Tiahuanaco: Gatway to the Gods by Dan Eden for viewzone Ask most people who are the oldest civilization or where the oldest civilization lived and you'll here answers like Mesopotamia (Iraq), Egypt or Iran. While these cultures can be traced back to 4000 B.C., the mysterious ruins of Tiahuanaco, in Bolivia, could be 14,000 years old! If you think the Great Pyramid in Egypt is a technological marvel, wait until you see what artists and engineers were doing in Tiahuanaco. This culture thrived at the breathless, oxygen deprived elevation of 13,000 feet. The most famous icon of the archaeological site at Tiahuanaco is the Sun Gate. This calendar sculpture, though it undoubtedly depicts a "solar year," cannot however be made to fit into the solar year as we divide it at present. Some researchers have attempted to explain this as being a ritualistic calendar while others have claimed that, 14,000 years ago, the length of a year was somehow different from today.

Göbekli Tepe Neolithic archaeological site in Turkey First noted in a survey in 1963, the importance of the site was recognised by Schmidt, who directed excavations there from 1995 until his death in 2014. Since then, work has continued under the auspices of Istanbul University, Şanlıurfa Museum, and the German Archaeological Institute, under the overall direction of Turkish prehistorian Necmi Karul. It was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2018, recognising its outstanding universal value as "one of the first manifestations of human-made monumental architecture".[5] As of 2021[update], less than 5% of the site has been excavated.[6] Background Göbekli Tepe was built and occupied during the Pre-Pottery Neolithic (PPN)—the earliest division of the Neolithic period in Southwest Asia—which is dated to between 9600 and 7000 BCE. Known PPN sites in the Urfa region. PPN villages consisted of clusters of stone or mud brick houses, and sometimes substantial monumental or 'communal' buildings. fill Art
Un Artefact mystérieux :un dodécaèdre romain qui empéche de dormir les scientifiques. Il a été appelé une arme de guerre, un chandelier, un jouet d'enfant, une jauge de temps, un instrument astronomique, et un symbole religieux - pour n'en nommer que quelques-uns. Mais quel est ce mystérieux objet, ? Il ya des livres et de sites web entier qui cherche à résoudre cette énigme.Pourtant, la seule chose que les historiens s'accordent c'est sur un nom pour cette objet étrange: un dodécaèdre romain. Cette partie a été facile, car la forme mathématique de cet artefact est un dodécaèdre. Mieux décrit comme un objet en bronze ou en pierre géométriques, il a douze faces planes pentagonales, chacun avec un trou circulaire au milieu (pas nécessairement la même taille). Il est daté de quelque part autour de la IIe et IIIe siècles de notre ère, et a été fleurissent un peu partout en Europe. Mais son utilisation reste un mystère, surtout parce que les Romains qui, habituellement tenaient une comptabilité minutieuse ne font aucune mention de celui-ci dans les archives.
Coral Castle Coral Castle is an oolite limestone structure created by the Latvian-American eccentric Edward Leedskalnin (1887–1951). It is located in unincorporated territory of Miami-Dade County, Florida, between the cities of Homestead and Leisure City. The structure comprises numerous megalithic stones, mostly limestone formed from coral, each weighing several tons.[2] It is currently a privately operated tourist attraction. Coral Castle is noted for legends surrounding its creation that claim it was built single-handedly by Leedskalnin using reverse magnetism or supernatural abilities to move and carve numerous stones weighing many tons.[3][4] History[edit] Coral Castle's own promotional material says Edward Leedskalnin was suddenly rejected by his 16-year-old fiancée Agnes Skuvst in Latvia, just one day before the wedding. Edward spent more than 28 years building Coral Castle, refusing to allow anyone to view him while he worked. The Castle[edit] A view from within Leedskalnin's Coral Castle.
Les géoglyphes Nazca Les géoglyphes Nazca - Vu 8414 fois. Une archéologue américaine a récemment mis à jour un squelette en fouillant un site au sud du Pérou. Avez-vous déjà entendu parler des géoglyphes de Nazca ? Vous ne voyez peut-être pas où je veux en venir ? Nazca se situe au Pérou et c'est dans cette région que de grandes figures tracées à même le sol ont été découvertes. C'est également dans cette région que l'archéologue a fait la découverte de ce squelette, lui-même situé dans une tombe Nazca. Tout de suite, un 'détail' saute aux yeux de l'archéologue, Christina Conlee, il manque en effet le crâne. Les dessins et emblèmes présents sur les poteries de ce peuple correspondent aux géoglyphes de la région, on est donc certains que les Nazca en sont les artistes. Les Nazca vivaient dans un milieu aride et très sec, mais cela ne les empêchait pas d'être de très bon agriculteurs, ils savaient dominer la nature. Comment s'y prenaient-ils pour tracer leurs géoglyphes ? Complément : nazca 32 commentaire(s)
Nan Madol Ruined city in Federated States of Micronesesia Nan Madol is an archaeological site adjacent to the eastern shore of the island of Pohnpei, now part of the Madolenihmw district of Pohnpei state in the Federated States of Micronesia in the western Pacific Ocean. Nan Madol was the capital of the Saudeleur Dynasty until about 1628.[3][note 1] The city, constructed in a lagoon, consists of a series of small artificial islands linked by a network of canals.[3] The site core with its stone walls encloses an area approximately 1.5 km long by 0.5 km wide and it contains nearly 100 artificial islets—stone and coral fill platforms—bordered by tidal canals. History[edit] Nan Madol was the ceremonial and political seat of the Saudeleur Dynasty, which united Pohnpei's estimated 25,000 people until about 1628.[3] Set apart between the main island of Pohnpei and Temwen Island, it was a scene of human activity as early as the first or second century AD.

Karmapolis Orphelins de laboratoire (par Liam Scheff) Pendant que des enfants meurent en direct à Besla devant les téléviseurs du monde entier, d’autres agonisent en silence entre les murs blancs d’une clinique, à l’abri des regards indiscrets. Pour ces orphelins séropositifs il n’y aura pas de couverture médiatique ou si peu. Un hebdomadaire, le New York Press, a néanmoins brisé le silence religieusement observé par la grande majorité des media sur la controverse des dissidents du SIDA en publiant un article décapant de Liam Scheff ; un journaliste engagé qui signe ici une enquête sur les études pharmacologiques menées à Washington sur des enfants abandonnés. Si les thèses des dissidents ou « rethinkers » sont maintenant bien connues, les milieux autorisés de la recherche sur le SIDA se gardent pourtant bien de répondre techniquement à leurs arguments qualifiés, au choix, de révisionnistes, conspirationnistes ou bio végétariens.

Giants' grave Aerial view of the Giant's grave of Sa Domu 'e S'Orcu in Siddi. Giants' tomb (Italian: Tomba dei giganti, Sardinian: Tumba de zigantes / gigantis) is the name given by local people and archaeologists to a type of Sardinian megalithic gallery grave built during the Bronze Age by the Nuragic civilization. They were collective tombs and can be found throughout Sardinia, with 800 being discovered there.[1] A stone cairn lies over the burial chambers, with some examples having a cup-shaped entrance similar to the court cairn tombs of Ireland. Types[edit] There are two general types of giants' tomb. In the more primitive slab-type giants tombs, the central slab is unmodified aside from the entrance that is cut through it at the base, or else there is a crude dolmen-like arrangement of 3 uncut rocks to form the entrance (Osono, Sortali, Lolghi, Pescaredda). The sepulchres have a characteristic rectangular plan with an apse. Geographical distribution of the Giant tombs in Sardinia See also[edit]
Cave of Crystal Giants In a nearly empty cantina in a dark desert town, the short, drunk man makes his pitch. Beside him on the billiards table sits a chunk of rock the size of home plate. Dozens of purple and white crystals push up from it like shards of glass. "Yours for $300," he says. "No? This remote part of northern Mexico, an hour or so south of Chihuahua, is famous for crystals, and paychecks at the local lead and silver mine, where almost everyone works, are meager enough to inspire a black market. Nothing compares with the giants found in Cueva de los Cristales, or Cave of Crystals. It takes 20 minutes to get to the cave entrance by van through a winding mine shaft.
Nuku Hiva Nuku Hiva (sometimes spelled "Nukahiva") is the largest of the Marquesas Islands in French Polynesia, and is therefore an overseas country of France in the Pacific Ocean. It was formerly also known as Île Marchand and Madison Island. Herman Melville wrote his book Typee based on his experiences in the Taipivai valley in the eastern part of Nuku Hiva. Robert Louis Stevenson's first landfall on his voyage on the Casco was at Hatihe'u, on the north side of the island, in 1888. Geography[edit] Coast[edit] Inland[edit] The central part of the island is a high plateau called To'ovi'i, covered primarily by a tall-grass prairie, on which experiments in cattle raising are taking place for the first time — 15 years ago all the cattle were feral and hunted with rifles. On the western edge of To'ovi'i rises Tekao, the island's highest peak, which reaches an elevation of 1224 m (4,016 ft). Administration[edit] Demographics[edit] The population in 2007 was 2,660.

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).
