Recently, I've been wanting to know about pre-Sumerian and pre-Egyptian civilizations. Little did I realize that there was such a debate about: 1) the time of the origins of "modern" civilization and 2) the possibility of a very advanced early civilization.Not only that, but there are researchers who contend that that early civilization was Atlantis! Bauval's Message of the Sphinx, which I've written about earlier, does assert that the Giza complex was essentially a legacy handed down from a parent culture.
Forbidden History starts to raise some questions about the orthodox theories of the origins of cultures that I've encountered through my readings. One of the main ones, concerning the pyramid complex at Giza is the supposed water erosion of the Sphinx. Is it from preciptiation, or is it from diverted water that surrounded the statue? Or is it really just wind erosion?
Other questions are: 1) who were the Olmecs? 2) were the pyramids a power plant and not "merely" a tomb? 3) did the Egyptians receive the dying embers of Atlantis? 4) was there really an Atlantis?
It all makes me curious about underwater ruins, what may be below the ice in Antarctica and why it may be that some sacred structures are oriented 15-degrees East of (current) true North. Was this due to a global, catastrophic plate shift? And also, are Egyptologists really "experts" on ancient Egyptians? How did they get 70 ton blocks 175 feat up into the air! If they truly made obelisiks in a matter of months, why do Christopher Dunn's calculations show that using the tools that ancient Egyptians supposedly used it would have taken 60 years to make such an obelisk!
The anomalous data begs for more colloaborative and inter-disciplinary inquiry! People like me want to know!!
