Ancient alien claim review

Ancient alien claims need archaeology before speculation.

远古外星人 / ancient aliens

A source-backed ancient aliens hub covering ancient mysteries, artifacts, megaliths, manuscripts, archaeological explanations, and pseudoarchaeology debunks.

Open cases Read answers All specials

Start with the object

The artifact, site, date, excavation record, museum record, and academic context matter before speculative explanations.

Why pseudoarchaeology spreads

A real ancient achievement can be reframed as alien because the engineering is impressive, not because the alien claim has evidence.

Best comparison cases

Antikythera Mechanism, Gobekli Tepe, Stonehenge, Nazca Lines, Voynich Manuscript, and Baghdad Battery are better inspected as source-backed archaeological puzzles.

THE NEW SIGNATURE OF HORCZICKY AND THE COMPARISON OF THEM ALL. Jan B. Hurych, January 2007) ' Signature No.2.: Since our discovery of official signature of Horczicky IN 2003 (No.1., see our section B10), the second one was discovered in Prague. It was Ren' Zandbergen who discovered it as an exlibris in one of the books owned by Horczicky. It was once the property of Clementinum, see http://www.voynich.nu/extra/img/sinapius1602a.jpg It does not however contain the word "Tepenec" as does the one in the VM, as well as the other two signature. Instead, it quotes the old name "Sinapi" . ' Signature No.3.: Quite recently, in January 2007, Petr Kazil copied another signature in the book in National Library of Prague, on recommendation by Rafal Prinke (it was known in 2000, by Rafal, but it was somehow overlooked until 2007. The photographs by Peter are at http://www.xs4all.nl/~kazil/testfiles/vu/ Our comment: The reaction to our first discovery (year 2003) was slightly negative. It happened to be on some official document signed by Horczicky when he was the heytman of Melnik castle, 1617) and it was objected that it was too "ceremonial" to be used for analysis of Horczicky's name in the VM. When the second signature was found, it was considered as "similar" to the one in the VM, without any further analysis. Now, when the third , non-ceremonial signature was found, one can see clearly it is by the same hand as the first signature. So we are now vindicated and to further prove the similarity of those two "signatures", i.e the first and the third, while the second is quite different. The following comparisons are given. Also, the comparison with "signature" in the VM is made. THE COMPARISON OF SIGNATURES. (Jan Hurych) Both first and third signatures are in Czech, i.e .the words "Jakub z Tepence", in first case are in nominative (the official signature), and slightly modified, in the third, as "Jakuba z Tepence" ( in genitive , since it is the exlibris, ownership), First we show the first signature, slightly magnified: The third signature can be seen by clicking on the link above, here we only compare some letters in the sections. First the letter "k". The picture on the left is the third signature, at the right is the first one. The agreement in shape and form is very good. Then follows the section "Tep", notice the similarity of peculiar letter "p" in both cases. The word in between "Jacobi" and "Tepenec" is in both cases the Czech letter "z" written in the same old fashion, looking like number "3". The meaning of "z" in Czech language is the same as in Latin "de". Even here is certain similarity. For comparison, the third picture is the same symbol from the VM, also in between words "Jacobi" and "Tepenec". It was guessed once it was really "de" or a Greek letter "delta", the shorthand for Latin "de". None of this can be seen here and it seems it is the same "z" ( meaning the sign in the space before capital "T"). Of course, we cannot be sure yet, the symbol is hardly visible. Before we carry on, some words about the second, that is the "Sinapi" signature. There is no doubt that "Sinapi" is former Horczicky's name (before he received his title), latinized. The word "inscriptus" added may or may not confirm it was written by him personally. However, the comparison with two other signatures is very difficu

Rudolph II, Raphael Mnishovsky and the 600 ducats Discussion of the Voynich manuscript often returns to the well-known sentence in which Johannes Marcus Marci tells Athanasius Kircher what he knows about it. Retulit mihi D. Doctor Raphael Ferdinandi tertij Regis tum Boemiae in lingua boemica instructor dictum librum fuisse Rudolphi Imperatoris, pro quo ipse latori qui librum attulisset 600 ducatos praesentarit, authorem uero ipsum putabat esse Rogerium Bacconem Anglum. ego judicium meum hic suspendo. How should we interpret this complex sentence? Why not start with a shortened version in which we cut out people's titles, omit one clause which is certainly ambiguous, and modernise the punctuation. Retulit mihi ... Raphael ... 'librum fuisse Rudolphi'. 'Authorem' uero 'ipsum' putabat 'esse Rogerium'. Ego judicium meum hic suspendo. This is straightforward. Two verbs of speech introduce two pieces of reported speech in the accusative and infinitive construction. Verb: retulit (perfect indicative, 'he once told me') Direct speech: liber erat Rudolphi , 'the book was Rudolph's' Verb: putabat (imperfect indicative, 'it was his opinion') Direct speech: author ipse est Rogerius , 'the author is Roger' By the accusative and infinitive rule, erat (imperfect indicative) becomes fuisse (perfect infinitive) and est (present indicative) becomes esse (present infinitive). The final sentence is simple. So far Marci has told us three things. What Raphael once told him about Rudolph. What Raphael thought was the identity of the author. That Marci has no opinion of his own. But the first piece of reported speech continues: pro quo ipse latori qui librum attulisset 600 ducatos praesentarit Since this is a relative clause ( pro quo... ) inside reported speech the accusative and infinitive construction does not apply. Instead nominative and accusative remain as they were and the verbs become subjunctive. To reconstruct the direct speech we must convert the verbs back to indicative. The obvious way of doing so is this: pro quo ipse latori qui librum attulerat 600 ducatos praesentavit attulerat (pluperfect indicative) becomes attulisset (pluperfect subjunctive) praesentavit (perfect indicative) becomes praesentarit (perfect subjunctive, also written praesentaverit ) In that case Raphael, having said that Rudolph owned the book, continued 'and he personally gave 600 ducats to the person who brought the book'. This makes perfect sense. Rudolph loved books and had the funds to pay extravagantly for them. Unfortunately, here for the first time the Latin is ambiguous. It might also be that the direct speech form of praesentarit is praesentavi (first person not third person). Raphael may be saying that he, Raphael, presented the ducats. Can we resolve the ambiguity? The word ipse , which sometimes disambiguates the accusative and infinitive construction, is no help here. The key, it seems to me, is to consider why this piece of reported speech is a relative clause in the first place. The reason, clearly, is to attach it to the words that went before, not the words which come after. We have been told one thing about Rudolph, that he owned the book, and now we are being told another, that he paid for it in person. If, on the other hand,

(45.7 cm.), Width: 9.2 in. (23.3 cm.), Plaster cast made by John W. Olsen in 1979 at Arizona State Museum from a cast that was obtained from Grover Krantz (ASM Catalog No. 2011-470-1a) Image Text by Dr. John A. McClelland, retired Osteology Lab Manager and NAGPRA Coordinator, October 2011 Legends of wild humanoid creatures are as old as human history and span the globe. Names and other details vary, but common traits of these undocumented animals are bipedalism, gigantic size, hair-covered bodies, and a potential to cause harm. A Native American tradition in the Pacific Northwest tells of a giant hair-covered ogre named Tsonoqua who steals children and food. This is likely the origin of the Sasquatch or Bigfoot legend. Bigfoot was popularized in 1958, when news media picked up a story about Ray Wallace, a road contractor working in northern California, who made plaster casts of giant footprints that he found near his worksite. Hundreds of similar footprints and a few handprints have now been reported; some were clearly made by bears, some are fraudulent (one of Ray Wallace’s relatives later found carved wooden feet matching some of the footprint casts), and many others remain unexplained. This footprint cast is associated with the most celebrated Bigfoot sighting of modern times. In October 1967 Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin ventured into the woods in search of Bigfoot near where Wallace found his Bigfoot tracks. In Bluff Creek, they sighted a creature strolling through a clearing and they managed to film a short sequence from a reported distance of about 80 feet. The resulting movie is grainy and difficult to interpret, but clearly shows something unlike any animal known to inhabit the region. To some this is incontestable proof that Bigfoot lives among us, but to others it is merely a man or a woman in a gorilla suit. This handprint cast is a copy of the original made by Ivan Marx. Grover Krantz, a physical anthropologist who studied the anatomy of Bigfoot hand and foot impressions, found many details in this impression that he thought were too difficult to fake. Others were not convinced; the original museum catalogue card for this item has the note: “This ‘handprint’ is almost certainly NOT genuine!” Despite many eyewitness accounts

Walking Tall Guilty Frozen Assets The Vanity Tax Addicted Youth Silicone Valley Fatal Lapse Shooting Stars Finding Love Again Auction Action Unidentified - John Dickerson Nearly ten years after the most widespread, documented UFO sighting in history, Valley astronomers and eyewitnesses are still speculating on just what flew over Phoenix that night. When Robert Brewer first saw brake lights and traffic stopped on the 51, the Scottsdale pastor and PhD assumed there had been an accident. 'They're all looking up. What's going on?' Brewer's friend asked as he pulled his car to the side of the road. To this day, Brewer doesn't believe in aliens or space ships, but he does know the silent, hovering lights he watched for about 20 minutes on March 13, 1997, were unlike anything he'd seen before or since. 'It was like the first time you walk to the edge of the Grand Canyon. I was literally breathless,' Brewer says. Along the shoulder of the 51, bystanders watched silently. Some were on their knees. Others raised their arms. From Prescott to Tucson, hundreds of Arizona residents stood in awe of the massive lights. The witness reports read the same: a V of huge, unblinking, hovering lights parading in silent unison across the night sky. Almost 10 years after the sighting, Valley astronomers, pilots and psychiatrists are still searching for an explanation to what was arguably the most documented UFO sighting ever, now dubbed the Phoenix Lights. Among those still affected are former UFO skeptics. Explanations vary from military tests to extraterrestrial visitors, but the eyewitnesses do agree on one thing: 'You had to be there to really understand.' This was not like anything from Earth.' 'I'VE SEEN FLARES BEFORE. THESE WEREN'T FLARES.' On a recent cool October evening, media personality and astronomer 'Dr. Sky' Steve Kates is hosting a black-tie audience under a starlit Gilbert sky. Kates is a regular on TV and radio programs discussing the astronomically unexplained. Kates doesn't believe in aliens. In the nine years since the Phoenix Lights sightings, he has hosted hundreds of discussions about the phenomena. Tonight, between live phone interviews with world-renowned astronomers and former astronauts, Kates says experimental government aircraft are responsible for the Phoenix Lights. 'I think it's a very major event that took place and a matter of national security,' he says. 'Two separate events took place the night of March 13, 1997.' Kates believes a very large, silent surveillance blimp flew over Arizona while diversionary flares hoped to distract any Hale-Bopp comet watchers from noticing, adding that one need only interview so many sane, educated eyewitnesses to conclude the Phoenix Lights were more than just flares. Among the sane, educated type described by Kates are Mark and Celia Chapman, neither of whom believe in little green men or messages from the stars. But when asked if they're familiar with the Phoenix Lights, the Honeywell engineer and healthcare consultant exuberantly recounts their 1997 sighting of the lights. 'We were sitting in the spa.

FAQ

Did aliens build ancient monuments?

MysteryAtlas does not treat that as established. Ancient alien claims need stronger evidence than complexity or surprise.

Are ancient mysteries real?

Many ancient mysteries are real as archaeological or historical puzzles, even when alien explanations are weak.

What is pseudoarchaeology?

Pseudoarchaeology uses archaeological objects or sites to support claims that are not well supported by evidence or method.
