Isnt it more likely that it was a mega wave or tsunami the likes of which none of us can imagine..? "The floodgates of Heaven were opened and the foundations of Earth were broken apart. The surrounding waters poured over the land and broke upon the mountains. The storehouses of the winds burst their bolts asunder, so storms and whirlwinds were loosed, to hurl themselves upon the Earth. In the seething waters and howling gales all buildings were destroyed, trees were uprooted and mountains cast down. There was a time of great heat, then came a time of bitter cold. The waves over the waters did not rise and fall but seethed and swirled, there was an awful sound above." Could also be the result of a fucked up water landing by a bigger sized space ship, (or UFO if you will), cause the pilot was drunk or passed out. Every great civilization has drugs. |

The one with the black eyes and the chevrons across the chest. It looks very much like examples of 'Anicent Aliens/Astronaughts, that I have seen theru the years. With all the statues of women that they showed that have apparently been found there, it does make one wonder. The story about the Watcher, or called by other names in differant texts than the Bible, all pretty much whisper of this 'co-mingling' happening. Is this the place where it occured? From the timeline, it sounds plausible to me. Something else caught my eye too in that video showing the various carved stones there... The stone with the 3 arches at the top. It looks like each arch has been assigned an Animal to denote it. Is this a depiction of the various Worlds that the Native American prophecies speak of...The Great Purification that has happened before the current 1 we know.? Sure does look that way to me...like those arches are depicting 'Leaps of life', and the transformation that happens when the leaps occur. The builders of this place were not just cavemen...I believe they were much more advanced than they are being credited as being. I don't believe they were able to carve those stones, without using some sort of 'chisel' to do it. From an artist's eye...there is no way all those details could have been put in there , simply using a harder stone to carve them. I think they were errected by the reminanats from the Third World, the survivors of the great Change that happened last time we were in this part of Space. Seeing how carbon dating has been shown to be not as reliable as we previously believed ( because Newton's work was found to not be correct. Everything does not decay at the same rate, all the time)....could very well be even earlier than what the Scientists know...maybe closer to 12-13,000 years old? The same amount of time that passes between our orbit of the Galactic Center....crossing the Galactic Plane. Last Edited by Woodsprite on 07/12/2011 10:46 AM |

The earliest rings are the biggest and most sophisticated, technically and artistically. As time went by, the pillars became smaller, simpler, and were mounted with less and less care. Finally the effort seems to have petered out altogether by 8200 B.C. Göbekli Tepe was all fall and no rise. Atlantean civilization peaked just before the destruction of the city and the global flood... sites such as this would have been missionary sites constructed just prior to the destruction or just after, as the timeline fits very well with the city having been sunk around 10,000 BCE. There are numerous examples of civilizations which had high physical and spiritual technology and petered out over time... one group, called the Merkabah Riders, represent a level of ritual and spiritual technology lost for 10,000 years or so... This site most likely lost ritual significance as newer and more functional temple complexes arose in Egypt and Babylon proper. It's possible the last constructions were made by members of a defunk cult to the Atlanteans, who were worshipping the original builders of the site and imitating their practices with steadily less knowledge and skill.
