1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:26,440 Okay, so we're going to start in Egypt. 2 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,440 Why not, right? 3 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,800 And we have an animal-human hybrid right here. 4 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,760 The Sphinx is the body of a lion and the head of a human being. 5 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:40,200 So we're going to dig into legends and myths and find out if there's any truth to possible 6 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,480 animal-human hybrids or if it's all mythology. 7 00:00:42,480 --> 00:00:46,320 We're going to look at the evidence today. 8 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:51,280 And in Egypt, the dynasty of Egypt ran a really long time. 9 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:57,000 You could argue it ran from 3000 BC to 1500 BC. 10 00:00:57,159 --> 00:01:01,280 Thanks to the Rosetta Stone, we are able to decipher hieroglyphics. 11 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,359 We understand what they say. 12 00:01:03,359 --> 00:01:07,599 And what the Egyptians wrote about is that there were human beings on the planet and 13 00:01:07,599 --> 00:01:08,939 there was God. 14 00:01:08,939 --> 00:01:15,039 But there was another group of demigods and they had names like Horus and Osiris and Isis 15 00:01:15,039 --> 00:01:18,719 and they had all kinds of kind of special powers. 16 00:01:18,719 --> 00:01:22,400 And a lot of people in my field believe they're the Anunnaki. 17 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:28,120 And in addition to that, there was another group who were part animal, part human. 18 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:32,880 So there were basically different groups on the planet at that time. 19 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,040 And we'll look into them further. 20 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,040 And here's another one with the head of a crocodile and the body of a human. 21 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,240 This is Sobek. 22 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:47,580 And he was described as a general in Pharaoh's army. 23 00:01:47,579 --> 00:01:54,620 And there's a lot of bas reliefs or statues of him around the Nile River and decorations 24 00:01:54,620 --> 00:01:56,379 of him on temples in that area. 25 00:01:56,379 --> 00:02:00,179 So that's one example. 26 00:02:00,179 --> 00:02:04,180 But we need to also look at ancient tablets for evidence. 27 00:02:04,180 --> 00:02:05,439 So this is in Iran. 28 00:02:05,439 --> 00:02:07,099 This is an amazing site. 29 00:02:07,099 --> 00:02:09,379 And it's called the Baistan tablets. 30 00:02:09,379 --> 00:02:13,020 And it's up on a wall or on the side of a mountain. 31 00:02:13,020 --> 00:02:16,579 The only thing I could compare it to in the United States would be Mount Rushmore. 32 00:02:16,580 --> 00:02:19,940 It's about the size of a football field. 33 00:02:19,940 --> 00:02:26,460 And a researcher named Rawlinson in the 1800s had to climb up there in scaffolds. 34 00:02:26,460 --> 00:02:31,300 And he took a paper mache of these writings. 35 00:02:31,300 --> 00:02:34,140 And he brought them down and tried to decode them. 36 00:02:34,140 --> 00:02:40,800 It was like a Rosetta Stone because some of the writings were in Sumerian cuneiform. 37 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,420 And right next to it was Akkadian, which was understood. 38 00:02:43,420 --> 00:02:45,640 So that provided the translation. 39 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:52,539 That was the breakthrough as to why we are able to understand Sumerian clay tablets 40 00:02:52,539 --> 00:02:54,199 to this day. 41 00:02:54,199 --> 00:02:56,159 And so once again, it's in Iran. 42 00:02:56,159 --> 00:02:57,679 And it tells the story of a king. 43 00:02:57,679 --> 00:02:59,079 His name was Darius. 44 00:02:59,079 --> 00:03:02,799 And he was fighting in Persia for control of the empire. 45 00:03:02,799 --> 00:03:06,239 That's what this story is about. 46 00:03:06,239 --> 00:03:07,599 Little bit closer up. 47 00:03:07,599 --> 00:03:13,339 And it says that he had some kind of deity or god who flew around on a winged disk telling 48 00:03:13,339 --> 00:03:14,839 him what to do. 49 00:03:15,039 --> 00:03:16,700 And his name was Ahura Mazda. 50 00:03:16,700 --> 00:03:19,460 And you can see him right up there on top. 51 00:03:19,460 --> 00:03:20,920 What is a winged disk? 52 00:03:20,920 --> 00:03:22,719 Is it a possible UFO? 53 00:03:22,719 --> 00:03:30,000 A lot of researchers in my field believe that's a depiction of a UFO. 54 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,000 Another key piece of evidence is in the library of Nineveh. 55 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:40,000 Because there were 30,000 tablets when this was uncovered, neatly arranged, almost like 56 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,000 a library. 57 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:42,000 And they were in order. 58 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:43,000 And they were filed. 59 00:03:43,159 --> 00:03:45,840 And now a lot of them are in the British Museum. 60 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:51,759 But a lot of researchers in my field really refer to the library of Nineveh and all of 61 00:03:51,759 --> 00:03:54,800 the incredible findings of the clay tablets. 62 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,080 And this has helped us discover what was happening. 63 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,920 And the time frame is about 4000 BC. 64 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,360 So before the Egyptian dynasty. 65 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,879 And this is in the area of Sumer, Iran, Iraq. 66 00:04:08,759 --> 00:04:13,759 The university that really got involved in all of this around 1900 was the University 67 00:04:13,759 --> 00:04:15,259 of Pennsylvania. 68 00:04:15,259 --> 00:04:20,079 So if you're in that area or if you visit Pennsylvania and you want to see clay tablets 69 00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:24,920 and find out about research, they were the group that went over to the Middle East... 70 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:30,000 1900 and were doing a lot of digging and finding all of this evidence. 71 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,040 And there's a researcher before Zachari Sitch in the 1950s. 72 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:37,720 I really want people to know about him. 73 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,439 His name is Samuel Kramer. 74 00:04:40,439 --> 00:04:45,560 And this book was, you know, it's in Spanish version, La Historia, MPSE, in Sumer. 75 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,840 That means history begins in Sumer. 76 00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:53,040 What he's saying is that art and architecture and math and science and music all kind of 77 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:59,560 appeared in this area of Persia around 4000 BC. 78 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,980 Before that, it was just nomadic tribes of people. 79 00:05:01,980 --> 00:05:02,980 So where did it come from? 80 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:09,620 Did some outside third party intervene around that time and show us, give us this language 81 00:05:09,620 --> 00:05:14,660 and write all these tablets and create these pyramids and do all these things all of a 82 00:05:14,660 --> 00:05:15,660 sudden? 83 00:05:15,660 --> 00:05:18,340 Now Kramer put his work under fiction. 84 00:05:18,340 --> 00:05:21,819 Okay, that's the difference between him and Zachari Sitch. 85 00:05:21,819 --> 00:05:25,819 But it was the 1950s and, you know, it's too bad he's not around. 86 00:05:25,819 --> 00:05:27,140 We could pick his brain a little bit more. 87 00:05:27,140 --> 00:05:30,340 He spent his entire life researching this topic. 88 00:05:30,699 --> 00:05:34,579 So he's written some good books and it's good if you're really going to get into this 89 00:05:34,579 --> 00:05:40,379 field to read, of course, Zachariah Sitch's books, but then go back to the 1950s and 90 00:05:40,379 --> 00:05:42,699 read Kramer as well and compare the two. 91 00:05:42,699 --> 00:05:47,379 He tells the same stories of Enki and Enlil and the brothers and fighting for minerals. 92 00:05:47,379 --> 00:05:48,379 It's the same story. 93 00:05:50,379 --> 00:05:54,299 Okay, this is I wanted to show you guys Lapis Lazuli. 94 00:05:55,259 --> 00:06:00,860 It's a beautiful blue mineral and it was used extensively in Sumeria in 4000 BC by 95 00:06:00,860 --> 00:06:06,420 the Anunnaki and they believed strongly in its powers and for those of you into crystals 96 00:06:06,420 --> 00:06:10,460 and minerals, you may want to work with Lapis Lazuli. 97 00:06:10,460 --> 00:06:12,379 It's supposedly a spiritual stone. 98 00:06:12,379 --> 00:06:18,660 It opens up your chakras and your throat and helps you connect with the divine. 99 00:06:18,660 --> 00:06:23,819 So we not only have writings, we have pictograms or sometimes they're called bas... 100 00:06:24,339 --> 00:06:29,779 They're showing a lot of times like monsters, like animal-human hybrids, and they're... 101 00:06:29,779 --> 00:06:34,540 with human beings and they're interacting with human beings or these demigods. 102 00:06:34,540 --> 00:06:41,100 So that's more further evidence that there may have been some different kinds of... 103 00:06:41,100 --> 00:06:44,539 on the planet at that time, especially before the flood. 104 00:06:47,339 --> 00:06:53,180 In the late 1960s, an incredible book came out of Europe, Chariots of the Gods, and 105 00:06:53,180 --> 00:06:59,420 really his main thesis was that these pyramids and these stone blocks, they were... 106 00:06:59,420 --> 00:07:03,980 They were 60 tons and 70 tons and 80 tons and they were not near the stone quarries 107 00:07:03,980 --> 00:07:04,980 many times. 108 00:07:04,980 --> 00:07:07,860 Stonehenge is not located next to a stone quarry. 109 00:07:07,860 --> 00:07:09,379 No, no, no. 110 00:07:09,379 --> 00:07:10,379 Miles and miles away. 111 00:07:10,379 --> 00:07:15,620 So somehow these huge heavy blocks had to be lifted and carried and put into place and 112 00:07:15,620 --> 00:07:17,860 that was kind of his main thesis. 113 00:07:17,860 --> 00:07:21,340 He covers the ancient ruins aspect of it. 114 00:07:22,259 --> 00:07:26,099 It was made into a television show in the early 70s. 115 00:07:26,099 --> 00:07:31,139 It was shown in NBC in the United States and there were only three networks at the time. 116 00:07:31,139 --> 00:07:36,899 So a lot of Americans saw it and that really kicked off the whole field and now there's 117 00:07:36,899 --> 00:07:38,899 hundreds of researchers. 118 00:07:38,899 --> 00:07:43,979 This is Zacharias Sitchin and he's in southern Mexico here and he's standing nex... 119 00:07:43,979 --> 00:07:50,099 giant Olmec heads and there's dozens of them, you know, all through these dense forests 120 00:07:50,140 --> 00:07:51,500 in Mexico. 121 00:07:51,500 --> 00:07:53,060 So it gives you an idea of their height. 122 00:07:53,060 --> 00:07:59,300 You know, they're about eight feet high and I submit to you that these are not warrior 123 00:07:59,300 --> 00:08:00,620 helmets that they're wearing. 124 00:08:00,620 --> 00:08:05,300 I and Zacharias Sitchin and just a lot of people in this field submit to you that these 125 00:08:05,300 --> 00:08:11,100 are gold mining helmets and that these were gold miners and they came from Africa and 126 00:08:11,100 --> 00:08:17,460 were digging for precious minerals all throughout Peru and Central America and... 127 00:08:17,460 --> 00:08:20,060 this was really all about. 128 00:08:20,139 --> 00:08:21,259 So Sitchin wrote 20 books. 129 00:08:21,259 --> 00:08:27,379 He died a few years ago and he's still the leader in the field, the top linguist writing 130 00:08:27,379 --> 00:08:33,659 extensively about the Anunnaki, all of these gods, these brothers and sisters, these... 131 00:08:33,659 --> 00:08:38,779 who came from this other place and came down from the heavens and boy there's just a... 132 00:08:38,779 --> 00:08:44,419 bit that made it into the Bible in Genesis 6 but he interpreted the clay tablets. 133 00:08:44,459 --> 00:08:50,139 Now the University of Pennsylvania, what they're doing is cataloging all the tablets 134 00:08:50,139 --> 00:08:54,500 and they're linking up with museums all around the world so you can go on their... 135 00:08:54,500 --> 00:08:58,259 and you can look at them and it will have translations. 136 00:08:58,259 --> 00:08:59,539 Sometimes it's just a fragment. 137 00:08:59,539 --> 00:09:02,819 It'll say this person and that person got married. 138 00:09:02,819 --> 00:09:04,179 It's just a marriage certificate. 139 00:09:04,179 --> 00:09:05,459 That's all it is. 140 00:09:05,459 --> 00:09:09,059 Or this person sold a piece of land to that person. 141 00:09:09,059 --> 00:09:12,459 Or this person traded some sheep for some cows. 142 00:09:12,500 --> 00:09:17,780 Or it'll tell you a story about the Anunnaki and fighting for gold. 143 00:09:17,780 --> 00:09:18,940 It depends on the tablet. 144 00:09:18,940 --> 00:09:22,420 But that's why a lot of us don't believe these are fairy tales. 145 00:09:22,420 --> 00:09:27,500 Why are 80% of them like business transactions and real estate documents and... 146 00:09:27,500 --> 00:09:30,980 These don't seem like fairy tales at all. 147 00:09:30,980 --> 00:09:38,340 These are pretty down to earth tablets and documents of transactions. 148 00:09:38,340 --> 00:09:39,740 And so this is Thoth. 149 00:09:39,740 --> 00:09:46,700 This is one of these deities or demigods and he was depicted as some kind of animal-human 150 00:09:46,700 --> 00:09:47,700 hybrid. 151 00:09:47,700 --> 00:09:52,460 He has the body of a human being, but he has the head of an ibis or a pelican. 152 00:09:52,460 --> 00:09:55,500 And there's different theories on this. 153 00:09:55,500 --> 00:09:58,580 Some people just believe it's just symbolic. 154 00:09:58,580 --> 00:09:59,580 You know, it's just symbolic. 155 00:09:59,580 --> 00:10:00,580 And by the way, he's always writing. 156 00:10:00,580 --> 00:10:05,060 He's always got a quill and he was documenting events at the time. 157 00:10:05,059 --> 00:10:10,259 Other researchers believe that the Anunnaki wore masks when they were in public and that 158 00:10:10,259 --> 00:10:12,379 this was a mask. 159 00:10:12,379 --> 00:10:17,879 Because if you've seen ancient statues of the Anunnaki, they have giant eyes. 160 00:10:17,879 --> 00:10:22,479 And apparently it was disturbing to human beings to look directly into their eyes. 161 00:10:22,479 --> 00:10:25,419 And so maybe when they were out in public, they wore a mask of an animal. 162 00:10:25,419 --> 00:10:26,419 I don't know. 163 00:10:26,419 --> 00:10:28,459 I'm just throwing it out there as a theory. 164 00:10:28,459 --> 00:10:32,339 And then there's a third group that believe, no, this is what he actually looked like. 165 00:10:32,340 --> 00:10:35,620 This is an accurate, like a photograph. 166 00:10:35,620 --> 00:10:36,980 Okay. 167 00:10:36,980 --> 00:10:38,660 So this is a clay tablet. 168 00:10:38,660 --> 00:10:39,660 It's they're small. 169 00:10:39,660 --> 00:10:42,940 They're, you know, like six inches by six inches, a lot of them. 170 00:10:42,940 --> 00:10:46,620 And the it's like a triangular wedge shape. 171 00:10:46,620 --> 00:10:48,580 It's called cuneiform. 172 00:10:48,580 --> 00:10:51,620 It's not related to any ancient language. 173 00:10:51,620 --> 00:10:55,220 There's no linguistic similarities to Hebrew or Greek. 174 00:10:55,220 --> 00:11:01,879 It's as if it were an off the planet language or a third party language or interference. 175 00:11:01,879 --> 00:11:06,320 We don't have any triangular shaped languages that we're writing today. 176 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,799 It's just something different. 177 00:11:08,799 --> 00:11:13,620 And about half a million of them have been found so far in Persia. 178 00:11:13,620 --> 00:11:17,919 And they're in museums all over the world. 179 00:11:17,919 --> 00:11:23,240 And this is a depiction of bas relief of what the Anunnaki may have looked like. 180 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,580 Large eyes, like I told you a lot of times they had long beards. 181 00:11:26,580 --> 00:11:28,600 Right next to it is some kind of reptilian creature. 182 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:29,600 Okay. 183 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,200 And then, you know, for a while, there's some kind of reptilian human creature going on. 184 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:34,200 All right. 185 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:38,600 Not that often, but there's there's some statues and he's got wings on his back and... 186 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,800 walking side by side and he's holding a pine cone. 187 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:47,120 And that my understanding is that represents the third eye and the pineal gland. 188 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:50,879 And that's a sacred image of a pine cone there. 189 00:11:50,879 --> 00:11:53,519 So this is a statue of Gilgamesh. 190 00:11:53,519 --> 00:11:57,840 There's a really old series of 12 clay tablets. 191 00:11:57,879 --> 00:11:59,399 And they tell the story of Gilgamesh. 192 00:11:59,399 --> 00:12:02,240 And anyone interested in the field, you got to know this story. 193 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:03,240 Okay. 194 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,000 It's one of the oldest stories we have. 195 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:06,360 He was a king. 196 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:10,519 He was part Anunnaki and part human. 197 00:12:10,519 --> 00:12:12,320 That was his genetics. 198 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:17,680 So he wasn't totally immortal like the demigods, but he wanted to be. 199 00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:22,259 And he went on this long journey to attain immortality. 200 00:12:22,259 --> 00:12:26,680 And he went through all sorts of adventures along the way. 201 00:12:27,519 --> 00:12:33,000 It's an interesting document saying that at that time there were Anunnaki, there were 202 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,719 human beings and there were hybrids in between. 203 00:12:36,719 --> 00:12:37,719 And he was a giant. 204 00:12:37,719 --> 00:12:42,519 He was, you know, whatever, seven feet tall, maybe not as giant as the Anunnaki, but he 205 00:12:42,519 --> 00:12:46,719 was taller than most humans. 206 00:12:46,719 --> 00:12:52,679 And these are just there's all kinds of ancient statues of creatures with wings on... 207 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,839 And they're found all around the world. 208 00:12:55,839 --> 00:13:00,559 And they're depictions of maybe, maybe ability to fly. 209 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:01,559 Maybe it's just symbolic. 210 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:06,120 But there's a, and the most common one is the birdman. 211 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:15,479 The birdman like this, you would find all over the world in various types of statues. 212 00:13:15,479 --> 00:13:22,439 So this is an really ancient almanac from, if you look into Europe, going back into 213 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:28,280 the 1300s and 1400s, they had all these, they were called bestiaries. 214 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:29,280 All right. 215 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,760 That's a new word of the day for you, bestiaries. 216 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:37,040 And it's an ancient encyclopedia and it depicts creatures. 217 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,580 And there was a Roman named Pliny the Elder. 218 00:13:39,580 --> 00:13:46,200 And he wrote about, you know, normal, he was cataloging animals 2000 years ago, like... 219 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:47,980 elephants and giraffes. 220 00:13:47,980 --> 00:13:53,560 And then in the same dictionary or encyclopedia, he would have these monsters... 221 00:13:53,560 --> 00:13:55,720 that I'm talking about side by side. 222 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,420 So his name again is Pliny the Elder. 223 00:13:57,420 --> 00:14:04,759 And he did a lot of documenting a couple thousand years ago that these were real... 224 00:14:04,759 --> 00:14:09,899 And this is, you know, all back to Egypt a little bit. 225 00:14:09,899 --> 00:14:13,039 They talked about when you die, you would go on a journey through the underworld and 226 00:14:13,039 --> 00:14:17,459 you would encounter a lot of fearsome creatures like Anubis. 227 00:14:17,459 --> 00:14:24,299 And he would rip out your heart if you were not worthy enough to enter the kingdom of 228 00:14:24,299 --> 00:14:26,620 immortality or he would let you pass by. 229 00:14:26,620 --> 00:14:28,299 And that's his scale of justice. 230 00:14:28,299 --> 00:14:33,839 And he's weighing the scales of justice right here to find out your worth. 231 00:14:33,839 --> 00:14:39,059 So this is a chimera and this is the body of a lion. 232 00:14:39,059 --> 00:14:41,779 But then it has a goat's head coming out of the back. 233 00:14:41,779 --> 00:14:44,360 And then it has the tail of a snake. 234 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:52,559 So this is definitely a representation of a beast in our past that was like a hybrid 235 00:14:52,559 --> 00:14:55,339 of different kinds of animals. 236 00:14:55,339 --> 00:15:02,799 So I mean, there's various legends around the world of the chimera. 237 00:15:02,799 --> 00:15:07,120 And a lot of times what it talks about is it would wait on some country road away from 238 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:14,080 And it would attack travelers or maybe sometimes a lone visitor going from one pl... 239 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:20,759 And that would be the interaction with humans would be killing the human being. 240 00:15:20,759 --> 00:15:26,639 And that's one example of a legend and mystery. 241 00:15:26,639 --> 00:15:32,620 This is the, let me get a little bit more, the harpies were legendary. 242 00:15:32,620 --> 00:15:34,960 They were female type of beings. 243 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,800 They had the body of a bird and the head and breast of a human female. 244 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:44,040 A lot of them were said to have kind of an evil or hostile mood generally. 245 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:47,600 And they gathered in groups of 20 and 30. 246 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,960 According to Greek mythology, King Phineas was overtaken by harpies who attacked his 247 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,080 city. 248 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:59,000 And Jason and the Argonauts traveled by ship to drive off the harpies with bows and arrows 249 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,040 chasing them out to sea. 250 00:16:01,039 --> 00:16:05,299 Many of the elder documents harpies in his natural history book stating that they were 251 00:16:05,299 --> 00:16:10,159 cited near India by the entourage of Alexander the Great. 252 00:16:10,159 --> 00:16:15,480 So there's similar to the ancient Sumerian stories of the Pazuzu and the bird man except 253 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:19,679 this time it's a female character. 254 00:16:19,679 --> 00:16:22,179 So sirens are similar. 255 00:16:22,179 --> 00:16:24,879 They have the head of a woman but the body of an eagle. 256 00:16:24,879 --> 00:16:29,360 They have, there's a lot of folklore of sailors around the globe interacting with... 257 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:30,879 they would attack sailors on the ship. 258 00:16:30,879 --> 00:16:34,879 But they would sing this beautiful song and they would try to enchant the sailors out 259 00:16:34,879 --> 00:16:37,879 to sea alone where they could attack. 260 00:16:37,879 --> 00:16:42,740 And Jason and the Argonauts had to sail through a group of them in Greek mythology. 261 00:16:42,740 --> 00:16:47,200 He plugged his ears with wax and they tied him to the mast because this song was so 262 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:48,519 beautiful. 263 00:16:48,519 --> 00:16:51,919 And so he was able to make it through this pack of them. 264 00:16:51,919 --> 00:16:56,920 And they were so upset these sirens that a lot of them killed themselves according to 265 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:57,920 the myth. 266 00:16:58,479 --> 00:17:02,479 And they're companions to the goddess Persephone in Greek mythology. 267 00:17:02,479 --> 00:17:08,639 And they're also listed in medieval bestiaries right alongside other kinds of... 268 00:17:08,639 --> 00:17:14,139 And there's a 17th century book called Johnston's Birds and which lists them as w... 269 00:17:14,139 --> 00:17:16,119 want to look that one up. 270 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:21,240 Okay, this is the basilisk and this is kind of a fearsome creature. 271 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:25,500 There we go. 272 00:17:25,500 --> 00:17:30,180 The body and tail of a snake and bird's legs with wings on the chest. 273 00:17:30,180 --> 00:17:35,779 And it's a relative of the codal like Quetzalcoatl from Mexico, the feathered... 274 00:17:35,779 --> 00:17:39,420 This is like a cousin or a relative to a codal. 275 00:17:39,420 --> 00:17:44,220 And a distant relative is said to be an iguana as well. 276 00:17:44,220 --> 00:17:47,619 These deadly creatures paralyze their victims with an intense stare. 277 00:17:47,619 --> 00:17:51,220 So if you run into one, you don't want to look them in the eye. 278 00:17:51,220 --> 00:17:52,220 Okay. 279 00:17:52,740 --> 00:17:56,980 They were said, then they would bite their victims and causing fatal convulsions. 280 00:17:56,980 --> 00:18:01,539 Pliny the Elder detailed basilisks in his natural history book. 281 00:18:01,539 --> 00:18:04,500 And they were also featured in 12th century bestiaries. 282 00:18:04,500 --> 00:18:05,700 Okay. 283 00:18:05,700 --> 00:18:09,740 And really old almanacs from Europe basically. 284 00:18:09,740 --> 00:18:14,539 The snake and bird hybrid symbolized the devil in England and there were a wave of... 285 00:18:14,539 --> 00:18:18,860 in the 15th century, which is much more recent. 286 00:18:19,259 --> 00:18:24,259 A brave man, what they did to kill the basilisk is he would don a suit of mirrors... 287 00:18:24,259 --> 00:18:28,379 would go into where this room where the basilisk was and hopefully it would look i... 288 00:18:28,379 --> 00:18:31,099 mirror and die. 289 00:18:31,099 --> 00:18:36,379 And the last known attack was two young girls were killed in Poland and they sent a... 290 00:18:36,379 --> 00:18:40,500 down into a basement with a suit of mirrors to kill the creature. 291 00:18:40,500 --> 00:18:42,699 So that was the last known attack. 292 00:18:42,699 --> 00:18:45,419 Okay, the griffin. 293 00:18:45,419 --> 00:18:48,059 This is a royal lion with wings on it. 294 00:18:48,059 --> 00:18:51,899 It's another kind of hybrid between two or three different animals. 295 00:18:51,899 --> 00:18:55,740 And it's featured a lot on royal crests all throughout Europe. 296 00:18:55,740 --> 00:18:58,539 It's a majestic animal. 297 00:18:58,539 --> 00:19:04,700 There's a Roman historian named Aelion and he reported in 200 AD attacks on animals by 298 00:19:04,700 --> 00:19:11,579 griffins ripping also humans ripping them to shreds with eagle like talons. 299 00:19:11,579 --> 00:19:20,460 And he describes the goddess Ishtar is the mistress of the griffins according to... 300 00:19:20,460 --> 00:19:26,939 And the royal kingdoms would do is they would have symbols them around the treasure to 301 00:19:26,939 --> 00:19:28,059 basically protect them. 302 00:19:28,059 --> 00:19:32,259 The Greek historian Herodias writes about a griffin who ruled the seacoast of Russia 303 00:19:32,259 --> 00:19:35,059 and fought with men over gold and treasure. 304 00:19:35,059 --> 00:19:39,059 And there's a if you read the book Alice in Wonderland, there's a more gentler, kinder 305 00:19:39,139 --> 00:19:42,779 version of the griffin. 306 00:19:42,779 --> 00:19:47,659 This is a lake in Los Angeles and there's been a lot of sightings of the griffin and 307 00:19:47,659 --> 00:19:49,759 it's called Lake Elizabeth. 308 00:19:49,759 --> 00:19:51,740 And it was in the 1800s. 309 00:19:51,740 --> 00:19:59,700 And these were Spanish ranchers who were living all around the lake and some kind o... 310 00:19:59,700 --> 00:20:05,819 monster that looked like a griffin was attacking their livestock and apparently... 311 00:20:05,819 --> 00:20:08,700 fire and burning down some of their houses. 312 00:20:08,700 --> 00:20:14,700 And I mean, it's hard to believe, but I'm including it because there were so many... 313 00:20:14,700 --> 00:20:21,080 about the situation and people who ran away from their home and they left their entire 314 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,620 livestock and their farm or the ranch or whatever. 315 00:20:24,620 --> 00:20:29,340 And the missionaries called it El Lago de Diablo, the lake of the devil. 316 00:20:29,340 --> 00:20:33,420 And finally, there was this really tough hombre, this rancher named Miguel Leonis, ... 317 00:20:34,300 --> 00:20:37,900 shot and killed it apparently in 1886. 318 00:20:37,900 --> 00:20:43,580 But if you go there today, the people who live around Lake Elizabeth will tell you some 319 00:20:43,580 --> 00:20:45,420 stories about that. 320 00:20:45,420 --> 00:20:47,980 This is the behemoth. 321 00:20:47,980 --> 00:20:50,019 It's described several times in the Bible. 322 00:20:50,019 --> 00:20:55,039 The book of Job tells us of a creature with powerful muscles who lives in a swamp. 323 00:20:55,039 --> 00:20:58,980 And it's described as some kind of cross between an elephant and a hippo. 324 00:20:58,980 --> 00:21:03,380 And it's also written about in the book of Enoch, which was censored from the Bible... 325 00:21:03,380 --> 00:21:06,900 it talks about giants in the book of Enoch. 326 00:21:06,900 --> 00:21:12,620 And it's described as a monster, one of the largest beasts of the animal kingdom, a... 327 00:21:12,620 --> 00:21:14,700 type of dinosaur. 328 00:21:14,700 --> 00:21:18,220 It also mentions an animal human beast in Samuel 23. 329 00:21:18,220 --> 00:21:24,900 Benaiah is a valiant fighter, and he kills two other fearsome men who are said to have 330 00:21:24,900 --> 00:21:27,380 lion-like features. 331 00:21:27,380 --> 00:21:32,000 And Samuel also mentions, you know, if you read Samuel 21 in the Bible, a giant with 332 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,559 six fingers and toes. 333 00:21:34,559 --> 00:21:40,720 And the book of Jasher in the Apocrypha mentions manipulation of animals and human... 334 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:46,799 creatures as does the book of giants or the book of Enoch. 335 00:21:46,799 --> 00:21:51,880 And there are statues on Easter Island of some of these demigods, and they do have 336 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,500 six fingers and six toes. 337 00:21:54,500 --> 00:21:59,799 And there's some Tiki gods in the South Pacific that have six fingers and six toes. 338 00:21:59,799 --> 00:22:04,599 And there's a biblical description of Goliath with six fingers and six toes. 339 00:22:04,599 --> 00:22:11,399 So you know, it's very possible that they were that that was a difference between them 340 00:22:11,399 --> 00:22:12,399 and us. 341 00:22:12,399 --> 00:22:17,680 And if you notice today, we have a counting or a math system based on six still to this 342 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,519 day, like 60 seconds and a minute, 60 minutes and an hour. 343 00:22:21,519 --> 00:22:22,519 And that's kind of odd. 344 00:22:22,519 --> 00:22:25,279 You would think we would be counting by tens all the way, right? 345 00:22:25,279 --> 00:22:26,599 Ten fingers. 346 00:22:26,959 --> 00:22:31,919 We still have this strange system based on six, and it could be due to that factor of 347 00:22:31,919 --> 00:22:34,119 the giants having six fingers. 348 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,439 It's a theory. 349 00:22:36,439 --> 00:22:38,199 This is Angkor Wat. 350 00:22:38,199 --> 00:22:41,439 And it's this is an amazing place in Cambodia. 351 00:22:41,439 --> 00:22:46,399 And there's 72 buildings on the ground, which correspond to 72 stars in the constellation 352 00:22:46,399 --> 00:22:47,599 of Draco. 353 00:22:47,599 --> 00:22:52,679 So I believe it was built by the Anunnaki because human beings just didn't do that k... 354 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,920 building where they would align the buildings with some star system. 355 00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,000 That's a hallmark of the Anunnaki. 356 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:05,440 When researchers in my field are looking for who built what and the Garuda is an animal 357 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:06,440 human hybrid. 358 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,200 It has the head of an eagle and the body of a human. 359 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:10,640 And it's all throughout this temple. 360 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,400 It's all throughout statues and symbols on the wall. 361 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:22,640 This Garuda and the wings of the eagle may represent the God's ability to fly once... 362 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,640 So you can see the detailed, intricate symbols on the wall here. 363 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:27,759 And it's just beautiful. 364 00:23:27,759 --> 00:23:29,920 And they're all throughout India. 365 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,400 There's a strong belief in the Nagas. 366 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,640 And the Nagas are a powerful reptilian race of gods. 367 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:41,000 And they say they came down from the sky and they imparted knowledge to mankind. 368 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,640 And they're said to live below the temple sites. 369 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:48,640 And there's a widespread belief in Nagas, which are basically the body of a human and 370 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,480 the head of a snake all throughout India in the distant past. 371 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:56,920 It's all throughout that region. 372 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:58,720 And here's a Sphinx. 373 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:04,360 And so, you know, there were guardians all over, you know, the Middle East. 374 00:24:04,360 --> 00:24:07,079 They were guarding temples. 375 00:24:07,079 --> 00:24:09,559 They were guarding treasure. 376 00:24:09,559 --> 00:24:16,519 And the pharaoh Amenemet sent a pair of them to guard the temple of Baal in Syria. 377 00:24:16,519 --> 00:24:24,039 So there's research or I found research of trading them back and forth amongst kings. 378 00:24:24,039 --> 00:24:28,879 They were used by royalty as bodyguards and gatekeepers, similar to a griffin. 379 00:24:28,879 --> 00:24:33,359 The Old Testament Book of Kings describes the Sphinx as guarding the Temple of Solomon 380 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:34,359 in Jerusalem. 381 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:40,160 And the symbols were used to decorate chariots of the era. 382 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,119 Okay. 383 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:46,719 So this one, this is kind of like a Lamasue. 384 00:24:46,719 --> 00:24:53,639 You know, you see once again, it could be part lion, part human, part bird with the... 385 00:24:53,639 --> 00:25:01,959 And in 300 AD, the Roman Emperor Hadrian bought a pair of them to Croatia to watch... 386 00:25:01,959 --> 00:25:08,759 And this is probably the last historical reference to a Lamasue or a Sphinx in... 387 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:16,160 And this magnificent creature was bred to be the guardians of Assyrian palaces and... 388 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:22,599 And about 50 years ago, the Shah of Iran was said to have been attacked by a Lamasue. 389 00:25:22,599 --> 00:25:28,000 And the documentation of this event is very sketchy, but he, the Shah of Iran, reported 390 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:34,039 in around 1950 of an attack of a Lamasue. 391 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:40,159 And, you know, there's, they're all, they're featured all throughout the region. 392 00:25:40,159 --> 00:25:41,759 And here's another example of one here. 393 00:25:44,759 --> 00:25:48,000 Okay. This is once again, like a page out of a bestiary here. 394 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,039 And this is the manticore. 395 00:25:50,039 --> 00:25:52,359 Let me make this bigger. 396 00:25:53,839 --> 00:25:58,039 And the manticore you also don't want to run into on a dark, lonely road. 397 00:25:58,839 --> 00:26:05,519 He said to have a kind face like Aslan from the Narnia books, but he would kind of dra... 398 00:26:05,519 --> 00:26:07,159 in with this wise, kind face. 399 00:26:07,159 --> 00:26:10,119 And then he had this poisonous tail with quills on it. 400 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:14,559 And he would kind of whip around that tail and he would, it would be like a poison dart 401 00:26:14,559 --> 00:26:16,920 that he would nail you with and kill you. 402 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:18,119 And then he could eat you. 403 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:22,559 So are we having fun yet? 404 00:26:22,559 --> 00:26:27,839 According to legend, he would trap travelers with his gentle, wise expression on his face. 405 00:26:27,839 --> 00:26:29,480 It's called a manticore once again. 406 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:34,879 And there's been, the only sightings in the past several hundred years are 407 00:26:34,879 --> 00:26:37,000 in the mountainous villages of Iran. 408 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,359 The locals tell many tales about the elusive manticore, 409 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,480 who may be attacking travelers going from one place to another. 410 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:47,000 Once again, usually out on isolated country roads. 411 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,599 Okay. Let's move to Greece. 412 00:26:49,599 --> 00:26:50,839 The Minotaur. 413 00:26:50,839 --> 00:26:55,959 So this is, you know, part bull, part human. 414 00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:02,600 And there's so many myths, of course, in Greek mythology about animal-human hybrids. 415 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:09,840 And he was supposedly, he was so dangerous they built this elaborate maze to keep him... 416 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:13,840 And he was killed off by the god Thesis. 417 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,519 And there are many artists that have created sculptures and paintings 418 00:27:16,519 --> 00:27:20,640 of the legendary fight of Thesis and the Minotaur. 419 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,920 The strangest aspect to the legend of the Minotaur is 420 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,319 that there's a museum owner named Arthur Edwards. 421 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:29,639 And he bought this land in Greece and Crete around 1900. 422 00:27:29,639 --> 00:27:34,759 And he uncovered a giant temple with corridors and hallways in the shape of a... 423 00:27:34,759 --> 00:27:37,319 with a large courtyard in the center. 424 00:27:37,319 --> 00:27:41,319 And of course, on the sides would be frescoes of this creature in a fight. 425 00:27:41,319 --> 00:27:47,000 So this is an example of archeology confirming the legends and the myths 426 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:56,680 of actually finding a temple with a maze in it, just like the story of the Minotaur. 427 00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:01,319 Okay, let's talk about satyrs and fauns. 428 00:28:01,319 --> 00:28:06,319 The ancient god Pan is often depicted as a satyr or a faun. 429 00:28:06,319 --> 00:28:10,759 His legs are like a calf, but his upper body is human except for the face, 430 00:28:10,759 --> 00:28:13,200 which appears to be like a goat. 431 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,799 With two curly horns in his crown, the satyrs are known for their wild parties 432 00:28:16,799 --> 00:28:22,039 and sexual nature, dancing around a glowing fire to the magical sounds of the pan pipes. 433 00:28:22,039 --> 00:28:24,599 Are we having fun yet? 434 00:28:24,599 --> 00:28:25,399 It gets better. 435 00:28:25,399 --> 00:28:29,319 The legendary beasts of the forest had a craving for wine 436 00:28:29,319 --> 00:28:34,720 and often the drunken parties would turn violent and angry. 437 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:39,759 So a lot of us know about, you know, the faun in Narnia, you know, Mr. Tumnus. 438 00:28:39,759 --> 00:28:41,480 It's kind of a gentle creature. 439 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,200 But even he, if you read the Narnia books, was sent to kidnap a human being. 440 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:48,400 So there's like this dark side as well. 441 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,920 And in Greek mythology, the satyrs were the constant companion of Dionysus, 442 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,200 the god of wine and revelry. 443 00:28:55,200 --> 00:29:00,880 And by the way, this is kind of where the symbol of Satan or the devil came from. 444 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:07,720 When the church was kind of working on some kind of image to put forth to be fearsome, 445 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:16,920 the pan or the faun was used as a symbol to create an image of Satan. 446 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:21,279 OK, centaurs are also party animals. 447 00:29:21,279 --> 00:29:21,680 All right. 448 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,920 They're known for getting drunk and violent. 449 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,920 And they were said to be not that intelligent, actually. 450 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,160 You could trick them easily or get them to do things. 451 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,039 They were kind of like big, dumb animals. 452 00:29:32,039 --> 00:29:42,159 But, you know, in astrology, of course, the Sagittarius is that character is based on ... 453 00:29:42,159 --> 00:29:46,799 And they were, like I said, known for a lot of fighting and violence. 454 00:29:46,799 --> 00:29:50,799 They lived in tribes and shared a communal wine jar. 455 00:29:50,799 --> 00:29:58,119 According to legend, bands of centaurs were known to terrorize local villages from Gre... 456 00:29:58,159 --> 00:30:07,279 They're also said to join Dionysus, you know, and the Romans knew him as Bacchus, the go... 457 00:30:07,279 --> 00:30:14,279 Pliny the Elder describes that he saw one embalmed in honey brought over to Rome fro... 458 00:30:14,279 --> 00:30:19,439 They are featured in Roman artwork and murals and frescoes of 2000 years ago. 459 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:26,360 They said they were said to retreat into the remote mountains of Asia and are have not... 460 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:37,360 So there's a strong tradition of dwarves, of little people, of belief in dwarves all... 461 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,000 And there were different groups. 462 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:43,240 There was one group that was often sad and solitary. 463 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:44,840 There was another group of dwarves. 464 00:30:44,839 --> 00:30:50,000 And this is around Scandinavia that are said to be friendly and outgoing and interactin... 465 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,279 but they can also be tricky and they can trick human beings. 466 00:30:53,279 --> 00:30:58,759 And then there's an aspect of kidnapping humans for their genetics and taking them... 467 00:30:58,759 --> 00:31:02,720 And this is a constant theme when you're talking about these little people. 468 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:04,559 It just keeps coming up. 469 00:31:04,559 --> 00:31:13,159 And then there's another group of dwarves that are said to be hoarding treasure and... 470 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:20,240 And they're said to remain underground during the day, but they will feast and carouse a... 471 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,600 They are fine craftsmen in the field of metalsmithing and smelting. 472 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:30,040 And in Viking mythology, they created Thor's hammer, Odin's ring and Freya's necklace. 473 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,560 So here's a giant next to some little people, you know, dwarves. 474 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:41,960 And in Scandinavia and the Vikings just had a really strong tradition of believing in th... 475 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:49,680 It's all throughout their history and Odin, of course, and it's just part of their... 476 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:53,000 And these legends and myths have been passed down to us. 477 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,400 So this is back to Greece. 478 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,079 This is Hercules. 479 00:31:58,079 --> 00:32:02,120 And if you remember, he had 12 tasks and he had to kill the Hydra. 480 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,720 That was one of his the second task. 481 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:10,680 And this was kind of a snake reptilian type of creature with some human qualities as... 482 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:14,039 And of course, when he would slice off the head, then two more would grow. 483 00:32:14,039 --> 00:32:16,960 And he eventually he torched it. 484 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,600 He burned the Hydra. That's how he killed it. 485 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:25,000 And the Hydra was said to have lived underneath a lake and the lake was a gatew... 486 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:31,120 And that's another theme that somehow these a lot of these creatures come from the... 487 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:32,960 And it may lead to some other place. 488 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:40,519 And I just want to remind you that the underneath us, the ground underneath us is... 489 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,839 I mean, there's caverns and caves that go for miles that have never been explored. 490 00:32:44,839 --> 00:32:47,119 So we don't really know. 491 00:32:47,119 --> 00:32:50,319 And so let's see here. 492 00:32:50,319 --> 00:32:57,319 These are we talked a little bit about India and the Nagas, and this is the Birdman onc... 493 00:32:57,319 --> 00:33:01,240 And it's all throughout temples in China as well and Egypt. 494 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:05,440 And this ancient being or deity that was part bird and part human. 495 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,960 And that's just another example. 496 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:12,039 So Gilgamesh, I want to tell you a little bit more. 497 00:33:12,039 --> 00:33:16,039 He had a there's a beast, a Sasquatch right next to him. 498 00:33:16,039 --> 00:33:22,240 And what happened was he was a ruling king in his region in the Middle East. 499 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:27,480 And according to the tablets, the Anunnaki created a beast. 500 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:32,640 They fashioned out of like mud and saliva, it says a beast. 501 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:36,480 And he came forward to attack. 502 00:33:36,519 --> 00:33:41,160 His name was Enkidu, and he came forward to attack Gilgamesh, and they had a big fight. 503 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,319 But they ended up becoming friends and partners. 504 00:33:43,319 --> 00:33:46,360 So now they're pictured side by side here. 505 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:51,559 And they went off on the adventure I told you about the journey for the Fountain of Youth. 506 00:33:51,559 --> 00:33:58,039 So what happened was they went to some area where there's a cedar forest. 507 00:33:58,039 --> 00:34:02,360 And there's only one place, and that's Lebanon, where there's a cedar forest wher... 508 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,480 So we think we know where it is. 509 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:13,119 And there was some giant monster guarding a special area, a giant structure. 510 00:34:13,119 --> 00:34:18,199 And Enkidu had a big fight with this monster, and he died. 511 00:34:18,199 --> 00:34:19,800 He was killed. 512 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,360 But Gilgamesh was able to make it through. 513 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:30,400 And there is a place here, it's called Baalbek in the cedar forest, where there i... 514 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:35,800 and where there are ancient stone ruins, just like the legendary story says. 515 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:40,720 So we have the stone ruins corresponding to an ancient story here. 516 00:34:40,720 --> 00:34:45,480 And this one, you can see a person standing there to give you an idea how big it is. 517 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,599 But it's about a thousand tons. 518 00:34:47,599 --> 00:34:50,960 Now, a ton is 2000 pounds, so do the math. 519 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:52,480 It's really heavy. 520 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,800 And a lot of times they were never finished moving into place, just so you know, 521 00:34:55,800 --> 00:35:00,360 they were kind of left along the way, or projects weren't completed sometimes. 522 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:06,360 But in the far left, you can see a Greek temple or a Roman temple there. 523 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:12,960 And what happened is the Greeks and the Romans came along and they saw a giant... 524 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:14,559 And they said, well, we're going to build on this. 525 00:35:14,559 --> 00:35:16,120 The platform is already here. 526 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,840 So the Greeks and Romans didn't build the platform. 527 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:22,519 And but apparently, my understanding from reading the clay tablets, Zacharias, 528 00:35:22,519 --> 00:35:31,280 the Anunnaki needed a giant platform to launch the rocket ships, the craft up into... 529 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:38,880 So that was the Baalbek, the Cedar Forest, their base of operations. 530 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,039 So this is the Bull of Heaven. 531 00:35:42,039 --> 00:35:46,639 It's I believe it's a type of Lamassu that we talked about earlier. 532 00:35:46,639 --> 00:35:48,719 And it's attacking Gilgamesh. 533 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:53,799 And the bottom line is, this is where Ishtar comes into the story. 534 00:35:53,799 --> 00:35:55,279 She's the goddess of love. 535 00:35:55,279 --> 00:35:59,719 She's seducing a lot of kings, if you read about her in ancient texts. 536 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:04,559 And she tries to seduce Gilgamesh, but he doesn't trust her. 537 00:36:04,559 --> 00:36:09,039 She's the granddaughter of Enlil, who's one of the main Anunnaki. 538 00:36:09,039 --> 00:36:10,919 And he was mean toward humans. 539 00:36:10,919 --> 00:36:13,039 He was the brother who was mean. 540 00:36:13,039 --> 00:36:17,159 And he thought human beings should be slaves and we should be building pyramids. 541 00:36:17,159 --> 00:36:23,279 And we were just there for the folly of the gods or to be workers for the gods. 542 00:36:23,279 --> 00:36:28,440 And he wanted to kill us all in the flood, just so you know, that was fine with him. 543 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:29,599 Wipe us all out. 544 00:36:29,599 --> 00:36:33,599 So she was the granddaughter of Enlil, so he didn't trust her. 545 00:36:33,599 --> 00:36:38,679 And because he was part human, I remember, maybe that had something to do with it. 546 00:36:38,679 --> 00:36:40,599 And he rejected her advances. 547 00:36:40,599 --> 00:36:44,960 And she sent this Lamassu, this monster, to try to kill him. 548 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:46,720 So that's in the story of Gilgamesh. 549 00:36:46,720 --> 00:36:48,360 And he won. 550 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,039 OK, he killed the Lamassu. 551 00:36:51,039 --> 00:36:55,360 And so that one has a happy ending. 552 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:56,880 This is in California. 553 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,480 This is the Rasa Krishan Museum. 554 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:01,400 And it's in San Jose. 555 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:07,159 And I wanted to direct your attention to right in the middle there, because there's... 556 00:37:07,159 --> 00:37:12,840 It's part hippopotamus, part human being, and its name is Tarawat. 557 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:17,760 And it was the female goddess of fertility and childbirth. 558 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:19,320 So it's just another example. 559 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:26,280 If you look at their gardens all around the Rasa Krishan Museum, there's all kinds of... 560 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:32,960 And it's just one more example of these types of beings in our long-lost, distant past. 561 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:39,000 So there's some ancient tablets I want to talk about. 562 00:37:39,079 --> 00:37:43,239 This is called the Atrahasis, and it has to do with the flood. 563 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:48,199 This talks about how the entire earth was wiped out in the flood. 564 00:37:48,199 --> 00:37:55,679 And it was an important document because it kind of related to the Bible and what the... 565 00:37:55,679 --> 00:37:59,440 So that was an important discovery. 566 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,679 And this is the Dead Sea Scrolls, where they were found. 567 00:38:02,679 --> 00:38:06,840 This is the cave in Israel. 568 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,840 And these are what the scrolls look like. 569 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:23,200 And a lot of these ancient documents, what the Dead Sea Scrolls really told us was th... 570 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:31,160 So indicating the Old Testament really hadn't changed much in 2,000 years, these... 571 00:38:31,159 --> 00:38:45,359 So in my research, I'm trying to blend the Bible with all of this new information, wi... 572 00:38:45,359 --> 00:38:46,480 And I love this picture. 573 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:54,639 It's an Easter Island, a stone statue, because a lot of times you think, well,... 574 00:38:54,639 --> 00:38:55,319 But they're not. 575 00:38:55,319 --> 00:38:56,920 They're really huge. 576 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:58,920 Some of them were like 35 feet. 577 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:03,400 And there were never a lot of people that lived on Easter Island. 578 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:04,920 That's kind of the key point. 579 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:14,320 It was just some villages and no real history of tools that would make these giant statues. 580 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,960 And about 900 of them were made. 581 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:21,000 And they were only made in one part of the island, where there's a volcano. 582 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:29,760 And they had to be carved out of the side of a volcano and lifted up and, you know, lif... 583 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:31,679 So it was a big deal. 584 00:39:31,679 --> 00:39:34,760 And they were all facing outward toward the sea. 585 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:42,199 And many researchers in my field believe that this was a big project of the Anunnaki. 586 00:39:42,199 --> 00:39:46,840 And once again, like I mentioned, a lot of them were never finished. 587 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:50,079 It was definitely an incomplete project. 588 00:39:50,119 --> 00:39:57,559 So my personal belief is the Anunnaki would just move from one place to another and... 589 00:39:57,559 --> 00:40:01,759 And they had no problem with just stopping projects in the middle. 590 00:40:01,759 --> 00:40:04,119 And because what they really wanted was the minerals. 591 00:40:04,119 --> 00:40:05,239 That's what it was about. 592 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:10,559 It was not about creating, you know, statues that would last or anything like that. 593 00:40:10,559 --> 00:40:14,440 And so this is a little bonus information. 594 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,880 Anyone ever heard of the Georgia Guidestones? 595 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:23,079 I'm including it because this monument includes the Sumerian clay tablet language... 596 00:40:23,079 --> 00:40:25,480 And like I said, nobody uses that language anymore. 597 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:30,680 Nobody knows it's not related to any of our languages, but it's in Georgia. 598 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:39,160 And in 1979 or 80, there was a businessman who said, I want some giant tablets built ... 599 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,079 And it was all a little bit mysterious. 600 00:40:41,119 --> 00:40:49,360 But he did it and he put seven languages or eight languages, and one of them was the... 601 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,159 And it's aligned to a star system. 602 00:40:52,159 --> 00:40:56,679 If you the solstice, I'm sorry, the winter solstice, if you see that little slat in t... 603 00:40:56,679 --> 00:41:03,880 And on December 21st of each year, the shortest day of the year, the sun lines up... 604 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:12,000 And so the writing in the language talks about creating a one world government,... 605 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:16,840 And it talks about depopulating down to 500 million people. 606 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:21,920 So, you know, it could be some New World Order kind of thing, and you can explore t... 607 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:25,760 So that's called the Georgia Guidestones once again. 608 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:29,680 This is a pretty recent finding, and it's called Gobekke Tope. 609 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:33,800 And how many of you saw National Geographic with this on the cover? 610 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:36,880 It made the cover of National Geographic. 611 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:44,039 And it's very extensive tablets have been found, and it's in Turkey. 612 00:41:44,039 --> 00:41:50,120 And researchers are dating this back to 9000 BC, so it's really, really old. 613 00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:56,039 We don't have a lot, like I mentioned, after or before 4000 BC. 614 00:41:56,039 --> 00:42:01,240 We have Jericho. That's a really old city that dates back to like 7500 BC. 615 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:05,079 Okay. After Jericho, not much. 616 00:42:05,079 --> 00:42:09,399 We have human beings were nomadic, just looking for food scavenging. 617 00:42:09,399 --> 00:42:14,519 And but all of a sudden, there's these extensive tablets in Turkey and Gobekke Tope. 618 00:42:14,519 --> 00:42:16,439 And they depict all kinds of animals. 619 00:42:16,439 --> 00:42:21,319 Some are not animals that are around anymore, like woolly mammoths or things like that, 620 00:42:21,319 --> 00:42:23,399 that are just animals that are extinct. 621 00:42:23,399 --> 00:42:28,039 And this site is being excavated, and it's a giant site. 622 00:42:28,039 --> 00:42:29,359 It's almost like a stone hedge. 623 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:33,599 I would compare it to that, but not as big, not as heavy stone. 624 00:42:33,599 --> 00:42:39,519 So I don't think humans built it because, like I said, they were more nomadic at tha... 625 00:42:39,519 --> 00:42:43,680 I think this is an Anunnaki settlement around 9000 BC. 626 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,440 And just so you know, there's different ways of dating stone. 627 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:51,760 There's like moss or lichen that grows on stone, and it grows really slowly. 628 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:55,519 So like just like an eighth of an inch of moss could take, you know, 10,000 years. 629 00:42:55,519 --> 00:43:00,800 So there is ways to look at stone, and I'm not saying it's accurate or it's perfect, 630 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:05,360 but you can measure the lichen growth on stones and get some kind of ballpark. 631 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:09,599 If you can find tools at a site that are organic, like a deer antler that's been 632 00:43:09,599 --> 00:43:13,679 shaped into a tool, and you know, a sheep's horn that's been shaped into a tool, 633 00:43:13,679 --> 00:43:17,440 if you can find enough of them, that can be organic, that can be carbon dated. 634 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:24,079 And if it's all coming up 9000 BC, then that's another indicator that that may be ... 635 00:43:24,079 --> 00:43:29,599 So those are some of the ways that people date some of these ancient sites. 636 00:43:29,599 --> 00:43:34,559 And then going back before 9000 BC, all I can tell you, most researchers in my field 637 00:43:34,559 --> 00:43:38,719 put the flood at 11,000 BC. If you know anything about the 638 00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:42,719 precession and we're coming up to 2012, that's exactly a halfway point in the 639 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:45,519 precession. That was exactly 13,000 years ago. 640 00:43:45,519 --> 00:43:50,960 And my understanding is the poles shifted, Atlantis sunk, and it was like a new cycle. 641 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,000 And we're coming to the end of that 13,000 year cycle right now. 642 00:43:54,559 --> 00:43:55,760 But that's a theory, okay? 643 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,559 This is a bigger picture of Gobekli Topi. 644 00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:05,280 And you can see the excavation has just begun. 645 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:10,880 Digging and finding these tablets all throughout the region. 646 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:14,079 And that's one we're just going to have to watch as it unfolds. 647 00:44:14,079 --> 00:44:16,800 And we find more and more coming out of Turkey. 648 00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:19,440 And more and more is coming out of Eastern Europe. 649 00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,400 Just so you guys know, there's pyramids that have been found in Bosnia. 650 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:26,079 And for a long time, people thought, well, they're just mountains. 651 00:44:27,039 --> 00:44:32,880 But upon closer research, there's stones that are put together and it's artificial. 652 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:38,480 So the Bosnian pyramid is another recent discovery that's very exciting. 653 00:44:39,679 --> 00:44:43,440 So these are the hieroglyphics. 654 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,840 I just wanted to show you a bit of how they look like. 655 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:49,600 And they're not, hieroglyphics are not in the main pyramids. 656 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:51,920 They're not in the three main pyramids of Giza. 657 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:53,519 They're in a lot of the smaller ones. 658 00:44:53,519 --> 00:44:58,240 But there's no writing at all in the three main pyramids of Giza. 659 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:00,160 And this is Ishtar. 660 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:02,559 We talked about her, the goddess of love. 661 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:06,720 And she is, you know, the great female goddess of Samaria. 662 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:12,640 And my understanding from reading the clay tablets is she was given the land to the... 663 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,440 And she journeyed with her entourage to India. 664 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:20,960 And that's why India has an extensive tradition of female goddesses. 665 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:24,480 Because there was a big fight over land and minerals. 666 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:29,119 It was just like us, the Anunnaki, you know, Enlil and Enki were fighting. 667 00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:34,000 Enki ended up with South Africa, that whole region, Zimbabwe. 668 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,400 And there's a lot of ancient ruins in Zimbabwe. 669 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:38,880 And Michael Tellinger talks about that. 670 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:42,480 But, and then Enlil was given the land around Persia. 671 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:45,039 We talked about the cedar forest, that big platform. 672 00:45:45,679 --> 00:45:46,800 That was his region. 673 00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:50,159 And Ishtar was given the land to the East in India. 674 00:45:51,679 --> 00:45:53,039 This is an amazing document. 675 00:45:53,039 --> 00:45:54,159 It's called the King's List. 676 00:45:54,159 --> 00:45:57,920 I mean, if you remember nothing else, I say, please remember the King's List. 677 00:45:57,920 --> 00:45:58,960 It's this big block. 678 00:45:59,519 --> 00:46:03,679 It talks about, it's just a list of kings, of rulers in the Middle East. 679 00:46:03,679 --> 00:46:05,679 And it goes back 400,000 years. 680 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:11,119 Researchers who are traditional have no problem with the bottom of the list. 681 00:46:11,119 --> 00:46:14,480 Because it talks about kings ruling for 20 years or 30 years. 682 00:46:15,199 --> 00:46:18,719 And they can correspond to other documents, like Gilgamesh is on the list. 683 00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:20,719 There's other documents that correspond. 684 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:21,920 Yes, that was a king. 685 00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:23,199 We, we agree. 686 00:46:23,199 --> 00:46:24,800 This was a real historical king. 687 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:28,559 Traditional researchers have a harder time as you move up the list. 688 00:46:28,559 --> 00:46:34,639 Because then it talks about kings ruling for a thousand years, 1500 years. 689 00:46:34,639 --> 00:46:35,440 That's not normal. 690 00:46:36,240 --> 00:46:40,000 And then at a certain point, and the King's List, there's a line that says, 691 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:41,280 and then there was a great flood. 692 00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:44,079 So there's 10, the top 10 kings are before the flood. 693 00:46:45,039 --> 00:46:47,840 And these are the Anunnaki. 694 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:52,240 And they are ruling for 10,000 years or more. 695 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:54,260 I know. 696 00:46:55,920 --> 00:47:00,320 So, so just to give you an example. 697 00:47:01,199 --> 00:47:03,760 They counted in terms of Ashar. 698 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:05,360 Ashar is 3600 years. 699 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,320 It goes back 400,000 years. 700 00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:16,400 So, I mean, your, your traditional researcher in my field believes the Anunnaki have bee... 701 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:18,720 this planet 432,000 years. 702 00:47:18,720 --> 00:47:20,800 And a lot of it is based on this King's List. 703 00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:25,200 And like I said, they counted in terms of 3600 years. 704 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:27,039 And they called that Ashar. 705 00:47:27,039 --> 00:47:30,960 And they believe that, you know, this planet rotated every 3600 years. 706 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:37,840 So it's an amazing document and it confirms that there may have been a different group 707 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:38,720 on this planet. 708 00:47:38,720 --> 00:47:43,200 And then eventually they transition from Anunnaki beings down through the years. 709 00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:44,320 You can see where it becomes. 710 00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:46,320 They turned it over to human beings. 711 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:46,640 Okay.
