    "Erich von Daniken provides a rollercoaster ride of information revealing some of the lesser known fact surrounding ancient Egyptian sites. Why did archaeologists seemingly go mad after entering newly discovered tombs, where do the secret passages go to and was the Egyptian pyramids once covered in water? All this and much more as Erich von Daniken provides some startling information"

    What a wonderful man Erich Von Daniken truly is, his entire adult life has been dedicated to revealing the truth, to providing information for you and I; I remember reading his seminal work 'Chariots of the Gods' in the 1970's, and back then he was treated very badly, disgusting really, why do we ridicule people who ask questions? The information war.

    "Who built Bosnia’s discovered pyramids? How were the pyramids’ underground tunnels filled in 5,000 years ago? Researcher Semir Osmanagich shares his intriguing findings from this notable archeological site in an interview with Regina Meredith.
    Born in Bosnia and living in Houston, TX, Semir Sam Osmanagich is an author, researcher and businessman who discovered an ancient pyramidal complex in Visoko (Bosnia-Herzegovina). The collection of five colossal stone structures in the shape of the pyramid includes an extensive pre-historical underground tunnel network.

    I wish Joe's fans would petition him to bring Ben Davidson of Suspicious Observers on his show. He would be able to explain very succinctly all those "mysteries" that Carlson is still puzzled by.

    "Ancient Egypt is an endless source of mystery and intrigue. We’re constantly discovering new and exciting things about this fascinating culture and time period. Case in point, hieroglyphics that depict everyday life, prophecies, and religious texts. Some of these ancient symbols are simple enough to translate, but others still leave experts baffled, such as the mysterious Djed Pillars. Could these devices be the evidence of some form of advanced technology?"

    " Strange stone circles and machine cut stones are being photographed for the very first time, including a large construction known as the Black Pyramid. This video takes a closer look at some of these incredible discoveries as well as other anomalies from our ancient past.
    Other topics covered in this video:

    Uzbekistan:
    In a remote area of Uzbekistan evidence suggests a huge object fell form space leaving behind a wake of catastrophe. Ancient fortresses remain scared and may reflect a possible connection to demise of Sodom and Gamora in the southern Jorden valley.

    Crete:
    Crete has a long history and in particular a history associated with a massive creature half bull, half human that would tear and consume human flesh. The labyrinth may have been discovered by Russian explorers and its effects on this entering has serious implications.

    Petra:
    New evidence suggests Petra in Jordan displays proof of its historical lineage which is much older than previously thought. Was it really a massive graveyard or the seat to an advanced stone carving civilisation?"

    The Missing Ancient Power Tools of Ancient Egypt... How Did They Run Them?

    (Many researchers believe that the pyramids were constructed to be energy generators.
    Christopher Dunn has some interesting points to make about this from an engineer's perspective.)

    "Did a highly advanced civilization exist in prehistory? Is the Giza Pyramid a remnant of their technology? Then, what was the power source that fueled such a civilization? The technology of harmonic resonance, claims renowned master craftsman and engineer Christopher Dunn. Dunn reveals that the Great Pyramid of Giza was actually a large acoustical device! Was it a source of power for the use of ancient machinery. If so, where did all the power tools go?"

    (As to where the tools went, it seems as likely to me as any other explanation that the builder were pre-dynastic off-worlders who took their tools with them once their job was completed.
    The real question then is: where did they go?)


    Michael Tellinger expands on the theory in much greater detail following:

    A very interesting summary article from Explorers Web. Not all of these ancient inventions are "controversial", but some are.
    Ancient Inventions That Were Centuries Ahead of Their Time

    We live in an age where technology often surpasses our wildest dreams. But did you know that our ancestors invented visionary devices that seem more modern than ancient — an earthquake detector, a primitive computer, a death ray, a battery, a corrective lens…their ingenuity knew no bounds.

    The Antikythera Mechanism

    In 1901, a group of sponge divers came across a Roman-era shipwreck off Antikythera Island in the Aegean Sea. It turned out to be an incredibly dangerous dive. One diver died, and the crushing pressure paralyzed two more.

    However, it was not all in vain. The recovery of the shipwreck bore exciting archaeological finds. There were bronze and marble statues, some minor artifacts, and a peculiar object about the size of a thick book. This mysterious object turned out to be one of the most intriguing discoveries ever found in Greece.

    Researchers named the object the Antikythera Mechanism. It is the world’s first example of an analog computer. It was possibly used in a temple or academy to calculate planetary positions, to predict astronomical events, and to track important dates like the Panhellenic or Olympic Games.

    Archeologists dated it from the first or second century BC. Made of bronze, and likely carried in a wooden box, it had 30 gear wheels and even a tiny script with instructions on how to use it. There is no evidence of similar devices until the medieval period.

    Greek Fire

    In the 6th century AD, the Byzantine Empire was under constant threat from Arab invasion. So Callinicus of Heliopolis created a highly destructive weapon that no one saw coming.

    It used fire…but upgraded. The recipe for Greek Fire was top-secret, a matter of life or death. Because of its success, the Byzantines managed to deter Arab aggression until the Fall of Constantinople in 1453.

    Greek Fire was fast spreading and almost inextinguishable. It was able to stay alight on water, and some reports suggest that water could have aided its spread. Sources claimed that the fire was only put out with urine, sand, or vinegar. It gained a fierce reputation, earning the name “ship killer.” It was responsible for deciding several battles, including the first Arab siege of Constantinople.


    An illustration of Greek Fire

    It was a liquid substance, usually launched onto enemy ships using pots or siphons. Even today, no one is sure what Greek Fire contains. Historians agree that it included a crude hydrocarbon, as napalm does. Other possible ingredients include quicklime, potassium nitrate, and sulfur. Chemists have tried to replicate this weapon, but the results were not as potent.

    Archimedes’ Death Ray

    Archimedes was one of the greatest mathematicians in the ancient world. Not only was he great with numbers but he was also an engineering visionary. He is famous as the guy who ran naked through the streets of Syracuse, in Sicily, shouting “Eureka!” after he noticed the displacement of water in his bathtub.

    He also invented war machines for the defense of his native town against the Romans.
    One of these war machines was a potential heat ray. This claim is controversial because historians stress that there is no evidence of this invention. Perhaps a mistranslation of the sources describing his machines? Nevertheless, over the years, many paintings and illustrations have portrayed the heat ray in action.

    Those who do believe that Archimedes created a heat ray believe the machine caught the sun with polished bronze or copper mirrors, angling the ray at Roman ships. They believe that the ships caught fire because of the intense heat. Scientific tests have proved that it is possible to set a ship on fire with this method.

    The Hypocaust System

    The word hypocaust comes from two Greek words; ‘hypo’ meaning under and ‘caust’ meaning burnt. Caius Sergius Orata developed the system in 80 BC and was mostly used by the rich upper classes in northern Italy. It was also a key component of thermal Roman baths.

    Gas from fires or furnaces circulated in an open space beneath the floor. Squat pillars separated a layer of tiles and concrete from the main floor of a room. Romans could increase the temperature by adding more firewood.

    Tiles covered most government buildings and villas, making heat circulation easy. However, the lower classes rarely had the system installed, as it was expensive to maintain.

    Houfeng Didong Yi

    In AD 132, Zhang Heng, official court astronomer and historian to the Eastern Han Dynasty, invented the world’s first earthquake detector. Though not as advanced as today’s seismographs (from which we can determine the epicenter and magnitude of an earthquake), the Houfeng Didong Yi could determine the occurrence of the slightest earthquake, as well as its general direction.

    The device looked like a big bronze pot, adorned with eight dragon heads and eight toads at the base. Each dragon held a small bronze ball in its mouth, this dropped into one of the toads’ mouths to show the direction of an earthquake. The clang of the ball alerts officials to the shake, which they interpreted as either Heaven’s anger or an imbalance between good and evil.

    The Nimrud Lens

    It seems that the Assyrians had trouble reading. In 1845, archaeologist Sir Austen Henry Layard was excavating in the Assyrian city of Nimrud in northern Iraq when he came across an oval crystal. The crystal, which was eventually named the Layard Lens, is possibly the world’s first optical lens.


    Nimrud Lens in the British Museum


    Researchers date the quartz crystal to the 8th century BC. It is 4.20cm long, 3.45cm wide, and ranges in thickness from 4.10mm to 6.20mm. It has magnifying characteristics, leading some historians to believe that the Assyrians used it as a magnifier or kind of corrective lens.

    However, others believe that it may have been a simple piece of jewelry, a decorative piece on a piece of furniture, a tool to start fires, or even part of a telescope. The jury is still out on its true use.

    The Baghdad Battery

    The Baghdad Battery may be the world’s first example of electrical power. Archaeologists discovered the 2,000-year-old object south of Baghdad, in Iraq. The battery consists of a 130mm pot, a tube made from rolled-up copper, and an iron rod that may have been used for electroplating. The ceramic pot could have housed a type of acid to make this process possible.

    Experiments have shown that the object could work as a battery, although here too, the ancient use of this intriguing device is uncertain.

    Mithridate

    Mithridate, also known as mithridatum, was a classic case of “too good to be true”. Mithridates VI, the ruler of the Kingdom of Pontus, created this concoction in the 1st century BC. Mithridates VI sought to protect himself from poisoning. Alongside taking small doses of poison every day to build immunity, he made a concoction using over 60 ingredients, including substances like cardamom, parsley, myrrh, ginger, cinnamon, rhubarb, and rose leaves. Mithridates’ subjects ground these ingredients into a powder, mixed it with honey, and formed small oval pills. Mithridates believed that all these ingredients would combat poisons.


    Mithridatum

    This invention was merely the pseudo-pharmaceutical work of a paranoid monarch. Nevertheless, people used it until the 19th century. It was extremely popular in medieval and Renaissance times. It gave nobles and monarchs a sense of security from political enemies.

    Yakhchal

    The 4th century BC saw the creation of a modern staple, the freezer. The Persians created dome-like houses in the desert out of sand, clay, and other materials which could effectively trap and maintain ice. Water came in from an aqueduct or was brought to the yakhchal in buckets.

    The dome is typically 15m high, has a small ventilation hole at the top, and could preserve food year-round thanks to the two-metre thick walls. The temperature in a yakchal could reach as low as -5°C.

    Damascus steel

    People covet Damascus Steel for its shatter-resistant, sharp, and strong characteristics. But the Damascus steel knives in a modern kitchen differ from the Damascus steel of old. It had the reputation of being so hard and sharp that it could cut through a rifle barrel or slice a silk scarf falling across it.

    Historians dispute the very name since no one knows if it originally came from Damascus. Damascus steel (also called wootz steel) is a metal high in carbon, glass, iron, and charcoal. These elements were placed under high heat. But over the centuries, blacksmiths lost the art of making Damascus steel.

    40,000-year-old bracelet made with advanced technology
    NexusNewsFeed.com
    7/23/22
    https://nexusnewsfeed.com/article/an...ah9_M.facebook

    40,000-year-old bracelet made with advanced technology — The evidence
    Dating back to the Denisovan species of early humans, scientists have confirmed that a bracelet found in Siberia is 40,000 years old. This makes it the oldest piece of jewellery ever discovered.

    The bracelet is discovered in a site called the Denisova Cave in the Altai region of Siberia in 2008 and after detailed analysis, Russian experts now accept that the bracelet’s age is as correct.

    Scientists conclude it was made by our prehistoric human ancestors, the Denisovans, an extinct species of humans genetically distinct from Neanderthals and modern humans, and shows them to have been far more advanced than ever realized.

    But what made the discovery especially striking was that manufacturing technology is more common in a much later period, such as the Neolithic era.

    Indeed, it is not clear yet how the Denisovans could have made the bracelet.



    Writing in the Novosibirsk magazine, Science First Hand, Dr Derevyanko said:

    “There were found two fragments of the bracelet of a width of 2.7cm and a thickness of 0.9 cm.

    The estimated diameter of the find was 7cm. Near one of the cracks was a drilled hole with a diameter of about 0.8 cm.”

    “Studying them, scientists found out that the speed of rotation of the drill was rather high, fluctuations minimal, and that was there was applied to drill with an implement – technology that is common for more recent times”, Dr. Derevyanko told the Siberiantimes.



    Image: Bracelet is made of Chlorite – Inside are traces of drilling.
    Image credit: Anatoly Derevyanko and Mikhail Shunkov, Anastasia Abdulmanova.

    It is known that the Denisovans migrated out of Africa and branched away from other humanoid ancestors some 1 million years ago.

    Genetic studies confirm that skeletal remains of Denisovans, that dated back as early as 600,000 years ago were quite different to both Neanderthals and modern man and the studies confirm that they did coexist not only with modern humans and the Neanderthals, prior to becoming extinct, but as DNA evidence suggests, the Denisovans also must have interbred with an as yet unknown and undiscovered species of humans beings… or maybe an Extraterrestrial species?"

    "The only thing more bizarre than a 16ft, or nearly 5-meter tall statue, depicting a 5 legged human headed Bull with Wings, (which btw, was carved out of one massive piece of stone, and weighing some 40 Imperial tons, or 80 THOUSAND POUNDS). – Yes, the only thing stranger than this statue and the few others like it, is how and where they found them…Buried and consumed in earth, almost as if they were devoured by some sort of Cataclysmic mud-flood like event. These spectacular, yet ominous Winged-Bull sculptures are known as the Lamassu, and are among the remnants of the Assyrian Empire which made up the heart of Ancient Mesopotamia, or commonly referred to as, the Fertile Crescent. And I have to say that, the only thing more bizarre than the statues themselves, or how and where they found them, - is the deliberate, continued, and systematic destruction of Ancient Iraq. Which let’s not forget, just so happens to be the very land that has long been referenced as the so-called, ‘The Cradle of Civilization’, the very place where the Sumerians emerged."

    "UPDATE 335am Central time 11/25/2022 - ALERT!!!! It is confirmed! these animal shapes MATCH THE ANIMAL SHAPES IN WISCONSIN proved to be Native American mounds!!!! Especially the buffalo, rabbit, and bird (corn) shapes!!! See here! https://www.bigrivermagazine.com/effi...
    ___

    Update 419am central time 11/25/2022 - Someone just told me that today is Native American Heritage day? November 25th, 2022. I'm mind blown, because I didn't plan this to happen today, or even think about thanksgiving much when I showed this.

    Dude, that's just wild. Life is very very weird (lately even more so). Much love. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Native_...
    _____
    Update 507am central time 11/25/2022: This is amazing! I found something else!

    BOTH the Wisconsin Mounds (with the rabbit, buffalo and bird / corn shapes) as well as the Idaho mounds (with the rabbit, buffalo and bird / corn shapes).... BOTH ARE ON THE SAME EXACT LATITUDE down to a 10th of a point!

    Wisconsin: Latitude 43 13 13.56 N , Longitude 90 27 38.31 W

    Idaho site: Latitude 43 15 24.16 N , Longitude 115 0 49.31 W

    They connect in a perfect straight line from West to East from Idaho to Wisconsin along 43.1N latitude!!!

    The chanes of having the same shapes in MOUNDS .. rabbits, buffalo, birds/corn.. on the SAME EXACT LATITUDE down to a 10th of a point (both at 43.1 N).. is next to impossible to NOT be related.
    ____ Original text description below:

    2.5 miles East by Southeast of Hill City Idaho. This (what I think is an) obvious ancient Native American site is located in what is now called the "Camas Prairie Centennial Marsh Wildlife Management Area". Geo-coordinates: 43 16 2.35 N , 115 0 37.82 W

    I found this location accidentally due to earthquakes striking next to it.

    My viewers and I inquired on the origins of the site, answers received are NOT satisfactory, saying "might be, or must be" "farmers paying tribute to indians".. and other foolish excuses made for what is an obvious heritage site for Indians from North America.

    The + shape is well known as used by Native Americans in the past, and the animal shapes speak for themselves.

    The designation of this location as a "MARSH" wildlife preserve is a disgrace to all Native Americans, and the canal system which connects each spot is also ancient (not to be confused with truck ruts which I show in the video the difference between the canals and the truck ruts). Notice the farmers plowing the fields across the street have likely destroyed at least one of the structures (hopefully unintentionally).

    You can also see WAGON PATHS from the old west Wagon trail going through these structures, meaning they are older than the earliest Western settlers!

    There are no pictures of this site which I can find, no Native American sites dedicated nearby, and certainly not at the site in question.

    I suggest people of Native American heritage immediately request this land to be handed over (since its just a marsh land owned by the gov shouldn't be a big deal for them to get ownership). They deserve full access for study, and I urge tribal people to go to this preserve immediately to stand watch so no one tears these apart any more than they already have.

    Just like we would protect the Cahokia Mounds, these shapes and lakes/ canals need to be studied, preserved, and celebrated.

    I hope what I found helps, and if what I found has already been discovered, or if it turns out to NOT be Native American, I am sorry .. I don't believe the government for many reasons... the response of "farmers dedicating it to indians" just didn't sit right with me.

    Much love, and to my Native American viewers, please let me know what happens after you stake your claim (if you stake your claim) on this site. I highly doubt its chance these are in this shape, and with the Gov making this place a "marsh wildlife preserve" that just suspect in its own right!

    In the video I refer to Native Americans as "american indians".. sorry about this , I wasn't aware terminology had changed on Native American vs the other term. I mean no offense, and will always remember the change and difference in terminology going forward I promise! Much love."
