Technology of the Ancients: the device
The more I read about and study so-called "Ancient Civilisations", the more I begin to realise how totally inappropriate this phrase is. What emerges from the artistic and written legacy and mythology they left to posterity is that their cultures were as advanced as and, possibly, more so than ours in certain areas. If you believe the 'experts' then technology is supposed to have "progressed" and "evolved" to the present state of affairs, often by "trial and error". It's like saying that we're the only life in the Universe, an arrogant supposition. Archaeologists have, so far, failed to answer how the pyramids were built [the Great Pyramid has so many enigmas and anomalies], how the Olmecs and Easter Islanders carved and transported their stone heads, and also explain other awe inspiring achievements, as the 'evidence' doesn't survive. Therefore, they put forward theories and test them based upon the "primitive technology" of our ancestors. Sadly, they don't seem have got beyond the rope and roller stage... I think the people who built and erected these structures would laugh if they saw some of our solutions! But how do you make a 15 ton stone block perform a 90 degree turn 400 feet up?!
There are countless ruins scattered around the world built by long forgotten civilisations, some now under the sea, as in the Caribbean and around the shores of the Atlantic, on islands across the Pacific, high in the mountains and deep in the rainforests... They have left us "clues" to "decipher". Just think of the millennial anticipation about the Hall of Records at Giza. Some writers have found various "similarities" and "links" between civilisations, whether religious, architectural or written, some of the cultures thousands of miles apart. I would like to think that, at some point in the past, there was a global Super Culture, an early World Wide Web of communication and trade. Just look at how many mythologies contain a mysterious western or eastern land of origin, depending on geographical viewpoint. Call it the Atlantean Empire if you like... .
Was the famous American psychic Edgar Cayce a fraud? Are his "Atlantean" readings spurious? I don't think so. When researching my first article I came across an increasing amount of evidence of technology either "alien" [maybe literally] to us or of the kind we like to think of as "modern" or "futuristic". [Ancient Sanskrit texts hint at nuclear warfare, and what about Ezekiel's Chariot of God?]. The device detailed in this piece is one such enigma... Future articles of mine will seek to explore ideas such as these.
There were two rings, an outer one and an inner one, of some kind of metal, linked by tubes at positions relative to the four cardinal points of the compass [i.e., N, S, E and W]. Thus, from above, the device resembled the astronomical symbol for Earth, an encircled cross [which, if you've read Plato's Atlantean accounts is what the Royal City would've resembled from the air. Celtic cross designs are derived from this city]. The outer ring joined four stone obelisks and was inside the square platform the device stood on. The obelisks, one standing at each corner, housed a two-tiered metal column, the upper part an ankh [Life], the lower a djed [endurance]. [Recall the Papyrus of Ani from my article?] The loop of the ankh held a sphere or crystal [transparent or opaque]. The inner ring held a similar crystal and was housed in a Giza type pyramid, but considerably smaller in scale. I'm not sure if there was a rod internally connecting the device and capstone as Ray Brown found…
Below the pyramid was a rectangular chamber [this arrangement was similar to the room found by Ray Brown], higher than it was wide, a bit like an up-ended matchbox. In the centre was a metal cage housing a glass cylinder. Within the cylinder was a core emitting a pulsating blue-white light and a low throbbing sound. [In my article the Cay Sal Pyramid discovered by Ari Marshall emitted similar pulses.] As the power increased, the sound and light became more intense, and the sphere glowed brightly and crackled. Pulses of energy travelled along the tubes mentioned earlier to and between the obelisks and their globes. When pulses collided there was a brilliant flash and two or more became one and more powerful. If the power level became too high there was an ear-piercing shrill and a blinding white beam shot up from the apex [read capstone] of the pyramid. This was either a warning of core instability or to siphon off excess energy [Recall Karen Getsla's ring of white energy above the strange stone cylinders?] What the device did, I don't know. Maybe you could tell me!!
