| Submarine megalithic structures off the coasts of Malta,
Egypt, Lebanon, India, China, and Japan in waters up to 70 meters deep
were evidently submerged when the Ice Age ended and sea-level rose about
100 meters because of runoff from the melting of the Ice Age ice-packs.
Many of these megaliths were astronomical measuring devices, which indicates
that their Ice Age constructors had map-making capabilities and sailed
the seas, as demonstrated by a commonality of the architectural motifs
of the megaliths worldwide, and as demonstrated by Turkish navigational
maps which were sourced from ancient Phoenician maps and show coastlines
of the Ice Age world with accuracies of latitude and longitude to not
be matched until modern times.
Mainstream earth-chronologists insist that the Ice Age ended around
10000 B.C., at which point the sea-level rose to submerge these megaliths.
However, the submerged megaliths are of designs and uses characteristic
of around 2000 B.C. Are we therefore to believe that advanced civilizations
actually began before 10000 B.C., and not around 3000 B.C. (as is commonly
published)? Mainstream archaeologists have said that the advanced civilizations
of the Old and New Worlds appeared suddenly around 3000 B.C. without
evidence of cultural and technological evolution to that pyramid-building
level of mathematical and engineering sophistication, therefore, how
can it be that the megaliths were submerged 12,000 years ago?
In the Rig Veda of ancient Hinduism, the text says that the N.W. Indian
city of Dwarka was submerged by the encroaching ocean when the ancient
patriarch Krishna died. Are we to believe that Krishna died around 10000
B.C, and therefore, that Hinduism is over 12,000 years old? The megaliths
of ancient Dwarka are in fact found submerged just offshore from modern
Dwarka, and the huge stone walls built of megalithic blocks which had
been interlocked with chiseled L-shaped dovetails are characteristic
of the Indus Civilization that popularly is advertised to have had flourished
near 2000 B.C., not 10000 B.C. The Gulfs of Cambay and Kutch, just south
of Dwarka, also hold submerged megalithic Indus Civilization structures
that were covered by the ocean at the melting of the Ice Age.
Computer generated maps of the world as it was during the Ice Age reveal
that ancient Dwarka was about 100 km inland during the Ice Age, and
also inland were the now submerged Indus Civilization megaliths on the
floor of the Gulfs of Kutch and Cambay, and as were the megaliths of
Tamil pyramidal construction off the coast of southern India at Cape
Cormorin and Madurai. Ancient Hindu legends reveal that two Sangums
(schools) were submerged by encroaching seas, and local divers say that
the submerged pyramids look like the current Sangum pyramid at Madurai.
According to the computer generated Ice Age maps, about 25 million square
miles of land were submerged by the rising sea-level because of the
melting of the Ice Age ice-pack, and much of that land is now the floor
of the shallow seas of southern Asia. To the east of India, Ice Age
megaliths of the Jomon Civilization are found on the sea-floor between
Japan and Taiwan (at Yonaguni, Kerama, Chatan, and more). These stone
circles, tiered plazas, and step-pyramids of astronomical measuring
significance are found on the sea-floor, as they are on land, thus proving
that these buildings were of the same time period.
Are we to believe that these astronomically significant megaliths were
built some 12,000 years ago at a time when mainstream earth-chronologists
insist that the Ice Age ended and sea level resultantly rose about 100
meters to engulf these megaliths which are evidently and contradictorily
of 2000 B.C. vintage? Are we to believe that the Hindu and Tamil recounts
of history have been going on for 12,000 years, and that humanity developed
no further and built no more for 7,000 years (from 10000 B.C. to 3000
B.C.) until advanced cultures reemerged in Egypt and Sumeria (Babylon)?
Such a torturous manipulation of the evidences from the archaeology
and the ancient legends is unnecessary with the realization that the
Ice Age did in fact end much later than is popularly advertised.
Egypt and Sumeria were building their megaliths when the Indus, Tamil,
and Jomon people were building theirs during the Ice Age. Heavy water
erosion of the limestone walls in the Sphinx quarry and of the non-coated
limestone pyramids evidence the heavy rainfall of the Ice Age climate
in the middle latitudes around 2000 B.C., and submerged megaliths in
the Mediterranean off the coast of Egypt at Sidi Gaber and Kinessa,
off the coast of Lebanon at Yarmuta and Sidon, off Malta at Sliema,
and at other locations known (and yet to be discovered), these all corroborate
the end-of-the-Ice Age inundation of vast tracts of land with their
megaliths of 2000 B.C. form and function.
The Ice Age ice-packs did melt rapidly and globally at the close of
the Ice Age as evidenced by the legends about the ocean having risen
to engulf historical cities, and by the contemporaneously deposited
rock-debris fields from melted icebergs on the ocean-floors of the world
which reveal that flotillas of icebergs concurrently broke-away from
various continents at the close of the Ice Age and then melted to deposit
together rocks from various parts of the world. And the Ice Age ended
within decades because the greater evaporation off the oceans required
for the dense cloud-cover for the snow-blitz in the extreme latitudes
and for the much greater rainfall in the middle latitudes was depleted
as the oceans had finally cooled to today's temperatures.
The Ice Age can only be explained by warmer oceans which induced greater
evaporation to form the dense cloud-cover for the prolific snowfalls
and rainfalls of the Ice Age, and this is confirmed by the increasing
O18 isotope concentrations with depth in the polar ice-packs that reveal
the fact that the oceans were cooling to today's levels while the Ice
Age ice-packs were accumulating. Scientists have calculated that the
oceans were about 10 degrees centigrade warmer at the beginning of the
Ice Age, and that it took about 800 years for the ocean-water to cool
to today's temperatures when the Ice Age ended.
At the close of the Ice Age, as the two-mile-deep Ice Age ice-packs
melted and ran-off into the oceans, isostatic rebound of the earth's
crust occurred beneath the then diminishing snow and ice overburden,
and therefore, lands closer to the Ice Age ice-pack rose as the sea-level
rose, so less land was claimed by the sea in the Mediterranean and the
North Seas than was claimed by the seas around southern Asia. This period
of isostatic readjustment is confirmed by the eruption of Santorini
in the eastern Mediterranean, the calamities associated with the Exodus
of the Jews from Egypt, the apparent volcanic and ocean-inundation caused
destruction of the Minoans of Crete, and by the commonly acknowledged
mass-migrations of people groups, all having had occurred around 1500
B.C.
The tiered plazas and ramps of the submerged Jomon megaliths of offshore
Japan bear a notable resemblance to the pre-Incan megaliths of the Gateway
to the Sun at Tiahuanaco in Bolivia, and ancient Jomon pottery has been
found in Peru, so it seems that the Jomon were navigators and astronomers
who also settled in the New World during the Ice Age. The ancient Olmecs
of Central America had a legend that they came from across the eastern
sea, and the onshore megalithic statues of the Olmecs depict their African
facial features, and their language closely resembles that of the Mande
of Africa who speak a Lybyco-Berber tongue. The Toltecs and Mayans who
sprang from the Olmecs built pyramids with astronomical orientations
reflective of these peoples' deep knowledge about the precession of
the stars, so it seems that they also were astro-navigators who sailed
the seas around 2000 B.C.
Astonishingly accurate navigational maps which show the coastlines of
most of the world as they were before the end of the Ice Age were utilized
by Turkish admirals and possibly Christopher Columbus in the 15th century
A.D. The Piri Reis Map of this period shows the coastline of Antarctica
before the ice and snow of the Ice Age had entombed the underlying rocky
shoreline. This map even accurately charted the rivers and bays of Antarctica
before they were covered by the ice and snow of the Ice Age, and Admiral
Piri Reis noted on this map that the source maps for his map were saved
from the ancient Library of Alexandria by the Franks and were brought
to Constantinople when that great Library of ancient Egypt was destroyed.
These ancient source maps known as portolani were credited to the "Tyranean
Sea Fish" who were master-navigators from Phoenicia (Sidon), and
who had linguistic affinity to the Lybyco-Berber-speaking Olmecs of
Central America.
The ancient history book Popol Vue of the Olmec-descended Mayans recalls
the time when their seafaring ancient ancestors arrived from the east
because of their sophisticated navigational skills as they "studied
and measured the round face of the earth and the arch of the sky"
in a time of "constant twilight" and "black rain."
The obviously heavy volcanic ash content of this rain and the dense
cloud-cover from which this rain came that blocked the sun to cause
"constant twilight" shows that the Mayan ancestors arrived
during the Ice Age. Heavy volcanism during the Ice Age is confirmed
by the large concentrations of ash within the polar ice-packs. And lithic
pictures on the Gateway to the Sun in Bolivia show South American Ice
Age animals like the toxodon, the elephant, and the three-toed horse,
therefore, for many reasons, we can safely say that much of the world
was populated by sophisticated engineers and navigators during the Ice
Age, while the oceans were cooling, as evidenced by the decreasing O18
isotope concentrations with depth in the polar ice-packs.
The Rig Veda of the Hindus says that the Aryans fled from the north
country because of ever intensifying snow and ice that was the build-up
of the Ice Age ice-pack in Russia, probably around 2000 B.C. And artistic
seals discovered from the Indus Civilization portray parrots, monkeys,
and elephants which suggests that the currently arid N.W. Indian and
Pakistani region was then tropical because of the much heavier rains
in the middle latitudes during the Ice Age. The Sahel (which means shoreline)
in N. Africa was a series of inland seas during the Ice Age when the
Egyptian Civilization was developing, and Jason and the Argonauts, according
to Herodotus, sailed into the Triton Sea of Libya (now the Quattera
Depression), probably around 1500 BC. Lithic art in the Sahel portrays
crocodiles, elephants, and deer which further corroborates human civilization
during the Ice Age in the now arid Sahara desert of North Africa. There
also is evidence of a port city at the base of the Ahaggar mountains
of southern Algeria which was obviously thriving during the Ice Age.
Global warming could not have caused the higher evaporation rates from
the ocean to cause the dense cloud-cover for the Ice Age because with
this type of ocean warming, increased clouds would have shielded the
earth from heat, and thusly, would have caused the atmosphere to cool
back down, that is a buffer system within the hydrologic cycle. Therefore,
the heating of the oceans to cause the Ice Age must have come from below,
from beneath the earth's crust, that was the "Fountains of the
Deep" of Noah's Flood.
Hundreds of extant and ancient tribes speak of this global flood in
their legends, and geology confirms that the vast sedimentary layers
on the continents with billions of creatures therewith entombed were
obviously deposited in a global flood that covered the continents. The
lack of tension cracks in the now folded sedimentary layers of the mountains
shows that the mountains rose after the sedimentary layers were deposited
and while those layers were still moist and malleable, therefore, for
these and many other reasons, the Genesis account should be acknowledged
to be an accurate book of ancient history.
