Perhaps its just me, but thinking about past civilisations, their architecture, the sparsity of urban environs, the wider unexplored/uninhabited world and comparing it to what we see now makes me think i was born in the wrong era. Likely over romanticising the past, but what an adventure itd be to wander around Ancient Greece or Ancient Rome, see and experience first hand daily life, experience a world that feels new, where travel is slow enough and differences between even nearby towns are more profound. It feels like in our pursuit of technology and human advancement, we lost something along the way, and can only glimpse at it through the past.

Is the past more beautiful than the present?

Rhetorical question there. Visiting what is the birthplace of current western society, you can feel the gravity of where you are standing.

So when does history become ancient history?

Weirdest history fact you know?

Nemes were pieces of striped head cloth worn by pharaohs in ancient Egypt. 

It covered the whole crown and behind of the head and nape of the neck (sometimes also extending a little way down the back) and had lappets, two large flaps which hung down behind the ears and in front of both shoulders.

It was sometimes combined with the double crown, as it is on the statues of Ramesses II at Abu Simbel. 

The earliest depiction of the nemes, along with a uraeus, is the ivory label of Den from the 1st Dynasty. It is not a crown in itself, but still symbolizes the pharaoh's power.

The bible, like any ancient work, says a lot. It's made by people, though. It's arguably as amazing and flawed as humanity itself has been through the ages.

Anyway, the God/Source/Universe I know loves questions. 

Keep it real with your Self, keep it real with your Creator ✌️❤️

Another reason to always keep an open mind about what we think we know 🙌

I can't help but wonder, did these people work strictly from their imaginations, or did they engage with higher dimensional beings (aka, the Lyrans)? 🤔

"The Löwenmensch figurine, also called the Lion-man of Hohlenstein-Stadel, is a prehistoric ivory sculpture discovered in Hohlenstein-Stadel, a German cave, part of the Caves and Ice Age Art in the Swabian Jura UNESCO World Heritage Site, in 1939. 

The German name, Löwenmensch, meaning "lion-person" or "lion-human", is used most frequently because it was discovered and is exhibited in Germany." -wikipedia

Discovered in the Vatican Archives in the 17th century, the claims of Procopius carry considerable venom in his description of the reign of Emperor Justinian. Can this work be considered accurate or simply a means of propaganda insurance in the event that Justinian was toppled?

"In India, the Buddha text, The Mahauyutpatti, lists 80 kings who descended from the Nagas or "serpent kings". Hindu legend says that the nagas could take a human or Reptilian form at will. This is what is called "shape-shifting" Across India the rulers claimed power Because they descended from the Nagas.

Buddha is claimed to have been of the royal line of Negas, but then anyone said to be of a royal line in India would have to be so. It was the Nagas who established what is now Kashmir and again the ruling bloodlines descended from them. The Chinese emperors were the same.

They were known as Lung or Dragons and many of the earliest emperors were depicted with Reptilian or dragon features, very much like the Nagas. One of them, called Huang Ti, was said to have been born with a "dragon-like countenance" It was claimed that he was conceived by a ray of golden light that entered his mother's womb from the Big Dipper constellation.

The Big Dipper includes the star Alpha Draconis, the star of Set in Egypt. Alpha Draconis is an alleged base of the "Draco" Reptilian "royalty". One Chinese legend says that when he died Huang Ti transformed into an etheric dragon and flew to the realm of the immortals and his throne decoration was symbols of dragons . The priest kings of the Peruvian Incas were symbolised by the snake and they wore bracelets and and anklets in the image of a snake. 

The earliest of the royal Reptilian bloodlines of Central America claimed genetic descent from the serpent gods, Quetzalcoatl and itzamna. Cecrops, the first Mycenaean King of Athens, depicted as a human with a serpent tail.

Another, Erectheus, who founded the Eleusinian Mystery School, was worshipped as a live snake after his death and, according to the legend, king kadmus shape-shifted into a live snake when he died. Also some of the Buddhists worship Buddha as live snake. The symbolism of the serpent linage of the ancient royal bloodlines can be on every continent."

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Thundering down our streets,,,
Wonder how deep in oil, these vehicles were  buried,,, just enough so as to scare and give us a feeling of scarcity and they bring it back in new packaging. 😉
