Michael Cremo and Ancient Consciousness

Mikael Kindborg and Gösta Lindwall, Oct 25, 2021

In this article we discuss using human consciousness as a tool for exploration and research in the field of Forbidden Archeology.

Consciousness is a fascinating subject. But what is consciousness and how does it differ from the mind? This article is based on a model from Michael Cremo's book "Human Devolution". We make our own observations related to this model, and discuss how our minds can be reprogrammed and the implications for research into ancient mysteries.

Smell of Foul Play in the 14th Century

Gösta Lindwall, October 10, 2021

Could up to 800 years of our established chronology be fabricated, and could, as a consequence, the correct date for our present day be around 1,200 AD? This is what the Russian mathematician and professor Anatoly Fomenko proposes in his theory New Chronology.

Watch Out for These False Rock Walls

Gösta Lindwall, July 20, 2020

If you are like us and are interested in ancient mysteries, you probably have an eye for anomalous objects and old megalithic structures. There are examples of giant rock formations that may appear to be remains of ancient buildings, like the Gornaya Shoria megaliths in Russia, but are they human-made?

Why They Would Hide It

Gösta Lindwall and Mikael Kindborg, July 18, 2020

There has been much speculation on how the ancients were able to construct all the megalithic complexes around the world. How did they lift and move those large blocks of stone? Some of the buildings are made from large and heavy building blocks, weighing up to hundreds – and in some cases thousands – of tons. In this article, we examine this mystery further.

"It Has Been Debunked"

Mikael Kindborg and Gösta Lindwall, May 18, 2020

The Ancient World Map Anomaly

Gösta Lindwall and Mikael Kindborg, April 28, 2020

Why are world maps from before 1770, depicting a fairly correct distance between continents, an anomaly? Famous maps from the 16th century include the Piri Reis world map from 1513 and Mercator's world maps from 1538 and 1569. But the ability to determine the longitude (the east-west position), which is vital for making a map, was not known in the 16th century. How did they make these maps?

A Hypothetical City 12,800 Years Ago
