"It is amazing that
such sophisticated people, as we
judge
ourselves
to be, do not even know who we are."
-- Brad Steiger,

October 1978
"History is the lie currently agreed upon" - Voltaire
Cocaine, Tobacco and the Pharaohs
There
is much evidence of pre Columbian voyages to the Americas, all of it
disputed by the mainstream. The reason being that it conflicts with the
linear history that science and educational teaching presents, not
forgetting the political implications. The idea imposed is that of a
linear and steady rise in civilisation and knowledge with the more distant
past being the more primitive. This in turn, by default, supports a pseudo
evolutionary theory and the unspoken implication that mankind today has
reached a higher standard of intellectual development than his or her
historical predecessors; a continuing process that goes on without the
need for proof or explanation and totally unsupported by historical
fact.
A brief outline of finds that seem to support trans-oceanic
contact can be found at the following link, but there is much, much
more:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-Columbian_trans-oceanic_contact
Columbus' discovery of the Americas is ideal for academia
because it is obviously better documented and researched than earlier
discoveries. The discovery of cocaine and nicotine in the bodies of
Egyptian mummies by Dr. Svetlana Balabanova et al constitutes a
spanner in the works of the long accepted theories of academicians and is
strongly rejected by them. The scientific community, who see themselves as
an elite hierarchy of the collective consciousness, will conveniently
forget it, or ridicule it, or claim that their fellow scientists in
Germany are incompetent, anything but introduce something new into the
cosseted cloisters of academia.
An outline of the discovery and an
interview with those involved can be found at the following

A commonsensical method for dealing with non standard
theories would be to collect them and place them on a back burner until
they represent a body of evidence in their own right, or not. Science
tends to hand wave them away, hoping they will be forgotten - many of them
are.
"Schafer (1993) argues
that, "the detection of pharmacologically active substances in mummified
material never proves their use prior to death." He argues that such
compounds could have been introduced as part of the mummification
process. The suggestion is that (especially) nicotine could have
been introduced around the mummy (and subsequently absorbed into its
tissue) as an insecticide (being used as a preservative) within relatively
modern times. A similar criticism was raised by Bjorn (1993) who
wondered if nicotine might have been absorbed by the mummies from
cigarette smoke in the museums where the mummies have been
preserved. According to Schafer, the only way to show that the
compounds were taken into the bodies while they were alive would be to
find different concentrations at different distances from the scalp - a
procedure not undertaken by the authors..."

"Introduction", seen as part of the mummification
process still points to the substances being present in Egypt at the time
of the death of the mummy.
The links seem to indicate that the original
analysts were aware of modern contamination. The criticisms seem to be
part of an uninformed debunking process that hides under the guise of
scientific rigour.
A further
criticism is that there have been no South American artifacts found in
Egypt and vice versa. The problem with this argument is that the
Phoenicians are well documented in providing hard-to-get commodities for
the Egyptians and the Phoenicians are known to have guarded there sources
of supply with great care. Traders in high value cargos would have taken
high value goods like drugs or murex to trade for cocaine and are not
likely to have brought back pots and pans; the dangers and privations of
the ocean crossing compensated for by the great value of the
cargo.

All of the arguments that claim there was no contact with the
Americas are defeated by the question, "Where did the cocaine come from?"
The cocaine itself is a highly plausible proof in favour of
contact.
In spite of constant denials to the contrary, a complex of caves has been located beneath the Giza complex.
Bradshaw rock
paintings, or the Bradshaws, hundreds of thousands of examples of
a distinctive style of rock art found in the Kimberley region of North
Western Australia. Carbon dated at over 17,000 years old there is much
debate as to wether these art forms are the work of a pre aboriginal
race.
Among them is a carved side-face, in about 4cm in relief of a
Caucasian, (European) face that must predate any know visits or
colonisation from the west.

From Matriarchy to Patriarchy: Year
3000 BCE
The Greatest Divide in
Human Genealogy and History.
"You hear a lot of talk about the
Neolithic Revolution--the gradual adoption and spread of agriculture,
animal husbandry and town life by our prehistoric European ancestors--but
the most important epoch in the course of civilization
goes largely unnoticed in the history books. That was the abrupt shift
from matriarchy and worship of the Great Goddess to the warrior-based
governments and language stocks of the steppe-dwelling Indo-Aryan
barbarians who invaded Old Europe beginning in the late fourth millennium
BCE." ...Read more at:

What the above seems to be saying, is that
the people of these ancient times were not war-like and that
they lived during a 'Golden Age' of peace, in just the way that the
rejected myths and legends tell us. Looking around the world today, it's
hard to imagine a reason to consider
them primitive.
The Gympie
Pyramid 
"a nice little mystery that Australian
Academia likes to ignore
Probably one of the most interesting things
about the Gympie Pyramid is that the entire Academic and Archaeological
"Establishment" of Australia likes to pretend that it is not there and
refuses to do any form of serious investigation into it. More over
they refuse to apply basic science to test the "myth".
The quote above is an excellent example of this strange and unscientific
attitude. A thorough, scientific survey and excavation of the site would
solve the mystery one way or the other; but no, the old head in the sand
technique is preferred.
The fact is that the Gympie Pyramid is a
serious, famous and unexplained archaeological anomaly that causes hackles
to rise on the necks of our most learned historians and archaeologists,
they gnash their teeth and tug their hair like Spanish Inquisitors
confronted by an unrepentant heretic but they still refuse to go
there.
Why is that?"

Egypt's
Oldest Known Art Identified, Is 15,000 Years
Old
"In the meantime, the finding has raised a big question:
How were people in Western Europe and southern Egypt
producing almost identical artwork at the same time?."..
..."The art
is so similar that it reflects a similar mentality, a similar stage of
development," http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/07/070711-egypt-artwork.html
The Anglo-Saxon
Chronicle for the year 793 records: "In this year
terrible portents appeared over Northumbria and sadly affrightened the
inhabitants: there were exceptional flashes of lightning, and firey dragons were seen flying in the air. A great famine followed
soon upon these signs, and a little after that in the same year on the
ides of June the harrying of the heathen miserably destroyed God's church
in Lindisfarne by rapine and slaughter."
