“Arch?ologists Rewrite Timeline Of Bronze And Iron Ages”
On December
27th, 2001, Science
Daily Magazine ran a story with the above headline. It told of
artifacts found in the Midas Mound Tumulus at Gordion, the capital of
ancient Phrygia, a site located to the west of Ankara in Turkey. It also
revealed that the various scientists behind the headline story had used
information gleaned from a study of the Sun, solar cycles, and the tree-ring
records, to redate the Bronze and Iron Ages in the Aegean, and the near
east.
“Among the artifacts found in the Midas Mound Tumulus … is a
shallow bronze bowl with a patch of beeswax on the rim carrying an alphabetical
inscription. The inscription is a precuror to — or contemporary with
— the earliest attested occurances of the Greek alphabet. In addition
to letter forms known from ancient Greek, there is a vertical arrow, known
also from Etruscan inscriptions.”
The recent
news from the Caribbean, that ‘symbols’
and ‘hieroglyphs’ have been
discovered on structures that are now an unbelievable 2,200 feet below
sea-level, and that they are ‘Greek-like’,
but ‘not Greek’, has seen researchers
dig deep into books about ancient inscriptions, where some feel the ‘symbols’
are similar to Etruscan. They were referring to a symbol described as
‘crossed ovals’ and ‘the
American Cross’ amongst others, and this symbol has also
been found in caves on Cuba itself, especially on the mysterious Cuban
Island of Youth.
If they prove
to be Etruscan in origin, then previously accepted histories, and time-frames,
will have to be rewritten yet again, as seems to be the case each time
a new discovery is made somewhere in the world that challenges the standard
paradigms of prehistory developed by the western, Christian, world.
With the
rapid development of new technologies to aid exploration, and the current
climate in favour of inter-disciplinary approaches to the investigation
of prehistory, all manner of arch?ological
anomalies are beginning to surface all over the world. During
the next few years we expect many more ‘paradigm-shattering
discoveries’ to be made both underground, and especially
underwater on the coastal shelves of every continent. Many islands will
be shown to be just the remnants of the ‘high
ground’ and ‘mountain-tops’
of landmasses that were once above sea-level before the series of abrupt
endings of the last Ice Age between 17,000 and 11,600 years ago – and
from way back beyond that again …
