Ancient Pyramids , Tombs and Inventions There are thousands of hills, mountains and mounds just in this country and we have to multiply that by thousands more to get how many are in the world. One has to wonder how many contain artifacts or have been misidentified. You are probably thinking how can a mountain be misidentified. I have to tell you a few have been found to be pyramids. The reason we didn’t realize this earlier was the fact they were covered with vegetation and soil, rocks and such. Sometimes the country they were in wanted it this way. They knew they were pyramids, but felt people would come and disturb them. China is one of those countries. They know there are pyramids in their country but it is said they planted over them on purpose. I can’t prove this, but this is what is being said. When two mountains in Bosnia turned out to have been pyramids which were discovered by an archaeologist, it is said he was told to keep it a secret, but refused. Not only did he start to dig, but he invited students from the university to help him. He said he found cut stones and some had vegetation in the cement between the blocks. He decided to get that vegetation dated and the result came back as 20,000 years. In other words, the cement for the pyramid was mixed 20,000 years ago. One of the interesting things about this pyramid is it has become a political football. The powers that be in that country are denying there is a pyramid there at all. I believe, but could be wrong, that the archaeologist is digging from the bottom up so much of the pyramid is still covered. We also have to wonder how many hills are really camouflage for ancient tombs. The ancients were always trying to protect their dead from grave robbers, who would look for graves hoping the bodies were buried with precious objects. In ancient times something which we take for granted today could have been considered one of these objects, such as a fancy bowl or plate. There may come a time when we will develop instruments so sensitive and smart they will be able to detect small objects under the ground from the air, no matter what material they are made out of. We are getting closer to this goal every day. LIDAR, a type of radar has already advanced the field of archaeology by being able to see through foliage and is being used from planes flying over jungles and forests. It has detected hundreds of unknown cities and villages in the Americas. We can’t always dig where we want. Some of the areas, especially in and around mounds are sacred to some races of natives. We wouldn’t want to trample on their beliefs, we have already done too much of that. An example was an observatory we built in Hawaii on a sacred mountain against the will of the native people. There are many other cases I could site, but I think you get the idea. We seem to be finding more pyramids every once in a while. It does make one wonder why there are so many? There are all sorts of theories about this. We have found out some astounding things from ancient graves we never suspected. One incredible fact we found was found in a tomb in Sakura, Egypt. It is known as the Sakura Bird. Why this discovery was so important is the fact it can fly. It demonstrates the ancient Egyptians knew the principle of aerodynamics. This was truly a shock to scientists around the world. Another thing we have found out is meteoric metal was prized by the ancients. King Tut’s tomb contained a strange knife, which was made to the highest standards of the time. Scientists felt there was something strange about the blade and had it examined, only to find the metal was made from the metal of a meteor. I guess they also understood the meteor came from outside the earth. Maybe they felt the gods had sent the meteor to earth, making it a religious object? As we check the craftsmanship of some ancient races, we find some had incredible abilities. One of the things we found was not only the was the accuracy of the pyramid construction of the Great Pyramid so incredible we might not be able to equal it today, but buried in the measurement was something which seemed impossible and that is the measurements indicate accurately the speed of light at 186,000 miles per second. The question is how could this ancient race possibly have known that? Adding to that mystery is a plaque in the temple at Abydos in Egypt which as been there since its construction depicts a helicopter, a UFO and what resembles an airplane. The temple was built in 1279 B.C. Did the ancient Egyptians have a profit who accurately predicted these things? It seems to me some ancient mysteries have no answer right now. Perhaps we will get one in the future. We have also been wrong at times in what we believed about ancient people. An example is we thought they knew nothing about dinosaurs. Then we found out the ancient Greeks exhibited dinosaur bones when they found them. I know this doesn’t mean they completely understood what they found, but they did know giant animals existed at one time and obviously were not around anymore. When the Antikythera mechanism was found in a shipwreck which was over two thousand years old it went into the basement of a museum until many years later when it was realized what it was. Incredibly it was a mechanical computer believed to have been built by the ancient Greeks. It also set the invention of precision metal gears being created at least 1,400 years earlier than thought. We don’t know if it was a one-of-a-kind device created by an ancient genius or there were more of them on ancient ships which were lost. Think about this, if the ancients would have continued improving this device, we could have been thousands of years more advanced than we are today. The same is true for the steam engine the ancient Greeks invented, but failed to realize the impact of. These are only a few of the ancient mysteries we can’t explain. There is nothing paranormal about any of this, even though some believe there is. I have to say I believe we have just given the credit we should have, to ancient intelligence.
