Tag: Hidden History

In Part 1 of this two-part series, I looked at reservoirs and hydroelectric projects in Canada and the United States, among other things, to bring forward their characteristics of advanced engineering which does not fit our historical narrative, like those projects of Hydro-Quebec in northern Quebec; the Churchill Falls Generating Station in the Province of Labrador; in Sault-Ste-Marie, also known as “The Soo,” divided between Ontario and Michigan; the Columbia Basin Project in Washington State; hydroelectric dam systems along the Columbia River between Washington and Oregon; reservoirs in Portland; the Hoover Dam between Nevada and Arizona; the Scituate Reservoir in Rhode Island; the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir in Central Park, which is connected to the Old Croton Aqueduct; the Upper Roxborough Aqueduct outside of Philadelpha; and the Lake Roland Dam and Reservoir in Baltimore County, north of Baltimore City.

I have one more place to share in the United States before I jump over, as promised, to the reservoir and dam systems in Europe, where I will start in Great Britain.

Someone left a comment about Ohio dams.

So I looked in Ohio and this is just a little of what I found:

One example is the Hoover Dam in Westerville, Ohio, near Columbus.

The construction dates we are given are between 1953 and 1955, and that it was named for two brothers, Charles P. Hoover and Clarence P. Hoover, to honor their careers with the City of Columbus Waterworks.

Then I stumbled across the Ohio River Mainstem Navigation System, a system of locks and dams which begins at the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers at The Point in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and ends at the conflucence of the Ohio and Mississippi River near Cairo, Illinois.

The entire Ohio River Navigation System is operated by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers.

What we are told was that in the early days of steamboat navigation on the Ohio River, the major physical hurdle that delayed travel were the Falls of the Ohio near Louisville, Ohio…

…and that this made steamboat travel very challenging when the water was low.

Thus, it was determined that a canal and lock system was needed to circumvent the Falls of the Ohio.

The construction of the first one, the Louisville & Portland Canal, was said to have started in 1825 and completed in 1830.

We are seriously told the privately-financed canal was constructed by hand-tools, with the help of animal-drawn scrappers and carts.

Next came the Davis Island Lock and Dam site in Avalon, Pennsylvania, said to have been designed by William Emery Merrill, an American soldier and military engineer who graduated first in his class at West Point in 1859, as well as the US Army Corp of Engineers.

Said to have been the first dam constructed on the Ohio River, it officially opened on October 7th of 1885…and was dismantled in 1922…

…when it was said to have been replaced by the Emsworth Locks less than a mile downstream from the original site.

I am very curious about finding the presence of railroad tracks at these hydroelectric and reservoir sites I have been looking at.

I really believe they were built by the original advanced Moorish Civilization that has been removed from our awareness, and that “building” the railroad, and the other infrastructure here that I am researching, actually involved digging them out from the mud flood, making them viable once again and figuring out how to re-start their use.

Let’s see what we find elsewhere. On to Great Britain!

I am going to start with the three Derwent River Dams and Reservoirs, located in the Peak District National Park in the north of England between Sheffield and Manchester…

…with the source of the River Derwent being “Howden Moor.”

As in the case of many places in different parts of the world, the memory of the people is retained in the name, and is a subtle way of hiding the Truth in plain sight.

The Howden Reservoir and Dam is the first of three that are consecutively located on the River Derwent…

…below which the water from the Howden Dam flows…

…immediately into the Derwent Reservoir.

The Derwent Dam and Reservoir is the middle of the three reservoirs in the Upper Derwent Valley in this part of England’s northeast Derbyshire.

This another perspective of the size and masonry of the dam from its base.

Both the Derwent and Howden Dams and Reservoirs were said to have been built between 1902 and 1914, and filled with water between 1914 – 1916.

We are told the Bamford and Howden Railway was constructed between 1901 and 1903, from the village of Bamford to the south of the reservoir to Howden, to carry the many tons of stone required for the construction of the two dams.

We are told these are the remains of the old railway at Derwent Reservoir…

…and that the Bole Hill Quarry in Grindleford supplied well over a million tons of stone needed for the construction of the two dams, and was closed in September of 1914, with the end of the railway following soon afterwards.

Both the Howden and Derwent Reservoirs were used by the pilots of the RAF 617 Squadron for practicing low-level flights needed for Operation Chastise (commonly known as the “Dam-Busters” raids) during World War II.

We are told they were used for flight practice due to their similarity to German Dams.

The narrow twists and turns of the upper Derwent were said to have been like those of the Ruhr River, a tributary of the Rhine, and that even the dams were very similar in their design and shape to those of the Mohne, Eder and Sorpe.

So for one example of the German dams, this is the dam and reservoir today of Mohne, near Dortmund, Germany…

…said to have been built between 1908 and 1913, it was breached by a “bouncing bomb”…

…in a bombing raid on the night of May 16th and 17th in 1943…

…and repaired quickly, we are told, via the Organization Todt…

…a civil and military engineering organization in Nazi Germany between 1933 and 1945, that administered the forced labor supply from concentration camps for construction projects, like the repair patch of the Mohne Dam said to be pictured here.

Is what we are seeing of the breach, and subsequent repair, of the Mohne Dam historically true?

I certainly can’t say for sure one way or the other, but the history of photo manipulation goes back to the beginning of photography in the historical narrative we have been given.

I am just saying that manipulated photos during World War II, in this example, is not outside the realm of possibility. At this point in my research, absolutely nothing would surprise me!

In its role of rebuilding the Mohne Dam, Organization Todt was said to have utilized the labor of 7,000 men taken from the construction of the Atlantic Wall…

…one of the largest building works of the 20th-century, fortifications built between 1942 and 1944, envisioned to make an Allied invasion of the Western European mainland from the Sea impossible.

“Todt” means “dead” in German.

Back to England.

Ladybower is the lowest of the three consecutive dams and reservoirs in the Upper Derwent Valley.

It was said to have been built between 1935 and 1943 by the Derwent Water Board as a supplement to the other two reservoirs in supplying the needs of the East Midlands.

Said to be made out of clay-cored earth embankment, and not solid masonry like the other two I have mentioned in the Upper Derwent Valley, notable features include two totally enclosed bellmouth overflows, locally named the “plug-holes,” which are made of stone.

The Reservoir was said to have been formally opened on September 25th of 1945 by King George VI and his wife, Queen Elizabeth.

The Hodron Edge Stone Circle is located above the east arm of the Ladybower Reservoir.

For the next place in England to check out, I was drawn first to what appears to be an interconnected cluster of reservoirs and suggested water transfer locations, some of them from Wales to England.

I want to see what the mechanism for that would be.

I am starting with the Farmoor Reservoir in Oxfordshire, primarily because of the “moor” sound in the name.

It was said to have been built in two stages, with the first stage having been completed in 1967, and the second in 1976.

It is near the city of Oxford on the left bank of the River Thames, and is used for fishing, dinghy sailing, and windsurfing, as well as bird-watching and walking.

This is called an an old Control Building of Farmoor Reservoir, in the northern third of it, where fishing is not allowed.

A wall divides the reservoir into the northern third, and southern two-thirds.

The Craig Goch Dam is located in the Elan Valley in Wales.

Also called the Top Dam, it is a masonry dam said to have been built between 1897 and 1904…

…and is the upper-most of the Elan Valley Reservoirs in Wales.

These reservoirs were said to have been built by the Birmingham Corporation Water Department to provide clean water for Birmingham in England’s West Midlands.

Water from the reservoirs is carried by gravity to the Frankley Reservoir in Birmingham…

…construction of which was said to have been authorized by the Birmingham Corporation Water Act of 1892, and built in 1904…

…via the Elan Aqueduct…

…construction of which was said to have started in 1896 by the Birmingham Corporation Water Department, and first opened in 1906.

From what I am seeing, there have been proposals floated to transfer water from the Craig Goch Reservoir to the River Thames amidst concerns of potential water shortages.

One of the places suggested as a water-transfer point is Culham, which is adjacent to the Farmoor Reservoir in Oxfordshire, and the location of a lock on the River Thames, cut to the north of the mainstream.

It was said to have been built by the Thames River Commission in 1809.

Something tells me there is a lot more to find in Culham, but I better not dig any more, or I will never leave and get seriously-off topic.

This a map of dams with reservoirs on rivers in Europe.

There are so many to choose from that to keep this as simple as possible, I am going to look at the three places on the map with the fewest number of dots – Poland, Sicily, and Corsica.

The largest dam in Poland is the Solina Dam, in southeastern Poland…

…near the country’s borders with Slovakia to the southeast, and Ukraine to the southwest.

We are told the first plans for a dam in the region came in 1921, but that plans were put on hold with the start of World War II.

After the war, work on a smaller dam in the region began in 1953, and the Solina Dam was said to have been constructed between 1960 and 1969, and its construction was said to have created the artificial lake, which became the reservoir.

I find the large, slightly-rounded, pyramidal shape next to the Solina Dam to be noteworthy.

In case you are wondering about that, an example of a type of pyramid with a modified, somewhat rounded-shape from the typical description of a pyramid of four triangles which meet at the top…

…is the Pyramid of Sneferu, also known as the Bent Pyramid, in the Al Giza desert, located approximately 25-miles, or 40-kilometers, south of Giza.

Well, come to find out the four or five points on Poland on the map of Europe I showed previously of places with reservoirs and dams is misleading…

… because this is the list of reservoirs and dams that comes up for Poland:

So, just a quick peak at another dam and reservoir in Poland.

This the Pilchowice Dam and Reservoir on Poland’s Bobr River.

I could find surprisingly little information about the construction of the Pilchowice Dam in an internet search, but I did find these dates attributed to when it was said to have been constructed, between 1904 and 1912…

…and its spillway on the top left looks similar to the spillway of the Robert Bourassa Dam in Quebec on the bottom right.

I am finding the same situation in Sicily that I found in Poland with regards to the number of dots showing dams and reservoirs there, in this case one dot, as I am finding more than that.

Examples include the Diga Rosamarina, a dam across the San Leonardo River, near Palermo, said to have been built in 1993.

It is located in Caccamo, a town and commune located on the Tyrrhenian Sea coast of Sicily in the metropolitan city of Palermo.

Apparently a medieval stone bridge which linked Caccamo with Palermo was submerged by Lake Rosamarina.

Here is a comparison photo between the Diga Rosamarina in Sicily on the left, and the Hoover Dam in the United States on the right, said to have been built during the Great Depression, between 1931 and 1935.

This is the Diga Ancipa, also in Sicily.

It is located near Mount Etna in the Messina Province.

This is all Wikipedia has to say about Lago dell’Ancipa, the lake that forms the Diga Ancipa’s reservoir.

…and the only reason I found the dam in the first place was because I found a reference to it in Wikimedia.

Let’s see what Corsica has to offer, an island in the Mediterranean Sea and one of France’s 18 regions.

Well, there are a lot more dams in Corsica as well than one dot would indicate.

Here is a list of dams in South Corsica…

…and the list of dams in North Corsica.

Here are some examples of what we find in South Corsica:

The Tolla Dam in the Prunelli Gorge was said to have been built between 1958 and 1960.

It is a concrete, curved gravity, and hydroelectric dam.

It impounds the Prunelli River.

There is also the L’Ospedale Dam, which supplies drinking water to the very southern part of Corsica.

Here is L’Ospedale Lake, with its submerged tree stumps…

…all part of L’Ospedale Massif…

…where we find waterfalls…

…that looks like what we see on the Hawaiian Island of Molokai…

…the island of Agattu, one of the westernmost islands in the Aleutians…

…and the Mandhab Kunda waterfall, one of the highest in Bangladesh.

There is also at least one balanced rock found at the L’Ospedale Massif, examples of which are found all over the Earth.

One more dam in southern Corsica to share is the Barrage du Rizzanese…

This is the flag of Corsica, portraying a Moor’s head.

Why exactly a Moor’s head?

Same idea with the flag of Sardinia, a region of Italy located directly south of Corsica in the Mediterranean Sea, only it has not one, but four Moors on it.

One more place I would like to take a look at before leaving Europe is the Cruquius, which someone left me a comment about regarding my last post.

The comment read “It pumped out water for the Dutch ‘Drymaking.’ I tell my Dutch fiance that it is the mudflood museum.”

That was enough for me to want to take a look into it :).

The Cruquius, which is now a museum, was an old steam-pumping station in The Netherlands, named after one of its promoters, Nicolaus Samuel Cruquius, said to have been born in 1678, who was a Dutch land surveyor, hydraulic engineer, cartographer, and astronomer, and considered one of the founders of meteorology. He died in 1754.

One of the things Nicolaus Cruquius is known for is this diagram attributed to him showing the distance of the planets to the Earth in 1732, also showing a complete lunar eclipse and a partial solar eclipse in that year.

Almost 100-years after the death of Cruquius, there were three steam-driven pump stations, one of which was named after him, built around the Harlemermeer, described as a “polder,” or low-lying piece of land reclaimed from water, located near Amsterdam.

This is said to be a map of the Haarlemmermeer before reclamation.

The lakes of the Haarlemmermeer were said to have been formed into one by successive floods, in which villages disappeared in the process, and said to have become a threat to Amsterdam.

Long story short, King William I of the Netherlands appointed a commission of inquiry, and the commission’s plan to build the three steam-driven pump stations around the Haarlemmermeer were approved, with construction commencing in 1840.

This is the first 20-years of the timeline we are given for the construction of the steam-driven-pumping system of the Haarlemmermeer, and the dates line-up around the date of 1851, the year of the Crystal Palace Exhibition, which I believe was the kick-off of a new historical timeline following digging out enough infrastructure from a deliberately-caused mud liquefaction cataclysm to re-start civilization.

The Cruquius is described as the largest Watt-design reciprocal stroke steam-engine ever built.

We are told pumping began in 1848 and the lake was dry by July 1st of 1852.

This is a topographical map of the reclaimed land of the Haarlemmermeer in 2015.

Next, on to dams and reservoirs on the continent of Africa.

The Aswan High Dam is built across the Nile River in Egypt, and is considered the world’s largest embankment dam, built between 1960 and 1970.

The building of it was seen as pivotal to Egypt’s planned industrialization after the Egyptian Revolution of 1952, also known as the Coup d’Etat, at which time King Farouk I of Egypt and Sudan…

…was overthrown by the Free Officers Movement, led by Gamal Abdel Nasser and Mohamed Naguib.

King Farouk was forced to abdicate in 1952 in favor of his infant son, Fuad II, and his son was deposed in 1953, at which time Mohamed Naguib became the first president of Egypt…

…who was only president for a year because he was forced from power by Gamal Abdel Nasser, who became the second president of Egypt in 1954.

The British were credited in history with building the Aswan Low Dam across the Nile between 1898 and 1902.

Then after the 1952 Egyptian Revolution, we are told, the priority became storing the Nile waters in Egypt for political reasons, and after a lot of diplomatic backs-and-forths between interested nations, the construction of the Aswan High Dam was said to have begun in 1960 and on July 21st of 1970 it was completed.

In 1976, the reservoir was said to have reached capacity.

Many archeological sites were submerged, while others were relocated.

One of the more interesting relocations from the Aswan High Dam flood zone that I have encountered is in Madrid in Spain.

What is described as is an ancient Egyptian temple, the Temple of Debod was dismantled at Abu Simbel due to the construction of the Aswan High Dam, and donated to Spain as a gift for helping to save it. It was consequently said to be rebuilt in the Parque del Oeste in Madrid, Spain between 1970 and 1972.

I am just wondering how a megalithic temple complex like this could have been transported. Those stones would be heavy. Arrows are pointing to what appears to be single-block stones.

I also find it noteworthy that this said re-building of an Egyptian megalithic structure would have taken place at the tail-end of Franco’s rule in Spain, which ended in 1975.

The Cahora Bassa Dam in Mozambique…

…is one of the three major dams on the Zambezi River system.

The Cahora Bassa Dam was said to have been built between 1969 and 1974, and is the largest hydroelectric power plant in Southern Africa, and the most efficient power-generating station in Mozambique.

It is jointly owned by Mozambique and Portugal, and from 1975 to 2007, 82% of the dam and lake was owned by the Portuguese, and then in 2007, Portugal sold its share down to 15%.

Mozambique was a Portuguese colony, we are told, between 1498 and 1975.

The other two major dams on the Zambezi River are the Kariba Dam, a double-curvature, concrete arch dam…

…in the Kariba Gorge of the Zambezi River basin between Zambia and Zimbabwe…

…said to have been built between 1955 and 1959, and which supplies electricity to parts of Zimbabwe, and the part of northern Zambia known as the “Copper Belt”…

…and the third major dam in the Zambezi River system is the Itezhi-Tezhi Dam and Reservoir, said to have been built between 1974 and 1977…

…on the Kafue River in west-central Zambia at the Itezhi-Tezhi Gap.

In Asia, I am just going to look at the Three Gorges Dam is over the Yangtze River at Sandouping in China’s Hubei Province.

Said to have been built between 1994 and 2003, it is considered to be the world’s largest power station in terms of installed capacity since 2012.

The total electric-generating capacity of the dam is 22,500 MW.

As I near the end of this post, I just want to close by taking a peak at some of the dams in Australia and New Zealand in the South Pacific.

There are countless dams in Australia.

Just in the Australian State of New South Wales alone, there are 2,250 dams, weirs, catchments, and barrages, and of those 135 are considered major dams.

So I am going to show you a few of the dams and reservoirs in the Snowy Mountains…

…like the Lake Eucumbene Dam…

…described as a major, gated, earthfill embankment dam, with an overflow ski-jump and bucket spillway, with two vertical-lift-gates.

Its construction was said to have started in May of 1956 and completed in May of 1958, two-years to the month later.

Its main purpose was for the generation of hydro-power, and one of the 16 major dams that comprise the Snowy Mountains Scheme, constructed between 1949 and 1974 and run by Snowy Hydro, we are told.

The largest reservoir and storage lake in the Snowy Mountains Scheme is Lake Eucumbene.

The Tooma Dam is to the west of Lake Eucumbene, and it is described as a major ungated concrete embankment dam, opened in 1961, with the main purpose of power generation, across the Tooma River, and also in the Snowy Mountains in New South Wales.

This is the spillway of the Tooma Dam.

The Tantangara Dam and Reservoir is directly to the North of Lake Eucumbene.

It is a major ungated, concrete gravity dam with a concrete chute spillway, and also part of the Snowy Mountains Scheme.

Much of the impounded headwaters of the Tantangara Reservoir are diverted to Lake Eucumbene.

There is more to share here, but this is more than enough to give you an idea of what Australia’s hydro-electric prowess looks like.

One more stop. New Zealand.

New Zealand is an island country in the southwestern Pacific Ocean, consisting of two main, large islands – North Island and South Island – and around 600 smaller islands, covering an area of 103,483-square-miles, or 268,021 kilometers-square.

I am going to be looking at dam systems around Auckland on the North Island, New Zealand’s largest city.

But first, I am going to look a little bit into the history of the Auckland region because of 1) the dates in question; and 2) the conditions that were described as being here in the historical narrative we are given, because both speak to the historical reset and the possibility of a mud flood.

In the historical narrative we are given, Auckland was first settled by Europeans in the form of the British in 1840.

With the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi in 1840 between representatives of the British Crown and 500 Maori Chieftains, we are told, Britain gained sovereignty over what became known as New Zealand.

We are also told that between the years 1848 to 1863, there was a chronic water shortage, with Auckland’s wells affected by severe pollution, to which the city council responded by digging more wells.

Then, in 1865, we are told, water was piped in from springs and ponds on the Auckland Domain Volcano, which is Auckland’s oldest park in the central suburb of Grafton.

In 1871, Auckland was promoted from Borough to city, and Seecombe’s Well provided the new city with a steady supply of water from an aquifer below Mount Eden.

Fast forward to 1946, when we are told the work commenced on the first of the Hunua Reservoirs, Cossey’s Dam and Reservoir, said to have been completed in 1955.

This is the bellmouth spillway of Cossey’s Dam, leading to a spillway tunnel discharging to a lined channel downstream of the dam.

The Cossey Dam and Reservoir was said to have provided Auckland, for the first time in years, and adequate water supply.

But, Auckland was continuing to grow!

It was decided to maximize the capacity of the Cossey Reservoir by expanding the water supply options, so in 1956 the Wairoa Tunnel from the Hunua to the Otau Valley was completed, and the Wairoa Dam was completed in 1975.

The Mangatani Dam in the Hunuas was said to have been commissioned in 1965, and is the largest of Auckland’s upland catchments.

It was said to have been constructed between 1972 and 1977.

There’s a lot more to see in New Zealand’s Auckland region, but I am going to go ahead and stop here.

Do I think all of these dams, reservoirs, and hydrological projects were actually constructed when we are told they were?

No.

Do I think they could have been brought back into functional use when are told they were?

Yes.

This is a photo I came across labelled: “City Councillors visit the Waitekere Dam in 1907.”

Was the technology that could only provide tiny, mule-drawn rail cars for the city councillors in 1907 capable of constructing the Waitakere Dam west of Auckland by 1910?

As with the rest of the world’s massive engineering projects, including canals, rail-systems of all kinds, etc, I believe these major hydrological projects were an integrated part of the infrastructure of the original ancient advanced Moorish civilization, and were used in harmony and balance with the environment for the needs of the civilization.

In my next post, I am going to be pulling all of my research together to show what we are told was happening in the world throughout the 1800s, with an emphasis on all the things that were happening in the mid-1800s.

I have always found reservoirs and dams/hydroelectric projects to be very interesting in my research, as I have found many in the process of tracking the Earth’s grid-lines.

As a matter of fact, they are go-to places for me when they surface at a place I am looking into on a particular alignment.

In this post, I am going to share with you why I find them such a noteworthy topic for investigation into the ancient advanced civilization that has been removed from our collective awareness.

I am going to start my investigation into this topic with the northern part of the Province of Quebec in Canada.

Lake Manicouagan is described as an annular, or ring, lake, covering an area of 750-square-miles, or 1,942-kilometers-squared, in Central Quebec.

Rene-Lavesseur Island in the center of the lake is classified as the world’s second-largest lake-island.

We are told that Lake Manicouagan is an impact crater formed by a meteor.

The crater is described as a multiple-ringed structure, about 60-miles, or 100-km, across, with the Manicouagan Reservoir at its 40-mile, or 70-kilometer inner ring being its most prominent feature.

We are also told the creation of the Daniel-Johnson Dam, with its construction starting in 1959, created the Manicouagan Reservoir as it presently exists, and part of the Manicouagan, or Manic, series of hydroelectric projects undertaken by Hydro-Quebec, the provincial electrical utility.

The reservoir, acting as a giant headpond for the Manicouagan River, feeds the Jean-Lesage generating system, which opened in 1967…

…and the Rene Levesque generating station, which opened in 1976…

…and is an underground hydroelectric power plant with six power-generating units.

The Wembo-Nyama Ring Structure in the Democratic Republic of the Congo is similar in appearance to Lake Manicouagan…

…and is also described as a circular meteor impact crater, which the Unia River flows around, with many tributaries, like Lake Manicouagan.

Another so-called impact crater on northern Quebec’s Ungava Peninsula in Pingualuit National Park…

…is the Pingualuit crater.

Another meteor-impact forming a perfect circle in the landscape?

Only this time, we find that Pingualuit is one of the deepest lakes in North America, said to be 876 feet, or 267 meters, deep, and holds some of the purest fresh water in the world.

Compare Pingualuit with the Bacalar Cenote Azul, on the Yucatan Peninsula, not far from Chetumal, Mexico, said to be 295-feet, or 90-meters, deep.

My understanding about the planetary grid system is that it was intentionally created in accordance with sacred geometry, and that everything on it has meaning. When I realized that both of these deep circular wells are on peninsulas, on the same alignment I was tracking off of Algeria, I was guided to connect them with Algiers on the world map.

While Algiers may not be the third point of what could be an equilateral triangle relationship in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, there does appear to be an isosceles triangle relationship, one where two sides are of equal length, between these three points.

One of the largest hydroelectric systems in the world, the James Bay Project is a series of hydroelectric power stations on the LeGrande River in northwestern Quebec.

The red-dots on the map show where the James Bay Project’s power-generating stations are located.

Not without controversy, particularly regarding First Nations’ land claims in the region, we are told that by 1986, the largest power-stations and reservoirs were mostly completed, including the Robert Bourassa Generating Station, said to have been built between 1974 and 1981…

…named for the Premier of Quebec who gave the vital political impetus to the James Bay Project.

Some interesting things to note about the Robert Bourassa Generating Station.

It uses the reservoir and dam system of the Robert Bourassa Reservoir to generate electricity… 

…It is Canada’s largest hydroelectric power station, and is the world’s largest underground power station… 

…and the spillway is near the north-end of the main dam, and part of Dyke D-4, which is part of a section of dykes known as the “Staircase of the Giants,” .and notable for the spillway flowing down a 4,900-foot, or 1,500-meter, rock-cut channel, with ten steps ranging from 30- to 40-feet, or 9.1 – to 12.2-meters, in height, and 417- to 656-feet, or 127- to 200-meters in length. 

This is said to be a circa 1907 photograph of the Shawinigan Water & Power Company, which played a major role in the history of hydroelectricity in Canada.

At the end of the 19th-century, American engineers considered the Shawinigan Falls to be among the best hydroelectric sites in North America.

One of its founders in 1898 was the American businessman John Edward Aldred, who was born in 1864…

…and a Director of the United Railways and Electric Company…

…a President of Baltimore’s Consolidated Gas, Electric Light & Power…

…the Pennsylvania Water & Power Company…

…and a Chairman of the Gillette Safety Razor Company.

Another founder of the Shawinigan Water & Power Company was Andrew Frederick Gault, an Irish-born Canadian merchant, industrialist, and philanthropist born in 1833, and known to history as the Cotton King of Canada.

Andrew Gault was born in 1833, and emigrated with his family to Montreal in 1842. His father was said to have died of cholera 9-months later, and his mother returned to Ireland.

He and his brothers stayed in Montreal, and starting in 1853, Andrew Gault entered into a partnership in wholesale textiles with a man named Stephenson, and ultimately went into partnership with his brother, Robert, forming “Gault Brothers & Company.”

Now the “Hotel Gault,” this building was said to have been the location of the “Gault Brothers & Company Store” and warehouse building, built, we are told, in 1871.

Then in the early 1870’s, he went into business with his brother, Matthew, investing in cotton textiles, and they invested in a cotton mill in Cornwall, Ontario, known as the Stormont Manufacturing Works.

Gault also had investments in beet root sugar manufacturing; silk manufacturing; woollen mill companies; the Citizens’ Gas company in Montreal; manufacturing companies; and electric light and tramway company’s.

This was Gault’s home called Rokeby on Sherbrooke Street in Montreal, circa 1885.

I am bringing up these two founders of the Shawinigan Water & Power Company to show you how wealth, power, and control of utilities and amenities was consolidated into the hands of a few individuals early on in the new historical narrative we were given, of which the official start I have come to believe was the 1851 Exhibition of the Works of All Nations, held in the Crystal Palace in London.

All of this was part of the process of re-starting the existing infrastructure of the original ancient civilization in order to create the world we are living in today, where power and control were consolidated in the hands of a few, and upon whom, like in this example, we are required to pay for things like razor blades and cotton fabric for clothing, as well as electricity and water.

The people with the money had their hands in all of the action!

The Churchill Falls Generating Station is in the Province of Labrador, and is an underground hydroelectric power station.

It is the 10th-largest in the world, and the second-largest in Canada, after the Robert-Bourassa Generating Station in Quebec.

Rather than a single large dam, the plant’s Smallwood Reservoir is contained by 88-dykes, totaling 40-miles, or 64-kilometers, in length.

The Smallwood Reservoir has a catchment area that is larger than the Republic of Ireland, at 27,000-square-miles, or 72,000-kilometers-squared, that drops over 1,000-feet, or 305-meters, to the location of the plant’s 11 turbines.

The plant’s powerhouse was hewn from solid granite, 984-feet, or 300-meters, underground.

We are told construction began in 1967, and was completed in 1974, costing almost a billion Canadian dollars to build.

We are also told that the region opened up for this kind of development because of the completion of the Quebec North Shore and Labrador Railway, said to have been built between 1951 and 1954, and owned by the Iron Ore Company of Canada (IOC).

In 1958, the IOC opened the Wabash Ore Body near Labrador City, and that one and other iron ore reserve locations were developed through the region.

A good bridge between Canada and the United States on this subject is literally and figuratively Sault Ste. Marie, also referred to as “The Soo.”

Sault Ste. Marie was one city until the border between the United States and Canada was established at the St. Mary’s River in a treaty after the War of 1812, creating Sault Ste. Marie in Michigan, and Sault Ste. Marie in Ontario, on both sides of the St. Mary’s River.

In Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, the Edison Sault Electric Company Canal, also known as the Edison Sault Power Canal, supplies the St. Mary’s Falls Hydropower Plant, an 18-MW, with capacity up to 30-MW, hydroelectric generating plant.

Made from sandstone masonry, it was said to have been built under the supervision of the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, starting in 1898, with operation starting in 1902, and is one of the oldest, continuously-operating power plants in North America. Just want to point out the doors in the middle of the building, above ground level. Seems to be an odd location for a full-size set of doors.

The water velocity of the power canal varies at times but can be up to 7-mph, or 11-kph, with the entrance being controlled by four steel headgates.

The first locks were said to have been built here in 1855, and operated by the State of Michigan until transferred to the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers in 1881, who owns and maintains and operates the St. Mary’s Falls Canal, within which the locks are located.

There are two hydroelectric powerhouses next to the Soo Locks, together generating 18.4-MW for the Soo Locks complex.

The Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge runs between the United States and Canada, which permits vehicular traffic to pass over the locks.

It is the northern terminus of I-75, which goes all the way to Miami, Florida.

The Sault Ste. Marie International Railroad bridge runs adjacent to the International Bridge, and was said to have been built in 1887. It has a vertical lift bridge and swing bridge features as well.

Really sophisticated engineering feats for the times!

Next are the St. Mary’s Falls, of which the International boundary goes through the middle.

In the right foreground of this photo, in front of the International Bridges, are what are known as the Compensating Works.

They consist of 17 piers and concrete aprons bearing on sandstone bedrock. Piers 1 – 9 are in Canada, and Piers 10 – 17 are in the United States. These were said to have been constructed between 1913 and 1919 (with World War I occurring between 1914 and 1918), and has an extremely sophisticated sluice gate and gate machinery system.

On the Ontario side of Sault Ste. Marie, is the Great Lakes Power Canal.

Great Lakes Power was established in the early 1900s by Francis H. Clergue.

He was another one of those early businessmen in on all of the action.

Francis H. Clergue was the leading industrialist of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, in the late 1800s and early 1900s.

In addition to Great Lakes Power, he established the Sault Ste. Marie Pulp and Paper Company in 1895…

…the Algoma Steel Factory, which is said to have opened in 1902, at which time the factory was said to have produced its first rail-tracks, and where it specialized in rails for Canadian Railways as its primary product for the next twenty-years, we are told.

Clergue was also credited with the development of the Algoma Central Railway, connecting it to the Transcontinental artery of Canada.

He was said to have initially owned it, and needed a way to transport logs from the Algoma District in northeastern Ontario for his pulp mill, and iron ore for the steel factory, and that it was chartered on August 11th, 1899. It was said to have been completed to Hearst, Ontario, in 1914.

This is the Algoma Central & Hudson Bay Railway Terminal Station in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, said to have been built in 1912.

Entering into the United States, I will start with several places on the West Coast.

In Washington State in the United States, the Grand Coulee High Dam was said to have been built between 1935 and 1942, during the administration of President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Keep in mind, this would have been during the middle of the Great Depression and half-way through World War II.

By its maximum capacity, it is the largest power station in the United States.

It is a concrete gravity dam on the Columbia River…

…and the centerpiece of the Columbia Basin Project, the irrigation network that the Grand Coulee Dam makes possible.

The Columbia Basin Project is the largest water reclamation project in the United States, supplying water to over 670,000 acres, or 2,700-kilometers-squared, of the 1.1 million acres, or 4,500-kilometers-squared, large project area, all of which was originally intended to be supplied.

We are told the proposal to build the dam was the focus of a bitter debate during the 1920s between two groups.

One group wanted to irrigate the ancient Grand Coulee with a gravity canal, while the other pursued a high-dam and pumping scheme.

The dam supporters were said to have won, and in August of 1934, FDR endorsed the “high dam” design.

The Grand Coulee is described as an ancient river bed.

A coulee, in the northwestern United States, is defined as a large, steep-walled, trench-like trough, which commonly are spillways and flood channels incised into the basalt plateau.

This was said to be an 1853 lithograph of the ancient Ground Coulee.

It stretches for about 60-miles, or 100-kilometers southwest from the Grand Coulee Dam to Soap Lake, being bisected by Dry Falls in to the Upper and Lower Grand Coulee, and part of the “Channeled Scablands” region of Washington State.

Dry Falls, a scalloped precipice with four major alcoves on the opposite side of the Upper Grand Coulee from the Columbia River, is described as one of the largest waterfalls ever known.

Estimates are that the falls were five times the width of Niagara Falls, with ten-times the flow of all the current rivers in the world combined…

…and which brings to my mind in appearance the King George Falls in the Kimberley region in Australia.

One of the theories about the formation of the “Channeled Scablands” from the 1920’s was that they were created by immense, but short, floods…for which the theorist, J. Harlan Bretz, had no explanation.

I can’t help but wonder what story we are not being told about this region.

The Chief Joseph Dam is further west along the Columbia River at Bridgeport, Washington, from where the Grand Coulee Dam is located…

…and is a concrete gravity dam, with construction said to have begun in 1950 and completed in 1961.

Operated by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers for the Bonneville Power Administration, it is the third-largest hydroelectric power producer in the United States.

As a run-of-the-river dam, which is not able to store large amounts of water, water flowing to the Chief Joseph Dam from the Grand Coulee Dam must be passed onto Wells Dam.

Wells Dam is a hydroelectric dam on the Columbia River, downstream from the confluence of the Okanagon, Methow, and Columbia Rivers.

It has been open and producing electricity since August of 1967.

Lake Pateros is the reservoir for the Wells Dam.

The aerial picture seen here is of Chelan, Washington, which is located on Lake Pateros.

Of particular note is the shaped shoreline seen here.

While the lake is not deep, a high-volume of water moves through it.

The John Day Dam spans the Columbia River where it forms the border between the states of Washington and Oregon.

It was said to have been built between 1968 and 1971.

It is a concrete run-of-the river dam, featuring a navigation lock and fish-ladders on both sides.

The John Day navigational lock has the highest lift, at 110-feet or 34-meters, of any lock in the United States.

Lake Umatilla was said to have been created in 1971 with the construction of the John Day Dam, and is its reservoir.

The John Day Dam is located 28-miles, or 45-kilometers, east of the city of The Dalles in Oregon, where another dam is located.

The Dalles Dam is also a concrete, run-of-the-river dam spanning the Columbia River, said to have been built by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers between 1952 and 1957.

The city of the Dalles was said to be a major Native American trading center for at least 10,000 years, and that the general area is one of North America’s most significant archeological regions.

The rising water filling The Dalles Dam submerged the Celilo Falls, and the village of Celilo, in 1957…

…the economic and cultural hub of Native Americans in the region, and said to be the oldest continuously inhabited settlement in North America.

We are told that 40 petroglyph panels were removed with jackhammers before the land was inundated with water, and placed in storage before being installed in the nearby Columbia Hills State Park in the 2000s.

I have long-suspected that the fate of Celilo was the fate of many ancient sites, and was among the first a-ha’s of this particular journey for me, when I was living in Oklahoma between 2012 and 2016.

The very first place I went to in-person to test my idea that man-made lakes covered up ancient infrastructure was Lake Thunderbird outside of Norman.  I knew what to look for, and was not surprised when I found it.

What my research is leading me to conclude now is that the hydrological-engineering technology was pre-existing too, and the “construction” was just re-started for present-day use, in the creation of a water supply, and the cover-up of ancient infrastructure.

At any rate, Lewis and Clark of westward expedition fame were said to have camped for three nights near Celilo, at the Rock Fort Campsite, described as a natural fortification, in late October of 1805.

As a matter-of-fact, the historic Granada Theater in downtown The Dalles…

…is on the Lewis and Clark Trail, and still in use as a theater today.

It was said to have been built in the Moorish Revival style, between 1929 and its opening in 1930, and is famous for having been the first theater west of the Mississippi to show a “talkie.”

Various fur trading companies were said to have become active in the region around present-day The Dalles starting around 1810, and this continued on with growth of trading networks, like that of the Hudson Bay Company, starting in the 1820s through the 1840s

This is the full Hudson Bay Company mural in The Dalles.

We are told that in 1850, the United States Army founded a small post at the site of an old mission that was here…

…and a post office established within the city’s current boundaries in 1851.

The Dalles was incorporated as a city in 1857.

A neighborhood in southeast Portland is named Mount Tabor, which is also the name given to an extinct volcanic vent, and park, located there.

Portland is said to be one of six cities in the United States to have an extinct volcano within its boundaries.

It was said to have been named after Mount Tabor in Israel, the biblical site of the Transfiguration of Jesus.

We are told that the land making up the Mount Tabor volcanic butte were identified as an ideal site for reservoirs in the 1880s due to its ideal location as a water distribution system.

The Mount Tabor reservoirs were said to have been built between 1894 and 1911.

We are told the reservoirs and their gatehouses were artistically constructed, incorporated using extensive reinforced concrete that was designed to “look like” stonework, two early patented techniques by engineer Ernest Ransome.

We are told that John Charles Olmsted, stepson and nephew of famed landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted, was in Portland in 1903 to help design the 1905 Lewis and Clark World Exposition, said to have been held to celebrate the centennial of the Lewis and Clark Expedition…

…for which all the buildings were said to have been designed for the exposition, after its site was selected in September of 1902 at Willamette Heights, which was described as a “grove of trees, of pasture, and waist-high stagnant water at the site’s center.”

…and during the time John Charles Olmsted was in Portland, he was asked to create a grand plan of parks in Portland, which would come to include in time Mt. Tabor Park.

Before I head over to the East Coast of the United States to look at noteworthy reservoirs and dams, I would be remiss if I did not stop at the Hoover Dam to take a look.

Hoover Dam is a concrete, arch-gravity dam…

…said to have been constructed between 1931 and 1935 during the Great Depression, and which caused the deaths of over a hundred workers.

We are told many of the workers on the dam had been unemployed due to the Depression, as a great number of unemployed men and their families were said to have converged on southern Nevada, creating squatters’ camps there during the time of its construction.

It is located in the Black Canyon of the Colorado River on the border between the states of Nevada and Arizona.

The Hoover Dam’s Reservoir is Lake Mead, the largest reservoir in the United States by volume when it is full.

There are two details I would like to point out about the Hoover Dam.

The first is that the timeline for Ames Shovels includes helping to build the Hoover Dam.

I am curious as to exactly where all those shovels came into play building the Hoover Dam, with all of the hard rock, water, and massive infrastructure seen here.

What were they digging?

The other thing I would like to point out is the star map at the Hoover Dam Memorial on the Nevada side of the complex…

…said to have been created by Oskar J. W. Hansen, a Norwegian-born, naturalized American citizen.

In-laid into a terrazzo floor, which consists of chips of marble, quartz, granite, glass poured together with a binder, is a star chart, said to preserve for future generations the date on which FDR dedicated Hoover Dam on September 30th of 1935.

In this celestial map, the bodies of the solar system are said to be placed so exactly that those versed in astronomy could calculate the precession of the pole star for approximately the next 14,000 years.

There is even an inlaid marking showing that Thuban was the pole star for the ancient Egyptians at the time of the Great Pyramids.

I just find all of this about the star map being inlaid into the Hoover Dam complex to memorialize the building of it for future generations to be able to tell when it was built in precessional time, which measures an approximately 26,000-year cycle of time, to be very…maybe the words I am looking for are “out-of-place.”

It just seems very strange to me to be coming from people in our relative day and age who aren’t oriented to astronomy and measuring the cycles of time…which the Ancients very much were into doing.

This is the ancient Mayan observatory at Chichen Itza.

The Ancient Ones faithfully tracked the stars over incredibly long cycles of time.

Here are some notable places I have identified from my research on the East Coast.

The first I would like to bring up is the Scituate Reservoir in Rhode Island.

The Scituate watershed and reservoir system has six tributary reservoirs, which provide the drinking water for 60% of the state’s population.

This massive public works construction project was said to have gotten underway in about 1915, and completed by 1925.

Interesting to see the low-tech-looking equipment for the project pictured here in 1921, according to the date at the bottom right…

…that we are told was being used to build this…

…this…

…and this. On top of that, World War I was happening at the beginning of that time period.

The next place I am going to take a look at is the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir in Manhattan’s Central Park, a decommissioned reservoir that was said to have been built between 1852 and 1862 (with the Civil War taking place between 1861 – 1865)…

…to receive water from the Old Croton Aqueduct.

The Old Croton Aqueduct, said to have been built between 1837 and 1842, originates in Croton in Westchester County, and is 41-miles, or 227- kilometers, long.

This is the High Bridge of the Croton Aqueduct, which crosses over the Harlem River, on its way to Central Park…

…which reminded me of the Ribblehead Viaduct in the Yorkshire Dales National Park in northern England, said to have been built for the railroad between 1869 and 1874.

How could they have accomplished these kind of engineering feats in a time period we are taught was low technology?

The Upper Roxborough Reservoir is an abandoned watershed project in northwest Philadelphia. These stately structures are described as filters of the reservoir.

It brought to mind the fort the Portuguese are said to have built on Hormuz Island after they captured the island between today’s United Arab Emirates and Iran in 1507 – the interestingly named Fort of Our Lady of the Conception (for a military fort?)…

…compared with a pedestrian underground associated with the long-gone Crystal Palace in London.

Jones Falls is described as an 18-mile, or 29 kilometer, major North-South stream that runs from the North through Baltimore City before it empties into the Inner Harbor.

This is the Lake Roland Dam and Reservoir in Baltimore County, north of Baltimore City, and said to have been built between 1854 and 1861.

The Jones Falls flow into, and out from, Lake Roland.

Lake Roland is described as having been a defunct reservoir since 1915.

They sure put an enormous amount of effort into building something that wasn’t used for very long, like not even 60 years?

I have many more examples I could bring forward in North America, but the examples I have given are more than enough to make my point about the similar, and advanced, nature of the engineering and architecture of reservoirs and hydroelectric projects in North America, as well as the anomalies and inconsistencies in the explanation we are given about them, that do not make sense within the context of our historical narrative.

In the second part of this two-part series, I am going to be looking at reservoirs and hydroelectric projects in Europe, Africa, and Asia.

The subject matter I am going to bring forward in this post is largely about, but not limited to, “The Age of Discovery,” described as the period of European history in which extensive overseas exploration occurred from the beginning of the 1400’s to the middle of the 1600’s.

Overseas exploration emerged as a powerful factor in European culture and was the beginning of globalization.

I will also be looking at the various scientific expeditions of the 1800s.

I think it is important to begin this post with some information about how concepts of space and time are viewed in the present-day versus how they were viewed in the past.

The study of geodesy is the science of accurately measuring and understanding the Earth’s shape, orientation in space, and gravitational field.

A geographic coordinate system enables every location on Earth to be specified by a set of numbers, letters and symbols.

The coordinates are often chosen such as that one of the numbers represents a vertical position, which would derive from the North-South lines of latitude on this map projection of the Earth, and the horizontal position, from the East-West lines of longitude.

We are told that in cartography, the science of map-making, a map projection is the way of flattening the globe’s surface into a plane in order to make it into a map, which requires a systematic transformation of the latitudes and longitudes of locations from the surface of the globe into locations on a plane.

This is a 1482 engraving by Johannes Schnitzer of the “Ecumene,” an ancient Greek word for the inhabited world, and used in cartography to describe a type of world map used in late antiquity and the Middle Ages.

He was said to have constructed it from the coordinates in Claudius Ptolemy’s “Geography,” an atlas, and treatise of geography, from 150 AD said to compile the geographical knowledge of the 2nd-century Roman Empire, and a revision of the now-lost atlas of Marinus of Tyre, a Phoenician cartographer and mathematician who was said to have founded mathematical geography, and who introduced improvements to the construction of maps and developed a system of nautical charts.

Longitude fixes the location of a place on Earth east or west of a North-South line of latitude called the Prime Meridian, given as an angular measurement that ranges from 0-degrees at the Prime Meridian to +180-degrees westward and -180-degrees eastward.

In 1851, Sir George Airy established the new prime meridian of the Earth, a geographical reference line at the Royal Observatory of Greenwich in London, and by 1884, over two-thirds of all ships and tonnage used it as the reference meridian on their charts and maps.

Previous to that, the great pyramid of Giza, located at the exact center of the Earth’s landmass, was the Prime Meridian.

Carl Munck deciphers a shared mathematical code in his book “The Code,” related to the Great Pyramid, in the dimensions of the architecture of sacred sites all over the Earth, one which encodes longitude & latitude of each that cross-reference other sites. 

He shows that this pyramid code is clearly sophisticated and intentional, and perfectly aligned over long-distances.

In October of 1884, the United States hosted the International Meridian Conference, attended by twenty-five countries, in order to determine the Prime Meridian for international use.

Twenty-two of the twenty-five countries in attendance voted to adopt the longitude of the Royal Observatory in Greenwich as the zero-reference line.

The International Meridian Conference was held right before the Otto von Bismarck-organized Berlin Conference, which was convened in November of 1884 and lasted until February of 1885, during which time the entire continent of Africa was carved up between the European powers.

Interestingly, in earlier maps, ley-lines were depicted, and not latitude and longitude.

The Catalan Atlas of the Majorcan Cartographic School is considered the most important map of the Medieval period in the Catalan language, dated to 1375.

I encountered another old map depicting ley-lines when I was researching for information on Fernando de Noronha, an island group just off the coast of Brazil.

The Cantino Planisphere was said to have been completed by an anonymous Portuguese cartographer some time before 1502.

A planisphere is defined as a map formed by the projection of a sphere or part of a sphere on a plane.

Were there deliberate manipulations of Space and Time introduced in the 1500s?

The following are examples of why I think there was a deliberate manipulation of how we viewed the Earth, and our perception of Space and Time.

It would seem that the Earth’s grid-lines started to disappear from maps in the 1500s, as Gerardus Mercator, a Flemish geographer, cartographer and cosmographer…

…published a world map in 1569 that is considered to be the first where sailing courses on the sphere were mapped to the plane map, allowing for a “correction of the chart to be more useful for sailors.”

Here is a close-up section of the 1569 map showing the depiction of straight ley-lines in the seas…

…but not on land and sea as were present on the flat projections of the Cantino Planisphere and the Catalan Atlas.

Not only that, Mercator was also a globe-maker, like this one from 1541.

And this is the cover of Mercator’s 1578 publication of “Tabulae Geographicae,” along with the globe, and Ptolemy said to depicted on the left, and Marinus of Tyre on the right.

Notice the difference between the lines on the globe at the top of the engraving, and the globe at the bottom, and while he is pointing down to the globe at the bottom…

…and Ptolemy is holding up a geometric shape that looks like the lines on the globe at the top on the left, which looks remarkably like the shape the sacred hoops formed in the Native American Hoop Dance on the right.

The Erdapfel, which translates from the German as “Earth apple,” was a terrestrial globe produced by Martin Baheim, a German textile merchant and cartographer, between 1490 and 1492.

This engraving of him was said to have been done in 1886.

The Erdapfel is the oldest surviving terrestrial globe.

It is a laminated linen ball, constructed in two-halves, reinforced with wood…

…and overlaid by a map painted by Georg Glockendon, pasted on a layer of parchment around the globe.

The German-English geographer and cartographer, Ernst Georg Ravenstein, who was born in Germany in 1834, but spent most of his adult life in England, wrote a book about Martin Baheim and his Erdapfel in 1908, and, as we shall see, Mr. Ravenstein’s name will come up again in more than one reference.

I have to ask the question – is all of this information telling us something about what was actually going on here to manipulate the true shape of the Earth?

Then, as far as the manipulation of our perception of time goes, only 13-years after Mercator was said to have published his world map, the Gregorian Calendar was introduced by Pope Gregory XIII in October of 1582, for the given reason of correcting the Julian calendar on stopping the drift of the calendar with respect to the equinoxes, and included the addition of leap years. 

It took 300 years to implement the calendar in the west, and nowadays used in non-western countries for civil purposes.

The Mayan calendar was involved with the harmonization and synchronization of Human Beings and the development of Human Consciousness with natural cycles of time.

The Mayan calendar consisted of several cycles, or counts, of different lengths.

The 260-day count, or Tzolkin, was combined with a 365-day solar year known as the Haab’, to form a synchronized cycle lasting for 52 Haab’, called the Calendar Round, still in use today by many Mayan groups in the highlands of Guatemala.

The Tzolkin calendar combines twenty day-names and symbols, with thirteen day numbers, which represent different-sounding tones, to produce 260 unique days.

The Mayan Long Count calendar was used to track longer periods of time.

The ancient Egyptian calendar was a solar calendar with a 365-day-year, with three seasons of 120-days each, and 5-6 epagomenal days, also known as an intercalary month, transitional days that were treated as outside of the year proper to make the calendar follow the seasons or moon phases in common years and leap years.

Now on to the main subject of this post.

The primary initiator of the earliest time period of maritime exploration in our historical narrative, known as “The Age of Discovery, was Prince Henry the Navigator, who was said to have been born in 1394.

The fourth child of the Portuguese King John I, he was a central figure in the early days of the Portuguese Empire, and in the 15th-century European maritime discoveries and maritime expansion.

The Portuguese Empire was composed of the overseas colonies and territories government by Portugal, existing from 1415 with the capture of the port of Ceuta, on the Moroccan-side of the Strait of Gibraltar…

…to the handover of Portuguese Macau to China in 1999, the last remaining dependent state in China and the final vestige of European colonialism in the region, we are told, after 442-years of Portuguese rule.

Macau is designated as an autonomous region on the south coast of China, across the Pearl River Delta from Hong Kong…

…where there is Moorish-looking architecture in Macau on the left that looks like what is found in Madrid, Spain, on the right…

…as well as Venice, Italy, in Macau.

The Venetian Resort in Macau on the left is owned by the American Las Vegas Sands Company, which was said to have opened in 2007 after the main hotel tower was completed.

For comparison, the Bell Tower of St. Mark’s Basilica in Venice, said to have been built starting in the early 10th-century, is in the middle, and the Giralda Bell Tower, acknowledged Moorish architecture said to have been first completed in 1198 AD, is on the right.

At any rate, Prince Henry the Navigator, who was involved in the capture of Ceuta, took the lead role in promoting and financing Portuguese maritime exploration until his death in 1460.

He was said to have been responsible for the early development of Portuguese exploration and maritime trade with other continents through the systematic exploration of western Africa, the islands of the Atlantic Ocean, and the search for new routes.

We are told that under Prince Henry’s direction, a new and lighter ship was developed, called the Caravel, to replace the slow and heavy ships of the time that were unsuitable for exploration.

The caravel was independent of prevailing winds, and Portuguese mariners could explore rivers and shallow waters as well as the open ocean.

Prince Henry’s father had appointed him the governor of the Algarve Province in 1419, the southernmost region of Portugal.

He was said to have gathered a school of navigators and map-makers, at his villa on the Sagres peninsula, described as a wind-swept, shelf-like promontory…

…which is the location of the Fortaleza Sagres, said to have been constructed on the orders of Prince Henry to guard the town and harbor of Sagres.

Portuguese navigators were said to have discovered and practiced the “Volta do Mar,” or “Turn of the Sea,” during Prince Henry’s time and after.

This is the dependable pattern of trade winds blowing largely from the East, near the equator, and the returning westerlies in the mid-Atlantic.

The understanding of oceanic wind patterns was a crucial step for Atlantic navigation, enabling the main trade route between the New World and Europe, and future voyages of discovery in other parts of the world, including the East Indies with the aim of finding a sea route to the source of the lucrative spice trade. More on the spice trade later in this post.

One last thing about Prince Henry.

Apparently no one used the nickname “the Navigator” during his lifetime, or in the following three centuries.

We are told the term was coined by two 19th-century German historians – Heinrich Schaefer and Gustave de Veer – and that the nickname was popularized by two British authors in the titles of their biographies of Prince Henry.

One was by Richard Henry Major in 1868…

…and the other was by Raymond Beazley in 1895.

I included this information I found because I found the nationalities of the authors of Prince Henry’s biography to be noteworthy, as well as the time-frame within which they were published, in the period of time after which, I have come believe from my research, the New World Order timeline was officially started in 1851.

Let’s see what else comes up like this.

The next Portuguese explorer to come on the scene was Bartolomeu Dias, a nobleman of the Portuguese royal household.

We are told he sailed around the southernmost tip of Africa, the Cape of Good Hope, in 1488, setting up the route from Europe to Asia later on.

He was also said to be the first European during the “Age of Discovery” to anchor at what is present-day South Africa.

Bartolomeu Dias was the sailing master of the caravel “Sao Cristovao” or “Saint Christopher.”

In 1487, he led a Portuguese exploration expedition down the west coast of Africa

Provisions were picked up on the way down at Sao Jorge de Mina, a fortress said to have been built by the Portuguese in 1482…

…on the Portuguese Gold Coast, a Portuguese colony on the West African Gold Coast, present-day Ghana, known for its gold, petroleum, sweet crude oil, and natural gas.

The Portuguese Gold Coast was the first claim.

The Dutch arrived in 1598 and in 1642, incorporated the Portuguese Territory into the Dutch Gold Coast.

This was said to be a 1675 map of the Dutch Gold Coast, depicting ley-lines instead of lines of longitude and latitude.

Then the Prussians established the Brandenburger Gold Coast in the area in 1682, for less than 50-years, when they sold it to the Dutch in 1742.

The Swedes established settlements on the Swedish Gold Coast starting in 1650, but this state-of-affairs, was said to have only last 13-years…

…because in 1663, Denmark seized the Swedish territory, and incorporated it into the Danish Gold Coast.

Then in 1850, all of the settlements became part of the British Gold Coast…

…which remained in British hands in 1885 after the Berlin Conference.

In the 1487 expedition of Bartolomeu Dias, after the caravel left the Portuguese Gold Coast, the crew sailed to Walvis Bay, the name of the location in modern Namibia.

After encountering violent storms along the way, the ship eventually rounded the Cape of Good Hope, the name it received from King John II of Portugal because it represented an opening of a route to the East.

The expedition ended up not going any further, and set sail back for Portugal, returning to Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, in 1488.

Not only did I find the German-English geographer and cartographer, Ernst Georg Ravenstein, come up  in association with a biography of Bartolomeu Dias…

… he also published “A Journal of the First Voyage of Vasco Da Gama” in 1898, the next Portuguese explorer of note, who made it to India in a journey between 1497 and 1499.

Ravenstein was said to have translated what was called the only known copy of a journal believed to have been written on-board ship during Vasco da Gama’s voyage to India.

We are told that Vasco da Gama’s first voyage to India was the first link to Europe and Asia by an ocean route.

He was said to have landed in Calicut on May 20th of 1498.

This is said to be a steel engraving from the 1850s of the meeting between the King of Calicut and Vasco da Gama, which apparently didn’t yield the favorable results the Portuguese explorer desired, as it failed to yield the commercial treaty with Calicut that was da Gama’s principal mission.

Regardless of the failure to secure a commercial treaty with the King of Calicut, Vasco da Gama’s voyage to and from India led to the yearly Portuguese India Armadas, fleets of ships organized by the King of Portugal dispatched on an annual basis from Portugal to India…

…and 6-years after da Gama’s initial arrival in 1498, the Portuguese State of India was founded.

Portugal’s unopposed access to the Indian spice trade routes boosted the economy of its empire, and maintained a commercial monopoly on spice commodities for several decades.

Vasco da Gama’s discovery of the sea route to India, we are told, is what enabled the Portuguese to establish a long-lasting colonial empire in Asia.

It was considered a milestone in world history and the beginning of a sea-based phase of global multiculturalism.

The Treaty of Tordesillas of 1494 divided the newly discovered lands outside Europe between the Portuguese Empire and the Spanish Empire (Crown of Castile), a long a meridian 370 leagues west of the Cape Verde Islands, off the West Coast of Africa.

Then, 35-years later, the Treaty of Zaragoza was signed, which specified the Antimeridian to the line of demarcation specified by the Treaty of Tordesillas, defining the areas of Spanish and Portuguese influence in Asia.

Pedro Alvares Cabral, a Portuguese nobleman, military commander, navigator and explorer, was a contemporary of Vasco da Gama.

He was said to have led a fleet of thirteen ships into western Atlantic Ocean, and made landfall in what we know as Brazil in 1500.

As the new land was in the Portuguese sphere according to the 1494 Treaty of Tordesillas, Cabral claimed it for the Portuguese Crown.

He explored the coast, and realized, we are told, that the large land-mass was most likely a continent, and dispatched a ship to notify the Portuguese King, Manuel I of the new territory.

The land Cabral had claimed for Portugal later became known as Brazil on the continent of South America.

From Brazil, Cabral turned his fleet eastward to sail to India.

He was said to have lost seven of his thirteen ships in a storm in the southern Atlantic Ocean.

The remains of Cabral’s fleet regrouped in the Mozambique Channel, located beween the East African country of Mozambique and the island of Madagascar.

Mozambique had become a Portuguese colony in 1498 as a result of Vasco da Gama’s first voyage, and is known for what is described as its Portuguese colonial architecture.

Here are some examples from Maputo, the capital of Mozambique.

We accept the idea that the colonial Portuguese built infrastructure like this because it is what we have been taught…

…and at the same time we are told that the indigenous people of Mozambique were the San, who were hunter-gatherers.

The San, also known as bushmen, are considered the oldest inhabitants of southern Africa, with a history there said to date back 20,000-years, and are among the oldest peoples in the world.

From the Mozambique Channel, Cabral’s fleet sailed to to Calicut in India, at which time Cabral was said to have been attacked by Hindus and Muslims stirred up by Arab traders who saw the Portuguese venture as a threat to their monopoly.

Cabral was said to have retaliated, with his men looting and burning the Arab fleet at Calicut, and he sailed onto the Kingdom of Cochin, befriended its ruler, founded the first European settlement in India at Kochi, and loaded his ships with coveted spices before returning to Portugal.

After his return, Cabral’s voyage was deemed a success, in spite of the loss of ships and lives, and we are told the extraordinary profits resulting from the sale of the spices he brought back with him helped lay the foundation of the Portuguese Empire.

Interestingly, apparently after that, Cabral slipped into obscurity for 300 years, until the 1840s that is, when the Brazilian Emperor Dom Pedro II…

…sponsored research and publications dealing with Cabral’s life and expedition through the Brazilian Historical and Geographic Institute, which was founded in 1838, and part of the emperor’s plan to foster and strengthen a sense of nationalism among Brazil’s diverse citizenry.

The Spanish explorer, governor, and conquistador, Vasco Nunez de Balboa, is best known for crossing the Isthmus of Panama to the Pacific Ocean in 1513, becoming the first European expedition to have seen the Pacific from the New World.

Wait a minute!

There was already a viable waterway across the Isthmus of Panama?

What was the Panama Canal all about then?

The Panama Canal was said to have been built, starting with the French in 1881…

…and completed and opened by the Americans on August 15th of 1914, about two weeks after the start of World War I on July 28th of 1914.

Ferdinand Magellen was a Portuguese explorer who organized the Spanish expedition, which started in 1519 and ended in 1522, to the Spanish East Indies, a fleet known as the “Armada de Molucca” to reach the Spice Islands, and said to have resulted in the first circumnavigation of the earth.

Magellan was said to have been killed in the Philippines in the Battle of Mactan on April 27th of 1521, and a Basque-Spanish explorer by the name of Juan Sebastian de Elcano was said to have completed the expedition after Magellan’s death, from the Moluccas and back to Spain.

I found a biography about Magellan written by an Austrian novelist, playwright, journalist and biographer named Stefan Zweig, who was born in Vienna in 1881, and died, along with his wife, in Petropolis, Brazil in 1942, of barbituate overdoses, we are told.

Petropolis is the name of a German-colonized mountain town 42-miles, or 68-kilometers, north of Rio de Janeiro.

Called the “Imperial City,” the Emperor Pedro II was said to issue an imperial decree ordering the construction of a settlement to be formed, with the arrival of German immigrants, as well as for the construction of his summer palace there, with the cornerstone said to have been laid in 1845, and that it was built by 1847.

Interesting edifice, and intriguing blue glow of its steeple, in Petropolis.

The first cinema was said to have opened in Petropolis in 1897, showing the Lumiere Brothers first films.

The Lumiere Brothers premiered ten short films in Paris on December 28th, 1895, considered the breakthrough of projected cinematography, meaning pertaining to the art or technique of motion picture photography.

More on the role of movies in the creation of the New World from the Old World later in my conclusions.

Back to the Moluccas.

The Moluccas that Juan Sebastian de Elcano reached and sailed back to Spain from are also known as the Spice Islands, because of the nutmeg, spice, and cloves that were exclusively found there, the presence of which sparked extreme colonial interest from Europe in the 16th-century.

So much so, that the Dutch-Portuguese War between 1601 and 1663 was also known as the Spice War, the commodity at the center of the conflict.

On March 20, 1602, Dutch East India Company was chartered to trade with India and Southeast Asian countries when the Dutch government granted it a 21-year monopoly for the Dutch spice trade.  It was an early  multinational corporation that existed until 1799.

Beginning in 1602, the conflict was said to have primarily involved the Dutch companies invading Portuguese colonies in the Americas, Africa, India, and the Far East.

The Dutch West India Company was formed on June 3rd of 1621.

It was a chartered company of Dutch merchants as well as foreign investors, with a charter for a trade monopoly in the West Indies.

A charter is a legal document that formally establishes a corporate entity, and stipulates its business purpose.

The Dutch-Portuguese War was said to have served as a way for the Dutch to gain an overseas empire and control trade at the cost of the Portuguese.

The outcome was that Portugal successfully repelled Dutch attempts to secure Brazil and Angola.

The Dutch were the victors in capturing the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa; the East Indias except for Macau; the Malacca in Malaysia; Ceylon (which later became Sri Lanka); the Malabar Coast on India’s west coast where Portuguese India was located; and the Moluccas.

British ambitions benefited from this long-standing rivalry between the Portuguese and the Dutch, beginning in the late 18th-century and early 19th-century, as Malacca, Ceylon, and Malabar became British possessions.

Other notable explorers from the first “Age of Discovery” include:

Giovanni da Verrazzano was said to be a Florentine explorer, in the service of the French King Francis I, and being the credited with first European to explore the Atlantic Coast of North America between Florida and New Brunswick between 1523 and 1524.

This included New York Bay, where the Verrazzano Narrows and bridge forever enshrines his memory, with Fort Hamilton on the Brooklyn side…

…and Fort Wadsworth on the Staten Island side.

He also explored Rhode Island’s Narragansett Bay in 1524…

…and he even gave Rhode Island its name, we are told, when he was said to have likened an island near the mouth of Narragansett Bay to the Island of Rhodes.

Now…what would make him think that…if there wasn’t anything here?

The island of Rhodes is the largest of the Dodecanese Islands in the Aegean Sea pictured here.

This is the City Gate of the Island of Rhodes.

What kinds of things do we find in Rhode Island?

Well, for one, the Narragansett Twin Towers, what is said to be the remnant of the Narraganset Pier Casino said to have been built in the 1880’s.

…and for another at Waterplace Park in downtown Providence, there is the presence of megalithic masonry.

The park was said to have been finished in 1994.

The meaning of megalith is a large stone used in construction, typically associated with Peru and Egypt, but actually found everywhere around the world. Here is another megalithic wall at Waterplace Park.

The Narragansetts are an Algonquin people whose land is now Rhode Island. Here is an historic photo of the Narragansett.

We are told that the book “Verrazano’s Voyage Along the Atlantic Coast of North America, 1524,” was reproduced from an original artifact that was written by Giovanni da Verrazzano himself.

It was published in 1916, with an introduction by Edward Hagaman Hall, a New York State historian who was born in 1858 and died in 1936.

Edward Hagaman Hall also published a book about Jamestown, Virginia in 1902.

What I remember about Jamestown, which I visited with my parents when I was 6-years-old on a trip to Williamsburg in 1969, is that it was supposed to have looked something like this…

…and that when the colonial capital was moved to Williamsburg in 1699, Jamestown was said to have ceased to exist as a settlement.

These brick masonry ruins are in Jamestown…

…even though the attention of tourists is drawn to the living history museum there.

It is interesting to note that when I was doing research on Expositions and World Fairs awhile back, I came across the 1907 Jamestown Exposition, said to have commemorated the 300th-anniversary of the founding of Jamestown in the Virginia Colony.

It was held on Sewell’s Point at Hampton Roads in Norfolk, Virginia.

…which is Norfolk Naval Base today.

Henry Hudson was said to have been an English navigator and explorer during the early 17th-century, best known for his explorations of parts of the northeastern United States and Canada.

Between 1607 and 1611, he was engaged by various trading companies to sail to the Far North to find another way to Asia, via either the Northeast Passage or Northwest Passage.

In 1609, Henry Hudson was chosen by Dutch East India Company merchants to find an easterly passage to Asia.

His attempts to go in an eastward direction were said to have been blocked by ice in northern Norway, so he decided to go west and find a northerly passage through North America.

His ship, the Half Moon, travelled down the coast…

…from LaHave in Nova Scotia; to Cape Cod; to the Chesapeake Bay; to Delaware Bay; then New York Bay…

…and the river which bears his name, New York’s Hudson River.

His voyage was said to have been used to establish Dutch claims to the region, and to the fur trade that prospered there when a trading post was established at Albany in 1614, and with New Amsterdam on Manhattan island becoming the capital of New Netherland in 1625.

Then Henry Hudson received backing from the Virginia Company and British East India Company in 1610, and sailed north to Iceland and Greenland in his new ship, the “Discovery,” and then across the Labrador Sea to what is now the Hudson Strait at the northern tip of Labrador, and through when he entered the Hudson Bay.

Hudson met his death in the James Bay region of the Hudson Bay, when his crew mutinied, and sent him, his son, and 7 crew members adrift in a small boat with limited supplies.

Did Henry Hudson happen to have anything thing published about him in the late 19th-century, early 20th-century?

I found this 1909 publication about Henry Hudson by Thomas Allibone Janvier, described as an American story-writer and historian, who was born in 1849 and died in 1913.

John Harrison was a carpenter and clock-maker who was said to have invented the marine chronometer, a device which solved the problem of calculating longitude while at sea.

The problem of solving longitude was considered so important after a naval disaster in 1707, that the British Parliament passed the 1714 “Longitude Act,” offering a financial reward.

Harrison presented his first design, H1, to the Longitude Board in 1730.

He received the support of the Longitude Board in building and testing his designs.

The second chronometer, H2, was said to have been finished in 1741.

Number 3, H3 was completed, we are told, in 1757…

…and that he produced the marine chronometer that won the Longitude Act prize in 1579, H4, also called the “sea watch.”

I have to wonder about this now, as I have found also found that winners of architecture contests, like Cuthbert Broderick for one example, a 29-year-old architect who was said to have won a design contest in 1852 for the…

…Leeds Town Hall, said to have been opened by Queen Victoria in 1858.

And, according to this picture of what is called the ruins of a “sugar mill” in Belize, someone knew a thing or two about gears a very long time ago.

A new era of scientific maritime exploration commenced in the 1800s.

in August of 1822, Jules Dumont d’Urville set out on an expedition to collect scientific and strategic information, on a ship named originally La Coquille, and sailed to the Falkland Islands; the coasts of Peru and Chile in South America; New Guinea; New Zealand and Australia.

The expedition carried out research in the fields of botany and insects, bringing back thousands of specimens to the Natural History Museum in Paris.

Then, 1826, Dumont d’Urville departed on La Coquille, now called L’Astrolabe, or the Astrolabe, named for a navigational device…

…for a three-year voyage to New Zealand; Fiji; the Loyalty Islands; New Guinea; the Solomon Islands, Caroline Islands, and the Moluccas in eastern Indonesia.

In 1837, Dumont d’Urville set out yet again on the Astrolabe for the South Orkney Islands in the Southern Ocean; the Marquesas Islands; Tasmania; along the coast of Antarctica, at which time he claimed land on January 21st of 1840 for France, considered it his most significant achievement. He named it Adelie Land after his wife Adele.

He then sailed onto New Zealand; the Torres Strait; Reunion Island; and St. Helena island, and returning to France later in 1840.

He was promoted to Rear Admiral upon his return, and he wrote a report of the expedition entitled “Voyage au Pole Sud et dans L’Oceanie sur les Corvettes Astrolabe et la Zelee 1837 – 1840,” which was published between 1841 and 1854 in 24 volumes.

An interesting side-note about Dumont d’Urville’s life was his death – he and his entire family were killed in the first ever rail disaster in France in May of 1842, called the Versailles Rail Accident, in which the train’s locomotive derailed, the wagons rolled, and the coal tender ended up at the front of the train and caught fire. This was said to be a painting of the incident.

The U. S. Exploring Expedition was another exploring and surveying expedition of the Pacific Ocean and the surrounding lands, conducted by the United States between 1838 and 1842.

The expedition was described as of major importance to the growth of science in the United States, and that during the events of its occurrence, armed conflict between Pacific Islanders and the expedition was common, and dozens of natives were killed, as well as a few Americans.

It involved a squadron of four ships, with specialists on each including naturalists, botanists, a mineralogist, a taxidermist, and a philologist, which is someone who studies written and oral histories.

It is sometimes referred to as the “U. S. Ex. Ex.” or “Wilkes Expedition,” after the commanding officer, Navy Lt. Charles Wilkes.

The ships of the Wilkes Expedition was said to have departed from Hampton Roads in Virginia for the first stop the Madeira Islands off the coast of Africa on August 18th, 1838.

The routes of the expedition went something like this – all over the place.

The squadron of ships pretty much sailed together, at different rates of speed, from their first stop at Madeira, to Rio de Janeiro in Brazil; Tierra del Fuego at the southern tip of South America; Valparaiso in Chile; Callao in Peru; the islands of Tahiti, and Samoa, in the South Pacific; Sydney in Australia; Antarctica, which they arrived at and “discovered” on January 16th of 1840, just mere days before the completely different expedition of Dumont d’Urville’s claimed land on Antarctica on January 21st of 1840; and then, by way of Fiji, to the Sandwich Islands (otherwise known as the Hawaiian Islands), before returning to the United States. The ships did break-off into pairs on occasion to explore different places in the same general location.

Then there were the voyages of the HMS Beagle, originally a Cherokee class 10-gun boat of the British Royal Navy, said to have set off from the Royal Dockland of Woolwich at the River Thames on May 11th of 1820.

The HMS Beagle’s first voyage was between 1826 and 1830, accompanying the larger ship, HMS Adventure, on a hydrologic survey of Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, under the overall command of the Australian Navy Captain, Phillip Parker King.

The second voyage of the HMS Beagle, between 1831 and 1832, was joined by naturalist Charles Darwin, on a second trip to South America, and then around the world.

Charles Darwin kept a diary of his experiences, and rewrote this as a book titled “Journal and Remarks,” becoming published in 1839 as “The Voyage of the Beagle.”

It was in “The Voyage of the Beagle” that Darwin developed his theories of evolution through common descent and natural selection.

The third voyage of the HMS Beagle took place between 1837 and 1843, and was a third surveying voyage to Australia, stopping on the way at Tenerife in the Canary Islands; Salvador on the coast of Brazil in Bahia State; and Cape Town in South Africa. I have found all three of these places on planetary grid alignments.

In Australia, the crew surveyed Western Australia, starting in what is now Perth, to the Fitzroy River; then both shores of the Bass Strait in Australia’s southeast corner; then north to the shores of the Arafura Sea, across from Timor. Again, all of these places figure prominently on grid alignments.

In 1845, the HMS Beagle was refitted as a Coast Guard watch vessel in Essex, in the navigable waters beyond the Thames Estuary, moored in the middle of the River Roach, until oyster companies and traders petitioned to have it removed in 1851, citing the vessel was obstructing the river and its oyster beds.

The Navy List shows that on May 25th of 1851, the Beagle was renamed “Southend ‘W.V. No. 7′” at Paglesham, and sold in 1870 to be broken-up.

All of my conclusions are the result of information from many different sources, plus what I am seeing with my own eyes in following the planetary alignments – that the infrastructure of the world was built by the same advanced civilization up until relatively recently, and that the very positive timeline of Humanity is missing from the collective memory.

I can’t definitively prove what I am saying in that you can’t go to a book and look it up.   However, awareness of this information has come up for me synchronistically and intuitively, and I can definitely give you the information which forms the basis for my beliefs.

I have come to the conclusion that beings with a negative agenda for Humanity  knocked Humanity off the positive Moorish Timeline in order to control Humanity, using Humans in wars against each other, the Creator and Creation. 

I think there is more than one group of negative beings involved in this, including fallen angels.

I think they hijacked the timeline by deliberately creating what I believe to have been a worldwide cataclysm, known as the mud flood, by creating a 3D-time-loop between 1492 and 1942, with 1717 as the midpoint year.

When I started to research the years around 1717 and 1942, this is what I found.

King George I of the German House of Hanover became King of Great Britain and Ireland in 1714.

This marked the end of the rule of the House of Stuart, which originated in Scotland.

On January 4th, 1717, Great Britain, France, and the Dutch Republic sign the Triple Alliance in an attempt to maintain the Treaty of Utrecht, which was signed in April of 1713, in which in order to become King  of Spain, Philip had to  renounce his concurrent claim to the French throne.

This prevented the thrones of Spain and France from merging together, and ultimately paved the way for the maritime, commercial, and financial supremacy of Great Britain.

In February of 1717, James Francis Edward Stuart of the House of Stuart, called the Pretender, who at one time was claimant to the throne, left where he was living in France, after the Triple Alliance was signed in January, to seek exile with Pope Clement XI in Rome – why he went specifically there, I don’t know, but he died in Rome in 1766.

While most portraits on-line are of a white person, this is believed to be a portrait of James Francis Edward Stuart that was painted when he lived in France.

On June 24th, 1717, the Premier Grand Lodge of England – the first Free-Mason Grand Lodge – was founded in London. 

I find it highly significant that this event shows up at the exact mid-point year between 1492 and 1942.

And then on 7/17/1717 – an interesting date from a numerological perspective – the premier of George Frideric Handel’s “Water Music” took place for King George I on a barge on the Thames.  Eyes are now on Handel.

In 1727, George Frideric Handel became a British citizen.

I was guided through a psychic friend to look at Ireland in 1742.

So I searched for it on the internet, and only two things came up.

The first was that Dublin, Ireland, was the location for the premier of Georg Frideric Handel’s Messiah on April 13th, 1742.

The second is that between 1740 – 1741, there was an extraordinary weather event in Ireland involving extreme cold.

There is a book out about it entitled “Arctic Ireland.”

During this time in Ireland,  there was an almost two-year period of extremely cold, enduring weather in Ireland.  The cause is not known and this information is in the historical record, but kept pretty much out of sight.

What if the explanation for it involves a disruption in the fabric of space-time?

So far, during this time period around 1717, we find the new British monarch coming from Germany; the Stuart heir in exiled in Rome; and Handel shows up on the scene from Germany premiering on a numerological date and again right after an extremely severe anomalous weather event in Ireland.

So, who else shows up during this time period?

Well, for one, in 1744 Mayer Amschel Rothschild was born in Frankfurt, Germany.  He established his banking business there in the 1760s, which became the start of an international banking family.

His third-born son, Nathan Mayer Rothschild, was sent to England in 1798, and after becoming a citizen, established a bank in the City of London in 1804.

Then on February 6, 1748, Bavarian Order of the Illuminati founder Adam Weishaupt was born in Ingolstadt, Germany. 

He went to a Jesuit school at the age  of 7.  

He was initiated into Freemasonry in 1777.

In 1839, John D. Rockefeller, Sr. was born in the United States, the progenitor of the wealthy Rockefeller family and considered to be the wealthiest American of all time.

So fast forward to the time period of November 20th to November 30th, 1910.  A meeting took place at Jekyll Island off the coast of the State of Georgia to lay the foundations for the Federal Reserve.

On April 15th, 1912, the Titanic sank.  All the bankers opposed to the creation of the Federal Reserve were on-board, including John Jacob Astor IV, one of the richest people in the world at the time.

Then on December 23rd, 1913, the Federal Reserve Act Passed Congress, signed into law by Woodrow Wilson.  It created and established the Federal Reserve System, and created the authority to issue Federal Reserve Notes (commonly known as the US dollar) as legal tender.

World War I started on July 28th, 1914, and ended on November 11th, 1918. 

It was one of the largest wars in history, with 70 million military personnel mobilized, and of that number, 60 million were Europeans. 

An estimated 9 million combatants died as a direct result of the war, and 7 million civilians. 

And many more died as an indirect consequence of this war.

On July 17, 1917, the reigning royal house of the United Kingdom and its Commonwealth, the House of Windsor, was founded after the death of Queen Victoria. 

There’s that 17 showing up again. 

It is also of German paternal descent.

World War II started on September 1st in 1939, and ended on September 2nd in 1945 – exactly six years later.  It is considered the deadliest conflict in human history.

Almost halfway through World War II, on July 22nd, 1942, the strange Philadelphia experiment took place at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard. 

These next slides give an overview of the experiment.

Did the USS Eldridge just become invisible?  Or did it go somewhere else?  And if it went somewhere else, where might it have gone?

Was the USS Eldridge somehow transported back to the time of the Great Frost of Ireland in 1740 and 1741 , creating a rip in the fabric of space-time?

If this was actually the case, it would have taken the beings involved in the cataclysm a little over 100-years to dig enough of the original infrastructure out of the mud flow to re-start civilization and create the new, false historical narrative superimposed onto this infrastructure.

There is plenty of underground infrastructure around the world where people could have lived until the Earth’s surface became habitable once-again.

I believe the official kick-off of the New World Order timeline was “The Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations” in 1851, in the Crystal Palace in London, the first in a series of World’s Fairs, exhibitions of culture and industry that became popular in the 19th-century…

…and I think subsequent Exhibitions, Expositions, and World Fairs, for the next 100 years, were showcasing the technology and architectural wonders of the original civilization before being hidden away or forever destroyed.

So, how did the new historical narrative get inside our heads?

The following screenshots are from a page entitled “The Origin of Compulsory Education” on Foster Gamble’s Thrive website. As I recall, it was from his movie “Thrive” that I first learned that the Rockefellers were the originators of the American Educational System.

When John D. Rockefeller established the General Education Board, it says the interest was in organizing children, and creating reliable, predictable, and obedient citizens, and not in producing critical thinkers.

Massachussetts passed the First Mandatory Attendance Law in 1852, which lines up with what I believe was the beginning of the new historical timeline.

This brings me to the example of a writer and a book that has been in the high school English curriculum in the United States seemingly forever.

Jack London was born in San Francisco on January 12th, 1876. We are told he was one of the first writers to have worldwide fame, and great financial success.

One of his most famous novels is “Call of the Wild.”

It was first published in serialized form in the Saturday Evening Post in 1903.

Basically the story-line of “The Call of the Wild” was about a St. Bernard – Scotch shepherd mix dog named Buck…

…who was stolen from a happy life in California to be sold into service as a sled dog in Alaska, and terribly abused by most of the humans he came into contact with from there on. He ultimately became feral, and answered “The Call of the Wild” by the end of the book.

Not uplifting content at all! Very strange actually that it would have themes of animal theft and extreme animal abuse.

Why are we made to read a book with this kind of subject matter in school?

The “Call of the Wild” was even made into a movie multiple times, starting in 1935…

…and even as recently as February of this year, in 2020.

How was an ancient advanced worldwide civilization erased from our collective awareness so much so that we don’t even see the copious evidence of it in the environment around us?

Literature is a powerful tool with which to form our world view and the accompaniment of movies based on the literature we are required to read in school in, for example, the United States, this information is coming into our conscious-thought processes through different modalities, and into our subliminal processes as well.

We are thoroughly schooled in the new narrative from the moment we are born.

Somewhere along the way I learned that the Druids used the wood of the holly tree to cast spells.

Hence “Hollywood.”

I absolutely believe this name was chosen for this purpose.

In the course of my research, I also found numerous early theaters called “Orpheums,” like this one in Los Angeles, California.

Orpheus was a musician and poet in Ancient Greek legend, said to have had the ability to charm all living things, and even stones, with his music.

These are examples of the many ways we forgot who and what we were, and how the false information we have been taught in school has been reinforced.

The writer Jack London was also an advocate of socialism.

In 1908, he published the book “The Iron Heel,” which refers to the rise of an oligarchic tyranny in the United States.

An oligarchy is a form of power structure in which power rests with a small number of people.

The story-line emphasized future changes in society and politics, and not technological changes. It is called a dystopian novel, meaning characterized by mass poverty, public mistrust and suspicion, a police state or oppression.

The same themes come up in the art world.

Salvador Dali was a surrealist artist, born in Figueres, in the Catalonia region of Spain in 1904, and died there in 1989. He is best-known for his eccentricity.

Surrealism was an artistic and literary movement that started in France and Belgium in 1917, and on the surface, one of its aims, we are told, was to release the creative potential of the unconscious mind by the juxtaposition of irrational images.

Surrealism is also called one of the most influential cultural, artistic, and literary movements of the 20th-century. It impacted art, philosophy, social theory, and political thought and practice.

Beneath the surface, the founder of Surrealism, Andre Breton, was a dedicated Marxist. He got his start in the Dada movement, which was said to have developed in reaction to World War I by artists who rejected the logic, reason, and aestheticism of modern capitalist society, instead expressing nonsense, irrationality, and anti-capitalism protest in their works.

He wrote his first of four Surrealism Manifestos in 1924. The Surrealists sought to overthrow the oppressive rules of modern society by demolishing its backbone of rational thought by tapping into the “superior reality” of the subconscious mind.

The Surrealists hailed Dali’s development of the “Paranoiac-critical” surrealistic technique in the 1930s, in which the artist invokes a paranoid state, said to result in the deconstruction of the concept of identity, allowing subjectivity to become the primary aspect of the artwork.

Surrealism definitely seemed to promote mental illness and the breakdown of society!

The Book of Enoch is an ancient Hebrew text, ascribed by tradition to Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah.

The Book of Enoch contains unique material on things like the origins of demons and giants, and why some angels fell from Heaven.

The Ethiopian Orthodox Church considers the Book of Enoch to be divinely-inspired, and the most complete Book of Enoch comes from Ethiopian manuscripts…

…said to have been brought back to Europe in 1773 by the Scottish traveller James Bruce.

The Book of Enoch was said to have been excluded from the Bible by the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD.

The Georgia Guidestones, anonymously erected in 1980 in Elberton, Georgia, use positive-sounding verbiage to disguise a negative agenda towards Humanity.

“Maintain Humanity under 500,000,000…” with Earth’s current population said to currently be 7.8 billion?

Say what?!

Like the destruction of the Ancient Civilization, this is another human and social engineering process that has nothing to do with benefiting Humanity.  

Problem – Reaction – Solution:  The destabilization of Western Civilization by Socialism and radical Islam is going to be restored to order by the New World Order.  Or so they planned.

Their activities are being more and more exposed in the alternative media and the Internet.  They do destruction, death and deception well, and will say and do anything that serves their purposes, but it is getting harder and harder for them to keep their activities hidden, and high crimes within government and crimes against humanity are being exposed.

II think very soon there will be more public awareness of those of who have committed innumerable crimes being held accountable for their crimes.

In my next post, I am going to be looking at Reservoirs and Hydroelectric Power systems.

European colonialism intentionally created divides over almost the entire landmass of the earth, creating new countries from lands that were taken, as well as divisions and discords between peoples that originally existed in harmony worldwide.

It also diagrams the means by which power and control were consolidated worldwide, mostly starting out as “trading” companies that ended up being very powerful in their respective regions, and after gaining complete control, transferring power and control of the regions to their respective European empires.

This is the first part of a three-part series in which I will be providing numerous examples to illustrate how creating the New World from the Old World was accomplished.

Others means by which power and control were consolidated included partitions, wars, treaties, and conferences.

I will be providing these examples I have found in travelling the cities and places that are in alignment with each other around the Earth, and in many cases what happened involved all of these means.

I will start with trading companies.

The British East India Company held a monopoly granted to it by Queen Elizabeth I of England in 1600 between South Africa’s Cape of Good Hope and Tierra del Fuego’s Cape Horn at the southern tip of South America, until 1834 when the monopoly was lost.

East Indiaman was the general name of any sailing ship operating under charter or license to any of the East India companies of the major European trading powers of the 17th- through 19th-centuries.

The British East India Company ruled over parts of the Indian Subcontinent between 1757 and 1858, commencing after the 1757 Battle of Plassey, called a decisive victory over the Nawab of Bengal, Mir Jafar, after which time the Nawab ceded revenues to the what was called the “Company.”

Mir Jafar was considered the first dependent Nawab of Bengal of the British East India Company, and this was considered to be the start of British Imperialism in India, and a key step in the eventual British domination of vast areas there.

The British East India Company arrived in what came to be known as Madras in 1600, making it their principal settlement, and we are told, constructed Fort St. George in 1644.

The British India Company was said to have come here in order to have a port close to the Malaccan Straits, the main shipping channel between the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean, and to secure its trade lines and commercial interests in the spice trade.

It is one of the most important shipping lanes in the world.

They succeeded in their securing their goals, as the British East India Company obtained the Prince of Wales Island in the Malaccan Strait.

Prince of Wales Island is known today as Penang Island, the main constituent island of the Malaysian state of Penang.

Apparently the British East India Company was able to successfully take what they named the Prince of Wales Island from the Kedah Sultanate in 1786, which became the capital of the Straits Settlements, a group of British territories in Southeast Asia established in 1826, including Melaka and Singapore.

The Kedah Sultanate was an historical Muslim dynasty located in the Malay Peninsula, said to have dated as an independent state from 1136 AD.

Its monarchy was abolished with the formation of the Malayan Union in 1909, but restored and added to the Federation of Malaya in 1963.

The Madras Presidency, or the Presidency of Fort St. George, was an administrative subdivision of British India, and established in 1652, and of which Elihu Yale became president in 1684.

Elihu Yale was a British merchant, trader, and a President of the British East India Company settlement at Fort St. George…

…who later became a benefactor of the Collegiate School in the Colony of Connecticut, which in 1718 was renamed Yale College in his honor.

At its greatest extent, the Madras Presidency included most of southern India, including the whole of the states of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh; parts of Odisha, Kerala, and Karnataka; and the union territory of Lakshadweep, a group of islands off India’s southwestern coast.

The Madras Presidency ended with the advent of Indian independence on August 15th of 1947.

Bareilly, in northern India, was a center of the ultimately unsuccessful Indian Rebellion of 1857.

At this time a major uprising took place in northern India, which lasted between 1857 and 1859 against the rule of the British East India Company, which functioned as a sovereign power on behalf of the British Crown.

The last Mughal Emperor in India, Bahadur Shah Zafar, a devout Sufi, a mystic and practitioner of the inward dimension of Islam, was deposed by the British East India Company in 1858, and exiled to Rangoon in Burma.

Through the Government of India Act of 1858, the British Crown assumed direct control of the British East India Company-held territories in India in the form of the new British Raj…

…and in 1876, Queen Victoria assumed the title of Empress of India.

King-Emperor and Queen-Empress were the titles used by the British monarchs in India between 1876 and 1948.

The tribe of Bhil Minas inhabits all three islands on Dhebar Lake near Udaipur in India.

The Bhils, who speak a subgroup of the western zone of the Indo-Aryan languages, are one of the largest indigenous groups in India, as well as among the most economically deprived peoples of India.

This is interesting to note because they are among the oldest communities in India and were inhabitants of the ancient Indus River Valley civilization.

The Bhil Minas tribe was the ruling tribe before the Kachhawaha clan of Rajputs, otherwise known as the Mewar Kingdom, forced them to hide out in the Aravalli Hills, and they were named a criminal tribe by the British government in 1924 to keep them from regaining power over the Rajputs.

They were subsequently given protection as a Scheduled Tribe after the upliftment in 1949 of the Criminal Tribe Act, which had been enacted on October 12th of 1871.

The Criminal Tribes Act of 1871 criminalized entire communities by designating them as habitual criminals, and restrictions on their movements imposed, including men having to report to the police once per week.

A Scheduled Tribe is recognized by the Indian Constitution, have political representation, and yet they are legally totally or partially excluded from various types of services important for leading a healthy life, and altogether, the Scheduled Tribes of India make-up almost 10% of the population, and are considered India’s poorest people.

India was called the “Jewel in the Crown” of the British Empire. and its largest, and most important, overseas possession.

Much of the British Empire was built around India, in order to provide routes to, or protection for, India.

India was prosperous and rich, in spices, silk, indigo, gold, cotton, and other products and resources.

Trade with, and eventual political dominance of large parts of India, was what provided Britain with large parts of its wealth in the 1700s through 1900s.

On March 20, 1602, Dutch East India Company was chartered to trade with India and Southeast Asian countries when the Dutch government granted it a 21-year monopoly for the Dutch spice trade. 

It was a megacorporation, which is defined as a massive conglomerate (usually private) holding near-monopolistic, if not monopolistic, control over multiple markets.

It was chartered to trade with Mughal India, and primarily Mughal Bengal, from where 50% of textiles and 80% of silks were imported.

It has often been labelled a trading or shipping company, but was in fact a proto-conglomerate, diversifying into multiple commercial and industrial activities, such as international trade, ship-building, production and trade of East Indian spices, Indonesian coffee, Formosan (Taiwan) sugar-cane, and South African wine.

The first formally listed public company by widely issuing shares of stock and bonds to the general public in the early 1600s, it was the world’s most valuable company of all-time, with a worth of $7.9-trillion.

It is considered by many to be to have been the forerunner of modern corporations.

I have encountered the Dutch East India Company in tracking earth’s alignments in places like Tristan da Cunha by a Dutch East Indiaman ship in February of 1643, a small island favorably located on the world’s historic shipping lanes between the West and the East, and the Dutch made four more stops there in the next 25-years, making the first rough charts of the islands in 1656.

Tristan da Cunha is on an alignment that goes through Sri Lanka and India, an in the present-day is considered a constituent part of the British Overseas Territory of the South Atlantic.

The islands of Tristan da Cunha were annexed by the United Kingdom in 1816, making them a dependency of the Cape Colony in South Africa, for the stated reasons of preventing the islands’ use as a base for any attempt to free Napoleon Bonaparte from his prison on St. Helena, and for preventing the United States from using the islands as a base for naval cruisers.

While possession was abandoned by the United Kingdom in 1817, a garrison of British marines stayed and formed the nucleus of a permanent population, which gradually grew, and was once a stopping point for lengthy sea voyages until the time of the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869.

I also found the Dutch East India Company in Cape Town, South Africa, established the first European settlement in South Africa there in 1652, called the VOC Cape Colony.

In 1814, it became the British Cape Colony, as it was ceded to the British Crown by the Netherlands after the British successfully invaded and took-over everything from the Dutch starting in 1806.

South Africa is the world’s leading producer of copper, platinum, uranium, and vanadium.

I found the Dutch East India Company in other places, and will be talking about more examples in with regards to colonization in Part 2.

These were two major players of a number of so-called trading companies during that era. Others included:

The French East India Company founded in 1661 to compete with first the British, and later the Dutch East India Companies, in the East Indies, the term given to the lands of South and Southeast Asia.

It was chartered by King Louis XIV for the purpose of trading in the Eastern Hemisphere, and was abolished in 1769 because it was said to have not been able to maintain itself financially.

The Swedish South Company was founded in 1626 to support trade between Sweden and its colony New Sweden.

The company established a settlement at Fort Christina, named after Queen Christina of Sweden, and is present-day Wilmington, Delaware.

Said to have been built in 1638, the first Swedish settlement in North America, and the principal settlement of the New Sweden Colony.

The activities of the Swedish South Company were finally dissolved in 1680, after New Sweden was annexed by New Netherland in 1655.

The Hudson Bay Company was granted a permanent charter by King Charles II of England on May 2nd, 1670, conferred two things on a group of French explorers:  1)  A trading monopoly with London merchants over the lucrative North American fur trade; and 2)  Gave them effective control over the vast region surrounding the Hudson Bay in Canada.

It is still in operation today as a Canadian retail business group operating department stores in several countries.

The British Northwest Company, a fur-trading business based out of Montreal in Quebec from 1779 to 1821, built their inland headquarters at Grand Portage in Minnesota in 1785, and was active there until 1802.

Grand Portage, along with Fort Niagara, Fort Detroit, and Michilimackinac in the Straits of Mackinac in Michigan, were the four main fur-trading centers of the British Empire in North America.

The Royal Company of the Philippines was established by the royal decree of King Charles III of Spain, and had a monopoly on the trading industry between Spain and the Philippines, and to exploit the natural resources of the islands.

It also opened a large access to goods from the Orient that were imported into the Philippines.

The next subject I would like to introduce is that of “Partition,” and what that actually looked like in real life.

Partition is defined as a change of political borders cutting through at least one territory considered a homeland by some community.

Here are some examples I encountered, all of them along the same alignment I was tracking.

Another one of three presidencies of British India within the British Empire was the Bengal Presidency, which was formed following the dissolution of Mughal Bengal in 1757.

The Bengal Presidency was the economic, cultural, and educational hub of the British Raj, and its governor was concurrently the Viceroy of India for many years.

In 1905, Bengal Proper was partitioned, separating largely Muslim areas eastern areas from largely western Hindu areas.

In 1912, British India was reorganized and the Bengal Presidency was reunited with a single Bengali-speaking province.

Could this first partitioning of Bengal have been a human- and social-engineering project, and a practice run for the 1947 Boundary partition of India, where Bengal – primarily in the form of Bangladesh – and India, into West Pakistan and East Pakistan?

The 1947 Boundary Partition divided what was British India into two independent dominion states – the Union of India and the Dominion of Pakistan. Today they are called the Republic of India and the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

It involved the division of two provinces – Punjab and Bengal – based on district-wise non-Muslim or Muslim majorities, and resulted in the dissolution of the British Raj.

The Partition of India in 1947 divided British India into the Union of India and the Dominion of Pakistan along religious lines, displacing 10 – 12 million people and creating overwhelming refugee crises in the newly constituted dominions, as well as large-scale violence. This created the conditions for suspicion and hostility between these two countries into the present-day.

After India gained independence in 1947, the Nizam of Hyderabad, Mir Osman Ali Khan, the world’s richest man of his time, declared his intention to remain independent rather than become part of the Indian Union.

The Hyderabad State Congress began to agitate against him, with the support of the Indian National Congress and Communist Party of India, and in 1948, the Indian Army invaded Hyderabad, and he ended up surrendering to the Indian Union, signing a instrument of Accession which made him a Princely Governor of Hyderabad until October 31st of 1956.

Then on November 1st of 1956, Hyderabad was split into three parts, and merged into neighboring states. Eventually, the Telengana State, of which Hyderabad is the capital, was formed on June 2nd of 2014.

The Pashtuns are the primary inhabitants of a region in Pakistan and in Afghanistan, in a region regarded as Pashtunistan, split between two countries since the Durand Line border between the two countries was formed in 1893 after the second Anglo-Afghan War.

The name sake of the line, Sir Henry Mortimer Durand, was a British Diplomat and Civil Servant of the British Raj. We are told that together with the Afghan Emir, Abdur Rahman Khan, it was established to “fix the limit of their respective spheres of influence and improve diplomatic relations and trade.”

Well, that certainly sounds good…but what was really going on here?

The Durand Line cuts through the Pashtunistan and Balochistan regions, politically dividing ethnic Pashtuns and Baloch, who live on both sides of the border.

What was the actual purpose of dividing a people in this fashion?

The Pashtun are a tribal nation of millions of Afghani and Pakistani Muslims who also have a strong oral tradition that they are descendants of lost ten Tribes of Israel, and they refer to themselves as Bani Israel. 

Here is an example of a Pashtun textile piece showing the sacred geometric shape of a star tetrahedron in the center, also known as the Star of David…

…and a recognizable symbol of what is called Judaism today, as seen on the flag of Israel.

On the same alignment that I found the Pashtun, I found Khorasan, a province in northeastern Iran from 1906 to 2004, but historically referred to a much larger area comprising the east and northeast of the Persian Empire, including, besides northeastern Iran, parts of Afghanistan and much of Central Asia.

While Khorasan is said to mean “The Eastern Province,”it is also said to mean “The Land of the Sun.”

During the Qajar Dynasty and Empire, of what was then called the Sublime State of Persia between 1789 and 1925, Britain supported the Afghans to protect their East India Company.

Herat in Afghanistan was separated from Persia by British in the Anglo-Persian War of 1856 – 1857, and the Persians were unable to defeat the British to take back Herat.

Persia was compelled by the Treaty of Paris of 1857 not to challenge the British for Herat and other parts of what is today Afghanistan. Khorasan was divided into two parts in 1906, with the eastern part coming under British occupation, and the western section remained part of Persia, shown here.

Another example was the Ottoman Empire, founded at the end of the 13th-century in northwestern Anatolia…

…and existing as a vast empire and center of interactions between east and west until the end of World War I, when it was defeated as an ally of Germany and occupied by Allied forces.

At this time, the Ottoman Empire was partitioned and lost its Middle East holdings, which were divided between the Allied Forces.

Then there is what happened to historical Armenia, much of which today is a part of Turkey.

There was a time when Armenia was considered the center of the world, as depicted in this map.

The Sumerians called Ararat “Arrata,” and they tell of this land of their ancestors in the Armenian Highlands in their epic poem of Gilgamesh.

At the end of World War I, when the victorious powers divided up the Ottoman Empire, the 1920 Treaty of Sevres promised to maintain the existence of the Armenian Republic and to attach the former territories of Ottoman Armenia to it.

Ottoman Armenia was referred to as Wilsonian Armenia because the new borders were to be drawn by U. S. President Woodrow Wilson.

The Treaty of Sevres never came into effect because it was rejected by the Turkish National Movement, which used the occasion to declare itself as the rightful government of Turkey.

Turkish Nationalist Forces invaded Armenia in 1920 from the east, ultimately forcing most of the Armenian military forces to disarm, cede back the former Ottoman lands granted to Armenia by the Treaty, and to give up “Wilsonian Armenia.”

And during the same time frame, the Soviet Eleventh Army invaded Armenia, and ultimately took complete control of the rest of it in 1921.

Thus, the Turkish War of Independence initiated under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk against the occupying powers resulted in the abolition of the monarchy in 1922, and the establishment of the Republic of Turkey in 1923.

Ataturk was the first president of the new republic, moving the country’s seat of power from Istanbul to Ankara.

Obviously this region of historical Armenia was highly prized, and its people were persecuted and many were killed.

The next area I am going to look into specifically are wars themselves.

It is noteworthy there are so many military engagements historically that have taken place along these alignments I have been tracking, which include, but aren’t limited to, the Napoleonic Wars, World War I, World War II, Viet Nam, among others.

It makes me wonder what they were really all about with regards to the ancient advanced Moorish Civilization and the earth’s energy grid system.

I find it interesting that General Charles Cornwallis, famous for being defeated at, and surrendering after the Battle of Yorktown in 1781, ending the American Revolutionary War…

…apparently was rewarded with knighthood in 1786, and in the same year became the Governor-General and Commander-in-Chief of the British Colony in India.

He commanded the army that successfully stormed Nandidurg in 1791, an ancient hilltop fortress in Karnataka State that was at one time believed to have been impregnable.

This was during the Third Anglo-Mysore War, a conflict in South India between the British East India Company and the Kingdom of Mysore.

Here are some examples I found from the time of the Napoleonic Wars and empire.

The French invasion of Malta in 1798, led by Napoleon himself, was part of the Mediterranean Campaign in the War of the Second Coalition of the French Revolutionary Wars.

The Order of the Knights Hospitallers, the rulers of Malta since 1530, surrendered to Napoleon when the French landed there.

The island country of Malta is located in the Mediterranean Sea between Sicily and Tunisia.

We are told that during the short time Napoleon was in the capital city, Valletta, between June 12th and 18th of 1798, he reformed, among other things, national administration with the creation of a Government Commission and twelve municipalities; a public finance administration, and the organization of public education, providing for primary and secondary education.

All this before sailing for Egypt, and leaving a substantial garrison in Malta.

Huh?

All this in a week?

And why?

After the British Royal Navy destroyed the French Mediterranean fleet at the Battle of the Nile in Egypt on August 1st, 1798, the British were able to initiate a blockade of Malta, assisted by an uprising of the native Maltese against French rule. The blockade effectively ended the French Occupation of Malta in 1800, and replaced it with British Protectorate, returning control of the central Mediterranean to Great Britain.

In the 1814 Treaty of Paris, Malta officially became part of the British Empire and was used as a shipping way-station and fleet headquarters.

When the Suez Canal opened in 1869, Malta was considered an important stop on the way to India, a central trade route for the British, because it was half-way between the Strait of Gibraltar and Egypt.

Malta gained its independence from Britain in 1964.

Napoleon proclaimed himself emperor of France in 1804.

Apparently he was very interested in the part of Calabria, the region in the toe of the boot of Italy, that is across from Messina in Sicily in the Strait of Messina.

He made his older brother, Joseph-Napoleon, the King of Naples and Sicily between 1806 and 1808, who we are told, implemented administrative reforms in 1806 that abolished the ruling system that was in place there, and the Lordship of Fiumara disappeared.

 

We are told the Union of the Kingdom of Denmark-Norway, also known as the Oldenburg Monarchy, existed as a dual monarchy between 1537 and 1814, with Copenhagen as its capital.

The Oldenburg Monarchy had long-remained neutral in the Napoleonic Wars.

Britain was said to have feared that Napoleon would attempt to conquer the Danish-Norwegian naval fleet, and used that as a pretext to attack Copenhagen in what became known as the Siege of Copenhagen in August of 1807, and Britain seized the naval fleet in September of 1807.

This also assured the use of the sea lanes in the North Sea and Baltic Sea for the British merchant fleet.

The “fleet robbery” drew Denmark-Norway into the war on the side of Napoleon.

Then in 1814, during the Napoleonic Wars, the Treaty of Kiel, between the United Kingdom and Sweden on the anti-French-side, and Norway and Denmark on the French-side, dissolved the Oldenburg Monarchy by transferring Norway to the King of Sweden.

The King of Denmark retained the Faroe Islands, Greenland, and Iceland.

The Barbary Wars were a series of conflicts culminating in two main wars fought between the United States, Sweden, and the Barbary States of the Ottoman Empire in the late 18th- and early 19th-century.

We are told that Barbary pirates demanded tribute from American vessels in the Mediterranean Sea, and in 1801, President Thomas Jefferson refused to pay, and sent a U. S. Naval fleet to the Mediterranean in May of that year, and which lasted until 1805.

We are told the naval fleet commenced bombarding various fortified “pirate” cities in present-day Libya, Tunisia, and Algeria, over the next three years until concessions of fair passage were extracted from their rulers, which were most likely the Deys of Tripoli, Tunis, and Algiers, in the First Barbary War.

The second Barbary War took place in 1815 between the United States and the Barbary States, and we are told, brought to an end the American practice of paying tribute to the “pirate” states and marked the beginning of the end of piracy in that region.

I would love to know what was really going on here with regards to the Barbary Moors, but that information is nowhere to be found.

The First Anglo-Afghan War was fought for three years between the British East India Company and the Emirate of Afghanistan starting in 1839, after the British had successfully captured Kabul, and they capitalized on a succession dispute between a current and former Emir there, at which time the British exiled the Emir at the time, Dost Mohammed, and installed the former Emir, Shah Shujah.

When the main British forces occupying Kabul retreated in January of 1842, they were almost completely annihilated by Afghani tribesmen. In retaliation, the British sent what was called an “Army of Retribution” to Kabul to avenge their defeat, and demolished parts of the city, recovered prisoners, and left Afghanistan, with the exiled Emir Dost Mohammed returning from India to Kabul.

Destruction that was done in retaliation for people who were defending their own land from invading foreigners who wanted to take it.

The First Anglo-Afghan War is called one of the first major conflicts of what was called “The Great Game,” the 19th-century competition for power and influence in central Asia between Britain and Russia.

During World War I, the Strait of Dardenelles in Turkey was the location of the Gallipoli Campaign, one of the bloodiest battles of the war.

There were at least 24 forts in the Strait of Dardenelles, as they were numbered.

The Gallipoli Campaign took place between April 25, 1915, and January 9, 1916. A joint British and French operation was mounted to capture the Ottoman capital of Constantinople (known as Istanbul since 1923) and secure a sea route to Russia. The Ottomans were victorious at the end of this campaign.

There were direct attacks on the star forts in the Strait of Dardanelles – they were bombarded, and in many cases, completely destroyed.

For example, the Royal Navy bombarded the Sedd-el-Bahr fort on Cape Helles at the entrance to the Straits at the beginning of the joint-British-and-French amphibious invasion, which started on April 25th of 1915…

…and the fort at Kum Kale was on the opposite side of entrance to the Strait of Dardenelles from Cape Helles.

The Battle of Kum Kale was said to have also been fought on April 25th, 1915, between Ottoman defenders and French troops as a diversion from the main landings on the Gallipoli Peninsula.

The fort at Kum Kale was completely destroyed by naval gun fire early in the operations.

These are examples of some of the things that took place during World War II.

Reza Shah Pahlavi was deposed in September of 1941 as a result of the British and Soviet Invasion of Iran during World War II because he was seen as a German ally even though Iran had maintained neutrality in the conflict, which took place purportedly to secure Iran’s oil fields and the railroad used a supply route for war material for the Soviet Union along what was called the “Persian Corridor.”

The 865-mile, or 1,392-kilometer, Trans-Iranian Railroad was opened during the reign of Reza Shah Pahlavi in 1939.

He was replaced as Shah by his young son, Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran, who was overthrown as Head-of-State on February 11th of 1979, after which time the country became the Islamic Republic of Iran.

In Valletta, the capital of Malta, there were many targets of aerial bombardment, starting on the first day Malta became involved in the conflict of World War II, on June 11th of 1940.

These targets included Fort St. Elmo…

…Fort Ricasoli…

…and the Royal Opera House, which took a direct hit in April of 1942 from German Air Force bombers, and was almost completely destroyed.

The Royal Opera Theater was said to have been designed by the English architect Edward Middleton Barry in 1866…

 …and this is what it looks like today, which was developed into an open air theater which opened in August of 2013.

On the same alignment as Malta in Tunisia, the Battle of Kasserine Pass took place during the Tunisia Campaign of World War II. It was the first major engagement between American and Axis forces in Africa.

With the Axis German and Italian Forces led by Field Marshall Erwin Rommel, it was an early defeat for Allied forces.

In 1945, in the last months of World War II, the Battle of Manila brought destruction and havoc to the city of Manila and its rail infrastructure.

The Manila Tranvias fleet was damaged beyond repair, and abandoned immediately after the war.

The rails were pulled up from the city streets, and surviving streetcars were hauled away and scrapped.

This was the end of what had previously been considered one of the best street-rail networks in Asia.

The Grand Palais in Hanoi was also completely destroyed by airstrikes in 1945, at the end of World War II.

The reason given was that when the Japanese took over Viet Nam in 1940, they based their military and supply in the palace.

The Grand Palais was said to have been built specifically for the Hanoi Exposition in 1902.

We are told Sweden was successfully able to maintain its policy of neutrality during the entirety of World War II.

Wow! Great, right?

Well, in Sweden’s case, keeping its neutrality translated to allowing the Germans to transport the 163rd Infantry Division in 1941, along with heavy weapons, from Norway to Finland; allowing German soldiers to use the railway when on leave between these two countries; and selling iron ore to Germany throughout the war.

For the Allies, Sweden shared military intelligence, and helped to train soldiers from Norway and Denmark, to enable them to be used for the liberation of their home countries; and allowed the Allies to use Swedish air bases between 1944 and 1945.

It sounds like Sweden’s definition of neutrality was having no problem working for both sides.

How different would World War II have been if Sweden, for example, hadn’t allowed the Nazi Germans access to Finland, and thereby Russia, for troop and weapons transport?

In the years between the Gulf of Tonkin Incident, an international confrontation that led to the United States engaging more directly in the Viet Nam War, in August of 1964 and its end in 1975…

…the neighboring country in Southeast Asia of Laos had its own problems with the Viet Nam war spilling over, with Laos being bombed by American planes starting in 1964, in retaliation we are told, for the shooting down of an American plane by insurgents, and after which bombing runs over Laos intensified, with over 100,000 bombing runs on Laos’ eastern border with North Viet Nam.

The Plain of Jars in Laos…

…was heavily bombed between 1964 and 1973 by the U. S. Air Force operating against the North Vietnamese and Pathet Lao communist forces, and it was said that the Air Force dropped more bombs on the Plain of Jars than it dropped during the entirety of World War II.

These were some unexploded bombs removed from the Plain of Jars from the secret war in Laos.

Why the incessant and excessive bombing of a megalithic archeological site?

Per capita, Laos is the most bombed country in history!

Besides regime change, and acquisition of whole empires, it sure looks to me like wars took place in order to damage and/or destroy, at the very least, the infrastructure of the ancient, advanced Moorish civilization.

The next area of research I would like to get into about how the New World was created from the Old World is the subject of Conferences.

The Congress of Vienna was said to be one of the most important international conferences in European history.

It was a meeting of ambassadors of European states held in Vienna in Austria between 1814 and 1815 in order to remake Europe after the downfall of Napoleon.

The stated goal was to resize the main powers so they could balance each other and in this way remain at peace, and not simply to restore old boundaries.

As a result of the Congress of Vienna, France lost all of its recent conquests, while Prussia, Austria, and Russia made major territorial gains.

Most of the discussions took place in informal, face-to-face sessions among the ambassadors of Austria, Britain, France, Russia, and sometimes Prussia, with limited or no participation by other delegates.

As such, the so-called Congress of Vienna never met in plenary session, which means a session in which all members of all parties are able to attend.

The Berlin Conference of 1884 – 1885 was organized by the German Chancellor Otto von Bismarck in order to regulate European colonization and trade in Africa during the New Imperialism period, and coincided with Germany’s sudden appearance as a imperial power.

The outcome of the “General Act of the Berlin Conference” can be seen as the formalization of the “Scramble for Africa,” also known as the “Partition of Africa” or the “Conquest of Africa,” was the invasion, occupation, and division of African territory by European powers during the New Imperialism period between 1884 and 1914, the year in which World War I started.

The period of history known as New Imperialism is characterized as a period of colonial expansion by European powers, the United States, and Japan during the late 1800s and early 1900s.

Otto von Bismarck was the masterminbd behind the unification of Germany in 1871, and served as its first chancellor until 1890.

While on one hand, he was said to have skillfully used balance-of-power diplomacy to maintain Germany’s position for 20-years in a peaceful Europe, at the same time the way he unified Germany was by provoking three short, decisive wars with Denmark, Austria, and France, and by abolishing the supra-national German Confederation, an association of 39 German-speaking states in Central Europe that was created by the Congress of Vienna to replace the former Holy Roman Empire, and formed the German Empire, which excluded Austria.

He also annexed Alsace-Lorraine on the border with Germany, which was part of France, as a result of the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 – 1871.

We are told that France’s determination to regain Alsace-Lorraine, and fear of another Franco-German war, as well as British apprehension about the balance-of-power, became factors in the causes of World War I.

The last subject of this post are how treaties were used to create the New World from the Old World.

The Treaty of Utrecht, or Peace of Utrecht, was a series of what is described as peace treaties signed between April of 1713 and February of 1715 in the Dutch city of Utrecht by the belligerents in the War of Spanish Succession.

The War of Spanish Succession came about, we are told, when the last Hapsburg King of Spain, Charles II, died childless in 1700, and he named his grand-nephew Philip of France as his successor in his last will, who became King Philip V of Spain in 1700.

Philip was also the grandson of King Louis XIV of France, and also in line for the French throne.

The other major powers in Europe were not willing to tolerate the potential union of these two powerful states.

The Utrecht treaties allowed Philip to take the Spanish throne in return for permanently renouncing his claim to the French throne, and paved the way for the European system based on balance-of-power.

As an extra step, Great Britain, France, and the Dutch Republic sign the Triple Alliance as a way to maintain the Treaties of Utrecht on January 4th, 1717.

So as a result of all of this, in preventing the thrones of Spain and France from merging together, the way was ultimately paved for the maritime, commercial, and financial supremacy of Great Britain.

The Treaty of Nanking, or Nanjing, between the British Empire and China was signed after China’s defeat, after the First Opium War in 1842.

The First Opium War was fought between Qing Dynasty of China and Britain between 1839 and 1842, a military engagement that started when the Chinese seized opium stocks at Canton in order to stop the opium trade, which was banned.

The British government insisted upon free trade and equality among nations and backed the merchants’ demands.

From 1757 to 1842, the Canton System served as a means for China to control trade with the west by focusing all trade in the southern port of Canton.

To counter this, the British East India Company began to grow opium in Bengal, in present-day Bangladesh, and allowed private British merchants to sell opium to Chinese smugglers for illegal sale in China.

As a result from these events in history, opium dens, establishments where opium was sold and smoked, became prevalent in many parts of the world throughout the 19th-century.

Interesting to note that the first British diplomatic mission to China, the Macartney Mission, took place in 1793, only fifty-years before the signing of the Treaty of Nanking.

The goals of the Macartney Mission were to: 1) Open new ports for British trade in China; 2) the establishment of a permanent embassy in what was then called Peking, now Beijing; 3) the cession of a small island off the coast of China for Britain’s use; and 4) the relaxation of trade restrictions on British merchants in Canton in southern China.

While it was said to have failed to achieve its objectives, the Macartney Mission was noted for having brought back extensive cultural, political, and geographical observations that its participants recorded.

 Millard Fillmore was the Vice-President to President Zachary Taylor, who was said to have died of problems from something he ate several days after attending a July 4th celebration in 1850.    So he became President Millard Fillmore in 1850.

Commodore Matthew Perry played a leading role in the Opening of Japan, starting on July 8th, 1853, when he led four U. S. Navy ships ordered by President Fillmore to Tokyo Bay with the mission of forcing the opening of Japanese ports to American trade by any means necessary.

After threatening to burn Tokyo to the ground, he was allowed to land and deliver a letter with United States demands to the Tokugawa Shogun, Ieyoshi.

The Shogun Ieyoshi died a short time after Perry’s departure in July of 1853, leaving effective administration in the hands of the Council of Elders, though nominally to his sickly son, Iesada, who was the Tokugawa Shogun from 1853 to 1858.

The Tokugawa Shogunate is called the last feudal Japanese Military Government.

Perry returned again with eight naval vessels in February of 1854, and on March 31st of 1854, the Japanese Emperor Komei signed the “Japan and United States Treaty of Peace and Amity” at the Convention of Kanagawa under threat of force if the Japanese government did not open the ports of Shimoda and Hakodate to American vessels.

Then there’s the history we are taught about the Ionian Islands, or Heptanese, a group of seven main islands in the Ionian Sea off the west coast of Greece.

I will start when the Ionian Islands were said to have become part of the Venetian Republic in 1500 A.D., also known as La Serenissima, or Most Serene Republic of Venice, described as a sovereign state and maritime republic.

The Treaty of Campoformio was signed by Napoleon Bonaparte and Count Philipp von Cobenzi, as representatives of the French Republic and the Austrian Monarchy respectively, in 1797.

This treaty disbanded and partitioned the Venetian Republic by the French and the Austrians, and the Ionian Islands were awarded to France.

At that time, the Ionian Islands became the short-lived French Department of Ithaque, as it fell to the Russians in 1798, and was officially ended in 1802.

Between the years of 1800 and 1807, the Ionian Islands were known as the Septinsular Republic under Russian and Ottoman rule after the Russian/Ottoman fleet defeated Napoleon Bonaparte.

Then in 1807, Napoleon signed two agreements in the town of Tilsit in what was the Prussia in East Germany, one between Emperor Alexander I of Russia, and the second treaty was signed with Prussia, and the Ionian Islands were returned to France, becoming a French Protectorate.

Then, in 1809, the British blockaded the Ionian Islands as part of the war against Napoleon, in September of that year, hoisted the British flag on the island of Zakynthos, with Kefalonia and Ithaca soon surrendering. The British installed provisional governments here.

The Treaty of Paris of 1815 recognized the United States of the Ionian Islands, and established them as a British Protectorate.

Then, in 1864, the Ionian Islands were transferred back to Greece to become a full member of the Greek State when the British-backed Prince William of Denmark became King George the I of the Hellenes in 1863.

When King George was nearing the 50th-year of his reign, he was assassinated in 1913 in Thessaloniki, near the White Tower…

…by a Socialist named Alexandros Schinas, who said, when he was arrested, that he killed the king because the king had refused to give him money.

I think the truth of the matter is that all these players were actually working towards the same goal of taking down the Old World Order, taking its wealth, faking the historical narrative to exclude the original civilization, and establishing the conditions for what we have seen happening in the world today.

Earth’s people and grid system was deliberately hijacked by dark beings with a negative agenda, who definitely don’t want us to wake up to our true history and who we really are, and have worked hard, hard, hard to keep this from happening!

I have come to believe through my research that a worldwide liquefaction event was deliberately created, and that the original ancient advanced civilization was wiped out, erased from our collective memory, and a new historical narrative was created, based on the underpinnings of the original civilization, but original meanings and intents were twisted and subverted in order to create a system of control for Humanity.

It is important for me to note that at first I thought with all of the detailed history of India, for example, in the historical narrative we are given, that it wasn’t mud-flooded, and had to be taken down by other means.  Then in doing research through India, I found these pictures.

This is a picture of the Qtub Shahi Tombs from the Golconda Fort in Hyderabad, India, circa 1902 or 1903.

And this photo was said to be of Khuldabad Rest House, near the Ellora Caves in India, circa 1890.

In this series, I have to share what the narrative we are given has to say about our history because there is no other written information to explain otherwise.

In the second-part of this series, I am going to be looking at how papal bulls, Jesuits & other religious orders, colonization, and place name changes were employed to create the New World from the Old World.

In the last post, I tracked the alignment from the Ellora Caves in the Aurangabad District of Maharastra, India, and one of the largest, rock-cut, monastery-cave temple complexes in the world, and Khuldabad in Aurangabad, known as the “Valley of the Saints;” to Indore, the largest and most populated city of Madhya Pradesh State.

The next place on the alignment is Udaipur, also known as the “City of the Lakes,” in India’s Rajasthan State.

Another nickname of Udaipur is “Venice of the East.”

It was the historic capital of the Mewar Kingdom…

…said to have been founded in 1558 by Udai Singh II of the Sisodia clan of Rajput…

…after he shifted his capital from Chittorgarh…

…because it was beseiged by the third Mughal Emperor, Akbar, who reigned from 1556 to 1605.

Yet I find this picture of Akbar looking more like a saint, with the light of spiritual illumination surrounding his head, than a depiction of a general who was said to have extended the influence of the Mughal Empire over almost the entire Indian subcontinent because of military, political, cultural, and economic dominance.

Udai Singh II was said to have been crowned by the nobles of Mewar in 1540 in the Kumbhalghar, a Mewar fortress said to have been built in the Aravalli Hills around Udaipur in the 15th-century the Mewar King Rana Kumbha.

It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site included in the Hill Forts of Rajasthan.

Udai Singh II was said to have built his new palace on a location chosen for him by a hermit he came across while looking for a place to build it, called the “City Palace” today.

This is the entrance to the Peacock Courtyard at the City Palace, known as the “Mor Chowk.”

This courtyard was used for royal banquets, and has mosaics of peacocks on the walls surrounding the courtyard.

Udai Singh II was also said to have built a 4-mile, or 6-kilometer, long wall, with 7-gates, in order to protect Udaipur from external attacks.

This is one of the wall’s gates…the gate of the City Palace…known as the “Tripolia Pol,” or “Triple Gate.”

The area within this wall is still known as the “Old City” or “Walled City.”

This is a view of the City Palace in the Old City from Lake Pichola.

Lake Pichola is described as an artificial freshwater lake that was said to have been created in 1362 by Picchu Banjara, a gypsy tribesman who transported grain during the reign of Maharana Lakha, the third Maharana of the Mewar Kingdom.

It’s not clear here.

Are we being told one man built this artificial lake?

I looked for other references, but the available historical record consistently came back to the lake having been built by this man…in the 1300s…before Udaipur was said to have even been founded.

In addition, Lake Pichola has four artificial islands.

The Jag Niwas, where the Lake Palace is built.

Now a hotel, it was said to have been built between 1743 and 1746, under the direction of Mewar Maharana Janat Singh II.

Jag Mandir is an island and palace in Lake Pichola…

…said to have been constructed by three Maharanas some time between 1551 and 1652…

…as well as the island of Mohan Mandir…

…and Arsi Vilas.

So far, the origin stories of Udaipur, contrasted with the magnificence of the architecture and infrastructure, are just not adding up.

Let’s take a look at some other places in Udaipur and see what we find.

The Sajjan Garh fort is a hilltop palatial residence in Udaipur, with a panoramic view of the city’s lakes, palaces, and surrounding countryside…

…and named after Maharana Sajjan Singh, who was said to have built it in 1884.

Also known as the Monsoon Palace, it was said to have been built there in order to watch the monsoon clouds.

Here is a beautiful example of the symmetry, proportion and alignment of archways and openings at Sajjan Ghar…

…that I have found around the world, like the Alhambra, in Grenada, Spain, and a classic example of Moorish architecture…

…the Palace of the Kings of Majorca in Perpignan, in southern France…

…and in Indonesia, at the Baiturraman Grand Mosque in Banda Aceh.

The Sajjan Ghar Fort overlooks Fateh Sagar Lake, another of Udaipur’s artificial lakes.

Fateh Sagar Lake was said to have been built in 1680s, with no details on the builders of it.

Udaipur Solar Observatory is on one of three artificial islands in the lake.

Said to have been built in 1976, it has one of the most powerful solar telescopes in the world.

It was said to follow the model of the solar observatory at Big Bear Lake in Southern California.

Udai Sagar Lake is another one of the lakes of Udaipur, and said to have been constructed as a reservoir for the city in 1559 by Maharana Udai Singh II, the founder of Udaipur.

Dhebar Lake near Udaipur is India’s second-largest artificial lake.

Dhebar Lake was said to have been created in the 17th-century by Rana Jai Singh when he built a marble dam across the Gomati River, resulting in the largest artificial lake in the world at the time.

The tribe of Bhil Minas inhabits all three islands on Dhebar Lake.

The Bhils, who speak a subgroup of the western zone of the Indo-Aryan languages, are one of the largest indigenous groups in India, as well as among the most economically deprived peoples of India.

This is interesting to note because they are among the oldest communities in India and were inhabitants of the ancient Indus River Valley civilization.

As a matter of fact, the ruins of Balathal in the Udaipur District were from what was connected the Ahar-Banas Culture of the Harappans of Indus River Valley, one of at least 90 Ahar Culture sites in the basins of the Ahar and Banas rivers…

…and where the skeletal remains of a 2,700-year-old yogi were found, sitting in a state of what is called “samadhi,” a meditative consciousness in which human consciousness becomes one with cosmic consciousness.

The Bhil Minas tribe was the ruling tribe before the Kachhawaha clan of Rajputs, otherwise known as the Mewar Kingdom, forced them to hide out in the Aravalli Hills, and they were named a criminal tribe by the British government in 1924 to keep them from regaining power over the Rajputs.

They were subsequently given protection as a Scheduled Tribe after the upliftment in 1949 of the Criminal Tribe Act, which had been enacted on October 12th of 1871.

The Criminal Tribes Act of 1871 criminalized entire communities by designating them as habitual criminals, and restrictions on their movements imposed, including men having to report to the police once per week. Hmmm.

A Scheduled Tribe is recognized by the Indian Constitution, have political representation, and yet they are legally totally or partially excluded from various types of services important for leading a healthy life, and altogether, the Scheduled Tribes of India make-up almost 10% of the population, and are considered India’s poorest people.

This is a panoramic view of Udaipur’s Old City, which was said to date back to the city’s founding by the Mewar king, Maharana Udai Singh II, in 1558.

Udaipur is a great case study of the marginalization, and even criminalization, of the earth’s ancient indigenous people, and the re-written history to explain the existence of their masterful infrastructure.

The next place on the alignment is Jodhpur, the second-largest city of India’s Rajasthan state, and historically the capital of the Kingdom of Marwar.

Also known as the Blue City, Jodhpur is dominated by Meheranghar Fort.

Meheranghar Fort is one of the largest forts in India, situated 410-feet, or 125-meters, above the city, and enclosed by thick walls.

It was said to have been by Rao Jodha, the 15th Rathore ruler, starting in 1459, who we are told was the founder of Jodhpur.

Also called the Citadel of the Sun, inside the walls of Meheranghar Fort there are several palaces known for their intricate carvings and expansive courtyards.

The palaces of Mehrangahr Fort constitute one of the finest museums in Rajasthan.

In 2016, Jodhpur, along with Mumbai, made it on the list of the world’s most inspiring cities.

The Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur is one of the world’s largest private residences.

It was said to have been built starting in 1929 by the Majarana Uwaid Singh as the principal residence of the former Jodhpur royal family, and still owned by the family in the present-day.

We are told the Majarana decided to build the palace to help the farmers of Jodhpur, who had just experienced a severe famine, and that he commissioned the British architect, Henry Vaughan Lanchester, for the design of the palace.

We are told it took 2,000 to 3,000 farmers 14-years to complete the construction project, which took place in 1943 (in the middle of World War II).

A part of the palace is managed by Taj Hotels, and it recently received an award as the world’s best hotel.

The Clock Tower of Rajasthan in Jodhpur, also known as the Ghanta Ghar…

…was said to have been built by Sardar Singh, who was the Maharaja of Jodhpur between 1895 and 1911.

The Jaswant Theda in Jodhpur is a cenotaph, which is defined as an empty tomb or monument erected in honor of a person or group, also said to have been built by Maharaja Sardar Singh, in 1899, in honor of his father, the previous maharaja, Jaswat Singh II.

Jodhpur is situated next to the Thar Desert, also known as the Great Indian Desert, covering about 66,000-square-miles, or 170,000-kilometers-squared.

My question is this: Is there enduring infrastructure underneath all those sand dunes?

The next place I would like to look at is a city on the other side of the Thar Desert from Jodhpur, and which is Bikaner, also in India’s Rajasthan state.

Formerly the capital of the Princely state of Bikaner, it was said to have been founded in 1488 AD by Rao Bika, the son of Rao Jodha, the founder of Jodhpur.

The Gang Canal, also known as Ganga Canal, of Rajasthan was said to have been an irrigation system of canals built between 1925 and 1927 by Maharaja Ganga Singh of Bikaner.

The Indira Gandhi Canal runs near here as well.

It is the longest canal in India, and was said to have been completed in 1983.

It runs 400-miles, or 650-kilometers, from northern India to irrigation facilities in the Thar Desert.

Junaghar Fort in Bikaner was said to have been built between 1589 and 1594.

While it was said in records that in its history, the fort was attacked by enemies in an effort to capture it, the fort complex is also studded with palaces, temples and pavilions.

Lalgarh palace is a palace and heritage hotel in Bikaner, located near the Junaghar Fort.

It has a story somewhat similar to the Umaid Bhawan Palace back in Jodhpur.

It was said to have been commissioned by the British-controlled regency for Maharaja Ganga Singh while he was still in his minority because they considered the existing Junaghar Fort Palace as unsuitable for a modern monarch.

Here is a comparison of the two palace complexes in Bikaner so that you can see…

…they are built in a similar style, and Lalgarh Palace doesn’t appear to have been modernized in comparison of the two.

It’s construction was said to have begun in 1902, with the complex having been designed in Indo-Saracenic style by British architect Sir Samuel Jacob Swinton, and completed in 1926.

Like Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, Laxmi Nivas Palace, part of the Lalbagh Palace complex, is leased as a heritage hotel.

The last place on this alignment is Multan, the major cultural and economic center of the southern Punjab Province of Pakistan.

Multan’s history stretches way back into antiquity.

Multan was the location of the ancient Multan Sun Temple, said to date back 5,000 years…

…which would make it contemporaneous with the neolithic complex of Avebury in southern England…

…and the Watson Brake Mounds, in Richwood, Louisiana, near Monroe and Poverty Point.

Watson Brake is dated to 5,400 years ago, and is considered the oldest earthwork mound complex in North America. Note the summer and winter solstice alignments depicted here in this diagram of Watson Brake.

This is the entrance to what is called the Multan Fort is on the left, and for comparison on the right is the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch at Bushnell Park in Hartford, Connecticut.

The ancient Harappan Civilization of this region, also known as the Indus River Valley Civilization, was known for their urban-planning, baked-brick houses, elaborate drainage systems, water-supply systems, clusters of large, non-residential buildings, and metallurgy. I even read where they even had street-lights, and extremely accurate systems of weights and measures.

Multan was one of the most important trading centers of medieval Islamic India, and attracted a multitude of Sufi mystics in the 11th- and 12th-centuries, and is known as the “City of the Saints.”

Multan is renowned for its large number of Sufi shrines from that time…

…as well as the Sufi shrines in the nearby city of Uch…

…of which the original shrines seem to be missing large chunks from the original architecture.

Sufis were mystics, and practitioners of the inward dimension of Islam.

Sufism emphasizes personal experience with the Divine, and concentrating one’s energy on spiritual development rather than focusing on the teachings of human religious scholars.

So here we have been passing through this part of the world, known as a highly spiritual place with people actively pursuing a deep, personal connection with the Divine.

It is interesting to note that we find the Shri Jasnath Ashram in the Thar Desert, in the Nagaur District of Rajasthan, between Jodhpur and Bikaner.

This yogic retreat is in the village of Panchla Siddha, or place of deep meditation, said to have been founded over 500 years ago, and considered a place highly charged with spiritual energy.

In the the Mahabharata, a major Sanskit epic of India, a magical weapon described as an “brahmastra” was said to have been detonated at the end of the 18-day Battle of Kurukshetra.

A “brahmastra” was said to have been “a single projectile charged with all the power in the Universe.”

Any target hit by the “brahmastra” would be utterly destroyed; land would become barren and lifeless; rainfall would cease; and humans and animals would become infertile.

The Pandavas were said to have vanquished their enemy, the Kauravas, with the devastating weapon, but the few surviving Pandavas discovered there was nothing left to occupy, and no one left to rule.

The “brahmastra” had turned the region of present-day Rajasthan to desert.

Well, to support this, evidence exists that exactly this part of the world was devastated by nuclear war at some point in time. Perhaps in ancient times…

…but my research would leave me to believe it could have taken place much more recently in time than what we are told.

More thoughts on what I think is really going on here.

The Pashtun tribal peoples are the primary inhabitants of Pakistan and Afghanistan in a region regarded as Pashtunistan, which became split between the two countries since the formation of the Durand Line border between the two countries in 1893 after the second Anglo-Afghan War.

The name sake of the line, Sir Henry Mortimer Durand, was a British Diplomat and Civil Servant of the British Raj. We are told that together with the Afghan Emir, Abdur Rahman Khan, it was established to “fix the limit of their respective spheres of influence and improve diplomatic relations and trade. Well, that certainly sounds good…but what was really going on here?

The Durand Line cuts through the Pashtunistan and Balochistan regions, politically dividing ethnic Pashtuns and Baloch, who live on both sides of the border.

But, really, why divide a people in this fashion?

The Pashtun are a tribal nation of millions of Afghani and Pakistani Muslims who also have a strong oral tradition that they are descendants of lost ten Tribes of Israel, and they refer to themselves as Bani Israel. 

Here is an example of a Pashtun textile piece showing the sacred geometric shape of a star tetrahedron in the center, also known as the Star of David.

So, according to the history we have been taught, how can the Pashtun be Hebrew Israelites and Muslim at the same time?

For many reasons, this is a good opportunity to share why I think there was one original spiritual tradition, and that organized religion came in with the hijack of the original timeline for the purposes of control and serving an agenda not in Humanity’s best interests.

I recently realized that earth’s true history was not about organized religions, which was a stumbling block for me because of what we have been taught. 

The controllers didn’t rewrite history from scratch – they rewrote the historical narrative to fit their agenda. And from the new official historical reset year, which I believe was 1850 or 1851, we are immersed in learning their history of what has taken place here from a very young age.

This subjugation allowed for the identity of the True Israelites of the worldwide ancient advanced civilization to be co-opted by the Khazarian Jews and Zionists.

The Rothschilds purchased Jerusalem in 1829, and subsequently acquired considerable land in Palestine in the 1800s and early 1900s.

There is one more stream of information I would like to share before I start tying my thoughts together.

I started to figure this out after recently reading and internalizing the information in Key 2-1-5, Verse 70, of “The Keys of Enoch” transcribed by J. J. Hurtak. This particular key really reached out and grabbed my attention.

The Keys collectively explain how the Divine is extended and manifested through Higher Thought-forms that unfold throughout all realms of life.

One of the places mentioned in this key I am about to share was Lop Nor in China, which I was already familiar with being a nuclear test site because I had found and studied it in my earlier work by connecting the dots, in following the lines I had found, around the world.  There are other nuclear tests sites that I know of besides the ones listed below on the earth’s grid system.  Novaya Zemlya, a large island in the Arctic Ocean off the northern coast of Russia is one, and another is Reggane, Algeria, where the French did nuclear testing.  I am sure there are others as well.

This awareness led me to make the intuitive jump into looking for and compiling the following information from looking up these places on the internet, using among other things the key word “nuclear” or “nuclear test”.

Key 2-1-5, Verse 70:

Accordingly, the twelve energy grid areas for space-time transcription, and areas of proto-communication established by the conversion of each tribe of Israel for the watch and deliverance of the present program from the Treasury of Light, are the areas of: 

1)  Aral Sea-Kungrad (Uzbekistan)

The shrinking of the Aral Sea, diverted by irrigation projects, has been called one of the planet’s worse environmental disasters, and the region is heavily polluted.

2)  Takla Maklan – Lop Nur, Sinkiang

Lop Nur is an ancient salt lake in the Takla Maklan Desert in the Southeastern portion of the Uighur Autonomous Region of Xinjiang in China.

Chinese nuclear weapons test base had four nuclear testing zones from 1959 – with H-bomb detonation in 1967 – until 1996, with 45 nuclear tests conducted.

3)  The Philippine Islands

The 1965 Philippine Sea A-4 crash was a “Broken Arrow”* incident in which a USNA-4E Skyhawk attack aircraft carrying a nuclear weapon fell into the sea from the aircraft carrier U.S.S. Ticonderoga. Described as a “Free Fall nuclear weapon on a handling dolly” on 12/5/1965.

A “Broken Arrow” incident is defined as an unexpected event involving nuclear weapons that result in the accidental launching, firing, detonating, theft, or loss of the weapon.  To date, six nuclear weapons have been lost and never recovered.

4)  The Kwajalein – Marshall Islands

The location of the Pacific Proving Grounds, which was the Name given by the U. S. government to a number of sites in the Marshall islands and a few other sites in the Pacific Ocean between  1946 – 1962.  One Hundred five atmospheric and underwater nuclear tests were conducted in the Pacific. 

The Marshall Islands composed 80% of tested yields at 210 megatons.

5)  The Hawaiian Islands

The location of the Pearl Harbor attack in 1942 which brought the United States into World War II.

Johnston Atoll was controlled by the military for 70 years, and used for testing and as a chemical weapon and Agent Orange storage and disposal site.

Kaho’olawe island was used as a bombing range by the Armed Forces during World War II, and was known as the “Target Isle.”

6)  Vancouver Island

A Mark IV nuclear device dumped or exploded off the coast was found on 2/13/1950 similar to the atomic bomb that was dropped on Nagasaki.  The American B-36 bomber carrying it crashed en route from Alaska to Texas.

7)  From Pueblo, CO, to the Mescalero Apache Reservation of New Mexico

It is important to note that contained within the location described, are both Trinity Site, the first nuclear test detonation site near the Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation; and Los Alamos National Labs, which was established in 1943 as Site Y of the Manhattan Project to design and build the first atomic bomb.  Still in use today.

8)  From Lexington, Kentucky, to Tennessee

The Oak Ridge National Labs is in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, with a nickname of the Atomic City…it was established in 1943 as part of the Manhattan Project. 

It was chosen as a site for a graphite reactor to create plutonium from uranium. Still in use for nuclear research and development.

9)  Nova Scotia connecting with the Bermuda Islands

The date of the Halifax Explosion was December 6th of 1917, when a ship collision in the harbor caused a 2.9 kiloton detonation of TNT, killing at least 2,000 people, and injuring 9,000 – the largest manmade explosion prior to the development of nuclear weapons.

10)  The Azores

There was a “Broken Arrow” incident on May 22^nd of 1968, involving the loss of a nuclear reactor and two W34 nuclear warheads when a U.S. submarine sank from unknown causes, approximately 400 Nautical Miles southwest of the Azores.

11)  Lourdes, France

Nothing that I know of.

12)  Giza in Egypt

Nothing that I know of.

I find it more than statistically significant that at least ten out of the twelve places listed as being the twelve important energy grid areas for the space-time transcription of each Tribe of Israel had some kind of environmental disaster; nuclear testing facilities and/or test-site locations, nuclear accidents; or some kind of massive explosion.

I see all of this as an extremely hostile takeover of the earth’s grid system and the original advanced ancient human civilization in a war against the Creator and Creation through a Humanity in much lower consciousness than it was before all of this took place.

And what we know today as India went from having fabulous wealth and a high standard-of-living, to the third-world conditions that exist in many places for many people there today.

The same thing can be said about most, if not all, the world’s countries, especially compared with what was actually here before the reset event and new historical timeline.

ISLAM was originally all about: I-Self-Law-Am-Master.

It did not start out as the weaponized belief system we see today that was developed to divide and conquer.

And were the Children of Israel originally called the Children of Asarel?

In the last post, I expressed my belief based on my research that the Nazi obsession with creating a master race was based on re-creating the original Aryans, members of a worldwide advanced civilization known as Arrata which is now recognized as the world’s most ancient, known civilization, dating back to 22,000 BCE, developing in the steppes north of the Black Sea, in modern Ukraine and believed to spread out from there to India, Mesopotamia, Egypt, Western China, and across Europe.

Bharata-Varsha was said to be a name for ancient India, but this illustration depicts much more than the Indian subcontinent.

I tracked the “Ar” sound is contained in many historic place names, like some of the ones I mentioned in the last post – Armenia; Bavaria; Barbaria; Tartaria; Arabia; and Arizona.

These are “ar” sounds I reference in this post alone: Mewar Kingdom; Akbar, the Mughal Emperor; Kumbhalgar Fort; Aravalli Hills; Picchu Banjara; Maharana; Maharaja; Arsi Vilas Lake; Fateh Sagar Lake; Dhebar Lake; Ahar-Banas culture of the Harappan Civilization; Marwar Kingdom; Sardar Singh; Thar Desert; and the Mahabharata.

There are so many “ars” to be found when you start to look.

There is even an “ar” to be found in the spelling of “earth.”

One more thought in closing, not only of this post, but of this particular series.

At first I thought with all of the detailed history of India in the historical narrative we are given that it wasn’t mud-flooded, and had to be taken down by other means.  Then in doing research for this part of this series, I found these pictures.

This is a picture of the Qtub Shahi Tombs from the Golconda Fort in Hyderabad, India, circa 1902 or 1903.

And this photo was said to be of Khuldabad Rest House, near the Ellora Caves, circa 1890.

I have come to believe that a worldwide liquefaction event was deliberately created, and that the original ancient advanced civilization was wiped out, erased from our collective memory, and a new historical narrative was created, based on the underpinnings of the original civilization, but original meanings and intents were twisted and subverted in order to create a system of control for Humanity.

I also believe we are living in times of great change.

We are seeing some of what was planned for us by the controllers playing out right now, but I believe we are on the verge of a great change and shift that will change everything for the better…and soon.

Upcoming projects include tracking an alignment for the occurrence of mines and gemstones; a close look at the Channel Islands in the English Channel; and going back through this series, and pulling together some of the information I have found into one place, like information showing how the new world order was superimposed over the original civilization.

In the last post, I tracked the alignment from the Palk Strait, located between Sri Lanka and India; to Vellore, in the northeastern part of the Indian State of Tamil Nadu; and ended up at Hyderabad, the capital and largest city of Telengana State on the Deccan Plateau.

Next on the alignment we come to the Ellora Caves, located in the Aurangabad District of Maharastra, India.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is one of the largest rock-cut, monastery-temple cave complexes in the world, featuring Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain monuments and artwork, and we are told dating to the time-period of 600 – 1000 AD.

Of the 100-or-so caves at the site, excavated from the basalt cliffs in the Charanandri Hills, thirty-four are open to the public.

The Kailasa is the largest of the rock-cut temples at the Ellora Caves.

Carved from a rock-cliff face, it is considered one of the most remarkable cave temples in the world because of its size, architecture, and sculptural treatments.

Let me be clear: It is the world’s largest monolithic structure, meaning carved-out from the rock.

The Ajanta Caves are also in the Auranabad District of Maharashra state…

…almost thirty rock-cut Buddhist cave monuments, said to date from the 2nd-century BC to about 480 AD.

…and believed to be among the finest surviving examples of ancient Indian art, and masterpieces of Buddhist religious art.

The Ajanta Caves were said to have been re-discovered in 1819 by a British officer named John Smith.

While hunting tigers, he was said to have discovered the door to cave #10 when a local shepherd boy guided him to the location and the door.

John Smith went to a nearby village to get help gaining entrance to the temple, after which time he vandalized the wall by scratching his name and the date over a painting on the wall.

It is interesting to note that the Grand Canyon has Hindu names for some of its rock features, like the “Three Hindu Gods at the Grand Canyon…”

…as well as ones with Egyptian names, which are a part of the formation of a star map of the constellation Orion.

And there are stories from early explorers of the Grand Canyon, like the one of G. E. Kinkaid, who claimed to have found an entrance to a mysterious underground citadel…

…which led to the finding of a massive chamber from which scores of passages radiated…

…and finding, among many other similar things, an idol sitting cross-legged, with a lotus flower in each hand.

An expedition to a rock-cut vault in the Grand Canyon in 1909 by a Professor S. A. Jordan of the Smithsonian received front-page coverage in the Phoenix Gazette, about which the Smithsonian in short order was said to have claimed to not have knowledge of the discovery or the discoveries.

The “Grand Canyon of India…”

…is in a place called Gandikota, in the Andhra Pradesh State, along the Pennar River.

Gandikota, the center of power for various dynasties, including the Golconda Sultanate mentioned in the last post, also has a massive fort at Gandikota, built of granite, with a 20-foot, or 6-meter, high entry gate in a fort wall running around a 5-mile, or 8-kilometer, perimeter.

It has 101 bastions, each about 40-feet, or 12-meters, high.

The Belum Caves, approximately two-hours from Gandikota in Andhra Pradesh…

…are the largest and longest cave system open to the public on the Indian Subcontinent.

The Bezeklik Thousand Buddha Caves are found in Turpan, in the Uighur Autonomous Region of China, a complex of 77 rock-cut cave grottoes said to date from between the 5th and 14th centuries…

…that are located in what is called the Flaming Gorge…

…compared to the appearance of Arizona’s Grand Canyon.

Examples of places in other countries with massive architecture cut directly out of rock include the eleven monolithic churches of Lalibela in Ethiopia.

Here are three of them…

…the roof of the mausoleum of Theodoric outside of Ravenna in Italy is described as a single, 230-ton, or 209-metric-tonne type of limestone…

…which for some reason no longer has its beautiful double-stone-staircase, and other features it used to have that look like they have been filled in…

…the ancient site of Petra in Jordan…

…and the Lycian rock-cut Dalyan temples in the province of Antalya in southern Turkey.

Just a short distance from the Ellora Cave-Temple Complex in Khuldabad…

…is the Tomb of Aurangzeb, considered the last of the strong Mughal Emperors, and who died in 1707.

Aurangzeb means “Ornament of the Throne” in Persian.

A Persian name for the ruler of the Mughal Empire of the Indian subcontinent?

His burial site is located on at the complex of the dargah, or shrine, of Sheikh Zainuddin, a Sufi saint of the Dahkan, also known as Deccan, of India, and the spiritual and religious teacher of Aurangzeb.

As a matter of fact, Khuldabad is popular as the “Valley of Saints” because several Sufi saints resided there in the 14th-century.

Who were the Sufis?

They were mystics, and practitioners of the inward dimension of Islam.

Sufism emphasizes personal experience with the Divine, and concentrating one’s energy on spiritual development rather than focusing on the teachings of human religious scholars.

For example, followers of the Persian Sufi Mystic Rumi, from the Greater Khorasan…

…established the Mevlevi Order in Konya, Turkey, otherwise known as Whirling Dervishes,  who practice a spinning dance used to connect with the Divine.

Okay, this information about the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb having a Persian name and being a Sufi Muslim…

…and Rumi being a Persian from the Greater Khorasan is really nudging at my consciousness to bring in another stream of information.

Some of what I am about to share is based on things I have learned in tracking this alignment, and some of it is based on things I remember learning at some point in my life.

I am going to surf the synchronicities here because that is all I am able to do.

The validity of this information is gone from the official historical narrative about whether or not I am correct going in this direction.

I can’t definitively prove what I am going to say, but I can bring forward something that wants to come out in a meaningful way.

Earlier in this series, I tracked this alignment through Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, and Turkey.

I found the alignment running through a region historically called “the Greater Khorasan,” forming the northeast province of what is called Iran today, Persia historically, and comprising the present territories of northeastern Iran, parts of Afghanistan, and much of Central Asia.

Khorasan is said to mean something along the lines of “Land of the Sun,” or “Where the Sun Arrives from” in Persian.

Then, when I arrived in Turkey, known historically as Anatolia, I found out that Anatolia also means something along the lines of “Rising Sun” in ancient Greek.

Also, the “Land of the Rising Sun” is a popular nickname for the country of Japan.

So what this tells me is that the whole concept of the sun always rising on the empires of the ancient advanced civilization was embedded in language and collective awareness.

In similar fashion, we learned that the “Sun never set on the British Empire.”

We are told that between the 18th- and 20th-centuries, Britain acquired more and more territories, making it the largest empire in history.

When I saw the Persian name of the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, I vaguely recollected something about the Aryans. It rang the bell of a distant memory.

In looking up definitions of Aryan, here is what I am finding:

The Aryans brought Hindu religious thought to India;

The term was used by the Indo-Aryan people of the Vedic period in Ancient India as a religious label for themselves;

The Iranian people used the term as an ethnic label for themselves in the Avesta scriptures, the religious texts of Zoroastrianism, and the word “Aryan” forms the source of the country name Iran;

The definition of an Aryan, described by the Nazi Germans as a member of the Master Race, was not Jewish and had nordic features.

What exactly was the Nazi obsession with creating a Master Race all about?

Was this actually a desire to re-create the original Master Race?

Giant human beings who, among many other things, were capable of carving massive infrastructure right out of rock like it was no big deal?

When I was tracking this alignment through the modern country of Turkey, in the ancient region of Lake Van, I learned about the Kingdom of Urartu…

…which was historically part of Armenia.

Which brings me to the question: Who were the People of Ar?

Mt. Ararat, the legendary landing place of Noah’s Ark, was located in the historical Armenia, though now is within the boundaries of modern Turkey.

The Sumerians called Ararat “Arrata,” and they tell of this land of their ancestors in the Armenian Highlands in their epic poem of Gilgamesh.

Compare the boat pictured here with the Sumerian Gilgamesh with an ancient Egyptian boat…

…a boat on Lake Chad in Africa…

…and a boat on Lake Titicaca in Peru.

As a matter of fact, Arrata is said to be now recognized as the world’s most ancient, known civilization, dating back to 22,000 BCE, developing in the steppes north of the Black Sea, in modern Ukraine and believed to spread out from there to India, Mesopotamia, Egypt, Western China, and across Europe.

This is the Vorontsov Palace in Alupka, on the Black Sea’s Crimean Peninsula, which was historically part of the Ukraine, on the left, in comparison with the Jama Masyid Mosque in Delhi, India, on the right.

I found out that ancient India was known as Bharata Varsha at one time…or does the term Bharata Varsha refer to the entire earth?

Let’s take a look at Bavaria, a state in Germany, at the Linderhof Castle, the smallest of three castles said to have been built by mad King Ludwig II, constructed between 1863 and 1886.

This is the Peacock Throne found inside the Linderhof Palace.

…and Moorish architecture is found in this amazing room inside the main Linderhof Palace…

…and this building located on the grounds of the Linderhof Palace complex.

The Peacock Throne of the Mughal Emperor was a famous jewelled throne…

…located in the Hall of Private Audiences…

…at the Red Fort, in Delhi, India, the main residence of the Mughal Emperors.

…and now the Mughal Peacock Throne is on display at the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul, Turkey, not in India.

Where else can I find “Ars?”

Tartary, or Tartaria, a historical region in northern and Central Asia…

…the Barbary Coast, or Barbaria, the name given to a vast region stretching from the Nile River Delta, across Northern Africa, to the Canary Islands…

…Gandhara, an ancient Buddhist Kingdom primarily in what is now Pakistan, and part of the Kushan Empire…

…Arabia…

…Arizona in the United States, with its flag on the top, compared with the flag of Tibet on the bottom, both looking very much like a sunrays in the background…

…and Kumari Kandam, a lost continent in the Indian Ocean that had an ancient Tamil civilization, to name just a few.

Who were the People of Ar?

Originally, Humanity as a collective was taught the knowledge of who we really are as spiritual beings and living holograms of the Universe; how to reconnect with Higher Self by raising kundalini energy from the base of the spine up to the third-eye and crown chakras…and lived at a much, much higher level of consciousness and full potential in human form…

…before the Earth’s people and grid system was deliberately hijacked by dark beings with a negative agenda, who definitely don’t want us to wake up to our true history and who we really are.

Here’s the thing. By Universal Law, we have to give our consent for what they have done here, and the only way they can accomplish this consent is by outright lies, deception and duplicity because if people knew the true agenda of these controllers, the majority of Humanity would never, ever, ever accept anything that has taken place here.

They wanted to rule over it all, take all wealth for themselves, and control the destiny of Humanity for their own benefit, not ours. And more and more people are waking up to this every day ~ we do not consent…and we never consented!

Back to India.

The next place I want to take a look at on the alignment is Indore, the largest and most populated city in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh.

We are told Indore was founded in the 16th-century as a trading hub between Delhi and the Deccan region of India.

It was ruled as a princely state by the Holkar Dynasty until they acceded to the Union of Indian in 1947.

The first Holkar of the Dynasty was Malhar Rao Holkar, who ruled from 1731 to 1766.

This is the Chhatri, the definition of which is funerary monument, for him that was said to have been built by his daughter-in-law, Ahilyabai Holkar…

…who became Queen in the Holkar Dynasty after the death of her husband, Malhar Rao Holkar’s son, Khanderao Holkar.

Now compare the similarities between Malhar Rao Holkar’s Chhatri on the left with the building we saw previously on the grounds of the Linderhof Palace in Bavaria, Germany, on the right.

The Rajwada Palace in Indore was a royal residence of the Holkars…

…as was the Lal Bagh Palace.

The Lal Bagh brought to mind the Schaezlerpalais in the city of Augsburg, in Bavaria, Germany, which I remember visiting when I was stationed there in the Army in the mid- 1980s.

The Mahatma Gandhi Town Hall in Indore was said to have been built in 1904, named King Edward Hall, and renamed to honor Gandhi in 1948.

The Kanch Mandir in Indore is a Jain temple, said to have been built starting in 1903.

Meaning “Temple of Glass,” the inside is entirely covered by glass panels and mosaics, including the floor, columns, walls, and ceilings.

One side-note before ending this post.

The capital of the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh is Bhopal, which is 107-miles, or 172-kilometers, from Indore.

Bhopal was the location of the world’s worst industrial disaster in December of 1984, when the Union Carbide pesticide plant there leaked highly toxic methyl isocyanate gas, which made its way into the surrounding areas.

The official death toll at the time was 2,259, and this major gas leak caused over half-a-million injuries, with on-going effects over time.

One last point of information about Bhopal.

About ten years ago, archaeologists found the remains of twenty-one temples near Bhopal, in the village of Ashapuri, believed to date back 1,300-years .

These people were remarkably prolific builders.

In the next post, I am picking up the alignment in Jodhpur, India.

It will be the last post of this particular series on “Sacred Geometry, Ley-Lines & Places in Alignment.”

In the last post, I tracked the alignment from Adam’s Peak, a conical mountain in Sri Lanka that is revered by Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, and Christianity for the “Sri Pada,” or “Sacred Footprint”, a major pilgrimage site, and one of the twelve primary nodal points on the earth’s grid system; through Kandy, the last capital of the ancient kings’ era of Sri Lanka; to Sigirya, an ancient rock fortress in Sri Lanka’s Central Province that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and considered one of the best-preserved examples of urban planning in the world; to Jaffna, the capital city of the Northern Province of Sri Lanka, and part of a region historically called Naga Nadu.

The alignment from Jaffna crosses the Palk Strait, located between the Jaffna District of the Northern Province of Sri Lanka and the Tamil Nadu state of India.

It connects the Bay of Bengal…

…the largest bay in the world, at 839,000-square-miles, or 2, 172,000-square-kilometers…

…with Palk Bay, to the southwest.

The chain of low islands and reefs called Adam’s Bridge, also known as Rama’s Bridge, or Ramsethu, which separates the Gulf of Mannar, known for having one of the most productive Pearl fisheries in the world, from Palk Bay.

This is a depiction I found of what this place might have looked like when it connected India and Sri Lanka location circa 1480…

…at which time supposedly a cyclone deepened the channels between the two places.

At any rate, the Pamban Bridge, a railway bridge, connects the town of Mandapam in Tamil Nadu with Pamban Island and Rameswaram to the Indian Railways, ending at the Indian side of Adam’s Bridge.

It was said to have been constructed between 1911 and 1914, which was the year World War I started.

It is over a mile-long, at 6,776-feet, or 2,065-meters.

Described as a masterpiece of engineering, it has a movable section midway that is raised to allow ship and barge traffic to pass through.

There are similar movable sections on the Sault Ste. Marie International Railroad Bridge, with a swing bridge…and a vertical lift bridge.

It was said to have been built in 1887.

For perspective in the historical narrative we have been taught, the Model T Ford first came into production in 1908…

…and the Wright Brothers had their first flight at Kitty Hawk in North Carolina’s Outer Banks in 1903.

So, were we actually capable of engineering feats like these based on the technology we are taught existed that at those times?.

And what in the world was going on in 1887, the year the Sault Ste. Marie International Railroad Bridge was said to have been built?

Well, for one, Buffalo Bill took his Wild West Show…

…to Great Britain for the celebration of the Jubilee Year of Queen Victoria in 1887.

Back to Palk Bay, you can take a ferry across, in the same general location as the sunken parts of Adam’s Bridge, to Talaimannar, on Sri Lanka’s Mannar Island, and catch the train on to anywhere you want to go in Sri Lanka.

The Palk Bay and Palk Strait were named for Sir Robert Palk, an officer in the British India Company that served as the Governor of Madras between 1755 and 1763…

…during the period called Company Raj period, or Company rule in India, when the British East India Company ruled over parts of the Indian Subcontinent between 1757 and 1858…

…commencing after the 1757 Battle of Plassey, called a decisive victory over the Nawab of Bengal, Mir Jafar, after which time the Nawab ceded revenues to the what was called the “Company.”

Mir Jafar was considered the first dependent Nawab of Bengal of the British East India Company, and this was considered to be the start of British Imperialism in India, and a key step in the eventual British domination of vast areas there.

The next place I come to tracking the alignment from Jaffna, is Vellore, a city and administrative headquarters of the Vellore District in the northeastern part of the Indian state of Tamil Nadu.

It is located on the banks of the dry-looking Palar River today…

…which historically flowed from the Nandi Hills, also known as Nandidurg, an ancient hilltop fortress in Karnataka State that was at one time believed to have been impregnable…

…but was successfully stormed by the Army of Charles Cornwallis in 1791, the 1st Marquess of Cornwallis in the Third Anglo-Mysore War, a conflict in South India between the British East India Company and the Kingdom of Mysore…

…and the same General Cornwallis famous for being defeated at the Battle of Yorktown in 1781, and being forced to surrender, basically ending the American Revolutionary War.

In spite of his loss and surrender to the Americans in the Revolutionary War, Cornwallis was knighted in 1786, and in the same year became the Governor-General and Commander-in-Chief of the British Colony in India.

Nandi Hills later became a resort for British Raj officials during the hot season.

The Muthu Mandapam, or Pearl Hall, located on the banks of the Palar River…

…is the resting place of the last King of Kandy in Sri Lanka, Sri Wickrama Rajasinghe, and a place where Sri Lankans journey to in order to pay their respects to him.

He had been arrested by the British in 1815, and ended up in exile in India.

In January of 1816, he and his families were sent to Madras on the HMS Cornwallis…

…which was the same ship on which the Treaty of Nanking, or Nanjing, between the British Empire and China would be signed after China’s defeat, after the First Opium War in 1842.

The First Opium War was fought between Qing Dynasty of China and Britain between 1839 and 1842, a military engagement that started when the Chinese seized opium stocks at Canton in order to stop the opium trade, which was banned.

The British government insisted upon free trade and equality among nations and backed the merchants’ demands.

From 1757 to 1842, the Canton System served as a means for China to control trade with the west by focusing all trade in the southern port of Canton.

To counter this, the British East India Company began to grow opium in Bengal, in present-day Bangladesh, and allowed private British merchants to sell opium to Chinese smugglers for illegal sale in China.

As a result from these events in history, opium dens, establishments where opium was sold and smoked, became prevalent in many parts of the world throughout the 19th-century.

Sounds like these events were the origins of the same drug trade that plagues the world today, a means by which to keep Humanity asleep and unconscious as much as possible, and make a ton of money in the process.

The Vellore Fort is situated in the heart of Vellore…

…said to have been built by the Vijayanagara, also called the Karnata Empire, that was based in the Deccan Plateau Region of South India.

The Vellore Fort is known for its grand ramparts, wide moat, and robust masonry.

The fort’s ownership was said to have passed from the Karnata Empire to the Bijapur Sultans, to the Marathas, to the Carnatic Nawabs, and finally to the British…

…who held the fort until India gained independence in 1947, at which time the heart-wrenching Partition of India displaced 10- to 12-million people along religious lines, and created an overwhelming refugee crisis in the newly constituted independent dominions of India and Pakistan, as well as large-scale violence and death.

The first significant rebellion against British rule erupted at Vellore Fort in 1806, known as the Vellore Mutiny, or Vellore Sepoy Mutiny.

While it only lasted one day, it was the first instance of a large-scale and violent mutiny by Indian Sepoys against the British East India Company.

The Sepoys seized the Vellore Fort, and killed or wounded 200 British soldiers, but the mutiny was subdued by the end of the day by cavalry and artillery from another nearby British unit.

This pillar at Hazrath Makkaan Junction in Vellore commemorates the 1806 Vellore Mutiny.

The Jalakandeswarar Temple is a temple dedicated to Shiva in the Vellore Fort, and its construction was said to have been completed by a Karnata chieftain in 1550.

The temple has exquisite statues on its gopuram, or tower…

….richly carved stone pillars…

…and a stone-carved ceiling.

The Vainu Bappu Observatory in Kavalur in the Vellore District…

…is in what are called the Javadi Hills of the Eastern Ghats.

It is the biggest observatory in Asia, with observations said to have started here in 1968.

Its location 12-degrees north of the equator allows for the coverage of the northern and southern hemispheres, and it is the only major astronomical facility between Australia and South Africa for observing the southern objects.

On-going programs include the observations of stars, star clusters, novae, super novae, blazars, galaxies, solar system objects, and many others.

William Petrie was an officer in the British East India Company in Madras in the 1780s. An amateur astronomer, he was given the credit for making the first modern astronomical observations outside of Europe in Madras in 1786.

We are told his home observatory and instruments contributed to the first modern observatory outside of Europe, the Madras Observatory, shown here, said to have been built around 1792, with the first observations on the meridian being in 1793, said to have been designed by Michael Topping, the Chief Marine Surveyor of Fort St. George in Madras.

The Madras Observatory was described as having a single room that was 40-feet, or 12-meters, long and 20-feet, or 6-meters, wide, with a 15-foot, or 5-meter, high ceiling, as well as a granite pillar weighing 10-tons, or 9-metric tonnes, in the center of the room.

Seriously, a 10-ton granite Pillar?

Well, the granite pillar still exists in the present-day, with an engraving by those said to have erected it.

Could some kind of sand-blasting technology been used on an already existing pillar?

This massive granite pillar is found on the grounds of the present-day Regional Meteorological Centre in Chennai, what Madras is called today, and the original building of the Madras Observatory no longer exists…

…and where I read other stone slabs and broken pillars are found in a fenced-off section on its grounds.

Another observatory in South India is the Kodaikanal Solar Observatory…

…located in the Palani Hills, southwest of Vellore in Tamil Nadu State.

Founded in April of 1899, legend has it that the observatory’s 6-inch telescope was said to have been brought on foot by four men who climbed steep valleys and braved the attack of wild animals, carrying the telescope on their shoulders for almost three-months.

It is interesting to note that there are abandoned observatories dotting the landscape of the hills behind Kodaikanal.

In northern India, we are told that between 1724 and 1730, Jai Singh II, the Raja of Jaipur, oversaw the construction of five monumental stone observatories, called Jantar Mantars, across his domains.

The primary purpose of these observatories was for the study of space and time.

There is one in Delhi, an ancient city and the seat of the Mughal Empire.

It is interesting to note that the Jantar Mantar in what is now called New Delhi is surrounded by the government buildings of India, in a rather geometric-looking configuration…

…which the British were said to have built New Delhi between 1911 and 1931, after the laying of the foundation stone laid by Emperor George V of India, a title used by British Monarchs from 1876 to 1948…

…during the Delhi Durbar of 1911, an Indian imperial-style mass-assembly organized by the British at Coronation Park to mark his accession as Emperor of India.

Other Jantar Mantars are in Jaipur, a collection of nineteen architectural instruments forming the largest stone observatory in the world…

…including the world’s largest stone sundial…

…in Varanasi, India, a major religious center in India, and considered the holiest city of Hinduism and Jainism…

…in the holy city of Ujjain, with thirteen architectural astronomy instruments…

…and the Jantar Mantar of Mathura, an ancient city believed to be the homeland and birthplace of Krishna.

Vedic astronomy has ancient roots in India…

…going back thousands of years.

Yet they want us to believe the British East India Company brought the science of astronomy to India?

One more place I would like to take a look at before leaving Tamil Nadu State is its capital in modern-times, Chennai, known historically as Madras.

The British East India Company arrived in what came to be known as Madras in 1600, making it their principal settlement, and we are told, constructed Fort St. George in 1644.

…which serves today as the Secretariat and Legislative Assembly of the Tamil Nadu Government.

The British India Company was said to have come here in order to have a port close to the Malaccan Straits, the main shipping channel between the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean, and to secure its trade lines and commercial interests in the spice trade.

It is one of the most important shipping lanes in the world.

They must have succeeded in their securing their goals, because the British East India Company officer I mentioned previously, who was said to have made the first astronomical observations outside of Europe, William Petrie, was also the Governor of Prince of Wales Island in the Malaccan Strait between 1812 to 1816.

Prince of Wales Island is known as Penang Island, the main constituent island of the Malaysian state of Penang.

Apparently the British East India Company was able to take Penang from the Kedah Sultanate, and keep it.

St. Mary’s Church at Fort St. George is said to the oldest Anglican church in India, built between 1678 and 1680…

…and Elihu Yale, a British merchant, trader, and a President of the British East India Company settlement at Fort St. George, was married at St. Mary’s Church.

Elihu Yale later became a benefactor of the Collegiate School in the Colony of Connecticut, which in 1718 was renamed Yale College in his honor.

I have found the same style of architecture at universities and colleges around the world, including, but not limited to, Korea University in Seoul, Korea…

…the University of Sydney, in Australia…

…and Eton College, in Windsor, England.

The Madras Presidency, or the Presidency of Fort St. George, was an administrative subdivision of British India, and established in 1652, and of which Elihu Yale became president in 1684.

At its greatest extent, the Madras Presidency included most of southern India, including the whole of the states of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh; parts of Odisha, Kerala, and Karnataka; and the union territory of Lakshadweep, a group of islands off India’s southwestern coast.

The Madras Presidency ended with the advent of Indian independence on August 15th of 1947.

We come to Hyderabad next on the alignment, the capital and largest city of India’s Telengana State on the Deccan Plateau.

The Deccan Plateau bounded by the Eastern Ghats and the Western Ghats…

…and it is important to the note that ghats in India are also a series of steps leading down to water, like the Harishchandra Ghat in Varanasi.

This is a screenshot from a YouTube video I watched several years ago entitled “The Eastern Ghats in Journey through India”…

…showing this part of the subcontinent of India looking like Monument Valley, in Arizona near the border with Utah in the American Southwest. 

Hyderabad occupies 241-square-miles, or 625-square-kilometers along the Musi River.

This is a view of the Salar Jung Museum in Hyderabad showing masonry banks on the Musi River.

The Salar Jung Museum is described as having the largest collection of antiques belonging to a single person, said to have been sourced from Nawab Mir Yusuf Ali Khan Salar Jung III, former prime minister of the 7th Nizam, the title of the ruler of what was then the princely state of Hyderabad.

One of the most popular attractions at the museum is what is described as a 19th-century musical clock.

It has a bearded man that comes out from the enclosure exactly three minutes before every hour.

On completion of each hour, the bearded man on the left side strikes the bell as per the number of the hour, and a bearded man on the right side who strikes every second.

The Palace owned by the Nizam of Hyderabad, the Falaknuma Palace, was said to have been built in 1893, and converted into a 5-star hotel in 2010.

There are 60-rooms and 22-halls inside the Falaknuma Palace…

…as well as a large collection of the Nizam of Hyderabad’s treasures, including furniture, paintings, statues, books and manuscripts.

The official residence of the Nizams of Hyderabad was the Chowmahalla Palace, said to have been built starting in 1750.

We are told that Hyderabad is located on hilly terrain around artificial lakes, including the heart-shaped Hussain Sagar lake, located north of the city center.

The lake was said to have been built by Ibrahim Quli Qtub Shah in 1563, and the large monolithic (meaning cut from one block of stone) statue of Gautama Buddha was said to have been erected in 1992 on top of what is called Gibraltar Rock in the middle of the lake.

The Qtub Shahi tombs are located in the Ibrahim Bagh, or Garden District, near the Golconda Fort.

We are told they are the tombs and mosques were built by the various kings of the Qtub Shahi, which ruled the Golconda Sultanate of South India between 1518 and 1687.

There are seven tombs all together, built of grey granite.

I found this picture of a view of the Qtub Shahi tombs from the Golconda Fort said to date to around 1902 that brings mud flood immediately to mind.

I am sharing what I am finding in the written historical record, and I know many things happened to take down the original ancient advanced Moorish civilization and erase it from our collective memory.

Just leaving this here for consideration as to one of the ways this might have happened.

The Golconda Fort is described as a 12th-century citadel with four forts, eighty-seven bastions and numerous buildings.

It is described as an early capital of the Qtub Shahi kings.

Golconda flourished as a trade center of large diamonds, known as Golconda Diamonds.

It has produced some of the world’s most famous diamonds, including the Koh-i-Noor, one of the largest cut diamonds in the world. This is a glass replica of it…

…because it is part of the British Crown Jewels…

…and the Hope Diamond, a famous, blue-diamond that is on exhibit at the Smithsonian in Washington, DC.

After India gained independence in 1947, the Nizam of Hyderabad, Mir Osman Ali Khan, the world’s richest man of his time, declared his intention to remain independent rather than become part of the Indian Union.

The Hyderabad State Congress began to agitate against him, with the support of the Indian National Congress and Communist Party of India, and in 1948, the Indian Army invaded Hyderabad, and he ended up surrendering to the Indian Union, signing a instrument of Accession which made him a Princely Governor of Hyderabad until October 31st of 1956.

Then on November 1st of 1956, Hyderabad was split into three parts, and merged into neighboring states. Eventually, the Telengana State, of which Hyderabad is the capital, was formed on June 2nd of 2014.

One more thought before ending this post. India was called the “Jewel in the Crown” of the British Empire. and its largest, and most important, overseas possession.

Much of the British Empire was built around India, in order to provide routes to, or protection for, India.

India was prosperous and rich, in spices, silk, indigo, gold, cotton, and other products and resources.

Trade with, and eventual political dominance of large parts of India, was what provided Britain with large parts of its wealth in the 1700s through 1900s.

There were other players in the mix in India – the Jesuits, the Portuguese, the French East India Company, the Dutch East India Company – but for whatever reason, the British came out on top there…for a long time.

I think the truth of the matter is that all these players were actually working towards the same goal of taking down the Old World Order, taking its wealth, faking the historical narrative to exclude the original civilization, and establishing the conditions for what we have seen happening in the world today.

I am going to be picking up the alignment in the next post at the Ellora Caves, one of the largest, rock-cut, monastery- temple cave complexes in the world.

In the last post, I tracked the alignment from the French Southern and Antarctic Lands of the Kerguelen Islands, St. Paul Island, and Amsterdam Island, to Matara, a major city and commercial hub in the Southern Province of Sri Lanka, known historically as Ceylon.

I am picking up the alignment at Adam’s Peak, located in the southern reaches of Sri Lanka’s Central Highlands.

It is described as a tall conical mountain…

…well known for the Sri Pada, or “Sacred Footprint,” near the summit, revered as a holy site in Buddhist tradition to be the footprint of the Buddha, in Hindu tradition the footprint of Shiva or Hanuman, and in some Christian and Islamic traditions, that of Adam…or St. Thomas.

It is an important pilgrimage site.

The region along the mountain is a wildlife reserve, home for species like elephants and leopards.

The districts to the south and east of Adam’s Peak yield gemstones, for which the island of Sri Lanka is famous.

The greater part of the track leading from the base to the summit consists of thousands of steps.

The next place I am going to take a look at on this alignment is Kandy, a major city in Sri Lanka, and the last capital of the ancient Kings’ era of Sri Lanka.

The Kingdom of Kandy was said to have been founded in 1469.

This map is described to be that Sri Lanka in the 1520s, known previously as Ceylon.

In 1592, Kandy became the capital city of the last remaining independent kingdom in Ceylon after the coast regions had been conquered by the Portuguese.

From that time, the Kingdom of Kandy kept the Portuguese and Dutch East India Company at bay, but succumbed finally to British colonial rule when the kingdom was absorbed into the British Empire as a protectorate via the Kandyan Convention of 1815, an agreement signed between the British and members of the King’s court which ceded the kingdom’s territory to British rule, and the last king was imprisoned.

Ceylon was a British Protectorate until its independence in 1948, and the name of the country was changed to Sri Lanka when it became a republic in 1972.

The Kandyan Convention was signed in the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic.

Also known simply as the Temple of the Tooth…

…it houses the tooth of the Buddha, venerated as the Buddha’s only surviving relic.

It is believed that whoever holds the relic, holds the governance of the country.

The Temple of the Tooth, or Sri Dalada Maligawa, is part of the Royal Palace Complex of the former Kingdom of Kandy, located on a canal…

…extending from Kandy Lake, also known as the Kiri Muhuda, or Sea of Milk…

…an artificial lake, and said to have been built next to the Temple of the Tooth by the last King of Kandy in 1807.

After the kingdom’s downfall, the Royal Palace of Kandy became the residence for the primary British agent, and nowadays is a museum of archeology.

The Royal Audience Hall, or Magul Maduwa, was where the king met his ministers and carried out his daily administrative tasks, as well as being a center of religious and national festivities connected with the Kandyan Court.

There were at least three star forts in Sri Lanka’s interior region between Kandy and the coast.

One was called the Sinhalese Sitawaka fort, which was adjoined with the palace of the king of Sitawaka.

Both the palace and the fort were destroyed by the Portuguese.

The Ruwenalla fort was said to have been constructed first as a wooden structure by the Dutch around 1665…

…and then the British were said to have erected a stone fort on the site in 1817.

Today it is being used as a police station.

Then there was the Hanwella fort, located at the site of an ancient ferry crossing on the Kelani River.

We are told that the fort was thought to have been originally constructed by King Mayadunne of Sitawaka, who ruled between 1521 and 1581.

Then Portuguese occupied the fort in 1597 and re-built it.

The Dutch were said to have captured it, and constructed a star-shaped fort, completing the work in 1684.

Eventually the fort came under control of the British in 1786, and little evidence of the fort remains with the exception of remnants of the fortifications and the moat.

This is a rest house said to have been built by the Dutch where the fort was…

…that was even visited by the Prince of Wales, Albert Edward, in 1875, who, we are told, planted a jackfruit tree on the site to commemorate his visit to Ceylon, and the tree, and two stone seats said to have been constructed for the royal visit, are still on the site.

The jackfruit is the national fruit of Sri Lanka, and is native to that part of South Asia.

One more point I would like to make before moving on to the next place on the alignment.

Sri Lanka is one of the few places that I know of to have an acknowledged ethnic minority group called Moors.

They comprise 9.2% of the population, which is approximately a population of 1.9 million Moors in the country, with Kandy being one of their population centers.

They are mainly native speakers of the Tamil language…

…with the influence of Sinhalese…

…and Arabic words.

The Moors of Sri Lanka are predominantly followers of Islam…and are also matrilineal, in which kinship is traced, and great influence is held by, women.

This book is a study about Muslim, Sinhalese, and Tamil households in Sri Lanka.

So…how…did…that…happen according to what we are told in our narrative?!

For one thing, the ancient worldwide Moorish Civilization was matrilineal, and not patriarchal, a civilization which has been left out of the history books.

Yes, the Washitaw, also known as the Ancient Ones, are still very much here with us today..

The next place on the alignment that I would like to look at is Sigiriya.

Sigiriya is described as an ancient rock fortress near Dambula in Sri Lanka’s Central Province.

It is dominated by Lion Rock.

King Kashyapa was said to have built his palace between 477 and 495 AD, on top of Lion Rock, which he had decided to make his new capital.

There are 1,200 steps going to the top of Lion Rock, starting from where he built a gateway in the form of enormous lion paws.

It reminds me visually of the Stone of El Penol, that I found tracking an alignment in Guanape, Colombia.

This is a view of the water gardens of Sigiriya from the summit of the rock.

They are built symmetrically on an east-west axis, connected with the outer moat to the west…

….and the large artificial lake to the south of Sigiriya rock.

All the pools are interlinked using an underground conduit network fed by the lake, and connected to the moats.

The mirror wall is located in the mid-level terrace where the lions entrance is located, and was said to have been originally so highly polished that the king could see himself while he walked alongside it.

A Spiral staircase at the mirror wall…

…leads to fresco paintings depicting women that cover most of the western face of the rock, called the largest picture gallery in the world.

After all the work that King Kashyapa put into this place, we are told the capital and royal palace were abandoned after his death, and that it was used as a Buddhist monastery until the 14th-century.

Sigiriya is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is considered one of the best-preserved examples of urban planning in the world.

Jaffna is the next place on the alignment, and is the capital city of Sri Lanka’s Northern Province.

It is the administrative headquarters of the Jaffna District, on the Peninsula of the same name.

Jaffna is located 6-miles, or 9.7-kilometers, from Kandarodai, a famous emporium city and capital of Tamil kingdoms in northeastern Ceylon from classical antiquity, and the location of the ancient Buddhist monastery known as Kadurugoda Vihara.

Jaffna and the surrounding region was part Naga Nadu, and inhabited by one of the ancient tribes of Ceylon, the Nagas, generally represented as a class of super humans.

Also called Serpents of Wisdom, nagas were masters of raising serpent-like kundalini energy from the base of the spine to the third-eye. connecting with higher self in physical form…

…and masters of higher human abilities called “Siddhis.”

Jaffna was said to have been made into a colonial port town by the Portuguese around 1618, at which time they were said to have built the Jaffna fort…

…Fort Hammenheil, built in 1618, around a small island between the islands of Kayts and Karaitivu on the Jaffna Peninsula…

…the Kayts Island fort in 1629…

…the Delft Island fort is attributed to the Portuguese some time during that time period…

…and the Pooneryn Fort, just adjacent to the Jaffna Peninsula..

The forts on the Jaffna Peninsula at Kankesanthurai, Point Pedro, Pyl, Beschutter, and Elephant Pass were all completely destroyed at some point in time during colonial times.

Then the Portuguese lost Jaffna to the Dutch East India Company in 1658, the world’s most valuable company of all-time, worth $7.9-trillion.

The Dutch were said to have lost their possessions in Sri Lanka in 1796, when they were taken over by the British, after which time the British were said to have built the major roads and railways connecting Jaffna with Kandy, Colombo, and the rest of the country…

…with the Ceylon Government Railway having been founded in 1858…

…and the rail network introduced by the British Colonial government in 1864.

This is said to be a picture circa 1880 of a steam-powered train on the hill-country Colombo – Badulla line.

This is the Jaffna Railway Station today, said to have been built originally in 1902, and reconstructed in the time-frame around 2011-2013…

…due to damage it sustained during Sri Lanka’s civil war in the years between 1983 and 1995.

The Jaffna Public Library was said to have originally been built in 1933, and one of the largest libraries in Asia, with over 97,000 books and manuscripts.

Built in what was called an Indo-Saracenic style, we are told it was burned down by an organized mob in 1981.

By 2001, the rehabilitation of the original building into a new structure was complete, and new books received, though its old books and manuscripts were not replaced.

Apparently the books and manuscripts lost in the fire were irreplaceable.

I am going to end this post here, and pick up the alignment in Vellore, located in the south Indian State of Tamil Nadu.

In the last post, I tracked the alignment from the Fernando de Noronha islands of Brazil, just off the coast near Natal, and the location of what were at least ten star forts at one time; to the islands of Trindade and Martin Vaz, also part of Brazil but located 680-miles, or 1,100-kilometers, from the coast; to the islands of Tristan da Cunha, a British Overseas Territory, and the location of the world’s most isolated settlement, with ship or boat being the only way to travel in-or-out.

Next on the alignment we come to the Kerguelen Islands, also known as the Desolation Islands, and administered as part of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands, otherwise known as France’s Scattered Islands in the Indian Ocean.

The French Southern and Antarctic Lands have been an overseas territory of France since 1955.

They consist of:

–The Kerguelen Islands, volcanic islands in the southern Indian Ocean, southeast of Africa, approximately equidistant between Africa, Antarctica and Australia;

–St. Paul and Amsterdam Islands, a group to the north of Kerguelen, and we’ll be looking at both in tracking this alignment;

–the Crozet Islands, a group in the southern Indian Ocean, south of Madagascar;

–Adelie Land, the French claim on the continent of Antarctica. Adelie land, and the Adelie penguin for that matter, were named after Adele, the wife of the French explorer and naval officer Jules Dumont d’Urville who explored Antarctica, among other places in the south and west Pacific;

–The Scattered Islands, a group of dispersed islands around the coast of Madagascar, of which the principal station for these islands is on Tromelin Island.

The French Austral Lands and Seas were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site on July 5th, 2019.

The French Southern and Antarctic Lands are administered by a prefect with headquarters in Saint-Pierre on Reunion Island.

I am going to spend some time looking into the life and voyages of Jules Dumont d’Urville because I believe his story is important to understanding the historical narrative we have been taught.

Early in his naval exploration career, as a result of being in the right place at the right time on a naval hydrological survey of the Greek islands in the Aegean Sea, Dumont d’Urville was given the credit, and a knighthood in the Legion of Honor, for ultimately enabling the famous Venus de Milo marble statue to come from the Greek island of Milos to the Louvre in Paris instead of going to Constantinople.

After the Aegean Sea expedition, he planned an expedition, with another naval officer, of the Pacific Ocean, an area France had been forced out of as a result of the Napoleonic Wars.

They set out on their expedition to collect scientific and strategic information in August of 1822, on a ship named originally La Coquille, and sailed to the Falkland Islands; the coasts of Peru and Chile in South America; New Guinea; New Zealand and Australia.

The expedition carried out research in the fields of botany and insects, bringing back thousands of specimens to the Natural History Museum in Paris.

Then Dumont d’Urville departed on La Coquille, now called L’Astrolabe, or the Astrolabe, named for a navigational device, and sailed in 1826 for three-year voyage to New Zealand; Fiji; the Loyalty Islands; New Guinea; the Solomon Islands, Caroline Islands, and the Moluccas in eastern Indonesia.

In 1837, Dumont d’Urville set out yet again on the Astrolabe for the South Orkney Islands in the Southern Ocean; the Marquesas Islands; Tasmania; along the coast of Antarctica, at which time he claimed land on January 21st of 1840 for France, considered it his most significant achievement. He named it Adelie Land after his wife Adele.

He also named the Adelie penguin for his wife.

He then sailed onto New Zealand; the Torres Strait; Reunion Island; and St. Helena island, and returning to France later in 1840.

He was promoted to Rear Admiral upon his return, and he wrote a report of the expedition entitled “Voyage au Pole Sud et dans L’Oceanie sur les Corvettes Astrolabe et la Zelee 1837 – 1840,” which was published between 1841 and 1854 in 24 volumes.

An interesting side-note about Dumont d’Urville’s life was his death – he and his entire family were killed in the first ever rail disaster in France in May of 1842, called the Versailles Rail Accident, in which the train’s locomotive derailed, the wagons rolled, and the coal tender ended up at the front of the train and caught fire. This was said to be a painting of the incident.

Remains said to have been identified as his by a doctor who had been on-board the Astrolabe with him, and were interred here at the Montparnasse Cemetery in Paris.

Could this be a case of “Dead men tell no tales” as it were?

Like, perhaps, explorer Meriwether Lewis, who died of gunshot wounds in 1809?

Meriwether Lewis had returned from the Lewis & Clark Expedition in 1807; was made Governor of Louisiana Territory by Thomas Jefferson; and had made arrangements to publish his Corps of Discovery Journals.

For a point of information, he was initiated into freemasonry between 1796 and 1797, from where he was born and raised in Ablemarle County, Virginia Colony, shortly after he joined the United States Army in 1795.

Being Governor of the Louisiana Territory didn’t work too well for him for a variety of reasons, and he set out for Washington, DC, to address financial issues that had arisen as a result of denied payments of drafts he had drawn against the War Department when he was governor…and he carried with him his journals for delivery to his publisher.

He decided to go overland to Washington instead of via ship by way of New Orleans, and stayed for the night at a place called Grinder’s Stand, southwest of Nashville, Tennessee.

Gunshots were heard in the early morning hours, and he was found with multiple gunshot wounds to the head and gut.

We are told that Thomas Jefferson and some historians generally accepted Lewis’ death as a suicide. His family never accepted that it was suicide, and the matter is still debated. No one was ever charged with his murder.

Just sharing some strange deaths of famous explorers that are out there, and easy to find, in the historical narrative we have been given.

And I am quite certain there was a correlation between the ancient advanced Washitaw Empire of North America and the Louisiana Purchase.

Also, it is interesting to note there were similar naval expeditions by other countries around the same time of those of Dumont d’Urville for France.

The U. S. Exploring Expedition was an exploring and surveying expedition of the Pacific Ocean and the surrounding lands conducted by the United States between 1838 and 1842.

The expedition was described as of major importance to the growth of science in the United States, and that during the events of its occurrence, armed conflict between Pacific Islanders and the expedition was common, and dozens of natives were killed, as well as a few Americans.

It involved a squadron of four ships, with specialists on each including naturalists, botanists, a mineralogist, a taxidermist, and a philologist, which is someone who studies written and oral histories.

It is sometimes referred to as the “U. S. Ex. Ex.” or “Wilkes Expedition,” after the commanding officer, Navy Lt. Charles Wilkes.

The ships of the Wilkes Expedition departed from Hampton Roads in Virginia for the first stop the Madeira Islands off the coast of Africa on August 18th, 1838.

The routes of the expedition went something like this – all over the place.

The squadron of ships pretty much sailed together, at different rates of speed, from their first stop at Madeira, to Rio de Janeiro in Brazil; Tierra del Fuego at the southern tip of South America; Valparaiso in Chile; Callao in Peru; the islands of Tahiti, and Samoa, in the South Pacific; Sydney in Australia; Antarctica, which they arrived at and “discovered” on January 16th of 1840, just mere days before the completely different expedition (?) of Dumont d’Urville’s claimed land on Antarctica on January 21st of 1840; and then, by way of Fiji, to the Sandwich Islands (otherwise known as the Hawaiian Islands), before returning to the United States. The ships did break-off into pairs on occasion to explore different places in the same general location.

Then there were the voyages of the HMS Beagle, originally a Cherokee class 10-gun boat of the British Royal Navy, said to have set off from the Royal Dockland of Woolwich at the River Thames on May 11th of 1820.

The HMS Beagle’s first voyage was between 1826 and 1830, accompanying the larger ship, HMS Adventure, on a hydrologic survey of Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, under the overall command of the Australian Navy Captain, Phillip Parker King.

The second voyage of the HMS Beagle, between 1831 and 1832, was joined by naturalist Charles Darwin, on a second trip to South America, and then around the world.

Charles Darwin kept a diary of his experiences, and rewrote this as a book titled “Journal and Remarks,” becoming published in 1839 as “The Voyage of the Beagle.”

The third voyage of the HMS Beagle took place between 1837 and 1843, and was a third surveying voyage to Australia, stopping on the way at Tenerife in the Canary Islands; Salvador on the coast of Brazil in Bahia State; and Cape Town in South Africa. I have found all three of these places on planetary grid alignments.

In Australia, the crew surveyed Western Australia, starting in what is now Perth, to the Fitzroy River; then both shores of the Bass Strait in Australia’s southeast corner; then north to the shores of the Arafura Sea, across from Timor. Again, all of these places figure prominently on grid alignments.

In 1845, the HMS Beagle was refitted as a Coast Guard watch vessel in Essex, in the navigable waters beyond the Thames Estuary, moored in the middle of the River Roach, until oyster companies and traders petitioned to have it removed in 1851, citing the vessel was obstructing the river and its oyster beds.

The Navy List shows that on May 25th of 1851, the Beagle was renamed “Southend ‘W.V. No. 7′” at Paglesham, and sold in 1870 to be broken-up.

Just for point of reference, the Crystal Palace Exhibition took place in London’s Hyde Park between May 1st of 1851 to October 15th of 1851.

I believe the Crystal Palace Exhibition of 1851 was the official kick-off to the reset timeline of the New World Order.

I believe the history of Earth has been replaced with the history of those that took over and claimed the legacy of the original builders of civilization, and I believe all of these voyages of exploration were part of how they did it.

The earth, and all that was in it, was surveyed after the mud flood event, and before the official start of the new reset timeline in 1851, from which our new history was based on.

Back to the Kerguelen Islands, which started the side-track off into 19th-century exploration history.

The Kerguelen Islands themselves are considered an exposed part of the Kerguelen Plateau, which is considered a large igneous province, or an extremely large accumulation of igneous rocks, mostly submerged by the southern Indian Ocean.

The main island, known as Grande Terre, is 2,577 square-miles, or 6,675 kilometers-squared.

The islands were officially discovered by the French navigator Yves-Joseph de Kerguelen-Tremarec on February 12th of 1772.

Then, apparently the very next day, a member of the expedition named Charles de Boisguehenneuc, landed on the island, and claimed it for the French Crown.

The island was visited regularly by whalers and sealers after its discovery, and between the 18th- and 20th-century, the regions whales and seals were hunted to the point of near extinction.

The islands were not completely surveyed until 1840 during the Ross Expedition, a voyage of scientific exploration of the Antarctic between 1839 and 1843.

This is said to be an engraving from the Ross Expedition of Christmas Harbor at Kerguelen Island, from an elevation 600-feet, or 183-meters.

The main base, or so-called capital of the Kerguelen Islands, is at Port-aux-Francais, on the eastern shore of Grande Terre.

This is the best known feature of the Kerguelen Islands, known as the Arch of Kerguelen at Port Christmas, where there was formerly a geomagnetic station.

Apparently the Arch of Kerguelen actually looked like an arch at one time.

Also, what looks to be a version of the same land feature in the Kerguelen islands, called St. Anne’s Finger on the Gallieni Peninsula in the Baie Larose, on the top left, is found in the Revillagigedo Islands, in the Pacific Ocean near the west coast of Mexico, and part of its Colima Province, on the top right; and on the bottom left, a feature found in the Galapagos Islands, off the coast of Ecuador on the northwestern side of South America; and on the bottom right, one is also found near Yalta on the Crimean Peninsula in the Black Sea.

Mount Ross is the highest point of Kerguelen Island, at 6,069-feet, or 1,850- meters, also on the Gallieni Peninsula.

Other land features of Kerguelen Island include Mounts Simoun and Diane.

George Biddell Airy, of Great Britain’s Royal Observatory, organized and equipped five expeditions to different parts of the world, of which three were sent to the Kerguelen Islands, to observe the 1874 Transit of Venus.

Between 1874 and 1875, altogether British, German, and United States expeditions visited Kerguelen to observe the Transit of Venus.

The 1874 Transit of Venus took place on December 9th of that year, and was the first of the pair of Venus Transits which took place in the 19th-century, the second one being in 1882.

A transit of Venus takes place across the sun when the planet Venus passes directly between the sun and a superior planet, becoming visible against the solar disk.

Interestingly, this is a diagram of the orbit of Venus as seen from Earth.

There is a geomagnetic station at Cap Ratmanoff in the present-day, the easternmost point of the Kerguelen Islands.

So, even today, the principal activities on the islands focus on scientific research, mostly earth sciences and biology, as well as a French satellite- and rocket-tracking lodging and station near Port-aux-Francais…

…and a small fleet of fishing vessels that are owned out of Reunion Island and licensed to fish in this exclusive economic zone.

Next on the alignment, we come to Ile St-Paul, or St. Paul Island…

…part of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands mentioned previously.

We are told in 1780, the thin stretch of rock that used to close off the crater active volcano it sits on top of collapsed, admitting water through a 330-foot, or 100-meter, channel. The entrance is shallow, allowing only small ships and boats to enter.

For comparison in appearance, on the left is the entrance to what is called the “Bassin du Cratere” or “Lac Cratere,” or in English “Crater Lake” on Ile Saint-Paul in the South Indian Ocean, compared with what is found on the Hawaiian Island of Molokai, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

While the Portuguese were first credited with discovering the island in 1559, and the Dutch with sighting it in 1618, the French laid claim to it in 1842, apparently when a group of fisherman from Reunion Island that were interested in setting-up a fishery on Saint-Paul, pressed the Governor of Reunion to take possession of Saint-Paul, as well as Amsterdam Island, which we will be coming to next on the alignment.

Apparently, he did so, by official decree, on June 8th of 1843.

All fishery activities were abandoned in 1853, however, when the French government renounced its possession of the two islands.

The HMS Megaera, a British troop transport, was wrecked on the Ile Saint-Paul in 1871, and it took approximately 3-months to rescue all 400 persons that were on board.

This is said to be a print of the Ile Saint-Paul from that time period in 1871.

Then, in 1892, the crew of the French ship Bourdonnais again took possession for the French government of Saint-Paul and Amsterdam Islands.

These days, the main human activity on Ile Saint-Paul is a scientific research cabin used for scientific or ecological short campaigns only, and no permanent human population.

Other activity involves its importance as a seabird breeding site.

The next place we come to on the alignment I am tracking is the Ile Amsterdam, or Amsterdam Island, another one of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands claimed by France in 1892.

Amsterdam Island is roughly equidistant from the land masses of Madagascar, Australia, and Antarctica.

While a Spanish explorer by the name of Juan Sebastian de Elcano was said to have sighted the island in 1522, when he was completing the first circumnavigation of the world after Magellan’s death in the Phillippines in 1522…

…Amsterdam Island was said to have gotten its name over one-hundred years later…

…in 1633, from a Dutch sea captain, Anthony van Diemen who named it after his ship, Nieuw Amsterdam, which was named after the Dutch settlement of Nieuw Amsterdam (which later became New York City).

Amsterdam Island was a stop for the Macartney Mission in 1793, the first British diplomatic mission to China.

The goals of the Macartney Mission were to: 1) Open new ports for British trade in China; 2) the establishment of a permanent embassy in what was then called Peking, now Beijing; 3) the cession of a small island off the coast of China for Britain’s use; and 4) the relaxation of trade restrictions on British merchants in Canton in southern China.

While it was said to have failed to achieve its initial objectives, the Macartney Mission was noted for having brought back extensive cultural, political, and geographical observations that its participants recorded.

After having been claimed for France in 1892, the islands were part of the French Colony of Madagascar from 1924 until August 6th of 1955, when the French Southern and Antarctic Lands were formed.

The only settlement on Amsterdam Island is a seasonal research station, which studies biology, meteorology, and geomagnetics. 

Phylica Arbora trees grow on Amsterdam Island.

It was called the “Great Forest,” covering the lowlands of the island, until most of the trees were cleared by fires set by sealers around 1825.

Here is a photograph of Lee Waves taken on Amsterdam Island.  Lee Waves are atmospheric stationary waves, and are a form of internal gravity waves.  

It definitely seems as though the location of the islands I have been tracking in the Atlantic and South Indian Oceans are in a favorable location with regards to: 1) Trade Winds, or the permanent east-to-west prevailing winds that flow in the earth’s equatorial region between 30-degrees north and 30-degrees south, and which allowed trade routes to become established across the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, making various places on earth easy or difficult to access…

…and 2) on the Earth’s ocean currents, which are like giant conveyor belts flowing through the ocean and moving huge amounts of water all of the time, and which look very similar to the depiction of the direction of the trade winds.

Edmond Halley was not only an astronomer, he was a geophysicist, mathematician, meteorologist and physicist.

This is a map he made in 1686 of the earth’s trade winds.

Note the place-names of his time.

The next stop on the alignment I am tracking is Matara, a major commercial hub and city in Sri Lanka’s Southern Province.

Matara historically is part of an area that was known as the Kingdom, or Principality, of Rohana, or Ruhunu, one of the three kingdoms of what is known in the present-day as Sri Lanka, and known in the past as Ceylon.

The Buddhist temple in the middle of town was built by the ancient kings, and is on the site of a fig tree sacred to, and protected by, the Buddhists who live here.

In the 16th- through 18th-centuries, Matara was ruled by the Portuguese, and Dutch, respectively.

The Portuguese rule of Matara was said to have been ruthless, during which time they were said to have plundered and ransacked buildings, store-houses and shrines.

The Dutch were said to have captured Matara from the Portuguese in 1640.

There is a section of Matara called “Fort,” between the ocean and the Nilwala River.

The Matara fort was said to have been built by the Portuguese in 1560, and largely rebuilt by the Dutch in 1640, an illustration of which is pictured on the left, and on the right, is all that remains of the Matara fort today, though it is the location of the administrative center of the entire Matara District.

Directly across the Nilwala River from the remains of the Matara Fort is what is actually called “Star Fort Matara.”

The Dutch were said to have built the Star Fort Matara between 1761 and 1765 to protect the main fort from attacks originating from the river.

At the top of the entrance to the star fort, the “VOC” symbol of the Dutch East India Company is prominently and permanently engraved.

It is far easier to add engravings than build a structure of this nature and size.

I typically find star forts in pairs and clusters on alignments all over the Earth, and believe they were not military in nature as we have been taught. I think they functioned as part of the electrical circuitry of the earth’s worldwide grid system.

One of the definitions of the word battery is “a device that produces electricity that may have several primary or secondary cells arranged in parallel or series, as well as a battery source of energy which provides a push, or a voltage, of energy to get the current flowing in a circuit.”

The Matara Clock Tower is situated on the rampart of the Matara Fort in the Fort section of Matara…

…and was said to have been built by the Dutch in 1765.

This is one of the massive gates of the Matara Fort.

What is called the “Old Nupe Market” or “Old Dutch Market” in Matara was said to have been built by the Dutch in 1784.

Today it is part of the Ruhunu Cultural Center.

I am interested in what looks like a water tower made of stone pictured behind the front of the market. I am having a hard time finding information about it.

I will just leave this picture here of it from the Google Earth street-view.

I am drawn to look into in an area right next to Matara, now called Dondra, but was historically called Devinuwara or Dewundara, an historic temple-port town. It is said to mean “Gods City” or “Gods port” in the Sinhalese language

And indeed, one of the most celebrated religious sites of the island, with a thousand Hindu and Buddhist statues at one time, and the ruins of Hindu shrines and a Buddhist temple.

Sri Lanka’s tallest lighthouse is located here.

It is 161-feet, or 49-meters, tall, and said to have been designed and built by two English engineers starting in 1887; first lit in 1889; and opened in 1890.

This picture was said to have been taken circa 1890.

Now, let’s just take a picture of ourselves beside the lighthouse, and no one will know the difference!

Not only that, we are told the granite used in its construction was said to have come from Scotland and Cornwall in England; and the bricks and steel from England.

I am going to end this post here, and pick up the alignment at Adam’s Peak in Sri Lanka in the next post.
