Ancient Sightings - Utsuro Bune (Hollow Ship)



Legend of the “Utsuro Bune”:

  
  Japan has many old legends of its culture and history, and huge quantities of them are still now unknown to the occidental people. One of these stories and legends has caught the eye of many ancient astronaut theorists.

 


  This story takes place on February 22 in the spring of 1803, near the village of Harashagahama north of Japan, when something strange washed up onto the shore. The strange craft measuring 3m tall and 5m wide was said to be made from red sandalwood and metal. It also had openings made of glass or crystal.
    

  This spread curiosity in the village and people rushed down to see the unusual object. This object became known as Utsuro Bune (“Hollow ship”).
  Inside the craft, the people saw strange writing in a language and style unknown to any of them. And something that stunned the villagers was that, they found a young lady inside de craft holding a strange box.

  When she spoke, she spoke in an unknown language, and in her arms she held a timber box about 60cm in length. To the people, it appeared as though the box was very special to the young woman and she did not allow people to touch it.

  The villagers didn't know what to do with this strange lady, she didn't s spoke their language, all she did was smile or look blank. Later an elder suggested that maybe she was a outcast from another island or region and that her punishment was to be abandoned into the sea, and that her husbands head was in the box, according old Japanese traditions. The villagers were worried if the government found out they were protecting or hiding a outcast, possibly a criminal, so as a solution they put back in her "boat" and pushed it back into the sea for it to drift away.

Ancient Sightings - Nuremberg Gazette



Ancient Sightings:

 Nuremberg Gazette:

   In Germany, April 14th 1561, the citizens of the city of Nuremberg awoke to what was described as a very frightful spectacle. Various strange objects were spotted in the sky, engaged in what appear to be an aerial battle. Could they have been seeing a close encounter with an alien civilization?  The people see this incredible site as the Sun is raising from the horizon, they see what they can describe as shining cones, circular objects, and cross shaped vessels, then these objects start emitting other, smaller circular objects. These spheres were seen for a long period of time, apparently they were fighting a battle over the city.

   The battle was so evident that people in Nuremberg were able to predict which side was wining because; some of the objects apparently began to catch fire and crashed into the ground and disappeared in a cloud of smoke and fire. Other objects were seen to fly off from the battle in direction of the Sun. This entire event has become memorialized in a broadsheet, a medieval newspaper.  This event is called the Nuremberg Gazette.


   Also a broadsheet of Basel, Switzerland reports a similar event in 1566. People saw a proliferation of circles above the city.

Ancient Lost Scrolls - Book of Enoch


The Book of Enoch:

  Some of the theories that have been trying to explain these ancient maps is that someone many centuries ago went up to the sky and saw the shape of the Earth and its continents.

   There is a Biblical figure called Enoch, the grandfather of Noah, from the Stories of the Deluge. Enoch is not “officially” part of Bible, he is only mentioned in there, but in the Apocryphal Texts, normally referred as the “Dead Sea Scrolls”, there are volumes and volumes talking about him, among them there is the Book of Enoch. He is the first one to write in the first person – “I did, I saw.”  In one of the ancient texts, it is said that this man had been taken by God for 375 years. He was taken up into the sky, up there he met the “Highest” or “God”, and the Highest says to his servants: “You teach this young man, in our language and writing”, so then he begins to write books. After, the teachings he learns the servants names, and he knows their profession.

  In one of his texts Enoch writes:


 "And over that abyss I saw a place which had no firmament of heaven above it, and no foundation of earth beneath it, and no water above it, and no birds upon it; it was a void place. And there I saw a terrible thing: seven stars, like great burning mountains and like spirits, that petitioned me." (Enoch 18:11-12)
  

   Here we see perfectly the description of Enoch in a spacecraft in space, referring as the emptiness of the space void. He also says that he saw 7 stars burning like fire. That we can say that those were the seven planets (except the Earth) or other 7 spacecrafts near Enoch. 

 

Ancient Lost Scrolls - Zheng he Map


Zheng he Map:


  The Zheng He Map was made in 1418 in China, by Zheng He an explorer, diplomat and fleet admiral, who commanded voyages to Southeast Asia, South Asia, the Middle East, and East Africa, by order of the Ming government. The Image underneath is the map that Zheng He painted and described to be Earth.

  One interesting thing is that Zheng He’s fleet only voyaged in the Indian, eastern Africa and a little bit of the Pacific Ocean, he didn’t ventured himself in the Atlantic or even the Mediterranean.
  How could he describe a world, a round world, which he had never even visited?

  In the map we see perfect details about the American Continent, that wasn’t discovered until 1492. Also, in Europe, we see the Iberian Peninsula and the Italian Peninsula perfectly portaited considering the age of the map.

Underwater Mysteries - Sunken City


Underwater City:

   
  In the year 2000, while mapping the sea floor in  the West of Cuba, a Research Expedition, lead by Paulina Zelitsky, spotted symmetrical stone structures, deep below the water.

  Remarkably they were nearly 1 kilometer down, so the investigators had to use probes and remote operated cameras, so that they could obtain any information, and they did. They found large stones, placed perfectly one on top of another, also rectangular 90º degree angle cuts in the stone. This exploration found huge stone blocks in pyramid shapes, other more circular, most were gigantic reaching 12 meter of height and weighting several tones. And, out of the dark sea floor, 30 geometrical structures emerged, appearing to be the remains of streets, buildings, tunnels and pyramids, all that just laying there, awaiting to be re-discovered. With this we have a pretty good evidence of an ancient prehistoric civilization that probably dates back to tens of thousands of years ago.

   Using dating techniques on the present volcanic ashes in the area, geologists estimate that this area once suffered a cataclysmic earthquake that pressed the ground to go underwater. And that was at least 12.000 years ago; it means that, that culture who built this ancient site must have been living there for, as some British archaeologists say, 40.000 – 30.000 years ago, during the time of Mammoths, and before the Ice Age. This evidences come from nearby human fossils.

  This finding in my opinion revolutionized the history of Human evolution. How can the journalists and top class researchers not invest more on this kind of findings? It’s not only in Cuba, but also in Japan, India, the Mediterranean, all over the world we found ancient building complexes deep underwater, dating several thousands of years ago.
