4 00:00:10,511 --> 00:00:13,712 We may find information that is vital to mankind. 5 00:00:13,814 --> 00:00:16,815 Messages that are carved in stone 6 00:00:16,917 --> 00:00:19,485 and found all over the world? 7 00:00:19,587 --> 00:00:21,053 There has been an explosion 8 00:00:21,155 --> 00:00:23,188 in new discoveries of geoglyphs 9 00:00:23,290 --> 00:00:24,524 that we didn't know about before. 10 00:00:24,525 --> 00:00:27,326 But once deciphered, 11 00:00:27,428 --> 00:00:30,229 will they reveal a message of hope... 12 00:00:30,331 --> 00:00:33,932 Many of the geoglyphs were created 13 00:00:34,035 --> 00:00:36,769 in order to contact someone up there. 14 00:00:36,871 --> 00:00:38,404 ...or a deadly warning? 15 00:00:38,506 --> 00:00:41,240 Just imagine if we don't get that message. 16 00:00:41,342 --> 00:00:43,742 Humanity could be in the balance. 17 00:01:14,175 --> 00:01:18,077 Saudi Arabia. 2004. 18 00:01:18,179 --> 00:01:23,048 While exploring the ancient lava fields of Harrat Khaybar, 19 00:01:23,150 --> 00:01:26,385 amateur archaeologist Dr. Abdullah Al-Saeed 20 00:01:26,487 --> 00:01:30,389 comes upon a number of what appear to be stone walls, 21 00:01:30,491 --> 00:01:34,393 each approximately three feet high. 22 00:01:34,495 --> 00:01:38,030 From the ground level, Dr. Al-Saeed concludes 23 00:01:38,132 --> 00:01:42,201 that the structures have no discernable pattern or purpose. 24 00:01:44,505 --> 00:01:47,639 That is, not until four years later, 25 00:01:47,741 --> 00:01:52,411 when he obtains satellite photos of the very same area. 26 00:01:52,513 --> 00:01:55,280 What he sees astounds him. 27 00:01:55,382 --> 00:01:59,518 There, detectable from the sky are a vast collection 28 00:01:59,620 --> 00:02:03,188 of more than 400 stone enclosures. 29 00:02:03,290 --> 00:02:06,792 Known to the local Bedouin as the Works of the Old Men, 30 00:02:06,894 --> 00:02:09,928 these mysterious structures are quickly examined 31 00:02:10,030 --> 00:02:13,765 and are revealed to stretch for hundreds of miles. 32 00:02:13,868 --> 00:02:16,635 They were within what's referred to 33 00:02:16,737 --> 00:02:19,471 as-as a lava field of activity. 34 00:02:19,573 --> 00:02:23,208 They're generally described either as kites 35 00:02:23,310 --> 00:02:27,212 or as gates, 36 00:02:27,314 --> 00:02:31,550 which are more rectilinear forms of them. 37 00:02:31,652 --> 00:02:35,821 And there are literally hundreds of these. 38 00:02:35,923 --> 00:02:40,058 In fact, they stretch all the way from Saudi Arabia 39 00:02:40,161 --> 00:02:44,630 right away across to Jordan and into Syria. 40 00:02:44,732 --> 00:02:47,900 They're kind of like angular pyramids 41 00:02:48,002 --> 00:02:50,636 almost going off into the distance like runways, 42 00:02:50,738 --> 00:02:53,071 widening at one end to being short at the other end. 43 00:02:53,174 --> 00:02:56,008 Although no record exists 44 00:02:56,110 --> 00:02:58,710 indicating when these structures were built, 45 00:02:58,812 --> 00:03:00,913 who built them or why, 46 00:03:01,015 --> 00:03:05,250 the predominant theory among mainstream archaeologists 47 00:03:05,352 --> 00:03:08,053 is that they were constructed for hunting purposes 48 00:03:08,155 --> 00:03:10,389 many thousands of years ago. 49 00:03:10,491 --> 00:03:14,660 What we think they are are prehistoric hunting sites 50 00:03:14,762 --> 00:03:16,361 where gazelle and other animals 51 00:03:16,463 --> 00:03:19,231 would be driven into the enclosure, 52 00:03:19,333 --> 00:03:22,334 and then on the outsides of the enclosure, pits were dug 53 00:03:22,436 --> 00:03:24,281 and the animals would fall into the pits. 54 00:03:24,305 --> 00:03:27,506 The kites, when you visit them on the ground, 55 00:03:27,608 --> 00:03:28,874 are really hard to find. 56 00:03:28,976 --> 00:03:31,910 In the air you get the whole pattern. 57 00:03:32,012 --> 00:03:34,112 There are literally thousands of them. 58 00:03:34,215 --> 00:03:37,916 And they must have been in use for thousands of years. 59 00:03:38,018 --> 00:03:39,629 And why did they fall into disuse? 60 00:03:39,653 --> 00:03:41,364 That's an answer we haven't yet got. 61 00:03:41,388 --> 00:03:44,923 Although the theory that the stone structures 62 00:03:45,025 --> 00:03:47,392 were used for hunting purposes is compelling, 63 00:03:47,494 --> 00:03:51,530 ancient astronaut theorists argue that if these structures 64 00:03:51,632 --> 00:03:53,899 were really used for hunting gazelle, 65 00:03:54,001 --> 00:03:56,902 the walls would have needed to be more than three feet high 66 00:03:57,004 --> 00:04:01,139 since a gazelle can leap more than ten feet into the air. 67 00:04:01,242 --> 00:04:05,644 Instead, they suggest that because the structures 68 00:04:05,746 --> 00:04:07,579 are only viewable from the air, 69 00:04:07,681 --> 00:04:09,915 they should be considered geoglyphs. 70 00:04:10,017 --> 00:04:12,584 A geoglyph is just basically 71 00:04:12,686 --> 00:04:16,088 a drawing on the landscape, usually quite large scale. 72 00:04:16,190 --> 00:04:17,923 Most geoglyphs are in deserts, 73 00:04:18,025 --> 00:04:19,502 and in deserts you get a phenomenon 74 00:04:19,526 --> 00:04:21,226 which we call desert varnish. 75 00:04:21,328 --> 00:04:24,596 It's just a natural dark patina that builds up on the surface. 76 00:04:24,698 --> 00:04:27,566 So if you move the dark parts to one side, 77 00:04:27,668 --> 00:04:29,968 expose the lighter soil or sand underneath, 78 00:04:30,070 --> 00:04:32,938 that is one way of making a drawing. 79 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,942 The second basic technique is to use the dark stones 80 00:04:37,044 --> 00:04:39,444 and pile them together to make shapes. 81 00:04:39,546 --> 00:04:43,782 Geometric shapes, animal shapes or whatever. 82 00:04:43,884 --> 00:04:47,185 And the third basic technique is simply a combination of the two. 83 00:04:47,288 --> 00:04:49,588 You move things to one side to expose lightness, 84 00:04:49,690 --> 00:04:51,601 you use the dark stones to make patterns. 85 00:04:51,625 --> 00:04:54,426 So, you get very nice combination of the two. 86 00:04:54,528 --> 00:04:56,673 In recent years, thanks to modern technology, 87 00:04:56,697 --> 00:04:58,737 and particularly satellite photographs, 88 00:04:58,766 --> 00:05:01,044 uh, there has been an explosion in new discoveries 89 00:05:01,068 --> 00:05:03,435 of-of geoglyphs that we didn't know about before. 90 00:05:05,706 --> 00:05:08,373 The interesting fact about all of these 91 00:05:08,475 --> 00:05:11,310 is that they point towards the sky. 92 00:05:11,412 --> 00:05:14,012 And what might this tell us? 93 00:05:14,114 --> 00:05:17,616 Well, the first thing is that many of the geoglyphs 94 00:05:17,718 --> 00:05:21,486 that we know today were only discovered 95 00:05:21,588 --> 00:05:26,692 once aerial survey started in around the 1920s. 96 00:05:26,794 --> 00:05:28,860 All of them were only really revealed 97 00:05:28,962 --> 00:05:31,630 once aircraft got up into the air. 98 00:05:31,732 --> 00:05:34,566 And this tells us something very, very important. 99 00:05:34,668 --> 00:05:39,638 Most geoglyphs really only make sense from above. 100 00:05:39,740 --> 00:05:42,808 It therefore seems that they would be messages 101 00:05:42,910 --> 00:05:45,344 to something nonhuman, something up there. 102 00:05:45,446 --> 00:05:49,014 When the now legendary Nazca Lines of Peru 103 00:05:49,116 --> 00:05:51,817 were first discovered in 1927, 104 00:05:51,919 --> 00:05:54,886 they were considered a unique phenomenon. 105 00:05:54,988 --> 00:05:58,657 But now, with the benefit of satellite imagery, 106 00:05:58,759 --> 00:06:00,726 thousands of ancient geoglyphs 107 00:06:00,828 --> 00:06:03,562 are being found all over the world: 108 00:06:03,664 --> 00:06:07,833 in Kazakhstan, in the Southwestern United States, 109 00:06:07,935 --> 00:06:13,672 in the Atacama Desert of Chile and in Bolivia. 110 00:06:13,774 --> 00:06:15,907 Almost everywhere around the world, 111 00:06:16,009 --> 00:06:18,677 we find what are known as geoglyphs. 112 00:06:18,779 --> 00:06:21,947 Whether they be the Nazca Lines in Peru, 113 00:06:22,049 --> 00:06:26,718 British geoglyphs to those in the Middle East, 114 00:06:26,820 --> 00:06:30,188 they're something that are virtually universal 115 00:06:30,290 --> 00:06:32,691 around the world and they've been appearing 116 00:06:32,793 --> 00:06:34,526 for many hundreds of years. 117 00:06:34,628 --> 00:06:36,862 But why would ancient people 118 00:06:36,964 --> 00:06:40,198 in so many different locations around the world 119 00:06:40,300 --> 00:06:44,736 all be making signs that can only be seen from above?

373 00:20:04,003 --> 00:20:07,672 Ancient astronaut theorists suggest that the answers 374 00:20:07,774 --> 00:20:09,574 may be found by examining 375 00:20:09,676 --> 00:20:12,243 the most mysterious geoglyphs of all, 376 00:20:12,345 --> 00:20:17,281 incredible markings that are invisible to the naked eye. 377 00:20:21,454 --> 00:20:23,321 Palpa, Peru. 378 00:20:23,423 --> 00:20:26,257 December 2017. 379 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:30,595 Researchers use state-of-the-art drones to photograph 380 00:20:30,697 --> 00:20:34,732 the famous Nazca Lines with high-resolution cameras. 381 00:20:34,834 --> 00:20:38,002 This is new technology being employed 382 00:20:38,104 --> 00:20:39,704 to search the landscape, 383 00:20:39,806 --> 00:20:42,773 and to try and find what the human eye 384 00:20:42,875 --> 00:20:46,711 has not been able to notice and not even from airplanes. 385 00:20:46,813 --> 00:20:50,081 What the researchers find amazes them, 386 00:20:50,183 --> 00:20:54,252 as the HD camera reveals dozens of additional geoglyphs 387 00:20:54,354 --> 00:20:56,621 that had never been seen before. 388 00:20:56,723 --> 00:21:00,858 They include a huge serpent, 389 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:04,762 and also a giant fish, 390 00:21:04,864 --> 00:21:06,998 both of which are cosmic symbols. 391 00:21:09,135 --> 00:21:12,036 The thing is, with some of the figures found in Palpa, 392 00:21:12,138 --> 00:21:15,139 they think they could be older than some of the Nazca figures, 393 00:21:15,241 --> 00:21:17,019 because they're on hillsides, and it's known 394 00:21:17,043 --> 00:21:20,478 that the Paracas culture, who were around before the Nazca, 395 00:21:20,580 --> 00:21:23,881 going back to probably 800 BC, or even earlier. 396 00:21:23,983 --> 00:21:26,217 It does suggest that there was more cultures 397 00:21:26,319 --> 00:21:28,030 than just the Nazca people creating 398 00:21:28,054 --> 00:21:33,224 these effigies and lines in that part of the whole Nazca region. 399 00:21:33,326 --> 00:21:35,293 More geoglyphs, 400 00:21:35,395 --> 00:21:39,463 created by cultures stretching back nearly 3,000 years? 401 00:21:39,565 --> 00:21:41,499 But who were they? 402 00:21:41,601 --> 00:21:44,068 What were they trying to communicate? 403 00:21:44,170 --> 00:21:46,637 One has to wonder, 404 00:21:46,739 --> 00:21:50,741 why did our ancestors create these things 405 00:21:50,843 --> 00:21:54,078 if they can only be appreciated from the air? 406 00:21:56,349 --> 00:21:59,850 Because here is the thing: sometimes it has been proposed 407 00:21:59,952 --> 00:22:03,654 that the Nazca Lines were crests 408 00:22:03,756 --> 00:22:08,259 of different tribes, of different societies. 409 00:22:08,361 --> 00:22:10,695 But if I were a society leader, 410 00:22:10,797 --> 00:22:13,597 and I had my crest created on the ground, 411 00:22:13,700 --> 00:22:17,768 but I could not see it, I would not be very happy with that. 412 00:22:17,870 --> 00:22:21,639 That many of them can only be seen from the air, 413 00:22:21,741 --> 00:22:26,544 that suggests to me that many of the geoglyphs were in fact 414 00:22:26,646 --> 00:22:31,549 created in order to contact someone up there. 415 00:22:31,651 --> 00:22:35,119 The ancients were trying to represent 416 00:22:35,221 --> 00:22:39,523 that which they believed was coming from the cosmos, 417 00:22:39,625 --> 00:22:42,326 and that they themselves were trying to communicate 418 00:22:42,428 --> 00:22:46,797 or make the link with these cosmic beings. 419 00:22:48,901 --> 00:22:51,235 For ancient astronaut theorists, 420 00:22:51,337 --> 00:22:53,237 the link between the Nazca Lines 421 00:22:53,339 --> 00:22:57,074 and extraterrestrial communication is an obvious one. 422 00:22:57,176 --> 00:23:00,144 They believe ancient man 423 00:23:00,246 --> 00:23:02,913 would have no reason to make such detailed 424 00:23:03,015 --> 00:23:05,916 and elaborate representations of life on Earth 425 00:23:06,018 --> 00:23:10,488 unless they were trying to communicate with someone. 426 00:23:10,590 --> 00:23:14,058 They also cite recent images recorded on Mars 427 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,261 as evidence which supports their claims. 428 00:23:17,363 --> 00:23:19,597 Certainly, the photographs 429 00:23:19,699 --> 00:23:22,733 that have been taken by the Mars orbiters 430 00:23:22,835 --> 00:23:26,937 and the landers and the rovers would suggest 431 00:23:27,039 --> 00:23:31,242 there are actually geoglyphs on Mars. 432 00:23:31,344 --> 00:23:34,078 These geoglyphic formations are structural, 433 00:23:34,180 --> 00:23:35,958 like we see with the American Indians, 434 00:23:35,982 --> 00:23:38,883 the Mound Builders, those type of formations. 435 00:23:38,985 --> 00:23:43,053 We're also finding pictographic images like the face on Mars, 436 00:23:43,156 --> 00:23:45,556 which have facial features. 437 00:23:45,658 --> 00:23:47,958 We have wonderful pictures 438 00:23:48,060 --> 00:23:50,428 of the surface of Mars, and definitely 439 00:23:50,530 --> 00:23:53,898 on the surface of Mars, we have some stone circles. 440 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,435 Nature does not create stone circle. 441 00:23:57,537 --> 00:24:00,037 Nature could make one stone circle, 442 00:24:00,139 --> 00:24:03,107 but not three or four put together. 443 00:24:04,977 --> 00:24:07,445 Of particular interest to researchers 444 00:24:07,547 --> 00:24:10,448 is a recently discovered geological anomaly 445 00:24:10,550 --> 00:24:14,418 that strongly resembles a species of bird. 446 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:18,055 In 2002, a member of the Cydonia Institute discovered 447 00:24:18,157 --> 00:24:21,592 a parrot formation in the Argyre basin area of Mars. 448 00:24:21,694 --> 00:24:24,995 After two geologists and three veterinarians... 449 00:24:25,097 --> 00:24:28,232 One being an avian specialist... Examined the formation, 450 00:24:28,334 --> 00:24:31,669 they confirmed that the parrot formation had over 17 points 451 00:24:31,771 --> 00:24:34,939 of anatomical correctness, all adhering to the proper shape, 452 00:24:35,041 --> 00:24:38,309 size and orientation to a real parrot. 453 00:24:38,411 --> 00:24:41,312 The same motif can be seen on a copper plate 454 00:24:41,414 --> 00:24:44,748 produced by the Hopewell Indians that features the same type 455 00:24:44,851 --> 00:24:47,685 of parrot formation with an upraised wing. 456 00:24:49,755 --> 00:24:52,289 Could the mysterious parrot-shaped formation 457 00:24:52,391 --> 00:24:55,693 on the surface of Mars really offer a link 458 00:24:55,795 --> 00:24:58,629 to the thousands of geoglyphs found here on Earth? 459 00:24:58,731 --> 00:25:03,701 And, if so, does it offer evidence that extraterrestrials 460 00:25:03,803 --> 00:25:06,704 have been using them as a form of communication with humans 461 00:25:06,806 --> 00:25:10,174 for thousands of years? 462 00:25:10,276 --> 00:25:13,978 Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, and believe 463 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,947 that the various geoglyphic depictions of animals, 464 00:25:17,049 --> 00:25:21,318 humans and birds may not have been intended as mere artwork, 465 00:25:21,420 --> 00:25:23,487 but as a form of language, 466 00:25:23,589 --> 00:25:28,158 whose message for mankind has yet to be decoded. 467 00:25:35,234 --> 00:25:37,167 Elkab, Egypt. 468 00:25:37,270 --> 00:25:39,837 June 2017. 469 00:25:39,939 --> 00:25:43,474 A team of researchers from Yale University 470 00:25:43,576 --> 00:25:46,610 and the Royal Museums of Art and History in Brussels 471 00:25:46,712 --> 00:25:48,979 make an historic find. 472 00:25:49,081 --> 00:25:53,551 While exploring this ancient city, they discover a number 473 00:25:53,653 --> 00:25:57,321 of rock art carvings, which after closer examination, 474 00:25:57,423 --> 00:26:00,858 date back an estimated 5,200 years, 475 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,862 making them the oldest monumental Egyptian hieroglyphs 476 00:26:04,964 --> 00:26:06,530 ever discovered. 477 00:26:06,632 --> 00:26:10,634 Using combinations of various shapes and symbols, 478 00:26:10,736 --> 00:26:13,971 including representations of humans and animals, 479 00:26:14,073 --> 00:26:15,973 hieroglyphics is regarded 480 00:26:16,075 --> 00:26:18,642 as a highly sophisticated writing system, 481 00:26:18,744 --> 00:26:21,245 where every symbol and combination of symbols 482 00:26:21,347 --> 00:26:24,682 has a specific meaning. 483 00:26:24,784 --> 00:26:28,719 When we look at the hieroglyphs of ancient Egypt, 484 00:26:28,821 --> 00:26:30,666 they seem to have come from nowhere. 485 00:26:30,690 --> 00:26:33,591 No one knows where they came from, 486 00:26:33,693 --> 00:26:36,660 no one knows who they really were designed for, 487 00:26:36,762 --> 00:26:39,162 or for their purpose, they just appeared out of nowhere. 488 00:26:39,198 --> 00:26:40,831 So where did these come from? 489 00:26:40,933 --> 00:26:43,567 Were they sort of just divinely inspired? 490 00:26:43,669 --> 00:26:45,202 Was it some other reason, 491 00:26:45,304 --> 00:26:47,905 was it some gods that emerged and arrived 492 00:26:48,007 --> 00:26:50,374 and presented them with this information? 493 00:26:50,476 --> 00:26:53,377 The term "hieroglyphics" 494 00:26:53,479 --> 00:26:57,715 literally means "holy writing," and ancient Egyptian texts say 495 00:26:57,817 --> 00:27:02,152 it was a gift given to them from the god Thoth. 496 00:27:02,254 --> 00:27:07,858 There are legends from all over the world that sky gods 497 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:12,229 have come down to Earth and given information 498 00:27:12,331 --> 00:27:16,934 of science and learning, and also communication 499 00:27:17,036 --> 00:27:18,902 and of language to people. 500 00:27:19,005 --> 00:27:24,908 And early language and alphabets are these symbols. 501 00:27:27,413 --> 00:27:29,880 We're here in Luxor Temple, 502 00:27:29,982 --> 00:27:35,085 and the hieroglyphs here... 503 00:27:35,187 --> 00:27:36,920 are so interesting. 504 00:27:37,023 --> 00:27:39,456 Most people would think that ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs 505 00:27:39,558 --> 00:27:44,495 is more like emojis, and symbols where the sun and a cow 506 00:27:44,597 --> 00:27:47,131 would meet the sky, and you have this picture of the sky... 507 00:27:47,233 --> 00:27:49,299 It's not pictures next to each other. 508 00:27:49,402 --> 00:27:51,969 It's a proper language. 509 00:27:52,071 --> 00:27:54,605 It's a language that has such precision 510 00:27:54,707 --> 00:27:57,074 that people from all over the world 511 00:27:57,176 --> 00:28:01,679 can translate it with the same exact meaning. 512 00:28:01,781 --> 00:28:06,116 All this language was from the god of knowledge. 513 00:28:06,218 --> 00:28:07,796 That's what ancient Egyptians believed, 514 00:28:07,820 --> 00:28:12,589 that god Thoth gave them the language, with all it has. 515 00:28:12,692 --> 00:28:14,458 And the kings then used it 516 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:16,627 to also communicate with their gods. 517 00:28:16,729 --> 00:28:19,763 Ancient Egyptian kings knew for a fact that their gods 518 00:28:19,865 --> 00:28:22,533 understood hieroglyphs. 519 00:28:22,635 --> 00:28:26,637 As described in the Pyramid Texts, 520 00:28:26,739 --> 00:28:29,506 ancient Egyptian religious texts that date back 521 00:28:29,608 --> 00:28:31,775 more than 4,000 years, 522 00:28:31,877 --> 00:28:35,512 a meteoric iron object called the Benben stone 523 00:28:35,614 --> 00:28:38,816 was reported as having descended from the heavens 524 00:28:38,918 --> 00:28:40,684 like a firebird. 525 00:28:42,421 --> 00:28:47,624 Even Egyptologists agree that this type of a shape 526 00:28:47,727 --> 00:28:50,060 descended from the sky... 527 00:28:52,131 --> 00:28:54,698 ...and made a controlled landing. 528 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,902 The Benben stone opened, and people walked out, 529 00:28:59,004 --> 00:29:01,672 the first creator gods. 530 00:29:01,774 --> 00:29:06,176 Now, when I hear a story like this, I wonder 531 00:29:06,278 --> 00:29:09,813 if this thing may have been some type of a craft, 532 00:29:09,915 --> 00:29:11,782 because it is very reminiscent 533 00:29:11,884 --> 00:29:16,320 of the top module of an Apollo rocket. 534 00:29:17,957 --> 00:29:20,657 The Benben came with hieroglyphic inscriptions on it, 535 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:24,027 and it was the first form of hieroglyphic language, 536 00:29:24,130 --> 00:29:25,996 the gift from the gods. 537 00:29:26,098 --> 00:29:29,433 This was the language of the gods. 538 00:29:29,535 --> 00:29:32,870 Did an otherworldly spacecraft 539 00:29:32,972 --> 00:29:35,739 bring the language of hieroglyphics to the people 540 00:29:35,841 --> 00:29:40,444 of ancient Egypt thousands of years ago? 541 00:29:40,546 --> 00:29:43,781 And, if so, could there be a connection between hieroglyphs 542 00:29:43,883 --> 00:29:47,618 and the various individual figures of animals, 543 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,888 shapes and symbols found in the world's 544 00:29:50,990 --> 00:29:53,624 petroglyphs and geoglyphs? 545 00:29:53,726 --> 00:29:56,693 It would seem that these petroglyphs and geoglyphs 546 00:29:56,796 --> 00:30:00,097 are ultimately part of this universal language 547 00:30:00,199 --> 00:30:01,632 that's the forerunner 548 00:30:01,734 --> 00:30:04,768 of hieroglyphic and pictographic languages, too, 549 00:30:04,870 --> 00:30:06,570 like the Chinese for example. 550 00:30:06,672 --> 00:30:08,906 When we're really able to understand 551 00:30:09,008 --> 00:30:10,908 these geoglyphs or petroglyphs, 552 00:30:11,010 --> 00:30:13,877 we may find that there is a message for us 553 00:30:13,979 --> 00:30:16,547 that we have been missing all this time. 554 00:30:16,649 --> 00:30:19,550 One day, hopefully, we will find that knowledge 555 00:30:19,652 --> 00:30:22,886 and know that message. 556 00:30:22,988 --> 00:30:25,789 If hieroglyphs actually represent 557 00:30:25,891 --> 00:30:28,725 a type of ancient alien language, 558 00:30:28,828 --> 00:30:31,728 could their earliest examples exist carved into rocks 559 00:30:31,831 --> 00:30:34,431 and etched in desert sands? 560 00:30:34,533 --> 00:30:37,768 Could they be trying to tell us that Earth's history 561 00:30:37,870 --> 00:30:41,338 is very different than the one we've been taught? 562 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:45,309 Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, 563 00:30:45,411 --> 00:30:47,978 and suggest that instead of viewing them as symbols 564 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,480 of mankind's ancient past, 565 00:30:50,583 --> 00:30:55,419 we should start to look at them as part of mankind's future. 566 00:31:02,528 --> 00:31:05,896 Kanda, the Republic of Macedonia. 567 00:31:05,998 --> 00:31:10,901 There, isolated on a hill in the middle of a vast steppe, 568 00:31:11,003 --> 00:31:14,137 sits a giant geoglyph depicting a symbol 569 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,441 known as the cosmic egg. 570 00:31:17,543 --> 00:31:20,410 According to ancient mythology, 571 00:31:20,512 --> 00:31:22,779 it is the great egg of the universe 572 00:31:22,882 --> 00:31:28,285 from which a powerful deity is often hatched or born. 573 00:31:28,387 --> 00:31:32,456 The concept of the cosmic egg is universal. 574 00:31:32,558 --> 00:31:35,993 But what's so interesting is that a multinational team 575 00:31:36,095 --> 00:31:39,029 who have been investigating this site 576 00:31:39,131 --> 00:31:43,767 have come to the conclusion that it's orientated 577 00:31:43,869 --> 00:31:47,304 towards the constellation of Cassiopeia. 578 00:31:47,406 --> 00:31:51,875 Cassiopeia represents the queen of Heaven. 579 00:31:51,977 --> 00:31:53,710 In addition to the alignment 580 00:31:53,812 --> 00:31:56,980 of the egg with the Cassiopeia constellation, 581 00:31:57,082 --> 00:31:58,994 many scholars believe that the symbol 582 00:31:59,018 --> 00:32:03,353 contained in the egg represents that of the cosmic god Se. 583 00:32:05,391 --> 00:32:08,725 He represents the all-seeing god. 584 00:32:08,827 --> 00:32:11,862 Macedonian myth says that the god Se 585 00:32:11,964 --> 00:32:14,564 was the child of the great cosmic mother 586 00:32:14,667 --> 00:32:16,300 and the supreme god father. 587 00:32:16,402 --> 00:32:18,969 While there are various theories 588 00:32:19,071 --> 00:32:22,539 as to who made the cosmic egg geoglyph and why, 589 00:32:22,641 --> 00:32:25,976 ancient astronaut theorists agree on one point, 590 00:32:26,078 --> 00:32:28,211 that this geoglyph, 591 00:32:28,314 --> 00:32:32,215 like the thousands of others found all across the world, 592 00:32:32,318 --> 00:32:34,985 was intended to be more than simply a work of art 593 00:32:35,087 --> 00:32:37,487 or indicate a place of worship. 594 00:32:37,589 --> 00:32:41,658 It was intended to communicate something of great, 595 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:45,062 possibly intergalactic, importance. 596 00:32:45,164 --> 00:32:47,030 It would seem that 597 00:32:47,132 --> 00:32:49,766 extraterrestrials arrived on Earth, 598 00:32:49,868 --> 00:32:53,337 and then taught humans the meanings of these symbols. 599 00:32:53,439 --> 00:32:57,007 And then humans then used these symbols 600 00:32:57,109 --> 00:32:59,187 to try and contact the extraterrestrials themselves, 601 00:32:59,211 --> 00:33:03,580 either as giant geoglyphs on the ground 602 00:33:03,682 --> 00:33:06,116 to even just petroglyphs on the rocks. 603 00:33:11,957 --> 00:33:14,358 Ancient astronaut theorists suggest 604 00:33:14,460 --> 00:33:17,294 that the notion that petroglyphs and geoglyphs 605 00:33:17,396 --> 00:33:19,563 could represent a form of communication 606 00:33:19,665 --> 00:33:21,543 taught to humans by alien visitors 607 00:33:21,567 --> 00:33:25,402 is supported by our own relatively modern science 608 00:33:25,504 --> 00:33:28,105 of semiotics. 609 00:33:28,207 --> 00:33:31,575 It is the study of signs and symbols 610 00:33:31,677 --> 00:33:34,911 mankind will need to use when trying to communicate, 611 00:33:35,014 --> 00:33:37,314 not only with future generations, 612 00:33:37,416 --> 00:33:39,783 but with extraterrestrials. 613 00:33:39,885 --> 00:33:41,318 Pictographs are more than 614 00:33:41,420 --> 00:33:42,819 pretty simplistic pictures. 615 00:33:42,921 --> 00:33:45,922 They are, in fact, another way of communicating entirely, 616 00:33:46,025 --> 00:33:49,960 not only on Earth, but in a spacecraft sent to deep space 617 00:33:50,062 --> 00:33:52,896 to communicate perhaps with beings 618 00:33:52,998 --> 00:33:55,399 we have no idea about how they speak, write, 619 00:33:55,501 --> 00:33:58,035 or make signification. 620 00:34:00,739 --> 00:34:02,939 In 1991, 621 00:34:03,042 --> 00:34:05,108 the United States Department of Energy 622 00:34:05,210 --> 00:34:07,244 assigned two teams of experts 623 00:34:07,346 --> 00:34:10,080 to the task of devising a marking system 624 00:34:10,182 --> 00:34:13,583 for the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, or WIPP, 625 00:34:13,685 --> 00:34:16,186 a nuclear waste facility 626 00:34:16,288 --> 00:34:18,989 located in the salt beds of the Delaware Basin, 627 00:34:19,091 --> 00:34:22,859 26 miles east of Carlsbad, New Mexico. 628 00:34:24,897 --> 00:34:28,098 The project attempted to find ways of communicating 629 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,033 the hazard of the plant 630 00:34:30,135 --> 00:34:32,369 to humans living in the distant future, 631 00:34:32,471 --> 00:34:36,306 humans who may have developed entirely new languages 632 00:34:36,408 --> 00:34:39,609 or other forms of communication. 633 00:34:42,214 --> 00:34:45,115 One prominent member of the project 634 00:34:45,217 --> 00:34:48,685 was space artist and science journalist Jon Lomberg. 635 00:34:50,689 --> 00:34:56,460 Lomberg had previously worked on NASA's 1977 Voyager mission, 636 00:34:56,562 --> 00:34:58,606 helping to determine what sounds and images 637 00:34:58,630 --> 00:35:01,465 should be included on a pair of golden discs 638 00:35:01,567 --> 00:35:03,633 being sent into deep space. 639 00:35:05,671 --> 00:35:08,004 They put together a panel of people 640 00:35:08,107 --> 00:35:10,107 from a wide variety of backgrounds, 641 00:35:10,175 --> 00:35:13,143 including me as an artist 642 00:35:13,245 --> 00:35:15,123 and as somebody who had experience 643 00:35:15,147 --> 00:35:17,747 trying to communicate with extraterrestrials. 644 00:35:17,850 --> 00:35:20,917 The idea being was, if we can come up with a way 645 00:35:21,019 --> 00:35:23,987 of communicating with extraterrestrials, 646 00:35:24,089 --> 00:35:27,023 then communicating with humans 10,000 years 647 00:35:27,126 --> 00:35:31,161 or a half a million years away should be a piece of cake. 648 00:35:33,098 --> 00:35:35,732 Through their research, the teams determined 649 00:35:35,834 --> 00:35:39,169 that simple images are the most universally recognized. 650 00:35:39,271 --> 00:35:45,108 But some can only be understood when paired with other images. 651 00:35:45,210 --> 00:35:47,777 We knew that there were certain elements of human art 652 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,614 that had appeared so widely 653 00:35:50,716 --> 00:35:52,594 that you could assume everybody would understand them. 654 00:35:52,618 --> 00:35:55,252 And they were: the comic strip. 655 00:35:55,354 --> 00:35:58,855 The idea of a series of images where first this happens, 656 00:35:58,957 --> 00:36:01,191 and then this happens, and then this happens, 657 00:36:01,293 --> 00:36:02,792 you find that all over, 658 00:36:02,895 --> 00:36:06,897 from ancient Egypt to the plains tribes 659 00:36:06,999 --> 00:36:09,032 to the Bayeux Tapestry. 660 00:36:09,134 --> 00:36:11,012 The idea of telling a story with pictures 661 00:36:11,036 --> 00:36:13,270 seems to be something that everybody knows. 662 00:36:13,372 --> 00:36:17,974 So we used the linear story and the stick figure 663 00:36:18,076 --> 00:36:21,044 to try to explain the meaning of symbols 664 00:36:21,146 --> 00:36:25,749 like the poison symbol or the nuclear radiation trefoil 665 00:36:25,851 --> 00:36:27,984 or the "do not" sign. 666 00:36:28,086 --> 00:36:30,253 None of these are universal, 667 00:36:30,355 --> 00:36:33,223 but they're easily explained with a little comic strip. 668 00:36:34,993 --> 00:36:38,395 The whole of written human history is only 5,000 years old. 669 00:36:38,497 --> 00:36:41,398 It's only by the most incredible efforts 670 00:36:41,500 --> 00:36:44,234 that we're able to read the earliest human languages. 671 00:36:44,336 --> 00:36:46,816 So trying to guess how people are going to understand things 672 00:36:46,905 --> 00:36:50,840 10,000 years from now requires incredibly imaginative thinking. 673 00:36:50,943 --> 00:36:54,477 Symbols are universal, and thus, 674 00:36:54,580 --> 00:36:56,613 when we're looking at hieroglyphs 675 00:36:56,715 --> 00:36:59,849 or petroglyphs on rock 676 00:36:59,952 --> 00:37:02,619 or geoglyphs, 677 00:37:02,721 --> 00:37:05,655 we have to also recognize 678 00:37:05,757 --> 00:37:07,757 that there are universal symbols. 679 00:37:07,859 --> 00:37:11,494 We may look at them today and not be aware 680 00:37:11,597 --> 00:37:13,964 of exactly what they mean. 681 00:37:14,066 --> 00:37:16,900 Just possibly some of them 682 00:37:17,002 --> 00:37:21,605 could have been influenced by external sources, 683 00:37:21,707 --> 00:37:25,008 non-terrestrial intelligences, 684 00:37:25,110 --> 00:37:28,445 perhaps even extraterrestrials. 685 00:37:28,547 --> 00:37:31,982 These messages potentially contain 686 00:37:32,084 --> 00:37:34,044 tremendous knowledge for humanity. 687 00:37:34,119 --> 00:37:36,079 It could be something very simple 688 00:37:36,121 --> 00:37:38,855 like "point yourselves at this particular star system" 689 00:37:38,957 --> 00:37:42,192 or "meet us at this particular time and place." 690 00:37:42,294 --> 00:37:44,828 And just imagine if we don't get that message 691 00:37:44,930 --> 00:37:46,563 and don't make that meeting, 692 00:37:46,665 --> 00:37:49,699 or don't look to that particular star system. 693 00:37:49,801 --> 00:37:52,269 Humanity could be in the balance. 694 00:37:54,306 --> 00:37:56,473 Could it be that the petroglyphs and geoglyphs 695 00:37:56,575 --> 00:37:58,308 found all over the world 696 00:37:58,410 --> 00:38:00,977 are not only examples of how early humans 697 00:38:01,079 --> 00:38:02,912 communicated with each other, 698 00:38:03,015 --> 00:38:07,050 but their attempt to replicate a more sophisticated form 699 00:38:07,152 --> 00:38:09,152 of extraterrestrial language? 700 00:38:11,189 --> 00:38:13,556 Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, 701 00:38:13,659 --> 00:38:16,426 and believe the evidence can be found 702 00:38:16,528 --> 00:38:19,596 by investigating UFO encounters in which witnesses 703 00:38:19,698 --> 00:38:22,198 reported seeing hieroglyphic writing 704 00:38:22,301 --> 00:38:24,301 on alien spacecraft. 705 00:38:28,540 --> 00:38:30,140 Rendlesham Forest. 706 00:38:30,242 --> 00:38:32,375 Suffolk County, England. 707 00:38:32,477 --> 00:38:35,945 December 26, 1980. 708 00:38:36,048 --> 00:38:40,216 Near an airbase leased to the United States Air Force 709 00:38:40,319 --> 00:38:41,885 by the R.A.F., 710 00:38:41,987 --> 00:38:45,655 strange lights are reported on the horizon. 711 00:38:45,757 --> 00:38:49,659 Two U.S. servicemen are dispatched to the site 712 00:38:49,761 --> 00:38:51,661 to investigate what they believe 713 00:38:51,763 --> 00:38:55,198 could be a possible downed aircraft. 714 00:38:55,300 --> 00:39:00,170 Some U.S. servicemen at a base called Woodbridge 715 00:39:00,272 --> 00:39:03,239 saw a strange light over the forest 716 00:39:03,342 --> 00:39:05,275 and went to investigate, 717 00:39:05,377 --> 00:39:11,114 and in a clearing came across this landed craft. 718 00:39:11,216 --> 00:39:15,985 One of them saw these strange sequence of symbols 719 00:39:16,088 --> 00:39:18,355 upon the side of it. 720 00:39:18,457 --> 00:39:24,394 The object then rose up and disappeared out of sight. 721 00:39:26,431 --> 00:39:28,698 What were these hieroglyphs? 722 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:33,002 Were we meant to see them? Were we meant to record them? 723 00:39:33,105 --> 00:39:36,740 There are some very famous cases 724 00:39:36,842 --> 00:39:40,910 of hieroglyphs being seen on the side 725 00:39:41,012 --> 00:39:45,281 of what appeared to be flying saucers or UFOs. 726 00:39:45,384 --> 00:39:47,517 Another UFO incident 727 00:39:47,619 --> 00:39:51,988 where hieroglyphs were seen on the side of a strange craft 728 00:39:52,090 --> 00:39:55,992 took place at Kecksburg, in Pennsylvania. 729 00:39:57,796 --> 00:40:01,765 On December 9, 1965, a fireball was seen 730 00:40:01,867 --> 00:40:05,101 streaking through the skies of-of Michigan and Ontario 731 00:40:05,203 --> 00:40:09,372 and then crashing in Pennsylvania. 732 00:40:09,474 --> 00:40:13,109 And this became known as the Kecksburg UFO. 733 00:40:13,211 --> 00:40:15,712 But what they said that they found 734 00:40:15,814 --> 00:40:19,149 on this bell-shaped object 735 00:40:19,251 --> 00:40:24,053 were strange hieroglyphic writing all along the base, 736 00:40:24,156 --> 00:40:28,892 very similar to the early pictographs and petroglyphs 737 00:40:28,994 --> 00:40:31,561 and geoglyphs that we find all over the world. 738 00:40:31,663 --> 00:40:35,632 Could the details of these and other UFO reports 739 00:40:35,734 --> 00:40:39,402 provide proof that the geoglyphs and petroglyphs 740 00:40:39,504 --> 00:40:41,438 found all across the world 741 00:40:41,540 --> 00:40:45,975 were actually inspired by alien encounters in the distant past? 742 00:40:48,413 --> 00:40:50,280 I believe that one day we will break 743 00:40:50,382 --> 00:40:53,917 the entire code of the ancient language locked away 744 00:40:54,019 --> 00:40:57,854 in the petroglyphs, geoglyphs, and even megaliths of the world. 745 00:40:57,956 --> 00:41:00,356 And in it, we may find information 746 00:41:00,459 --> 00:41:03,660 that is vital to mankind. 747 00:41:03,762 --> 00:41:05,862 When we're really able to understand 748 00:41:05,964 --> 00:41:07,363 these geoglyphs and petroglyphs, 749 00:41:07,466 --> 00:41:10,700 we may find that there is a message for us 750 00:41:10,802 --> 00:41:13,336 that we have been missing all this time. 751 00:41:13,438 --> 00:41:14,971 One day, hopefully, 752 00:41:15,073 --> 00:41:19,275 we will find that knowledge and know that message. 753 00:41:19,377 --> 00:41:22,445 It may be that there's a sort of metaphysical time lock 754 00:41:22,547 --> 00:41:24,881 or a timeline for the decoding 755 00:41:24,983 --> 00:41:26,594 of the petroglyphs and geoglyphs. 756 00:41:26,618 --> 00:41:27,984 Maybe now is the time 757 00:41:28,086 --> 00:41:31,221 for us to fully understand what those messages are. 758 00:41:31,323 --> 00:41:35,391 Perhaps the keys to breaking the alien code 759 00:41:35,494 --> 00:41:39,028 are all around us, and have been hiding in plain sight 760 00:41:39,130 --> 00:41:41,965 for thousands of years. 761 00:41:42,067 --> 00:41:46,002 All we need to do to unlock their mystery is to see them 762 00:41:46,104 --> 00:41:50,673 from the same perspective as our extraterrestrial ancestors. 763 00:41:50,775 --> 00:41:53,810 We must look at them from the sky. 764 00:41:56,810 --> 00:42:00,810 Preuzeto sa www.titlovi.com 61459
