Archaeologist S.O. Kinnaman claimed he and Sir Flinders Petrie discovered a hidden chamber under the Great Pyramid of Giza

Would have been a cool thread 20 years ago....

Excerpt from chapter 15 of Stephen Mehler's "Khemit and the Myth of Atlantis":

The topic of the myth of Atlantis has been the focus of varied books and inquiries ever since Plato brought the concept to the Western world in two of his Dialogues, The Timaeus and The Critias, written in the fourth century BC. Plato claimed the story was passed down to the Greek statesman Solon by Egyptian priests. Several other Greek and Roman authors also related similar stories of a great ancient civilization that perished in a series of cataclysmic earth changes.

The story of a great flood has been found in the mythology and literature of almost all peoples world-wide, which has convinced many authors that it was a real event. In their book Cataclysm!, British science historian D. S. Allan, along with geologist and anthropologist J. B. Delair, presents an effective case for the possibility of a world-wide cataclysm occurring very near in time to Plato’s dates for the fall of Atlantis around 11,500 years ago.

From my extensive research and interest in metaphysics, I became aware that Plato’s Atlantis story and stories of even older civilizations, such as that of Lemuria in the Pacific Ocean, are accepted parts of the Western metaphysical tradition.

Groups such as,

- the Rosicrucians
- the Freemasons
- the Theosophical Society
- the Association of Research and Enlightenment
- the Order of the Golden Dawn
- the Poor Knights of The Temple of Solomon (the Knights Templar)

...have all accepted the myth of Atlantis as a real event that occurred in time and space.

In the early 1970s when I first discovered the works of Edgar Cayce and his channelings about Atlantis, I became very interested in the subject and read many books, especially those of Ignatius Donnelly, Robert Stacey-Judd and Manly P. Hall. Cayce’s channelings were fascinating and detailed, and based on the accounts of his life story, he seemed to be a very credible source. The linkage of Atlantis to ancient Egypt was also particularly strong in Cayce’s channelings, and for a while it seemed logical to me in my research in its early stages in the 1970s that Egypt had arisen as a result of a migration of advanced beings from the doomed Atlantic island continent.

It is also somewhat interesting that Mark Lehner, so often mentioned in this book as one of the strongest proponents of the accepted paradigms of academic Egyptology and highly doubtful of the existence of any previous Khemitian civilization before the dynastic periods, started his career as a follower of the channelings of Edgar Cayce and wrote a book in 1974 in which he supported the story of Atlantis and an ancient Khemitian prehistory.

In 1979, when I first heard the tape of the lecture given by Dr. J. O. Kinnaman, it was his declaration that he and Sir Flinders Petrie had found “proof” of Atlantis with ancient records and anti-gravitational machines in the Great Pyramid that so fueled my interest in his life and work. It was Kinnaman’s declarations that were the final “key” for me, that obviously Atlantis had been a reality. It seemed early in the twentieth century, before Cayce had even channeled any information linking Egypt and Atlantis, that Kinnaman and Petrie had found the physical proof!

Of course, it could be argued quite the opposite since Kinnaman did not discuss this information in public or private before the 1950s and Petrie apparently never publicly discussed any such alleged finds, that Kinnaman only made the story up after the publication of Cayce’s readings in book form. This argument has been presented to me often by skeptics of Kinnaman’s claims, and quite frankly, it cannot be refuted at this time. Since I have stated that Kinnaman claimed he and Petrie entered into an agreement with the governments of Egypt and Great Britain never to divulge the finds in their lifetimes, it remains speculation.

However, there was another claim of Kinnaman’s that has recently, due to the work of Christopher Dunn, appeared to have some justification. Kinnaman stated that one of the uses of the Great Pyramid was to serve as a giant radio station to send messages all over the earth. Kinnaman claimed there was a passageway off of the secret entrance they found on the south-east corner of the Great Pyramid that led to a spiral staircase that took them down over 1,000 feet into the limestone bedrock. There, in a large room lying on a stone table was a giant quartz crystal ground convex that was 30 feet in every direction (long, high, thick etc.). This giant crystal with thousands of prisms inserted in it was the source of the radio transmission.

One of the researchers who has been very supportive of the possibility of previous high civilizations existing over 10,000 years ago has been David Hatcher Childress. A prolific writer and world traveler, Childress has authored several books about lost cities around the world. In his book Lost Cities of North and Central America, Childress mentions finding an article in a 1960s edition of Arizona Highways magazine which revealed that Egyptian artifacts had supposedly been found in the Grand Canyon in 1909, and the story had been written up in the Phoenix Gazette newspaper. Childress set out to investigate and found copies of the newspaper articles in a public library. Sure enough, the story was front page news in the Phoenix Gazette for two days running in April of 1909.

These front page articles discussed the discovery of a cave in the Grand Canyon in Arizona containing Egyptian mummies and artifacts.

The find was supervised by a Professor S. A. Jordan of the Smithsonian Institute, but when Childress called the Smithsonian to attempt to verify the discovery, the head archaeologist and other officials of the Smithsonian denied knowing about any such excavation or artifacts. In fact, the Smithsonian archaeologist stated categorically that no Egyptian artifacts had ever been found in North America, and there never had been an S. A. Jordan who was associated with the Smithsonian. In the Denver Museum, I was able to locate back copies of the Smithsonian’s annual reports. I did not find the year 1909, but in the 1911 report, the name S. A. Jordan was listed as a field archaeologist for the Smithsonian Institute.

In a discussion I had with Dr. A. J. McDonald, President and Executive Director of the Kinnaman Foundation in 1994 about Childress’ revelations of an Egyptian find in the Grand Canyon, Dr. McDonald related to me that one of the places Kinnaman had stated radio messages from the Great Pyramid were sent was to the Grand Canyon in America. Now, again, it is possible as an informed archaeologist Kinnaman may have known about the Grand Canyon find in 1909, and even known Professor S. A. Jordan, and just connected the discovery to the Great Pyramid, but it remains an interesting story nonetheless.

We also now have Christopher Dunn stating that by virtue of the Great Pyramid acting as a coupled oscillator, tremendous amounts of microwave and radio wave energy were produced. So, indeed, the Great Pyramid could have functioned as a giant radio station, just as Kinnaman said it did. Hakim has stated on many occasions that the indigenous tradition has taught that one of the many functions of the Great Pyramid was as a giant communication device...

There are no search results for "kinnaman" in the GLP archives.

Keep your fantasies to yourself, you perverted freak.

If the pyramid was a giant radio then those people weren't very advanced. We have cellphones that fit in the palm of your hand now.

In the early days of the internet I read a transcript of Kinnaman's recorded lecture which he gave to the group of Masons at a private residence in Northern California. I had downloaded it to a computer which has been dead for many years now. Do any of you GLPers have an audio file or transcript of that lecture?

Five stars! Old school GLP.

Boil it down. I'm pressed for time. Spark my interest.

No. Move along.

Kinnaman must have been obsessed with the pyramids.

Just another battery cell... and there is no "secret passage"

They literally had to dig through the walls to get inside...

Atlantis is at the bottom of the Mediteranean. It was thousands of years ago that the natural dam we now know as the rock of Gibralter broke free and the Atlantic Ocean came rushing in to flood the Mediteranean basin and thats when Atlantis suddenly disappeared under the water.

The pyramid is a monument built in honor of the king of Egypt!

A make work project!

Was Kinnaman a Chinaman?

I don't think so Tim....

That is not correct. I have detailed memories of several incarnations during the Atlantean civilization.

It had outposts in the Mediterranean, coast of Africa and Western Europe (Spain + Portugal), but the main continent (which became a group of islands in the second destruction) was at Atlantic Ocean. Azores and Canary Islands are remnants of those, most of it went deep beneath the waves.

The Great Pyramid was built just before the final destruction of the civilization. The Sphinx is a lot older than that and has been transferred to Egypt from Atlantis.

Only three things missing from this article:

Nessie
Unicorn
Bigfoot

:areuhigh:

Because when the opened the Tomb Chamber they were overcome
by the poisonous fumes emanating from the entrance.

5***** Great thread

a bunch of bullshit propaganda.

They will use some fake Discoveries as the pretext to Alien invasion and the whole belief in Christianity and other Religions.

The article had potential until it started talking about atlantis and anti gravity machines. So...

"The Initiation of the Pyramid"

Exactly, as atlantean high priestess in the law of one I can confirm, and confirm kinnaman

Good find op what was on the outer casing stones has always fascinated me still searching all these decades later
