Are you an alien abductee?

52 indicators of UFO encounters or abduction by aliens

Indicators compiled by Melinda Leslie, edited by Mark Williams

Encounter illustration by Steve Neill

Many millions of people, it seems, have had encounters with alien beings. Many of those people do not realize that they are having these experiences because of suppressed memories. Their awareness is limited to an occasional paranormal incident that seems to confuse them more than anything else. Some people are not ready to know for sure, others feel a deep need to know if they are involved with the beings. If you are in the later group, read on.

This is a list of 52 common indicators shared by most UFO abductees. It is based on known research on the subject and on personal findings. It has been compiled to help you determine if you are an abductee. Of course there may be other explanations for these occurrences and this is in no way an absolute means of knowing if you are an abductee. If you or someone you know does fit many of these traits listed here, PLEASE seek the help of a qualified researcher of therapist. This list is not in any particular order.

Ten Amazing Subterranean Structures from the Ancient World.

Ten Amazing Subterranean Structures from the Ancient World

From ancient cisterns and water systems to mysterious caves, underground crypts, subterranean temples and even entire cities built beneath the earth, what our ancient ancestors have achieved is both mind-boggling and breathtaking. Here we feature ten incredible ancient sites that can be found underground. 

The amazing subterranean Basilica Cistern

Hidden beneath the city of Istanbul, Turkey, are hundreds of ancient cisterns that stored and supplied water to its inhabitants in the ancient past. The largest of these is the Basilica Cistern. So spectacular is the cistern that one could easily mistake it for a sacred subterranean temple. The Cistern is located just 150m southwest of the famous Haghia Sophia, and was built by the Byzantine emperor, Justinian I, in A.D. 532. It is 138 m in length and 64.6 m in width, covering an area of almost 1,000 square metres. This cistern is capable of holding up to 80,000 cubic metres of water. An incredible work effort went into its construction, with 336 marble columns supporting the structure. It is said that the majority of these columns were recycled from older buildings (a process known as ‘spoliation’), possibly brought to what was then Constantinople from the various parts of the Byzantine Empire, as well as those used for the construction of the Hagia Sophia. Perhaps the most iconic example of spoliation is the re-use of the heads of Medusa as the bases of two columns located in the northwest corner of the cistern. According to tradition, the heads were oriented sideways and inverted to counter the power of Medusa’s deadly gaze.

The mysterious shell grotto of Margate

Thirty-five miles north of Dover is the English town of Margate in Kent - a coastal town with 57,000 inhabitants and a proud maritime history. What makes Margate special is the presence of a mysterious grotto, which has come to be known as the ‘Shell Grotto of Margate’. In 1835, the local school principal, James Newlove, wanted to build a duck pond in his garden. While digging, his shovel disappeared into an opening underneath a displaced capstone. He lowered his son Joshua on a rope to retrieve the item. Upon returning the boy spoke of tunnels full of shell decorations. Excavations revealed a spectacular grotto covered by more than 4.6 million seashells, spread in a mosaic over 600 m2. Since the discovery in 1835, people have speculated about the true meaning of this place. What makes the shell grotto of Margate so mysterious is that there is nothing known about it. We do not know when the grotto was built, by whom and for what purpose.

Derinkuyu and the underground cities of Cappadocia

The region of Cappadocia in central Turkey is home to one of the most spectacular landscapes in the world – deep valleys and soaring rock formations dotted with homes, chapels, tombs, temples and entire subterranean cities harmoniously carved into the natural landforms. One hundred square miles with more than 200 underground villages and tunnel towns complete with hidden passages, secret rooms and ancient temples and a remarkably storied history of each new civilisation building on the work of the last, make Cappadocia one of the world's most striking and largest cave-dwelling regions of the world. But nowhere else is the ingeniousness of the ancient architecture more visible than in the nearby subterranean city of Derinkuyu. Derinkuyu is eleven levels deep, has 600 entrances, many miles of tunnels connecting it to other underground cities, and can accommodate thousands of people. It is truly an underground city, with areas for sleeping, stables for livestock, wells, water tanks, pits for cooking, ventilation shafts, communal rooms, bathrooms, and tombs. And Derinkuyu is not alone. More than forty complete underground cities have been discovered in the Cappadocia, many of them connecting to each other via tunnel.

Qanat Firaun, the most spectacular underground aqueduct of the ancient world 

The Qanat Firaun, otherwise known as the Gadara Aqueduct, is an ancient aqueduct that was built to supply water to the Roman-Hellenistic Decapolis, which now lie in present-day Syria and Jordan. Although the Arabic name ‘Qanat Firaun’ means ‘Canal of the Pharaohs’, the massive canal, which demonstrates incredible engineering abilities, was not Egyptian but Imperial Roman, most likely influenced by the Persians. The 170-kilometre pipeline is not only the world’s longest underground aqueduct of the antiquity, it is also the most complex, and represents a colossal work of hydro- engineering. The construction of the aqueduct demonstrates remarkable precision. The gradient of the tunnel was found to be 0.3 per thousand, meaning that it dropped only 30 centimetres per kilometre – an amazingly shallow angle of decent. Along the main road of Gadara, archaeologists found basal pressure piles which suggested a siphon structure in order to supply the western outskirts of the city with fresh water, supposedly from sources 100 kilometres away. By the time work ceased on the aqueduct, workers had excavated over 600,000 cubic metres of limestone, comparable to more than a full quarter of the Great Pyramid’s total volume.

The cult centre and underground world of Chavín de Huántar 

Chavín de Huántar is an archaeological site located in the Ancash region of Peru, 250 km north of the country’s capital, Lima. It is located at over 3000 m above the sea level and is sandwiched between the desert coast to its west and the tropical Amazonian lowlands to its east. While carbon dating suggests that the site was occupied at least since 3000 B.C., it was around 1500 B.C. that Chavín developed into a sacred site. Chavín became a ceremonial and pilgrimage centre for the religious world of the Andes. One of the most interesting aspects of this site is its subterranean chambers. It is the carvings and the sculptures of these chambers that are its most impressive features. For instance, there is the Lanzon, a prism-shaped block of carved granite that is 4.5m in height. This block of granite begins with a broad feline head, and tapers down to a point stuck into the ground. This feline motif can also be seen in the carvings along the outer stone walls of the Castillo sector (the southern wing of the temple). These carvings depict gargoyles (known as Cabeza Clavos), which are supposed to be the temple’s guardians. Apart from feline features, the gargoyles are said to have bird-like characteristics as well. This iconography may help us to gain a better understanding of the cult that was practised at Chavín.

The incredible sound effects of Malta’s Hypogeum Hal Saflieni 

The Hypogeum of Hal Saflieni in Malta is a UNESCO World Heritage Site which is believed to be the oldest prehistoric underground temple in the world. The subterranean structure is shrouded in mystery, from the discovery of elongated skulls to stories of paranormal phenomena. But the characteristic that has been attracting experts from around the globe is the unique acoustic properties found within the underground chambers of the Hypogeum. Although not known for certain, it is believed that the hypogeum was originally used as a sanctuary, possibly for an oracle. It is for this reason that a unique chamber carved out of solid limestone and demonstrating incredible acoustic properties has been called ‘the Oracle Chamber’. According to William Arthur Griffiths, who wrote ‘Malta and its Recently Discovered Prehistoric Temples’, a word spoken in the Oracle room is “magnified a hundredfold and is audible throughout the entire structure. The effect upon the credulous can be imagined when the oracle spoke and the words came thundering forth through the dark and mysterious place with terrifying impressiveness."

Rome’s Labyrinth of Subterranean Tunnels

As tourists wonder the streets of Rome and flock to the incredible sites of the Colosseum and Roman Forum, few of them realise that beneath their feet lies something even more ancient – a maze of subterranean tunnels and quarries that date back to the very beginning of this ancient city.

The tunnels first began as quarries as the ancient Romans mined rock to build their city, which later expanded over the tunnels. Then, once the quarrying ended, people began using the underground labyrinth as catacombs, for mushroom farming and as an unofficial sewer system. During World War II, people used the tunnels as bomb shelters. "Hundreds of kilometres of catacombs run underneath the town and its outskirts," says Adriano Morabito, president of the association Roma Sotterranea (Underground Rome). "Some of the networks are well known and open to visitors, while others are still scarcely explored. Probably there are a number of lost catacombs, too." 

The underground caves of Nottingham

Below the streets of Nottingham, England, nearly 500 man-made caves are cut into the natural sandstone. Over the centuries, they have been used for a vast array of purposes, including dungeons, beer cellars, cess-pits, tanneries, malt-kilns, houses, wine cellars, tunnels, summer- houses, air-raid shelters, sand mines, and jails – most famously the one said to have held Robin Hood. The earliest written record of Nottingham’s caves comes from a Welsh monk called Asser who when writing about Nottingham in 868 referred to the town as Tig Guocobauc, meaning house or place of caves in British. In 1067, the Normans arrived in the region and built a castle on an outcrop of sandstone. The Norman’s built their own town around the castle with streets radiating out from it towards what is now the market square in modern day Nottingham. The exposed cliff of the sandstone outcrop made this an obvious place for the early citizens of Nottingham to make their home. Records from visitors to Nottingham during the 1600s suggest that the occupants of these cave houses were generally poor and the caves were known as pauper holes. Throughout the medieval period Nottingham continued to grow and prosper becoming a centre for trades such as wool manufacture, tanning, alabaster carving and pottery production. A number of these activities were undertaken in Nottingham’s caves. From the 1800s new caves were cut and existing ones extended as Nottingham’s industries and their need for storage space grew. Unfortunately, redevelopment of Nottingham’s city centre from the late 19th century onwards has meant that many of Nottingham’s caves have been lost. 

The Longyou Caves

Located near the village of Shiyan Beicun in Zhejiang province, China, lies the Longyou caves - an extensive, magnificent and rare ancient underground world considered in China as ‘the ninth wonder of the ancient world’. The Longyou grottoes, which are thought to date back at least 2,000 years, represent one of the largest underground excavations of ancient times and are an enduring mystery that have perplexed experts from every discipline that has examined them. Scientists from around the world in the fields of archaeology, architecture, engineering, and geology have absolutely no idea how they were built, by whom, and why. First discovered in 1992 by a local villager, 36 grottoes have now been discovered covering a massive 30,000 square metres. Carved into solid siltstone, each grotto descends around 30 metres underground and contains stone rooms, bridges, gutters and pools. There are pillars evenly distributed throughout the caves which are supporting the ceiling, and the walls, ceiling and stone columns are uniformly decorated with chisel marks in a series of parallel lines. Only one of the caves has been opened for tourism, chosen because of the stone carvings found inside which depict a horse, fish and bird. The Longyou caves truly are an enigma that are still unexplained despite more than two decades of research.

The ancient catacombs of Malta 

The Paleochristian heritage of the Maltese Islands rates as the fourth most important cluster of such monuments in the Mediterranean Region following those of the Italy, Israel and of the Maghreb, of which its most prominent feature is its extensive concentration of subterranean burial grounds. The catacombs of Malta have been described by UNESCO as “excellent documents of the changing cultural, artistic and social climates of the Mediterranean world in the centuries going from the 3rd to the Centuries AD”. In a period covering the mid-third to the early seventh century AD, burial grounds developed in Malta from a tradition of simple rock-cut tombs of the Phoenician and Hellenistic eras (700 BC - 100 AD). One remarkable feature of the Maltese catacombs is the co- mingling of religious rites, which includes clear references to Christianity, pagan practices and Judaism, all within the same locality. This reflects the co-habitation of these different cultures within Late Roman society. According to UNESCO, “this mixed feature of the Maltese catacombs is rarely equalled anywhere else in the Mediterranean.”

The American Babylonianism Introduction.

The American Babylonianism Introduction

The Statue of Liberty has become the most cherished symbol of the United States of America. What we were NOT taught in school were the truly significant facts regarding the true nature of the Statue. Those pertinent facts that remain largely unknown revolve around the true history of the Statue’s inception as well as the meaning and significance behind the statue.

French sculptor, Frederic Bartholdi, designed the Statue of Liberty. Bartholdi did not originate the concept of the statue. The idea for creating a statue of liberty and freedom was first proposed by another Frenchman by the name of Edward Laboulaye. It was Laboulaye’s idea and determination during the American Civil War that carried the idea from a simple notion to an actual project.

Laboulaye, a French Freemason proposed the idea of a giant statue replicating a goddess that the Masonic movement idolized. Laboulaye proceeded to raise the financial support and commission Bartholdi to provide the sculpture of this goddess of illumination from ancient times.

What deity was this? It was the goddess known by various names. Laboulaye and his fellow Freemason, sculptor Bartholdi referred to her as “Libertas” but she was also an early adoption by Romans of the Babylonian goddess Ishtar. We’ll need to follow the research on the goddess connections to fully understand this statue’s meaning.

Roman goddess Libertas

Libertas was the name of an ancient Roman goddess adopted by the Romans perhaps as early as the 5th century BC and certainly by the 4th Century BC. She was referred to as the goddess of personal freedom and liberty. In fact Libertas meant freedom. So liberty means freedom. The 2 names describe the one concept we call freedom. Liberty = Freedom and Freedom = Liberty.

This goddess was the goddess of freedom because she promoted the ideals for the personal freedom to do anything that felt good. She was called the matron goddess of prostitution because she promoted sexual freedom. Indeed, she had invented the concept. Slaves considered her their goddess in the hopes of winning their freedom.

Many women who gained freedom later turned to prostitution to survive and thereby retained Libertas as their goddess, especially if they became priestesses in the Libertas cult. Libertas was also a goddess of war in order to fight for freedom. She was also referred at times as the goddess of victory because freedom must have victory in order to survive. This goddess was also the goddess of immigrants.

The whole idea of immigration connoted the idea of freedom. Her popularity was also unique because of her unique doctrine of hearing personal prayers. This unique doctrine was something that most of the pagan deity doctrines were not disposed towards.

Left: Roman goddess Libertas

We know that this goddess existed because of the records left behind to us. We have the ancient writings of Cicero who writes of this goddess and her Temple on the Aventine Way in Rome. She was depicted on some Roman coins as wearing a freedom cap and having a wreath along with a spear or sometimes a sword.

Such coin images were not the only depictions. Sometimes she was well robed and at other times seductively unclothed in both sculptures and paintings. We know of Libertas being referred to as the Mother of Harlots by the famous Roman historian (and senator) Cicero’s writings. Cicero indicates that she was also a very early goddess of the Greeks even before early Roman civilization developed.

Upon further investigation we find that the Greeks had acquired knowledge of this being from previous empires in the Middle East and Egypt. This goddess was called Ashtoreth in Hebrew and in the Old Testament’s Greek version (the Septuagint).

Ashtoreth becomes transliterated into the Greek as Astarte, which became the early Greek name for the goddess until it was later changed to Aphrodite. The Hebrew term Ashtoreth was itself a transliteration from the Babylonian dialect (Akkadian) term of Ishtar.

Ishtar in the most ancient of times was also referred to by the Sumerian dialect as Inanna or Ninanna meaning the Queen of Heaven or Lady of Heaven. In Canaan this deity was called Ashtaroth. The Hittites called her Shaushka. The Phoenicians on Cypress initially referred to her as Astarte.

Isis was the name the Egyptians gave to her. This is how the goddess became introduced to the earliest Greeks. We know this transformation in part due to the written texts found by archaeologists plus from studying the character traits and descriptions. For instance all these deities were actually just one goddess and she was associated with the planet Venus.

Most had phonetic language roots in the transliterating aspects of the name Ishtar and this remained so until the Greeks changed the name to Aphrodite. Later the Romans referred to her in the Latin, initially as Libertas and later as Venus when they accepted more than just the Liberty doctrines.

ISHTAR: Goddess of Liberty and Personal Freedom

Ishtar was introduced to the Greeks as Astarte through the Phoenicians. We can see that the lineage of the Greek and Roman goddess of the planet Venus goes all the way back to ancient Babylon of around 3,000 BC.

Apparently the Greeks (and later the Romans) chose to initially honor only one portion of Ishtar’s character and doctrines that appealed to them in those very early years before they established empires. Ishtar’s doctrine of personal freedom was what really impressed both the Greeks and the Romans. They therefore chose to worship just that aspect of her character.

As time passed, the succeeding generations of Greeks found the other Ishtar doctrines to be appealing and incorporated her into their pantheon of deities as Astarte or Aphrodite. Later still, the Romans did the same and referred to her as Venus.

It seems that the allure of Ishtar was her doctrine of holy sex or salvation by holy sexual relations with a temple priestess or priest as a means of purification and holiness.

Of course, this entailed paying the priestess or priest and thus it was officially sanctioned and therefore “holy” prostitution. Ishtar introduced that whole concept to the human race.

This is why she was referred to as the Mother of Harlots. Harlots had been deemed to be social outcasts so she was also referred to as the Mother of exiles.

This was later equated with the idea of immigration. Naturally then Ishtar (a.k.a.– Libertas) was known as the Mother of Harlots, the Mother of Exiles and the Mother of immigrants throughout not only Babylon and Babylonia but also later Assyria, Egypt, Greece and Rome.

What was Ishtar’s legacy in Babylon? She was the chief goddess of Babylon and all of Babylonia. There was no other goddess more honored than she. She was equated to have nearly the same power as the chief god of Babylon, the sun god Utu, also known as Shamesh. In later years, the chief male deities would flip-flop in popularity.

The most famous and prominent during the times of Israel’s nationhood was “Baal.” [Baal was also called Marduk/Mardok/Merodach/Bel] Baal was identified with the planet Mars and was called the god of War. His name meant “Lord of the air” for his superior powers and the supremacy of the air. It was claimed that he as well as Ishtar and all the other deities “flew” among and from the “stars in heaven.”

Ishtar was a multi-faceted deity. She was first and foremost endeared to the hearts and minds of Babylonians because of her primary dedication to Freedom and Liberty. She was also considered the Mother of Prostitution or Harlotry…and it was considered “holy.”

Why? Ishtar introduced the concept of removal of sins by the practice of the sinner engaging in a “holy” rite of sexual relations with a priestess or priest.

This action would involve the payment of money to the priestess or priest as part of the cleansing process. It was an offering of thanksgiving for the purification. This is the very first instance of Prostitution in human history.

Ishtar was also known as the goddess of war because she fights for freedom and liberty. She was also known as the goddess of victory because there is no freedom without victory. She was also known as the goddess of love because of her sexuality and her promotion of all types of sexual perversion in the name of freedom. Her motto was “if it feels good, do it.”

Didn’t we hear that same idea as a theme song during the 1960s? She was also the goddess of the planet Venus. She was a goddess who “flew among the stars” and so therefore was called the Queen of Heaven or Lady of Heaven.

Zecharia Sitchin, in his book “Divine Encounters” describes another significant role for Ishtar in Babylonia/Sumer. [Note: the earliest Babylonians did not call themselves Babylonians nor their land Babylon. They called their land Sumer and they are referred to as Sumerians.]

Now, Sitchin is one of only a handful of scholars who has been able to learn and translate the cuneiform tablet writings of the Sumerians/Babylonians. He has written numerous books detailing various aspects of the culture and writings of Sumer.

In his book “Divine Encounters” he describes a significant role that Ishtar held for the Sumerians. On pages 174 through 176 he describes the annual ritual in which the King of Sumer must come to the special chamber temple of Ishtar to engage in sexual relations with her for one night of passion.

If during the night she is displeased with the King in anyway she kills him and a new candidate is selected to undergo another ritual initiation of one night passion. He must perform satisfactorily. This process was to continue until Ishtar accepted a candidate who met with her satisfaction.

If the king or candidate found acceptance he would appear the following morning to the expectant crowds outside the temple palace to show that he had gained the favor of the goddess to rule for one more year. Such acceptance also meant that the nation would have a good year of agricultural harvests.

Sitchin also notes that the Biblical references to “daughter of Babylon” always refers to Ishtar of Babylon. She was a Mother of Harlots and also a daughter of Babylon.

This seems like a dichotomy of sorts but Ishtar was a daughter of the original founding god of Babylon known as “Anu” who was the ruler of the planet called “Nibiru.” Nibiru was an additional planet in our solar system that circled the earth every 3,600 years, according to the royal records of Babylon.

Sitchin has been roundly ridiculed by scientists for proposing that this notion of Nibiru could actually exist. However on June 30, 1999 a scientist, David Stevenson from California Institute of Technology published a paper stating that “interstellar planets” (which is what a “Nibiru” would be called) is certainly a theoretical possibility and should not be dismissed.

In the CNN/Reuters News story the text mentions that Stevenson is not alone and that others have theorized that there may be others planets roaming interstellar space that came from our solar system.

Sitchin is also a noted Dead Sea Scrolls scholar. He served in the original investigative group attempting to repair the damaged scrolls. He is an extraordinarily gifted scholar. [See Divine Encounters, Published by Avon Books, NY. NY., 1995; ISBN: 0-380-78076-3]

Now this ritual between Ishtar and the king or king candidate is what the Biblical prophecies are referring to when it talks about the Harlot having relations with the “kings of the earth.”

In other words, in the prophecies, it is referring to Ishtar approving the rule of the kings because they have pleased her and did as she commanded. See Revelation 17:1-2, 4-5 and also 18: 3, 9 and 19:2. See also: Isaiah 47:1-15; Jeremiah 51:7.

It also means that the relationship is a two-way street. Ishtar gives to the kings the necessities to maintain authority and control. In return, the kings of course swear allegiance to Ishtar and provide sacrifices for her. Revelation provides a symbolic similarity between the ancient historical aspect and a future relationship between a future Babylon and the rest of the nations.

Super-power Babylon acts just like an Ishtar and engages in prostitution with the rest of the nations. The context is all with regards to money and materialism. See Revelation 18:1-24 and note how the overall theme revolves around money and material things.

Connecting Ishtar to the Statue of Liberty

The Statue of Liberty was a Masonic concept conceived from within Freemasonry. The chief promoter and fundraiser for the project was Edward Laboulaye and he collaborated with the sculptor Frederic Bartholdi to develop a statue of Masonic enlightenment.

The statue was developed from within the highest doctrines of Freemasonry. This “enlightenment” took its form in various symbols found in the sculpture itself.

#1. The Crown of 7 Spikes:

This symbol was to represent the enlightenment of the Babylonian sun god Shamesh/Utu. The idea was that this sun god’s occultic illumination could be focused by each of the 7 spikes of the crown. Each spike would flash this occultic enlightenment to each of the 7 “horas” or large landmasses of the world.

In other words, the each spike would flash occultic enlightenment to a continent on planet earth. Each of the 7 spikes would then be representative of one of the 7 large landmasses or continents of the world.

#2. The Tablets:

A common misconception is that the tablets represent the 10 Commandments that God gave to Moses. This is not true. The tablets are engraved only with the Roman numerals standing for July 4th, 1776.

According to the preeminent Statue Historian, Marvin Trachtenberg in his book “The Statue of Liberty” the tablets represented a generic notion of the concept of law. This should not be confused with the Laws of Moses.

Freemasonry gives lip service to Judaism, Christianity and Islam as law-giving religions but Freemasonry tries to synthesize all religions into one central focus…the idea of “law” in general. Hence the tablets being held by the Statue of Liberty carry that general meaning.

#3. The Robe:

In the original planning, the Statue of Liberty was designed in the initial stages to be in color. She was to be wearing the royal robes of scarlet and purple.

It became obvious that for reasons of monetary purposes the statue must be made from copper. The use of copper precluded the use of any color schemes. Thus the original plans for scarlet and purple robes were abandoned.

#4. The Torch:

This item was originally designed to be a golden cup filled with the wine of freedom. This golden cup remained in the planning and was actually made.

However, before completion and shipping of the entire statue, the New York Port authorities asked if there could be some sort of modification to allow for an eternal flame or light to be designed into the statue so that ships could use her as a night time navigational aid. Bartholdi consented to make modifications to the basic cup design to allow for a natural gas flame to be utilized.

The torch we see today is actually the same type of cup design used in ancient times for drinking wine. It featured a handle for the cup at the bottom and the handle looked much like a stick. The golden aspect itself was altered again to conform to the needs of the natural gas flame.

The actual, original golden cup was later sold by the project to the Czar of Russia, Czar Nicholas. In 1917 during the Russian revolution the Communist government took possession of it. The cup has remained in Russian hands but in 1997 was reportedly offered for sale by the Russian government to help pay off Russia’s foreign debts. This author has not been able to determine whether or not the cup was actually sold or not. It is only known that the cup is still in existence.

#5. “Mother of Exiles” 

“Mother of Exiles” is a key term in the poem by Emma Lazarus. In her famous poem about the statue, (now etched into the base of the statue) Lazarus refers to the woman as “The Mother of Exiles”. The poem has forever indelibly linked the statue to immigrants from around the world.

The statue is the patron “saint” of immigrants everywhere. Oddly enough, the Babylonian goddess Ishtar was also the patron goddess of immigrants in Babylon because as a goddess of personal freedom, she brought hope to immigrants seeking to make a better life for themselves in Babylon.

So too for this “Mother of Exiles”. In fact, if we try to transliterate the English term “Mother of Exiles” into the Greek… Mother as a word has similar phonetic sounds. Doing the same with “exiles” from English into Koine-Greek, the Koine-Greek listener would link it to a similar Greek word that connoted deep inhalation of air or “heavy breathing.”

This is tied into the Greek word “epithumia” which in English is normally translated as “lust” but the literal meaning in Koine-Greek meant literally “heavy breathing” and was connoted with desire. Now this terminology is then linked to the word “Porneoh” from which we get the word Pornography. Porneoh=lust fulfillment by sexual relations in exchange for money… which again was the main claim to fame for Ishtar… holy sexual prostitution.

Ishtar worship is the very first instance of prostitution in human history and it was deemed “holy!” Now, this may indeed just be an interesting coincidence but remember Revelation 17:5 where the woman called Mystery Babylon is referred to as the “Mother of Harlots.”

Conclusions:

The are just too many coincidences when we compare the characteristics in the scriptures relating to the woman called “Mystery Babylon — “Mother of Harlots” with that of Ishtar of Babylon and the Statue of Liberty. What we conclude:

The Statue of Liberty is the woman being described in Revelation 17/18 and especially 17:4-5, 9 and 18:7 along with Isaiah 47:1-15. We say this because we know that the Statue of Liberty is actually the artist/sculpture’s vision of Ishtar, the goddess of Babylon. This makes the Statue of Liberty the largest Idol ever made by human hands.

Is it any wonder that our Congressional lawmakers seem to be so perpetually “screwed up?”

The reference to “Mystery Babylon — Mother of Harlots” is referencing Ishtar, the Mother of Harlots of Babylon…and her “mystery doctrines” such as salvation by sex for money. There are numerous other statue of other pagan deities in the US Capitol building and around the nation’s capitol city. America is indeed the Mystery Babylon of Revelation 17 and 18.

La Atlántida hallada: Esfinges y pirámides gigantes en el Triangulo de las Bermudas

Quizás eclipsando los descubrimientos de la tumba de Troya y el rey Tut es el descubrimiento de la Atlántida. Ahora, dos audaces científicos, Paul Weinzweig y Pauline Zalitzki, afirman que lo han encontrado. Descubrieron las ruinas sumergidas de la antigua ciudad en las costas de Cuba. 

En el pasado distante la región era tierra seca, pero ahora sólo la isla de Cuba se mantiene por encima del agua. La antigua ciudad esta a 600 pies por debajo del océano y el equipo de investigadores liderado por Weinzweig y Zalitzki está convencido de que es la Atlántida, la ciudad perdia por más de 10.000 años.

La Atlantis se encuentra en el triángulo de las Bermudas

Dos científicos, Paul Weinzweig y Pauline Zalitzki, trabajando frente a la costa de Cuba y con un robot sumergible, han confirmado que una gigantesca ciudad existe en el fondo del océano. El sitio de la antigua ciudad — que incluye varias esfinges y al menos cuatro pirámides gigantes y otras estructuras sorprendentemente se encuentra dentro de los límites de la legendario Triángulo de las Bermudas.

Según un informe de Arclein de Terra Forming Terra, Cuban Subsea Pyramid Complex, la evidencia apunta a que la ciudad se inundó simultáneamente con la crecida de las aguas y el hundimiento de la tierra en el mar. Esto corresponde exactamente con la leyenda de Atlántida.

El desastre pudo haber ocurrido al final de la última Edad de Hielo. A medida que la placa de hielo del Ártico se derritio catastróficamente causó que el nivel del mar aumentará rápidamente alrededor del mundo, afectando especialmente el Hemisferio Norte. Las líneas de la costa cambiaron; tierra se perdió; las islas (incluso la isla continente) desaparecieron.
Al final de la última Edad de Hielo el nivel del mar fueron inferiores a los niveles de hoy en día casi 122 metros. Una vez que las aguas comenzaron a elevarse, aumentaron rápidamente. Teóricamente, ninguna tecnología de entonces o ahora, podría haber salvado la Atlántida de su tumba acuosa. La evidencia de que la tierra, en lo que hoy es el Caribe, también se hundió en el mar concurrentemente parece ser muy cierta.

Arclein observa: "en el momento elevadas porciones de la Dorsal Media del Atlántico disminuyeron también incluyendo Lyonés y las islas y masas de tierra alrededor de las Azores. Incluso si esto no ha ocurrido, este hundimiento fue lo suficientemente grande."
"Esto habría producido una presión ortogonal forzando el hundimiento de este u oeste. Ya que la dorsal entre Cuba y Yucatán es el punto natural de debilidad entre la subsidencia de la cuenca del Golfo y la subsidencia de la cuenca del Caribe, naturalmente desaparecido en lo profundo. El controlador de todo esto fue los hidrostáticos cambios suscitados por ambos el original cortical cambio de hace 12.900 años que he llamado la Inconformidad del Pleistoceno y la elevación lenta de la cuenca de la Bahía de Hudson propiciada por el final de la Edad de Hielo".

La Crisis de los Misiles Cubana detiene la investigación

Según el periodista Luis Mariano Fernandez la ciudad fue primero descubierta hace décadas atrás, pero todos los accesos a ella fue detenida durante y después de la Crisis de los Misiles.

"El Gobierno de Estados Unidos descubrió el presunto lugar durante la Crisis de los Misiles en Cuba en los años sesenta, los submarinos nucleares de crucero encontraron las estructuras (en el mar profundo) con forma de pirámide en el Golfo. Inmediatamente cerraron el sitio y tomaron el control de él y los objetos, a fin de que no llegarán a manos de los rusos."

El equipo científico de expertos del fondo del océano, arqueólogos y oceanógrafos hallaron ruinas de edificios antiguos de 183 metros por debajo del océano. Dicen que la ciudad es la Atlántida.

Pirámides y esfinges más grandes que la de Egipto

La evidencia de que la isla de Cuba es el vestigio de una cultura una vez poderosa es apoyada por el descubrimiento de Zalitzki en la isla que contiene símbolos y pictogramas extremadamente antiguos idénticos a los observados en las estructuras submarinas.

Utilizando sumergibles de exploración, descubrieron estructuras piramidales increíblemente enormes similar (incluso mayor que) las pirámides en Giza, Egipto. Estiman que las pirámides de la Atlántida se construyen con piedras de varios cientos de toneladas de peso.

Increíblemente la antigua ciudad también tiene magníficas esfinges y "piedras que están dispuestas como en Stonehenge, y un lenguaje escrito grabado en las piedras," informa Fernandez.

La pirámide Atlante también se encuentra en el triángulo de las Bermudas

Otra pirámide gigante coronada con lo que parece ser un cristal fue descubierto por buzos en el triángulo de las Bermudas.

La gigantesca estructura, también es quizás superior a la Gran Pirámide de Keops en Egipto e inicialmente identificada por un médico en la década de 1960, ha sido verificada independientemente por equipos de buceo de Francia y los Estados Unidos.

Un descubrimiento que reescribe la historia del mundo

¿Podría tal descubrimiento cambiar la visión de la humanidad de la historia? Sí, podría cambiar todo.

Fernandez escribe, "eso ha confirmado que las piedras fueron cortadas, talladas y pulidas para hacerlos encajar y así formar estructuras mayores. En las inscripciones extrañas, algunos de ellos similares a los jeroglíficos egipcios, se sabe muy poco, excepto que son muy abundantes y se encuentran en casi todas las partes del campo. También han aparecido símbolos y dibujos cuyo significado es desconocido."

La exploración de la Atlántida, llamado Proyecto Exploramar, se está expandiendo para descubrir más de los misterios de la mega-ciudad.

Hablando con un científico sobre la posibilidad de que las ruinas son, de hecho, la Atlantis, Fernandez informa que el experto respondió:

"... en Yucatan en las culturas de hoy es posible que aun queden los aborígenes de esos lugares quizá los Olmecas o alguna civilización muy primitiva de Yucatán, la parte norte de América Central — se originó según ellos en una isla que se hundió por un cataclismo. Esta isla se llama Atlanticú."

También se adapta a las historias sobre la repentina desaparición de la maravillosa Atlántida.

Atlanticú. Atlantis. Los nativos aborígenes todavía lo nombran en su historia.

Durante una entrevista acerca de la exploración de la mega-ciudad, Fernández preguntó al científico Pauline Zalitzki sobre la civilización que la construyó.

"Cuando nosotros publicamos la primera vez la noticia de este hallazgo la Universidad de Veracruz se interesó por nuestro trabajo y las imágenes que habiamos grabado de esas estructuras en el fondo del mar. Concretamente el Instituto de Antropología de esta Universidad me invitó a unas excavaciones que ellos estaban realizando sobre piezas y ruinas de la civilización Olmeca ..."

"Cuando vieron estas imágenes submarinas [ellos] encontraron similitudes y paralelismos con las ruinas encontradas en estas excavaciones que el Instituto estaba llevando a cabo."

"Los Olmecas y otros pueblos primarios nativos tienen todos una morfología que marcan su llegada del continente del Este. Quiere decir esto que venian de la dirección de Cuba, y tuvo que producirse en un terremoto muy grande donde sus tierras se hundieron. Las morfologías de ellos nos indican que pertenecen a tres familias que se salvaron. Una de estas familias llegaron a las costas de Veracruz, que se suponen son los Olmecas. Otras llegaron a Centro América y viajaron hasta las costas del Pacífico, y estas familias crearon la civilización de las Américas tal y como la conocemos hoy en dia, porque ellos distribuyeron todos sus conocimientos."

"Cuando estos antropólogos vieron las imágenes submarinas de esta “ciudad” y vieron en algunos monolitos de piedra algunos símbolos e inscripciones ellos lo identificaron con motivos olmecas. Se quedaron muy sorprendidos".

Los Olmecas delegados de los supervivientes de la Atlántida, una gran cultura superior destruido por una gran inundación en el final de la edad de hielo. El mundo fue reformado y fue destruido un super-civilization, recordado por milenios en leyendas y en una referencia al pasar por el filósofo Platón.

No obstante, la Atlantis era real, es real: los científicos Paul Weinzweig y Pauline Zalitzki la han encontrado.
