Ancient Astronauts

Hi there I would like to direct everyones attention to Lord Pacal/Pakal's sarcophagus lid particularly the glyphs that border it the actual engraving is really cool and I wonder if it sometimes draws attention away from what is happening around the edge of the lid ,if you look at it as if he were launching a rocket vertically then the glyphs in the lower left corner are what caught my eye ,to me there is two that look like a standard dress diving helmet or similar to rockwall paintings found in other parts of the world that seem to display helmeted figures this is what a standard dress diving helmet looks like:

and now here is an enlarged section of the coffin lid:

I know that the one on the left might look a bit like it but the one on the right definitely has a face plate with rivets going around the outside ,I noticed this because I am a commercial diver and have used similar equipment here is a pic of a Kirby Morgan dive helmet which is what a modern diving helmet looks like:

What do you think?

Ancient astronauts would have to be one of my favorite topics





I have a book somewhere about the place that goes into trying to decipher
the border on Pakals sarcophagus. I think the glyphs refer to Mayan gods.
But I could be wrong, I'm gettin old

The whole thing is a bit of an enigma I think-If I remember correctly the lid is made of a material(mica?)which was not found in the local area,and its not known how they fit it into the tomb or transported it there..

Been a while since I read the subject though.

It is this one right?:
