 PUBLISHER’S LETTER

New Oasis on the World Wide Web

B
y the time you read this, it will be
possible to visit our brand new At-
lantis Rising online archives. Just
go to our regular web site at At-
lantisRising.com and click on “Archives,”
or go directly to it by logging into “Atlan-
tisRisingMagazine.com.” Awaiting your
easy access now are all the articles and
many of the accompanying graphics for the
last ten issues, prior to this one (to read the
latest issue you will continue to need an ac-
tual printed or PDF copy). The content on
the web is free to all, though at some point,
we may reserve certain issues for members
only. Eventually we hope to be able
to post all of our back issues in this
manner, but it’s a big job and will
take awhile.
We are very excited about our
new web offering as it already is and
we think you will be, too. Not only
does this great new resource provide
the full text of all the articles, in-
cluding news from our “Early Rays”
sections, but it also includes all spe-
cial text emphasis (bold, italics, etc.)
to aid your reading comprehension.
(Previously, for technical reasons,
the articles in our archives section—
from our first 17 issues only—were
entirely in plain text, so book titles,
for instance, were indistinguishable
from the rest of the text). Moreover,
our new web site will provide you
with the opportunity to post comments on
articles. We are also tagging our text to
make our content more accessible to the
search engines and thus to more Internet
surfers looking for our kind of material.
These images show how particular is-
sues and articles are displayed, but there is
no substitute for actually visiting the site
and seeing for yourself. We also hope that
this project will make it easy for you to

like them to read. Don’t hesitate to pass
along the links to pages that you like. Also,
just by clicking on words in the “Tag
Cloud” at the bottom of the right-hand
column, you will easily be able to find various articles on the same, or a related, topic.
Of course it goes without saying (but I will say it anyway) that a tremendous amount of

Firewalkers and Code Writers
My second home is in Fiji where I’ve
watched the firewalkers many times (Re:
“Firewalkers,” A.R. #82). Fiji’s only para-
normal researcher, Dr. Robert Taylor, asked
me a few years ago to conduct an experiment
to determine how this stuff works. He’d
gather the walkers and I’d do the science.
While getting the materials, [I found] a book
by Dr. Claude Swanson The Synchronized
Universe in which he describes many of the
paranormal phenomena and then describes
how they work, using quantum mechanics.
We’ve become friends. We both graduated
from M.I.T., but he went on to get a Ph.D. in
particle physics from Princeton. Lo and be-
hold, somebody had already done that exact
experiment. Thermal sensors were attached
to the soles of the feet of the firewalkers and
the temperature recorded as they walked on
extremely hot rocks. The results were
astounding: the sensors recorded normal
body temperature!
(Re: “Easter Island’s Mystery Script.“ A.R.
#82) In the late 80s I took the Epigraphic So-
ciety’s initial translation of a Rongo Rongo
board to Easter Island, and it was read to the
council of the family elders. They thought it
to be a good translation for two reasons.
First, One translation flowed, as opposed to
all the others which approached gibberish.
Second, it contained at least one technique
for building twin-hulled canoes that non-
polynesians didn’t know about. We had sev-
eral Polynesian scholars commend the trans-
lation for breaking the Maori “code”… a
little like charades in print. Barry Fell was
the arch diffusionist of his day, so his work
was ignored.

Easter Island’s Mystery Script
Concerning the article by Robert M.
Schoch, Ph.D., and “Easter Island’s Mystery
Script.” (A.R. #82) I would like to remove
some of the mystery. I quote from the book
by French Radiestesists the following:
“In the book Essai de Radiesthesie Vibra-
toire, Chaumerie and De Belizal mention
that the statue on Easter Island emanates
“negative green.” They experienced [this]
with a model of the statue that within three

days mummified meat and reduced it to 25%
of its original volume. They concluded that
the function of the statues was probably to
protect against enemies. The authors report
also about tablets called “Keiti.” The photo
in the book shows that it has about 1000 sig-
natures/characters. Small tablets were worn
by women in their hair. The function of the
tablets was to protect against the negative
green of the statues. The authors themselves
have measured that. A photo of the tablet on
the ceiling of a room caused the disappear-
ance of the dangerous radiation. The effect
diminished with time. This is called “name
saturation.”
I tested the cover of Issue #82 and the ar-
ticle’s Easter Island Statues named “The
Moai” by Mr. Schoch and found an emana-
tion of negative vertical green from the top
of the head. The test had been made with a
“Fictive Cone Pendulum.” With the same
pendulum, I also tested the tablet’s name
“Rapanui’ by Chaumerie and De Belizal
“Keiti.” The test was also done on the photo-
graph of the tablet cover and the photograph
of the article tablet and I found the following
responding colors:
Horizontal : negative green, indigo and
ultra-violet
Vertical : None
The symbols are specifically designed to
cancel the effect of the vertical negative
green generated by the giant statues. The
combination of the color responses are re-
ferred to by Dr. Karim as BG3.
Unfortunately the referenced book is no
longer available, however information con-
cerning the Fictive Cone Pendulum, biosig-
natures, and biogeometry from Dr. Karim
are available from the following web sites:

Ancient Cities in the Forest
Reading “Ancient Cities in the Forest”
(A.R. #82), I recalled a Charles Berlitz book
(can’t remember the title) that contained a
picture of 4-8 pyramids in two rows and 4
giant pyramids (Egyptian in configuration).
A washed out area on one of the giant pyra-
mids showed an off-white color. The photo—
in black and white—was from an airplane
which spotted the wash-out area through
millennia of tropical overgrowth. A Landsat
photo in the same book showed the outline
of the pyramids in question in South
America.
Any rumors of Nazi strongholds in these
areas? Perhaps that is why exploration of
these remote areas remains unfunded. I note
the lack of aircraft/satellite photos of these
and other remote areas of the Earth.

Fate of the Watchers
I must take issue with Andrew Collins re-
garding his article, “The Fate of the
Watchers” (A.R. #81). He has attributed to
the Hebrew prophet Enoch concepts vastly
different from the versions of his writings to
which I have access. Mr. Collins does not
identify his source other than that it is an
“heretical Jewish work” and “from so-called
Enochian texts... found among the Dead Sea
Scrolls.” His wild speculations may be related
in a distorted way to the subject of Enoch’s
work, but they have a significantly different
meaning from either of the three versions
published in the legitimate resource book,
The Old Testament Pseudepigraphia -
Volume I, Apocalyptic Literature and Testa-
ments; edited by James H. Charlesworth for
Doubleday and Co. Inc., 1983. These writings
are not indicated to be either mythical or de-
ceptive, although they were not found suit-
able to be included among the Sacred Scrip-
tures. My reference is “I Enoch,” which is the
most detailed and complete version.
The story of human women giving birth
to wicked giants after having intercourse
with rebelling angels is summarized very
briefly in Genesis 6 of the Bible but is much

more comprehensive as Enoch has recorded
it. He tells in Section 6 that some “angels”
saw “the daughters of man” and wanted to
“beget us children.” “Semyaz, being their
leader”—his personal name is “Azaz’el”—
made his troop of angels “swear” that they
would “do the deed” and “they descended
into Ardis, which is the summit of Hermon”
or in another translation, “they descended in
the days of Jared on the summit of Mount
Hermon.” Then the twenty chiefs of the units
of ten are identified as angels with the suffix
“’el” after each of their names. So Azaz’el led
a group of two hundred physical beings,
called collectively “the Nefilim” by the au-
thor Zecharia Sitchin and translated as
“Those Who Fell Down,” This title definitely
does not refer to the “giant offspring” of the
fallen anges and human women, as Andrew
Collins states.
In section 7 Enoch explains that those an-
gels who came down to Earth and chose
wives for themselves, “...they taught
them...medicine, incantations...and taught
them about plants. And the women became
pregnant and gave birth to great giants...
These giants consumed the produce of all the
people and the people detested feeding them.
So the giants turned against the people in
order to eat them...and their flesh was de-
voured the one by the other, and they drank
blood...” These vicious hybrids of mankind
with rebellious angels attacked mankind and
fought to the death with one another, cer-
tainly justifying their elimination by the De-
luge. All the people corrupted by “ ’els” died
as well.
The Nefilim, or fallen anges, however,
were not destroyed. They are immortal: They
are to be terminated only at the end of the
world. So they had to seek safety and protec-
tion from the comet impact which caused
the Deluge. Enoch tells us that they confined
themselves in “holes” and “pits,” or as we
would understand in caverns excavated deep
in the crust of the earth. These are the NTR
or “Watchers” and they are still in the Earth
watching and misdirecting mankind.
Andrew Collins’ article needs substantial
corrections.

The Tyranny of Political Correctness
It is my conviction that our era of “polit-
ical correctness” has done more long-range
damage than it has fostered short-term good.
Therefore, I would like to remind others of
the potential harm that was released upon
society in the misdirected belief that
“speaking no evil, would result in the banish-
ment of evil.” Anytime that efforts are made
to control thought or speech, then both
thoughts and speech become threatened.
Truthful thought has become a perceived
threat. The fear of speaking freely has be-

come a pandemic. I sincerely hope that it is
not too late to reverse the direction which
our nation has chosen, and that honest
speaking of one’s convictions can be restored
in our country.
Each issue of Atlantis Rising sheds new
light upon the harm imposed upon concepts
and ideas which attempt to breech new hori-
zons. I do not see the difference between the
imposition of “acceptable” thought and
speech in the public domain, than that being
imposed upon thinkers of new ideas in the
realms of higher learning and science. Polit-
ical Correctness is in fact nothing less than
Thought Control. It does not change in na-
ture whether it is imposed upon us in public
or in science.

A s the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico grew

worse over the early summer, it was diffi-
cult to imagine how the vast pool of brown
sticky goo could ever be disposed of. As in
the human digestive system, at least some of
the answer may yet come from bacteria, what
might be called friendly bacteria.
Researchers at Oregon State University
say they have discovered a new strain of
Pseudomonas aeruginosa—a common bac-
teria that researchers in China learned how
to use several years ago to deal with soils
contaminated with oil. The new strain, called
“NY3,” it is believed, will help to degrade pol-
ycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, or PAHs –
environmental pollutants that are one of the
most harmful aspects of oil spills.
Of course, the deeper problems, which
the hemorrhaging oil has seemed to repre-
sent, appear likely to remain for a while.
Those of a more metaphysical turn of mind
have not failed to notice the obvious sym-
bolism of an opening into the underworld
through which billowed plumes of darkness.
The ancient Greek myth of Orpheus comes to
mind. He pursued his kidnapped sweetheart
Eurydice into Hell and brought her back.
Where is Orpheus, when you need him? It
will be interesting to see if any modern hero
has what it takes to rescue our lost purity;
and if it is given back to us, will we be able to
keep it? Orpheus could not.

The Tomb of Youza Asouph in Shrinagar
RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION’S
UGLY TYRANNY UNABATED
eligious persecution, over alleged movie, Jesus in India, filmmaker Paul Davids,
R heresy, remains one of the great threats at considerable personal risk, documented
to world peace—to say nothing of freedom the tomb’s purported site (see A.R. #74).
and enlightenment—yet the international
press often seems more interested in polit-
ical correctness than in the systematic
murder of small groups whose unpopular
views have made them targets. Just as the
Nazis murdered jews while much of the
world looked the other way, the same bloody
practices still flourish today in many parts of
the world.
In January of 2008, Atlantis Rising re-
ported on “The Plight of the Yezidi” (A.R.
#67) an obscure Sufi sect in Iraq on the
verge of physical extinction through fre-
quent masacres by majority Muslims. We
have also written about the difficulties facing
Tibetan Buddhists, as well as the Chinese
government’s repressive moves against the
Fulang Gang sect. Genocide in the Darfur
province of Sudan has also been widely re-
ported elsewhere, but scant attention has
been paid to the situation in Pakistan where,
in May, 90 members of the Ahmadiyya
Muslim sect were slaughtered by the local
muslim majority in two mosques. The issue,
ostensibly, was blasphemy.
The beliefs found so offensive included
the Ahmadiyya teaching that Jesus survived
the crucifixion and traveled to Kashmir
where he ultimately died, and whose remains
are said to be in the tomb of Yuz Asouph in
Srinagar, the Kashmiri capitol. In his recent

“It is simply beyond belief,” Davids told
Atlantis Rising, “but sadly true, that people
in Pakistan are being slaughtered for relig-
ious beliefs that don’t conform to main-
stream Islam, and that there are [criminal]
laws against so-called ‘blasphemy’.”
According to Wikipedia, “Ahmadis (fol-
lowers of the Ahmadiyya religious move-
ment) have been subject to various forms of
persecution and discrimination since the
movement’s inception in 1889. The Ahma-
diyya faith emerged from the Sunni tradition
of Islam, and its adherents believe in all the
five pillars and articles of faith required of
Muslims. The Ahmadis are active translators
of the Qur’an and proselytizers for the faith;
converts to Islam in many parts of the world
first discovered Islam through the Ahmadis.
However, in many Islamic countries, the Ah-
madis have been defined as heretics and non-
Muslim and subjected to persecution and
often systematic oppression.”
Throughout Earth’s long, bloody past,
nothing has caused the shedding of more in-
nocent blood than religious intolerance. It is
a problem which remains today, very far from
solution.

Ahmadiyya Muslims and their beliefs visit:

Tomb of Isaac Newton at
Westminister Abbey
Newton, the
Alchemist,
Resurrected
A tlantis Rising has reported several times
on emerging developments in the field of
invisibility...or should we say ‘disappearing
developments?’ It is now coming to light, so
to speak, that Star Trek-like invisibility
cloaks are in the works, whether you can see
them or not.
Not long ago we learned that some high
tech methods using meta-materials could
make objects vanish from certain wave-
lengths of light, but we were not talking
about light visible to the naked eye. New
techniques, however, are now successfully
manipulating visible light to make objects
virtually disappear.
Previously researchers at Imperial Col-
lege in London and at Duke University in
North Carolina had used exotic materials
with remarkable electromagnetic properties
unlike anything found in nature to redirect
microwaves. Now, at the University of Cali-
fornia, Berkeley, researchers have made a
special carpet which when covering a small
object still appears to be flat. The method, we
learn, could be scaled up to cover larger ob-
jects. Even difficulties of viewing from partic-
ular angles, it is reported, are being over-
come.
The technology, it is hoped, will someday
be applicable in battlefield situations. Some
believe the same idea could be used to pro-
tect buildings and people from dangerous
waves of other kinds, such as in the winds or
tides.

EARLY RAYS
I saac Newton, as alchemist, may be a little
better understood now. For a long time
that side of the great scientist’s life was
largely ignored by a modern academic estab-
lishment loathe to concede much of value in
the esoteric wisdom of the ancients. Now,
though, thanks to the efforts of William
Newman, history professor at Indiana Univer-
sity Bloomington, that situation could be
changing.
In fact, the National Science Foundation
has supported a Newman-led study into The
Chymistry of Isaac Newton. As a result a new
understanding of the old science, which
aimed to change base metals into gold, find
the elixir of life, the philosopher’s stone, and
other things, is emerging.
The man who invented calculus, trans-
formed the field of optics, and discovered the
law of gravity was for 30 years a committed
alchemist who took seriously many ideas
today regarded as sheer superstition. His
ideas about optics, in particular, owe a great
debt to alchemy. Hopefully the new study
will introduce a new generation to the deeper
meaning of an ancient wisdom, once misun-
derstood by a shallow and materialistic
modern science.
Twenty-three alchemical documents ed-
ited by Newton have been posted on a new
web site: http://webapp1.dlib.indiana.edu/

Dark Matter’s
Very Existence
Questioned
T he “dark side” of the universe may not be
such a big deal after all. In fact, it may
not even exist. That is the startling claim
made by British physicists after reexamining
the math behind much of the current “stan-
dard model” of the universe. A new analysis
of measurements taken by NASA of Big Bang
heat radiation in 2001 has shown that the
heat waves may be far smaller than previ-
ously thought.
For decades scientists have believed that
most of the universe—as much as 96%—is
made up of a mysterious something which
they have called dark energy and which
powers the expansion of the universe—said
to be happening rapidly. A few scientists, not-
ably astronomer Halton Arp, have quarreled
with much in the so-called standard model,
but that has not prevented most scientists
and their friends in the media from assuming
that the existence of dark matter had been ir-
refutably proven. Now they may have to eat
their words.
Respected physicists at Durham Univer-
sity in the U.K. have declared that calcula-
tions on which the standard model is based
are fatally flawed, which suggests that dark
matter may not even exist. The implication is
that the universe is not expanding as fast as
had been believed and could even grind to a
halt. Dr. Robert Massey of the the Royal As-
tronomical Society, which published the
findings, told Britain’s Daily Telegraph news-
paper, “This would challenge greatly our as-
sumptions about the long-term future of the
universe.”
It remains to be seen what impact the
new findings will have on other related no-
tions, such as the “big bang,” black holes,
etc., but it is clear that the shockwaves ema-
nating from the new investigation could al-
ready be shaking the foundations of modern
physics. Indeed, many physicists may soon be
forced to forsake the dark side, but that does
not sound like bad news.

the Coliboaia cave in Romania were pro-
ducing sophisticated portraits of various ani-
mals including a horse, bear heads, and a
rhinoceros. The artists used black paint. The
artwork is even older than the masterpieces
previously found in other European caves
like those at Lascaux and Chauvet.
The discovery was announced in June
and created a considerable stir in archaeo-
logical circles around the world. Jean
Clottes, a well-known specialist in such art,
says the authenticity of the site is certain.
Accounting for the high level of skill dis-
played in ancient cave art continues to be a
significant headache for science. Artists as
recently as the middle ages were incapable of

Very Old Mammal Hair Extracted from Amber

M any who saw the Steven Spielberg movie Jurassic Park will
recall that the DNA used to clone the dinosaurs which
proved so problematic was found in amber deposits. Now, real
life scientists say they have found, encased in amber, mammal
hairs which they say are 100 million year old.
These, they say, are the oldest three-dimensional hairs ever
discovered; but, they also say, hair was, mysteriously, much the
same back then as now, though, perhaps not as glamorous. The
big question is why hasn’t it evoloved? Previously 2D hair im-
prints from the Jurassic have been found in carbon deposits.
Amber—fossilized tree resin—is a much better preserver. The
hairs were found in southwest France.
So far no cloning experiments with the hairs are planned.

Superstition, indeed, works, is the con-
clusion of a new German study. Researchers
used a number of tests to determine whether
or not people’s performance in several dex-

a statistically significant number. The paper,

peared in the journal Psychological Science.
Of course, scientist, Rupert Sheldrake,
has done many experiments to prove the re-

phenomena considered to be superstition by
mainstream science. But so far as we know,
orthodoxy persists in denying such things. If
superstition is belief without evidence, could

 REPORT FROM THE FRONT
Tracking the News of the Coming Energy Revolution
Cayce Readings “Crystal-ized” Energy Invention
BY
JEANE
MANNING
T
his month’s column is a celebration
of the life of Dr. Wingate Lam-
bertson, who died last month, mere
weeks before his 90th birthday. His
wife Eileen passed on earlier this year. They
had chosen Florida for most of their retire-
ment years, so his final month was also shad-
owed by news of oil drifting toward familiar
beaches.
Before I get to his story, I want to men-
tion the latest DVD in the “Energy from the
Vacuum” series—the story of a cold-heat,
zero-fuel engine system. There’s an inter-
view with the late Ieuan Thomas, who was
chief engineer for a company called Designex
Inc. His engineering team invented the revo-
lutionary energy system.
On Tom Bearden’s website, there’s a 1968
Polaroid photo of Thomas inspecting the
unique generating device. William Doyle,
whose father provided financing for De-
signex, supplied the photo to Bearden and a
letter about it. The Designex team had re-
moved their furnace and installed the ma-
chine in the basement of the Designex offices
at 49 Merton Street, Toronto, Canada.
Doyle’s letter describes an incident
sparked—literally—by complaints from a
corporation farther down Merton Street. Fe-
male students, learning how to operate cash
registers, had received static electricity
shocks, so Toronto Hydro responded to the
complaint. The scientists at Designex were
sympathetic, Doyle recalls, but even the in-
ventor didn’t know whether the static elec-
tricity was connected to the operation of his
machine.
On the afternoon of the Merton Street in-
cident, Doyle showed up and saw an angry,
red-faced utility company supervisor who
had sent for a flat-bed truck and a work
crew. They confronted Doyle’s father,
Thomas, and other Designex scientists and
associates; then the crew removed their To-
ronto Hydro power meter, fuse box, and all
of the utility company’s wiring from the
building—trying to shut off all electricity
that could be used inside the building. The
utility crew’s attempts were futile, Doyle re-
ports.
Instead, lights, radio, refrigerator, and
other appliances continued to work. This en-
raged the Hydro supervisor, Doyle recalls,
because Designex men were joking about the
utility crew’s inability to shut off the elec-
tricity and bragging that the fuel-less ma-
chine could produce as much power as a
small Niagara Falls. It took several hours for

and his Cermet
the utility company to cut down their con-
crete utility pole and remove wiring from the
building. Doyle remembers the large truck,
loaded with pole and other Hydro apparatus,
driving away into the dusk.
Among the witnesses to this spectacle
was a wealthy, influential real estate devel-
oper whose brother was the federal Minister
of Commerce for Canada at the time. It was
quite a power conflict, Doyle comments
wryly. He provides names and further de-
tails. Under the title Cold Heat From
Canada, a film trailer of a 1973 interview
with an executive of a respected heating/
refrigeration company gives the story further
credibility. Skeptical of claims from his De-
signex customer, he had examined the cold-
heat machine with his own instruments. One
part of it was heavily frosted (a characteristic
of some energy-from-the-cosmos or Radiant
Energy devices today). The former skeptic
eventually declared that the machine proves
that existing refrigeration systems are obso-
lete.
Atlantis Readings Changed Dr.
Lambertson’s Life
I wondered why I decided to write this
month’s column about an invention whose
inventor didn’t live to see it vindicated—Win
Lambertson’s World into Neutrinos process.
Then today I received confidential informa-
tion from another scientist, whose very re-
cent small-scale but precise experiments,
done in collaboration with a colleague,
“prove that a ‘field’ exists in space which can
do work on a mechanical system to increase
its kinetic energy when acceleration is
present.” The cautious experimenter specu-
lated: “Possibly, this field is a consequence of
the ether Einstein alluded to in 1920.” (A
patent is pending on the device used in this
new experiment, so no more will be said
about it at this time.)
Coincidentally, acceleration—in Lam-
bertson’s case, acceleration of electron
charges—was also the vital part of Lam-
bertson’s experiments. Acceleration was the
factor that he believed enabled the system to
tap into the background energy of space and
therefore added excess energy to the output
of his system.
Seeing the possibility of a new energy
source, Lambertson wanted to bring clean
energy and jobs to replace coal mining in
Kentucky but didn’t ever get the funding that
could have hired a team of specialists to help
him refine and further develop his solid-state
“zero-point energy” converter.
Despite the slowed progress, there are in-
spiring aspects to Win Lambertson’s saga. He
was a former executive director of Ken-
tucky’s Science and Technology Commission
who overcame his academic skepticism about
extraordinary claims that energy freely avail-
able from space could be tapped for useful
work. Looking further outside the academic
box, he also studied the role of consciousness
in energy inventions. In 1995 he wrote a
brief essay “Atlanteans and Consciousness
Raising” which cited the book Edgar Cayce
on Atlantis. Cayce was a famous psychic
whose visions included the ancient continent
of Atlantis.

Notes from
Michael A. Cremo

Modern Humans Over Three Million Years Ago
F
or a long time, I have been saying that the Laetoli footprints provide evidence that
humans like us existed over three million years ago. New scientific research on the
prints supports this conclusion of mine. Let us first look at the history of the Laetoli
discoveries. Then I will summarize the latest research and analyze what it means.
In 1979, a team led by Mary Leakey was doing archaeological research at Laetoli, in the
East African nation of Tanzania, about 30 miles north of Olduvai Gorge. One day, several
members of the team were playing around, throwing pieces of dry elephant dung at each
other. Andrew Hill, of the Kenya National Museum, noticed some marks on the ground. They
turned out to be fossil footprints. Some of them looked humanlike. The prints were found in
layers of solidified volcanic ash. Potassium-dating yielded an age of at least 3.6 million years
for these ash deposits (tuffs). So 3.6 million years ago, someone with humanlike feet was
walking around in Africa.
But how humanlike were
the footprints? A report by
Mary Leakey appeared in Na-
tional Geographic magazine
(“Footprints in the Ashes of
Time,” 1979, vol. 155, pp. 446-
457). About the creature that
made the footprints, Mary
Leakey said “the form of his
foot was exactly like ours” (p.
453). Dr. Louise Robbins, a
footprint expert from the Uni-
versity of North Carolina, was
part of Leakey’s team. In the
National Geographic report (p.
452), Robbins is quoted as
The Laetoli Footprints
saying about the footprints:
“They looked so human, so
modern, to be found in tuffs so old.” The British physical anthropologist M. H. Day carefully
studied the prints. One of his reports (“Hominid locomotion—
from Taung to the Laetoli footprints”) was published in the
book Hominid Evolution: Past, Present, and Future (edited by
P. V. Tobias, 1985, pp. 115-128). In this report, Day said that the
Laetoli footprints “showed close similarities with the anatomy of
the feet of the modern human habitually unshod, arguably the
normal human condition” (p. 121). Physical anthropologist R.
H. Tuttle said in one of his studies (“Evolution of hominid bi-
pedalism,” Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of
London, B, 292, pp. 89-94): “The shapes of the prints are indis-
tinguishable from those of striding, habitually barefoot hu-
mans.” Finally, paleontologist Time White is quoted in the book
Lucy (D. C. Johanson and M. A. Edey, 1981, p. 250) as saying
this about the Laetoli footprints: “Make no mistake about it.
They are like modern human footprints. If one were left in the
sand of a California beach today and a four-year-old were asked
what it was, he would instantly say that somebody had walked Mary
there. He wouldn’t be able to tell it from a hundred other prints Leakey
on the beach, nor would you. The external morphology is the

same.”
So the shape of the footprints is exactly like that of modern human
beings. But what about the gait? Recently, a group of scientists headed by
David A. Raichlen, of the department of anthropology at the University of Ari-
zona (Tucson campus), published a study in the online science journal PLoS ONE
(10.1371/journal.pone.0009769). The study deals specifically with what the Laetoli foot-
prints say about the gait of the creatures that made them. Is the gait like that of modern
human beings (upright striding) or more like that of chimpanzees (bent knees, shuffling)? To
determine the answer, the researchers had humans walk barefoot across a bed of sand (pre-
pared to resemble the Laetoli sediments). Some of them walked as humans normally do.
Some of them walked with bent knees, like chimps. All the features of the resulting prints
were carefully measured, especially the depth of the prints. The researchers then compared
the results with the Laetoli prints, which many scientists attribute to the apeman Australo-
pithecus afarensis. David Raichlen said, “Based on previous analyses of the skeletons of Aus-
tralopithecus afarensis, we expected that the Laetoli footprints would resemble those of
someone walking with a bent knee, bent hip gait typical of chimpanzees, and not the striding
gait normally used by modern humans. But to our surprise, the Laetoli footprints fall com-
pletely within the range of normal human footprints” (retrieved March 23, 2010 from ).
So what do we have here? We
have evidence that the Laetoli foot-
prints are like those of modern hu-
mans, in terms of both their shape
and gait. But none of the above men-
tioned scientists believed that the Australopithecus
Laetoli footprints were made by hu- afarensis
mans like us. Why not? According to
their theories, humans like us had
not evolved yet. Supporters of the
current evolutionary theories of
human origins believe that humans
like us first came into existence be-
tween one hundred and two hundred
thousand years ago. Before that,
there were (supposedly) only more
primitive apelike ancestors of
modern humans. So according to
these scientists and their colleagues,
who actually did make the Laetoli
prints? They have various theories.
Mary Leakey, for example, believed
that the footprints were made by
some kind of apeman who had feet
exactly like those of modern human
beings. That is an interesting idea,
but there is no skeletal evidence to
support it. We have the skeletons of
the apemen who existed at that time,
three or four million years ago. And
none of them have foot bones like
those of modern human beings.
Their toes are longer than modern
human toes. In particular, the
apemen of that time period have
long first toes that can extend out to
the side, sort of like the thumb of
the modern human hand. Alto-
gether, the feet of the apemen from
that time (Australopithecus, Ardi-
pithecus, Kenyanthropus, etc.) re-
semble those of apes. Actually, the
only creature known to science today
(from skeletal remains) that has a
foot exactly like that of a modern
human being is, in fact, the modern
human species.

our results show that Laetoli hominins walked with humanlike kinematics, we still cannot be
sure which hominin taxon made the footprints.” Hominins are the biological group that con-
tains the modern human species and its supposed evolutionary ancestors.
I propose that it was humans like us who made the Laetoli footprints, for the following
reasons: (1) the shape of the footprints is identical to the shape of modern human footprints;
(2) at present, skeletal remains show that the only creature known to science that has such a
foot is a modern human being; (3) the Laetoli footprints show a gait just like that of modern
human beings; (4) and finally, there is skeletal evidence for anatomically modern humans ex-
isting at roughly the same time that the Laetoli footprints were made, about 3.6 million years
ago.
For example, in 1880 the Italian geologist Giuseppe Ragazzoni reported finding anatomi-
cally modern human skeletons in a Middle Pliocene formation at Castenedolo, Italy (Com-
mentari dell’ Ateneo di Brescia April 4, pp.120–128). The Middle Pliocene period goes back to
between three and four million years ago. Anatomically modern human bones were also

I
n May 2010 Dr. Lora Little, filmaker
Stan Praciak, Kimberly Prachniak, and I
spent over a week in the Bimini area.
Our primary purpose for this trip was
relaxation and a vacation, but several days
were highlighted by excursions to several key
locations around Bimini (up to 10-miles
away) where we were shown several newly
found underwater spots by Eslie Brown. We
also took the time to visit several places on
land, such as the Fountain of Youth, which
we had oddly never seen while there. We also
took a close look at a plane we believe had
disappeared into the Bermuda Triangle and
had been featured on a National Geographic
show. In addition, we examined the extensive
and impressive wreck of a DC-6 found under-
water to the east of Bimini.
Here are some of the key things we
filmed, and examined at various locations:

The “Rectangles”
On the one day we had in the area with
little or no winds (the day we arrived), Lora
and I took our boat to the deep area called
the “Rectangles,” which is a widespread area
of uniformly arranged square and rectan-
gular formations lying on the bottom at 100
feet. The coral encrusted stone formations
are found on a mile-long swath about 200-
feet wide. They were first identified by ar-
chaeologist Bill Donato in 2006 who found
them using side-scan sonar. The side-scan
sonar images of these look very similar to the
few sonar images that have been released
from the famous “Cuba” site some years ago.
Our one dive at the rectangles, conducted
with the History Channel over a year ago,
was necessarily brief but pointed to these odd
stone piles as probably being man-made.

 ANCIENT MYSTERIES
Does the Sudarium Cloth in Oviedo, Spain
Prove the Turin Shroud Is Genuine and that
the Resurrection of Jesus Actually Occurred?
• BY PHILIP COPPENS
O
ne of the most controversial relics
ever, the Turin Shroud, is said to be
the burial cloth of Jesus. For some,
it is the ultimate relic, proving the
reality of his resurrection. For academics, it
remains an enigma, since the image em-
bedded on the cloth has never been fully re-
produced. For others, it is nothing more
than a medieval fake, for which a 1988
carbon-dating result provides the only evi-
dence. And yet, recent research has indicated
that the swatches taken for dating the shroud
came from sections which had been rewoven
into the original material as part of a med-
ieval repair campaign, implying that the date
of the original shroud material remains to be
determined.
The Shroud, therefore, acts very much
like a mirror: if you believe in Christ and the
Resurrection, you are more likely to believe
it is genuine. If you are an atheist, you will
likely adhere to the official conclusion that
it’s a medieval fake. As for the official posi-
tion of the Church: there is none. Individual
Christians are left to believe or not. There is,
of course, also a scientific position to con-
sider, but, alas, it turns out that the “scien-
tific position” is not very scientific. It relies
on the 1988 carbon-dating, which placed the
shroud’s origins between 1260 and 1390, but
one very important problem remains: there
24 ATLANTIS RISING • Number 83
is no conclusive evidence that the material
submitted for carbon-dating originates from
the actual shroud. Indeed, mysteriously, for
the key part of the sample taking process—
in which pieces of the shroud were placed in
containers to be sent out for analysis—the
Vatican, for unknown reasons, demanded
that the video cameras, set up to record the
entire process—this key sequence in partic-
ular—be turned off.
If this were a forensic investigation for an
actual trial, the carbon-dating results would
be inadmissible in court. That would mean
we would have to rely on other evidence,
most, if not all, of which suggests that the
shroud is much older than the fourteenth
century. It is known, for example, that there
is pollen present which shows the Shroud
was once in Palestine. We know the weaving
technique is contemporary with Jesus. And
we know there is genuine blood on the
shroud, blood group AB, rare in Europe, but
common in the Middle East. Moreover, the
position of the hands is consistent with a
crucifixion. There are many other examples,
and some scientists now argue the carbon-
dating—being the odd-one out—should be
treated with skepticism. Few, though, dare
to point the finger of suspicion directly to
the Vatican, instead arguing that other prob-
lems with the tests might have occurred.
The story of the Shroud has inspired
dozens of books and documentaries, most of
which treat it in isolation. What is little
known, but completely true, is that the
shroud has a little brother: the Oviedo su-
darium, which has been residing in Spain for
more than a millennium.
The Oviedo Shroud or sudarium is a
bloodstained sweat cloth, believed to have
been wrapped around the head of Jesus after
his death—as mentioned in the Gospel of
John. Unlike the Turin Shroud, it does not
show an image, merely blood marks and the
like. Interest in the Oviedo sudarium came
about when Mgr. Ricci visited Oviedo in 1965.
He was, in fact, the first to suggest that there
was a correspondence between the stains on
the cloth of Oviedo and those found on the
Shroud’s facial area. It would take another
two decades before a local organization could
be formed to begin a series of scientific tests
to determine the veracity of the Gospels.
The Oviedo Shroud was meant to be used
only for a short period. The linen is composed
of taffeta ligaments with the threads twisted
in the form of a Z, which is the simplest form
of weaving. It is fairly coarse, inexpensive
cloth, unlike the Turin Shroud, which would
have been intended to remain about the dead
person’s body for a year or so, after which the
bones would have been collected for place-
ment in an ossuary. Unlike the Turin Shroud,
the sudarium has no image; it is stained only

Ancient
Precision
Engineer and author
Christopher Dunn finds ancient
precision that should not exist
(from Lost Technologies of
Ancient Egypt)
• BY ARLAN ANDREWS
W
hat researcher Christopher Dunn has accomplished in his
new book Lost Technologies of Ancient Egypt (Inner Tra-
ditions/Bear, 2010) and in his previous work, The Giza
Power Plant, is more than a paradigm shift; it is more of a
paradigm seismic event. Because once a person with a manufacturing
or machining background—engineer, technician, machinist, ar-
tisan—reads and understands what Dunn has discovered and ana-
lyzed in ancient Egyptian stonework, that person will never look at
ancient Egyptians the same way ever again. That reader will become
skeptical of portrayals of ancient Egyptians as primitives in any sense.
That reader will begin to analyze every new Egyptian archaeological
discovery, to see what else conventional Egyptologists have over-
looked. That reader will become part of the new paradigm.
In these pages, Chris Dunn demonstrates an underlying system of
incredible precision in the machining, layout, and positioning of both
individual objects and groups of features, ranging from the toolmark
details in the “Rose Red Rosetta Stone of Abu Roash” to the symme-
tries of the giant heads of Ramses at the temples in Luxor, to the
layout of the column capitals of the Great Hypostyle Hall at Den-
derah, to the base of the Great Pyramid itself. Thanks to this work,
the modern reader sits back in awe and admiration of the Egyptian
geniuses of five thousand years ago. The ancient artifacts contain

Christopher Dunn is well known to the readers of Atlantis Rising.
His many investigations of the fantastic technologies of the ancients
have been among our most popular features and constituted a major
part of our bestselling book Forbidden History (Inner Traditions/
Bear, 2005). Now Dunn has produced a new book focussing on the
extraordinary technical achievements of the ancient Egyptians.
What follows is from the foreword by professional engineer Arlan
Andrews.—Editor

amazing messages, but the stones cannot speak for themselves. This
book speaks for them.
In November 2008, I accompanied Mr. Dunn and others to what
some have called “the Lost Pyramid” at Abu Roash, some ten kilome-
ters northwest of Giza. I was anxious to see the rose-colored granite
piece that the author had described to me years before, and was an-
ticipating seeing the compound radial cuts and distinguishing tool-
marks. I was not disappointed. To any technophile, this one cut stone
challenges the arguments made for primitive tools and primitive peo-
ples. More than any other artifact, it embodies an ancient “language”
that still speaks to modern engineers. I immediately dubbed it “The
Rose Red Rosetta Stone of Abu Roash.”
I called the stone a “Rosetta” because its discovery reminded me
of another paradigm-changing artifact: in 1799, Napoleon’s soldiers
found a curious object embedded in a wall of an Egyptian village.
Their original report, “A Report on a Stone Found in the Village of
Rosetta,” describes a black rock slab inscribed with three languages,
one of them being ancient Greek, the others the unknown Egyptian
hieroglyphic writing and the cursive or “demotic” Egyptian writing.
Reading the Greek portion, the antiquarian Champollion was able to
translate the names of the Pharaohs—written within cartouches—
and thence the rest of the hieroglyphic writing itself. He opened up
an eventual understanding of the millions of carved figures deco-
rating the ancient temples and tombs of the Nile. Nobody would ever
again look at the hieroglyphic carvings as mere magical, mystical fig-
ures but would read theThetranslations

The Rosetta stone thus facilitated
moderns who looked back at ancient Egyptians. Nothing would ever
be the same. I maintain that this book has accomplished a similar
feat, every bit as meaningful to an understanding of ancient Egypt, if
not more so. Once understood, Dunn’s discoveries will forever
change the perception of the serious researcher.
In a similar manner to Champollion’s reading ancient Greek and
comparing it to the unknown hieroglyphic figures, researcher Chris-
topher Dunn was able to “read” the machine-cut tool marks on the
Abu Roash stone and compare them to those made by modern tools
capable of the same operations. With years of experience and a

trained eye for such details, and armed with the proper paradigmatic
perspective, Dunn was able to recognize at once what it meant to
produce a stone with a curved cut some 37 feet in diameter and to re-
produce that cut in small, uniform steps across a three-foot width—
over 700 nearly identical radial tool cuts! This feat is simply not
achievable by human hand alone, using any known tools.
Such tool marks require at the very least a large saw blade or
cutting tool and sophisticated fixtures to produce the steps between
cuts. To suggest that the primitive tools ascribed to the ancient
Egyptians could have produced anything like these markings is ridic-
ulous. In my opinion, this machined stone by itself demonstrates the
existence of sophisticated tooling that did not exist again until the
1900s.
To the modern engineer, machinist, or toolmaker, the tool marks
on the Rose Red Rosetta Stone of Abu Roash are proof enough that
the ancient Egyptians possessed technologies not replicated until the
twentieth century—if even then. But Lost Technologies of Ancient
Egypt shows more examples, each of which have similar impact—the
Ramses heads in Luxor, the carvings and columns at Dendera—
further reinforcing the genius of the ancient machinists, engineers,
designers, and planners. Taken together, they represent arguments
in stone that refute current Egyptological conclusions.
When civilization fails for any reason, metals of all kinds become
precious commodities. They become knives, spear points, scrapers,
fishhooks, even plows. Ancient Egypt underwent numerous uphea-
vals caused by droughts, earthquakes, civil wars, religious strife, and
foreign invasions. During the times of collapse, the advanced metal
tools that the ancient Egyptians used were probably disassembled,
cut apart, or melted down. What wasn’t immediately used would cor-
rode and disappear after thousands of years. And perhaps some other
advanced technology was also employed, the remnants of which we
wouldn’t recognize today.

 THE OTHER SIDE
Many Great Composers Have
Drawn Their Inspiration
from Higher Dimensions
• BY JOHN CHAMBERS
O
n Wednesday, May 5, 2010, in a
Live From Lincoln Center/PBS-TV
concert commemorating the 200th
anniversary of the birth of com-
posers Felix Mendelssohn and Robert Schu-
mann, the renowned music-making trio of
Emanuel Ax (piano), Yo-Yo Ma (cello), and It-
zhak Perlman (violin), gave the audience
more than it bargained for when they dis-
cussed the life of Schumann, one of the
world's great composers and music critics.
They revealed that the German composer
believed he had two spirit guides, one he
called “Fiery,” and the other he called “Cold,”
who provided him with the inspiration he
needed to write the more fiery and the colder
parts of his compositions.
Compellingly and unabashedly, the trio of
world-class musicians pointed out parts of
Schumann's music—like the 1837 Fant-
iestücke, Opus 73, No. 3—that the composer
believed he created with the help of what the
three Lincoln Center virtuosi called “his
imaginary friends.”
Robert Schumann (1810-1856) was born
in Zwickau, Germany. As a boy he displayed
both musical and literary talent. After much
tormented soul-searching, he chose to be a
composer. Schumann was an iconic Ro-
mantic composer in the age of Romanticism,
often creating works that, while carefully
structured, also contained forward-looking
“stream of consciousness” elements.
34 ATLANTIS RISING • Number 83
1956 stamp from East Germany memorializes
Robert Schumann
Of Schumann’s overall achievement, Hu-
manities Web writes: “Robert Schumann’s
early piano compositions, many of which
were played by his wife Clara, are the most
original and daring of his works . . . . while
his great orchestral works remain closer to
the traditional Classical forms of Haydn, Mo-
zart, and Beethoven, he is regarded as a tal-
ented, but not masterful, composer. Nor was
he successful as a composer of operas. It is
in his piano music and his songs—Carnival
(‘Dainty Scenes on Four Notes’) in partic-
ular—that he accomplished his greatest
work.”
The ostensible spirits “Fiery” and “Cold”
had first entered Schumann’s consciousness
during a relatively sunny period in his life.
In 1853, however, darkness began to de-
scend on this genius whose family had a his-
tory of bipolar disease and suicide. Schu-
mann attended séances and came to believe
the spirit of Beethoven was unsuccessfully
trying to contact him. He imagined he was
being dogged by the spirit of Schubert, who
wanted him to finish Schubert's Unfinished
Symphony. The note “A” sounded constantly
in Schumann’s ears; this may have been tin-
nitus, but it was a curse to the composer in
that it seemed to generate strange sympho-
nies all by itself. Spirits other than Fiery
and Cold (and that of Mendelssohn) began to
furnish Schumann with musical themes; he
passed one on to Brahms, who set it to piano
variations. For a while the composer became
extremely lucid—and then he became con-
vinced he was going crazy. Finally Schu-
mann entered a heightened manic phase
where his angelic visions metamorphosed
into demonic visions. He tried to commit
suicide by throwing himself into the ice-cold
Rhine but was rescued, quite by accident, by
passing boatmen. This experience pushed
him over the edge. Schumann voluntarily
committed himself to the asylum for the in-
sane where he was to spend the last two
years of his life.
In Live From Lincoln Center, musicians
Ma, Perlman and Ax are non-judgmental
about Schumann’s belief in Fiery and Cold.
They don’t imply that such a belief was any-
thing but helpful to Schumann's art. But,
whatever the causes of this tragic composer’s
fate, the experiences of other great

composers, of seemingly supernatural
sources of inspiration, have usually been be-
nign, and often joyous. The best-known case
is that of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-
1791), the Austrian child prodigy who impro-
vised his first minuets at age four and died at
age thirty-five after completing such tow-
ering masterpieces as The Magic Flute and
the Requiem.
In The Spiritual Lives of Great Com-
posers, Patrick Kavanaugh paints this vivid
picture of the child musician Mozart:
“The Papal Choir
excelled during its
Holy Week perfor- The boy Mozart
The boy
mances, leaving the Mozart,
worshipers breathless 1773
in reverent praise. In
one pew, a young boy
visiting the Vatican
leans forward expec-
tantly, transported by
the music.
“He listens in-
tently as the choir
sings its annual pres-
entation of a beloved
Miserere, a composi-
tion protected by
papal decree. By law,
this work could not
be performed else-
where, and the only
manuscript of the
music was closely
guarded by the Vat-
ican. Anyone who at-
tempted to copy it would be punished imme-
diately by excommunication.
“After the performance, the young Aus-
trian lad settles down at a desk in his room
and writes out—from memory—every note
of the elaborate Miserere he had just heard.
News of this facsimile makes its way back to
the Pope, and the Vatican buzzes with specu-
lation over what would happen next.
“The boy’s punishment? Instead of ex-
communicating the boy for his feat of phe-
nomenal genius, the Pope presents young
Mozart with a select Vatican honor: the cov-
eted Cross of the Order of the Golden Spur.”
Mozart’s genius was accompanied by ex-
treme generosity, carefreeness, and even
childlike behavior. Whether these exagger-
ated traits were some of the mainsprings of
Mozart’s genius, or whether they flowed
from that genius, is almost impossible to
tell. But Mozart so overflowed with a godlike
creativity and grace that, when a fellow com-
poser fell ill and couldn’t finish a commis-
sion—and was thereby threatened with fi-
nancial loss—Mozart finished the work for
him and took no credit for its composition.
Another time, accosted by a beggar when he
himself was penniless, Mozart sat down be-
side the man and rapidly composed a Minuet
and Trio. He gave these, and a letter, to the
36 ATLANTIS RISING • Number 83
panhandler and asked him to deliver the
package to Mozart’s publisher. The bewil-
dered beggar ended up with five guineas for
his services as a gofer.
Describing his method of composition,
Mozart wrote: “The process with me is like a
beautiful, vivid dream. Of course, the com-
poser must also have mastered the technique
of his art—the basics. When I feel well and
am in good humor, or when I am taking a
drive or walking, thoughts crowd into my
mind as easily as you could wish. How or
whence they come I do not know. I have
nothing to do with it. Once I have a theme,
another melody comes, linking itself with
the first one in accordance with the needs of
the composition as a whole. Now my soul is
on fire with inspiration. The work grows, ex-
panding more and
more clearly until I
have the composition
as I perceive it. My
imagination lets me
hear it in its en-
tirety.”
The American
composer George
Gershwin (1898-
1837) was on his way
to Boston where his
musical comedy,
Sweet Little Devil,
was about to open,
when he suddenly re-
membered that
Rhapsody in Blue,
his first piano con-
certo, was due in to
his publisher that
day. By the time the
train arrived in
Boston, Gershwin
had virtually com-
pleted the concerto. He later wrote:
“I suddenly heard—even saw on paper—
the complete construction of the Rhapsody,
from beginning to end. No new themes
came to me, but I worked on the thematic
material already in my mind and tried to
conceive the composition as a whole. I heard
it as a sort of musical kaleidoscope of
America—of our vast melting pot, of our un-
duplicated national pep, of our metropolitan
madness.”
The British-born American orchestral
conductor Leopold Stokowski (1882-1977) is
on record as saying that he always sought
spirit guidance when he was in difficulty: “I
have a special way of looking for an interpre-
tation; for instance, I try to say to Bee-
thoven—‘Master, please help me. You are
saying something beyond my comprehen-
sion, but help me so that I do not spoil it.’ I
feel that when composers are addressed like
this, they are like persons around you.”
Austrian composer Franz Josef Haydn
(1732-1809) always got up at 4:00 a.m.,
prayed at length, and then put on his finest
clothes, before sitting down to compose. His
thoughts at the time, he said, were, “I am
now going to commune with God and I must

 ALTERNATIVE SCIENCE
In the Quest for the Elusive “Higgs Boson” Einstein Was Not Alone
• BY MARC J. SEIFER, Ph.D.
I
t was in 1976 while I was in the midst of
following another story at the New York
Public Library when I found Tesla’s
name for the first time. It was alleged,
in a book on avatars, that Tesla had been
born on another planet. He had landed in the
mountains of Yugoslavia in 1856 to give us
humans the induction motor, fluorescent
and neon lights, wireless communication, re-
mote control, robotics, and our entire elec-
trical power system. What immediately
struck me was that had this man done all
this, surely I would have heard his name be-
fore, but I had not.
I then read the O’Neill biography on Tesla
and got his book of patents. From this mate-
rial I was able to ascertain that Tesla indeed
was the real McCoy, that is, the fundamental
inventor behind all these high-tech crea-
tions! He thus became the subject of my doc-
toral dissertation. I wanted to find out how
such an important individual could have
been dropped from the history books, and
this work was morphed into the biography
Wizard: The Life & Times of Nikola Tesla, a
book now in its fourteenth printing, trans-
lated into four languages with over 70,000
copies in print. Tesla is no longer an obscure
individual.
However, what has remained obscure are
some of his still esoteric inventions and dis-
38 ATLANTIS RISING • Number 83
coveries. For instance, his supposed electric
car that derives it’s power by means of wire-
less, his discovery of cosmic rays that travel
at speeds in excess of 50 times the speed of
light, a cosmic ray machine that derives an
unlimited amount of power from the atmos-
phere, a 300-page paper on his bladeless tur-
bine that no one has been able to locate,
more information about his top-secret par-
ticle beam weapon, and the full implications
of his very-well-hidden dynamic theory of
gravity.
The writing of the Tesla biography,
which took 14 years of daily work, involved
travel to every known major Tesla archive
from New York and Massachusetts, to Wash-
ington DC; Berkeley California to Belgrade
Serbia; attendance and participation as a lec-
turer at a dozen or more international Tesla
conferences held in Colorado Springs; at the
site of his Wardenclyffe tower on Long Is-
land, New York; Croatia; Serbia; Tempe, Ari-
zona; Toronto, Canada; and Niagara Falls
covering the years 1984-2009. And in all
that time, having attended all those confer-
ences, and in meeting all the world’s great
Tesla experts, no one, as far as I knew, had
truly understood Tesla’s dynamic theory of
gravity, nor its implications.
It has only been in the last four years,
since the writing of Transcending the Speed
of Light, that I have come to fully appreciate
Tesla’s theory. My source starts with a single
statement Tesla made to the well-known New
York reporter, Joseph Alsop, at the age of 78,
when the inventor was “led to the inesca-
pable conclusion that such bodies as the Sun
are taking on mass much more rapidly than
they are dissipating it by the dissipation of
energy in heat and light” (“Beam to Kill at
200 miles, Tesla claims,” Joseph Alsop, New
York Times, July 11, 1934). Even though I in-
cluded this quote in Wizard, (p. 424), I did
not fully understand what Tesla was trying to
say. It took nearly another decade to figure it
out.
At first, it seems absurd that a body as hot
as the Sun would be absorbing more energy
than it was radiating, and the only reason I
originally gave it any credence was because
Tesla said it. However, the more I thought
about it, the more it becomes obvious. Of
course stars are absorbing more energy than
they are radiating. Otherwise, they would
burn out in rather rapid fashion.
I hadn’t yet, however, linked this state-
ment to the idea of “gravity,” or more to the
point, to Tesla’s never-revealed dynamic
theory of gravity.
The next hint had to do with Tesla’s criti-
cisms of Einstein’s theory of relativity, which
he published in a series of articles in the
mid-1930’s. Tesla’s main criticism had to do
with Einstein’s idea of the curvature of space:

UNTOLD HISTORY
• BY STEVEN SORA
V
isitors to Virginia’s Colo-
nial Williamsburg Park
come to see what
America was in the sev-
enteenth century when settlers
from England came to create a
New World. They walk on quaint
streets filled with brick houses
and blacksmith shops, get
canned speeches from costumed
characters like a historical Dis-
neyland, and visit souvenir ven-
dors for a piece of history to take
home. Few know that they may
be walking over, literally, a secret
vault containing the writings of
Sir Francis Bacon and others. If
they did, they might have a truer
Lost
picture of what Virginia was
really about.
Creating settlements in
Secrets
America was the goal of several
secret societies. In Virginia, there
was no gold to be stolen from an-
cient cultures; that was much
further south. There was no
wealth to be taken from the fur
Of The
trade; that was much further
north. Virginia was an experi-
ment in creating a New World Bruton
Vault
where more than one religion
might be tolerated. Bacon’s plan
for Virginia, as well as the whole
continent, was detailed in his
New Atlantis, not published until
after his death. It would be a
place where religion would be a
matter of choice, where Rule would be estab-
lished by vote, where science would not be
punishable by horrific torture and death. In
short it would be where Liberty would be
more than a word. Virginia, it was hoped,
would be Bacon’s New Atlantis.
Colonies however needed to be funded by
businessmen and permitted by kings and
queens. Royalty might be convinced by
claims to glory, or at least to getting large
tracts of land with names that would immor-
talize them, Virginia for Elizabeth, James-
town to King James. Investors needed more
concrete goals, which tobacco, sugar, rum,
and slaves would provide. The secret societies
had to keep their secrets. Sir Walter Raleigh
said of Bacon, “And thy great genius in being
concealed, is revealed.” Such genius was
threatened by both church and state and
writing on many subjects was a dangerous
occupation. Some believe that in addition to
New Atlantis, Bacon even had sketched out
what would become the American Constitu-
tion. He insisted these works be kept under
wraps until his death. And what better place
is there to hide such secrets than under-
ground repositories.
Bacon’s chaplin, William Rawley, hinted
that his greatness would be revealed at a
later date. The chaplin also served as his sec-

retary and most trusted friend. Some believe
it was Rawley who took charge of his works.
Following Bacon’s instructions, coded
within his writings, Rawley would see that
they were protected. In 1911, Dr. Orville
Ward Owen, after deciphering Bacon’s
codes, led an expedition to find a vault
under the Wye River near Gloucester. They
did find the vault, just where Dr. Owen said
it would be. They also found markings that
Bacon had employed. What they did not find
was Bacon’s manuscripts. Dr. Owen believed
that the same man who had created the un-
derwater hiding place was responsible for
moving the documents a second time, to the
Americas. Rawley, who lived until 1660,
brought the Bacon documents to America.
While Dr. Owen never did find the trove
of Bacon’s writings, he did search in the
Americas; and Oak Island in Nova Scotia was
one place he suspected of being the reposi-
tory. On the small island where the centu-
ries-old dig continues, he asked if they had
found any mercury flasks. The answer was
“yes,” they had. In one of Bacon’s texts he
wrote on the ability of mercury to safely pre-
serve documents.
According to more modern researchers
there are numerous vaults in America where
the blueprints for Bacon’s New Atlantis are
preserved.
Williamsburg’s Bruton
Church may be one of these. The
original Bruton Church was built
to resemble another church built
in Saxon times when King Arthur
rose to save Briton from the in-
vading hordes. John Dee, the
Queen’s advisor on matters of
practicality as well as astrology,
told her Arthur had come to
America and therefore established
England’s claim. The English St.
Mary’s Church in Bruton parish
contains a picture of the Wil-
liamsburg version.
In the chancel of the English
church is the burial crypt of Sir
Charles Berkeley, who had come
to Virginia to serve as governor in
1639, and who was responsible for
the construction of the Williams-
burg Church of the same name.
At this time Rawley was still alive
and still the guardian of Bacon’s
writings.
The history of Williamsburg is
not accessible on any exact level.
Court records were destroyed and
much of the original history has
been lost. What is known is that
the area called the Middle Planta-
tion, where the Bruton Church
sits, was laid out in 1633. Three
original wood-built churches and
parishes were merged into one
and it was called the Bruton
Parish. Bruton Parish would be-
come Williamsburg in 1699.
Somewhere between 1633 and
1699, most likely in 1676, a new church was
built of brick. The vault was already in place,
twenty feet under the ground.
In 1938, an excavation did take place
which revealed the original foundation to the
Bruton Church. The Church had been
moved! The extent of the tunnels remains;
and although in locations the tunnel has
been sealed, it reaches the College of William
and Mary at the western end of the Duke of
Gloucester Street. Four of the first ten presi-
dents were associated with this school. The
Sir Christopher Wren building was con-
structed in 1695. Under the college chapel is
a crypt housing the remains of many Virginia
notables.
The Robert Carter House, the George
Wythe House, the Kings Arms Tavern and
others share underground tunnels with the
Wren Building and the Bruton Church.
Marie Bauer Hall, the wife of Manley
Palmer Hall, the late Masonic philosopher,
noticed a tomb outside the entrance to the
Tower in the churchyard. It is the tomb of
James Nicholson. The inscription on the
tomb has a handful of words that were in-
scribed much larger than the others. One

 ANCIENT MYSTERIES

• BY ZECHARIA SITCHIN

O
ne of the most enigmatic (and theo-
logically challenging) tales in the
Ancient
Giants
Bible is related in the first verses in
Chapter 6 of Genesis—the tale of
the Nefilim, sons of the gods who (in the
days before the Deluge “and thereafter too”)
took “daughters of man” as wives and had he-

&
roic children by them.
Some eighty years ago a schoolboy, fortu-
nate to study the Bible in its original He-
brew, was reprimanded for asking why,
though Nefilim meant ‘Those Who Had De-
scended’ (from heaven, to Earth), translators
render the word as ‘giants.’ The schoolboy

was me, and the unfair reprimand led me to
study ancient myths, trace their origins to
Man’s first known civilization in Sumer and
to write The 12th Planet and subsequent
books comprising the ‘Ancient Astronauts’
scenario: The Nefilim, also called Anakim in
the Bible, were the Sumerian Anunnaki—
“Those who to Earth came from the

heavens”—and more specifically, from Ni-
biru, a far out planet in our own solar
system.
They were the ancient gods whose feats,
detailed in Sumerian texts inscribed on clay
tablets, were recalled in the Genesis tales of
Adam and Eve, the Garden of Eden, and the
eventual intermarriages. It all made sense (at
least to me); it explained enigmas ranging
from biology to astronomy; it was supported
by countless pictorial depictions on objects
called cylinder seals. But could one prove it?
At that same time some eighty years ago,
the famed British archaeologist Leonard
Woolley, excavating in Iraq in the sacred pre-
cinct of Ur—the Sumerian city where
Abraham’s journey to Canaan and mon-
otheism began—unearthed a group of unu-
sual tombs. They were, and remain, extraor-
dinary in their construction and layout,
astounding in the incredible wealth and
craftsmanship of the artifacts found therein
(even the most common utensils were made
of gold) and above all unique in the “inhuma-
tion” of scores of attendants (seventy three in
just one tomb!) who were buried alive along-

 Having partaken from the Tree of Knowl-
edge, the Earthlings are expelled and denied
access to the Tree of Life.
What was it, genetically, that the gods’
deliberately held back from us? What genes
that grant longevity, ward off cancer?
With the revolutionary scientific ad-
vances of genomics, such genetic differences
could be ascertained were we able to get hold
of an Anunnaki god, or a demigod, to do
comparison genome sequencing.
And that, I reveal in my latest book There
Were Giants Upon the Earth, might now be
possible—because Mes.kalem.dug was a
demigod and Nin.Puabi was not a ‘queen’—
she was a NIN, a goddess. Being a female,
her Mitochondrial DNA that comes through
the female line was 100% Niburian.
With her lineage established, I ap-
proached the Natural History Museum in
London. They confirmed the existence of the
skeletal remains, but turned down my sug-
gestion that they conduct the comparison ge-
nome sequencing. After two years of prod-
ding, the publication of There Were Giants
has led the Museum to mitigate their abso-
lute “No” to “we might consider it” if a quali-
fied genomics institute will undertake the
project.
I have approached some of the leading
scientists in this field, offering to fund a
“Goddess of Ur Genome Project.” So it now
remains to be seen whether Science will rise
to the challenge of possibly proving that—as
Zecharia Sitchin has claimed all along There
Were Extraterrestrials Upon the Earth.

CRITICS REMAIN UNCONVINCED

That after thirty-five years since The 12th
Planet the Biblical Data Cycle and the Scien-
tific Discovery Cycle, like two combination
wheels in a safe, will click into the Opening
Spot at Chapter 6 of Genesis was neither fore-
seen not premeditated by me; but it was per-
haps predetermined and inevitable by the
very nature of the subject: human origins.
Looking back, one now realizes that at
every stage the tales of our creation (brief in
the Bible, quite detailed in the Sumerian
texts) are reports of DNA, genomics, and ge-
netic engineering: The “seed of life” (DNA) is
transmitted from Nibiru to Earth during a
celestial collision; Man is fashioned by the El-
ohim/Anunnaki by adding some of their
genes to those of a primitive hominid to at-
tain a Homo sapiens; the infertile hybrid is
given the ability to procreate by another ge-
netic manipulation (the “Garden of Eden” ep-
isode); and then the cycle is completed by the
mating of gods and Earthlings, bringing
about the prized achievement, the demigods.
It is with the demigods that that chain of
genetic mixing assumes a personal interest to
all of us. The clues are brought into focus in
the epic tale of Gilgamesh, the most famous
of all known demigods, who was king in the
city of Uruk circa 2650 B.C. His father was
the demigod Lugalbanda; but because his
mother was the goddess Ninsun, he was more
than a demigod—he was “two thirds of him
divine.” That, he believed, entitled him to the
longevity (alias “immortality”) of the gods.
But his search, he was forewarned, would be
futile because, in the words of the Gilgamesh
Epic:
When the gods created Man
Wide understanding they perfected for him;
Wisdom they had given him;
To him they had given Knowledge—
Everlasting life they had not given him
Come to think of it, that is exactly the
lesson of the biblical Garden of Eden tale:
Even in the Alternative Science Community
Sitchin’s Thesis Has Been Very Controversial
hen Zecharia Sitchin first wrote
W his books, The 12th Planet and its
sequels, only specialists could read
the Sumerian language, but now anyone
can check his translations by utilizing the
2006 book Sumerian Lexicon, and Mi-
chael S. Heiser, a scholar of ancient lan-
guages, has found many deviations in
Sitchin's translations.
Sitchin’s “planetary collision” view
does superficially resemble a theory
which is seriously entertained by modern
astronomers—the giant impact theory of
the Moon’s formation about 4.5 billion
years ago by a body impacting with the
newly-formed Earth. However, Sitchin’s
proposed series of rogue planetary colli-
sions differ in both details and timing. As
with Immanuel Velikovsky’s earlier
Worlds in Collision thesis, Sitchin claims
to have found evidence of ancient human
knowledge of rogue celestial motions in a Zecharia Sitchin
variety of mythological accounts. In Veli-
kovsky’s case, these interplanetary colli- teroid belt to twelve times farther beyond

If Managing Water Makes a Civilization, the Hohokam Were Civilized Indeed
• BY FRANK JOSEPH
E
very high culture—from the Indus
Valley to the United States—has
been distinguished by the will and
genius of its creators to achieve the
proper distribution of fresh water. Such or-
ganization is impossible without social coop-
eration, which is itself the kernel of civiliza-
tion. Both mutually arise from each other.
Hence, water management is not only funda-
mental to the early construction and exis-
tence of a high culture, but generates the
common spirit that typifies and motivates it.
Thus deeply involved in applying this pri-
mary resource, a people’s close relationship
with water naturally generates a standard of
civic hygiene higher than others less able to
use it for one reason or another.
The Roman custom of bathing at least
three times daily amounted to a prophylactic
measure that saved the Empire from most
disease outbreaks that ravaged the rest of the
contemporary, outside world. Not for
nothing was some of the Eternal City’s most
glorious architecture lavished on its public
baths. After they were closed as “sinful
places” by bishops of the Church Trium-
phant, the West was overwhelmed by a Dark
Ages best remembered for pandemics that
pushed Europe toward extinction. One may
conclude, then, that the public organization
of water by particular peoples who value it
characterizes them as civilized. As such, a so-
ciety ascends or declines between high cul-
ture and base savagery as the appreciation of
its members for general hygiene rises or
falls. Well-run civilizations are clean. Those
in decline are not.
If so, then the Hohokam of the American
See Our Great 8-page Catalog Beginning on Page 74
Southwest were eminently civilized. What
these mostly forgotten civilizers actually
called themselves is unknown. “Hohokam” is
a Pima Indian name referring to them as
“the Ancient Ones.” Sometime after AD
1000, they arrived as sophisticated hydraulic
engineers and at once recognized the poten-
tial for greatness promised by the middle
Gila River and lower Salt River. Drainage
areas offered a permanent flow of clean
water that itself supported a dozen species of
fish life, including shellfish, while marshy
sections along the banks were havens for
game and fowl.
Here, in the middle of the desert, there
was water, if managed properly, for a whole
people to drink, cultivate land, and mature
crops on a monumental scale. From this
Edenic environment, the Hohokam
founding fathers began building more than a
thousand miles of canals, long enough if
formed single file to run from their base
below Tucson and Phoenix to the Canadian
border. Their enterprise was not a simple
matter of scratching out some ditches in the
Earth, but entailed the construction of hun-
dreds of ridges uniformly raised above
ground level in ten-foot high embankments
and organized on a preplanned grid.
While Richard B. Woodbury, writing in
American Antiquity, doubted that all of
them were floored in a thick, calcareous coat
of caliche, “there seems to be little doubt
that at least part of a large canal was care-
fully lined to render it practically watertight,
even though the cost in labor must have
been enormous.”
The north canal to which he alluded ex-
tended for nine miles; a southern example is
shorter by two miles. “Both canals are com-
parable in length,” Woodbury observed, “to
some of the modern canals in use today
(1960).”
Since then, the largest so far identified
extends twenty miles, and many more than
twelve miles long have come to light. They
were part of regularly spaced watercourses
occasionally grooved or rifled at particular
sections to increase flow where desired. At
their junction with a river, the main canals
grow progressively smaller toward their ter-
minus, thereby increasing flow velocity to
counter evaporation and seepage. This con-
trol was additionally important in main-
taining a constant water rate—if too high, it
eroded the canal; too low, it permitted soil
particles to silt up the watercourse. Spillage
into dipping pools allowed local removal or
run through channels to farming areas
making possible a twice-annual growing
season, together with a profusion and diver-
sity of crops including at least two different
types of corn, where nothing had grown be-
fore.
Some 1,773 acres of tillable land on the
lowest terrace of the main population center
were thus irrigated, but this figure is a frac-
tion of the full extent served. One water-
course alone, referred to by archaeologists as
“Canal System Two”, was capable of irri-
gating over 10,000 acres. To build it, approxi-
mately 2,624,000 cubic feet of soil were re-
moved, with an additional 1,312,000 during
later reconstruction. The canals ranged from
eighty feet wide and twenty feet deep, impos-
sible to ford, so they were regularly crossed
with foot-traffic bridges high enough to
allow for passage underneath of balsawood

size. Jupiter has sixty-three moons at last
entists believe that 4.6 billion years ago there
were two planets circling the Sun where the
Earth and Moon are now. In this scenario, a
Mars-sized planet, traveling in a tight orbit
with Earth, collided with us, stirring up and
jettisoning a great deal of planetary matter.
After cooling and coalescing, our Moon
formed and settled into orbit around Earth.

T
he Moon is about one quarter the
size of Earth and is believed to be
four billion years old. Our Moon is
the fifth largest satellite in the solar
system and causes our planetary tides, due to
the gravitational interaction between the
Moon and Earth. The Moon revolves around
Earth in an elliptical orbit, lasting 27.32
days. The Moon also rotates on its own axis
in the same amount of time, forming a syn-
chronous rotation with Earth. Therefore, the
same side of the Moon is always visible from
Earth.
Contrary to whimsical nursery rhymes,
the Moon is not made of green cheese but in-
stead has a thick outer crust of solid rock and
a central core of solid metal, with a very
small inner core of molten metal. The cra-
tered surface of the Moon is covered with a
count, and Jupiter’s large moons, Io, Eu-
ropa, Ganymede, and Callisto, discovered by
Galileo in 1610, are like a mini solar system.
Saturn has sixty-one known moons, in-
cluding the mysterious Titan, which pos-
sesses a hazy, nitrogen-rich atmosphere,
thicker than Earth’s atmosphere. Most of
the large moons in the solar system were
created as proto-planetary disks, dusty disks
that surrounded the planets during their
formation. The moons condensed in much
the same way the planets did, coalescing out
of the solar nebula.
Since astronauts have returned home
with Moon rocks, scientists have been able
to study the Moon’s origins and geology first

a different manner than other moons. Using

So rather than planet and moon, we are
really two planets, poetically termed Terra
and Luna by astronomers, moving in a cir-
cular pas de deus around the Sun. No
wonder our bond with the Moon is so strong;
she is more sister than satellite. Astrological
interpretation has long understood this inti-
mate and symbiotic relationship.
The Moon rises and sets every day, ap-
pearing on the horizon just like the Sun. The
time of moonrise depends on the phase of the
Moon. She rises about 30 to 70 minutes later
each day, so the Moon is visible during the
day as often as at night. Therefore, in a sym-
bolic sense, part of our nighttime subcon-
scious awareness is available to us during the
day. A lunar eclipse occurs during a full
Moon, when the Earth’s shadow falls on the
Moon. Lunar eclipses occur, on average,

about every six months. A total eclipse of the
Moon occurs when the entire Moon enters
the Earth’s umbra, the darkest part of
Earth’s shadow. A partial eclipse happens
when only part of the Moon enters Earth’s
shadow.
Moon Madness
The term lunacy derives from Luna, the
Roman Moon goddess. In eighteenth-century
England, a murderer could plead “lunacy”
and get a lighter sentence, if the crime was
committed during the full Moon. Psycholo-
gist Arnold Lieber and his colleagues at the
University of Miami, Florida, collected data
on homicides in Dade County over a period
of fifteen years—1,887 murders in all. When
they matched the incidence of homicides
with the phases of the Moon, they were sur-
prised to find that the two rose and fell to-
gether like a tide for the entire fifteen-year
period. As the full or the new Moon ap-
proached, the murder rate rose sharply and
distinctly declined during the first and last
quarters of the Moon. They repeated the ex-
periment using homicide data from Cuya-
hoga County in Cleveland, Ohio, and the sta-
tistical pattern repeated.
An earlier report by the American Insti-
tute of Medical Climatology to the Philadel-
phia Police Department entitled, “The Effect
of the Full Moon on Human Behavior,”
found similar results. That report showed
that the full Moon marks a monthly peak in
various kinds of psychotically oriented

crimes such as murder, arson, dangerous
driving, and kleptomania. Dr. Lieber specu-
lated that since the human body is composed
of almost 80% water, some kind of “biolog-
ical tide” may affect human emotions. For
persons already on psychologically shaky
ground, such a biological tide might push
them over the edge. Like legends of were-
wolves, potent archetypal material may come
to the surface of consciousness from the
shadow, or “dark side,” during the light of a
full moon. For some, facing these psycholog-
ical demons could result in irrational be-
havior.
Lunar Astrology
At night we face away from the Sun
looking instead at the Moon and stars in a
dark sky. Symbolically, the Moon is seen as
the agency which reflects different kinds of
archetypal light into “earthly” conscious-
ness. Astrologically, the Moon represents our
instincts, memories, the past, our habitual
behaviors, and our inheritance. The Moon re-
veals and conditions our evolving personality.
This hidden side of our nature conceals our
habitual selves and unconscious patterns
which need to be healed or reclaimed. As sci-
ence may now be explaining, the Moon is
seen symbolically as our lost psyche, separ-
ated from our waking consciousness.
In Indian, or Vedic Astrology, the Moon is
revered as a god named Chandra and is the
most important planet in the horoscope. This
masculine deity rules women and mothers
and signifies feminine qualities. Eastern as-
trologers also pay attention to the Moon’s
Nodes as indicative of major soul lessons. The
nodes are the two points in the Moon’s
monthly orbit when it crosses the ecliptic,
the Sun’s apparent path. In China these
points are called The Dragon’s Head and Tail.
As the Moon circles Earth, the shape of
the Moon appears to change because different
amounts of the illuminated part of the Moon
are facing us. The shape varies through eight
phases, ranging from a new Moon, when the
Moon is between the Sun and Earth, to a full
Moon, when Earth is between the Sun and
the Moon. The cyclical relationship of the
Moon to the Sun produces what is called the
lunation cycle—the Moon’s phases. The
Moon increases in light, fullness and distance
from the Sun as she waxes from conjunction
to opposition, and the process reverses

Unseen Powers Within

History is Plain—Absence of Seeing Doesn’t Mean Absence of Controversy
• BY MARSHA OAKS

T
he invisible world which, despite its
intangible aspect, inspires much of
the human race to carry on, while
often enraging the rest, is a common
theme uniting each of our films for this
issue. They are, however, dealing with very
different dimensions of the central riddle of
existence.

DOES GOD EXIST?

A Debate Between Christopher
Hitchens & William Lane Craig
La Mirada Films
On April 4, 2009, William Lane Craig and
Christopher Hitchens met to debate the exis-
tence of God. The debate was moderated by
Hugh Hewitt and seen live by several thou-
sand in attendance at Biola University and
many more at remote locations in 30 states
and several countries via the Internet.
Craig is one of the world’s foremost
Christian apologists. Hitchens is a leading
spokesman for the “new atheism” movement.
They debated the origin and design of the
universe, the implications of human mo-
rality, the deity of Jesus, and the validity of
Christ’s resurrection. It was a compelling
clash of worldviews and an examination of
the major arguments for and against Chris-
tianity and atheism.
William Lane Craig (born August 23,
1949) is one of the better-known debaters in
the field over the past 50 years, theologian,
philosopher, and contributor to the philos-
ophy of religion, historical Jesus studies, and
the philosophy of time. He is one of the most
visible contemporary proponents of natural
theology, often participating in debates on
the existence of God. He is currently a Re-
search Professor of Philosophy at Talbot
School of Theology, Biola University. He has
authored and/or edited over 30 books.
Hitchens, English/American (retaining
his British citizenship, Hitchens became a
United States citizen on his fifty-eighth
birthday on April 13, 2007) author and jour-
nalist, is a secular humanist and anti-theist
and describes himself as a believer in the
philosophical values of the Age of Enlighten-
ment. He is known as one of the “Four

He wrote at length on atheism and the
nature of religion in his 2007 book, God Is
Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything.
Since this book relates to the debate and not
having read the book myself, I’ll quote here
from a review of the book by Stephen Pro-
thero: “What Hitchens gets wrong is religion
itself.… God Is Not Great assumes a childish
definition of religion and then criticizes re-
ligious people for believing such foolery. But
it is Hitchens who is the naïf...to believe that
faith is always blind and rituals always
empty—that there is no difference between
taking communion and drinking the Kool-
Aid (a beverage Hitchens feels compelled to
mention no fewer than three times)....
Hitchens describes the religious mind as ‘lit-
eral and limited’ and the atheistic mind as
‘ironic and inquiring.’ Readers with any
sense of irony—and here I do not exclude be-
lievers—will be surprised to see how little in-
quiring Hitchens has done and how limited
and literal is his own ill-prepared reduction
of religion.... Hitchens is a brilliant man...but
I have never encountered a book whose au-
thor is so fundamentally unacquainted with
its subject. In the end, this maddeningly dog-
matic book does little more than illustrate
one of Hitchens’s pet themes—the ability of
dogma to put reason to sleep.” And from
Publishers Weekly: “But its weakness is its
almost fanatical insistence that religion poi-
sons ‘everything,’ which tips over into barely
disguised misanthropy.”
Misanthropy is a dislike of mankind, and
it appears that this might be so with
Hitchens. A profile on him by NPR stated:
“Hitchens is known for his love of cigarettes
and alcohol—and his prodigious literary
output.” He drinks, he says, “because it
makes other people less boring. I have a
great terror of being bored. But I can work
with or without it. It takes quite a lot to get
me to slur.” Hitchens admits to drinking
heavily; in 2003 he wrote that his daily intake
of alcohol was enough “to kill or stun the av-
erage mule,” noting that many great writers
“did some of their finest work when
smashed, polluted... and three sheets to the
wind.”
This 2-DVD set captures every moment of
the debate, which is documented by10 cam-
eras; and these cameras do capture every-
thing! Hitchens may or may not have been
drinking, but he just wasn’t quite himself.
Craig was determined to get Hitchens to
specify more precisely his self-identification
as an atheist, and much of his cross-
examination time was taken up with this
question—due in part to Hitchens’s bobbing
and weaving on the point. Both parties to a
debate of such existential significance should
be clear about their own positions and be
prepared to present good reasons for them.
Hitchens has a worldview. It is thoroughly
naturalistic and scientistic, and indeed mate-
rialistic; and he made no attempt to argue
that his worldview is true. Craig dramati-
cally, but graciously, pointed out that
Hitchens made his own truth claims on be-
half of atheism, that he did so without sup-
porting argument, and that “you’ve got to
come to a debate prepared with arguments.”
While Hitchens did make arguments, they
were largely unfocused, sometimes discon-
nected, and often irrelevant. I almost felt
sorry for him because he seemed somewhat
pathetic in the true sense of the word
(arousing pity, esp. through vulnerability or
sadness), not in a derogatory sense.
Preparation—this is the noteworthy dif-
ference between these two debaters. Whether
one agrees or disagrees with Craig, there is
no question that he was thoroughly prepared
for every aspect of this debate and never fal-
tered in his response to objections by
Hitchens. Hitchens, on the other hand,
dropped several of Craig’s opening argu-
ments and seriously misunderstood or dis-
torted the moral argument. He also made a
couple of odd points in his rebuttal, as if to
answer arguments or objections that Craig
had not given.
In regards to Hitchens’s condemnation of
religion, he may have been seeking a balance
that was needed if he was to remain faithful
to the spirit and tone of his book without
completely alienating his audience. His dia-
tribes in God Is Not Great are famously mean
and visceral in the extreme. During this de-
bate, he was more cautious in his declara-
tions. He did say, “I’ll be damned, if I don’t
say what I really think of religion and Chris-
tianity.” But this was mild in comparison
with what he is capable of. The problem was,
and he knew it, his off-the-cuff remarks were
not germane to the debate.
Craig actually seemed to be enjoying the
dialogue. Certainly he was unapologetic
about his Christian faith, though similar ar-
guments can be made by proponents of most
major religions. He spoke convincingly, yet
briefly, of the transformation of his life after
believing in Christ. And he explained the
basis Christians have for hope in this life and
the next. He even urged Christopher
Hitchens to become a Christian, since
Hitchens wants to say that there are objec-
tive moral values but can’t account for them
in his worldview. Craig made the offer
without seeming supercilious. Even though
clearly promoting his personal religious
views, Craig does not come off “preachy”—
no moral advice in a tedious, self-righteous
way—he simply seem to lay out a straightfor-
ward case.
Hitchens’s latest book, entitled Hitch-22:
A Memoir, was published in June 2010. He
postponed his book tour to undergo treat-
ment for esophageal cancer. We wish him a
speedy recovery.
Bonus features include the pre-debate
press conference, a question-and-answer ses-
sion, and interviews with Hitchens and
Craig.

 THE BIG BANG WITHIN YOU: The
Secret of the Law of Attraction
Dr. Fred Alan Wolf
Dr. Wolf is a physicist and author
who lectures throughout the world and
conducts research on the relationship
of quantum physics to consciousness.
He is winner of the National Book
Award for Taking the Quantum Leap.
Wolf has taught at the University of
London, the University of Paris, the
Hahn-Meitner Institute for Nuclear
Physics in Berlin, The Hebrew Univer-
sity of Jerusalem, and San Diego State
University in the United States. His
work in quantum physics and con-
sciousness is well known through his
popular and scientific writing. He is
the author of eleven books. Wolf has
also appeared as the resident physicist
on The Discovery Channel’s, “The
Know Zone,” and on many radio and
television talk shows and documen-
taries around the world.
Wolf's fascination with the world of
physics began one afternoon as a child
at a local matinee, when the newsreel
revealed the awesome power and might
of the world’s first atomic explosion.
This fascination continued, leading
Wolf to study mathematics and physics.
In 1963, he received his Ph.D. in theo-
retical physics from UCLA and began
researching the field of high atmos-

pheric particle behavior following a nu-
clear explosion. His inquiring mind
has delved into the relationship be-
tween human consciousness, psy-
chology, physiology, the mystical, and
the spiritual. Investigations have taken
him from intimate discussions with
physicist David Bohm to the magical
and mysterious jungles of Peru, from
master classes with Nobel Laureate
Richard Feynman to the high deserts
of Mexico, from a significant meeting
with Werner Heisenberg to the hot
coals of a firewalk.
He has no qualms about the “s”
word—spirituality. He sees the sacred
in everything and can give you a the-
orem to prove it. From every angle he
blasts the boundary between science
and spirit and can make universal con-
sciousness sound like a logical idea. He
may be the first physicist ever to be-
come a pop culture celebrity. In his
featured appearance in the movie What
the Bleep Do We Know!? he brought
cutting-edge quantum theory down to
earth and stirred a cult following by
heralding proof of ancient spiritual
principles for a mainstream audience.
“Mind is not limited or contained
within the boundaries of the material
world,” he says. “Mind is not in you
and in me separately. Mind is uni-

to the new science frontier was compressed
for Lambertson by his willingness to experi-
ence firsthand. In his article The WIN
Method ZPE Story, he wrote about one of
those bridging moments. “By quieting the
mind, it is possible to feel the radiant energy
being emitted at the tip of a quartz crystal.
The Wizard stones on Waikiki beach are large
volcanic stones with numerous projections.
These projections are energy emitters that
one can feel. ZPE (zero-point energy) is con-
centrated at the corners and edges of a
crystal.”
Before going so far afield, he accom-
plished milestones that eventually placed his
biography into a Who’s Who of the South
and Southwest. After getting his doctorate in
ceramic engineering from Rutgers Univer-
sity, he did quality-control for United States
Steel in Chicago before going into the United
States Navy as an officer. He returned to Rut-
gers for more postgraduate work and later
joined Argonne National Laboratory engi-
neers in trying to stabilize uranium metals.
He then went to the University of Toledo as a
professor. At the Carborundum Company as
director of applied research, he gained
knowledge about semiconductors which
helped later with his invention. Then a job
offer took him to Kentucky as Manager of the
Physical Sciences at Spindletop Research.
When he first heard about zero-point en-
ergy, his reaction was predictable. He re-
called, “A distant cousin told me he had in-
vested in a gravity motor. I thought this was
the most ridiculous idea I had ever heard.”
In the mid-1960s The Story of Edgar
Cayce: There is a River, by Thomas Sugrue,
first introduced Lambertson to the role of an
intriguing crystal energy collector in the de-
struction of Atlantis. He assumed its energy
source was what the ancients called the
ether. In 1972 Lambertson’s friend, an army
colonel who practiced as a trance psychic, of-
fered to work with him to build a replica of
the first Atlantean energy converter. The
friend had learned in psychic readings that
he, now an army officer, had once been a
technician in an Atlantean energy-
conversion facility. In his psychic vision, he
could see the converter and describe it but
didn’t know how it worked because such se-
crets had been restricted to the upper priest-
hood.
It seemed to the two friends to be a way
to solve environmental problems and oil
crises. Win Lambertson and his older son
Larry, then a freshman medical student who
had studied physics for several years, tackled
the project. “We thought we would be able to
replicate the method in a year,” Win Lam-
bertson recalled in one of many letters to as-
sociates. Even after 30 years of experi-
menting in his garage, he only had a
prototype, a proof-of-principle system. Per-
haps someone else will eventually bring an

The Paradise Point Pier Granite Slabs, Underwater

This man-made stone forma-
tion, which is actually three sep-
arate lines of multi-layered stone
blocks, was first found in 2004 by
Bill Donato, Andrew & Sue Col-
lins, Lora Little, and me. It is
clearly a manmade breakwater of
unknown origin. Its depth is
from about 8 feet to approxi-
mately 15 feet. On this trip Lora
spent considerable time filming it
and discovered, for the first time, definitive
stone anchors embedded in the piled stone
forming the breakwater. There are several
huge anchors there, but the smaller ones are
similar to Arawak anchors. There are three
separate anchoring, docking, and breakwater
formations underwater off the west side of
Bimini. All three have stone anchors and
show clear evidence of being used by a mari-
time culture—unrecognized and unacknowl-
edged by mainstream archaeology. These are
the Paradise Point Pier, what is known as
“Proctor’s Road” (a series of stone block cir-
cles on a mile-long line), and the Bimini
Road. Proctor’s Road, running for about 3/4
of a mile, is strewn with stone anchors.
Wooden Ship & Ballast
Storms and tidal surges shifted a great
deal of sand at Bimini since our last trip
there in 2009. The remains of a large wooden
ship (which had been burned) were found off
Bimini in about 15 feet of water. In the
center of the huge sand-covered wooden
made by Pino Turolla detailing the discovery
of about 30 long stone columns off South Bi-
mini. Some of these were described as rec-
tangular beams over 30 feet in length. When
Turolla first found these, there was no GPS
available, and shifting sands are a continual
problem at Bimini. The columns have never
been rediscovered, and some skeptics have
asserted that Turolla’s columns never ex-
isted. When I first saw this unusual set of
ruins, I thought that it may be Turolla’s for-
gotten and dismissed columns. Thus, we
dubbed the area the “columns,” but it’s defi-
nitely not an appropriate term. It is now
clear that this underwater area contains the
ruins of a stone building or buildings.
The ruins are in about 20 feet of water
and are surrounded by pristine white sand
on all four sides. Thus, the ruins stand out in
stark contrast to the sandy areas around
them. The “ruins” area is a near perfect rec-
tangle roughly 20-25 feet wide and 30 feet
long. The outside “edges” (the outer walls of
the ends) of the structure are formed by
Steps, Cut Rooms, and
Passages
About 10-miles south of Bi-
mini was another surprise. On an
underwater ridge that extends up
from a much deeper bottom to
about 20 feet below sea level is a
well-defined area that contains
cut granite slabs, what appear to
be steps carved into stone, and
square and rectangular “rooms”
carved into the ridge itself. One
particular area looks like a square room of
about 8 x 8 feet. The walls of this formation,
cut into the limestone bottom, extend down
about 4 feet on each side with the bottom
being white sand. There are two smooth
granite slabs, each about 4-6 feet long, 2 feet
wide, and 8-12 inches thick lying along the
inside walls of this room formation—
apparently arranged. A passageway leads
from this formation to others that are adja-
cent. One of these adjacent “rooms” has what
appear to be three cut stone steps descending
down into what looks like another room.
Other granite slabs are scattered about in the
area. Some had coral growth while others did
not.
The granite slabs, if taken alone, could be
from an old shipwreck, and there are several
old shipwrecks in a nearby area—which are
located on the deep water side of the ridge.
The appearance, however, of the rooms and
the steps, and the slabs arranged inside a cut
square area, make it highly intriguing.

was placed over the head of a corpse so that
onlookers and the family of the deceased
would be spared the horror of seeing the face
go into rigor mortis. Jewish culture also had
a specific code of conduct for dealing with
blood, and all accounts agree that Jesus had
been bleeding severely on the cross. Most in-
terestingly, scientific analysis has shown that
the stains of the sudarium match those on
the head portion of the Shroud, a notion first
suggested by Mgr. Ricci in 1965. The clear
implication is that both cloths at some point
covered the same body. This conclusion is
supported by the fact that
the same blood group (AB)
can be found on both relics,
as well as identical pollens
(e.g. Gundelia tournefortii).
In fact, the sudarium con-
tains pollen from Palestine,
Africa, and Spain, thus con-
firming the relic’s historical
journey. It also contains aloe
and myrrh, known to be
common ingredients in the
preparation of the dead for
burial. The scientific analysis
of the sudarium has also
shown that the person who
was laid inside the sudarium
and the Shroud was tortured
and died on a cross. If this
was a fake, i.e., not the cov-
ering of Jesus Christ), then
someone went to a great deal
of trouble perfectly simu-
lating Jesus’ death.
Given that the sudarium
has a recorded history from
AD 1075 onward, the conclu-
sion has to be that the su-
darium and the shroud pre-
date AD 1075—if not the
sixth century, thus falsifying the carbon-
dating report.
One of the principal researchers into the
Oviedo shroud is Mark Guscin, who in 1999
presented the conclusion of the scientific
committee that both the sudarium and the
Shroud had covered the same injured head.
The analysis also revealed that the man for
whom the sudarium had been used had been
dead and had suffered wounds before death,
while the formation of the stains showed that
both arms had been outstretched above his
head and that the feet were in such a position
as to make breathing very difficult—in short,
that he was likely crucified. Finally, Guscin
added that the man had a beard, moustache
and long hair tied up at the nape of his neck
into a ponytail. This conforms to other re-
search carried out on the Turin Shroud, in-
cluding the recent work by Ray Downing—
creating a three-dimensional reconstruction
60 ATLANTIS RISING • Number 83
of the face from the image on the Shroud—
which reveals a beard, a moustache, and long
hair.
The scientific evidence compiled from the
sudarium follows the Bible’s timeline: it
would have been over the head of Jesus for
about 45 minutes, when Joseph of Arimathea
went to Pilate to have the body removed
from the cross and to allow it to be buried.
From the position of the blood and fluid
stains, scientists have been able to show that
the sudarium covered the head of a dead
man who was first in a vertical position and
later in a horizontal position—for another
hour or so. The cause of death in crucifixion
is asphyxiation, i.e., fluid building up in the
lungs. When the body is put in a horizontal
position, this fluid exits through the mouth
and nose as seen on the sudarium.
Jewish custom also allows that during
the transport to the tomb, a cloth was
wrapped around the body, which would have
been removed and exchanged for the burial
cloth. The gospels argue that a new, clean
linen was indeed wrapped around Jesus for
transport. This “transport shroud” might
have been the cloth given to Charlemagne in
ca. 797, brought to the Abbey of St Cornelius
in Compiègne a century later—where it be-
came the object of many pilgrimages—and
where it was destroyed during the tumult of
the French Revolution.
Three shrouds were reported, two of
which survived the ages but whose wherea-
bouts, for most of two millennia were un-
known and which are, therefore, the subject
of great controversy. Though the Gospel of
John makes reference to both a sudarium
and the shroud, it seems that after their dis-
covery in the empty tomb, both objects took
different trajectories. Most sources argue
that Peter had taken charge of the sudarium
and had hidden it, while the burial cloth it-
self was given to Joseph of Arimathea. Inter-
estingly, Isodad says that Peter used the
cloth in a rite known as the imposition of the
hands, in which the relic was used to obtain
cures (Peter placing the sudarium on his
head, like a mitre). Interestingly, the miracu-
lous powers of the sudarium might also be
fact, not legend. Janice Bennett, who has had
a long interest in the sudarium, wrote how in
1988 she was given an image of the su-
darium, which had touched the blood on the
sudarium. She reports how on a number of
occasions, when she used it, it was able to
heal. Indeed, other relics having to do with
the Passion are said to have similar abilities.
Some relics, though, are more interesting
than others, and the Turin Shroud could be
the most interesting of all. When we read the
Gospel of John, it is clear that when “the
other disciple”—John—entered the empty
tomb, it was from the position in which the
The Arca Santa in Oviedo
shroud was seen, that he “believed.” Maybe
he also saw the image on the shroud, though
this is unconfirmed. But from that position
alone, John was convinced something out of
the ordinary had occurred.
The anomalous image on the Turin
Shroud, the creation of which science still
cannot explain, is further evidence to sub-
stantiate this theory. Indeed, scientists agree
that the shroud and the testimony of John
argue that a paranormal event had occurred.
The methodology of just how the image on
the Turin Shroud was created, cannot, at
present, be reproduced. The closest that one
has come has been outlined by Ray Downing,
namely that a state-of-the-art computer
scanner is best able to create a similar image;
but that fails to account for just how the tiny
dots became attached to the actual cloth,
since, of course, there were no such scanners
at the time the Shroud was created.

Professor John G. Cramer of Washington
University saw in 1985 in terms of “children
of the swan” (Cramer, 1985), the swan being
the Cygnus constellation’s most popular
identification in European star lore. Scien-
tists will tell you that the existence of cyg-
nets was never confirmed, so the evidence of
their discovery at particle detectors such as
NUSEX beneath Mont Blanc and Soudan in
Minnesota has to be ignored; indeed, scien-
tists who wrote papers on this subject were
often ridiculed by their contemporaries.
However, I can assure you that the cygnets
from Cygnus never stopped coming, and that
their detection has continued at facilities
around the world, including the Soudan
Mine in Minnesota (Allison et al, 1999).

Again, none of this should be of even the
slightest interest to the person in the street.
Even at a distance of 30,000 light years,
Cygnus X-3 is so far away that why should we
care? Well, perhaps you should care, for the
attraction of the Cygnus constellation goes
back to the earliest cave art. For instance, in
2000 German archaeoastronomer Dr Michael
Rappenglück of Munich University identified
the presence of the Cygnus constellation
among abstract rock art in the deepest
chamber of the famous Lascaux cave in
southern France (Rappenglück, 2004). This
was the setting for strange rites conducted by
our Palaeolithic ancestors as much as 17,000
years ago.
It is also toward Cygnus, known more
popularly as the Northern Cross, that relig-
ious buildings and structures have been
aligned ever since the very first great stone
complexes were erected in southeast Turkey
around 12,000 years ago. On top of this, the

his entire life, was carefully obscure the
reason why radio broadcasts follow the cur-
vature of the Earth (follow the ground con-
nection). The answer has to do with the
single sentence he revealed to Alsop in 1934;
namely that the Sun was absorbing more en-
ergy than it was radiating.
This, in a nutshell, is Tesla’s dynamic
theory of gravity. All matter is constantly ab-
sorbing ether all the time at the tachyonic
speed of 1.37 times the speed of light. This is
the world of ether. By its nature, the ether
exists in a realm that transcends the speed of
light.
So, what then is gravity according to this
theory? Gravity is simply the absorption of
ether by, for instance, the earth. The reason
we fall back to the earth when we jump up is
not because of some mysterious discon-
nected force called gravity; we fall back to the
earth because we are in the way of the influx
of ether. That is what gravity is. It is absorp-
tion of ether by the elementary particles. It is
the elusive Higgs boson, or God particle, the
force/process that gives matter its mass. And
it happens in a continuous fashion all the
time.
That is why radio broadcasts follow the
curvature of the earth. As the wave propa-
gates, it is pushed down to the earth by
gravity, if you will, by this constant influx of
ether. So, according to this theory, the
reason light particles bend around stars and
planetary bodies is not because space is
curved, but because these photons are being
affected by this constant influx. This theory
further speculates that photons are not really
massless, their mass would be equivalent to
Planck’s constant, a tiny factor which Planck
had to add to all his calculations to make
them work out. If photons have energy, and
if energy and mass are equivalent, then by
definition, photons must have mass.
Now, to solve Einstein’s dream. His goal,
we remember, was to combine gravity with
electromagnetism. The reason he couldn’t do
it was because to do so would involve resur-
recting a detectable ether; and if that were
the case, then, as Einstein himself stated, his
theory of relativity would be wrong. Gravity
is the influx of ether by the elementary parti-
cles it is the process that gives matter its
mass, the so-called God particle. This process
occurs at 1.37 times the speed of light. As
each elementary particle absorbs ether, two
things happen—the process allows or helps
the particle to continue spinning and, simul-
taneously, the energy is converted into elec-
tromagnetism. Ether comes in, causes elec-
trons and other elementary particles to spin,
and in that process, atoms retain their integ-
rity and convert the constant influx into the
electromagnetism, that is, Grand Unification.

would spend over 99% of its time beyond
Pluto. Sitchin’s explanation that heat from
radioactive decay and a thick atmosphere
keep Nibiru warm is absurd and does not ad-
dress the problem of darkness in deep space.
Also unexplained is how the Nefilim, who
evolved long after Nibiru arrived, knew what
happened when Nibiru first entered the solar
system.
Sitchin bases his arguments on his per-
sonal interpretations of Pre-Nubian and Su-
merian texts and the seal VA 243. Sitchin
seal VA 243
claims these ancient civilizations knew of a
12th planet, when in fact they only knew five.
Hundreds of Sumerian astronomical seals
and calendars have been decoded and re-
corded, and the total count of planets on
each seal has been five. Seal VA 243 has 12
dots that Sitchin identifies as planets. When
translated, seal VA 243 reads “You’re his Ser-
vant” which is now thought to be a message
from a nobleman to a servant. According to
semitologist Michael S. Heiser, the so-called
sun on Seal VA 243 is not the Sumerian
symbol for the sun but is a star, and the dots
are also stars. The symbol on seal VA 243 has
no resemblance to the hundreds of docu-
mented Sumerian sun symbols.
Peter James has criticized him both for
ignoring the world outside of Mesopotamia
and more specifically for misunderstanding
Babylonian literature:
He uses the Epic of Creation Enuma
Elish as the foundation for his cosmogony,
identifying the young god Marduk, who over-
throws the older regime of gods and creates
the Earth, as the unknown “Twelfth Planet.”
In order to do this he interprets the Babylo-
nian theogony as a factual account of the
birth of the other “eleven” planets. The Baby-
lonian names for the planets are established
beyond a shadow of a doubt—Ishtar was the
deity of Venus, Nergal of Mars, and Marduk
of Jupiter—and confirmed by hundreds of as-
tronomical/astrological tables and treatises
on clay tablets and papyri from the Helle-
nistic period. Sitchin merrily ignores all this
and assigns unwarranted planetary identities
to the gods mentioned in the theogony. For
example, Apsu, attested as god of the pri-
meval waters becomes, of all things, the Sun!
68 ATLANTIS RISING • Number 83
Ea, as it suits Sitchin, is sometimes planet
Neptune and sometimes a spaceman. And
the identity of Ishtar as the planet Venus, a
central feature of Mesopotamian religion, is
nowhere mentioned in the book—instead
Sitchin arbitrarily assigns to Venus another
deity from Enuma Elish, and reserves Ishtar
for a role as a female astronaut.
Similar ideas have been advanced by au-
thors such as Immanuel Velikovsky, Erich
von Däniken, Alan F. Alford, and Laurence
Gardner. Alford later recanted his views and
became a critic of Sitchin’s interpretation of
myth.
Sitchin in “the case of Adam’s alien
genes” claims that 223 unique genes found
by the Human Genome Sequencing Consor-
tium are without the required predecessors
on the genomic
evolutionary
tree. Later re-
searchers have

tial genes later-
ally transferred

isms. Salzberg also argues that gene loss
combined with sample size effects and evolu-
tionary rate variation provide an alternative,
more biologically plausible, explanation.
William Irwin Thompson comments on
what he calls Sitchin’s ‘literalism’:
What Sitchin sees is what he needs for
his theory. So figure 15 on page 42 is radia-
tion therapy, and figure 71 on page 136 is a
god inside a rocket-shaped chamber. If these
are gods, why are they stuck with our cheap
B movie technology of rockets, microphones,
space-suits, and radiation therapy? If they
are gods, then why can’t they have some
really divine technology such as intradimen-
sional worm-hole travel, antigravity, star-
light propulsion, or black hole bounce rema-
terializations? Sitchin has constructed what
appears to be a convincing argument, but
when he gets close to single images on an-
cient tablets, he falls back into the literalism
of “Here is an image of the gods in rockets.”
Suddenly, ancient Sumer is made to look
like the movie set for Destination Moon.
Erich Von Däniken’s potboiler Chariots of
the Gods has the same problem. The plain of
Nazca in Peru is turned into a World War II
landing strip. The gods can cross galactic
distances, but by the time they get to Peru,
their spaceships are imagined as World War
II prop jobs that need an enormous landing
strip. This literalization of the imagination
doesn't make any sense, but every time it
doesn't, you hear Sitchin say “There can be
no doubt, but...”

HOHOKAM
Continued from Page 45
rafts that used the watercourses for traveling
swiftly throughout Hohokam territory.
As some measure of the expertise that
went into designing one of the foremost
public works projects ever undertaken in
pre-Columbian America, Arizona authors,
John P. Andrews and Todd W. Bostick indi-
cate that “most Hohokam canals were con-
structed with different gradients, depending
on the canal’s location within the system and
its distance from the river. Canal gradients
within Canal System Two, for example,
varied from 4.8 feet per mile to 1.2 feet per
mile.”
In planning their massive waterworks,
Hohokam engineers designed it to conform
with the irregularities of terrain, accounting
for every dip and rise. “They developed a so-
phisticated knowledge of the flow of water
through channels,” observes Arizona histo-
rian, Jerry B. Howard, “and developed a se-
ries of techniques for delivering water to the
surface of the fields.” Among the most vital
of those techniques was the installation of a
weir—a dam partially extended into a river—
at a 45-degree angle to the flow of water,
thereby forcing it into the main canal. There,
a headgate regulated the entering flow,
which passed into distribution canals.
Through these it moved to the fields, where
tapons, or diversion gates, regulated water
See Our Great 8-page Catalog Beginning on Page 74
amounts. Closing the tapon would cause the
water to back up and rise, producing a “head
of water.”
Finally, small, lateral canals released
water directly onto the fields. So immense
was this ancient enterprise, that its full ex-
tent will never be known. According to An-
drews and Bostick, “Many modern canals in
the Phoenix metropolitan area are located in
the same place as the prehistoric Hohokam
canals.”
In fact, virtually all of them have been
obliterated by urban development and
modern farming. At least two large prehis-
toric canals are still preserved at Park of the
Four Waters, located in the southern portion
of the Pueblo Grande Museum and Archeo-
logical Park. “Because of its strategic loca-
tion,” Andrews and Bostick point out,
“Pueblo Grande would have been very impor-
tant to other villages using the canals along
the same system.”
The “Big Town” was situated at the head-
waters that controlled water distribution for
most Hohokam villages on the north side of
the Salt River. As an indication of the site’s
importance, an earthwork at Pueblo Grande
contains 50,000 cubic feet of soil and stone,
making it the largest of its kind along Canal
System Two. Many other similar, if less
great, mounds were set up at important
junctures throughout the network as organi-
zational offices and observation posts to su-
pervise operations. They served as local
water management headquarters surrounded
by high walls, less for defense (at least in the
early days) than to delineate the administra-
tive precinct. Other pueblos at Mesa Grande,
Plaza Tempe, and Tres Pueblos featured plat-
form mounds at the heads of major systems
where the flow of water in main canals was
controlled, yearly repairs to the weirs and
headgates were supervised, and all local ne-
cessities attended.
The canals demanded constant mainte-
nance to keep them operating at maximum
efficiency against breakages, silting, weed
growth, rodent activity, and flash-flooding,
which could cause serious damage. Addi-
tional mounds placed along the canals at reg-
ular, three-mile intervals were secondary
Casa Grande
centers for the regulation of less extensive
districts. Erecting this formidable project
was no small task, particularly for a pre-
industrial people. “Having no draft animals,”
write Andrews and Bostwick, “the Hohokam
had to dig by hand through the hard, sun-
baked soil using large, wedge-shaped, stone
hoes, stone axes, and digging sticks. The ex-
cavated dirt probably was then removed in
baskets and used to build embankments
along the sides of the canals.”
They took not years, but generations, to
construct but were never finished because
Hohokam population continued to expand
with productivity generated by the water-
works. Thus, a peak population of 50,000 in-
habitants were directly supplied with fresh
water.
The hub of the Hohokam network—their
first and largest settlement—was Snaketown,
located on the north side of the lower Gila
River, less than 25 miles southeast of what
would much later become the modern city of >

HOHOKUM
Phoenix. Contrary to alarming imagery gen-
erated by its name, the site was not an out-
standing congregation for serpents, and few
were ever met with there during archaeolog-
ical digs. Known to area Pima Indians as
Skoaquick, “Place of Snakes” referenced the
Hohokam themselves, as wise sorcerers and
water-witches; snakes signified spiritual en-
ergies, water (particularly from under-
ground sources), and the power of
regeneration, as exemplified in the
creature’s ability to slough off its
old, dead skin for a new one.
Like the canals, Skoaquick
was laid out on a square-grid
system of about 7,000 adobe
houses on 270 acres for approxi-
mately twelve thousand inhabi-
tants. Their residential areas com-
prised clusters of homes opening on a
common, open-air courtyard. Some featured
raised, wood floors on stone spikes marked to
standardized measurement; and spacious
rooms were often workshops for various arts-
and-crafts activities, particularly weaving and
jewelry making from stone, bone, and shell.
Clear quartz crystal, green and red quartz,
specular hematite, muscovite, amethyst, mal-
achite, azurite, chrysocolla, rhodochrosite,
and opal were favored minerals.
The Hohokam also invented acid-etching
hundreds of years before the technique was

armorers in Europe. Seashells from the Gulf
of California were adorned by the Snaketown
artist with pitch, then placed in a bath of
weak, acetic acid. Scrapping off the pitch re-
vealed the designs.

They were also advanced metalsmiths.

perplexed investigators, who until then as-
sumed Hohokam furnaces were incapable of
reaching the 2,006 degrees-Fahrenheit nec-
essary to melt silver. The discovery threw
into question the provenance of similar
copper and bronze bells assumed to have
been traded from the Valley of Mexico. In
fact, archaeologists already knew that Ho-
hokam ovens were large affairs for baking
communal bread and capable of producing
higher temperatures.
The Hohokam spiritual center is found
thirty miles down the Lower Gila River from
Snaketown, near Coolidge. Casa Grande is a
modern name given to the sparse ruins of
a once monumental structure erected
at the start of the Southwest flores-
cence one thousand years ago.
Originally a rectangular, three-
story building of caliche and
adobe, it contains five, contig-
uous room tiers; four rise two
stories, enclosing a three-story-
tier.
This unusual arrangement
was dictated by the Big House’s
function as a temple for accurate
observation and ritual veneration of
the Sun and Moon. The entire edifice
had been sited with level perfection upon a
single-story platform to allow these align-
ments, most of which occurred at precisely
positioned windows or apertures in the
second-story west wall and third-story walls.
Observations were made at various door-
jambs.

paintings or decorations (its exterior lime-
stone casing blocks may have been painted)
but whose internal structure is hard to ex-
plain. Over the so-called King’s Chamber,
with its precisely cut “sarcophagus” is a com-
plex assembly of huge, angled blocks with
spaces between them, usually explained by
conventional archaeologists (people ignorant
of engineering) as a way of relieving the
weight on the chamber and preventing its
collapse. Christopher Dunn, an engineer and
expert in machining, among others, has
pointed out the absurdity of this from an en-
gineering standpoint; he also noted that the
deeper Queen’s Chamber, with a greater
weight of rock above it, has no such relieving
structure.

a machine, have other ideas as to its purpose.

 Moon Phases
ASTROLOGY

Continued from Page 49

during the second half of the cycle as she

grows dark again.
Like a “mini-year,” the waxing and
waning cycle of the Moon is a microcosm of
the seasons. The darkness of the new Moon is
compared to the long nights at Winter Sol-
stice, and the full Moon is akin to Summer
Solstice and the longest day. The eight lunar
phases are also symbolically linked with the
stages in the planting cycle, beginning with
the potential represented by the seed as the
New Moon, and the culmination of the fruit
and the subsequent “death,” and return to
seed, as the closing of the lunar phases.

Lunar Personality Types

Like the apparent annual journey of the
Sun, the Moon’s monthly path is also a circle
of 360 degrees, from the zero point of the
Moon-Sun conjunction. The degrees of sep-
aration, noted below, delineate the shifting
from one phase to the next. The phases of the
Moon’s reflected light are thought to offer
periodic illumination into our individual and
collective nature.
1. New Moon 0-45 degrees. Winter
Solstice—new beginnings, instinctual aware-
ness, emergence, projection, and rebirth. At
the New Moon, the Moon and Sun are con-
junct and in the same sign. Symbolically,
this may represent an emphasis on subjective
and emotional stimulation. There is an in-
nate curiosity. This phase represents the be-
ginning of the planting cycle, when the seed
sends forth new shoots while still in dark-
ness.
2. Crescent Moon 45-90 degrees. Im-
bolc, or Candlemas, Feb 2—Expansion, ini-
tiative, challenge, struggle, and opportunity.
The Moon is growing in light and is halfway
between New and First Quarter Moon. Astro-
logically, the individual may be driven by the
momentum of past lives and have a knee-jerk
reaction to problems. There is an act first,
think later mechanism. The Crescent phase
may provide an impulse to change old ways.
In the planting cycle, the sap begins to run
through branches again as the plant prepares
for a new cycle of growth.
3. First Quarter Moon 90-135 de-
grees. Compared to Spring Equinox. Key
words are growth, expression, and action.
The Moon is waxing and can be either square
or trine to the Sun. Individuals at this lunar
phase usually have a strong will. This calls
for forceful activity, building an energetic
scaffold to hold the structure of new
thought. This phase is often called crisis in
action, and the lesson involves seeing the
consequences of our choices. This represents
the time in the planting cycle when the or-
ganism puts out leaves and branches. It’s a
time of rapid growth.
4. Gibbous Moon 135-180 degrees.
Analogous to Beltane, May 1—half way be-
tween the Vernal Equinox and the Summer
Solstice. Key words are analysis, perfection,
expansion, and development. The waxing
Moon is halfway between First Quarter and
Full Moon. Those born during this phase are
often motivated by intense devotion or zeal
and must learn to trust and become more re-
ceptive. In the planting cycle, the bud begins
to form, holding the promise of the flower.
5. Full Moon 180-225 degrees.
Summer Solstice—Clarity, illumination and
fulfillment. The Moon and Sun are in oppo-
sition with the Earth between. This is the
time of maximum light in the cycle of the
seasons and is the point in the lunar cycle
where conscious creation is possible. Here,
what is felt emotionally can also be “seen.”
It’s a time to pause to understand how crea-
tion takes place. This corresponds to the
time when the flower emerges.
6. Disseminating 270-315 degrees.
August 2—Lammas, Harvest Festival—
Sharing, teaching, distributing, adjusting
and reaping. In this phase, the Moon is
waning, halfway between Full and Last
Quarter Moon. Individuals born at a dissemi-
nating Moon can be driven to spread their
strong ideas with the fire of a crusader, so a
synthesis of beliefs is required. In the
planting cycle, this corresponds to the first
appearance of the plant’s fruit, midway be-
tween the Summer Solstice and the Fall
Equinox.
7. Last Quarter Moon 270-360 de-
grees. Last Quarter Moon—Fall Equinox—
Decline, decrease, cleanse, revise, and reor-
ient. In this phase, the Moon is waning and
square or trine to the Sun. This point is de-
scribed as a crisis in consciousness, as devel-
oping principles must be turned into con-
crete systems or outcomes. We have to learn
and accept what isn’t working. The last
quarter represents the harvest and the time
when the plant dies back, while what is left of
the fruit prepares its seeds for planting.
8. Balsamic Moon 315-360 degrees.
Balsamic Moon—Samhain, Halloween, Oc-
tober 31, midway between the Fall Equinox
and the Winter Solstice, when the veil be-
tween worlds is thin. Key words are letting
go, transition, separation, synthesis, and re-
lease. The lessons of the cycle must be dis-
tilled and turned into “solution.” The Moon
is waning and halfway between Last Quarter
and New Moon. In the final state of the
planting cycle, the plant dies away and life
energy becomes concentrated in the seed
being prepared for the next cycle.
Just as space travel has given us a glimpse
of the side of the Moon we don’t see, the rela-
tionship between Earth and Moon is a
journey of ever-changing, but ever-
increasing, light and consciousness. Every-
thing is always in motion and in relationship
to everything else. If we are wise, we learn to
seize the unique nature of the moment and
flow gracefully into what the future offers.

ADVANCED CIVILIZATIONS OF
PREHISTORIC AMERICA Frank Joseph—
Before Rome gleaming pyramids stood amid
smoking iron foundries from North America’s At-
lantic seaboard to the Mississippi River. On its
east bank, across from today’s St. Louis, flour-
ished a walled city more populous than London
was a thousand years ago, with a pyramid larger—
at its base—than Egypt’s Great Pyramid. During
the 12th century, hydraulic engineers laid out a
massive irrigation network spanning the Amer-
ican Southwest. Who was responsible for such co-
lossal achievements? Where did their mysterious
builders come from, and what became of them?

NEW! is the full report, in-
cluding scientific state-
ments that when stood upright, the figure was nearly
eleven feet high and its head nearly double the size of any

controversial Cardiff Giant. This amazing discovery stands
by itself among those who dare question its authenticity.
But where has the giant disappeared to? Can it still be
viewed by the public, or have archaeological knaves
whisked it away so it cannot be examined under today's
more favorable laboratory conditions?

ANCIENT EGYPT 39,000 BCE Edward F.
Malkowski—Traditional Egyptologists have long resisted
the notion that the architectural achievements of the An-
cient Egyptians required a much more sophisticated tech-
nology than would have existed at that time. Yet, no
records have been found explaining how, why, or who
could have built it. The ancient Egyptians did, however,
record that their civilization resided in the shadow of a
kingdom of “gods” whose reign ended many thousands of
years before their first dynasty. What was this Civilization
X that antiquity’s most accomplished people revered as a
home of the gods? This book examines evidence from his-
torical and technical points of view.

ATLANTIS AND 2012 Frank Joseph—The author
reveals that the Mayan Calendar was brought to Mexico by
survivors of Atlantis. Uncovering the Atlantean influences
in both ancient Egyptian culture and ancient Mesoamer-

of the Olmec civilization in Mexico (the progenitors of the
Maya), the beginning of the first Egyptian dynasty, and the
start of the Mayan Calendar. He explains that the Mayan
Calendar was invented by the combined genius of Atlantis
and Lemuria and describes how it predicts an eternal cycle
of global creation, destruction, and renewal.

Joseph P. Farrell

In this latest installment of his re-
markable series of books on alternative science and his-
tory, Farrell outlines the consistent pattern and strategy of
bankers in ancient and modern times and their desire to
suppress the public development of alternative physics and
energy technologies, usurp the money creating and is-
suing power of the state, and substitute a facsimile of
money-as-debt. Here, Farrell peels back the layers of de-

Ever since the age of the pharaohs, stories have circulated
concerning the existence beneath the sands of Egypt of a

traverse in order to reach an afterlife among the stars.
Through the decipherment of long-forgotten notes and
plans dating from the early nineteenth century, coupled
with astronomical alignments featuring the stars of the
Cygnus constellation, Collins has found the entrance to
Giza’s hidden cave world—a revelation set to cause one of
the greatest controversies since the discovery of Tutank-

After the publication of Worlds

described. Therefore, a few years
later, he published Earth in Upheaval which not only sup-
ports the historical documents by very impressive geolog-

same conclusions just based on the testimony of stones
and bones. This book—a very exactly investigated and
easily understandable book—contains material that com-
pletely revolutionizes our view of the history of the earth.
For all those who have ever wondered about the evolution

FORBIDDEN
ARCHEOLOGY: The
Hidden History of the
Human Race
Michael Cremo & Richard
Thompson
Why has this book generated
such intense reactions from the sci-
entific community? One reason is
HOT! that the book quickly became an un-
derground classic, not only in alter-
native science circles, but amongst inquisitive seekers in
mainstream academia. Its unprecedented comparison of
both accepted and anomalous evidence for human evolu-
tion stunned scientists by showing that extensive anoma-
lous evidence stands up equally well, if not better, than ac-
cepted evidence. One of the prominent themes introduced
in this book is the phenomena of “knowledge filtration.”
This is the process by which scientists and others routinely
accept evidence that supports their preconceptions and the-
ories while rejecting, either consciously or unconsciously,
other evidence that does not uphold their views.

LOST KNOWLEDGE OF
THE ANCIENTS: A
Graham Hancock Reader
Edited by Glenn Kreisberg—
Representing the latest, often con-
troversial, findings in scientific and
historical research, this anthology of
essays selected by Graham Hancock,
bestselling author of Fingerprints of
NEW! the Gods, covers the forefront in al-
ternative theories on history, the or-
igins of civilization, technology, and consciousness, with
topics ranging from quantum philosophy and paranormal
phenomena to the ancient use of electromagnetism, the ef-
fect of cosmic rays on human evolution, and NASA’s cover-
up of ancient Martian civilizations.

LOST TECHNOLOGIES
OF ANCIENT EGYPT
Christopher Dunn
From the pyramids in the
north to the temples in the south,
ancient artisans left their marks all
over Egypt, unique marks that re-
veal craftsmanship we would be
hard pressed to duplicate today.
Drawing together the results of
more than 30 years of research and HOT!
nine field study journeys to Egypt,
Dunn presents a stunning stone-by-stone analysis of key
Egyptian monuments, including the statue of Ramses II at
Luxor and the fallen crowns that lay at its feet. Using
modern digital photography, computer-aided design soft-
ware, and metrology instruments, he exposes the extreme
precision of these monuments and the type of advanced
manufacturing expertise necessary to produce them.

“The only thing new in

this fresh and fasci-
nating collection of his-
torical vignettes, San-
dler restores to memory
important events,

ments that have been
lost to time. Though barely known today, these are major
historical stories, from Ziryab, an eighth century black
slave whose influence on music, cuisine, fashion, and man-
ners still reverberates, to Cahokia, a 12th century city
north of the Rio Grande, which at its zenith contained a
population estimated to have been as high as 40,000 (more
than any contemporary European city), to the worst peace-
time maritime disaster ever, the explosion and sinking of
the Sultana on the Mississippi in 1865.

MARTIAN CODEX: More Reflections
from Mars George J. Haas and William R. Saunders
(The Cydonia Codex)—In this provocative book, the au-
thors use archaeological research discoveries and photo-
graphs from NASA and other space programs to document
the uncanny similarities between Martian and now-extinct
Earth cultures. It begins with a review of the thirty-year
history of documenting the famous “Face on Mars.” De-
tailed analysis shows it as a split-faced structure that pre-
cisely resembles a set of masks from a temple in Cerros,
Mexico. Part two provides additional examples of two-faced
and composite structures all over the red planet.
