The Ishango Bone


Description: A bone from baboon discovered in 1960 by Jean de Heinzelin de Braucourt in Belgian
Congo near Lake Edward. Dated back to between 9,000BC-20,000BC. May be it's a
tally stick. At the top of the bone there is a piece of quartz. Possibly for writing. There
are 3 rows of carved notches. The markings on two of these rows each add to 60. The
first row is consistent with a number system based on 10, since the notches are
grouped as 20+1, 20-1, 10+1, and 10-1, while the second row contains the prime
numbers between 10 and 20! A third seems to show a method for multiplying by 2 that
was used in later times by the Egyptians. Additional markings suggest that the bone
was also used a lunar phase counter.

Description: Dinosaurs on a stone from Dr. Cabreras collection. The immense collection of ancient
carved Ica Stones called "gliptoliths" comprise a sophisticated library left behind by an
ancient lost civilization including images of medical transplants and blood transfusions,
men with dinosaurs, and advanced technology such as telescopes and surgical
equipment. Dr. Javier Cabrera spent over thirty years of his life endeavoring to decode
the mystery of the stones. Early Spanish chronicles reported similar stones found in
ancient pre-conquest tombs; Cabrera's collection numbers upward of 11,000 stones
with more than l5, 000 known to exist. But the collection is controversial because there
are faked and original examples.

The Tomb of Pakal
Description: One of the most important structures in Palenque is the Tomb of Pakal, discovered in
1952 by Alberto Ruz Lhuillier inside the Temple of the Inscriptions. As the crypt is
larger than the entrance to the chamber, it is thought that it was built before the
pyramid. Pakal's body was placed in the limestone, body-shaped sarcophagus and then
it was sealed with a 3.8 by 2.2 meter stone cover. Once the burial rites were completed
and the chamber sealed with a layer of stucco, five or six sacrificial victims were laid in
the small antechamber. The stairway inside the temple was filled with rubble, jade,
pottery and shell offerings. A stone airshaft, called a "psychoduct," was built starting at
a notch in the funeral chamber door and rising to the upper floor of the temple.
According the late Linda Schele, a renowned researcher, the Maya believed that the
shaft allowed a mythological serpent to rise from Pakal's tomb to the place occupied by
his descendants.

Erich von Däniken inside the Great Pyramid
Description: Erich von Däniken inside the Queens Chamber of the Great Pyramid showing the begin
of the "Gantenbrink shaft". The german engineer Rudolf Gantenbrink discovered in
1993 with his Robot UPUAUT after more than 60 meter inside this shaft a polished
door. Erich von Däniken predicted on the "Daily Grail's Gantenbrink Petition" what will
be behind this door. He wrote: "Behind the door there is a small shaft, and then a wall.
Break the wall!" - The 2001 discovery according to the words of Dr. Zahi Hawass? "We
can see another sealed door, it looks to me like it is sealing something. It seems that
something important is hidden there. This is one of the first major discoveries in the
Great Pyramid in some 130 years, and now what we need is time for further analysis."

Fingerprints of the Gods?

Description: It seems amazing that with Abu Ghourab being generally accesible to tourists nobody
seems to have ever become interested in those very peculiar markings on one of the
solitary blocks. What precisely is it? Could it be that it is Nature's own working? But
WHY does it clearly remind an imprint of a gigantic hand (4 fingers)? And how is it
possible to imprint anything in STONE? Could it be that this was no ordinary stone,
after all, but rather a stone pulp? Could giants have lived in ancient Egypt?

Borobudur Temple

Description: Viewed from above, Borobudur takes the form of a giant mandala, symbolically
depicting the path of the bodhisattva from samsara to nirvana, through the story of
Sudhana described in the Gandavyuha Sutra, a part of the Avatamsaka Sutra.
Representing the existence of the universe, Borobudur perfectly reflects the Buddhist
cosmology, which divides the universe into three intermingled separate levels. The
three levels are Kamadhatu (world of desire), Ruphadhatu (world of forms), and
Arupadhatu (world of formlessness). The hidden base of Borobudur was originally the
first level, which contains the gallery of Kamadhatu level. On the last three circular
uppermost terraces, 72 stupas circle the huge main stupa on the top of this monument.
The circular form represents the eternity without beginning and without end, a
superlative, tranquil, and pure state of the formless world. There are no reliefs on the
three circular terraces. All but the largest central stupas on the upper levels originally
contained a (more or less) life-size statue of the Buddha (kneeling). Many of these
statues are missing or damaged. There are also many alcoves along the lower levels
which used to contain similar statues. Again, many of these are missing or damaged.
The whole volume of this massive andesite monument reaches the number of
56.000m2 consists of at least 2.000.000 stone blocks.
