So what was lost in the floods? Mankind moved inland, but his prior civilization was no doubt along the coasts. So what was lost? Technology. Technology comes from the built up inter-working between the parts of society... over a long period of time. The pyramids were a way of life, the technology to design and build a pyramid is probably the highest achievement of mankind, it likely took tens of thousands of years for mankind to achieve that. Everything is built on the technology that came before, it takes generations upon generations to realize an entire civilization of advanced thought.Now, Graham Hancock is an archaeologist (and a stoner)... he's no climatologist. The
Younger Dryas Cold Event was not caused by "dust in the air". There was no dust in the air for 1300 years, that's just crazy. Let's look at it:
So, what I see here is an epoch warming event immediately met by the North American ice sheet being struck by a fractured meteorite. Big time melting, lots of flooding and what happens when ice melts? It absorbs a lot of heat from the atmosphere; hence the cooling. Then, when the ice is all melted it warms back up and another ice sheet breaks off and melts, more flooding, more cooling, and then it warms up again, and then another. From start to finish, I see 7 major flood events over the course of 5000 years, the final one producing the 8200 year cooling event.
That's going to produce a lot of flood myths, dontchathink?
Noah's flood looks like a local flood to me, but it was part of a global flooding event.
Now, about those pyramids. Those were power plants. You put a power plant in the middle of a city to power the city. The pyramids sent an energy beam straight up the center and bounced it off the atmosphere. The energy beam would then return down in a mushroom like enclosure providing energy for all within. Something as big as the pyramids at Giza might have been powering a very large region, a lot more than just a city. Egypt appears to have been an ancient industrial center (before the flood, when most of Europe would have been covered with a 2 mile thick ice sheet) ... pyramids abounded. One of those pyramids exploded. Another one exploded over in Peru. Ancient industrial accidents... imagine the workman's comp lawsuits! BTW, the above ground pyramids are levitating, there has been zero settling for the Great Pyramid's 6 million tons of stone; remember, the pyramids are resonating underground streams, they are all built over top of underground rivers.
The reason Graham says the most important archaeological site on the planet is the crude pyramid built in Indonesia is because it was started inland in reaction to the first flood. It was built slowly over scores of centuries by a civilization ravaged by the inundation of most of their continent. This was an ancient attempt to move the civilization inland. I'm not sure later generations understood what they were building any more or how to finish it. I agree with Graham, it is very important historical knowledge for us to recover... it's a picture window peering into what happened to pyramid technology after the floods.
Then the floods drowned all that. It was all lost. The earth was not void and totally water covered - as it was in Genesis 1:2 - but the civilization and the technology it spawned was lost. Man started over from scratch, became a hunter gatherer... lived in caves... this was post flood human civilization. Slowly we began to put the pieces back together. The laws came first... how to live like a human, instead of an animal... and eventually society started to function again. When civilization finally came back, the technology started to recover. We are still recovering technology today. And we have a ways to go before we are ready to build a pyramid, we are still figuring out what they are, and how they work, and we have such backward governments still today that they fight against progress; they look into technology that kills man, but they stymie technology that provides a better living for man.
Man has always been taught by the gods. The gods came down and lived amongst us. Now we are arriving at a point where God is going to resurrect humans to come down and live amongst us, and teach us, and heal us. Lead us forward. Hopefully they will be able to get the pyramids working again for us. Beating swords into plowshares = turning our technology from war to peace. Pyramid technology is peaceful technology. And funny enough, there's healing in them as well. It has to be more than a coincidence that we finally are beginning to learn about the pyramids just as the time has come up on the first resurrection of mankind. We are about to enter a thousand year period of peace and healing for the nations, but not before we damn near destroy the species with our warring technology, so we understand that we have to go after the technology that promotes peace and healing, not war.
