but acknowledge that we've been lied to as to how our "antediluvian" history goes. This discovery and others like Gobekli Tepe in Turkey are waiting to burst into the common person's awareness once the information barricades are torn down.
No problem with the Sphinx at all. I know it was there before the Egyptians/Kemets (?)
The only question is what the real function of the pyramid was, just curious.
Göbekli Tepe was built by LSA 2. Better we bury it again then before it spreads more dark influence.
Just for info and because it is one of my favorite subjects. Old Greek civilization/buildings.
All 3 pics are from the book of Theofanis Manias "The unknown masterpieces of the Old Greeks" around 1960. I won't write more about that book as it is quite useless to everyone that doesn't speak Greek and I don't think that it has ever been translated in other languages.
The first two maps show how old cities/important places were invisibly connected to each other. The place where those cities or temples were located was not just a coincidence as it is nowadays. This guy and his team spent much time to gather all the info and to check the details before starting drawing lines on a map.
The triangle you see on the very top (right) connects 3 places (ΧΑΛΚΙΣ - ΘΗΒΑΙ - ΑΜΦΙΑΡΙΟΝ) and the long side is equal to 1,618/1,62 of the short ones (the golden ratio).
That the old Greek buildings speak "mathematics" is nothing new (not to a Greek person though). I tried to give a short example here, based on Manias' research. I haven't met anything on this planet (= using books and internet) that came close to that. It was not about only one building it was about the full known world at that time and almost everywhere where Greeks build something. Sure the pyramids were great and they are supposed to show some connection to some star constellation and so on, but still a totally different thing than connecting many smaller places on some part of a continent.
In fact it is not about the "Greeks" in nationalistic aspect, but about the preservation of the harmony, the symmetry, the goodness. Please don't confuse the Greeks from today with the Ancient Greeks. There are different species although born in the same geographical area.
The last pic shows the Greek numbers. Before Greece adopted the Arabic numerical system like every other country in the world, it was using letters for numbers. This was quite complicated, but it was also a way to give words - especially Toponyms (= Greek word for place name) a certain meaning through the number that was connecting this Toponym with other words whose added letters would have the same meaning. Many people tried and still try to give a meaning to some words by giving them meaningful numbers, especially darks to spread fear. I am quite sure that names were not chosen by coincidence at those times, but I am not sure that the meaning that Theofanis Manias gives to some words is right. I personally think that he mixed reality (Old Greek Names) with superstition exactly like many people do nowadays. In other words: Numerology is the combination of 2% truth and 98% fantasy.
