Good find Seagrass - I would have to agree with most of Anthony's conclusions except for :
Guevara is again brought into the story, this time as recognising the sun symbol and two snakes as holy to the la Tolita people. Mr Guevara's
denial, mentioned earlier, covers this as well.
From this it seems that the South American Indians, Hawaiians and Hopi Indians all share the same sacred symbols. Are we supposed to infer that these
disparate and diverse races are all related?
Snake and Sun symbolism is sacred to most Indigenous cultures from around the globe ??? It's almost as if in his determination to debunk one or two
theories he feels the need to discredit all reasonable arguments ?? Why ??
And with regards to his statement " Are we supposed to infer that these disparate and diverse races are all related?"
Genetics has come a long way in the last 60 years, from the discovery of DNA in 1959 by Watson and Crick to detailed studies of the sequence of
genes that make every one of us unique. With this new tool, scientists have been able to study the origins of indigenous populations around the world
and have discovered some surprising new insights into the migration of man around the planet. Gene distribution strongly suggests that ocean currents
have played a very significant part in the early migrations of man with gene pools matching up at either end of these ‘rivers of the ocean'. One
particular example is that 10,000year old African genes have been found amongst people of the Lower Amazon, suggesting that Africans used the southern
Equatorial current to cross the Atlantic. Another example is 6,000 year old Taiwanese genes are found at the opposite end of the Kuroshio current in
Canada and along the West coast of America.
Genetics rewrites Pacific Pre - History
Sea-level has risen and fallen many times during various world cycles.
One can logically deduce most ancient cities/centres would of been built in or around coastal areas ie for shipping / fishing etc therefore any
evidence of these ancient civilisations would now lie buried under water. Perhaps there were once many Islands jotted throughout the Pacific that made
travel between various cultures around the world a very real possibility ??
Underwater cities
Interesting that he only investigated one or two of the artifacts found in the Queensland region ??
