Hello ATS Readers,

An astounding discovery for sure!! Perhaps Rand Flem-Ath was right afterall!

Lost Anceint City Found Under Antarctic Ice

AP - Antarctica - In a startling scientific development yesterday Professor William Dyer (Geology, MU) reports discovery of ruins of an ancient city at the edge of the crumbling Wilkins ice shelf in Antarctica.

As part of the International Polar Year program Professor Dyer and a transdiciplinary team including Miskatonic Professors Lake (Biology) and Pabodie (Engineering) are investigating fossils of giant Antarctic marine life forms, previously unknown to science, some unidentifiable as either plants or animals, initially discovered while boring for ice cores.

Professor Lake suggests these fossils represent pre-Cambrian archaeozoa. Though badly damaged by the drilling, Lake reports intact samples have been obtained. The extremely early date in the geological strata of these fossils is otherwise problematic because of their highly evolved features, including star-shaped heads with cephalopoid tentacles.

Aerial photographs taken by Dyer show a sprawling stone city of permutahedra, cones, and non-euclidean forms. Professor Pabodie says these are, "unprecedented [...] atypical of ancient architecture in any other part of the world". Entering a fissure in one of the cones the two discovered a large petroglyphic mural they believe depicts a creation myth including the Moon separating from the Earth and marine forms similar to those discovered on the floor of the Ross Sea this antarctic summer.

Contact with Dyer's party was interrupted 17 hours ago by an unusually severe ice storm. In a garbled voice transmission received from the party before communications were lost, Dyer was apparently preparing to return to the site of the city to "take a lilly", archaeological slang meaning multi-site deep ice core samples. The USGS advises that severe weather conditions make it inadvisable for other polar investigators to attempt to approach the Wilkins shelf site at this time.

Wow that is some interesting news . I dont know how reliable the news source is but if they can confirm an ancient city in the Antarctic that would be one major discovery . Also the part about the creation myth is very puzzling (I mean the fact of the moon separating from earth).

I hope we get some more info soon , but the part about the last garbled transmission before going to get some samples sounds a bit like taken out of some b-class horror/sci-fi movie

Never the less great find and thank You for posting it

Edit: umm one thing puzzles me , the date of the article on the right says "News Type: Event — Mon Mar 31, 2008 5:36 PM EDT"

Hi,

Sorry but believe the whole thing is a hoax - the first photo 'Wilkins Shelf Anomaly' in the link provided is of an underground station in Stockholm - please see link

www.nextnature.net...

Or maybe the the Swedish underground system is much more extensive than I thought?

Peace!

Yeah your right. I guess they changed the "floor" colors to look like "water". How clever and tricky. Good find. Amazingly fast.

How did you do that so fast? Just curious. Thx

Well thats probably just as well!

I read the thread title and my heart jumped out of my mouth.

A real shame.

Hi,

This photo has been used many times before to represent secret underground global transit systems, Dulce etc..... Just happened to remember it.

Peace!

Hi Chaswickus,

Even better! Intersting that one of the previous posters said the escallators were in Canary Wharfe (London?)

Would you like to swap your WA weather with my -8 windchill weather?

Peace!

I think Byrd summed it up nicely.

I dunno if you'd want to be in our sunny weather at the moment, had 56 degrees C the other day.
