(bestphone lense) The Pyramid Code, a documentary series of five episodes, explores the pyramid fields and ancient temples in Egypt as well as ancient megalithic sites from around the world, looking for clues to matriarchal consciousness, ancient knowledge, and sophisticated technology in a Golden Age.

The series is based on the extensive research done on 23 trips to Egypt and 50 other countries around the world by Dr. Carmen Boulter in the Graduate Division of Educational Research at the University of Calgary.

The Pyramid Code features interviews with prominent scholars and authors in multidisciplinary fields: geology, physics, astrophysics, archeology, biological engineering, magnetic field theory, hieroglyphics, and Egyptology. The series explores penetrating questions:

The Egyptian pyramids have fascinated us for thousands of years. Who built them, how were they built, and why? Experts across Egypt are discovering new information that sheds light on the ancient Egyptians' pyramids and how they evolved.

One theory suggest that King Snefru's Bent Pyramid was not a mistake. Recent discoveries show how the pyramids evolved from [an Asian Buddhist stupa-like] mound of rocks and sand to flat, rectangular mastabas, to the pyramid shape, so famously exhibited in the Great pyramid of Khufu and beyond. Now the archeology is being taken a stage further with new technology.

This series shows how the next generation of archeologists is finally piecing together the secret pyramid code that might have been used by the Egyptians. Reviewer: LesLey-A.

(Smithsonian Channel) April 6, 2020: A warden of England's Rollright Trust claims to be able to tap into the special energy of the Rollright Stones through the medieval technique known as "dowsing." Let's put this method for detecting energy anomalies to the test. From the series: "Mystic Britain: The Rollright Witch"

Let's test this claim empirically.

Simple science: Place levels on hands to see if rod movements are due to unconscious tilts of the hand, not "energy" itself moving the metal. It may indeed be human sensitivity then translated into micro muscle movements, as seems to account for pendulum swinging. All that may be happening is that the body is the transducer, and the rods or pendulum are the outward sign of what our intuitive/sensitive body is experiencing. This "scientific" is not meant to debunk the fact that dowsing works, just to establish that it is not the energy acting directly on the rods but rather a "feeling" is being expressed by unconscious movement, the movement of the hands being the mover of the rods. It would be good to know because it is not human sensitivity, then simply place the rods on a mannequin or robot for an object test. Certainly, there are psi meters used in parapsychological investigations of allegedly haunted sites that should move where dowsers claim ley or energy lines exist. Not everything need be woo-woo if an objective test can be established to test a site. Bringing in a potted plant connected to a kind of (galvanic skin response style) lie detector connected to a sound synthesizer would be a marvelous addition to dowsing, the way British Jimmy Page used in "Whole Lotta Love" live at Madison Square Garden at their greatest performance.

Ancient humans were so much more creative than they are given credit for but seeing as they're just the same as modern ones, that's unsurprising. A group of early humans sailed to Australia on their own, before any civilization had real means of sea travel. [Of course, they did have a means, and 50,000 years ago, aboriginals from Australia and/or New Zealand traveled to what is now the USA.]

Those blokes must have been flat-out like a lizard drinking. It's amazing early humans managed to survive at all. At one point there were only 10,000 of what we would describe as humans (Homo sapiens), and they coexisted and mated with Neanderthals and other early advanced primates.

We could have turned out quite differently, and a lot hairier. Check out those facts and plenty of others about our marvelous world in this gallery of little-known things that can change how we see the world. eBaum's World via MSN.com

From the Buddhist empires of Indonesia (Java), India, Burma, Cambodia to the Greek kingdoms Buddhist Bactria and Europe to Africa (Egypt), to China, to Mexico and the Mayan sites of modern Mesoamerica and the Indigenous dwellings of the Americas, these breathtaking ruins offer a fascinating insight into how some of the world’s oldest cultures lived. Here are 30 ancient sites that any history lover should visit at least once in their lifetime.

We are lied to. Much is kept from us. Which country has the most pyramids? No, not Egypt. Not Mexico. It is Syria. (Who even knew there were any there? If there are 167 Egyptian pyramids, there are about 220 ancient Syrian ones. Yet, we do not remember ever being shown even one of them).

The largest pyramid in the world? Egypt? No, not even close. The largest is in Cholula, Mexico. But there are likely larger ones in Bosnia and Indonesia, super ancient sites the size of mountains. We are not allowed to believe in those. They certainly look like pyramids from a distance. Closer up it is not as clear. They are so old they have crumbled and are overgrown. But at least in Bosnia, there is a tunnel system underneath, just as we find in Cholula, Mexico, and Egypt.

Egypt’s Great Pyramid and other ancient monuments at Giza exist on an isolated strip of land in Africa at the edge of the Sahara Desert.

The inhospitable location has long puzzled archaeologists, some of whom had found evidence that the Nile River once flowed near these pyramids in some capacity, facilitating the landmarks’ construction starting 4,700 years ago.

Using satellite imaging and analysis of cores of sediment, a new study published Thursday (5/16/24) in the journal Communications Earth & Environment has mapped a 40-mile (64-kilometer) long, dried-up, branch of the Nile, long buried beneath farmland and desert.

“Even though many efforts to reconstruct the early Nile waterways have been conducted, they have largely been confined to soil sample collections from small sites, which has led to the mapping of only fragmented sections of the ancient Nile channel systems,” said lead study author Eman Ghoneim, a professor and director of the Space and Drone Remote Sensing Lab at the University of North Carolina Wilmington’s department of Earth and ocean sciences.

“This is the first study to provide the first map of the long-lost ancient branch of the Nile River.”

Prof. Ghoneim and her colleagues refer to this extinct branch of the Nile River as Ahramat, which is Arabic for “pyramids.”

The ancient waterway would have been about one-third of a mile (0.5 kilometers) wide with a depth of at least 82 feet (25 meters) — similar to the contemporary Nile River, Prof. Ghoneim said.

“The large size and extended length of the Ahramat Branch and its proximity to the 31 pyramids in the study area strongly suggests a functional waterway of great importance,” Prof. Ghoneim said.

She said the river would have played a key role in ancient Egyptians’ transportation of the enormous amount of building materials and laborers needed for the pyramids’ construction.

“Also, our research shows that many of the pyramids in the study area have [a] causeway, a ceremonial raised walkway, that runs perpendicular to the course of the Ahramat Branch and terminates directly on its riverbank.”

Traces of the river aren’t visible in aerial photos or in imagery from optical satellites, Prof. Ghoneim said. In fact, she only spotted something unexpected while studying radar satellite data of the wider area for ancient rivers and lakes that might reveal a new source of groundwater.

“I am a geomorphologist, a paleohydrologist looking into landforms. I have this kind of trained eye,” she said. “While working with this data, I noticed this really obvious branch or a kind of riverbank, and it didn’t make any sense because it is really far from the Nile,” she added.

Born and raised in Egypt, Prof. Ghoneim was familiar with the cluster of pyramids in this area and had always wondered why they were built there.

She applied to the National Science Foundation to investigate further, and geophysical data taken at ground level with the use of ground-penetrating radar and electromagnetic tomography confirmed it was an ancient arm of the Nile.

Two long cores of earth the team extracted using drilling equipment revealed sandy sediment consistent with a river channel at a depth of about 82 feet (25 meters).

It’s possible that “countless” temples might still be buried beneath the agricultural fields and desert sands along the riverbank of the Ahramat Branch, according to the study.

Why this branch of the river dried up or disappeared is still unclear. Most likely, a period of drought and desertification swept sand into the region, silting up the river, Prof. Ghoneim said.

The study demonstrated that when the pyramids were built, the geography and riverscapes of the Nile differed significantly from those of today, said Nick Marriner, a geographer at the French National Centre for Scientific Research in Paris.

He was not involved in the study but has conducted research on the fluvial history of Giza.

“The study completes an important part of the past landscape puzzle,” Marriner said.

“By putting together these pieces we can gain a clearer picture of what the Nile floodplain looked like at the time of the pyramid builders and how the ancient Egyptians harnessed their environments to transport building materials for their monumental construction endeavors.”
