Ancient city is unearthed by archaeologists in Egypt

[bogeyman]

Archaeologists in Egypt have unearthed what they describe as a city that dates back more than 7,000 years, containing houses, tools, pottery and huge graves.

It lies by the river Nile, close to the Temple of Seti the First in Abydos.

Experts say the size of the 15 newly discovered graves indicates the high social standing of those buried.

It is believed the city was home to important officials and tomb builders and would have flourished during early-era ancient Egyptian times.

We think we know our history, but time and again, we discover new cities and artifacts. Some are excepted by convention, others are not. So what has been lost forever?

This post uncovers a very interesting rabbits hole. Here are some more fantastically old submerged cities:

- Dwarka: "Mainstream scientists maintain that ancient Indian culture/civilization goes back some 4-5 thousand years. Yet the ruins below the Gulf of Cambay go back at least 9 thousand years, i.e. to the time when the area submerged under water."

- sunken pyramid city off Cuba: "Just over a decade ago, a team of explorers were working on an exploration and survey mission off the western coast of Cuba when their sonar equipment picked up a perplexing series of stone structures lying some 650 metres below the surface. "

- Japan's Yonaguni: " it was proposed that the Yonaguni Monument was built when the area was above sea level some 10,000 years ago. So could ‘Japan’s Atlantis’ be a remnant of a preglacial civilisation that was eventually inundated?"

- The ancient structures listed above are likely younger than underground cities which thought to have been submerged and then resurfaced. Megalithic structures point to civilizations dating back over possibly millions of years:

Great posts and info.

bogeyman the article says more than 5,000 years not 7?
or did I miss something.

but more than likley more than 7 ha!

I have no doubt that there was an earlier advanced civilization on Earth.
There is evidence here and there--maps found that were accurate showing features in land in distant countries that may have been taken from the air.
Planets that have only relatively recently been discovered were charted by the ancient Maya.

The knowledge of the cycle of Yugas (ages) in Indian history, a former golden age.
Flying saucers (not alien) detailed in ancient Indian text.

Molten stone on the remains of fortresses --(atomic weapons?)
The Bagavadgita talks of the war with terrifying weapons.

The Pyramids and particularly the Sphinx much older than current dating.

And on it goes.

Egypt: Archaeologists Discover 7,000-Year-Old City

Archaeologists in Egypt have discovered a city and cemetery–dating back more than 7,000 years to its First Dynasty–in the southern province of Sohag.

The discovery was made by a mission associated with the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities just 400 meters away from the temple of Seti I, an Egyptian pharaoh who reigned in the 13th century BCE, across the River Nile from the southern city of Luxor, the Egypt Independent reported.

The ministry said in a Wednesday statement reported by Reuters that the unearthed city could provide more information about Abydos, one of ancient Egypt’s oldest cities and which is thought to have served as the country’s capital towards the end of the predynastic period—which concluded around 3100 BCE—and during the first four dynasties, a period that ended around 2500 BCE.

The archaeological team discovered huts, pottery remains and iron tools, as well as 15 large graves. The city is thought to have been home to tomb builders and high-ranking officials.

The ministry said that the grave were larger than some royal graves in Abydos that date back to the First Dynasty, “which proves the importance of the people buried there and their high social standing.”

Does this mean we can put to bed the idea that the pyramids were burial chambers. :)

[greybeard]

Ewan--we and a lot of other people too, know that never ever was a mummy/body found in any of the Pyramids.
Unfortunately when your job and reputation lies in teaching that they were burial chambers---well enough said
Nassim Haramien did a very funny talk on the building of the Pyramids--no way could they have been built in the manner claimed by historians.
Nassim rubbished these claims.

To add for Ewan,

Part of the "support" among supposed "experts" (egyptologists) for it being a "burial chamber" was that a box was found in the King's chamber that was assumed to be a coffin. However, there was never ever any evidence of this presented and the granite, perfectly hollowed out box was not the appropriate size for anyone to have been rested in. No bodies have ever been found in "significant" pyramids. The evidence for them being a "tomb" is pretty much non-existent, yet somehow, in a field supposedly filled with educated people, this story persists as "historical fact". To me this is blatant evidence that the field of "Egyptology" itself is nothing more than a smokescreen set up by the rulers as part of their strategy to hide the true earth history. The fact that it hasn't beenput to bed yet means it has strong "artificial" support.

I see I'm going to have to stop making flippant remarks if they're not being perceived as such. :D

Keep making them I got that you were being flippant Ewan.

Here's Graham Hancocks take on the map showing Antarctica free of ice. I'ts not farfetched that there might have been an ancient civilisation there.http://www.exohuman.com/wordpress/2011/05/old-maps-show-ice-free-antarctica/

I assumed as much; consider the additional response was provided to those reading, "not in the know" :)

In viewing pictures of various places on the Earth, I find that there are blatantly obvious pyramids all over the place. I have read that pyramids circle the earth at 33 degrees. They may have served as an energy source, as rebalancing weights for a once damaged earth through passing celestial objects, weapons against objects and enemies entering Earth's atmosphere, as communication devises for earthlings and space communication, etc., etc.
They were built by a previous civilization going back into time too far to number, because I see them in the wreckage of convoluted areas of mountains giving evidence of vast upheavals of Earth. They exist on Mars, destroyed a very long time ago. Even ten thousand years does not cut it.

There is something else, the software in my head constructs human facial images reclining in jungles and mountain ranges, faces, some of extreme beauty. However, they come in many sizes. Those clear enough to get a measurement of the Iris or Head have given me measurements of between one-half mile to one mile in height. These are REAL GIANTS. I have concluded that the Earth, long before even the pyramids, harbored HUGE life forms, so that our Dinosaurs were their Lizards and tiny animals. There exists the possibility that either the lush condition of the planet and its atmosphere allowed huge life which became extinguished and over the years became smaller as the atmosphere and surface became less lush, OR the scientists of that day decided upon a SHRINKING program for the planet's life forms in order to accommodate growing numbers.

Book of Giants found with the dead Sea scrolls

Written by Noah's grandpa describing the Giant's dreams that the flood was coming...

Does that mean God never said hey Noah, build a boat...

This scroll says God spoke to Enoch about the coming flood...

Wasn't Enoch the one who modified humans and created the staff?

According to Sorcha, Kerry went to Antarctica to speak with an advanced race on our planet...

What is the possibility, they are the same race as Enoch...

Do they only show up for Nibiru's crossing?

I have long thought that Antarctica might actually be part of Atlantis. Has anybody read "Dweller on Two Planets?"
