The Morien Institute - The events of July 16th to 22nd 1994, when the remnants of a fragmenting comet, P/Shoemaker-Levy 9, bombarded the surface of Jupiter causing fireballs many times the size of our own planet, were an abrupt wake-up call even for those who were aware of them. The historical sciences generally, and archæology in particular, have collectively painted a picture of the past as if our planet stands alone in empty space. Nothing could be further from reality. Our restless planet exists in a solar system that has experienced a very dynamic history over the past 20 to 30 millennia, and it is only from this perspective that the true history of human civilisation will ever be fully understood. The Morien Institute archive therefore contains relevant material from many disciplines, and asks questions such as Where are the sacred places of the ancient celtic druids? How did ancient Peruvians mark out the geoglyphs on the Nazca Plain? Were the numerous underwater megaliths built during the last ice age? How old is the Great Sphinx on the Giza Plateau in Egypt? How many impact craters are there on the Earth?

The events of July 16th to 22nd 1994, when the remnants of a fragmenting comet, P/Shoemaker-Levy 9, bombarded the
surface of Jupiter causing fireballs many times the size of our own planet, were an abrupt wake-up call even for those
who were aware of them. The historical sciences generally, and archæology in particular, have collectively painted
a picture of the past as if our planet 'stands alone in empty space'. Nothing could be further from reality. Our
restless planet exists in a solar system that has experienced a very dynamic history over the past 20 to 30
millennia, and it is only from this perspective that the true history of human civilisation will ever be fully
understood. The Morien Institute archive therefore contains relevant material from many disciplines

 

Unfortunately an explosion and fire at the offices of our hosting company in Texas put all servers offline since last Saturday afternoon. They are now back up and runnning but
further disruption is expected over the next week or so.

We apologise for any further disruption to this news service
but these matters are beyond our control
