Chinese Made First Use of Diamond

Chinese Made First Use of Diamond

May 17, 2005 Stone age craftsmen in China were polishing objects using diamond 2,000 years before anyone else had the same idea, new evidence suggests. Quartz was previously thought to be the abrasive used to polish ceremonial axes in late stone age, or neolithic, China. But the investigations of a Chinese-US team of scientists indicate that quartz alone would not have been able to achieve such lustrous finishes. The team reports its diamond findings in the journal Archaeometry.Harvard University physicist Peter Lu and colleagues studied four ceremonial burial axes, the oldest of which dates to about 4,500 years ago. The team used X-ray diffraction and electron microprobe analysis. This determined that the most abundant mineral in the axes was corundum, known as ruby in its red form and sapphire in all other colours. Hard case The majority of prehistoric stone objects are traditionally thought to have been fashioned from rocks containing minerals no harder than quartz. But corundum is one of the hardest minerals known to science, second only to diamond. What the researchers found even more intriguing were the finely polished surfaces of the axes, which reflect an image like a mirror. To test their ideas, the researchers took a small stone sample from one of the axes, an artefact from the Liangzhou culture, and subjected it to polishing with diamond, alumina and silica, following modern techniques. Using an atomic force microscope to examine the polished surfaces on a nanometre scale, the scientists found the diamond-polished surface most closely matched the surface from the ancient axe. Quartz could not have been the abrasive used by the ancient craftsmen. "Our understanding of the first use of diamond is based on textual evidence from 500 BC in India. But even that - though probably right - is speculative. This is physical evidence a couple of thousand years earlier," Dr Lu told the BBC News website. "Any experiment does not give you 100% certainty, but this is the only possibility that makes sense." However, even with the best modern polishing technologies available, the research team could not achieve a surface as flat and smooth as that on the ancient axe. The ancient craftsmen must have used highly sophisticated techniques. .. The finely polished axes reflected an image like a mirror The authors speculate that the use of diamond and corundum abrasives could be linked to an explosion in finely polished jade artefacts during the Chinese neolithic. The use of corundum could have slashed production times while diamond could have added the finishing touches, they suggest. Quartz, previously thought to have been the neolithic lapidary's abrasive of choice, is only slightly harder than jade. Story from BBC NEWS:

Qufu -- Hometown of Confucius Qufu can be reached by a half hour bus ride from Yanzhou, which is a stop in Shandong Province halfway on the Beijing Shanghai Railway. The city has a long history. It is said to be the ruin of the capital of Shan Hao (one if the five legendary rulers before recorded history in China); five kilometers northeast of the city is Shan Hao's tomb, the only pyramid in China built with square stones. Qufu was the hometown of Confucius (551-479 B.C.), the celebrated thinker, philosopher and educator of the Spring and Autumn Period. For twenty-five centuries, he has exerted profound influence on Chinese society with his ideas right up to the present century. As the para-religious cult which came to embrace his thinking grew, shrines and temples were erected to his memory in Qufu. Among more than three hundred historical sites here, the most famous are Temple of Confucius (Kongmiao), Confucius Mansion (Kongfu), and Forest of Confucius (Konglin). Temple of Confucius One year after Confucius' death (478 B.C.), Duke Ai of the State of Lu had and Confucius's former residence rebuilt into a temple to worship and offer sacrifice to Confucius. As the temple was repeatedly renovated and enlarged by emperors from the Western Han Dynasty onwards, it gradually became a huge group of ancient buildings. In the front part of the temple, which consists of nine courtyards, visitors pass through a number of gates, the Pavilion of the Constellation Scholars (Kuiwenge), and Thirteen pavilions of Imperial Steles (Shisanyuebeiting). From Great Achievement Gate (Dachengmen), visitors can continue the tour along one of three routes. In the middle route, they can see Terrace of Apricot Tree (Xingtan), Great Achievement Hall (Dachengdian), Confucius' Bedroom (Qindian), and Hall of Memories of the Sage (Shengjidian). To the east of these halls is the former residence of Confucius, where tourists can visit Hall of Rites and Poetry (Shilitang), Wall of Lu (Lubi), Confucius' Well (Guzhaijing), Worship Ancestors Temple (Chongshengsi), and the Confucius Family Temple (Jiamiao). Along the west route are Hall of Heralding the Sage (Qishengwangdian), used for worshipping and offering sacrifice to Confucius' parents, and Hall of Private Apartments (Qishengwangqindian). The walled temple, with towers at its corners, is composed of many buildings with carved beams and painted eaves, extending for more than one kilometer from south to north. Inside the wall, ancient cypresses and pines provide the buildings with shade. The temple houses more than two thousand stone tablets with inscriptions in various styles of calligraphy. The towering Great Accomplishment Hall, the major structure of the temple, is 54 meters long, 34 meters wide and 32 meters high. Its roof is supported by twenty-eight stone columns standing on pedestals shaped like lotus flowers. The front ten columns standing on pedestals shaped like lotus flowers. The front ten columns are carved with dragons cavorting in a rolling sea with clouds floating above. A statue of Confucius stands inside the hall. Confucius Mansion Right next to the Temple of Confucius, the mansion was the residence of Confucius' descendants. As generations of emperors advocated the worship of Confucius, his descendants were given the hereditary title of "Lord of Learning." Therefore, the mansion is also called "the Mansion of Lords of Learning." Covering a vast area and containing a total of 463 rooms of buildings, this architectural group represents the largest landlord manor in Chinese history. The richly decorated mansion served a triple function: it was a feudal government office, a family temple, and a residence. Forest of Confucius Located to the north of the town of Qufu County and occupying two hundred hectares, the forest serves as the cemetery of Confucius and his descendants. The ancient trees in the cemetery are said to have been brought here by Confucius' disciples from their hometowns after his death. There are more than twenty thousand trees inside the cemetery, which shade the tombs and tombstones. There are many historical sites in the forest commemorating the visits of emperors of various dynasties who came to pay tribute to Confucius and his descendants. There are many historical sites in Qufu as well, including Duke of Zhou Temple (Zhougongmiao), Mother of Mencius Woods (Mengmulin), Duke of the State of Liang Woods (Lianggonglin), and the ruins of the old city of the Ducal State of Lu. All are now open to visitors after undergoing renovation. Qufu has fairly complete tourist facilities, and an increasing number of visitors come here every year. (china.org.cn)

http://www.guilinchina.net/attraction/seven-star-park.htm Seven Star Park (Qi xing Gongyuan), is located on the eastern side of the Li River, 1 kilometer from the city center. Deriving its name from a cave called Seven-Star Cave. Seven-Star Park covers an area of 40 hectares. Being the largest comprehensive and most beautiful park in Guilin , it features fantastic hills, rivers, caves and rocks. Located in the center, Seven-Star Hill consists of Putuo Hill with four peaks and Crescent Hill with three peaks. The southern entrance straddles the ancient Floral Bridge . Dragon Retreat Cave near the southern gate houses great numbers of stone tablets. This delightful park that has been landscaped to encompass hills and natural waterways is a great favorite with the local people and tourists alike. At the end of Jiefang Donglu ( Jiefang Road, East ) and approximately one kilometer from the downtown. Seven Star Park got its name from the seven peaks that are supposed to resemble the star pattern of the Big Dipper constellation nearby - four peaks in the north are called Putuo Hill, three in the south are called Lunar Hill. The famous Seven Star cave is located at the Putuo Hill.

Seven Star Cave (Qi qing yan) A visit to Guilin would not be complete without a visit to this cave and Reed Flute Cave -- the two largest, most fascinating, and best-known caves in China . Seven-Star Cave is more than one and a half kilometers long. It penetrates several main peaks of Putuo Mountain and can accommodate tens of thousands of people. About a million years ago, it was an underground river channel, which, with the movement of the earth's crust, rose above the surface to become a cavern. The cave is divided into three rock strata. The top stratum is eight to twelve meters higher than the middle stratum, with traces still somewhat visible. The lower stratum is an underground river course, ten to fifteen meters lower than the bottom of the middle stratum. It is this middle stratum that has become a tourist attraction -- an underground gallery of stalactites and stalagmites in formations suggestive of forests or animals. The tunnel is 814 meters long, 43 meters at its widest point, and 27 meters at it's highest. In-cave temperature is about 20 oC. Taking the shapes of stone column, curtain, stalagmite and animals, the cave leads visitors into a marvelous world. The cave has been equipped artificial with a lighting system to fully display the enchanting scenes to visitors. The cave has been a sightseeing spot since the Sui and Tang dynasties more than 1,300 years ago. Over the centuries many poems and other inscriptions have been left behind on its walls by visitors.





This pot was made in 1663 A.D during the Qing Dynasty. It is 1.5m in diameter, 0.8m in depth and weighs 1000kg. It can cook 300 jins, (1 jin = 604.79g), of rice to feed 1000 men. Source: Travel Pod .com

This is an artistic reproduction of a relief found in a labyrinth on the island Jotuo in the Toengt'ing lake. An expedition took place in 1957 (two years before an earthquake in that region). The expedition was led by professor Tsj'i Pen-Lai. They found various reliefs showing "humans" in strange clothes which looked like astronaut suits (hose like objects attached to the clothes). They also found a painting which apparently resembled the solar system. The third and fourth circle (planet) were connected with a line. Also there were ten planets (excluding the sun as planet). This connects easily to the theories about Nibiru, planet X, etc..

Haratonohama, Hitachi, Japan - 1803

The book "Ume No Chiri" (Dust of Apricot)

tells us that a "foreign ship and crew" was once

witnessed at Haratonohama (Haratono Seashore)

in Hitachi no Kuni (Ibaragi Prefecture), Japan.

The outer shell was made of iron and glass

and strange letters were seen inside the ship.

Notice also four examples of alien heiroglyphs.

Some more interesting ancient accounts……

[quote] According to a report on China Economic Net, a story in the book entitled "In Search of the Supernatural" by Gan Bao of the East Jin Dynasty (317 AD - 420 AD) tells of contact with Martians. In the Wu Kingdom during the Three Kingdoms Period (222 AD - 280 AD), the ancients wrote of child possessing a strange appearance appearing among a group of playing children. He was 1.3 meters tall, dressed in blue and had shining eyes. The other children had never seen this newcomer before, so they surrounded him to ask questions. "I am not from the earth, but from the Mars," said the child dressed in blue, "I saw that you are playing so happily so I came down to see you." ... When the adults rushed over, the Martian child bid the goodbye and immediately shrank his body and jumped into the air. When people raised their heads to watch him, they could only see a white silk cloth dragging a long belt, flying rapidly towards the sky. Nobody dared to spread the bizarre event at the time.

[b]Another species?[/b]

According to "Researching Lost Records" written by Wang Jia during the East Jin Dynasty , during the time of Emperor Yao four thousand years ago, a huge boat-shaped UFO floated in the air above the West Sea [4]. The UFO drifted slowly and had many lights. People aboard the UFO were seen wearing hats, and had white feathers growing all over their bodies. They had no wings but could fly.[/quote]

Now here is something VERY interesting….

[img]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/1118ac7557e6.jpg[/img]

[quote] The document recounts the stories of Japanese sailors who find themselves in foreign lands after becoming lost at sea, as well as castaway foreigners washed ashore on the beaches of Japan. To the Japanese people, who at the time had been living in a prolonged period of national isolation, these exotic tales must have seemed very fantastic.

Among these stories is the account of a wrecked ship with a very mysterious appearance.

[img]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/95b551eac7be.jpg[/img]

According to the document, this vessel washed ashore at Harashagahama in Hitachi-no-kuni (present-day Ibaraki prefecture). The body of the ship, described as 3.3 meters tall and 5.4 meters wide, had been built from red sandalwood and iron and was fitted with windows of glass or crystal. The mysterious characters of an unknown alphabet were found inscribed inside the vessel.[/quote]

[img]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/0ed5f78efde9.jpg[/img]

[i]Notice the odd ‘hieroglyphic’ type writing?Looks familiar to other accounts of alien ‘symbolic language’ doesn’t it?[/i]

[quote]Aboard the drifting vessel was a finely dressed young woman with a pale face and red eyebrows and hair. She was estimated to be between 18 and 20 years old. Because she spoke an unfamiliar tongue, those that encountered her were unable to determine from whence she came. In her arms she clutched a plain wooden box that appeared to be of great value to her, as she would allow nobody to approach it.

The document shows a portion of the text found inside the ship[i](see last picture)[/i]

Other Edo-period documents describe variations of this mysterious encounter. Toen Shousetsu (1825), a book by Kyokutei Bakin (who is most famous for his 106-volume samurai epic Nansou Satomi Hakkenden) tells the story of the same encounter, referring to the strange vessel as the utsuro-fune (”hollow ship”). Another variation of this tale appears in Ume no Chiri (1844), penned by a relatively unknown author named Nagahashi Matajirou. A thorough analysis of these two variations of the story can be found in a translated article by Kazuo Tanaka titled

[url=http://www.highbeam.com/library/docFree.asp?DOCID=1G1:63693006]Did a close encounter of the third kind happen on a Japanese beach in 1810?[/url][/quote]

[url=http://www.pinktentacle.com/2006/09/edo-period-ufo/]pinktentacle.com[/url] Well the evidence is everywhere isn’t it?I highly doubt all this,with its chilling similarity to modern UFOs and aliens is a “myth” or a “lie”.If all this information was presented in a courtroom we would have a ruling in favor of ancient ET contact.So why don’t some people take this ‘for real’?They say the evidence doesn’t exist,but all you have to do is look!How much longer can we as a race deny these facts?To deny them is in reality to deny ourselves. http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread459147/pg8#pid6218943

[more] Yes you have a good point. So I checked it out. It appears that the Theosophical Glossary, from the same site, regards the Sidereal year as the same amount as the precession. So, it is not so much an error, as a shift of meaning for the term 'sidereal'. It seems they deal with longer periods of time: [ex]Great Age. There were several “great ages” mentioned by the ancients. In India it embraced the whole Maha-manvantara, the “age of Brahmâ”, each “Day” of which represents the life cycle of a chain—i.e. it embraces a period of seven Rounds. (See Esoteric Buddhism, by A. P. Sinnett.) Thus while a “Day” and a “Night” represent, as Manvantara and Pralaya, 8,640,000,000 years, an “age” lasts through a period of 311,040,000,000,000 years; after which the Pralaya, or dissolution of the universe, becomes universal. With the Egyptians and Greeks the “great age” referred only to the tropical or sidereal year, the duration of which is 25,868 solar years. Of the complete age—that of the gods— they say nothing, as it was a matter to he discussed and divulged only in the Mysteries, during the initiating ceremonies. The “great age” of the Chaldees was the same in figures as that of the Hindus.[/ex] http://www.theosophy.org/Blavatsky/Theosophical%20Glossary/Thegloss.htm :up: [/quote] http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread459147/pg9#pid6220878

Not wanting to sound like a broken record or divert the conversation...while these ancient scripts hold alot of peculiar information and deserve alot of research, another building to be finished in 2010 for the world expo is below; basically what looks like a huge UFO. So, only kilometres apart, Shanghai will have not just a huge inverted pyramid, but also a huge UFO-shaped building. In my mind this is kind of like an overt, or almost sub-conscious display, of the importance of pyramids and UFOs. Perhaps somehow linked to China's ancient history? I don't know...

There are rich pickings in the wikipedia entry on [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_mythology]Chinese Mythology[/url] if you know how to read it. Skyfloating, it seems there were a lot of celestial beings, and 'contactees' in China before HuangDi. I'm not sure if you found the story of [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yu_Huang]The Jade Emperor[/url] too apocryphal? The story mentions wars in heaven and a lot of other interesting things that tie in with other ancient accounts. The interesting thing about these Chinese "Gods" is that many of them seem confined to a specific geographic locale, a mountain, a city etc. It seems strange that gods should be restricted to a certain area. Here's some examples of Celestial beings and ancient contactees, bold mine: [b]Qibo[/b] [ex] Qibo (Chinese: 岐伯; pinyin: Qíbó; Wade-Giles: Chi Bo), was a mythological Chinese doctor, employed by Huangdi (the Yellow Emperor) as his minister. It is said that he was [b]enlightened with the knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine by an ethereal being from the heavens.[/b] [/ex]

[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qibo]Wikipedia entry on Qibo[/url] [b]The Cowherd and The Weaver Girl[/b] [ex]

In another story, popular throughout Asia and with many differing versions, the Jade Emperor has a daughter named Chih'nü (simplified Chinese: 织女; traditional Chinese: 織女; pinyin: zhī nǚ literally: weaver girl). She is most often represented as responsible for weaving colorful clouds in the heaven, in some versions she is instead a seamstress who works for the Jade Emperor. Everyday Chih'nü descended to earth with the aid of a magical robe to bathe. One day, a lowly cowherd named Niu Lang (Chinese: 牛郎; pinyin: niú láng) spotted Chih'nü as she bathed in a stream. Niu Lang fell instantly in love with her and stole her magic robe which she had left on the bank of the stream, leaving her unable to escape back to Heaven. When Chih'nü emerged from the water, Niu Lang grabbed her and carried her back to his home. [/ex] [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yu_Huang]Yu Huang, The Cowherd and The Weaver Girl[/url] Modern Sinologists maintain that this story is a metaphor for Altair, Vega, and the creation of the Milky Way. But it seems strange that a culture that was in many ways so advanced should resort to strange metaphors for celestial occurences... the explanation seems pretty forced to me. Perhaps there are alternative explanations. [b]Fu Xi[/b] Half man, half snake, suppossed cretor of the human race, recreated humans after a great flood, apparently lived to 197, believed to have created the I Ching after being contacted by a dragon that arose from the Yellow River. [ex] Fu Xi was born on the lower-middle reaches of the Yellow River in a place called Chengji (possibly modern Lantian, Shaanxi or Tianshui, Gansu).[1] According to legend, the land was swept by a great flood and only Fu Xi and his sister Nüwa survived. They retired to Kunlun Mountain where they prayed for a sign from the Emperor of Heaven. The divine being approved their union and the siblings set about procreating the human race. It was said that in order to speed up the procreation of humans, Fu Xi and Nüwa found an additional way by using clay to create human figures, and with the power divine being entrusted to them, they made the clay figures to come alive.

[more] I must say that the similarities in myths, legends and religious scripts from numerous societies throughout the world and history suggests that there is probably an element of truth in all this and to dismiss it outright seems fool hardy and maybe indicative of entrenched and conditioned thought processes.

Unfortunately there seems to be a lack of hard, physical evidence and is reliant upon interpretation. [/quote] Hi Freeborn,

I agree with your first statement. As to the lack of hard physical evidence; it's all around, plenty on this thread. [b]Agreements between Myths and Monuments[/b]

This correlates with the HuangDi legend, he was said to have originated from there. If someone has a look in Google Earth we can know for sure. When you analyse myths there's a lot of conjecture, true. I'm not 100 per cent sure what I believe, just putting things out there for people to have a look at. As far as massive archaelogical sites go, they're out there, no mistake. It's a case of looking at both in tandem and seeing if there's any matches.

[b]The Fish in the Picture[/b]

EDIT: The fish? I have no idea. To me it neither proves or disproves anything, perhaps the chariot is a USO not a UFO. There's no clouds, sun or moon [i]so we've just assumed that the vehicle is in the air.[/i] There's more than a few Chinese myths that talk about dragons and celestial beings rising out of the water to talk to humans. "Ancient Chinese USOs" is another facet of this strange subject. I'm wary of too much speculation, but this whole thread is speculative, so....







Then there's this picture of a man riding a 'dragon', I won't comment:

[more] True, not proof positve but some massive coincidences. You're right, it's a mammoth task, but a lot of fun. I don't so much feel daunted, but pleased there's a massive load of information to wade through. The trick is not so much making a dry, exhaustive study but a few really interesting links that make people go hmmmm.... Anyway... I was flicking around and I found [url=http://www.megaliths.net/china.htm]this essay[/url], which links the design of the Great Wall to that of certain constellations in the Milky way. Now that could be so much nonsense. It's pretty tenuous, and could be easily ripped apart, but I'm putting it up anyway. I stand behind the other info I've posted but with this one, I just don't know. It's either one of the most profound essays ever written or a complete waste of bandwidth. Do we nominate the writer for a Nobel prize or lock him up? :lol: [ex]

The hermetic principle - as on Earth, so in Heaven - is well-established in Chinese ancient writings. To our own astonishment, as we have discovered, the Great Wall of China was originally built as a landmark representing the Milky Way - the legendary Dragon of Heaven.

...

The constellations of Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra and Virgo (apparently also Cygnus, Andromeda and Lacerta, the early Chinese "Tang Shay") were known as the Azure Dragon (or "East Dragon") in the ancient Chinese solar zodiac - and later were even incorporated into Capricorn by the Chinese astrologers in the Sing Ki. See Richard Hinckley Allen (hereafter RHA), Star Names: Their Lore and Meaning, Dover. Since the Eastern end of the Great Wall is known by the people as the "head" of the dragon, this is the first confirmation of the astronomical connection of the Great Wall to the Milky Way.

[more] What is the date assigned to the "Man riding a dragon" pic you posted above? And nevermind the fish, what is that saucer like thing lying over his head? :) As to the carvings on tortoise shells, here's another anomaly found on tortoise shells -- it predates our current timeline in this thread by a few thousand years, but it is pretty compelling in that you can see the researchers unable to deny what they are finding -- and really struggling with that :lol: . [ex]

Signs carved into 8,600-year-old tortoise shells found in China may be the earliest written words, say archaeologists.

First attempt at writing on a tortoise shell

The symbols were laid down in the late Stone Age, or Neolithic Age. They predate the earliest recorded writings from Mesopotamia - in what is now Iraq - by more than 2,000 years. The archaeologists say they bear similarities to written characters used thousands of years later during the Shang dynasty, which lasted from 1700-1100 BC. But the discovery has already generated controversy, with one leading researcher in the field branding it "an anomaly".

If you are referencing the iron pipes at e.t. relics, the source you are quoting is tainted. The relics are 25 miles sw of delingha city which is among other things a prison farm for between 60 to 80 thousand political prisoners. I t is also where there mobile nuclear ICBM's are located. The pipes that were found irradiated was because of dumping nuclear waste in the salt lake. All these researchers go there but no one takes a camera. I think that is because they are afraid people will photograph the positions where they park their nuclear deterrents.

Probing into the "ET relic site" in China's Qinghai



Mount Baigong is located in Huaitoutala County, 40 kilometers southwest of Delingha City, the capital of the Haixi Mongolian and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in northwest China's Qinghai province. To the southwest of the mountain are two shimmering lakes on a plateau, one called Tuosuo and the other, Keluke. The incredible thing is that the former is a salt water lake, and the latter is composed of fresh water, despite their connection with the Bayin River. Upon arrival at Mount Baigong, a rare heavy rain that had been ravaging the area for a couple of days had just stopped, giving way to the scorching heat of the sun and ultraviolet rays pouring down on one's head. The place looked just like the surface of Mars depicted in an American science fiction film: flame-colored rocks were dazzling under the sun and clusters of stiff-necked desert plants stood in the sweeping wind. At more than 2,800 meters above sea level, the air is thin and crisp. The legendary "iron pipes" are scattered around the foot of the mountain, rusted and weathered. Who made them and brought them to this barren site? What is known is that this place has never seen industrial development in any real sense, and no construction has ever been conducted around Tuosu Lake. Thus, the news of an "Extra-Terrestrial (ET) relic site" immediately roused much attention, especially from scholars. Investigations by experts resulted in the following hypotheses: --Relics of prehistoric human beings. It is believed that prehistoric men held higher industrial and cultural achievements than existing human beings. Relics of their achievements remained after they disappeared with changing glacier conditions. However, no sign of glacier activity was evident around Mount Baigong. --Fossils of plants with tube-shaped stems formed under high pressure. Scientific analysis tells us that fossils of fauna and flora can only remain the same; fossils could not change into forms such as iron pipes positioned in different ways. In addition, there has neither been any report of iron in the surrounding area, nor is there any evidence of fossils. --A unique geological phenomenon. After an investigative tour of the area, Zheng Jiandong, a geology research fellow from the China Earthquake Administration said he favors the possibility that when underground magma rose to the surface ferric materials froze to form the tube-like objects. "There is indeed something mysterious about these pipes," he explained, "for example, the size of the pipes tends to be small and some of them are highly radioactive." --A decision of ET beings. The Qaidam Basin of Qinghai is high in altitude, there are few clouds and air is transparent; while Mount Baigong is very close to the lakes. If an ET being entered our planet in an aircraft, the mountain would be the most eye-catching landmark, and the area would be ideal for landing. Are the pipes used for research into the chemical elements of the Tuosou Lake? Educated guesses and hypotheses have been piling up. However, one thing is certain: stronger evidence and closer scientific analysis are needed before any of the hypotheses can be proven. By People's Daily Online



Comment on the story Tell a friend Print friendly format Save this The first paragraph states that the e.t. relics is located 40 kilometers from Delingha city, the capitol of the prefecture. Not quite 500 hundred miles. The prison farm has between 60-80,000 political prisoners. This is not counting the indigenous populations, government and military and the infrastructure to support such a large number of people.

OK here we go. Sorry for being late. I wanted to post a good reply earlier but real life has a way of creeping in. I wonder what they keep trying to tell us we have stories of Dragons, Amphibians, and Fish Gods All supposedly teaching us in our ancient prehistory. Enjoy. [img]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/1d110ac49346.jpg[/img] [url=http://www.bible-history.com/sketches/ancient/dagon.html]Dagon the Fish-God[/url]

[ex]Painted Illustration of Dagon in Ancient Times

Dagon was the god of the Philistines. This image shows that the idol was represented in the combination of both man and fish. The name "Dagon" is derived from "dag" which means "fish." [/ex] [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuxi]FUXI[/url] The Chinese have maintained that their civilization was founded by [b]amphibious [/b]beings that had a man's head and a fish tail. The entity, named Fuxi, has been depicted as both male or female. The date traditionally ascribed to him is 3,322BC. In Chinese mythology, Fu Xi or Fu Hsi was the first of the mythical Three Sovereigns of ancient China. He is a culture hero reputed to be the inventor of writing, fishing, and trapping.

[img]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/e4617493b35f.jpg[/img] Kind of reminds me of the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogon_people]Dogon[/url] story of their [b]"Amphibian"[/b] god. It gets repeated all over the world.

[ex]The Dogons believe that in ancient times, an aquatic culture came to them from out of the sky. Human looking beings, acting as saviors and spiritual guardians, landed close to their village in a space ship described to have 3 triangular legs. Being that they were [b]amphibious[/b], upon landing, they filled a reservoir of water onto the land. Exiting their ship was done by diving into this reservoir. How strange and frightening this must have been to the Dogon of this time! After the initial arrival, the Dogons realized that much like our amphibious creatures today, the NOMMOS were able to adapt to both environments, thus although their primary home would be water, they were still able to walk , talk and live on land. Another thing that was so amazing about these star people was in the fact they had shapeshifting abilities. Whether it was done by mersmerization or not is unknown to me.

[img]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/dd1f505baf50.jpg[/img] I found these few years ago on a web page that was auctioning these ancient Olmec figure of "[b]Amphibians[/b]".

I don't know what the deal was with those, They look like they could be amphibians or dragons they have tails etc. Now here are a couple of interesting figurines. Both are from Ancient Olmec finds. This next one I cant imagine what they were trying to describe.

On the topic of Tibet, it does tend toward being a part of many of the anicent alien/God 'myths'. I am going to post some pics and links, make of them what you will. In summary there has been a contingecy of Russian scholars who have been researching, and putting forward the concept, that Mt. Kailash (sacred to the Tibetans) is at least partially ... well, if not 'man-made', not naturally occurring. The first group came out in 2000 saying that Kailash was the center pf a 'pyramid complex', with pyramids dotted all around the mountain in this most remote of regions. The Chinese countered a couple of years later, saying it was not true.. and in turn tried to squelch further research there :@@:. Take a look and see what you think:

[b]Sacred Mt. Kailash[/b] [atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/bc00a71a6f15.jpg[/atsimg]

[ex]

The idea of the pyramid in this region is not new. It goes back to the timeless Sanskrit epic of the Ramayana. Since then, numerous travellers, especially in the beginning of the 20th century, have expressed the view that Mt.Kailas is too perfect to be a totally natural phenomenon, or at any rate give the appearance of human intervention. For example: "In shape it (Mount Kailas) resembles a vast cathedral… the sides of the mountain are perpendicular and fall sheer for hundreds of feet, the strata horizontal, the layers of stone varying slightly in colour, and the dividing lines showing up clear and distinct...... which give to the entire mountain the appearance of having been built by giant hands, of huge blocks of reddish stone. (G.C. Rawling, The Great Plateau, London, 1905)

[/ex] This is the layout the Russian researchers in 2000 proposed. [atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/3a6946f82e7b.gif[/atsimg] [atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/9b6a1c13c62d.gif[/atsimg] As I said, the Chinese then responded a few years later saying it is not true, there are no pyramids in that most remote region. (It's also with noting that Kailash is one of the worlds few peaks that has never been officaily 'climbed'... It is considered too sacred and sacrosanct to the Tibetans. ) Another group of Russian geologists made a report last August at the 2008 Intl. Geological Congress where they, in my opinon, academically tip-toed around some interesting data they found and reported there: [ex]

The pyramid-like mount Kailash is situated in one of the most difficult for access mount districts of Tibet. There have been studied main valleys and rock formations around Kailash, many of which having regular geometrical forms. [b]There have been determined the exact geographical coordinates of all edges and the top of Kailash, edge bases orientation for the parts of the world, as well as described the structure and construction of Kailash. As a result of the satellite images analyses a lens-like vertical formation has been detected on the top of Kailash.[/b] There have been examined the rock samples taken from the base of Kailash and water samples of brooks, beginning from the glaciers of this mount. [b]There has been found the division boundary between the mount parts: namely, between the lower stratified structure, having the signs of destruction, and the upper one - monolithic and concrete-like.[/b]

This boundary lies in the same horizontal plane at a number of rock formations around Kailash. It is supposed that in the valley of the so-called inner cora there earlier existed the highland ancient lake, surrounding the Kailash. [b]There has been discovered the link, to be yet analyzed, between the pyramid-like formations in the Kailash area and the pyramids of the ancient city of Teotiuakan, Mexico, situated practically exactly at the 180 degrees of longitude. [/b]There has been revealed a number of geometrical regularities in the Kailash's location, focal planes of the concave stone formations around it and ancient ritual places of pilgrimage.

[/ex] (emph. mine) [url=http://www.cprm.gov.br/33IGC/1315766.html]Source[/url] They go on to say that other researchers (presumably geologists) are finding corresponding data that raises more questions than it answers, but supposes that it will eventually all prove-out to be a geologically natural process... they just don't know how quite yet. :lol:
