96) Lake Baikal and Lake Tahoe


[link to en.m.wikipedia.org (secure)]

Lake Baikal is the largest freshwater lake by volume in the world, containing roughly 20% of the world's unfrozen surface fresh water.[4][5] With a maximum depth of 1,642 m (5,387 ft),[1] Baikal is the world's deepest lake.[6] It is considered among the world's clearest[7] lakes and is considered the world's oldest lake[8] — at 25 million years.[9] It is the seventh-largest lake in the world by surface area. With 23,615.39 km3 (5,700 cu mi) of fresh water,[1] it contains more water than all the North American Great Lakes combined.[10]

The nominal size of the global populace is guesswork.

The most populated region was in Africa, it covered Egypt, Syria, Israel and Palestine along with parts of Iran and Iraq. A census run some 13.600 years ago which survived intact carved into a rust proof alloy pillar shows a tally of 18 milion souls across the entire region.

In North America the area of present day New York was one hub of urban civilization with half a milion people spread across settlements, Cuba and the shoes of the Gulf of Mexico hosted another population of almost a million.

Peru and Bolivia hosted civilizations descended from an earlier age, they've numbered at least three milion souls.

In Europe the five great cities that sprawled on the now sunken lowlands of what is currently the british islands hosted a population of two milion souls.

The great mining complex of France and Spain that fed the old world with resources hosted approximately a million souls stretched across present day France, Spain and Portugal.

1) Orbital Rail Guns used in Ancient wars created impact craters and Crater National Park is an example.

George B,

I have wondered if the rail guns were used to carve the face in the moon. I did not see anything after going through the Alterwelt thread.

Have they described this at all, did I miss something?

19) They say the moon landing was NOT a Hoax & the Americans encountered an Automated perimeter defense systems.

8) Shambhala

9) Shambala still exists today!
See 66 below as well:

What the heck is with the "click on the letter icon below"

If you are going to cut and paste....make sure it makes sense.

Update on Shambhala from Item 66, Click the Letter Icon Below by the George B.:

Maybe it's because I'm on an iPad, but I see no link or anything to click on, and I've clicked all over your latest post to see if I was missing something.

22) Mount Shasta

A kinetic pellet strike against a ground force of heavy armour.


No. There's a native american repository there from the times following the colonization of Americans by their people.


No, its not.

24) Göbekli Tepe

23) Grand Canyon

No.


An old kingdom priestly sect built their haven there, the complex itself is even older, built prior to the end of the ice age. Its location was known by a secular sect of old kingdom priests who moved there after being exiled from Egypt.

It was meant to create a kinetic shield for a city below. No, the entire region was inundated and all of its inhabitants were killed shortly after. Prior to that event the entire region was a vast construction site and there were urban centers all around. Their ruins are still scattered across the mountains.



It's a site to shelter the Incas from the Spanish, built in a deliberate proximity to a much older site from a precursor civilization that the Incas considered sacred.

A precursor to the Toltec civilization. Stone age in technology but with a large population and a significant level of social organization.

It was built some 1600 years ago.


The Incas around 1450. It was built for the priests and elites who worshipped a much older site in the vicinity. Later it was used as a safe haven during the spanish conquest.

No, both cities you listed have been built within the last 1600 and 500 years using fairly primivite methods.

They used weapons of mass destruction, kinetic and energy in nature, they destabilised the geology of the planet and poisoned the ecosystem for a long period of time, the loss of life and infrastructure was such that survivors reverted to stone age levels.

Yes there are artifacts left over from that period.


No major changes.

You're a real sport for making this....
Sincerely,
ShillShank

As initially reported in the German media, human remains from the Bronze Age were found in the region named "Tollensetal" (Tollense valley) since 1997.[1] Many individuals showed signs of serious injury and violent death, leading to a hypothesis of some kind of inter-tribal conflict. Starting in 2008, archaeological study of the site zeroed in on an area of two square kilometers. Hundreds of bone fragments belonging to a very large number of persons have since been discovered along with further corroborating evidence of battle; current estimates indicate that perhaps 4000 warriors took place in a battle on the site. These findings were possible due to the preservation of the former swamp ground and the fact that the Tollense has never really changed its course. Since the population density then was about 5 people per square kilometer, this would have been the most significant battle in Bronze Age period Germany yet to be discovered. Moreover, the Tollense valley is so far the largest excavated battle site of this age anywhere in the world.[2] Further investigation of the site took place in the years 2010 to 2015.

Lumnezia is a valley region and a municipality in the district of Surselva in the Swiss of canton of Graubünden. The former municipalities of Cumbel, Degen, Lumbrein, Morissen, Suraua, Vignogn, Vella, and Vrin merged on 1 January 2013 into the new municipality of Lumnezia.[3] It covers the (Val) Lumnezia (Romansh, German: Lugnez), a Swiss high alpine valley. Its upper regions are among the most remote areas in the Swiss Alps. The official language is Romansh Sursilvan.


Neolithic and Megalithic Period

In the neolithic times the valley was probably inhabited by Chalcolithic (Copper-stone Age) Europeans. Witness to this is the Crap da Treis Siarps, the Three Snakes Stone, a remnant of a Neolithic or Bronze Age Megalithic monument. It can be found at the slope of the Glogn gorge east of the Parish church of Pleif. Although the other megaliths of this monument have substantially weathered, the Three Snakes Stone is well preserved. It has three snakes and a half moon engraved, hinting at its use as either a burial site or as an archaeoastronomical site.
