Dogon tribe

Researchers are often finding various artefacts that can show us tremendous knowledge of ancient people. But these knowledges faced an interesting paradox. While on the one hand are teachers in schools telling us that people and all nations weren´t in past so advanced, on the other hand we can find everyday facts, which are showing us something else. People in ancient times were much more educated than we can imagine or want to admit. One of these nations with enormous knowledge are Dogon people. 

Dogon, who live in western Afrika, are not at first sight so different. Their sacred tree is Baobab and sacred animals are fox, snake and crocodile. However, in something quite substantial, are different. Dogon have surprisingly big knowledge of astronomy. Already in ancient times they knew Jupiter´s four moons and Saturn´s rings, which weren´t seen by "civilized" world until to the invention of the telescope. But that´s not all. Next are their legends linked to the Sirius star, which they considered Tristar. But modern science discovered second sirius star (and named it Sirius-B) in 1862 and Sirius-C is still under discussion, since its existence would explain irregularities in the movements of Sirius-B and the entire system. Even their knowledge say that Sirius B is the heaviest thing in the universe and scientific computing actually revealed that the weight of Sirius B is 50 tons per cubic centimeter. Furthermore, they have four calendars - one for the Sun, Moon, Venus and Sirius.  

There are many critics who claim that the Dogon gained their knowledge from  the researchers, missionaries or during wars, in which were men recruited. But as was mentioned above, they know these informations before there were confirmed by modern science. Even in 1930 it was the most isolated nation in Africa. So the question is: Where do they get these huge knowledges? Legends speak of gods who came to Earth from the Sirius system. Next, legends says, that there was a creature called Nommo, who was the first living being created by the god, creator of the universe, Amma. Nommos were amphibious, epicene creatures whose upper body was human and the lower back fish. These creatures, which need water to live, may remind the legends of the mermaids. It is therefore possible that even medieval sailors during their voyages met with the ancient teachers of Dogon and their descendants.  These beings, which should inhabited a world that was part of Sirius, came down to Earth from heaven in a boat accompanied by fire and terrible noise, which can evoke landing spaceship.

Interesting are also other informations. As indicated above, in 1930, Dogon tribe was the most isolated nation in Africa. In 1931 a group of ethnographers and travelers, led by Marcel Griaule and Germaine Diterlen undertake a research of life, religion and customs of this African nation. These researchers found out that the legends of the Dogon tribe also speak about genetically engineering through which we were created. They say that our creators made experiments and in fact made three different versions of humans. The idea of genetic engineering are encountered also in the other parts of the world. Overall, the authors of conspiracy theories argue that Earth is a sort of "experimental laboratory" and that all mythical creatures like harpies, sphinxes, centaurs, mermaids, and many others actually existed and were result of different genetic mutations and trials. 

Last questions which remains is: Why experts are not trying to learn more from this tribe, which has so precise knowledge? Is it possible that they know also something what world should not know?

Religions

People always believed in something. Whether it were natural forces influencing the world of individuals or the belief in various gods, their worship, bringing sacrifices or waiting for their return. Anyhow, in the world we can find a variety of beliefs respectively religions that preach their teaching and expect adherence to certain principles. In today´s modern world, many religions may not seem like something important or as something that is within each of us deeply entrenched, but as stated Sean O´Callaghan "existence of religion across the entire human society and culture led many thinkers to believe that the human psyche operates a common factor," while on the one hand are human beings somehow "predisposed to believe" on the other, their belief derives from a "variety of geographic, political, climatic and philosophical and psychological conditions."

Man is thus predetermined to the belief in certain factors, but, people within the religion store informations from their ancestors, which are passed down from generation to generation as something sacred. But we do not need automatically assume that all these informations are something incredible, maybe the imagination of the author, articulation and expression of different stories that happened. Often in religious texts, we can find an old truth. Knowledge, which have long remained hidden. As an example, we can take The Book of Enoch, where we can find:

„And it came to pass when the children of men had multiplied that in those days were born unto them beautiful and comely daughters. And the angels, the children of the heaven, saw and lusted after them, and said to one another: 'Come, let us choose us wives from among the children of men and beget us children.' (...) And all the others together with them took unto themselves wives, and each chose for himself one, and they began to go in unto them and to defile themselves with them, and they taught them charms and enchantments, and the cutting of roots, and made them acquainted with plants. And they became pregnant, and they bare great giants, whose height was three thousand ells.“

The Book of Enoch therefore gives us information about the terrible giants who once lived on Earth. This information may seem fantastic, but around the world are discovering the information and findings, which are showing us that these giants once really lived. Even in Malta may be find temples called Ggantija, which means "belonging to the giants," who had them build. Except of these temples, we get into the hand more tangible evidence. Giant bones, skulls, mummies and even entire huge weapons were find throughout the world. From all of them we can mention finding from 1911. In a cave in Lovelock, Nevada, were find several giant skeletons and ancient artifacts. In 1950 were found in the Euphrates Valley giants tombs with the remains of the height of 4,2 to 4,8 metres. Another important finding is the report of Gregory Spoerri, who in 2012 brought to the world pictures of giant finger which were made before more than 20 years.

Finger owned Arab family, originating from grave robbers, refusing to sell it. Apparently, man with this finger, should measure at least five meters. About giants in Egypt were also talking Roman historian Flavius Josephus, who reported that in the history of Jewish War were giants. „Much larger and shaped differently than normal people. Terrible to behold. Who has not seen it with my own eyes, can not believe that they have been so immense.“ 
  
Giants are reported also in other important documents of different religions or even cultures. However, despite archaeological findings, which are often keeping hidden, experts and lay people still refuse to believe in the authenticity of the informations contained in the sacred texts.

Myths

In general are on myths different views. As reported Sarah Bartlett "according to one theory were the authors actually primitive scientists who have tried to explain how the world originated." But, why we should assume that the authors were automatically primitives? Ancient cultures were in many ways much more advanced than it may seem. In addition to monumental buildings whose purpose or method of construction is still not known, excelled these people also in medicine or astrology. We can therefore assume that the ancients have left us in myths true informations, which might be over the ages through oral traddition little changed.

One of these myths, which can be considered as a common theme of different cultures and peoples, is the Great Flood. Through the flood is humanity punished while was saved only a selected, few, morally pure individuals. Atrachsís, Utnapishtim, Deukalion or Noah. These and many others are representatives of heroes who built an ark and survived the Great Flood. Of course their stories differ depending on culture, region or religion and in type of vessel or rescued individuals. On the one hand, the different cultures can this myth from each other download, but there is also the possibility, that once really was a worldwide flood, which refer to all nations. This flood would be so great that it can quenched islands, within which can be mention Atlantis. As stated by Plato „(...) in a single day and night of misfortune, the Island of Atlantis disappeared into the depths of the sea.“ But there are also other "mythical" countries such as Lemuria or Hyperborea.

Of course all of these stories might seem too fantastic, but on the bottom of oceans and seas are hidden more secrets that you should know. In different places, we can find the remains, which seem to have created by an ancient culture. One of such places is a masive underwater rock formation off the coast of Yonaguni, the southernmost of the Ryukyu Islands, Japan. In 1985 dived in this area Kihachiro Aratake to track the occurrence of hammerhead sharks. Kihachiro found something else. Under water were located megalithic structures, raised terrace, symmetrical channels with circular, two metres deep holes, wide staircase leading to the square and stone pillars. These buildings should, according to some researches, reach the age of 10 000 years or more. Professor Masaaki Kimura is one of the advocates of the theory that these structurs are remains of prehistoric civilization. Of course we can find also critics. Specifically, professor Robert Schoch states, that this formation is „basic geology and classic stratigraphy for sandstones, which tend to break along planes and give very straight edges, particularly in an area with lots of faults and tectonic activity.“

Below the ocean surface are hidden also other, more or less mythological, places and entire cities. And although psychology see myths as the expression of subconscious desires, manifestation of the collective unconscious or as the essence of religion; apparently, it is only a matter of time when we really understand the true depth of knowledge, which were left to us by our ancestors in myths...

The Great Pyramid of Giza, also known as the Pyramid of Cheops or Khufu, is one of the seven wonders of the ancient and modern world. Its height reaches 146,6 meters, while its base covers an area of 230 x 230 meters. The pyramid is almost exactly oriented according to cardinal. In general should pyramids be a tombs of pharaohs, but in the Great Pyramid was discovered only empty sarcophagus. These and many other informations represent for us the basic knowledge. However, the Great Pyramid, like many other places and monuments on Earth are of interest to many researchers, scientists and laymen. One of these was also Napoleon Bonaparte, who spent all night in the Great Pyramid alone, after what he came out white as wall and never said what happened there. He said, that nobody will ever believe him. Based on multifaceted interest to this memory exist many theories about its origin and meaning.Although there are conflicting theories about the aliens building pyramid, which are refuting by scientists who are pointing the "easy" way, in which could build it people, there are still several secrets. As reported Erich von Däniken „Japanese researches have found that at least three percent of the pyramid must form a cavities, so there should be chambers and corridors, which yet remain undiscovered.

(...) the French believed that the cavities must be up to fifteen percent of the volume of the pyramid." Some of these chambers can hide much bigger secrets than we can imagine. Knowledge. Knowledge concealed from the world. Manuscript in Oxford Library brings us information that on the order of King Surid hide priests in the Great Pyramid summary of all knowledge. Furthermore, even Däniken claims that the Great Pyramid was built precisely as a place for written knowledge, that extraterrestrials have provided to people, and which were here protected against flood. Interesting report brings us also Paul Brunton, who during meditation in the tomb of the Pharaoh Cheops got the inspiration of a further chamber in which should be hidden documents about the history of mankind.

During meditation he met strange beings, shadows but also two High Priests from Ancient Egypt, who appeared to him in luminous form. One of the Priests told him about room in the pyramid and also said that: „it matters not whether thou discover the door or not. Find but the secret passage within the mind that lead thee to the hidden chamber within whine own soul, and thou shalt have found something worthy indeed. The mystery of the Great Pyramid is the mystery of thine own self. The secret chambers and ancient records are all contained in thine own nature. The lesson of the Pyramid is that man must turn inward, must venture to the uknown centre of his being to find his soul, even as he must venure to the unknown depths of this fane to find its profoundes secret.“

Tried priest point out that all knowledges are actually hidden in ourselves and we should only delve into our own inward, to obtain answers to any question regarding being? But what everything the builders of the Great Pyramid hide in it? And can we these secrets still find in the pyramid? This issue is very important especially after the incident in 1990, when several eyewitnesses reported the presence of UFO over the Great Pyramid. UFO was there about three minutes, during which it reviewed the base of the pyramid. According to the Dr. Jacques Claire „after short search they left with object which looked like a box.“
