Here's a map from 1923




It doesn't look any different to how it is represented now.

Great find. Starred.

I think this has been proven beyond any reasonable doubt now.

This is certainly a case of people not being educated about geography and or mis-remembering things inaccurately.

I will say, I do Not feel anyone is purposely hoaxing; it seems more like an honest mistake to me...

I'd say it has to be C, though I'm a bit hesitant because this map makes it look like Austrailia is crashing in to Paupa New Guinea, I always thought it was just a tad farther from that (guess that's what happens when you put a round Earth on a flat paper though). All I know is that NZ has always been to the South East, here's a good spherical representation:



The reason so many get it wrong is that human memory is faulty and people, especially Americans like me, tend to disregard geography of countries that they don't live in or go to war with. New Zealand's not exactly threatening to Nuke anyone, no one is in a cold war with them. So Geography classes here in the states breeze over it and don't give it a second thought which leads to many people not knowing where it is. PLUS its in the ocean, its not like its connected or bordering other countries.

There are a great many possible reasons why people get the answer wrong that we must consider before we jump to wild conclusions like timeline shifts and other pseudoscientific OUT THERE explanations.

The way i understand it there is a timewave of events. This timewave is based on past world-changing events and predicts future events. It predicts events based on a concept called "novelty." I believe it was McKenna who came up with it, which may make it questionable to some, but nevertheless I find it quite interesting. Check out the following on wiki:

You must not get it yet so let me explain in plain terms.

The maps in this "timewave" will always be the same as THIS "timewave" hasn't CHANGED. Showing old maps does not prove or disprove ANYTHING.

I disagree because the whole argument (from a believers side) is based on pictures of Australia and/or New Zealand out of place.
