigue, frequent bouts of weakness, apathy and melancholy. All this ended in a rapid loss of consciousness and sudden death. " But the series of deaths does not end there...

The American George Jay-Gold, an old friend of Lord Carnarvon, a multimillionaire and a great lover of archeology, closely followed all the affairs of the expedition: many of the finds discovered there were in his hands. Suddenly he was overwhelmed by a sudden chill. The following day, by evening, the millionaire died. And again, the doctors helplessly shrugged their hands ...

In a matter of years, 22 people died, one way or another related to the Egyptian pyramids and mummies of the pharaohs. I would like to note one thing: every time the death was fleeting and sudden. The death overtook archaeologists and doctors, historians and linguists known in those years, who were involved in the study of the tombs.

Lady Carnarvon died in 1929. Rumors spread around the world about the current sinister curse of Tutankhamen. Meanwhile, death found more and more victims ...

As soon as the rumor about the death of Batell (one of the members of the expedition) reached London from Cairo, his father, Lord Wesbury, jumped out of the window of the 7th floor of the hotel. When the corpse of a suicide was being transported to the cemetery, a hearse (it is clear how fast this carriage is moving) crushed a child who was playing in the street to death. The examination showed that the driver simply could not help but notice him ...

It is known that almost all researchers who dealt with mummies later suffered from a clouding of their mind, raved in reality, fell into prostration, lost their legal capacity, etc.

There are explanations for the deaths. One of them is as follows. Most likely, the food that was left to the mummies rotted, moldy, gradually poisoning its habitat. The archaeologists who entered were inhaling mold spores and dying from lung diseases. It is known that most of the victims before visiting the tombs suffered from pulmonary ailments, and fungi fatally damaged the weakened body. But this does not explain all cases of sudden death.

In fairness, it should be noted that the main "culprit" of disturbing the peace of the pharaoh, Howard Carter, safely lived to 67 years!

And here is another interesting and significant fact. There is evidence that shortly before the fatal collision of the Titanic with an iceberg, the experienced captain of the ship Edward Smith behaved somehow strangely: for some unknown reason, the set course was not maintained, the ship was moving at an increased speed, after the collision the signal for help was sent with an unacceptable delay, in addition, it was too late for the passengers and the crew to be informed of the need to escape.

And by the way, on the Titanic, Lord Canterville was transporting the perfectly preserved mummy of an Egyptian soothsayer from the time of Pharaoh Amenhotep IV, Amenophis IV.

He transported the mummy from England to America in a wooden box, placed not in the hold, but, due to the special value of the cargo, near the captain's bridge.

The mummy was removed from the tomb, over which stood a small temple. Sacred amulets guarded her peace. They accompanied the mummy on her transatlantic journey. Under her head rested the image of Osiris with the inscription: "Wake up from your swoon in which you are, and one glance of your eyes will triumph over any intrigues against you." In front of the mummy's eyes were "magic" gems.

Maybe Lord Canterville suggested that the first person on the ship look at the mummy of the priestess-soothsayer, which influenced the behavior of the captain and subsequently led to a collision with an iceberg? Whatever it was, but there was a spell of magicians, and the Titanic disaster occurred.

Here is such a coincidence.

However, the tragic events do not stop in our time. Thus, on December 4, 1993, the Associated Press reported that the tomb of Pharaoh Peteti and his wife had been opened in Giza. Her age is 4600 years. An inscription was opened there: "The great goddess Hathor will punish twice anyone who dares to desecrate this grave." Excavation leader Zaki Hawass suddenly suffered a heart attack that almost cost him his life. The earthquake destroyed the house of his fellow archaeologist. Then the photographer got hurt. Finally, the train carrying the recovered relics derailed.

Recently, a group of physicists Luis Alvarez from the University of Los Angeles tried to study the Great Pyramid using cosmic rays. However, the pictures were inadequate. Dr. Arm Gohed said: "Either the geometry of the pyramid introduces significant interference, or some force violates the laws of science when working inside the pyramid."

Probably, in the tomb of the pharaohs there were spells - psycho-energy clots sent by the priests by an effort of will into objects-teraphs. Such teraphs are able to retain spells for many millennia. But for what purpose? For what?

The famous Carlos Castaneda, who was taught by two Mexican yogis Don Juan Matus and Don Genaro Flores, writes in his book "The Gift of the Eagle" that in the city of Tulu, the province of Hidalgo in Mexico (the ancient epicenter of the Toltec empire), he was struck by an ensemble of pyramids of four colossal columnar figures (5 m high and 1 m across), called "Atlantes", standing on the flat roof of the pyramid. Six meters behind these figures was a row of 4 basalt columns.

The figures represent women - 4 angles, 4 winds, 4 directions of the pyramid - as centers of stability and order. The figures of women are the foundation and base of the pyramid. The pyramid itself is a man supported by his women and raised them to the highest point of the pyramid.

“The Atlanteans were clairvoyants,” Castaneda writes further, “these figures represent the order of the second attention brought forward. That is why they are so frightening and mysterious. They are creatures of war, but not destruction. And the row of rectangular columns located behind represents the order of the first attention. They are stalkers. They are covered with inscriptions, they are very peaceful and wise."

One particular pyramid at Tula was the second attention guide. She was looted and destroyed. Some pyramids were not dwellings, but places where warriors practiced dreaming and second attention. All their actions are captured in drawings and inscriptions. Then came the warriors of the third attention, who disapproved of everything that the pyramid magicians had done with their second attention, and they destroyed the pyramid and everything that was in it.

If the first attention embraces the consciousness of the physical body, the second one perceives our luminous cocoon. The third attention is immeasurable consciousness, which includes aspects of the physical and luminous bodies. The second attention is the battlefield of warriors as a training ground for reaching the third attention. The third attention is a burst of energy.

“Pyramids are harmful especially for unprotected and formless warriors like us,” K. Castaneda writes further, “there is nothing more dangerous than an evil fixation of the second attention. When warriors learn to focus on the weak side of the second attention, nothing can stand in their way. They become hunters of humans, vampires, even if they are already dead, they can reach their prey through time, as if they were present here and now, so we become a prey when we enter one of these second attention pyramid traps.

…We can take one trip to the pyramids. On the second visit, we will feel an incomprehensible sadness, like a cold breeze that makes us lethargic and tired. Such fatigue will very soon turn into bad luck. After a while, we will become carriers of misfortune. All sorts of troubles will haunt us (which happened in the 20th century). Our failures are due to willful visits to these ruined pyramids."

Don Juan Matus emphasized to Castaneda that all the historical ruins in Mexico, especially the pyramids, are harmful to the uninitiated modern man. He described the pyramids as creatures that are foreign to the expression of our thoughts and actions. Every detail, every pattern in the pyramids was a calculated effort to express those aspects of attention that are now alien and incomprehensible to us. Everything that there was an object of almighty attraction, for us, unprepared, has a harmful potential.

Some secrets of the Egyptian pyramids

However, the Egyptian pyramids were not only famous for their terrible curses.

For a long time, Egyptologists have been arguing about what the location of the pyramids relative to each other means, why their faces clearly indicate the cardinal points and what the pyramids themselves symbolize.

Not so long ago, it was suggested that in the so-called heliocentric complex, the heliocentric position of the three planets of the solar system was fixed: the pyramid of Cheops corresponds to Venus, Khafre - Earth, Mykerin - Mars.

Scientists suggest that the Gisev complex recorded the position of the planets in their orbits, which was actually observed at some specific moment in the past.

But in order to determine in what time period the planets were in such a position, which is displayed in the Gisev complex, it should be taken into account that the orbits of the planets, exerting a perturbing effect on each other, can deform over time.

Russian scientists Sh. G. Sharaf and M. A. Budnikova have developed a technique by which it is possible to calculate the location of the planets and their orbits, taking into account deformation.

Thus, scientists were able to determine that the large pyramids show how the Earth, Mars and Venus were located in their orbits in 10532 BC. e. The date was even set - September 22.

On this day, the Earth was strictly between the Sun and the constellation Leo. The Egyptians came up with this name for the constellation, so it would be logical to assume that the Sphinx lion statue is designed to focus the observer's attention on this particular constellation. Since the statue faces east, and the Sun rises strictly in the east only on the day of the equinox, we can conclude: the Sphinx is nothing more than a time indicator for a specific date - September 22, 10532 BC.

It has been established that the approximate age of the Gizev complex is 4–5 thousand years. Then the question arises: how could the Egyptians know the exact location of the planets 12.5 thousand years ago?

Considering that to determine the heliocentric parameters of Venus, Earth and Mars, measuring instruments are required that are technically much superior to the ancient Egyptian ones, then the conclusion suggests itself - either we greatly underestimate the level of development of astronomy in Ancient Egypt (which is unlikely), or the knowledge necessary to to encrypt the connection of the planets in the location of the pyramids, belonged to non-Egyptians.

Not so long ago, scientists using echo sounders determined that the processed stone of the Sphinx sculpture is much older than the blocks of the pyramids. Other studies have revealed signs of erosion from a powerful stream of water at the base of the statue. British geophysicists estimate the age of erosion at 10–12 millennia. This confirms the theory that the Gisevo complex was built twice.

Then the question arises: who and when built the Gisevo complex? Scientists have been thinking about this issue for a very long time and still have not come to a consensus. There are several versions of the appearance of the pyramids. Let's take one of them.

About 12.5 thousand years ago, an unknown civilization erected a complex of pyramids, thus encrypting the connection of the three planets of the solar system. The date indicator of the given location of these planets was the Sphinx. Later, water gushed out from somewhere with great force, which destroyed the pyramids. The flow of water did not damage only the Sphinx, since it was hollowed out of a monolithic rock, and possibly covered with sand.

Approximately 8000 years later, during the reign of the pharaohs of the fourth dynasty, the pyramids were restored. Perhaps at the same time the appearance of the Sphinx was somewhat changed. Scientists believe that initially he depicted a simple lion, and a human head (the head of Pharaoh Khafre) was attached to him at about the same time when the pyramids were being restored.

But, if the pyramids were restored according to the original plan, then the technical documentation should have been preserved. According to one of the legends, it really was preserved in the secret chambers of the sanctuary of the god of wisdom Thoth. Cheops somehow managed to find these documents and, using them, ordered the restoration of the pyramids, which began to be used as tombs for the pharaohs.

Presumably, the site of the sanctuary of Thoth is located in the hidden zone of the pyramid field (Fig. 27). The exact coordinates of this place can be obtained by making a right triangle, one of the legs of which is a segment connecting the pyramids of Cheops and Khafre, and the other two are a conditional continuation of the faces of the pyramids.

Rice. 27. Geodetic plan of the Gizev complex: 1 - pyramid of Cheops (corresponding to Venus); 2 - Khafre's pyramid ("Earth"); 3 - the pyramid of Mikerin ("Mars"); C - center. A geometric pattern formed by three vectors creates an astronomical plan figure

The accuracy of the coordinates of the Center depends entirely on the geometry, which is why the exact orientation of each pyramid to the parts of the world was needed, which still amazes researchers to this day.

Then it turns out that the Sphinx also looks not just to the east, but to the Center. This means that he is also the guardian of the entrance to the secret sanctuary of Thoth.

It is also worth mentioning such elements of the Gisev complex as satellite pyramids. Initially, it was believed that they were intended for the wives of the pharaohs, that is, Cheops and Mykerin had three wives each, and Khafre had one. But history knows only one wife of Cheops - Henutsen, there is no exact information about the families of the other monarchs.

There is an assumption that if the large pyramids symbolized major planets, then the satellite pyramids could correspond to their satellites.

In this case, it turns out that the Earth had one satellite, which is true, but Venus and Mars should have three of them. It is possible that Mars really had another satellite, which, due to certain circumstances, was thrown into the asteroid belt. But where did the entire satellite system of Venus go?

Another feature is that the tombs for the wives of Khafre and Mykerin are located south of the large pyramids, and the companion of the pyramid of Cheops is to the east. If you look at the small pyramids from the side of the Center (Fig. 28), it turns out that the satellites of the Earth and Mars are to the left of their planets, and the satellites of Venus are below it.

Rice. 28. Plan-scheme of the location of the pyramids, as viewed from the side of the Center: 1 - the pyramid of Menkaure (Mars); 2 - Khafre's pyramid (Earth); 3 - Pyramid of Cheops (Venus)

If we apply the grammar rules of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic writing, according to which the small signs located to the left of the main one indicate the present tense, and those located below it indicate the past, then we can see that 12.5 thousand years ago, Earth and Mars with their satellites were in the present, and Venus with its three satellites - in the past.

Based on this, it can be assumed that even before the construction of the pyramids, a global cosmic catastrophe occurred, as a result of which Venus significantly decreased in size, lost all its satellites, and even began to rotate in the opposite direction.

Scientists suggest that, at the same time, one of the satellites of Venus hit the Sun, which caused a powerful burst of solar activity, which caused the flood on Earth.

Yes, the ancient pyramids of the Egyptian pharaohs hide many more secrets that are waiting to be solved. Moreover, these secrets can be of the most unexpected properties.

No wonder the famous writer and pyramid explorer Andrew Thomas in his book "Shambhala - Oasis of Light" writes: "... When the Sphinx of Giza announces its warning, we must be ready for great events."

Guardians cultural heritage of disappeared civilizations will open a secret vault in Egypt and show the existence of highly developed science and technology in the distant past. On their television screens, viewers will see the stunning successes of an ancient civilization that existed for many millennia before us. The conclusion from this discovery will be clear: "You can bring the same destruction as these ancient peoples."

Easter Island statues

Easter Island is a very small piece of land in the Pacific Ocean. It was formed as a result of the eruption of several big volcanoes. In total, there are 70 volcanoes on the island, but none of them have erupted for 1300 years.

Easter Island is very much apart. It is located between Chile and Tahiti. For a long time it was uninhabited, and later a group of Polynesians, having come a long way, sailed to it in a canoe. After long months of travel, people were very happy to see the island at last. The tribe, which eventually became known as "Rapa Nui", landed on the shore and built unusual oblong houses. Unfortunately, in this moment little remains of these houses, as they were demolished by missionaries in the 19th century.

The first settlers on the island used palm trees, which grew in large numbers on the island, to build boats and houses. By 1550, the population of Rapa Nui reached 7000-9000 and divided into separate, independent tribes that settled in different parts of the island.

At some point, the different tribes did not have any common features. The only thing that united them was a very unusual occupation, which was as follows. The inhabitants of the island erected huge statues called Moai. Why they did this remains a mystery to this day. It is also not clear why the islanders erected such strange statues. The fact is that the image had angular features, an elongated face, thin lips and shifted eyebrows. It didn't look human.

The biggest mystery of the people of Rapa Nui - why was the creation of statues so intense? Moai were built from petrified lava. They were carved directly into the rock, and after appropriate preparation they broke off.

After the final stage of processing, Moai had to be moved to the chosen place and placed on a pedestal. It is clear that overcoming the long way was very difficult. A large number of abandoned statues lying in different places only confirms this fact. Sometimes the journey took 25 kilometers.

How the statues, weighing several tens of tons, moved, has not yet been clarified exactly. There are several versions of this.

The first two of them suggest the presence of some kind of device, such as special "sledges" or "rollers" of appropriate sizes. Another hypothesis is that Moai moved vertically, that is, in the way that heavy furniture is now manually moved in small shifts.

However, another assumption is put forward. It must have been invented by the indigenous inhabitants of the island, who claim that the Moai themselves went to the right place. Of course, this is nothing more than a legend, but it has some reason for its occurrence.

The construction of pedestals required no less effort and art than the creation of the statues themselves. It was required to make blocks, from which then lay down the pedestal. The most amazing thing is how tightly the blocks fit together.

Moai was built at an astounding pace. After some time, there were more than a thousand statues on the island. Different Moai belonged to different clans and formed long chains along the paths of Easter Island.

The population of Rapa Nui also increased, as well as their cultural level. It would seem that there are all prerequisites for further development However, at some point things changed.

The fact is that when the first settlers came to the island, it was covered with a paradise rainforest. The inhabitants considered its rich resources inexhaustible, but they were deeply mistaken. As a result of their vigorous activity, almost not a single tree remained on the island. People used the forest to build huts and boats, made fires and devices for moving around and raising the Moai. Soon the creation of Moai turned into a competition of sorts. Different tribes tried to create larger statues. Sometimes the Moai produced were impossible to budge. One unfinished statue was 35 m high!

Due to the disappearance of forests, the land began to collapse, as the already thin layer of soil was washed away by rains into the sea. Correspondingly, yields also decreased. A period of active destruction of the statues began, which was no less intense than their erection. Since they symbolized wealth, power and prosperity, they were dumped, their eyes were gouged out. In the place where the neck of the fallen statue should have landed, stones were placed so that the head would fall off when it fell.

Internecine wars began. As a result, a wave of cannibalism grew. Victory with varying degrees of success passed to one, then to another, then to the next tribe, and the winners ate the vanquished. Traces of cannibalism have been found in many places, including the cave of Ana Kai Tangata (translated as "where people are eaten"). Subsequently, cannibalism became a means of survival, since there was practically no food left. There were a large number of ruins on the island, the villages were destroyed. There was no forest left even to build boats and sail away. Yes, even if there was enough wood, there was no provisions to sail to the nearest island. Even conventional fishing has become very problematic.

Then a new cult arose and completed the construction of Moai. Through this cult, the remnants of the Rapa Nui tribe began to gather together. Just at that moment, when the islanders were at their most vulnerable, the missionaries arrived. It was not difficult for them to baptize local residents. The missionaries forbade Rapa Nui from tattooing bodies, wearing traditional clothes, and destroyed the Rongo-Rongo tables - the key to understanding the history of the tribe. Surprisingly, the people of the Rapa Nui tribe began to pray to the gods, hoping for the restoration of trees. But the gods did not answer. The last tree on the island was cut down by man, and this was a sign of the inevitable death of an ancient civilization. And so it happened.

According to atlantologists, today the statues of Easter Island remind us of the Lemurians. 550 giant colossus statues are today on this distant island surrounded by the ocean. The book of Genesis gives the answer as to who they were. "In those days, giants lived on Earth, powerful and revered people in ancient times ... and God said that they were guilty of the fact that the Earth was filled with violence, and therefore He doomed them to perish along with the Earth."

"The Day of Judgment miraculously bypassed mysterious island, where the mausoleum and the temple were located, in which powerful rulers and warriors with Caucasian features met with the spirits of the dead, writes in his book " Lost cities South America "American explorer of Atlantis and Lemuria G. Wilkins. This ominous island, getting on which you feel that the spirit of the ancient devil lives here, is known as Easter Island. It lies 2000 miles west of Tiahuanaco. The island is surrounded on all sides by high rocks, on the tops of which very knowledgeable ancient architects and engineers designed and erected a colossal platform of megaliths, superbly fitted to each other and strengthened without any binding mortar.The representatives of this mysterious race that built this amazing island mausoleum used, like the ancient Egyptians, the power slaves.

Stone platforms are surrounded by rocks on all sides. The builders erected tier after tier, terrace after terrace. On each tier, at a decent distance, huge human statues made of stone and frozen forever in contemptuous silence were installed with menacingly shifted eyebrows and directed their gaze into the depths of the island, but not towards the sea, where the metropolis of the great South American empire was located. Each sculpture has strange high red headdresses pulled down over its eyes. One sculpture, 30 feet high, is so huge that 30 English sailors in the time of Captain Cook could comfortably dine at noon, hiding in its cool shade.

Compressed lips and cold imperious contempt on the faces of these majestic colossi seem to stop attempts to penetrate inside the amphitheater. Behind the platform, built of huge blocks, the waves of the Pacific Ocean are raging, and the powerful howling of the wind merges into a sound like an organ.

Most of the 550 statues depicting warriors and rulers are missing legs. None of them look alike. There is no doubt that all the sculptures depict real people, not gods. Some of them have a benevolent and contemplative facial expression - these are philosophers or physicists, or maybe teachers or sages, all sculptures have a prominent chin and long ears.

This island is a mysterious likeness of a cemetery. Representatives of the Great Race never lived here, their empire - an island continent - lay far beyond the Pacific Ocean ...

Some kind of rail line led into the depths of the island, laid over inflated leather bags. Probably, huge headdresses made of red volcanic tuff were transported along this road. 4 magnificent stone pavements with human sculptures lead to the center of the island. The pavements lead to a large open square, where a multilateral and polygonal temple decorated with a dome rises on columns, each corner of which is crowned with a statue.

The symbol in the form of a circle, often crossed, was depicted on the backs of the heads and backs of the sculptures. He indicates that the race worshiped the Sun.

Fancy semi-pyramids with rounded tops are hidden behind the rocky platforms. In the caves and catacombs of the island, niches with human remains were found, and on the walls - frescoes and engravings depicting a creature with a cat's head, a curved human body and long thin arms. Scientists do not know this monster.

The stern, menacing look and coldly compressed lips of the stone colossi apparently meant something sinister and mysterious in occult rituals. In the crater of the island, a huge female sculpture was found, overturned face down. Most of the sculptures depict men with oval faces and a shortened upper lip.

The frescoes indicate that this nation sailed on three-masted ships and they were familiar with birds on four legs. Some of the statues have huge earlobes. How they moved huge stone blocks weighing many tons is a mystery. Ancient myths of many nations speak of giants.

So, the legend of the ancient Aztecs says that the land of Anaucac (Mexico City) before the Great Catastrophe was inhabited by giants, they tried to build a high pyramid. Eupolemius, the author of the lost history of the Assyrian Jews, says that ancient Babylon was founded by giants who escaped the flood, they built the famous tower of babel and then perished in the Great Catastrophe.

On our planet there is another stone reminder of the race of Lemurians and Atlanteans. IN Central Asia, in Afghanistan, halfway between Kabul and Bal, there is the city of Bamiyan. Near this city there are 5 colossal statues - symbols of human races on Earth. The largest - 52 m, the symbol of the First human race, depicts a man draped in something like a toga - an ethereal form devoid of flesh. The second statue, 36 m high, depicts the Second Race of the Earth - "then born".

The third statue, 18 m high, is the growth of the Lemurians of the Third Race of Humanity, "the race that fell and conceived the first physical race, born of father and mother." The last offspring of this race is depicted in the Easter Island statues. These are Lemurians 6 and 7.5 m tall in the era when Lemuria was flooded.

The remaining Afghan statues depict the Fourth Atlantean race and the Fifth modern race of humanity. These 5 colossus-statues belong to the creation of the hands of the Initiates of the Fourth Race, that is, the Atlanteans, who, after the sinking of their mainland, found refuge in the strongholds and on the peaks of the Central Asian mountain range. These statues illustrate the doctrine of the gradual evolution of 7 races on Earth.

The fifth root race, which now stands at the head of human evolution, originated from the fifth white sub-race of the Atlanteans, the primitive Semites. The most prominent families of this sub-race were singled out and settled around southern shores The Central Sea of ​​Asia long before the death of Atlantis.

Valley of Red Castles and Rose Arches Park

The Arizona Desert, which is located in the United States, is fraught with many absolutely amazing mysteries that scientists are not yet able to explain. The fact is that millions of years ago, as geologists established, there was a swamp or even a sea surrounded by volcanoes. scientific world one wonders how it turned into a beautiful park, each tree and stone of which is a masterpiece of harmony of form and color.

In this desert is the world-famous and completely unique Valley of the Red Castles. It is located at the intersection of the borders of four states: Utah, New Mexico, Arizona and Colorado. The unusualness of this place lies in the fact that the famous Grand Canyon, as well as a petrified forest and stone pink arches, absolutely amazing in their beauty and grandeur. It is possible that all these miracles were created by nature. However, the possibility that they were created by an ancient highly developed civilization is not excluded. But be that as it may, all these places have extremely high bioenergetics. Why? Probably due to the pyramidal shape of these structures and the presence of a large amount of quartz sand in this area.

If you look at the rocks of Arizona, then they will resemble spiers, then columns, then buildings (Fig. 29). The height of these structures reaches 300 meters or more. So Mount Mitchell and Merrick look like giant pyramidal tombstones.

And, for example, several mountains called "Three Sisters" are very reminiscent of the figures of women in monastic robes with their hands folded in prayer.

It should be noted that in the state of Wyoming there are bizarre rock formations no less impressive in their architecture and size, for example, the "Devil's Tower" 390 m high (Fig. 30).

Rice. thirty. "Devil's Tower"

American geologists put forward the following hypothesis about the emergence of these amazing "monuments": once, millions of years ago, the process of silt compaction began here seabed into shales and sandstone, from which these rocks subsequently formed.

However, this explanation does not provide exhaustive answers to the whole range of questions that arise when looking at these wonderful creations. For example, such. Why are all these structures pyramidal in shape? Why were several pyramidal castles very similar to each other formed?

The fabulously beautiful and impregnable-mysterious petrified forest is located in the southern part of the Red Castles valley. Arizona's petrified tree trunks are nestled among whitish sandstone mounds lined with multicolored silt, ash, and other rock deposits. The trees look like they are alive, but in fact their trunks are stone logs of crystalline quartz. Most of the trees have a height of about 30 m, and the diameter of their trunks reaches 1.8 m. In addition, there are giant trees that are almost twice as tall and wider than their "brothers". However, most of them, unfortunately, for some reason split. Particularly surprising is the fact that part of the trees consists of semi-precious stones: agate, onyx, jasper, amethyst, carnelian. There are 5 places in the Arizona Petrified Forest with a predominance of a strictly defined mineral color: Rainbow Forest, Crystal Forest, Jasper Forest, Blue Mountain, and Agate House. In addition, there is the Agate Bridge. If these are not creations of nature, then who and when created them?

Representatives of traditional science believe that millions of years ago, tall coniferous trees grew on the territory of this desert, which over time began to be covered with layers of sedimentary rocks. At the same time, quartz from volcanic ash also crystallized in the wood. However, this version does not answer the question: why did this process take place?

In addition to these wonderful "monuments", near Navajo Mountain, which is located in the Colorado River Valley, there is another mysterious and beautiful structure - the "Rainbow of Stone", which is an arched bridge made of pink sandstone. The length of the Rainbow Bridge is 94 m, and the height from the base to the very high point- 88 m. This is much higher than the Ivan the Great Bell Tower in the Kremlin! It connects the slopes of the canyon, 85 m wide. Soaring from the cliff, a giant arch flies over the narrow ribbon of Bridge Creek. This arch looks dark purple on a clear sunny day, and at sunset it has distinct reddish-brown streaks.

In addition, there are several hundred more such arches in Utah. Yes, in national park, 300 km from the Rainbow Bridge there are 200 arches! They are also composed of pink sandstone. It should be noted that there are no such arches anywhere on our planet.

In addition, in the Arizona desert there are also giant balls that are kept only on one point of the base, and they can be shaken and they do not fall.

For example, how does this block (Fig. 31) rest on a narrow stem of the base and not fall? Probably, some law of symmetry or gravity is involved here, which is not known to our civilization.

Rice. 31. Stone block in the Arizona desert

Again, the question arises: who created these unique "monuments"? If the wind did it, then these would not be arches, but rocks chaotic in shape. Geologists have determined that the course of the Bridge Creek has tectonic origin. But to create and carefully polish such a magnificent arch, most likely, the ancient people of a bygone civilization that once flourished in Arizona could. Indeed, if you look closely at this amazing structure, then on the one hand the Rainbow Bridge is supported by a block-column, and on the other hand, the span of the arch is carefully polished. It is also amazing how these beautiful forms have survived to this day, experiencing over the centuries the destructive effect of cold, heat and the influence of winds.

The Lost Temple

According to the well-known prophet in the West, Edgar Cayce, a village located in western Siberia may well play the role of a new Noah's Ark and become the center of the revival of civilization in the event of a global catastrophe.

However, you should not think that, having arrived in Okunevo, you can immediately see a miracle. Nothing like this: an ordinary Siberian village, located on the steep bank of the Tara River.

Archaeological work has been carried out here since the thirties: Omsk scientists discovered ancient burial grounds and many objects from ancient eras in Okunevo. All data has long been included in a solid scientific work "The complex of archaeological sites on the Tatar ridge near the village of Okunevo", in which, in particular, there are the following lines: "... on the "fortification" there probably existed a cult place."

One can understand scientists who, with a lack of facts, prefer to use the words “possibly”, “probably”, and the Indian saint and seer Sathya Sai Baba is completely sure that earlier, even before the existence of a cult place, there was a majestic temple of the god Hanuman, the patron saint of monkeys, and that it is here that material evidence confirming this will be discovered in the near future.

As it turned out, the old-timers of Okunevo can tell a lot of interesting things about the unusual phenomena taking place in the village. These are frequent observations of UFO flights, and mysterious glows, when multi-colored rays rush into the night sky, and multi-meter pits of unknown origin, located almost near the village of Porechye, which lies not far from the village, and much, much more.

In 1958, being near the village, two girls, eight-year-old Lyuda and five-year-old Nina Pastushenko, on a sunny summer day, became eyewitnesses of an inexplicable phenomenon: a powerful stream of light rushed from the earth into the sky. In 1963, on the steep bank of the Tara, Okunev children found two stone slabs measuring 60 x 100 x 20 cm, which were polished to a mirror finish. The villagers immediately reported the discovery to the USSR Academy of Sciences, but there was no response and people decided to find another use for the plates. In order to use them as oppression for sourdough cucumbers, mushrooms and cabbage, they had to be first split. But it turned out to be not so easy: the finds had incredible strength, so they had to be heated for a long time on the forge.

Vladyka Theodosius from the Omsk diocese also believed in the fact of the existence of a holy place near Okunevo, personally erected and consecrated a two-meter Orthodox cross here. Therefore, there are always many believers who are successfully healed.

Mysterious lakes

Here it is appropriate to recall the old legend about the Okunevsky Shaitan Lake, which seems to be connected by an underground river with two other lakes - Linev and Danilov. There is an opinion that these lakes were formed several thousand years ago as a result of the fall of fragments of a large meteorite to the Earth. The water in these lakes is really unusual: it is very transparent and does not deteriorate for many years. And it also has healing properties, so every summer hundreds of people are treated on Danilovo Lake and with the help of this natural medicine they get rid of psoriasis, thyroid diseases and many other “sores”.

Having explored the miracle lake, Novosibirsk scientists say that if people knew the true healing power of its water, then the lake would most likely cease to exist, since it would have been scooped out to the bottom along with mud. Often, people who are near this reservoir see something: either translucent figures hanging in the air, or a girlish round dance, or riders rushing over the water.

It is worth mentioning the fact that all three lakes and one more, Indovo, are located on the same line and at approximately the same distance from each other. Lake Berkul is located at a right angle from Indovo. This is the first version of the letter "G". At the same angle from Linevo, there is another mysterious Lake Potaennye, about which it was said from above that it lies in full view of everyone, but no one notices this.

But the most surprising thing is that here you can see a connection with the fairy tale "Humpbacked Horse". If you successively swim in each of the lakes, then you can leave the last fifth one rejuvenated and healthy. It is known that Pyotr Ershov, who created the brilliant fairy tale, then lived in Omsk, so it is quite possible that he heard some local legends and traditions. The author created his fairy tale at the age of nineteen, works written at a more mature age are practically not known to a wide range of readers. Therefore, it can be assumed that the fairy tale itself was perceived by Petya Ershov from the same Information Field of the Earth.

It turned out that even photographs of lakes Linevo and Danilovo have healing power.

All the same soothsayer Olga Gurbanovich claims that Shaitan Lake is a kind of counterbalance to the already mentioned lakes, it is located on the border between them and the temple. The mystery of this area will be revealed if people find all five lakes, the temple and the "key" to this lake.

The secret of the temple

The well-known clairvoyant Olga Gurbanovich from the Information Field of the Earth received interesting information about the supposedly existing temple. The psychic claims that such a temple actually existed. It was erected by people who inhabit this area and believed in their God, and they were helped by alien beings who could take on any form, who still live among people and have a certain energy zone.

The temple had seven domes, each of which had a specific purpose. An octagonal crystal about a meter high was the talisman of a divine structure. He possessed extraordinary beauty and was of great scientific value for earthlings. Perhaps it still exists and needs to be found. The seer Sathya Sai Baba, already known to us, was the high priest of this temple during its existence.

It should be mentioned that for the first time another Indian saint spoke about the temple - Babaji, who claimed that in Siberia there is a place associated with Hanuman (the god and king of monkeys), and it is very important for Russia to find it. The question naturally arises: "How are Sai Baba and Babaji related?" It turns out that these are two aspects of the same highly spiritual essence. At the same time, Sai Baba is its creative part, and Babaji is its destructive part. In the same way, in the ancient Indian myths, the god Shiva is represented, called the ancient Hyperborean-Aryans, who inhabited the territory of present-day Russia, Siwa.

Unfortunately, the story ended sadly. Another people, worshiping other gods and speaking a different dialect, decided to take possession of the jewel in the temple and destroy the Gentiles. Then the builders of the temple closed all the gates, doors and windows, fleeing from the attackers. When it was time to go outside, people realized that the temple had sunk into the ground along with them. Of course, everyone died, and the temple has not yet been found.

Of course, at first glance, everything may seem like a fairy tale, but it is worth noting that it was thanks to the tale of the great blind man Homer that the amateur archaeologist Schliemann discovered Troy. And the famous philosopher A. Losev argued that any science is impossible without mythology, since the initial intuitions are drawn from the latter.

Another recognized clairvoyant, Galina Alekseevna Karpova, is sure that the temple still exists, but in the astral plane. That is, it is not just a temple, but a kind of book of God, where the eternal dance of the energies of destruction and creation takes place. It is called the Satra Temple. It is of great importance for people:

firstly, it is thanks to him that the five above-mentioned lakes have healing power;

secondly, if it is found, then the energy accumulated over many centuries will cover the whole of Western Siberia like a shield;

thirdly, with the help of the Crystal located in the temple, people will be able to make contact with other inhabited planets and worlds.

What explains the incredible events? It can be assumed that not far from Okunevo, two hundred and fifty kilometers north of Omsk, there is a powerful energy center located right on the banks of the Tara, by the way, the name of the river is translated from Sanskrit as a savior. It is possible that many years ago, during the existence of the temple of the great healer Hanuman, Tara had greater power and fullness. Its ancient banks-ridges have survived to this day. In Russia, only one more similar energy center can be distinguished - in the ancient city of Arkaim, which was located in the south of the Urals.

There is a third such center in the United States, located in Arizona, between the city of Phoenix and the Grand Canyon's great rift. The Hopi tribe is sure that this place is the concentration of magical power. Now here is a beautiful city Sedona, inhabited by adherents of the New Age. They believe that spirits are always nearby and right above Sedona in the astral world is their invisible city that gives energy to people.

Probably worth a little closer acquaintance with the adherents of the New Age. This movement is spreading across the globe and its participants live in anticipation of significant catastrophic changes, which, in their opinion, should happen in the late nineties of the twentieth century. Earthquakes and tsunamis will destroy many areas such as California, most of England, Japan, Holland and almost all of the Hawaiian Islands.

These prophecies fully coincide with the predictions of Edgar Cayce, who is considered the greatest prophet in the West. An ordinary teacher and photographer healed several tens of thousands of people in his short life. His abilities were studied for a long time by scientists who could not explain how a person who did not understand medicine in the treatment of patients surpassed the most famous medical luminaries. Casey gave out his recommendations while in a deep trance, sometimes in languages ​​that he did not know in a conscious state. He talked about the past and predicted the future, and he was never wrong.

According to Casey's prophecies, all the expected catastrophes will practically not affect Russia, and even more so Western Siberia. That is, the Okunev energy center, located almost in the center of Western Siberia, can become a kind of Noah's Ark. The revival of civilization after natural disasters will begin from here. The famous clairvoyant Vanga also warned people about possible strong shocks that would lead to a change in people's consciousness.

Many prophets believe that main reason natural shocks are the people themselves. Even scientists admit that our planet is a living and even quite intelligent being. And human aggressiveness in thoughts and actions simply irritates the Earth, which results in various natural disasters.

The world around us

Probably, it is not worth reminding once again that the world around us is much more complex and multifaceted than we think about it. Even the ancient philosopher Plato argued that thoughts rule the world. A person who realizes all the responsibility for the thoughts he produces would become like God, since they are material, all-penetrating, instantaneous, they have a unique power, the ability to create and destroy.

Fortunately, such islands of spirituality as Arkaim, Sedona and Okunevo still remained on Earth, where for many centuries the highly spiritual thought of our ancestors was concentrated. It is the thoughts of people that underlie such energy centers - a kind of “gateway” to the world of subtle energies that children, animals and psychics, and sometimes film, are able to perceive.

It is not for nothing that ascetics constantly travel to Okunevo, they are simply necessary for the existence of these islands, since they are the engines of true culture, a living example that convinces that vices are victorious, that a righteous life is available to mere mortals and is quite feasible here, under ordinary circumstances. Self-improvement helps the ascetic to discover in himself hitherto unknown forces: clairvoyance, straight-knowledge, healing. It should be noted that the beneficial effect of the ascetic extends over vast distances.

People have different attitudes towards psychics, you can not believe them, but the facts speak for themselves. Back in 1981, Vanga mentioned new diseases that would take the lives of a thousand people. Many were skeptical about this warning, but soon AIDS, Ebola, the "mad cow effect" really appeared. Psychics see salvation in a change in human consciousness: people must get rid of enmity, hatred, envy and treat each other with kindness and love. Only under this condition will it be possible to live in one beautiful world.

Nazca drawings

On the abandoned plain of the Peruvian coast is the province of Nazca. It is a sandy desert covered with pebbles. If gravel is removed from the surface of the earth, then light lines will be visible on the soil under it. These lines can also be formed by rocks projecting out of the plain.

Such lines are observed not only in Peru, but also in other countries, but only the Nazca drawings stand out for their characteristics: size, impressive shape, mystery ... That is why they have become the most famous.

There are two types of Nazca drawings. The first contains images of various creatures and things, the second of geometric shapes. According to the principles of making drawings, it is impossible to understand what people they belong to.

They cannot be attributed to any Indian culture. If we take into account the enormous amount of work to create a complex of Nazca figures, it becomes clear that it would be impossible to draw drawings by hand. Moreover, the placement of the lines indicates that their creation required very long-term work - centuries and even millennia.

In order for readers to form their impression of the Nazca drawings, it is necessary to describe them a little. Geometric figures are triangular and trapezoidal areas, the width of which reaches 70 m, the straightness of all contours is maintained even on rough terrain. All drawings are made by one continuous line, nowhere closing and not crossing itself. The lines are clearly defined.

The most famous Nazca drawings are:

Spider about 46 m long (Fig. 32);

Monkey 55 m long (Fig. 33);

Bird Guano 280 m long;

Lizard 180 m long;

Hummingbird 50 m long (Fig. 34);

Pelican 285 m long.

In addition, there are drawings of plants, strange figures resembling disproportionately built people or animals. There are images of objects made by man. All drawings, no matter what they depict, have pronounced inputs. Perhaps these entrances were used by people as trails. The inputs are two parallel lines.

Rice. 33. Monkey

How the Nazca drawings were made, who their author was and, most importantly, for what purpose they were created, remains a mystery. Many tend to consider images as the result of the activity of the Mind unknown to us. The energy, supposedly inexplicable from the point of view of science, imprinted meaningful images on the surface of the soil.

However, there are people who are of the opinion that the Nazca drawings are a reflection of UFO activity. The fact is that the images are not distorted even on the complex contour of the figures, which means that they were projected from a bird's eye view. A clear observance of proportions and the continuity of lines testify in favor of an explanation associated with UFOs.

In addition, there is an opinion that the Nazca drawings represent giant map Lands for spaceships and aircraft. This map is made in the most ancient projection, built not along parallels and meridians, but according to the distances of the desired points from the starting point. In addition, according to this map, one can allegedly form impressions of the most important centers ancient civilizations- Atlantis and Lemuria.

Where was Atlantis?

About legends

For about two centuries, people have been looking for answers to questions about Atlantis. The most important of these: did this continent really exist? His unsuccessful searches were carried out in the Atlantic, in the Pacific, Indian, Arctic oceans. The fact that they did not bring results excited the human imagination and contributed in no small measure to the emergence of many legends about Atlantis. The inhabitants of the Pacific Islands have many legends about sunken countries. In Hawaii, this country is the continent of the solar network of the god Kane; in Polynesia - the Great Land; on Easter Island - the island of Motu-Mario-Khiva. In the middle of the 19th century, the French preacher J. A. Morenhut concluded that the inhabitants of the islands were eyewitnesses of the catastrophe, as a result of which a huge continent called Pacifidou sank in the Pacific Ocean.

The legends of ancient India tell about the continent of Lemuria, sunk at the bottom indian ocean. This land can rightly be called the cradle of human culture. To the south of modern India, there was the land of Tamalaham, where a people with a highly developed culture lived. There are legends about big island in the Indian Ocean (Fig. 35). Medieval Arab historians wrote about landmasses in the southern Indian Ocean. There was an assumption about the existence in the distant past of the unknown South Earth, which occupies a very vast space. Its population was 50 million people, and its location was in the southern latitudes of the Indian, Pacific and Atlantic oceans.

Rice. 35. Ancient map depicting the legendary Atlantis

All ancient civilizations have legends about enlighteners who brought science and culture to peoples. Different peoples have their own heroes, but the fact that they exist is undoubtedly a common feature of the most ancient civilizations.

Data

However, the existence of a large number of legends and fairy tales is not yet proof that ancient civilizations had a common basis. But there are facts, and it is about them that we will now tell.

Scientists say that the ancient civilizations - Egypt, Mesopotamia, Crete, Greece, India, China - they all came from "the same ancestor", so to speak. In other words, all the listed civilizations have a common basis. This explains their similarity in mythology, as well as similar rituals.

The history of the emergence of Central and South America is shrouded in a veil of secrecy. The feeling that these civilizations appeared all at once and from nowhere does not go away with humanity over time, and the lack of reasonable refutation of this only strengthens faith in the supernatural.

There is an assumption that the ancient civilizations of America and East Asia were closely related. This only confirms the assumption made that there was an original civilization from which the others descended. It is possible that the lost Atlantis was just that.

From all the above, the conclusion suggests itself: there are many inexplicable coincidences and facts. Here is the fact that all ancient civilizations arose at about the same time, and the suddenness of their appearance, and the lack of information about the enlighteners who brought culture and science, similarities in rituals and knowledge.

A special place in the scientific knowledge of the inhabitants of ancient civilizations is occupied by astronomy and geography. This is confirmed by the fact that many different ancient maps have been found.

catastrophes

According to legend, the catastrophe that resulted in the death of the first civilization occurred about 12 thousand years ago. Indeed, there are traces confirming this fact.

High in the mountains there is a cave called Shender. It was found that for the first time people settled on it more than 100 thousand years ago. It has also been observed that traces confirming human habitation disappear completely in deposits corresponding to the 10th millennium BC.

There is an assumption that at the same time begins a sharp decline the population of the entire planet. If we take into account that at an altitude of about 6000 m in the Cordillera, under a thick layer of ice, the remains of settlements were found, then the conclusion suggests itself.

Most likely, a catastrophe occurred in the 10th millennium BC. It was accompanied by floods and earthquakes of enormous magnitude and strength, the rise and fall of land areas, and the release of huge amounts of water vapor into the atmosphere.

However, for 12 thousand years, the fragments of Atlantis could not disappear without a trace. About where exactly they should be looked for, there are many assumptions.

So, many believe that the fragments of Atlantis are hidden under the ice of Antarctica. There is a version that the sunken Atlantis was located on the site of modern Antarctica. Moreover, adherents of this theory are convinced that the climate in ancient times was significantly different from the present - it was much warmer. The change in temperature data occurred from the collision of the Earth with an unknown celestial body of gigantic size, which resulted in powerful earthquakes, floods and showers due to the displacement of the earth's axis. As a result of natural disasters, the death of Atlantis occurred.

As for the comparison of the described theory with information that came from antiquity, the described theory is fully consistent with the legends. Atlantis could well be located on three continents at once.

The modern climate of Antarctica is incredibly harsh. In summer, the temperature drops to 30-50 degrees. From below zero, and in winter - even lower. Very strong winds and a thick layer of ice are also far from rare. It is clear that such a climate is the least suitable for life. However, as already mentioned, those who adhere to the described theory believe that relatively recently the climate of Antarctica was completely different, much warmer. He was very conducive to life.

If we assume that about 20 thousand years ago (that is, before the rotation of the earth's axis), the geographical poles really were in a different place, then a natural question arises: where exactly was it? Studies show that not so long ago the north magnetic pole was located in the east of Asia.

True, the magnetic axis does not coincide with the axis of rotation of the Earth, but the difference between them cannot be too large.

Let's assume that the North geographic pole is located in the center of Yakutia. What then? It turns out that in this case, Antarctica moves to warmer latitudes, respectively, the climate in it changes significantly, and it becomes quite suitable for life. Its outline will look like a triangular continent, the top of which faces south, as the ice sheet melts due to warming. The described view resembles the image on the found ancient maps moreover, the indicated position corresponds exactly to the legends of the inhabitants of the Pacific Islands.

With the accepted position of the poles, the most famous cradles of the most ancient civilizations - Central America, Mesopotamia, Hindustan, Egypt - all of them are in the middle latitudes. What does this mean? Literally the following: this means that they had approximately the same temperate climate, which more or less corresponds to the climate north coast displaced Antarctica. There is an assumption that after the catastrophe occurred, the inhabitants of the dying continent were resettled in previously prepared territories.

However, the question of the cause of the catastrophe remains unclear. Adherents of the theory described above believe that it is a giant comet that fell to earth. As a result of the fall, the earth's axis was shifted.

On the other hand, a meteorite impact is highly unlikely. Other explanations for axis shift are very varied. So, it is believed that this happened as a result of mountain building processes, the action of a giant tidal wave, or some other phenomenon. Be that as it may, one thing is clear: the displacement of the axis was accompanied by a redistribution of the masses of the earth's crust and water, which led to giant earthquakes, floods and downpours. By the way, such a theory is quite consistent with numerous legends that came from antiquity. What's next?

After the displacement of the earth's axis, the period of glaciation in Europe ceased. The northern ice bulk moved north, resulting in the formation of the Arctic Ocean. The southern ice block approached the south of Antarctica.

The inhabitants of the first civilization tried to adapt to the new conditions, but they soon became absolutely unbearable. Then the Arctic Atlanteans settled in the colonies, remaining in history as mysterious enlighteners who came from nowhere and brought with them a highly developed culture and legends about the lost continent.

Such a foldable-looking theory has not received universal recognition, and there is a reason for that. The fact is that the results of the analysis of the ice cover of Antarctica show that it was formed several million years ago. This fact is the main discrepancy with the described version.

However, there is an appropriate explanation for this as well. For example, many scientists believe that the glaciation of Antarctica ended no less than 8 thousand years ago.

This coincides with the time of the emergence of ancient civilizations. The surface layer of soil could well have been formed on ice as a result of winds and represent a special ice substance. Again, when the earth's axis shifted, the ice bulk shifted entirely, and then its age is quite scientifically explained. Thus, the theory that has been described is perhaps reliable.

Intervention of extraterrestrial civilizations

Indeed, it would be easiest to explain the origin of the Atlanteans with the help of fantastic assumptions. So, let's say that a long time ago, several tens of millennia ago, an unearthly spaceship crashed in close proximity to our planet. The structure of the body of the passengers of this ship did not correspond to the climatic conditions of the Earth, so they settled in Antarctica.

The local climate more or less suited their needs. The ice cover of the continent made it possible to create caves and tunnels on them, in which it was possible to maintain the desired temperature and atmosphere.

To perform "construction" work, the aliens used the labor of the natives. To do this, they taught them some knowledge. So there were people with a lot of unique knowledge in technical fields - priests. Thus, it is possible to explain the sudden appearance among the ancients of various sciences: mathematics, geography, astronomy, the emergence of writing in them, as well as practical skills.

With the help of fantastic theory, the emergence of human ideas about the gods can also be explained. So, the traditions of sacrifice could be introduced by aliens when they needed provisions and technical materials, in addition, they needed labor. It is quite possible that the aliens instructed the natives to build any structures for various purposes.

After the aliens did not remain on Earth due to death or resettlement, the Arctic system erected under their strict guidance began to collapse and soon ceased to exist. The priests settled around the planet and became the very educators, which have already been mentioned more than once.

This theory does not exclude the fact that there was still a displacement of the earth's axis. It could have occurred as a result of an explosion arranged by aliens on purpose to form an ice shell, which will be opened later when earthlings reach a certain level of development.

Edgar Cayce on Atlantis

Edgar Cayce is a great American clairvoyant, widely known in the 20th century. Books were written about him, articles were published in newspapers. All his predictions came true with amazing accuracy. They say that he not only could predict the future, but also see the past of all mankind.

The basis of his predictions was the assertion that modern humanity came out of Atlantis. In fact, a good third of Cayce's records of humanity are closely related to Atlantis.

Casey was sure that the key to Atlantis must be sought in Egyptian pyramids. According to his theory, copies of the documents of Atlantis, testifying to its history and civilization, were transferred by the Atlanteans to the Hall of Chronicles. This was the name of a small pyramid located between the right paw of the Sphinx and the Nile River.

Edgar Cayce believed that this pyramid contained the bodies of immigrants from Atlantis. He also predicted the date when the Hall of Chronicles would be discovered - approximately the year 2000. There they will find various decorations, tables, seals, tools and other items of ancient times.

Casey also predicted that in America, in the Yucatan, the Temple of the goddess Ishtar would be discovered, in which the annals of the Atlanteans are stored. Once upon a time, the Atlanteans arrived in the Yucatan by air and water transport.

The date of construction of the pyramid of Cheops, named by Cayce, fluctuates somewhere between 10490 and 10390 BC. Around the same time, the Sphinx was created. Moreover, Edgar Cayce even named the exact location of some information located in the Sphinx. This information was supposed to tell mankind about the period when great progress took place in Egypt due to the advent of the developed Atlanteans. According to Casey, the information must be in the cornerstone of the Sphinx's foot.

The information that the pyramid of Cheops carried covered, perhaps, the entire history of mankind, up to 1998 of our time. Cayce claimed that at the indicated time, the Great Messiah would appear on earth, who would come to fulfill the prophecies stored in the Hall of Records.

Cayce called the pyramid of Cheops the "Pyramid of Understanding". According to him, it was created on the basis of universal laws. The pyramid was created for a higher purpose than just burial, inside it there are mathematical and astronomical evidence that in 1998 the Earth will undergo a number of significant changes.

In the same year, a change of poles is possible. The appearance of the Messiah on Earth just causes the occurrence of changes. The pyramid also contains descriptions of these changes, however, they are all encrypted.

So, Casey predicted that humanity would have to open a secret Egyptian vault and prove existence in a civilization that existed millennia ago. And although no one can probably name the exact date of this, however, some conclusions can be drawn from the predictions, namely: modern humanity can bring the same destruction as the ancient Atlanteans. As for the location of Atlantis, Casey argued that it was located between the Gulf of Mexico on one side and the Mediterranean Sea on the other. He believed that the history of the lost civilization can be divided into three periods.

In his writings, he repeatedly mentions the period when there was an internecine struggle between the two groups of Atlanteans. One of the groups represented the light forces ("Children of the Law of the One"), the other - the dark ones ("Sons of Belial"). Part of Atlantis was destroyed as a result of the struggle between them.

In his reports about Atlantis, Casey wrote about the creation by the Atlanteans of a special stone - the Crystal. According to the descriptions, it is very similar to the crystal used in lasers. This stone had incredibly destructive power. The erroneous location of the Crystal at too high a height led to a second catastrophe, as a result of which Atlantis was divided into islands.

Cayce claimed that the instructions for how to create such a Crystal are located on Earth in three different places. One of these places he called the sunken Atlantis. Casey was sure that some of the temples on the lost continent had yet to be opened using special equipment. He wrote that it would take place off the coast of Florida, near what is now known as Bimini.

Power Crystal and Main Pyramid

According to the predictions of the same Edgar Cayce, the Atlanteans possessed forces that, merging with electricity and expanding gases, were capable of causing volcanic eruptions. References to energy-producing systems are found in the records of Bimini. Near Bahamas was the epicenter of the earthquake, which split the continent of Atlantis into five parts. After the second natural cataclysm, the Atlanteans moved to Africa and South America, as well as to the Pyrenees.

It was the representatives of this people who could, through a crystal with magnetic properties, concentrate solar energy. The stone was a large cylindrical crystal with many facets, the top of which captured solar energy and collected it in the middle of the cylinder.

It should be noted that several small stones of a similar shape were found in the Yucatan, but people, unfortunately, could not use them for their intended purpose.

At the bottom Atlantic Ocean near bermuda triangle the Great Atlantean Power Crystal still rests. Periodically, the Crystal is charged with energy, so ships and planes begin to disappear here from time to time.

highest achievement Atlantic civilization is a huge crystal created after these people were able to learn how to use solar energy with the help of small crystals. To find powerful quartz deposits capable of reflecting all the rays of the Sun and the Moon, he was helped by Teachers from the Cosmos. The Atlanteans removed a block of quartz and processed the edges with such unique precision that they reflected every ray that fell on them. The crystal was used around the clock by these people, of course, except on rainy days.

The first catastrophe that happened, reshaping the continents, prompted the Atlanteans to think about using the giant Crystal for military purposes. This people decided to capture China, located on the opposite side of the globe. The Atlanteans directed the rays of the crystal through the center of the Earth, as a result there was a strong explosion, and the entire Atlantis continent went to the bottom.

One cannot ignore the opinion of Raymond Bernard, initiated into the secret Teachings of the Rosicrucians, who in the book "The Invisible Empire" says that Atlantis was a continent with a highly developed civilization. Our modern technology and electronic means of communication are nothing compared to the Atlantic ones. The Atlanteans had a College of Wise Men, keepers of secret knowledge, which sat in the Main Pyramid of Atlantis. Only one single pyramid is an analogue of the Higher Pyramid of Atlantes, and then on a different scale - this is the Pyramid of Cheops.

The Atlanteans had knowledge about the mechanisms and power of some cosmic forces, in particular, terrestrial telluric currents. Skillful control of these currents led to the fact that almost all geological disasters were prevented. This role was played precisely by the pyramids, through which the entire Earth was a unique receiver of cosmic forces.

This legendary people received all the mentioned knowledge from other galaxies. And to this day there are Atlanteans among earthlings, whose Masters of Wisdom govern the humanity of the Earth and work in harmony with the Supreme Council of A ... (a name not disclosed by the Rosicrucians).

Next, we should return to the prophecies of Edgar Cayce, who in 1940 claimed that people would soon discover the flooded walls of Bimini and the Bahamas. In the same year, he predicted that either in 1968 or in 1976, the first island of Atlantis, Poseidonis, would appear above sea level.

The head of the French Rosicrucians, Master Velantsova, soon spoke about the same.

Surprisingly, but in fact, in 1970, the French diver Dmitry Ribikoff noticed geometrically regular bulks near the western coast of Bimini. He took magnificent aerial photographs and proved that the find was ancient walls, located at a depth of about 60 cm and a length of 7625 cm. These walls were built from large blocks of 1800 square cm.

In the same year, similar walls were discovered near the island of Andros.

All in the same 1940, in an oral conversation, E. Casey said that records of the systems by which the Atlanteans produced energy are located near Bimini in part of the temple. Unfortunately, these records have not yet been found, but the walls of Bimini have already been opened, that is, the amazing prophecy has partially come true.

According to Casey, 15,600 years ago, the first catastrophe of Atlantis occurred, dividing the continent into five islands, three of which were named Poseidonis, Aryan and Og, and 12,000 years ago, the second catastrophe.

There are also some disagreements in the predictions of various prophets, for example, E. Blavatsky, and the Sacred Teachings give other dates for the four catastrophes of Atlantis, the first of which happened about a million years ago, about a hundred thousand years after the "golden age" of the Atlanteans.
