1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:19,240 This guy here is Professor Klaus Schmidt. 2 00:00:19,240 --> 00:00:27,920 Now he's the guy that we can really thank for the discovery of Quebec to Tepe. 3 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:34,800 I mean he inspected a site which had already been viewed in the 1960s and had been... 4 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:39,439 as a Byzantine cemetery, now more than a thousand years old. 5 00:00:39,439 --> 00:00:45,840 On a hunch he went there in 1994 and realised immediately that you were dealing with a... 6 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,359 very important early Neolithic site. 7 00:00:49,359 --> 00:00:53,280 I mean there were bits of carvings and things like that on the floor which he recognised 8 00:00:53,439 --> 00:00:58,560 because he'd been working in this region anyway on other early Neolithic sites. 9 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:05,599 And it's just as well because that very mountainside was actually scheduled to bec... 10 00:01:05,599 --> 00:01:11,359 on all the rock that was going to be used in a major road that was just about to be 11 00:01:11,359 --> 00:01:12,799 constructed below. 12 00:01:12,799 --> 00:01:17,359 And thank God he found it when he did because otherwise the whole lot would have been... 13 00:01:17,359 --> 00:01:21,200 So you know, I mean there's a lot of things said about Klaus Schmidt and his ideas and 14 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:27,680 rest of it but you know this guy we really have to thank for this. 15 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,439 Now the reason for putting him up there there is that we'll come straight on to some of 16 00:01:31,439 --> 00:01:34,560 the meat of what we're going to be talking about here. 17 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:40,159 And that's the fact that he's a very forward thinking guy and he's said some very, very 18 00:01:40,159 --> 00:01:43,439 enigmatic things about Quebec to Tepe. 19 00:01:43,439 --> 00:01:49,520 And one of them is the fact that in his opinion this is somehow associated with th... 20 00:01:49,519 --> 00:01:51,039 of Eden. 21 00:01:51,039 --> 00:01:56,319 And I think that basically what he said was Quebec to Tepe is the Garden of Eden although 22 00:01:56,319 --> 00:02:00,399 I've actually talked to him about this and he said that it was a temple in the Garden 23 00:02:00,399 --> 00:02:04,560 of Eden and he claims he was misquoting whatever but that's irrelevant. 24 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,159 The fact is that this story made news all the way around the world. 25 00:02:08,159 --> 00:02:10,800 Has the Garden of Eden been discovered? 26 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,759 So is there any truth in that? 27 00:02:13,759 --> 00:02:19,039 Well obviously we know that the Garden of Eden is where Adam and Eve, our first parents 28 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:26,319 according to Judeo-Christian tradition and obviously in the Quranic tradition, were 29 00:02:26,319 --> 00:02:34,799 before they were tempted by the serpent and suddenly realised that they were naked, lost 30 00:02:34,799 --> 00:02:39,680 their innocence and God said what the hell have you done and booted them out basically 31 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:44,479 never to return to the Garden of Eden, the earthly paradise. 32 00:02:44,719 --> 00:02:49,599 And from that point onwards other than one or two exceptions nobody supposedly has ever 33 00:02:49,599 --> 00:02:50,959 returned to Eden. 34 00:02:52,079 --> 00:02:54,719 So that's the way that it's essentially said. 35 00:02:54,719 --> 00:03:01,120 But there's some interesting geography associated with the earthly paradise becau... 36 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:08,159 that from there, from its actual location, the four rivers of paradise took their head. 37 00:03:09,199 --> 00:03:14,399 And those four rivers which you can see here obviously is a representation from the 17th 38 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,560 century of the Garden of Eden. 39 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,120 These four rivers then water the world. 40 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:26,719 Well the Bible, the book of Genesis, quite specifically says what these rivers are and 41 00:03:26,719 --> 00:03:32,640 two of them can easily be identified as the river Euphrates and the Tigris that run all 42 00:03:32,640 --> 00:03:40,480 the way from the Armenian highlands down through south east Turkey through Iraq and... 43 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,080 empty into the Persian Gulf. 44 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,800 So there are two of the rivers of paradise so quite clearly the Garden of Eden, the 45 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,120 earthly paradise has to be somewhere along there. 46 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:54,400 Well in many evil times they thought it was very close to the Persian Gulf itself but 47 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:59,840 the Armenians, the people that lived in these lands, you know all the scholars and... 48 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:04,640 right there said no no no no no it's obviously at the other end for the simple... 49 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:10,240 the other two rivers, one of them can pretty easily be identified as the Arxes river that 50 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:15,200 flows in from the Caspian Sea and also takes its rise in the Armenian highlands. 51 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:19,280 And the fourth one's more contentious but there are traditions going back probably 52 00:04:19,280 --> 00:04:25,040 at least to the first century AD to associate it with the Great Tzad river which is... 53 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:33,920 one of the branches of the Tigris and that also takes its rise in the area of the... 54 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:39,280 highlands, in fact just to the south within the eastern Taurus range just below this huge 55 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:47,839 inland lake called Lake Vaan. So this area that I've ringed here is exactly where it is 56 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:53,919 and even the map makers right the way through to the the 18th century, this is the Buak 57 00:04:53,919 --> 00:05:02,639 Buak map from 1783, actually shows Eden exactly where it should be just to the wes... 58 00:05:02,639 --> 00:05:10,479 Vaan here it says here Eden or the paradise the earthly paradise okay so you know the... 59 00:05:10,479 --> 00:05:16,560 it's there is nothing new I mean you know it's been known for many many centuries bu... 60 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:23,279 popular theory was that it was further south in southern Iraq close to the Persian Gulf... 61 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:28,240 tell you that is wrong I'm sorry this this unquestionably is the right answer so that 62 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:37,199 brings us into the correct area there we go and where's Gebekli Tepe? It's there okay... 63 00:05:37,199 --> 00:05:44,079 the edge of what might be seen as the earthly paradise in fact I mean it's probably abou... 64 00:05:44,079 --> 00:05:50,079 miles if you went to the northeast from Gebekli Tepe it would bring you into the... 65 00:05:50,079 --> 00:05:55,360 the Garden of Eden as far as I'm concerned so it's on the edge of it so Schmidt making that 66 00:05:55,360 --> 00:06:03,199 connection is a real one there's no problem with that and Gebekli Tepe is very close t... 67 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:10,480 city of what's known today as Shun Lurfa it was actually known as Urfa or it's the Ode... 68 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:18,319 Bible but also it's the traditional site of a place called Ur of the Chaldeans and Ur of... 69 00:06:18,319 --> 00:06:23,840 is where Abraham supposedly was born and hailed from and there are shrines here thi... 70 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:30,639 Pools of Abraham which even today are sites of pilgrimages people come from all over 71 00:06:30,639 --> 00:06:38,079 Turkey to venerate Abraham at his birthplace which is inside a cave here and I do believe 72 00:06:38,079 --> 00:06:44,479 personally this is the real Ur of the Chaldeans even though the British... 73 00:06:44,479 --> 00:06:51,199 Woolley in the early part of the 20th century discovered another city called Ur in Iran... 74 00:06:51,199 --> 00:06:57,439 then became the the official Ur of the Chaldeans but Chaldeans is a word very... 75 00:06:57,439 --> 00:07:03,519 on to that shortly anyway and the reason being is that very close to Ur of the... 76 00:07:03,519 --> 00:07:12,480 Gebekli Tepe only about 20, 30 miles away from there is a very important ancient cit... 77 00:07:13,439 --> 00:07:22,160 all right and this is what it looks like today now Iran is known as the the city of... 78 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:28,560 worshippers a people's known as the savians but their actual race was known as the... 79 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:36,879 and although the city of Iran itself probably only goes back to about two three thousand BC 80 00:07:37,519 --> 00:07:42,399 it was built on the site of an occupational mound that goes back at least to 6000 BC 81 00:07:42,959 --> 00:07:50,159 and it's thought that the people here moved from another occupational mound that goes... 82 00:07:50,159 --> 00:07:58,240 to 8000 BC in other words it's 10 000 years old and that other first occupational mound 83 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:04,159 is known as Tel Idres now one of the things I did mention with the picture here is that 84 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:14,320 one of the founders of Shamur for the Chaldeans was said to have been a... 85 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:22,480 of the book of Genesis name of Enoch and the mound which is supposed to be the start point 86 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:31,200 of haram is known as Tel Idres right Idres is the Arabic name for Enoch and this guy Eno... 87 00:08:31,199 --> 00:08:38,559 important not only to local traditions but also to the story which we're telling here... 88 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:44,080 because Enoch as I said he was an anti-deluvian patriarchy he was at the sam... 89 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:48,799 you know and all that and eventually you come to Enoch he was a great grandfather of Noa... 90 00:08:48,799 --> 00:08:54,720 instance and the traditional story that you'll read is that he was transported by ... 91 00:08:54,720 --> 00:09:00,240 at the end of his life and the the vision you get is what you see here is that the angel... 92 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:06,159 lifted him up and up he went to heaven but some of the accounts suggest that he went... 93 00:09:06,159 --> 00:09:10,320 garden of Eden the terrestrial paradise in other words that this was some kind of 94 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:17,440 physical journey that he actually made and you know that links him right into the area 95 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:24,399 that we're talking about so it makes sense for his life and his the foundation of the... 96 00:09:24,399 --> 00:09:32,639 or rest of it to be associated with the very area next to the garden of Eden now he's... 97 00:09:32,639 --> 00:09:38,639 with the writing of one of the weirdest religious texts of history the book of of... 98 00:09:38,639 --> 00:09:45,199 right the book of Enoch okay now the earliest forms of this found within the Dead Sea... 99 00:09:45,199 --> 00:09:52,720 they probably date to about the the first second century BC however their fragments ... 100 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,720 text known as the book of Noah which almost certainly come from oral traditions that go 101 00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:07,040 all the way back basically and what the book of Enoch tells us is that Enoch one day wa... 102 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:15,360 and he was visited by two angels now the angels here are actually referred to as... 103 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:22,480 Hebrew term is actually irin which is a Hebrew word which means basically to watch... 104 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:29,200 that watch basically which we obviously interpret in English as watchers and they... 105 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:34,879 obviously Mark presumably was still awake and you know they're at the end of his bed or... 106 00:10:34,879 --> 00:10:42,159 it was and they say to him do you fancy going off with us to the seven heavens so he sai... 107 00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:48,960 and so they take him off to the seven heavens which probably in sense of purposes is like a 108 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:56,960 air journey over this landscape of volcanoes and mountains and seas and lakes and... 109 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:04,080 the rest of it and amongst these seven heavens is the earthly paradise i.e. the... 110 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:11,040 is actually named the garden of righteousness in the book of Enoch and yes the four rive... 111 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:18,560 from there but whilst he's there they take him to the abode of the angels and bear in... 112 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:23,439 guard the garden of Eden so they're directly associated with that so somewhere within... 113 00:11:23,439 --> 00:11:31,519 seven heavens let's say somehow geographically related is the abode of the... 114 00:11:31,519 --> 00:11:40,879 abode of the watchers and he gets there and there's a prison a dungeon and there's... 115 00:11:40,879 --> 00:11:47,519 watchers inside this dungeon and Enoch says to his angelic guides you know these watch... 116 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,639 you know these archangels basically said you know what have they done to deserve that 117 00:11:53,679 --> 00:12:00,799 and he is told that 200 of their number 200 rebels have descended and taken mortal lives 118 00:12:00,799 --> 00:12:07,279 revealing the secret arts of heaven and for which they you know they were rounded up 119 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:13,279 incarcerated and put in prison and that's why they're there now i mean it's said that they 120 00:12:13,279 --> 00:12:17,439 descended down from heaven so you get the impression of them coming down from heaven 121 00:12:17,439 --> 00:12:23,279 landing on the top of a mountain which is known as herman which by the way i do not... 122 00:12:23,279 --> 00:12:30,399 the mount herman on the borders of of israel lebanon and syria almost certainly these... 123 00:12:30,959 --> 00:12:35,199 and you know there's there's lots of good evidence for this originally came from the... 124 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:42,080 southeast turkey and were transposed into the area of what is today israel palestine... 125 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:49,920 by the israelites under abraham or certainly the historical version of those the earlie... 126 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:58,320 work in the world was found in the era of eastern turkey goes back to about 9 000 bc... 127 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:05,120 to start with and then smelted copper and smelted lead a place called chaonu again v... 128 00:13:05,279 --> 00:13:12,960 to gebeki tepe and this is an interesting one the earliest mirrors in the world 129 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:19,840 come from from southern central turkey not exactly the area of gebeki tepe but the... 130 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:25,360 created them was almost certainly directly descended of it there are two sites one... 131 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:31,840 a chicli hoyak and the other chattel hoyak which both date to about seven to eight... 132 00:13:32,399 --> 00:13:37,280 you find the first mirrors the first polish mirrors they're made of volcanic glass known 133 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:44,000 as obsidian you can see a couple of examples here and what's so interesting about this ... 134 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:50,879 amongst all these firsts that the watches are supposedly given to humankind was metal work 135 00:13:50,879 --> 00:13:58,800 which we've seen here began in southeast turkey and also the first mirrors it says ... 136 00:13:58,879 --> 00:14:05,679 they gave us the first mirrors i mean it might be a coincidence but is it possible... 137 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:11,839 the accounts of the watches in the book of enoch is actually a forgotten memory of an... 138 00:14:11,839 --> 00:14:19,519 human history you know is it recalled in the book of enoch itself and were the watches ... 139 00:14:19,519 --> 00:14:26,000 movers the paralel as clauchemac calls them behind the construction of the back to the... 140 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:33,759 they cause their in their appearance in southeast turkey did that cause or trigger... 141 00:14:33,759 --> 00:14:40,960 revolution well that is exactly what i said in a book in nine that was published in 19... 142 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:48,879 written in 1994 1995 which basically said exactly now but at that point 143 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:55,439 it was going to go back to the tapas for the first time in 1994 the first activations... 144 00:14:55,439 --> 00:15:03,120 1995 and we didn't know about it until 2000 it was brought to my attention the first t... 145 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:10,320 i couldn't believe it it was like the smoking gun of everything i'd written in in in the 146 00:15:10,879 --> 00:15:17,600 in in reactions of angels i just couldn't believe it and it was just so synchronous 147 00:15:18,879 --> 00:15:26,879 and i must thank debbie benstead here a good friend of mine psychic who was the first... 148 00:15:26,879 --> 00:15:33,760 that put me on to this area of the world and said this is where you will find you know... 149 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:39,120 elements of your lost civilization which we felt at that time had strong links to some... 150 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:45,519 um culture advanced culture living in in egypt so thank you then for that because... 151 00:15:45,519 --> 00:15:51,360 i would not have written that book um just here in the audience for the day by the way 152 00:15:51,360 --> 00:16:00,799 um anyway now this is a great idea it's all right i get excited um okay because it's n... 153 00:16:00,799 --> 00:16:07,680 that says this our good friend claus schmidt said in an interview in 2007 the stones at... 154 00:16:08,159 --> 00:16:14,399 erected for the watchman of the period watchman is one of the terms that's used i... 155 00:16:14,959 --> 00:16:20,399 for the watchers i mean was it i mean i've not talked to him about this and it may ju... 156 00:16:20,399 --> 00:16:25,839 been a coincidence but i don't think so he's aware of the book of enoc and he knows the... 157 00:16:25,839 --> 00:16:31,599 about the fact that the watchers may well be advanced human beings as opposed to you know 158 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:37,840 incorporeal beings come down from heaven and there's another major clue at haram 159 00:16:39,279 --> 00:16:44,080 because one of the other books that records the story of the watchers and probably dates 160 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:48,879 to a similar period and also been found in fragments within the dead sea scrolls is the 161 00:16:48,879 --> 00:16:55,440 book of jubilees and the book of jubilees tells the story of the watchers and relate... 162 00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:02,480 the legendary founder of haram right which is so close to gabeck and tap a fact you can... 163 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:09,360 see the mountains on which the beck and tap is from haram uncovered an inscription car... 164 00:17:09,360 --> 00:17:16,480 stone stealer by you know an inscribed standing stone when translated it was foun... 165 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:24,559 the anti-deluvian science of astrology as talked by the watchers now i mean that's... 166 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:31,759 you know and that to me that's beyond coincidence now the inhabitants of the ram... 167 00:17:31,759 --> 00:17:38,880 savians or chow deans the race was a chow dean race they were astrologers astronomer... 168 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:48,880 diviners and their progenitor was a an anti-deluvian patriarch called afraqsad wh... 169 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:55,680 he was seen to have been the founder of the chow dean race itself and um they're... 170 00:17:55,680 --> 00:18:05,120 there so in other words is it possible that the astronomy that was eventually practice... 171 00:18:05,120 --> 00:18:13,200 star worshipers these sabians at haram whose city goes back 10 000 years to the very ti... 172 00:18:13,360 --> 00:18:19,279 the back to take a pain from a short distance away at the back to take a cell well let's... 173 00:18:19,279 --> 00:18:26,319 at the more at the back to take well on the left is a stone that we like to refer to a... 174 00:18:26,319 --> 00:18:34,799 stone it's pillar 43 and it's enclosure d and on it is this very strange vulture with these 175 00:18:34,799 --> 00:18:41,519 articulated arms these huge clown feet and there's no question that it's anthropomorp... 176 00:18:41,519 --> 00:18:48,160 words it has a human-like qualities either it's a shaman dressed as a vulture or it's... 177 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:54,480 with human-like qualities um and there's various other things on here which we'll t... 178 00:18:54,480 --> 00:19:00,639 there's a big scorpion here another bird the rest of that and vulture imagery is one of... 179 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:07,279 things that you'll find at gobekli tape and other outlying sites from the early neolithic 180 00:19:07,279 --> 00:19:12,639 from the same age there's lots of vulture imagery so why is vultures so important here 181 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:18,720 well we've mentioned it before but chatel hoyak the first city in the world 182 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:25,680 was constructed by the descendants of the back to take certainly you know the cultur... 183 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:33,759 close to them and on the wall it shows this incredible image which is excarnation towers 184 00:19:33,759 --> 00:19:38,960 here you can see these now excarnation is something that's practiced or certainly was 185 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:45,279 practiced by the zoroastrians and their indian form the parses and it's still... 186 00:19:45,279 --> 00:19:51,599 tabak today it's known as sky bearings where the vultures will come down pick clean the... 187 00:19:52,879 --> 00:19:58,319 they'll go away and then other scavengers will come in you know smaller scavengers a... 188 00:19:58,399 --> 00:20:04,159 the bones will be collected up and put into what's known as a secondary or a... 189 00:20:04,159 --> 00:20:10,480 burial within a tomb or something like that and this is unquestionably what is being... 190 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:15,759 but look there's two different things going on here here you've got vultures that are... 191 00:20:15,759 --> 00:20:23,200 this this headless figure now as we'll see almost certainly that represents the body... 192 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:29,200 and here on this other tower you've got these two vultures that seem to be taking under... 193 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:37,279 a head in this form here now almost certainly and i'm not not just making this up this i... 194 00:20:37,279 --> 00:20:43,120 various symbologists would have said this represents the soul this represents the hu... 195 00:20:43,120 --> 00:20:50,480 and this represents the vultures will be taking it accompanying it into the afterli... 196 00:20:51,120 --> 00:20:57,839 okay um and the soul was represented as a head like this i mean obviously there's a... 197 00:20:57,839 --> 00:21:04,079 associated with the early mythic in this region anywhere they venerate the skull an... 198 00:21:04,079 --> 00:21:12,799 with the ancestors via it and we have the same imagery at go back to tepe at the bot... 199 00:21:12,799 --> 00:21:19,919 you have a headless figure with his with his arm up like that see no head right and he'... 200 00:21:19,919 --> 00:21:24,319 back of this bird that could be a vulture might be something else it's certainly got... 201 00:21:24,319 --> 00:21:30,720 maybe almost as if that bird's carrying this this this person or the impression is taki... 202 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:38,079 bond as it were you've got the scorpion here but then up here you've got this ball on t... 203 00:21:38,079 --> 00:21:43,599 almost as if it's like cupping it now i've got good academic books that say that balls 204 00:21:44,159 --> 00:21:49,679 were the most abstract form of the representation of the soul in the form of ... 205 00:21:49,679 --> 00:21:56,240 early lift neolithic so that is the soul being represented up here and there's a... 206 00:21:56,240 --> 00:22:04,879 down here it's the same imagery at chatel huayah there's the ball here so that ball 207 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:13,040 represents both the head and the soul of of let's say the deceased obviously the soul ... 208 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:19,680 deceased maybe even the unborn souls coming in would be represented or does it also... 209 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:27,040 the soul of a shaman a shaman who was seen to make that same journey during ecstatic sta... 210 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:33,840 outer body experiences you know under the influence under you know altered states of... 211 00:22:33,839 --> 00:22:44,000 yes i think is the answer and this is a statue of a bird man let's say a bird sham... 212 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:49,599 a vulture shaman from the early neolithic from a site called nevali chori not far fr... 213 00:22:49,599 --> 00:22:54,799 tepee now sadly underwater i'll just put here note the hood because we'll be coming back... 214 00:22:54,799 --> 00:22:59,839 look the hood is wearing the hood obviously some kind of headdress going on here 215 00:23:00,319 --> 00:23:06,079 um now the book of enoch tells us that the watchers were adorned in feather coats 216 00:23:06,079 --> 00:23:11,279 um this is very strange it doesn't the original forms of the book of enoch said... 217 00:23:11,279 --> 00:23:17,839 these angels the watchers wearing sorry having wings that comes during early... 218 00:23:17,839 --> 00:23:24,879 but there is one very specific region and various other references in the book of en... 219 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:32,000 enoch material that suggests that the watchers were birdmen does this describe t... 220 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:40,320 shamans at the early neolithic almost certainly it does so if these were shamans... 221 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:45,760 back to the watches in a minute but if these were shamans where's their cosmic zone as the 222 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:52,320 as the anthropologists like to refer to where these shamans think that they go 223 00:23:52,319 --> 00:23:59,200 during their ecstatic experiences i realized last year when i went to go back to tepee... 224 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:10,799 just uncovered a new stone directly in line with the mean azimuth of the the the... 225 00:24:10,799 --> 00:24:16,960 thing which is the most complete probably constructed around 9400 9500 bc so that if 226 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:21,519 you stood between the twin pillars you would be looking if you were looking north you'd... 227 00:24:21,519 --> 00:24:27,680 straight at this stone here it's quite a large stone five six foot tall a hole in i... 228 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:32,720 across right and it's got these imagery around it which i think is an abstract wom... 229 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:38,799 represents a vulva although that's that's my opinion at the moment so what would they b... 230 00:24:38,799 --> 00:24:45,279 standing between there looking at the stone well on its own maybe it's a coincidence but 231 00:24:45,519 --> 00:24:52,240 but next to it is the vulture stone okay here's here's the whole stone there's the... 232 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:59,920 then that's a clue in itself but when we were on the tour the origins of civilization tour 233 00:24:59,920 --> 00:25:04,799 in september with him and various people in this audience i actually discovered that... 234 00:25:04,799 --> 00:25:11,200 identical stone or more or less identical stone in enclosure c which don't seem to h... 235 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:17,279 mentioned i mean it's and it's there i'll show you look there it is and there it is... 236 00:25:17,279 --> 00:25:20,880 the stone and it's exactly the same position but this one's fallen on its side it's not... 237 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:26,799 properly excavated yet it's been numbered pillar 59 but you won't find a word about ... 238 00:25:26,799 --> 00:25:32,000 there's nothing about it nothing about this whole stone being there it's the same the... 239 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:40,319 the same size maybe just slightly larger and it's on its side and it's exactly in line... 240 00:25:40,319 --> 00:25:46,079 there in fact that's where the archaeologists have put it on the plan and if you turned ... 241 00:25:46,079 --> 00:25:51,759 it would be there exactly in line so you've got a whole stone exactly in line so if yo... 242 00:25:51,759 --> 00:25:58,480 between the twin pillars again in the two oldest and most complete and most marvelou... 243 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:04,879 you've got this these holes so what do these hold stones actually represent you know... 244 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:12,320 the one in d here's the one to turn that on its side in c well what are they the answe... 245 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:21,120 so holes so holes seal and lock in german where this tradition is much stronger than... 246 00:26:21,120 --> 00:26:26,160 is let's say britain or certain other parts of the world and seal and lock is is the t... 247 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:33,200 that smith uses because he also found these strange stone ribs that were laying on the... 248 00:26:33,279 --> 00:26:40,080 obviously came from one or other of the um that the enclosures were now displaced and... 249 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:45,279 that they could be soul holes so this is not some wow idea that i just hooked up but he... 250 00:26:45,279 --> 00:26:52,640 mentioned anything about his other ones now here is examples of megalithic structures ... 251 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:58,480 all with so-called soul holes and this is part of local tradition and even... 252 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:05,279 to accept that that these could be for the passage of the spirit from within the dolmens 253 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:13,360 through the soul hole towards some kind of sky world or whatever now one of the great... 254 00:27:13,360 --> 00:27:19,759 the greatest concentration of megalithic structures with soul holes is in the Cauca... 255 00:27:19,759 --> 00:27:26,319 that far from the beckley tepe and here you have incredible dolmens which officially h... 256 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:34,639 thousand three thousand vc with beautiful carvings on incredible monuments over three 257 00:27:34,639 --> 00:27:41,039 thousand of them that have actually been recorded with these similar holes some of... 258 00:27:41,039 --> 00:27:48,000 larger are larger but often you can't get through them um and these are obviously pa... 259 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:52,480 megalithic culture now some people suggest they're much older but there's not that mu... 260 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:58,079 it and although obviously the dolmens are probably for the dead in front of them are... 261 00:27:58,799 --> 00:28:04,000 and you can see this example i think q actually showed this picture and here's yo... 262 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:09,599 there's your your facade or your pothole stone and here's the wall around it so all... 263 00:28:09,599 --> 00:28:17,039 activity would be done here facing towards that exactly like the backlit tepe and in... 264 00:28:17,039 --> 00:28:22,399 found out these were a few thousand years old it would not surprise me at all this is... 265 00:28:22,399 --> 00:28:29,200 descendancy of the same culture no question about this at all and these again are seen... 266 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:35,599 with the soul and the passage of the soul so what is this soul hole well it comes from... 267 00:28:35,599 --> 00:28:41,839 tradition it's there in shamanic art around the world it's there within near-death... 268 00:28:41,839 --> 00:28:47,679 altered states of consciousness lots of experiments done in modern terms that when... 269 00:28:47,679 --> 00:28:53,359 are in an altered state they will see a hole and they'll go through this hole and it will 270 00:28:53,359 --> 00:28:59,359 become a funnel or a tunnel and it will lead you into either the underworld or the sky... 271 00:29:00,159 --> 00:29:06,240 i mean obviously different traditions this is um from the amazon the designer shaman's d... 272 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:14,079 pacifically done i mean this uh this guy um uh rycol mcdormitoff has written a lot abo... 273 00:29:14,079 --> 00:29:18,640 and basically said this is what this represents the the way it's almost wound-l... 274 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:24,799 and that's exactly what i think that the stones at the backlit tepe are all about s... 275 00:29:24,799 --> 00:29:30,000 to the backlit if you're standing between them looking through your soul holes what ... 276 00:29:31,519 --> 00:29:35,440 you're looking through there what do you see during the time frame of construction well 277 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:44,400 enclosure d the carbon 14 dates give us a rough average of around 9400 bc if you loo... 278 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:49,680 stood between the twin pillars at that time through the soul hole you would see the... 279 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:57,200 of the star denny in the constellation of sickness setting um on the horizon and 280 00:29:57,839 --> 00:30:04,319 denny and sickness actually marks the position of what's known as the dark rift ... 281 00:30:04,319 --> 00:30:10,079 or also known as the sickness rift the opening within the milky way caused by... 282 00:30:10,079 --> 00:30:16,639 that creates like this sort of dark line down the center of it that's been universally seen 283 00:30:16,639 --> 00:30:22,639 around the world particularly my tradition for instance as an entrance and exit to th... 284 00:30:23,759 --> 00:30:31,359 so what do we know about sickness well obviously generally it's a a bird of some... 285 00:30:31,439 --> 00:30:38,559 normally within eurasian tradition it's a swan although it can be a hog an eagle in... 286 00:30:38,559 --> 00:30:48,079 countries bird of paradise in the south seas a magpie in china etc etc but on the... 287 00:30:48,079 --> 00:30:54,399 it's a vulture or was originally a vulture even though the vulture became associated... 288 00:30:54,480 --> 00:31:00,720 star constellation next to it which is the constellation of lyra but you'll find that 289 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:08,640 that originally sickness was also seen as a a sky vulture basically on the ephrates river 290 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:16,320 so this vulture represents this point of entry and exit into the sky world marked n... 291 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:23,519 the bright star denny in sickness but also the opening of the great rift and that's w... 292 00:31:23,519 --> 00:31:30,799 would see if you look through those those soul holes in both enclosures d and c at g... 293 00:31:30,799 --> 00:31:38,879 tawhai in the time frame of their construction and this seems to be represen... 294 00:31:38,879 --> 00:31:44,000 stone the vulture stone is here which i showed you before there's the the circle... 295 00:31:44,799 --> 00:31:51,200 the guy the the disart you know articulated guy with his head missing okay 10 minutes ... 296 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:58,960 and here's sickness up here others have represented it sickness scorpio has been... 297 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:04,240 the scorpion with his constellation scorpius where to rise and it's a passage of the of... 298 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:13,600 soul going from earth to heaven from the scorpio here up the great rift up to there... 299 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:18,799 destination of souls the deceased and those are shamans the milky way's great rift at ... 300 00:32:18,799 --> 00:32:25,919 which is the great birth sickness okay and even at chattel hayek obviously where all ... 301 00:32:25,919 --> 00:32:33,119 shamans were depicted here is one of those shrines this is where all that vulture... 302 00:32:33,839 --> 00:32:38,799 here this is what was shown there is that the mattress to show it it was in the north... 303 00:32:38,799 --> 00:32:46,319 no question that this is associated with the north but who are who were the watchers th... 304 00:32:46,319 --> 00:32:53,679 or shamans go back to cafe well the watchers are described as tall albinos white hair... 305 00:32:53,679 --> 00:32:58,879 ruddish skin within the book of enot now we're not saying that that's all of them b... 306 00:32:58,879 --> 00:33:04,879 the descriptions it's given up they've got otherworldly eyes long faces described as... 307 00:33:04,879 --> 00:33:09,359 like vipers when described now we're not saying they're all like this but if we're... 308 00:33:09,359 --> 00:33:17,199 some kind of anthropological anatomical you know um thing then something's connected w... 309 00:33:17,199 --> 00:33:21,439 seems to mean something that's why it was recorded down maybe there was some amongst... 310 00:33:21,439 --> 00:33:26,879 like this and those were the ones that were most memorable and were passed down in ora... 311 00:33:28,079 --> 00:33:35,359 and obviously much later the ubaid statues a cult a cult called the ubaid 5000 4000 bc 312 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:42,879 were representing these serpent-headed figures both male and female with these... 313 00:33:42,879 --> 00:33:48,879 or headdresses on top even the babies are shown a serpent again is this a memory of... 314 00:33:48,879 --> 00:33:53,919 beings the first gods or whatever that goes all the way back to the time of the becky... 315 00:33:55,759 --> 00:34:01,759 professor claude schmidt also said that he believed that the builder gods of the... 316 00:34:01,759 --> 00:34:07,920 tradition the anarchy almost certainly were the founders of of gabbak to tap a says th... 317 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:14,400 book this is not speculation he actually writes this down and he even speculates th... 318 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:20,880 the mountain on which the

impact... 330 00:35:34,159 --> 00:35:39,439 certainly recognized now by science 10 900 bc graham will be talking a lot about this 331 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:45,119 graham phillips will be talking about another comet event much later but graham hancock... 332 00:35:45,119 --> 00:35:48,559 be talking about this event just coming back from america we've been interviewing some of 333 00:35:48,960

there as early as 13 000 bc 353 00:37:58,079 --> 00:38:05,599 but to be honest i think it was just a small part of a much bigger picture 354 00:38:07,119 --> 00:38:14,240 and from my new book the back to tap a genesis of the gods i've discovered someth... 355 00:38:14,240 --> 00:38:22,960 i think because i found a trail of a particular type of flint arrowhead which g... 356 00:38:22,960 -->

sophisticated stone blades as much as two feet and in a sophisticated 360 00:38:58,559 --> 00:39:06,319 has never been seen they appeared on the scene around 20 22 000 years ago and then... 361 00:39:06,319 --> 00:39:13,119 around 15 000 bc although i found that they almost certainly they continued on and that 362 00:39:13,119 --> 00:39:22,880 their descendants that start with were in the

found look similar styles as what you find at the bac... 368 00:39:59,039 --> 00:40:06,079 and also recently you've probably heard that almost certainly the salutrients got on boats 369 00:40:07,039

clovis people that i... 371 00:40:19,519 --> 00:40:25,039 earlier on there's a book you must get across the ice that goes into this in huge detail 372 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:32,159 and so in other words that the the the salutrient people that were in western eur... 373 00:40:32,159 --> 00:40:38,079 in the states and presumably you know the rest of of the american continent as well... 374

the inuect 379 00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:17,519 but they they seem very very similar and 380 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:28,000 this you've probably seen from lascaux in in southern france obviously it shows this... 381 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:34,559 with this bird on a pole we're here now this is unquestionably been linked to the... 382 00:41:34,559 --> 00:41:40,559 of cygnus by professor michael ruck and ruck and gluck of munich university interpreted... 383 00:41:40,559 --> 00:41:46,880 scene as astronomical showing the area of the dark red cygnus and whatever and it's a fact 384 00:41:48,079 --> 00:41:52,239 and i talk about this in the book that almost certainly there was a secret society 385 00:41:52,319 --> 00:41:56,799 cult within the salutrients that was that was focused around the bird 386 00:41:58,079 --> 00:42:01,759 not the vulture necessarily but obviously there would have been different birds this... 387 00:42:01,759 --> 00:42:08,079 lascaux this is from um this is rock art actual rock art from rock desurs where you... 388 00:42:08,079 --> 00:42:13,599 those earlier stone blocks and this is just a comparison from the vinca culture of eastern 389 00:42:13,599 --> 00:42:19,359 europe to show what these bird abstract bird faces look all of them not that obviously ... 390 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:25,200 and other examples that i give in the book so in other words they had a cult of the bird... 391 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:33,280 seems to be associated with with cygnus and as far as i'm concerned they got all the way 392 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:39,760 to go back to tapai they moved probably not in one generation but in a couple of... 393 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:45,120 maybe slightly i don't know they moved from the carpathian mountains all the way to go... 394 00:42:45,839 --> 00:42:52,559 where i believe they became the power elite the prime movers motivating the local people 395 00:42:53,599 --> 00:42:59,039 into the construction of these monuments now why exactly they they might well i'm going... 396 00:42:59,039 --> 00:43:03,599 that today because i really haven't got time but it's to do with the fact that it's jus... 397 00:43:03,599 --> 00:43:10,960 huge cataclysm i think you want bad things to happen again so what did this race really... 398 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:19,679 like you saw billy walker john's image of the uh of the um the watcher shown earlier tha... 399 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:25,440 constructed reconstructed from the descriptions in the book of eno but did th... 400 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:33,519 look like that well we

00:43:48,639 what they look like what they wore and their sophisticated god they wore tailored clothes 403 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:54,239 and i'm going to show you now what we believe these people look like this is the closest i 404 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:54,959 think you're going to come 405 00:43:58,959 --> 00:44:06,319 notice the very large jaws very high the forehead very thick forehead very
