Çatal Hüyük Çatalhöyük, vroeger Çatal Hüyük (Turks: çatal = vork; hüyük = heuvel), was een belangrijke neolithische en chalcolithische nederzetting in het zuiden van Centraal-Anatolië. De oudste bewoningslagen dateren van ca. 7400 v. Chr. De site werd in 2012 door UNESCO op de werelderfgoedlijst geplaatst. De plaats bleef ruim 1000 jaar lang bewoond maar raakte rond 6000 v.Chr. in verval. In 1958 werd Çatalhöyük bij toeval door plaatselijke boeren ontdekt. Ligging[bewerken] Cultuur[bewerken] Mellaart beschreef de nederzetting abusievelijk als de oudste stad ter wereld, want het is beter van een groot dorp te spreken dan van een stad. On-site restauratie van een typisch interieur in Çatalhöyük. Naar schatting woonden er tot 10.000 mensen op de oostelijke heuvel, maar waarschijnlijk varieerde de omvang van de bevolking in de loop van de geschiedenis van de gemeenschap. De bewoners begroeven hun doden in het dorp. Religie[bewerken] Opvallend is het grote aantal beeldjes dat is gevonden bij Çatalhöyük.

Lankan civilization the oldest in South Asia Is Lankan civilization the oldest in South Asia? by P. D. A. S. The evidence of a rich civilisation in ancient Sri Lanka, mentioned in the Mahawansa, had gathered momentum in the pre-millennium decades, with the archaeological evidence unearthed by the excavations, under Dr. The material evidence examined and tested at Cornel University, USA, by Prof. Those, together with the untested evidence from the rest of the country including Vaulpone Caves in Balangoda, Fa-Hien Cave in Matugama, Beli Lena in Kitulgala, Batatota Lena in Kuruwita, Manil Lena in Ayagama (according to archaeological sources) where official excavations had not been undertaken, but 'fossils' of a distant age comparable with those tested found, left no doubt that Sri Lanka had been blessed with a superior civilisation when the rest of South East Asia, including India, lay under a mass of bare rock and earth. Civilisation is the starting point of the true history of any nation.
Ley-lines There are several developed theories on the purpose of ley-lines, many of which offer valid potential; something which in itself illustrates the complexity of unravelling the myriad of alignments from several millennia of activity. It is likely that ley-lines are a product of different elements from several of the following theories, being created at different times, for different purposes. The following examples are the current contenders for explaining how such a dedication to straight-lines has led mankind its present position. It is important to recognise the distinction between ley-lines and geometric alignments. Spirit ways and Death roads - (Funerary paths): Although there is little direct evidence for 'religious' worship in the modern sense of the word at megalithic sites, there is certainly evidence that funerary rites were involved at several important locations (some of which may be classed a secondary use).

Deadly time vortex appears over Antarctica Sector of erupting anomalies. Disturbing news has been leaking out from the giant continent at the bottom of the world. Some scientists manning lonely outposts under the drifting and shifting aurora are nearly paralyzed with fear. Russian researchers posted near the giant South Pole sub-glacial Lake Vostok have reported eerie anomalies and incidents over the past few years that sometimes seem to border on the frayed edge of creeping madness. Artificial structure found under two miles of ice During April 2001 one of the world’s great secrets was revealed: an ancient structure or apparatus that lay encased miles under the hard Antarctic ice was detected by a roving spy satellite. Despite the news blackout, reports still surfaced that a secretive excavation project had commenced on the heels of the discovery. Excavation deep into the ice…What’s down there? The federal government and the Pentagon ignored the calls. High technology and strange events 2002: TV crew disappears Time vortex erupts
Researchers Discover New Lineage of Ancient Human DNA from a 40,000-year-old human finger bone found in a Siberian cave points to a new lineage of ancient human, researchers report today. The find—the first made with genetic, not fossil evidence—suggests that Central Asia was occupied at that time not only by Neandertals and Homo sapiens but also by a third, previously unknown hominin lineage. "This is the most exciting discovery to come from the ancient DNA field so far," says Chris Tyler-Smith, a geneticist at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute in Hinxton, United Kingdom. The work complicates the human story once again, much as the discovery of the controversial H. floresiensis—a.k.a. the hobbit—has upset earlier and simpler views of early human migrations around the globe. A team led by archaeologists Michael Shunkov and Anatoli Derevianko of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Novosibirsk found the finger bone in 2008 at Denisova Cave in Russia's Altai Mountains. But who was this mystery hominin?
Who Built Great Pyramid? - Hall of Gods Egyptologists would have us believe that the Great Pyramid and its two sister pyramids were built in the early dynastic period of the Old Kingdom, about 4,600 years ago. Looking at the evidence objectively, however, their case is far from clear cut. In his book ‘The Phoenix Solution’ (1998), Alan Alsford claimed that much of the evidence for the 4th dynasty origin of the Giza Pyramids and Sphinx actually pointed to an adoption scenario, rather than construction of the monuments during that time period. Thus, according to this theory, the Egyptian pharaohs Khufu and Khafre adopted the Great Pyramid, the Second Pyramid and the Sphinx, rather than built them. The most solid piece of evidence supporting the premise that the Great Pyramid, and by inference the other Giza monuments, originated in the 4th dynasty is the ‘workmen’s graffiti’. The authenticity of the workmen's graffiti in the Great Pyramid is questionable. Article continues: Legends and Records

Signs of Atlantis found in southern Spain: scientists - Health Scientists say they may have discovered the lost city of Atlantis buried deep under the marshlands of southern Spain. The legendary city is believed to have been "swallowed up by the sea," as the Greek philosopher Plato so famously put it 2,400 years ago. He wrote of a great city destroyed by floodwaters following an earthquake deep under the sea — an image that resonates at a time when Japan is struggling to recover from a devastating earthquake and tsunami off its northeast coast. A National Geographic television special that aired on Sunday details the work of American, Canadian and Spanish scientists as they attempt to prove Atlantis existed by following up on space satellite images showing unusual features in an area just north of Cadiz. The area is near the Straits of Gibraltar — widely thought to be the "Pillars of Hercules" Plato mentioned in his description of the location of Atlantis. The team is led by archaeologist Richard Freund of the University of Hartford in Connecticut.
Ice Cores May Yield Clues To 5,000-Year-Old Mystery COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The latest expeditions to ice caps in the high, tropical Peruvian Andes Mountains by Ohio State University scientists may shed light on a mysterious global climate change they believe occurred more than 5,000 years ago. They hope that ice cores retrieved from two tropical ice caps there, as well as ancient plants retrieved from beneath the retreating glaciers, may contain clues that could link ancient events that changed daily life in South America, Europe and Asia. Something happened 5,200 years ago that was abrupt and very large-scale, explained Lonnie Thompson, professor of geological sciences at Ohio State and researcher with the Byrd Polar Research Center. As snow falls on these ice caps and is packed tightly over time, it forms stratigraphic layers indicating annual accumulations. In September, Thompson and his team returned from drilling ice cores from glaciers atop two peaks in Peru. The deep core at the Coropuna crater site yielded other surprises.
Acupuncture 5,200 Years Ago? Acupuncture 5,200 Years Ago? The Tyrolean Iceman died in the Alps about 5,200 years ago, but his mummified body is exceptionally well-preserved -- so well-preserved that 15 groups of tattoo marks on his body stand out vividly. These punctures do not seem to be ornamental, like those on a sailor's biceps, nor are they on parts of the body usually displayed. What is most interesting are their locations; some groups are placed at traditional Chinese acupuncture points. Bolstering this suspicion is the determination from computer tomography (noninvasive imaging) that the Iceman suffered from arthrosis of the lumbar spine. "These findings raise the possibility that the practice of therapeutically intended acupuncture originated long before the medical tradition of ancient China (approximately 1000 B.C.) and that its geographical origins were Eurasian rather than East-Asian, consistent with far-reaching intercultural contacts of prehistoric mankind."
