there's nothing great about the present day.

Because this is The Backstage and we post whatever we want here.

Your point being? What was your pre-ban username? What country are you from?

Its Mayan... they used PURE GOLD saddles....

It was a limited edition from El Dorado, though this one wasn't gold leafed.

And last time I checked this was the Backstage and its for "General discussions not covered by other forums."

I bet being so old it has great tone, very resonant

They all fit together perfectly without mortar. How did man get such technology thousands of years ago?

Aliens.

Ancient peoples also had electricity (Baghdad Battery, and hieroglyphs of lightbulb looking structures) and air planes (golden mini airplanes statues found n ancient south america) too. I'm sure the library of Alexandria held a lot of this information, but, obviously it is forever lost.

Also, the thing that reallt gets me about pyramids isn't the size, but the age. The great pyramid was build 5000 years before Hammurabi. Hammurabi was the first recorded person to have laws in his kingdom. How the hell did people get organized enough to build something that amazing when they weren't even smart enough to hve written law?

Why does it have to be Aliens all the time?

Why are humans not smart enough to figure this shit out by themselves but instead have to rely on old ET to enlighten them? Ever think that our understanding of 'primitive man' maybe very primitive itself for lack of evidence and understanding? That most of our concepts of how our ancestors behaved and thought are based on the most circumstantial evidence and colored by the lense of our belief systems today?

If I was on a ship and took a laptop and threw it overboard for some society in the future to discover, what do you think they would make of it? Especially if it had been corroded for a few thousand years? Think that they would catch on?

Over the past 20,000 years our brains have not changed in size or capacity. People back then had the potential to devise everything that we have today, but would there be evidence of this?

thank the great pumpkin you're here geo. i hate it when people shout alien.

to be fair, though - Aliens do (or have) exist(ed), i'm sure. but i'm equally sure they didn't come and build fricking pyramids here. they may have all died out billions of years ago, let's face it.

[Splattle101]

We 'forget' stuff all the time, as a society. We've already forgotten how to build large wooden sailing ships the way they were done in the 1700s and before. The technology moves on, and we use something else, and everybody forgets.

It's another example of our cultural sky fetish. God's up there, too. And angels. And aliens.

But the fact is, we didn't fall from the sky. We grew up from the Earth. The human race is still having trouble coming to terms with this.

I visited the Altun Ha ruins outside Belize City in winter 2002 while on a dive vacation to Lighthouse Reef. Very cool stuff to see in person, and more amazing that these cities were just lost in time, due to jungle growth.

Amazing, the sense of symmetry they had back in those primitive times. From what I remember, the reason for the disappearance of such civilizations was still undetermined, while subject to much scientific theory.

More of Altun Ha....

Now this is an interesting thread. (Except for the Jagoff asking stupid questions on his first post). I'm trippin on that clock like device and the hi-res photos with the adjustable light java plugin.

IDK. The cave painting and hieroglyphs of aliens and stuff seem to point to some extraterrestial influence. It's also all over the Bible and Biblical iconography.

"of aliens"? You mean the stick figures? What's all over the Bible? Aliens?

Fantastic reading....unbelievable stuff......

When I read this about the Great Pyramid, it's just beyond explanation:

The Amazing Properties of the Sides of the Great Pyramid

1. The direct corner to corner length of a side (A to E) is 26524.2 Pyramid Inches, which is precisely 100 times the length of a Mean Solar Tropical Year (Equinoctial)

2. The indented measurement of a side (ABDE) is 36525.6 Pyramid Inches whish is precisely 100 times the number of days in a Sidereal Year. (The Earths Solar Revolution)

3. The theoretical length of the declination of a side (ACE) is 36525.9 Pyramid Inches which is precisely 100 times the number of days in the Anomalistic Year (The Earth's Orbital Revolution)

The shape of the sides of the pyramid are therefore describing to us a Tropical Year, a Sidereal Year and Anomalistic Year in days. Thus in the measure of a year, which has to be a constant by any standards for those living on Planet Earth we have a measure of distance and in that measure of distance a unit of measure of distance. A unit of measure that has traversed the centuries, free from any of the corrosive activities of Man, a unit of measure implicitly contained in a ratio, and a ratio confirmed in each of the four sides of the pyramid. Converting this unit of measure to the Pyramid or Primitive Inch we find:

A. The Tropical Year as 365.242 days is represented by 36524.2 Pyramid Inches
B. The Sidereal Year as 365.256 days is represented by 36525.6 Pyramid Inches
C. The Anomalistic Year as 365.259 days is represented by 36525.9 Pyramid Inches

Thus the length of the Pyramid Inch is defined and it turns out to be 1.00106 British Inches, an amazingly close correspondence to our present day standard.

The Polar Radius of the Earth. If all of this seems improbable, impossible and a figment of the imagination then the introduction of the Sacred Cubit will add to the surprise. It is accepted that twenty five Pyramid Inches equals one Sacred Cubit in other words in one Sacred Cubit there are 25 Pyramid Inches. Precisely ten million Sacred Cubits equals 3949.89 statute miles and in 1957 satellite observations confirmed that the Earth's mean polar radius was the same 3949.89 statute miles. Thus the dimensions employed in the Great Pyramid are a direct function of the dimensions of the Earth to an accuracy of six digits. And this is to a standard that our current civilisation could not confirm until the year 1957!
Other figures that emerge from the peculiar triangulation of the Great Pyramid's side are very close approximations to the maxima and minima (0.004 and 0.0019) for the eccentricity of the Earth's orbit and the diameter of the Earth's orbit (185,984,540 miles).

The Validity of the Pyramid Inch. It must be emphasised that the above is only a tiny fraction of the correspondences found in this incredible structure. The sole point of including this data at all is to give weight, significance and accreditation to a dimension that, otherwise, the reader might find somewhat bewildering and doubtful. The point must be emphasised that there can be little doubt as to the validity of the Pyramid Inch and Sacred Cubit, nor can there be any doubt that these dimensions were the product of a very advanced technological civilisation, that is, by any standards that we as a race might employ.

Having defined these antediluvian units of length from a measure of time we now paradoxically and improbably reverse the process by measuring time from the lengths of the pyramid's internal passages.

Thanks for the link, I love that stuff!

Yup. It's the only real explaination for a lot of earth's advancments. We just aren't that smart.
