WASHINGTON (Reuters source) - The only surviving copy of the 500-year-old map that first used the name America goes on permanent display this month at the Library of Congress, but even as it prepares for its debut, the 1507 Waldseemuller map remains a puzzle for researchers.  [Editor’s note:  This promises to be a very interesting story to follow.  Exactly how did the sources of this map come by their detailed information?  Ostensibly, it looks as if the ancients traveled the world and were very familiar with its general geography, from distant times.  This is a great challenge for mainstream archaeologists.]

Why did the mapmaker name the territory America and then change his mind later? How was he able to draw South America so accurately? Why did he put a huge ocean west of America years before European explorers discovered the Pacific?

“That’s the kind of conundrum, the question, that is still out there,” said John Hebert, chief of the geography and map division of the Library of Congress.

The 12 sheets that make up the map, purchased from German Prince Johannes Waldburg-Wolfegg for $10 million in 2003, were mounted on Monday in a huge 6-foot by 9.5-foot (1.85 meter by 2.95 meter) display case machined from a single block of aluminum.

The case will be flooded with inert argon gas to prevent deterioration when it goes on public display December 13. (more…)

Stargate To Heaven - Serpent Power and King Tut
I believe that what we see here is a tradition of cultivation of the life force, or chi, which awakens the spiritual chakra centers of the Pharaoh’s body and ultimately the Eye of Horus, or Wedjat Eye. In other words, this is Yoga, seen through the cultural and historical lens of Ancient Egypt. I would further argue that this Yoga was essential to the Pharaoh’s power, and that furthermore, I would argue that the temples, especially the Great Pyramid at Giza, were devices designed specifically to facilitate the awakening of this power. They were special places that were carefully designed to amplify the lines of earth energy, star alignments and the amplification of sounds with harmonics, combining in a powerful existential and phenomenological experience for the initiate, resulting not in a metaphorical enactment of the awakening, but the real thing.

Why anyone would think, at least with respect to the great pyramids at Giza, that they were used or intended as burial chambers is beyond me. It makes absolutely no sense. The Great Pyramid was sealed shut until it was opened in the 7th Century by Al-Mamun. There was no mummy, and no one else had been inside for all the many centuries. Also, Egyptians always covered the walls and ceilings of their burial chambers with inscriptions. There are no inscriptions in the great pyramid.

The sarcophagus in the so called King’s Chamber in the great pyramid never had a lid!

He believes they are evidence of Atlantis.

This information comes from here.

The rock formation is in Alberta, Canada about 300km southeast of Calgary, near the border with Saskatchewan.

Dubbed the Alberta Indian, the formation was discovered by a Google Earth spotter nicknamed Supergranny.

The area is situated in one of Canada’s key gas fields. The nearest urban centre is Medicine Hat, a town of 56,000 known as “The Gas City” which claims to be Canada’s sunniest spot.

The rock formation’s “face” measures about 255m across and its about 225m long.

Here is an interesting website wherein is detailed how Alberta is naming the site.
