265 years
ago, a 28 year old German woman named Johanna Sophia Schmied who lived
in the village of Taucha near Leipzig, gave birth to a monster that
is unlike any other. This monster has become popularly known as the
"Chicken Man."
Fate
magazine's February (2000) issue recounts the facts of the case as preserved
by the attending physician, Dr. Gottlieb Friderici. The physician witnessed
the event and preserved the fetus in formaldehyde along with an extensive
report of his autopsy, including drawings and the medical history of
the mother.
During
the autopsy, the doctor noted that the oversized head did not have the
characteristics of hydrocephaly and the tumor like outgrowth was completely
filled with brain matter. The heart did not have a pericardium, but
was instead, embedded in a "peculiarly thin membrane".
The bone
structure was also very different in significant ways from that of normal
human beings. Neither the lower arms nor the lower legs consisted of
two bones as would be present in humans. The kneecap was also absent.
The author
of the Fate Magazine article, Hartwig Hausdorf, points out some
similarities in the story of the mother of this monster and modern day
abductions. He asks the obvious question:
"...Do
we have surprising evidence for a case of targeted genetic manipulation
by extraterrestrials, abandoned when the results did not meet their
expectations?"
This creature
is truly monstrous, and it is difficult to even feel pity for it when
observing that nothing in either its interior or exterior configuration
corresponds to that which is considered to be human.
Mr. Hausdorf
writes:
"There
are discrepancies in number, size, and above all, certain components
are entirely missing while others appear to be 'extraordinarily developed."
This story
and the accompanying photographs, were so curious that I decided to
ask the Cassiopaeans for
a few remarks at the end of a session last month. I thought the comments
were interesting, and maybe you will too.

Q: Now,
we have this bizarre picture here of this absolutely strange creature
in a museum in Germany. What is this 265 year old creature that has
been kept in formaldehyde all these years?
A: Hybridized conception/gestate.
Q: Was there hybridization and genetic manipulation going on almost
300 years ago?
A: Most done this way are miscarried.
Q: Did it live at all after birth?
A:
No.
Q: Who was responsible for this experiment?
A: It was not an experiment. It was the result of Reptoid "rape."
Q: So, the mother was raped by a reptoid. Why do reptoids rape human
women?
A: We have discussed motives.
Q: Yes. They feed on the fear, terror, or absorb some substance emitted
by the sexual organs and/or chakra as a kind of "food," and
in some cases they are "changing the genetic program." But, in general,
when we have discussed this, it has not included impregnating human
women with Reptoid sperm. How often does this activity result in impregnation?
A: Rarely.
Q: So, in this case it did, and here is the result. Pretty horrible.

Going
in another direction, a photograph was recently sent to my by a correspondent.
I shared this photo with our discussion group, and a number of members
declared outright that it was a fake because they could "detect"
anomalies.
Well,
Ark
and I did some experiments with photos that we crumpled and drew on
the back of, and these experiments produced precisely the effects that
the critics were claiming were proof that this photo was not "real."
We subjected the photo to various graphic modification filters and enhancements,
and even though we are not experts, we had expert guidance. In the end,
we came to the conclusion that we could not discard it as "faked."
You can
see a crease across the photo which is consistent with the fact that
the story I was told was that it was carried around in someone's pocket
for quite awhile.
There
are some odd geometric markings that show up with enhancement, but,
as noted, we did some experiments with drawing on the back of a photo
and then scanning it, and the same effect is produced. It looks like
someone drew a map on the back of the photo.
Now, the
thing that struck me about this photo was the hands, elbows and feet
of the creature. Look at them closely and then look again at the "Chicken
Man" creature in the jar above.
Is it
real? Do any readers have more info on it? I would appreciate any further
data if it is available.
Update
August 2002:
Several readers have written to inform me that the above "creature"
was/is "a creature carved into the rock at Cheddar Gorge, a tourist
attraction in England. The gorge system has many mythical creatures
carved into its rock, and this "imp" photo has been doing the ufological
rounds for ages before someone pointed out what it actually was!"
When I
received the first email with this information, I attempted to confirm
it with the folks at the Cheddar Gorge attraction. No one there seemed
to be aware of it or the claims that it was supposed to be in the cave.
Nevertheless,
another reader not only wrote with the above information, he tracked
down the source of that information: Fortean Times magazine.
He also forwarded an image of the article:
Even though
it then seemed that we had proof that the photo was a hoaxed monster,
so to say, I must add that the folks at the Cheddar Caves refute the
above Fortean Times claim:

While
we are on the subject of monsters, in the Cambridge Illustrated
History of Prehistoric Art, I came across a most unusual photograph.
It was in a chapter about "Body Art," and the many ways our
howling-savage ancestors decorated their physiology. Many paragraphs
are devoted to the subject of tattooing, and some nice graphic images
accompany these remarks. But only a single, vague paragraph is dedicated
to the subject of this amazing photograph that I am going to show you.
The author,
Paul G. Bahn, comments:
"Other
forms of bodily art, such as hairstyles and scarification, can only
be assessed from prehistoric human figurines and images, except for
some preserved bodies whose hair is preserved - for example, from
the Altai, the European bog bodies or the early Chinchorro mummies
of northern Chile. There is more evidence for skeletal modification.
For example, it is known that the deliberate deformation of the human
skull, by binding the brow of growing infants or applying pressure
at regular intervals, thus giving it a high sloping forehead or a
broad flat forehead, was widespread: the phenomenon may even exist
among the Neanderthals, and seems to occur in early Australian skulls
such as specimens from Kow swamp, 13,000 year old."
And that's
it. Not another word about it.
Then,
you turn the page and there is this picture. The caption on the picture
simply says:
"Deliberately
deformed skulls from the Ica area, Peru. Precise date unknown, probably
early centuries A.D."
And
that's it. Nothing said about how binding the head of an infant can
deform the skull - but it cannot make the skull grow bigger!
It seems
pretty clear to me that these skulls are more than double in cranial
size of a normal human skull.
Well,
I was pretty curious about this so I went looking to see if I couldn't
find out more about these skulls that were so casually mentioned to
be present in the "Ica area, Peru."
I found
an article on the web
- which did not have the author's name on it anywhere, so if anyone
knows it, please let me know - where there were photographs of the same
skulls.
This gentleman
wrote about the skulls in the following way:
Begin
quoted article: The movie "Stargate" has become a popular video
cassette rental. Its feature film release was met with disappointing
reviews, however, a sort of cult following has ensued as people have
started discovering the movie by word of mouth. It deals with a touchy
subject... Aliens that visited Earth thousands of years ago.
I learned
about the film from the company that was producing a CD ROM about
the movie called "The Secrets of Stargate." The associate producer
of the CD ROM, Joel Mills, had learned that I had in my possession
photographs that could prove that the movie "Stargate" was based on
historical fact. They wanted to include copies of the photographs
of the "unusual giant skulls" that my wife (Bea) and I had collected
over the past five years. It seems that the movie deals with the theory
that extra terrestrials had used humans as slaves to mine metal in
Egypt thousands of years ago.
Mills
felt these giant skulls were proof that the ancient pharaohs the the
same elongated skulls hidden under their crown headdress, and that,
in fact, the "Coneheads" of Saturday Night Live are based on fact,
not fiction.
I pointed
out to him that Egypt's King Akhenaton and his daughters were proud
of their distinct features (elongated skulls) and the true facts of
this royal family are shrouded in controversy. Some historians point
out that the giant skulls of this family are a deformity caused by
inbreeding. Others discount this and claim that it is the art style
of the Armana period.
The
secret society known as the Rosicrucians place King Akhenaton on their
highest pedestal by reconstructing his statue and main temple at their
head office in San Jose, California. Mills also asked permission to
use photographs of giant skulls that I had obtained while filming
at the Nasca lines in Peru. Although "Stargate" did not deal with
a Peruvian connection, he felt the world needed to see the photographs
to understand that ancient skulls of extraordinary dimensions could
be found at other major archaeological sites around the world, in
particular, the Nasca Line and the ruins of Peru.... in the shadows
of the Cheops pyramids in Egypt... and the ancient Mayan ruins of
Central America... The Triangle of the Ancient Gods.
I was
happy to send him the photos but warned him that the photos would
probably be too controversial for the general public. He seemed surprised
at this comment and wondered why he hadn't seen pictures like this
before. The complicated answer took a great deal of time to explain!
I will try to encapsulate this answer and relate to you a brief history
of these unusual skulls.
I first
came across drawings of the skulls in a book by Ignatius Donnelly
called "Atlantis, The Antedeluvian World." The author tries to prove
that at one time there existed a Continent in the middle of the Atlantic
Ocean that sank into the sea. Before it sank, the rulers left for
Egypt, Mexico and Peru and became rulers of these countries. He found
information about these skulls hidden in the Library of Congress in
Washington.
I had
learned from the Peruvian government that these unusual skulls could
be found in many museums in Peru and excavations were uncovering them
even now near the Nasca Plateau. I had read Erich Von Daniken's "Chariots
of the Gods?" and remembered his theories of ancient astronauts landing
in this desert area. A few years ago, we were invited to film and
photograph these skulls and other discoveries that Peruvian archaeologists
are currently unearthing. These skulls are so numerous in the area
of the Nasca desert that you can find small makeshift museums in the
backyards of the locals. They dug up their ancestors so you can view
their remains for a small fee.
Some
skulls show the evidence of ancient brain surgery that prove their
ancestors possessed certain abilities that modern science has just
recently discovered. Stunned, we wondered why we had not seen photographs
of these skulls before. Our guides explained their church leaders
feel these skulls are the work of the devil, the offspring of the
fallen angels in the Bible.
In Mexico
we found the same types of skulls in a museum in Merida, a city close
to the ruins of Palenque. Lord Shield Pascal had the same elongated
skull, an image which is found engraved on his tomb. Erich Von Daniken
has described the drawings as Pascal sitting in a rocket ship. The
conquering Spaniards found the natives deforming their heads to make
them appear more "god like" and the priests declared them devil worshippers.
Meanwhile
in Egypt, King Akhenaton was also regarded as a heretic and all information
about this king was obliterated until just recently. These finding
prove that the rulers of these advanced societies all shared the common
bond of huge skulls and brains that probably provided them with superior
intelligence. This information has been shared by secret societies
and religious leaders for hundreds of years and up until now they
had decided to keep these secrets for themselves. All who first see
the pictures feel...
"They
show proof of beings from another world."
It seems
that these conclusions were deemed to be too shocking for the average
person and that these skulls were to be dismissed as deformities and
hidden far from public view. That is, until President Fujimori took
power in Peru. He had decided to allow the skulls to be photographed
and has brought them to the attention of the world.
Resistance
to publishing the photographs has remained, and there appears to be
a world wide cover-up of the skulls true origins. The only answers
seems to be that public knowledge of "Fallen Angels" or ancient astronauts
would disrupt society and the world's religions.
I told
Joel Mills he would probably face the same struggle to get the photos
published in the CD ROM, just as we have encountered with the various
news media. He felt sure that the time was here and now to wake up
the world, and that the movie "Stargate" was just the beginning. I
wished him luck and success with the idea and sent him all the material
I had in my possession to document the facts he needed.
Several
months passed and then one day he phoned to tell me he had left the
CD ROM production team and that none of the skull photographs would
be included in "The Secrets of Stargate". After several run-ins with
executives in Hollywood, the pictures wee deemed to be unsuitable
for inclusion in "The Secrets of Stargate."
He was
much happier with his new job promoting a public speaker that teaches
the history and wisdom of ancient Egypt and again asked for permission
to use the photographs, but this time for private presentations only.
He had learned first hand about the powers that have kept these pictures
hidden from the public. End quoted article.
Now,
just to give you some other views, here are more photographs:
|
This
is the second skull from the Cambridge Illustrated History
that I scanned.
Again
we ask: what could cause a skull to be so severely enlarged? It
is clearly not just "deformed."
|
|
If
we were to place an image of a normal, "deformed" skull
on top of this specimen, I think we would find that there is no
comparison in terms of cranial capacity. Again, we might think that
something other than "head binding" is in operation here. |
|
Are
these "alien" skulls? |
Just to
try to put the thing in perspective, I searched for an example of "real"
head-binding in order to see if the above examples could, conceivably
fall into this category. I found a discussion on the subject of "body
art" and the following paragraph:
II.
CRANIAL
DEFORMATION The practice of deforming the head was much more common
in Mesoamerica than was mutilation of the teeth. The practice of head
deformation has a very wide distribution and dates from antiquity.
It is an enduring practice known from many parts of the world. Plateau
Indians in North America created a flattened forehead by pressing
a board against the padded forehead of a infant swaddled in a cradleboard.
Many Indian groups, particularly in the Northwest employed this procedure.
Plateau Indians in Washington state and Idaho created a flattened
forehead by pressing a board against the padded forehead of an infant
swaddled in a cradleboard. The most famous were known as the 'Flatheads.'
In Mesoamerica, deformation was also done by head binding. The Maya
used head boards and head binding to produce a distinctive shape which
denoted social status and rank in society. A person of high status
would have mutilated teeth, a conical shaped cranium and crossed eyes
(produced by dangling shiny objects close to the infant's eyes).
An
image accompanied this article which was a drawing and not an actual
photograph. What we see here is clearly that the head binding practice
did not alter the volume of the skull. It merely changed the shape.
In the
"alien" skulls above, this is not the case. These skulls are
almost double in cranial volume.
Considering
these distinctions, it is singularly curious that more research isn't
being done on these things and that more information about them is not
available. Something so startling and so strange ought to be investigated
scientifically.
But then,
maybe they have. Maybe that's why we don't hear about them or see them
more often.
