The Dogon of Africa

It doesn't end there. Dr. Horn tells us that "one of the strongest exoteric pieces of evidence indicating ET visitation and interaction with human affairs comes from the Dogon tribe of West Africa...The credibility of the Dogon oral history is greatly enhanced by the fact that they have knowledge of the heavens that our scientists have only recently acquired..."
The Dogon have known for thousands of years that Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, is a double star system. That is, Sirius A, the main star, is visible to the naked eye. However, it has a companion known as Sirius B, which orbits Sirius A. Sirius B is a white dwarf and can only be seen with modern-day telescopes. How did the Dogon know that Sirius B exists?
The Dogon also know that the orbit that Sirius B takes around Sirius A is elliptical, or egg-shaped, rather than circular. We only discovered this within recent times!
The oral history of the Dogon has been faithfully passed down to each succeeding generation for thousands of years. It refers to entities from the vicinity of Sirius, who visited their ancient ancestors in an airship. The extraterrestrials taught them many things including how to live in harmony with their own divine nature.
Below are other excerpts from Humanity's Extraterrestrial Origins that raise other questions regarding our ancient history on this planet…
"I wondered for example, why the ancient Egyptians and Sumerians [5000 years ago] seemed to have been more advanced in many ways , than the much later Romans and the Europeans of the Dark Ages [500-1000 years ago]."
"Von Daniken suggested that the ancient astronauts, or extraterrestrials, had somehow given biological evolution a boost that would allow humans to be able to maintain a civilization."

"When one considers the available historical evidence of considerable ET involvement in human affairs, the scientific view [Darwinism] becomes the most unbelievable, farfetched, implausible theory of human origins and development ever put forth by humankind..."
"Could it be that Darwinism is part of a massive cover-up of the ET influence on humankind? The answer is yes..."
"Mesopotamian [Iraqi, eastern Syrian and western Iranian] historical records and other sources, including esoteric sources, indicate that ETs genetically engineered modern humans and instigated the rise of civilization."
"We will see that both positively-oriented and negatively-oriented ETs were involved in the development of humankind from the beginnings of this Earth, but that negatively oriented ETs have largely been in control of the Earth for the past several thousand years."
"The main method negatively-oriented ETs have employed to keep humankind divided and controlled is by distorting and hiding spiritual truths."
"...the good news—that positively-oriented ETs and other positive entities are trying to help humans expand their consciousness and spiritual understanding…"
"The Swiss Pleiadians talk of enormous changes that are going to take place on this planet during the coming years. They talk of a grand plan, part of which is designed to place our planet back in the hands of the 'Family of Light,' from whom it was rudely seized by the 'Family of Darkness,' some three hundred thousand years ago."
"Despite evidence of considerable ET influence on this planet, during this time of rapid change, each individual human is ultimately in charge of their own lives, their own reality, especially their own spiritual evolution."

Horn's views of an extraterrestrial presence and influence throughout our planet's history are unexplained artifacts that have been left behind for us to think and wonder about. These mysterious relics strengthen the argument that Earth has been visited by extraterrestrials and that other civilizations have existed here millions of years ago. It's hard to disprove this evidence in spite of the fact that mainstream

scientists sweep it under the rug or refute it without coherent explanation. This in-denial approach is typically the case when out-of-place artifacts challenge accepted archeological theories and beliefs and threaten their comfort zone and status quo.
I'm convinced that Earth has been visited time and time again by extraterrestrials from other star systems. I also believe that there have been instances when more advanced beings traveled here to establish colonies. On other occasions our planet has been used by groups of individuals for reincarnational purposes. It also seems plausible that both scenarios can occur simultaneously. And there are countless planets in our universe besides Earth that can serve the same purpose.
It is well known that Earth goes through continuous cycles of physical change. From time to time, a favorable window opens up making it fit for habitation by individuals with 3-dimensional physical bodies. The past 10,000 years or so has been one of those windows. During that time, we have mushroomed from a handful of ancestors to more than 6.5 billion people on a gigantic karmic adventure.
For sure, others have come before us, each with their own purpose, bad and good, peaceful and aggressive. Civilizations such as Atlantis, Lemuria, and others have been a part of this planet's history. After considering the evidence, you too may seriously consider that we are not the first to come here to use this remarkable planet for our ongoing cosmic journey.
Below is a partial list of discoveries, which strongly suggest that others have been here before us. The collective impact of this evidence deserves the serious attention of an open mind and should not be ignored…
The 1896 edition of the journal, American Anthropologist, described the discovery of a fossilized human imprint made in stone near Parkersburg, West Virginia. The track left behind was seventeen inches long. The stone it was embedded in was dated at 150 million years old. Could it belong to one of the giants described in the Bible?

~~~
In 1944 a metallic bell approximately eight inches long was found inside a large piece of coal that had been mined in West Virginia. The discovery was made by Newton Anderson. The bituminous coal that was being mined in his area of the state was estimated to be about 300 million years old.

Over the past thirty years, the Wonderstone Mine in South Africa has yielded many interesting discoveries. During that time, workers have unearthed metallic spheres ranging from 1-4 inches in diameter with mysterious parallel lines encircling them.
These mysterious metallic-like objects, known as Klerksdorp Spheres, are extremely hard, and their surface cannot be dented or scratched, even by steel.
The rock formations from which these curious spheres were extracted are considered to be 2.8 billion years old! At least 200 of these strange objects have been found.

In 1938 Chi Pu Tei was a professor of archaeology at Beijing University. While exploring caves in the Himalayan Mountains, he and his and his students made a remarkable discovery. They found hundreds of stone discs, about one foot in diameter, estimated to be twelve thousand years old.
Twenty years would pass until by Dr. Tsum Um Nui of Beijing would examine the disks. Upon close examination, he could see that hieroglyphic symbols were carved into the spiral tracks on the disk's surface.
Dr. Tsum translated part of the message that the mysterious glyphs held. Amongst other things, they told a story of spaceships piloted by people called the Dropa, who crash landed in that mountain range.
Out of fear, the local people near the crash site killed many of the crash survivors, which may have accounted for the skeletal remains found in the same cave as the Dropa Stones.
Dr. Tsum’s findings were subsequently reported in the scientific literature. Not surprisingly, his published work met with a great deal of skepticism and derision.

In the 1851 June issue of Scientific American, a report was published, which described a metallic vase that had been blasted out of solid rock by laborers doing excavation work on Meeting House Hill in the town of Dorchester, Massachusetts.
The bell-shaped vase measured 4.5 inches high and 6.5 inches at the base. Laboratory analyses showed that it was composed of an alloy consisting of zinc and silver.
The sides of the vase contained flowery figures in a beautiful bouquet arrangement that were inlaid with pure silver. The rock from which it was blasted was estimated to be 100,000 years old.
Following 150 years of on-and-off investigation, the artifact's origin remains a complete mystery. Initially, the vase was given to Harvard University. Since then it has been in the care of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, who joined with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in an attempt to determine its place and period of origin.

A coin-like object with various drawings on its surface was discovered in a well boring more than one hundred feet below the surface in the vicinity of Lawn Ridge, Illinois. Based upon the depth

of the well and the debris that was recovered, the object was estimated to be 400,000 years old.

In 1929, a group of historians found an amazing map drawn on a gazelle skin.
Subsequent research showed that it was a genuine document drawn in 1513 by Piri Reis, a famous admiral of the Turkish fleet in the sixteenth century.
The map shows mountains, streams, and various land masses in the proper size and proportion. It even shows the flow of many rivers and streams in the right direction.
Here is the astonishing fact. Most of the South Pole has been covered by ice for thousands of years and perhaps longer.
It is also a known fact that the South Pole was not discovered until 1818 more than 300 years after a copy of the original map had been made
The Piri Reis map shows the western coast of Africa, the eastern coast of South America, and the northern coast of Antarctica. The northern coastline of Antarctica underneath the ice was also perfectly detailed. Even the United States Air Force attests to its general accuracy.

In order to draw a map of such large scale and correct proportion, it would have to be argued that it was done from a point thousands of feet above the Earth. Why? Accurate maps of this sort cannot be made without sea-going clocks that provide precise measurements of latitude and longitude. These instruments were not in existence 500 years ago.

A block of marble was taken from a quarry near Philadelphia Pennsylvania during the 1800s. Letter-like shapes were discovered inside the stone slab.
The marble was extracted from the quarry at a depth of sixty-seventy feet. The rock strata that contained the marble were estimated to be 500-600 million years old.
This finding was published in the American Journal of Science in 1831.

At the end of the last ice age some 13,000 years ago, sea levels rose an estimated 400 feet. As a result, any towns, cities or villages built near a coastline would have been lost beneath the oceans.

In 1985 the ruins of a submerged city were accidently found by a local fisherman off the coast of Japan in water that was approximately 100 feet deep.
The Yonaguni Ruins, as they have come to be known, seem to be an urban development of sorts that cover 311 miles and actually includes eight individual sites.
Divers have reported that, in addition to the massive eight-story tall structures, there is also clear evidence of roads, paved streets, and huge altar-like formations, all of which has been confirmed with underwater photography.
Dr. Robert M. Schoch, a full-time faculty member at Boston University, who obtained his Ph.D. in geology and geophysics at Yale University, has conducted extensive research into the Yonaguni site, as has Professor Teruaki Ishii, a professor of geology at Tokyo University. It appears that the underwater structures are at least 8,000 years old.

Off the coast of Cuba there is another place where evidence of a sunken city is apparent. The discovery took place deep beneath the Yucatan Channel, off the coast of Guanahacabibes in western Cuba.
The Russian-Canadian oceanographer, Paulina Zelitsky, and her team have used sophisticated sonar equipment, which revealed images of symmetrically organized stone structures that are similar to an urban-like development.
The site is contained in a sizable area of approximately twenty square kilometers, and like Yonaguni, is said to include roads, pyramids, and other large structures.

In the early 1900's, Edgar Cayce predicted that evidence of the lost continent of Atlantis would appear in the Bahamas in 1968 or 1969.
In 1968 pilots photographed structures that resemble buildings, walls, and roads under the clear waters not far from the Biminis shoreline. Many aerial and underwater images show large rectangular blocks of stone laid out in sequence forming a road-like form.

In 1936 a strange battery-like vase was found in Baghdad while workers were excavating the ruins of a 2,000-year-old village.
A 6-inch high pot of bright yellow clay estimated to be 4,000 years old contained a cylinder of sheet-copper 5 inches by 1.5 inches. The outside edge of the cylinder was soldered with a 60-40 lead-tin alloy comparable to today's solder. The bottom of the cylinder was capped with a crimped-in copper disk and sealed with bitumen or asphalt.

Another layer of insulation made of asphalt sealed the top and also held in place an iron rod suspended into the center of the copper cylinder. The rod showed evidence of having been corroded with an acidic agent, which is reminiscent of today's batteries.
The mysterious object is known as the Bagdad Battery.

In the town of Ica, Peru, there is a unique collection of over 11,000 stones that were collected, organized, and analyzed by Dr. Javier Cabrera Darquea.
Over the years, Dr. Cabrera's home has turned into a museum for these curious artifacts, which are engraved with scenes of an ancient people, and are believed to be an encyclopedia of knowledge.
The stones were unearthed when the Ica River overflowed its banks years ago exposing an unknown cave.
News of the cave caught the interest of researchers, and the eyes of the world turned toward Ica.
After the BBC heard of the discovery they produced a documentary that brought more attention to the existence of the mysterious stones.
While working on the Ica Stones, Dr. Cabrera's research has identified what appears to be carved images of heart transplants, genetic manipulations, caesarian section operations, a woman with three acupuncture needles protruding from her mouth apparently used for anesthesia, humans and dinosaurs, and much, much more.

In 1898, in a tomb at Saqquara, Egypt, airplane like objects were discovered and dated to approximately 200 BCE.
Since airplanes were unknown in the days when it was found, it was thrown into a box marked "wooden bird model" and then stored in the basement of the Cairo museum.
How is it possible that plane-like models such as these, complete with tail rudders, were created more than 2,000 years ago?

During the 1930's, an extraordinary discovery was made in a mine tunnel in a small village one hundred miles southwest of Chihuahua, Mexico. At the back of the tunnel, two skeletal remains were found: a complete human skeleton and a smaller, malformed skeleton, which consisted, in part, of a strange looking skull that was human-like in form.
Tests showed that the mysterious skull was 900 years old. The skull's symmetry was breathtaking, when compared to the average human. In fact all of its bones, most of which had human counterparts, were beautifully shaped. But shaped like what?
In late February of 1999, Lloyd Pye, an American author and researcher, was first shown the Starchild Skull by its owners. He initially felt it would prove to be a rare genetic deformity of some

kind. However, subsequent studies showed that all known genetic deformities could be ruled out leaving the public and the scientific community with a bone profile never before seen on Earth.

More information describing the above discoveries, and others, can be found on the Internet. Simply do a search for "out-of-place artifacts" or "unexplained artifacts" and you will find them. Needless to say, there is misinformation surrounding these findings. I caution the reader to be discerning when sorting through the facts. In the end, draw your own conclusions and find the truth for yourself.
Regarding extraterrestrials, UFOs, past civilizations, humanity's origins, and the like, I believe they are all interrelated. One cannot ignore the fact that more than ten astronauts have pointed to the presence of UFOs, the former Defense Minister and Deputy Prime Minister of Canada, Paul Hellyer, has spoken many times in public about their presence, Congressman Dennis Kucinich, former President Jimmy Carter, various physicians such as Dr. Joseph Greer, Lynne D. Kitei, airline pilots, police officers, military personnel, and many other credible witnesses too numerous to mention have seen or spoken about the presence of UFOs. (I've even had my own experiences complete with photos). This collective evidence is more than enough to make one think and wonder about intelligent life beyond our own so long as one does so with genuine curiosity, an open mind, and a desire to know the truth.
Why is all of this so important? For one, I am convinced that our planet is on the brink of climatic change that has the potential to shift our individual and collective consciousnesses in ways we can yet imagine. Benevolent extraterrestrials may very well be apart of this shift. In fact they may have played a key role in it over the past thirty years or so by exposing us to otherworldly information, crop circles, and their actual presence in the form of various unidentified objects.
I find it truly amazing that as we approach the year 2012, and the large and small cosmic cycles that are now climaxing, this extraordinary possibility is unfolding before our very eyes. And we don't have very long to be a firsthand witness to the outcome.
