OOPARTS, Part 4

Now, you might be ready.

If you’re coming to this subject for the first time, you still may want to review Parts II & 3, before reading any further. It forms the basis for what I am about to discuss. If you choose not to go back and read that shorter article—you have been warned! J

Let me help guide you gently into the subject.

Do unexplained technologies provide proof for the existence of Pre-Flood civilizations?

· Have you ever given thought to how involved the fallen Lucifer and his kingdom were in corruption Pre-Flood humanity?

· If you believe that the Flood of Noah actually happened, have you ever considered state of the technology of these Pre-Flood peoples?

· Were they simple farmers or hunter-gatherers foraging the earth for Mother Nature’s handouts?

· Did these ancients learn to weave intricate clothing (such as three-piece suites?), make jewelry and sunglasses?

· Did they do advanced brain & fetal surgery; have advanced dental care, and make corrective lenses for eye conditions?

· Did they build houses and temples to the fallen angels they worshipped? Have remains exist today of ancient high technology houses, temples and even cities—that were so advanced that the construction techniques would baffle even the engineers of the 21-century?

· Did they fly?

· Did they bend the atom to their will and unleash its power upon other civilizations?

· Did they have spacecraft?

· Could they have left behind physical evidence of their existence that can be found in “ancient” and millions of year old mineral, stone and even coal deposits found hundreds or thousands of feet below ground? Such as Pots, Pans, Shoes, Walls, Houses…

Here is a bold statement: Much of what we think we know about the past is wrong!

Here’s another perspective:

Did you know that Columbus did not discover America?

What do you think all those people who were living in the Caribbean thought about that Columbus fellow when showed up in his three small ships? Some of their own ships were better constructed than his. Maybe some told him stories of their Indian and Chinese ancestors who conquered and ruled both North and South America? Maybe some of those Stone Age North & South American barbarians might have told of their Roman ancestors? Others might even have told of their Egyptian forbearers while explaining the meaning of their ancestor’s hieroglyphics in what is now the American Midwest and Southwest? Perhaps others with Jewish ancestors explained the meaning of the ancient Hebrew inscriptions dating from King Solomon’s time that were spotted at the sites of ancient sea, river and lake ports throughout North America, South America and just about everywhere else in the world an ancient maritime trade route took their patriarchs?

Others might have told of their Celtic ancestors and shared about the ongoing contact they had with their Irish brothers and sisters in the Isles across The Pond. Maybe the North American Celts [1] shared about why they named the rivers and streams as they did using that ancient Celtic tongue—you know—those “Indian names” that are still used to this very day on the East Coast of North America?

Here’s a little story to whet your appetite:

In 1964 two amateur archaeologists unearthed a stone carving in Wyoming County, West Virginia[2], that boasted an inscription ten foot in length. They assumed it was the work of American Indians but its meaning eluded them. Many years later, word of this find reached the enormously respected ears of the late Dr. Robert Fell, President of Harvard’s Epigraphic Society. It took him all of a minute to work out that the inscription was an advanced form of Ogham [3]. He translated the message into Old Irish, then into modern Irish and then into English.

It read as follows:

"At the time of sunrise, a ray grazes the notch on the left side on Christmas Day, the first season of the year, the season of the blessed advent of the saviour Lord Christ. Behold he is born of Mary, a woman."

The Christmas Day carving has been dated to between 500 and 700AD. Dr. Fell and his colleagues then looked at their watches, made some calculations and reunited beside the carving just before sunrise on December 22, 1982. And here they watched in amazement as the first shaft of sunlight came powering through the sky like a torch beam and struck the center of a Celtic sun symbol on the left side of the panel. Gradually the entire carving lit up and the inscription exploded to life. Subsequent studies show this phenomenon only occurs on the winter solstice. On other days, the carving is only partially lit up.

In recent years, more Celtic carvings have been discovered in West Virginia (Bear’s Fork, Horse Creek), Kentucky (Red River Gorge), Colorado (Shell Rock Canyon) and Newfoundland, among many others dating from 800 BC.

Here’s yet another perspective:

How much do you know about Steam Engines? Did you know the first automobiles ran on water (aka: steam), not gasoline? Did you know there was a Roman toy maker who once encouraged Cesar to use his model steam engine on all his warships? Although, the Greeks [4] claim they invented the steam engine earlier, along with:

· automatic doors

· the vending machine

· tumbler locks

· central heating

· indoor showers

· the thermometer

· the flame thrower and the fire extinguisher (the connection there seems obvious)

· automatic clocks and alarm clocks

· air and water pumps,

· floating bricks[5]

· the movie projector [6]

· and the Odometer

They also invented (unfortunately, only as entertainment):

· automotive vehicles (automobiles, aka: the car) with automatic drive, a gear box, hydraulic programmed valves and other complex components

· and the lift (aka: “the elevator”, for our American friends)

· the first known analogue computer

· and even robots (no, I am not kidding. Seriously! Think household maid.)

If you still doubt me, check out the link below for the Museum of Ancient Greek Technology in Katakolon [7].

Do you still think the Wright brothers were the first to fly at Kitty Hawk? They weren’t the first to fly. The Greeks claim that, too, although several other cultures have records of air flight in a post-flood world, including the ancient Chinese, Mayans, Inca, civilizations of India, Mongolia & Pakistan, to name just a few.

Did Marconi first invent the radio? Nope. There are examples of radios used in England in the Middle Ages.

Here’s a mind-bender you usually are not encouraged to contemplate:

Why would the oldest Egyptian pyramid, the Great Pyramid, the one built with the highest technology, the biggest and heaviest blocks, be more precisely made than those that follow to an accuracy in the millimeters? Did you know that this massive structure which can be seen from space is so incredibly and perfectly leveled (that’s a term used by engineers), that even today’s high tech laser-guided professionals would be hard pressed to replicate the feat?

Did you know that the "newer" pyramids are crumbling because they were built with less skill? Apparently they were built in imitation of the Great Pyramid. Did you know that even today engineers would not be able to build it, and only recently have developed some of the technology that would make it possible to replicate it? And there are hundreds of Pyramids to be found in central Asia, some of which are larger?

(Maybe there’s a reason that province of China is “forbidden?”)

Though we may not agree with the statements or conclusions reached by Anthropologist & Author Jonathan Gray, some concepts in his book, Dead Men's Secrets, are intriguing:

"On November 17, 3398 B.C., two billion people, with their astonishing technology, vanished from the face of the earth. This lost super race beat us to the moon, to computers, and to nuclear war[i]. A cosmic disaster occurred which wiped out a super civilization and generated 6,000 foot tidal waves. It was the disaster known to early civilizations worldwide as the great flood (the deluge mentioned in the book of Genesis in the Bible, for which Noah constructed the Ark to save a remnant of mankind).

The descendants of this super race branched out from Ararat to create civilizations less advanced technologically, but still with some knowledge of their original civilization. The theory of evolution, which believes in the gradual progression of man, cannot stand up to the evidence such that governed by the law of thermo-dynamics, for example. The evidence of fully developed cities and an advanced technology of a superior man, whose society deteriorated over time, are irrefutable.”

“Early ‘cave men’ wore clothes like ours? That man knew the secret of flight before the twentieth century? That early civilizations performed open-heart surgery and fluoroscopy? That there were once shining cities illuminated by a means of electricity unknown to us today. The list is endless and fascinating, pointing to a super civilization, evidences of which can no longer be ignored.”

“Archaeological and anthropological evidence that something very big happened on this planet in the past…something so big it wiped traces of just about everything from the face of the earth. From around the world, ‘impossible’ ancient inventions have been surfacing of late, and some of them from a technology as advanced as our own.”

“Nearly all the writings of ancient people worldwide tell the same story, that of decline from an original ‘Golden Age.’ That a cataclysmic disaster wiped out the advanced world. Today’s diggings worldwide show that these traditions tally with the facts.”

“Enormous stone masses or metal fragments are there; they cannot be argued away.”

Now, this man speaking to you is of the opinion that this original advanced (sinful and fallen) world gave impetus to all succeeding civilizations, and that humanity has been on a consistently downward spiral. However, there have been occasional revivals of technological and scientific glory. I also believe this perspective to be well within the framework of scientific thinking, despite the fact that most of those who the use “scientific method” dismiss the Bible as fairy tale.

Physician Dr. Charles S. Finch III, in his opinion concerning where this wide range of knowledge exhibited in the ancient cultures originated, made these important statements:

“As history dawns medicine is already at a very advanced state and it underwent a decline in later ages which was not reversed until the scientific breakthroughs of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

“It is the conceit of modern historians that human culture has evolved in linear fashion from the simple to the complex. A more clear-sighted perception of history would show us that this flies in the face of the true facts; the progression of human civilization might be more accurately described as a sinusoidal wave, in which the ebb and flow of civilized progress is represented by peaks and valleys.

“From every pinnacle there is a regression and every succeeding civilization is faced with having to re-discover old truths. Many of the ‘marvels’ of the modern age are the fruit of recovering older ideas.”

Much of what the ancient physicians understood we can recognize today only because we ourselves have reached the same point in the development of our medical sciences. But did they also have access to healing wisdom that was beyond us?

Here are some additional examples:

Over the last three decades, Dr. Abner Weisman of the New York Medical College has been collecting more than 3,000 Precolumbian clay sculptures, all of which exclusively portray medical symptoms and surgical procedures. Not long ago the collection was placed on exhibit at the National Library of Medicine near Washington D.C. The sculptures came from Mexico and other parts of Latin America representing various New World cultures, with many of the figures dating back between 500 A.D. and 2000 B.C.E.

Dr. Weisman is of the opinion that their purpose was to be used by ancient physicians as teaching tools for students, to help them make diagnoses and show them correct surgical applications. The figurines are detailed enough to accurately show signs and symptoms of malnutrition, deformity, and a number of sicknesses, as well as techniques for amputation, ceasarian sections and trephining.

Similar sophisticated medical knowledge was depicted on ancient Andean pottery, particularly among the pre-Inca cultures of Chan Chan, Paracas, Nazca, Wari and Tiawanaku, all dating to within the first millennium. The portraits are complemented by the archaeological discovery made at several sites of surgical instruments made of obsidian, bronze and copper, as well as remains of cotton bandages and gauze.

Among the Chimus—who flourished on the northern coast of Peru—are beautifully carved wooden arms, legs and hands, used as artificial limbs. These indicate that skillful amputations had been performed, which in turn presupposes the practice of hygiene, anesthetics and an intimate knowledge of anatomy.

Chimu pottery, too, reveals surgical techniques. On one piece, an anesthetic is being administered to a patient being prepared for an abdominal incision. The recognized success of these prehistoric examples of surgery testify to scientific developments beyond the understanding of later, supposedly “cultured” civilizations.

Further clues can be gleaned by studying the Quechua and Aymaran languages of the Andiean central highlands and altiplano, which event today still have a rich vocabulary for describing both the symptoms and the clinical applications for a multitude of physical shortcomings. A lexicon being prepared by Peruvian linguist Gonzales Helguin is so far several volumes long.

Finally, evidence of advanced medical knowledge can be determined from the skeletons of the patients themselves. It would appear the Andeans were experts particularly in cranial surgery, for their recovery success rate, based on post-operation bone growth, was anywhere between 55 and 85 perent, depending on the culture, as compared with between 25 and 33 percent among nineteenth century European countries. As medical researcher Shawn S. Kern noted:

“Over a century of investigations, scientists have succeeded in discovering the medical motives and reconstructing many of the methods involved in this most daring kind of prehistoric surgery. But they have not yet accounted for the remarkable rate of recovery enjoyed among the trepanation patients in pre-Columbian Peru.”

The ancient Peruvians were known to use the tourniquet, forceps and scalpels of highly polished brass, and employed cocoa-based anesthetics. Medical historian Dr. Roy L. Moodie observed that the Peruvians also practiced successful amputations, excisions, bone transplants and cauterizations. This he noted presupposed a far better level of knowledge than what existed in Europe and America as late as the nineteenth century.

Father Cobo, a sixteenth century Spanish chronicler from Lima, wrote about the Inca population in his day: “They have more knowledge of wounds and sores, and had particular herbs to cure them They cured wounds and cut them in ways of great value.” Cobo also acknowledged that they had surgical skills far superior to those of the Conquistadors.

Modern Cuzco surgeon Dr. Sergio Quevedo has found evidence that Precolumbian physicians expertly employed ultra-thin metal wires as sutures and ligatures for closing off large blood vessels. In one case, a Peruvian mummy’s cranium contained six extremely fine gold wires that had helped heal a bone infection.

Various inscriptions taken from shrines along the Nile outline the use by the Egyptian physicians of a mold grown on still water, prescribed for wounds and infections. Helmuth M. Bottcher in his research on wonder drugs, demonstrated that the Egyptians possessed not only penicillin, but produced and utilized auremycin and terramycin as well. The ancient sources also showed that the early physicians understood the need for sterilization. They fumigated their operating rooms, and before making an incision, washed their hands thoroughly, and made sure knives were both washed and heated in a flame.

The Berlin Papyrus, from the thirteenth century B.C.E., asked for women, as a pregnancy test, to daily urinate on bags of wheat and barley. Not until 1927 was it demonstrated that the hormones in the urine of a pregnant woman accelerates cereal growth, while urine from a nonpregnant woman retards growth. The ancient Egyptians also observed that if the child was to be a boy, then the wheat grew faster, and if it was to become a girl, the barley showed signs of more rapid growth. Even though this process once proved successful time and again in determining the sex of an unborn baby, today modern science has yet to explain how this was accomplished, because we are unable to fully reproduce this process.

It is becoming increasingly apparent that several ancient cultures also understood the interaction of bacteria and antitoxins in the human body. In 1858, Livingston reported finding African peoples having practiced a form of vaccination for many centuries. This was confirmed earlier, in 1716, more than a century before vaccination came into being in Europe, for Cotton Mather of Boston learned how to inoculate against smallpox from one of his African slaves.

The Sanctya Grantham, a Vedic Hindu work compiled about 1500 B.C.E., gives instructions on smallpox vaccination in these words:

“Collect the fluid from the pustules (of infection) on the point of a sharp instrument; insert it into a man’s arm so that the fluid mixes with the man’s blood. A fever will follow, but the disease will be mild and create no complications.”

This text was first read in Europe before the Academie des Sciences in Paris in 1826—three years after the death of Edward Jenner, the supposed discoverer of the vaccination technique, nearly three and a half millennia after the Sanctya Grantham was written.

Over four and a half millennia before Louis Pasteur identified the existence of bacteria and ascribed to them the cause of many diseases, the great physician Imhotep possessed the same knowledge.. Egyptian legends handed down through the centuries tell how his wife, Apopi, was once stricken with trachoma, a bacterial eye infection that usually leads to blindness. The early physician applied a paste of green slate that contained anti-bacteriological ingredients. Apopi’s eyes festered and cleared, and she was able to see again. What is amazing, however, is that Imhotep identified the source of the infection as “tiny worms” so small they are “invisible to the eyes of men.”

Three millennia later, the Roman chronicler Varro, basing his findings on Egyptian sources, gave a similar assessment concerning the origins of air-borne sickness: “There are bred certain minute creatures which cannot be seen by the eyes, which float on the wind and enter the body through the mouth and nose, and there cause serious diseases.”

What mystifies the experts is that the most sophisticated healing knowledge appears first in Egypt’s earliest era, then declines significantly in later periods. It is as if the physicians at the very beginning of civilization along the Nile had inherited a high level of information and wisdom from an older unknown source, but were unable to improve upon it or even maintain it as time went by.

The same can also be said of surgical tools that were once used quite extensively. At the Temple of Kom Ombo in southern Egypt, wall engravings dating to 100 B.C.E. depict an impressive array of surgical instruments utilized at the time. Yet at Nauplion in Crete, the tool kit employed by a Minoan doctor was found going back to the fifteenth century B.C.E. that is not much different from its Egyptian counterpart portrayals, except for being even more diversified. What is more, the Minoan copper tools are virtually identical to the bronze and iron instruments from Greece used a thousand years later. Likewise, the first millennium B.C.E. Hindu medical work, the Sushruta Samhita, describes a very similar set of tools. Again, it appears a high standard of surgical skills was exercised from the dawn of the known ancient cultures, but that this original pristine wisdom was slowly lost and never surpassed or even regained[8].

PHYSICAL REMAINS:
There are recently discovered artifacts that cannot be dismissed. There are objects of metal sitting in museums, unquestionably made in the ancient world, which would have required very advanced technology to produce; technologies not to be repeated until our day. And how about this: forensic proof of bullet holes in the skulls of “primitive man.”

The Museum of Natural History in London exhibits a Neanderthal skull discovered near Broken Hill, in Rhodesia, in 1921. On the left side of the skull is a hole, perfectly round. There are none of the radial cracks that would have resulted had the hole been caused by a weapon such as an arrow or a spear. Only a high-speed projectile such as a bullet could have made such a hole. The skull directly opposite the hole is shattered,

having been blown out from the inside. This same feature is seen in modern victims of head wounds received from shots from a high-powered rifle. No slower projectile could have produced either the neat hole or the shattering effect.

The Rhodesian skull was found 60 feet below the surface. Only a period of several thousand years can account for a deposit of that depth. To assume that nature could have accumulated that much debris and soil over only two or three hundred years would be ridiculous. Rhodesian man was shot by a high-velocity projectile, but the bullet that killed him must have been fired at an early period in human history.

In his book Secrets of the Lost Races, author Rene Noorbergen had the following to say:

"A German forensic authority from Berlin has positively stated that the cranial damage to Rhodesian man's skull could not have been caused by anything but a bullet."

The examination results of the Rhodesian skull are not the only evidence that someone (or even some nations) possessed rifles or similar pieces of armament in the distant past. The Paleontological Museum of the USSR in Moscow contains an artifact that strongly supports this conclusion. It is the skull of an aurochs, a type of bison now extinct. The skull was discovered west of the Lena River, and its age has been judged to be several thousand years.

What arrested the attention of Professor Constantin Flerov, curator of the National Paleontological Museum in Moscow, and his colleagues was that the forehead of the aurochs's skull was pierced by a small round hole. The hole has an almost polished appearance, without radial cracks, indicating that here too the projectile that penetrated the animal's skull entered at a very high velocity in a nearly level trajectory. There is no doubt that the aurochs was alive when he was shot: the calcification around the aperture is evidence of that. The distance between gunner and animal, however, was too great to inflict a mortal wound. The animal survived the wound, and died years later from other causes. But his bones lasted through the ages, and with them evidence of the destructive ability of a developed people.

Another human skull, this one from Florisbad, South Africa and dated at 130,000 years old, has both an entrance hole and an exit hole that are clean and well-defined—again, like a bullet wound.

One of the most controversial images found in Paleolithic art comes from the site of La Marche, recorded by French paleontologist Stephane Lwoff, and dated to 14,000 B.C.E. Among over 1,500 stone engravings is one of a mysterious figure dressed with helmet, several amulet-like necklaces, tunic and boots who is holding what looks like a rifle in one hand. The rifle is clearly shown with a long barrel, bracing bands, sight-piece, clip, cartridges and butt. Other images appear to be of shorter barreled pistols, also shown with cartridges. In 1901, a stone carving was excavated from Les Trois Freres cavern from a depth of 21 feet and dated circa 13,000 B.C.E. It has every appearance of being a model of a pistol form of weapon, complete with short barrel, bracing bands, scope, sighting-piece and hand-held butt. What had the Cro-Magnon artist seen and was trying to faithfully copy?

Sound Like Science Fiction?

The global flood catastrophe is one of the key facts of all history. Not only is there a mass of geological evidence to be found, but is has also left an indelible impression on the memory of the entire human race. More than 600 cultures have their own individual flood traditions that reveal a widespread agreement on essential points:

· the prior corruption of mankind

· a flood warning unheeded by the masses

· a survival vessel

· the preservation of up to eight people with representative animal life

· the sending forth of a bird to determine the suitability of reemerging land

· significance in the rainbow

· descent from a mountain

· and the re-population of the whole earth from a single group of survivors

· Especially remarkable is the persistence of that biblical name: Noah

The Name Noah Recorded All Over The World:

When you consider the incredible language differences spanning diverse populations all over the world, extreme local distortions in flood legends it is amazing that the name “Noah” has survived virtually unchanged in such isolated places as Hawaii (Nu-u), the Sudan (Nuh), China (Nu-Wah), the Amazon region (Noa), Phrygia (Noe) and among the Hottentots (Noh and Hiagnoh). Just to name a few.

SUDDEN APPEARANCE:
Are you aware that "ALL CULTURES BEGAN SUDDENLY" and were fully developed? A long preliminary period is not supported by Archaeology. Before cities on earth, there was nothing. There was no transition whatsoever between the ancient civilizations and primitive ones, despite what you may have been led to believe. Ancient advanced cultures were at their peak from the beginning, deteriorating from their apex.

Consider this, with relatively few exceptions, what has been found in what archaeologist term “earlier layers of settlement” underneath ancient, advanced: Great cities, enormous temples, pyramids of overwhelming size, colossal statues with tremendous expressive power, luxurious tunnels and tombs; splendid streets flanked by magnificent sculpture, perfect “modern” drainage systems. Did you know that some cultures had a very advanced mathematical system, including a decimal system at the very start? A ready-made writing system already advanced and perfected. From their start, societies were already divided into specialist classes: An army, civil service and hierarchy minutely organized and courts exhibiting all the indications of well-defined precedence and form.

What many conclude from the evidence is this:

1. Each of the first civilizations appeared suddenly, already fully developed

2. Connections existed between these cultures on distant continents (including evidence of shipping trade)

3. Civilization’s footprints led back to the Middle East Mountains where Noah and his family left the Ark.

The sudden appearance of civilization is a memorial to history's one great catastrophe: Noah’s Flood.

Ancient Maps:
Hard evidence shows that ancient knowledge of this planet was far more sophisticated than we are typically led to believe. Ancient maps are surprisingly accurate and reveal knowledge of parts of the earth that were not known until modern Satellite imaging revealed them. They show profound changes that have taken place since the flood, especially at the Arctic Polar Regions.

According to Scholars, maps drawn from the 11th to the 17th century were copied from maps that were thousands of years older. Some maps show Greenland and Antarctica free of ice. (The Piri Reis Map [9] from 1513 shows Antartica with an accuracy equivalent to that made by modern satellites!).

These maps display a scientific achievement far surpassing the abilities of the navigators and map-makers of the Renaissance, Middle Ages, the Arab or Roman worlds. Even Archaeological understanding of the Egyptians doesn’t support the idea that they’re map making abilities could peer beneath ice-sheets!

Here’s food for thought: According to the Kebra Nagast, sacred book of the Ethiopians, their ancient sovereign the Queen of Sheba was once given a gift of a flying machine by King Solomon of Israel in the first millennium B.C.E.:

“He gave her the most glorious of glories, a chariot which could ride in the air, which he had built according to the teachings received from the gods of old.”

In this vehicle Solomon was able to travel in one day over a distance that would have taken three months to walk. It would appear the Hebrew ruler put his flying craft to good use, emplying it to observe and map the world, for ninth century Arab historian Al Masudi recorded that Solomon made charts that “showed the constellations, the stars, the earth with her continents and oceans, the inhabited landmasses, her plants and animals, and many other wondrous things.”

The Torajda people [10] of the mountains of Celebes island in Indonesia recount that they were once ruled by benevolent kings who came to them on ships which “followed the line of the rainbow’s arc across the sky, powered by the lightning’s fork.”

The Torajda, in memory of these past events, still construct their homes or sagos in the shape of the prehistoric airships in great crescent arcs with bows pointing upward, painted with spiral designs representing the energy and vibration once powering the craft.

Today the natives are replacing their old building materials of woven bamboo and rattan with corrugated iron sheets, with the result that their homes now look even more curious, like giant grounded flying craft from some bygone era.

Legends very similar to those of the Torajda are found among the Polynesians of the South Pacific Islands. On Pohnpei the natives tell of learned men who long ago came from the west ages before the first Europeans arrived. These former teachers came in “shining boats” that “flew above the sea.” Their stay was very brief, but the natives still speak of the “magical works” the ancient westerners performed.

Several First Peoples in their folklore repeatedly mention either having possessed or being visited by some form of aerial craft. The Chippewas speak of once owning gin-gwin or “flying boats;” the Pimas remember the coming of “tall fair-haried ones” who arrived in “sky craft;” the Navajo describe “golden strangers” traveling in “flying canoes;” the Yucatan Maya in their sacred book Popul Vuh honored their ancestors’ journeying by air to far locations; and tribes of Equador tell the story of their founder, Naymlap, being “taken up heavenward” by their gods who flew inside a “speaking (roaring) stone vessel.”

Among the Hopis are similar tales that in the World Age previous to the present one, the inhabitants of the planet rode about in patuwvotas, described as “shields of hide” that traveled from place to place with lightning speed, utilizing the “creative forces” within the Earth. The legends say that these prehistoric peoples built huge cities across the surface of the planet, but after a period of peace began using the patuwvotas for aerial warfare.

They would take off, travel swiftly to another city, destroy it from on high, then return swiftly to their own urban center before anyone knew what had happened. Because of their neglect of the Creator and the harmony among humankind, these inhabitants of the former World Age and their technology were eventually destroyed amid global cataclysms.

The Hopis record further that their ancestors were among the survivors who crossed over from islands to the west of North America. The deity Sotuknang, however, gave them a prophecy that may one day be fulfilled:

“Down on the bottom of the seas lie all the proud cities, the flying potuwvotas and the worldly treasures corrupted by evil, and those people who found no time to sing praises to the Creator from the tops of their hills. But the day will come, if you preserve the memory and meaning of your rescue, when these stepping-stones will emerge to prove the truth I speak.”

Would you like some more?

Modern Sanskrit scholar Professor D. K. Kanjilal from West Bengal, who has done exhaustive research on the various Vimana texts, gave this condensed description of one form of craft:

“Apart from the three pilots, it could accommodate about 7 or 8 people, and was probably amphibious, because it could come down safely at sea and then return to the shore. The flying vehicle as it moved on the earth left marks of its wheels. It had scheduled flights, three in the day and three at night. There is a graphic description of the aerial vehicle belonging to the Maruts. The buildings trembled, trees and small plants were uprooted by the violent wind, the caves in the hills were resounded, and the sky seemed to be torn asunder, or churned, owing to the great speed and the loud noice of the vehicle.”

In the Lomaka Jataka are descriptions of flying craft made from four different metals that also had the ability to plunge to the bottom of the sea. In the tenth century collection of works called the Kathasaritsagata, a giant-sized Vimana was portrayed that had four separate mechanical constructions allowing it to move on land, in the air, in water, and through extreme heat or fire. The craft could travel 2,000 miles without stopping. One of these owned by King Naravahanadutta carried up to a thousand people.

However, according to still other Sanskrit sources, eventually the misuse of Vimanas for aerial warfare in the Great Bharata War caused the prehistoric civilization of Rama and other epic heroes to be lost, along with the technical knowledge of flight itself.

Various Sanskrit descriptions are not the result of imagination, but are based on very real technical and scientific principles, was demonstrated in 1895, when the feasibility of flight, based on ancient Hindu scientific texts, was demonstrated in India eight years before the Wright brothers took off at Kitty Hawk. In that year a scholar named Shivkar Bapuji Talpade built an unmanned model with a mercury engine as described in the ancient treatises, which he named the Marutsakthi, or “Power of Air.“

In Bombay before a large audience made up of local authorities and political figures, Talpade successfully launched his craft to an altitude of 1,500 feet. Unfortunately, the scholar’s vehicle crashed, and he was unable to afford to rebuild it. Eventually Talpade died in 1916, in relative obscurity.

Yet the event was recorded by the newspaper Kesari, as well as by local chronicler Ratnakar Mahajan. Historian Evan Koshtka believed the experimental flight was significant enough to describe Talpade as the “first creator of a modern aircraft.”

Most scientists do not accept the Bible as fact, and since catastrophic events in our history would lend too much credence to the truth of the Biblical Flood of Noah, anything discovered that supports the Bible is considered suspect, dismissed and otherwise avoided. Instead, the secular-humanistic and Darwinian worldview is promoted, which assumes that man has evolved both physically and technologically from the primitive to the modern on a uniform basis. The theory (at least in the Western Continents of North & South America), pushes the unusual belief that all cultures developed separately, having absolutely no contact with each other, despite any archaeological evidence to the contrary.

Given these presuppositions, what is a scientist to do when encountering ancient artifacts produced by antique high technology?

This scientist should be careful what they report, because they risk ridicule and professional suicide as many others had previously done for veering from the “accepted story.” As a result such a scientist might convince oneself and other scientists who discover similar items (even if they practice different scientific disciplines), that these things can be explained by the ingenuity, “elbow grease.” or some other creative theory that, if examined too closely, would lead to far too many questions one should not be asking.

Perhaps this is why items like true optical corrective eyeglass lenses end up being described as "worship artifacts." Everyone knows the ancients didn't have optical lenses, right?

Just take a look at some of Will Hart’s [11] articles at Nexus Magazine as a small example.

If the Bible account is true, then evidence in the form of archeological artifacts and the like should be found in the fossil and archeological record, at least occasionally, right?

They are found.

They are found every day.

They are found all over the world.

What is found?

Discoveries so mind-blowing to the masses of people indoctrinated in public schools and secular institutions standing in opposition to Biblical truth, that they actually seem like science fiction.

They are not science fiction. They are Bible facts.

In subsequent issues we’ll look at some of the evidence that indicates that what we've been taught may not be entirely accurate. However, there is one note of caution I need to share: this information comes from a variety of sources with a variety of beliefs and ideas behind them. Our point of view is that of Christians who believe that there is one God and that He created the universe. Others may share viewpoint that you and I may not agree with, but the archaeological evidence is worth considering.

I am writing from the perspective that accepts the fact there was a worldwide flood as the Bible records, and that the Theory of Evolution is a fairy tale that can be proven using the either Scientific or Biblical Models.

If you believe differently perhaps we can at least agree that what we're being told about origins and the past may be seriously flawed?

And we haven’t even begun to talk about archaeological evidence proving the existence of Giants[12]… O.O.P.A.ART's.

All the best,
