ancient petroglyphs

Hello all-Not sure where to post this but for now...

Ancient Language of Universal Symbols Discovered
Over the last several years, similar petroglyphs have been identified on as many as five continents. They all date from roughly the same time-period. In the late 20th century, archaeologists discovered a collection of symbols carved in stone as petroglyphs in the Negev desert of Israel that appeared to be writing. Dating of these symbols showed that they were made over an extended period time, beginning around 1700 BC.


This strange collection of symbols was first examined by Dr. James Harris, a petroglyph expert and archaeologist from Brigham Young University. He identified the alphabet as being a proto-Canaanite system, which successfully translated by using old-Hebrew or Thalmudic phonetic sounds.

Earlier, William McGlone, an amateur archaeologist and retired space engineer, discovered the same collection of symbols carved in heavily patinated stones surrounding the Southeast town of La Junta, Colorado. Dating of the patina corresponded to the same era as the writing found in Harkarkom in Israel.

The petroglyphs in Colorado were photographed and posted on the Internet. Within a few years, images of similar petroglyphs were sent to the site where the images were hosted, Viewzone, by archaeologists and historians from many different global locations. This included a huge collection of writing from the Republic of Yemen at the site of the palace of the Queen of Sheba.

Strangely, both the writing in Colorado and Yemen spoke of a similar event, possibly related to the Sun, which was prophesied to change human civilization. Subsequent translations of sites in Oklahoma, Australia and South America have added more details about this future event.

The majority of the petroglyphs have already been verified to be of ancient origin, which makes it quite puzzling to experts. How did they all have the same language and tell the same story on opposite ends of a globe? Perhaps our ancient ancestors traveled more than previously thought possible.

Research is currently being conducted to further validate the authenticity and common features of the writing.

This was on today's email newsletter from The Daily Galaxy. Maybe we could enlighten them further......

Perhaps they describe what had already happened, not some future event.

Clear evidence of a world-wide ancient civilization that got smashed, and the
survivors etched the story of this disaster in the rocks.

Whether figuratively or literally.

This is a great subject - which demands great answers.

- The ordinary explanation of petroglyphs is that of "ritual hunting magics" - but I´m sure there´s much more to it.

In my opinion, the rock art similarity over countries and continents, must have a global/universal explanation.

We all have the Sun; the Moon and the Planets in common. We also have many star constellations in common. And ve certainly have the white band of the Milky Way in common here on Earth.

Besides these common matters, we have of course both similar and different animals which could be pictured on the rocks, symbolizing both actual animals but also the different Star Constellations.

- And then, of course, we have a lot of human looking carvings, which can be symbolizing both real people, but also the different Sky deities, including depictering the contours of our Milky Way in many different ways.

The most difficult matter in understanding the petroglyphs, deals with the fact that our ancestors were able to get intuitive or spiritual visions of much more than one modern human being can think of.

- The basic Story of Creation is also very similar all over the world. In my opinion, this story deals foremost with the creation in our Galaxy. A Global story told with very similar symbols of both animals and humanlike beings - some time both as antropomorphic creatures. All symbols of creative forces on the Earth as well in the Sky.

...there are fantastic images that do not appear to represent realities. We shall follow this rule: if there exists a fantastic image that is projected against the sky and that repeats itself all around the world, it is most probably an image that was seen on the screen of the sky by many peoples at the same time.

@Flyingcloud,

Thanks for the interesting links which I´ll study more.

It´s really nice to have them in your backyard. It gives you a great connection to your past!

My own are here, on the Baltic Island of Bornholm, Denmark:

Unfortunally only in Danish for the time being.

But I also have my own web on the subject of Rock ArtMythology/Cosmology here:

Feel very welcome to visit!

Kind Regards Ivar Nielsen

will do so
many thanks

In order to demonstrate man with a hammer syndrome I'm going to post pictures of dinosaur petroglyphs that will somehow be interpreted as plasma.

Could you post the sources/locations too, please?

Mysterious Anomalies: Walking With Dinosaurs (and Humans)?

http://mysteriousanomalies.blogspot.com ... umans.html

The most substantial piece of evidence that dinosaurs once lived along side humankind are prehistoric petroglyphs and paintings found throughout the world that clearly resemble the appearance of various dinosaurs. For example, one of these petroglyphs in particular can be found at Natural Bridges, National Monument Utah. Its creation is attributed to the Anasazi Indians who lived in the region approximately between the fifth and fourteenth centuries. It is apparent that the Anasazi Indians are representing a dinosaur, specifically a Brontosaurus (now referred to as Apatosaurus). However, we seem to forget that the species Brontosaurus excelsus was not discovered until 1879, hundreds of years after the creation of this petroglyph. Thus, it seems nearly impossible that a group of ancient Indians would accurately depict a dinosaur without ever making any contact. Ultimately, we are left with three options: Either the Anasazi Indians were sophisticated archeologists, capable of mind-traveling into the past, or simply put, they coexisted along side at least one dinosaur species at some point in history. At this point, the later is currently the most rational explanation.

This is a 1:1 scale reproduction of a petroglyph (rock art) that was originally discovered in 1879 in the Havasupai Canyon in Arizona. In 1924, a scientific expedition was sent to the canyon to document the artifacts and petroglyphs left behind by the Native Americans.

The director of that expedition, Samuel Hubbard, said the following about the above petroglyph, "The fact that some prehistoric man made a pictograph of a dinosaur on the walls of this canyon upsets completely all of our theories regarding the antiquity of man. Facts are stubborn and immutable things. If theories do not square with the facts then the theories must change, the facts remain." (Discoveries Relating to Prehistoric Man by the Doheny Scientific Expedition in the Hava Supai Canyon Northern Arizona, Oakland Museum, Oakland California, October and November 1924, p. 5)

There is a very heavy desert varnish on this petroglyph, which authenticates its antiquity and thus its authenticity. This is not a modern forgery.

@Total Science,
Aloud me to balance this issue with adding a possible mythological aspect of "dragons" meaning celestial "beings"?

Nickc's quote from V's "Worlds in Collision" is pertinent, but remember also that a relatively small contingent of people migrated/multiplied over only a few generations in the not-too-distant past to all the continents, carrying with them stories/memories of former experience. This is another contributor to the worldwide nature of common petroglyph themes.
