^^^ Deleted but it led me to this one.
Laird Scranton spoilt it a bit when he brought the Bermuda triangle and 6666 kilometres into it - I mean, did they have k's 300,000 years ago? - but JAW was really talkin. Those, and even longer, time frames really resonate with me. It would take that long to turn the half circle to materialists like us and would begin to explain why it's so.................................other

Uriel's Machine is an interesting book that alas I loaned and it was never returned. Most consider Uriel's Machine debunked pseudo science but I am still willing to consider its insights, specifically the trip described in The Book of Enoch allegedly to Newgrange in Boyne Valley. I read those portions of The Book of Enoch concurrent with the trip to the Boyne Valley megaliths described in Uriel's Machine (said to be sourced from The Book of Enoch) and thought that part of the book tracked well and as also did the general use of Newgrange and other sites like Stonehenge as devices to measure time based upon lunar, solar, and Venus-based calendars.

From wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uriel%27s_Machine

>>Uriel's Machine: The Prehistoric Technology That Survived the Flood is a bestselling book published in 1999 by Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas.[1] The book's name is derived from a character of the same name in the Book of Enoch. In Knight and Lomas's interpretation of the Book of Enoch, Uriel warns Enoch about the impending flood, giving him instructions for building a form of solar observatory for the purpose of preserving advanced knowledge into a time of global disaster by teaching him the movement of the Sun against the horizon over a period of time, which Enoch then records in detail in the Book of the Courses of the Heavenly Luminaries.

Summary

In Masonic mythology there are many references to seven, which the authors speculate could refer to seven cometary fragments. These seven cometary fragments are described in the book as hitting the earth in prehistory causing tsunamis. The authors link this speculation to the work of geologists Edith and Alexander Tollmann.[2] Their work proposes a series of meteors hitting the earth over the last 10,000 years, especially circa 7640 BC. Their evidence and counter-evidence is discussed in the article Tollmann's hypothetical bolide.

The book proposes that what the authors believe to have been stellar observatories (such as the first wooden Stonehenge) in Britain, and structures in the Boyne Valley in Ireland, show sufficient knowledge to be able to predict prescribed solar, lunar and venusian events and cycles, such as solstices and equinoxes. If rituals at Stonehenge involved stargazing, there is then the opportunity for an anomalous object to be spotted far more quickly if the cycles of observed celestial objects are known.
The authors quote textual evidence from the book of Enoch. They also note other coincidences made between Enoch and astronomy; for example, it is said he lived 365 years, which could be a reference to a year (365.25 days). It is also said[who?] that he knew what sacrifices to make during different times of the year, which is at odds with the Jewish lunar calendar.

The authors suggest that chambers (souterrains) found in Britain might have been attempts to build shelters to be sealed against Tsunami that would have been caused by a cometary impact in the sea. Current archaeological thought dates souterrains as late Iron Age, thousands after the supposed impact event.
Archaeologists and astronomers have been extremely skeptical about this idea. Prof Archie Roy (an astronomer and psychic researcher) and Robert Lomas gave a joint talk about technological possibilities in Megalithic society at the 2000 Orkney International Science.

Critical response

Tim Schadla-Hall, archaeologist and editor of the journal Public Archaeology, has cited the book as an example of pseudoscience, in which the authors "quote established academics in such a way as to make it seem as though they support their arguments".[3] The geology in the book is based on Tollmann's hypothetical bolide which has been rejected by specialists in meteorite and comet impacts.[4]
Stephen Tonkin, author and astronomer, said: "I believe that the astronomical basis of this book is sufficiently flawed as to render any conclusions that the authors draw from it to be highly suspect."[5]

Mike Pitts, archaeologist and journalist, says that the book contains "what we might politely call a radically alternative approach to Grooved Ware pottery" and notes that the book's bibliography contains "such items as Myths and Legends of Australia, Robert the Bruce and The Pleistocene Elephants of Siberia, but not a single primary archaeological source for England (where, it has to be said, a great deal of Grooved Ware has been found<<

About Newgrange from wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newgrange


>>Newgrange (Irish: Sí an Bhrú[1] or Brú na Bóinne)[2] is a prehistoric monument in County Meath, Ireland, located eight kilometers west of Drogheda on the north side of the River Boyne.[3] It was built during the Neolithic period, around 3200 BC, making it older than Stonehenge and the Egyptian pyramids.[4] The site consists of a large circular mound with an inner stone passageway and chambers. Human bones and possible grave goods or votive offerings were found in these chambers. The mound has a retaining wall at the front, made mostly of white quartz cobblestones, and is ringed by engraved kerbstones. Many of the larger stones of Newgrange are covered in megalithic art. The mound is also ringed by a stone circle. Some of the material that makes up the monument came from as far away as the Mournes and Wicklow Mountains. There is no agreement about what the site was used for, but it is believed that it had religious significance. Its entrance is aligned with the rising sun on the winter solstice, when sunlight shines through a 'roofbox' and floods the inner chamber. Several other passage tombs in Ireland are aligned with solstices and equinoxes, and Cairn G at Carrowkeel has a similar 'roofbox'.[5] Newgrange also shares many similarities with other Neolithic constructions in Western Europe, such as Maeshowe in Orkney, Scotland[6] and Bryn Celli Ddu in Wales. It is the most famous monument within the Neolithic Brú na Bóinne complex, alongside the similar passage tomb mounds of Knowth and Dowth, and as such is a part of the Brú na Bóinne UNESCO World Heritage Site.

After its initial use, Newgrange was sealed for several millennia. However, it featured prominently in Irish mythology and folklore, in which it is said to be a dwelling of the gods, particularly The Dagda and his son Aengus. Antiquarians first began its study in the 17th century, and archaeological excavations took place at the site in the years that followed. Archaeologist Michael J. O'Kelly led the most extensive of these and also reconstructed the frontage of the site in the 1970s, a reconstruction that is controversial and disputed.[7] Newgrange today is a popular tourist site and, according to the archaeologist Colin Renfrew, is "unhesitatingly regarded by the prehistorian as the great national monument of Ireland" and as one of the most important megalithic structures in Europe.[8]<<

There is a place on the east
Mysterious ring, a magical ring of stones
The druids have lived there once they said,
Forgotten is the race that no-one knows.


Rum de rum 'rud a derimo
Rum de rum 'rud a derimo

The circled tomb of a different age
Secret lines carved on ancient stone.
Heroic kings laid down to rest
Forgotten is the race that no-one knows.

Wait for the sun on a winter's day
And a beam of light shines across the floor.
Mysterious ring, a magical ring.
But forgotten is the race that no-one knows.
Mazars and Deutsche Bank could have ended this nightmare before it started.
They could still get him out of office.
But instead, they want mass death.

'Sicilian Stonehenge' discovered by amateur archaeologists

A group of friends stumbled across an unusual arrangement of stones in Sicily, which experts have now confirmed form a prehistoric sundial dating back to the Bronze Age.
"Making an archaeological discovery is in itself an important event, but to be part of one of the most sensational finds in recent years fills me with pride," said Giuseppe La Spina, one of the group which made the discovery.

He added that the fact the sundial was located in Gela, the town on Sicily's southern coast where he was born, "makes me very emotional".

La Spina and his colleagues came across the stones while carrying out surveys of World War II bunkers. Their report was read by Professor Alberto Scuderi, a regional director of Italy's Archaeologist Groups, who suggested the discovery get scientific confirmation.

The professor, who specializes in archeoastronomy, has been studying the find for three months, completing the work on Tuesday, January 3rd. Scuderi was due to present the full results of his analysis on Thursday at Gela's Archaeological Museum.

But a professional verification carried out on December 21st - the winter solstice - confirmed that the sundial would have been used to determine the season and solstices.

Experts used cameras, a compass and a GPS drone fitted with video recording equipment to check that the sundial worked.

The 'Sicilian Stonehenge' dates back to between 6000 and 3000BC, and is located close to the prehistoric necropolises of Grotticelle, Ponte Olivo and Dessueri.

But according to La Spina, the "really exciting part" is that the site may hold more archeological treasures. He said that it was likely the area held more clues to the past, "no less spectacular than the sundial itself."

Stonehenge tunnel given green light after nearly 30 years of delays

Steven Swinford, deputy political editor
12 JANUARY 2017 • 12:01AM
A tunnel at Stonehenge has finally given the go-ahead after decades of delays despite fears that it could blight the historic landscape.

The Government has confirmed that it intends to turn the whole length the A303, which passes within a few hundred metres of Stonehenge, into a dual carriageway with a 1.8 mile long tunnel.

The plans will be put out to consultation after 30 years of delays amid bitter divides over the impact on the environment and the World Heritage site.
While Unesco, the United Nations cultural body, has given its backing to the plans the Council for British Archaeology has suggested that it should be longer to ensure it does not blight the landscape.

Chris Grayling, the Transport Secretary, said: “This government is taking the big decisions for Britain’s future, underlined by our record £15 billion funding for road schemes. “This major investment in the South West will transform the A303 and benefit those locally by cutting congestion and improving journey times.

“It will also boost the economy, linking people with jobs and businesses with customers - driving forward our agenda to build a country that works for everyone and not just the privileged few.”

Highways England has given its backing to the plans amid concerns that 35 miles of the A303, between London and the South West, remains a single carriageway.

It said that nearby villages have become “clogged, noisy and polluted rat runs” and belives that the road needs to be widened. More than 24,000 vehicles pass Stonehenge on the road every day, which campaigners have said disrupt the peace and tranquility of the World Heritage site.

Proposals for a tunnel were first announced in 1989 but have since then been repeatedly shelved. Ministers have announced a formal consultation on the tunnel with a view to starting work in 2020 and completing the new “South West Expressway” by 2029.

Jim O’Sullivan, the chief executive of Highways England, said: “Our plans for the A303 recognise the national importance of the route and these improvements will bring real benefit to the region and local communities. “The public exhibitions will provide an excellent opportunity to explain further our plans and to hear feedback from stakeholders on our proposals to deliver the scheme.”

Mike Heyworth, director at the Council for British Archaeology, said: “Ideally we would like a longer tunnel. There is no doubt there will be benefits to removing the A303 from the immediate vicinity of Stonehenge but there will be potential damage if the portals are in sensitive locations.

“It is a very sensitive archaological landscape. Ideally we want it to avoid sensitive areas and to make sure it doesn’t have any impact on views or the setting. There was a plan for 2.7mile tunnel and everybody regarded that as the gold standard, but obviously we have to be realistic about the state of public finances.”

Dan Snow, the historian, has been more forthright in his concerns. He has said: “Of all our many treasures on these islands, none is more internationally revered than Stonehenge.

“We have recently started to realise that the standing stones are just a beginning, they sit at the heart of the world’s most significant and best preserved stone age landscape. The government’s plans endanger this unique site.

“Around the world we see pictures of our fellow humans smashing the treasures of the past and count ourselves lucky that we live in a country which values its rich history and appreciates what it offers modern Britain. Our heritage helps us understand ourselves, how we got here and where we are going.”

Sunken, 600-year-old Buddha emerges from water in China

600-year-old Buddha statue emerges from lake

600-year-old Buddha statue discovered in a reservoir
Statue could date back to Ming Dynasty, say archaeologists
Beijing, China (CNN)A 600-year-old Buddha statue has been discovered in a reservoir in east China's Jiangxi Province after water levels fell during renovation work.

A local villager first spotted the head of the Buddha last month when the water level fell by more than 10 meters during work on a hydropower gate, official state news agency Xinhua reported.
The Buddha's head sits against a cliff and gazes serenely over the body of water. It has attracted many tourists as well as locals, who see it as an auspicious sign.
Archaeologists said the statue could date back to Ming Dynasty (1368-1644).
"A preliminary study of the statue suggests it was probably built during early Ming Dynasty, maybe even earlier as the Yuan Dynasty," Xu Changqing, director of the Research Institute of Archaeology of Jiangxi province, told CNN in a phone interview.
The statue is potentially just the tip of an untapped archeological treasure trove. A base of a temple hall was also found under the water. Local records suggest the reservoir was located on the ruins of an ancient town called Xiaoshi.
Xu said an underwater archeology team is investigating both the ancient town and the statue and working on a preservation plan.

The statue was submerged in 1960 when the Hongmen reservoir was built.

Water helps protect statue
Xu added that being submerged in water could have preserved the statue, which features surprisingly detailed carving.
"If the statue wasn't preserved in the water, it could have suffered weathering, oxidation or other risks, we reckon," Xu said.
Many cultural relics were destroyed during the country's Cultural Revolution in the 1960s when people were told to get rid of everything old, feudalistic and superstitious.
The statue is around 12.5 feet (3.8 meters) tall and carved into a cliff.

China is home to a number of striking Buddhist cliff and cave carvings. The most famous is Leshan Giant Buddha, the world's tallest Buddha statue.
Guan Zhiyong, a local official, told Xinhua that the Buddha statue was built by ancient people as a spiritual protector to calm the rapid-flowing current where two rivers converge.
The statue was submerged in 1960 when the Hongmen reservoir was built. At that time, local authorities weren't aware of heritage protection, said Xu.
The re-emergence of the Buddha has brought back memories for some village elders. Huang Keping, a 82-year-old local blacksmith, said he saw the Buddha first time in 1952.
"I remember the statue was gilded at that time," Huang told Xinhua.

The beginning of a corridor was uncovered during the initial excavations
The remains of a pyramid built some 3,700 years ago have been discovered in Egypt, the antiquities ministry says.
An interior corridor and a block engraved with 10 hieroglyphic lines were among the finds at the Dahshur royal necropolis, south of Cairo.
The ministry said they were in very good condition and that excavation work was continuing to try to reveal more and establish the size of the pyramid.
It is believed to have been built during the 13th pharaonic dynasty.

Dahshur is where King Sneferu of the 4th Dynasty built ancient Egypt's first true smooth-sided pyramid, the 104m-high (341ft) Red Pyramid, about 4,600 years ago.
He also constructed an earlier version, the 105m-high Bent Pyramid, whose slopes change angle from 54 degrees to 43 degrees about halfway up.
Sneferu was succeeded by his son Khufu, the renowned builder of the Great Pyramid at Giza, which is 138m high and was a wonder of the ancient world.

Remnants of an ancient pyramid have been discovered by an excavation team in Egypt, the Associated Press reports. The structure is believed to date back some 3,700 years.
Few details about the discovery, which includes an inner corridor and interior blocks, have been released. But the AP reports the structure was located near King Sneferu's bent pyramid south of Cairo in the Dashur royal necropolis, which was a burial site for high-ranking officials.

The Advanced Pre Ice Age Civilizations that Vanished From Earth [FULL VIDEO]


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VUmtCLePL8

Published on Jan 28, 2017
A physical and intellectual journey, a worldwide exploration looking for the ancient ruins of a lost civilization, this video follows clues in ancient scriptures and mythlogy and in the scientific evidence of the flood that swept the Earth at the end of the last Ice Age. This video explores the question of early humans swept away by the catastrophe. Who were these populations - pre-civilised hunter-gatherers or more sophisticated peoples altogether?

Some 6,000 or 7,000 years ago in Mesopotamia, civilisation has been with mankind for many millennia longer. Examines which coastal areas vanished beneath the sea as the ice melted at the end of the last Ice Age, a catastrophic inundation we find in the Flood myths of most of the world's traditional religions. Goes diving and finds, in some cases, incontrovertible ruins; in other cases the piles of stone might well be natural rock formations, but Hancock argues for their human origins.
