i woulda threw the guy down in florida at him! you know the coral castle that still is a "mystery"

I read the book the 12th planet when I was 20, I am now 25 yrs old, and that book had me thinking for days! It connected alot of dots for me, and was very intresting. From the text of the sumarians along with stories from the bible it all made sense... so what if some things were exactly on point? Most of it is and thats was what kept me reading. I finished that book in less then a month, if it wasnt for work and sleep and hanging out with friends once in awhile i would of finished it in 2 weeks!

They didn't. The Stone of the Pregnant Woman (again, based on current estimates it is only 1000 tons, not 2000) is still in the quarry where it was carved, never separated from the underlying bedrock.

However, the trilithon stones at the Temple of Jupiter Baal at Baalbek weigh 800 tons and were moved by the Romans. Not only moved, but lifted. The Roman polyspastos cranes could lift extraordinary amounts, up to a ton and a half per person working the winches. Of course, one polyspastos could not lift the trilithon stones alone; multiple cranes were needed and it was a very delicate process.

i started out with lost realms you shoudl check it out if you havent yet! i think everyone shoudl start out with lost realms and then read the others just b/c lost realms starts you off on the right foot and everything else falls into place...Sitchin like i said before is 100% no can be but he's deff on it!!

once everyone reaches my level which no one on here knows what that is they can only speculate b/c obviously you aint gonna know me through posts on here as each thread requires a different way to look at things..then people will understand what it's about! but i'm on a level right now that interests the gods to say it humbly

like i said i chose a poor example ther is a lot of controversy regarding these stones

where are your links

www.pacal.de...
The largest stone (the largest building block of the world) is about 21.36m long,
4.33m high, 4.6m wide and weighs about 1200 and 2000 tons. It was transported up the terrace
of Baalbek and has the name 'Hajar el Gouble' (Stone of the South) or 'Hajar el Hibla'
(Stone of the Pregnant Woman). This stone and the other cuboids of the terrace of Baalback give the
archeologists and other scientists and engineers big mysteries. It is unclear how such huge
stones were broken, transported and placed exactly in the foundations. This also applies for the technical
possibilities in the ancient world as well as for today's modern methods. Known displays from
Egypt and Mesopotamia show how stone blocks were transported by thousands of workers with the help of
ropes and wooden rolls. But these stones only have a tenth of the mass of the stones from Baalbek.
Moreover, the smaller stones were transproted over a flat route with enough movement space

www.bibliotecapleyades.net...

Questions constantly crop up concerning these blocks. Baalbek may become a focal point for the dichotomy being uncovered throughout the world today between the prehistoric past we assume existed and our earliest cultures of history.

The massive and elegant Roman stonework and columns pale by comparison to the megaliths they were built upon. The temple very visibly incorporates into its foundation, stones of some 1,500 tons. They are some 68 x 14 x 14 feet! They are the largest worked stones on earth! It is a mystery how such stones could have been moved into place, even according to our science and engineering knowledge of today. It is also a fact the Romans did not use this type of stonework.

www.world-mysteries.com...

At the southern entrance of Baalbeck is a quarry where the stones used in the temples were cut. A huge block, considered the largest hewn stone in the world, still sits where it was cut almost 2,000 years ago. Called the "Stone of the Pregnant Woman", it is 21.5m x 4.8m x 4.2meters in size and weighs an estimated 1,000 tons.

Ok... and why my friend did the ancient civilizations do this? What would shaping thier skulls do for them? Were they perhaps mimicking something or someone? Were they under the assumption that their heads must look like the heads of the gods to prove their devotion? We all know that the ancients did these things the question is why?

oh GOD so it only took you one person? LMFAO


It seems that if anybody mentions "aliens" in their work it automatically becomes a hoax to them. You can even tell in the last indiana jones movie and the fourth kind. It seems people just hates aliens.

Actually I am a firm believer of Aliens, so that is not really what is in question. The question is whether or not Sitchin is a reliable source. And from what I can see, he is not. He wont answer questions posed to him by those that are researching his work, that to me just smells foul.

I was fascinated by crystal skulls come on who wouldnt be. But everyone one in the museums have been shown to be fake if you know of one that isnt by all means share. Im not trying to be factious id really love to know if the Aztec indeed carved any. They made some fascinating jewelry in some respects cooler then the skulls if it wasnt for there macabre nature.

It depended on the civilization. Some did it to differentiate themselves from others, be it other peoples or show social status, or for aesthetic reasons.

Perhaps. It does not mean they were mimicking aliens. Infants can have malformed skulls from birth, or the skull can grow to an unusual shape by accident. All you need is one such person to grow to adulthood, become king and superstitious people will try to mimic his appearance.

as i said earlier
one has to cross check his info
my info
and everyone elses info

which is why i admit when i have made a mistake
post links
and expect others to due the same
and i say thank you for making me smarter or wiser

show me the man who never made a mistake
and I'll show you a man who never did anything

if that isn't good enough
there is always TV

reply to post by dragonridr


they've already explained on the history channel that the ones that havent been proved to be forged...are made in a way that if we tried to replicate it they would shatter its made out a crstal quartz crstal and there are only 2 or 3 marks that can be explained but the rest remains a mystery to how it was made!

they've said for how old it is it couldnt have been made by man...just watch the damn ancient astronauts the mission on youtube then watch ancient astronauts close encounters...interesting # none the least!

reply to post by DoomsdayRex


again where are your links
with out them people will say i made a mistake
and you did disinfo
which would be worse than Sitchin

What is the controversy?

Originally posted by Danbones

I posted links in my other post. For a more accessible article about Roman cranes and construction techniques, read here.

Now, tell us why it would have been impossible for the Romans to move these stones. We have ancient sources describing construction methods and we know the techniques used. All you have is the assumption that it would have been impossible.

Excuse me?

reply to post by DoomsdayRex


your answers are based on speculation.....so my question remains... why did they do this? We will never know...

everything is theory until proven when you got a friends house and some ahole that your buddy hangs with starts boasting how bad he is until its proven until you seen it all he is speaking is theories!

your description of the stones of Balbek
is off
I was hoping you would provide links backing up your version of weights and placements
they were either moved back then which is something
or they were not, which would make them insignificant

Sitchin merely refered to their existance which is an example of why they are ineresting
you are argueing against sitchin's accuracy by saying they were not

The stones in question were there BEFORE the romans
unless you have links that say other wise
you would have posted specific links if you had them wouldn't you?

that would be a comment on your writing not Sitchin's

edit to add
if romans didn't move that stone into place
then Sitchin wrote somthing worth looking into

Demonstrate that the my description and my links are wrong.

I did. In an earlier post. You have ignored this.

What? You're not making any sense.

Rome did indeed build on an earlier structure at Heliopolis. But these were not 1500 ton stones as you have claimed. Current estimates are they were 350 tons.

I would learn proper capitalization, sentence structure and to be cogent before criticizing anyone's writing.
