Skarr Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 Well, this is probably old news as for many years now, divers had already reported its existence and a couple of years ago, I recall seeing a BBC documentary interviewing some of the divers who went down and actually took photographs of the structure (a little murky) but clearly showing man made structures of stone deep underwater. They have also found a huge sunken city off the Western coast of India and are recovering artifacts and samples. It is estimated that the city was a huge, flourishing place around 10,000 years ago (around the Ice age) and the entire land mass was supposed to have broken off and submerged when some cataclysmic events took place around this time. This has been passed down in Indian myths (various flood myths) as huge tracts of land were covered by the rising sea, due to the warming of the Earth when all that mass of ice melted and changed the global climate. Of course, all of these are theories but there are many interesting things that occurred around this period. As a student of ancient history, I'm always fascinated by this, especially ancient myths. In one mythical battle (the myth is at least a few thousand years old in terms of its documentation but as there was an oral tradition, I suspect that this is much, much older), the hero (present day - being worshipped as lord Krishna) fights off his enemies with a weapon that seeks them out based on sound, as it gets really dark and no one can figure out where the enemy is hiding. Now, this tells me there was some kind of technology involved, which has been lost. There are also interesting descriptions of other weapons ( like one which sets everything on fire within a few miles - like a bomb blast) and a weapon which can be summoned and activated like a program with the correct code or 'mantra' being pronounced. Many of the 'vehicles' (described as chariots by ignorant translators or even the scribes who originally recorded these events) have some kind of propulsion system and their movements are also peculiar as some of them lift off vertically and have some kind of 'radar' on board to sense other flying vehicles. Now, I'm normally a skeptic when it comes to aliens and other technology but I can also read between the lines and figure out that there was some kind of technology involved here, which has been 'lost in translation' to borrow a phrase. The mythical battles I'm referring to are found in an ancient Indian epic poem - "The Mahabharatha". Various translated versions exist and may seem tedious in parts but if you have some patience, there are a number of interesting things here, all of which cannot be simply explained away as being the products of a fanciful imagination.
