Our Mysterious Planet
Lost Civilizations

Overlooked research, pro and con, on the missing continent or island of Atlantis.
All very ancient legend and the most rudimentary history, the vague allusions of Plato, Aristotle and Seneca, speak of a country in the Western Ocean, which would scarcely be likely to be the distant Americas; and I think we may accept those legends as to a land existing in what is now the Atlantic Ocean at about the period discussed, remembering that after all legend is oral history and starts with some foundations.
If America is to be saved, it is her women who will save her, for they can hold their own with any of their foreign sisters-they are quite wonderful !
A good view of the Assyrian culture from one of their own manuscripts. It includes a quick study of the gods of the Assyrians. Interesting to see the ancients faced the same problems of taxes, religions, and making a living as we do today.
We use Norse mythology everyday of the week, either without knowing it or not thinking about it. Tuesday, Wodensday, Thorsday, and Freysday.... Why do these so-called mythologies continue to amaze and confound us? Are they fiction stories built around true and factual events? Nonsense you say--- but you also said that about the mythological Legend of Troy.. and now proven as a factual place in time and history.
The Origin of Religions - The Aryan race has contributed much to civilization. Was their sun worship the origin of all religions?
This ignored scientific research was by one of India's political warriors, who dared to confront the British occupation and British destruction of his homeland. He finds that Aryan race of man to be birthed from the Arctic areas of the planet, based on readings in the sacred Vedas...and he backs this with independent and scientfic research.
This book is an application of the jigsaw system to certain archæological problems which under the ordinary detached methods of the Specialist have proved insoluble. My fragments of evidence are drawn as occasion warrants from History, Fairy-tale, Philosophy, Legend, Folklore-in fact from any quarter whence the required piece unmistakably fulfils the missing space. It is thus a mental medley with all the defects, and some, I trust, of the attractions, of a mosaic.
The Cakchiquels, whose traditions and early history are given in the present work from the pen of one of their own authors, were a nation of somewhat advanced culture, who occupied a portion of the area of the present State of Guatemala.
The various peoples inhabiting Mexico and Central America in early pre-Columbian times were accustomed to record various events, especially in regard to their calendar and the religious ceremonials in relation to it, on long strips of skin or bark. These were usually painted on both sides and folded together like a screen. Several of these codices are still in existence from the Nahua and Zapotec areas in Mexico, but only three have come down to us from the Maya region which is included in the peninsula of Yucatan, the states of Tabasco and Chiapas in Mexico, and portions of Guatemala and Honduras.
The Anglo-Saxon race is to be given credit for most of the world's advancements in technology and progress.
Study of Anglo-Saxon law is a precursor to English Common Law. It is important to understand that Anglo-Saxon law is thousands of years old and has evolved during that time to 'fit' the Anglo-Saxon race. For Anglos, laws originating from this system seem natural and normal, but for other races or civilizations the Anglo-Saxon system is foreign, unweildy, and unjust to non-Anglos.
There is a buzzing, a stirring in the air. It's all around us and people are feeling it in every part of the world. You can tell something is going to happen. But when? Where? And who will be involved?
The ETRUSCANS at the time when Roman history begins were a powerful and warlike race, superior to the Italians in civilization and the arts of life. They probably came from the north, and at first settled in the plain of the Po; but being afterwards dislodged by the invading Gauls, they moved farther south, into Etruria.
Ever heard of the round towers of Peru? Stone Circles? or Henges?
