I like the thread with the japanese 10000 years old underwater pyramids !

Thanks for the link.



Yeh i find the ancient past very interesting.







Simon.

I will check out the abydos link, this to me is one of the most interesting temples in alll egypt.

As a child growing up on Okinawa I constantly heard rumors about this place. I cannot believe there is not a full blown international archaelogical investigation of it.

While I do think it is an airplane, I can see the possilbility of it also being simply a head ornament. It does seem like it could be one, though I'd rather believe the airplane theory. That one's cooler.

gold covered aircraft could only have one purpose i can think of...

space travel, gold reflects heat very well.. if not better than any other element...(im not certain on this)

its probably perfect for re-entery...

thast because the christians burnt all the ancient libraries and anything that suggested anti-christian or anything that dind't go with what they wanted at the time, they wanted to write history, so we would follow them because theya re the best obviosuly from history's study lmao

why would they wanna investigate sumtin thats gonna disprove # they've taught us, something big like that would prolly force many more people out of the box, they dun want that now do they

Yep well suposedly in the ancient times there was a large golden flying disk that would Travel to the stars.

It was meant to be huge.

The Golden Era?

That...would be creepy...

Uggg, what a page, white text on a light grey background, you would think that they didn't want us to read it.

OK lets look at the first one, it was described as a "wooden bird model" . So the ancients could make model planes they the threw, hardly rocket science.

Sure maybe they were kids toys, does it mean that they ever progresed beyond it?


If someone dug up Buzz lightyear in another time woudt hey think we all had big heads and could fly with our backpacks? I would like to see their original pic, afterall the one they have there is not too credable.

I think the barely legable text is 90% hype, I am sure if you played around with a model plane long enough you would make something quite aerodynamically advanced. It doesn't mean that they EVER HAD A LIFE SIZED ONE. The inference is unfounded that they had full sized advanced planes, not that I don't think they did, just that they evidence doesn't point to it.

Now look at the second one, you really have to suspend your logic to assume this is a plane. Sure from the right it looks like a man in it, but from the top it looks nothing of the sort.

Hype, and mirrors, are the common features underlying this page and its objects.

Sure there may be some ancient culture who created gliders, hell if the egyptians can make the pyramids, tehn they could easily work out how a plane works. But there is a huge credability gep between there and "there were real practical planes in ancient times"

People are looking for what they want to find.

Like people who see Jesus pics in tortillas.

"Uggg, what a page, white text on a light grey background, you would think that they didn't want us to read it."
Where was that?
"OK lets look at the first one, it was described as a "wooden bird model" . So the ancients could make model planes they the threw, hardly rocket science."
They said that's what they labeled it in 1898, when people had little to no knowledge of airplanes.
"If someone dug up Buzz lightyear in another time woudt hey think we all had big heads and could fly with our backpacks? I would like to see their original pic, afterall the one they have there is not too credable. "
I don't even know what that was supposed to mean... but they aren't saying that they regularly flew around.
"I think the barely legable text is 90% hype, I am sure if you played around with a model plane long enough you would make something quite aerodynamically advanced. It doesn't mean that they EVER HAD A LIFE SIZED ONE. The inference is unfounded that they had full sized advanced planes, not that I don't think they did, just that they evidence doesn't point to it. "
It probably is, but remember, they didn't have planes in 200 BC, at least to my knowledge

They did however have birds and air...
Aerodynamics is not a new science.

"the observation of fluids and their effect on objects can be traced back to the Greek philosopher Aristotle in 350 B.C. Aristotle conceived the notion that air has weight and observed that a body moving through a fluid encounters resistance."

This is very early aerodynamics. Making something fly isn't the basics. It takes more than just simple knowledge attained from casual observations.

Just because they could observe birds doesn't mean they knew how they could fly. They might have thought that birds were mystical creatures that used magic to fly.

That was some awesome stuff. Keep it coming.

I wonder what it looks like when ancient peoples fought each other in these air planes...
