thank you for reviving the topic,its been a while for me since i have looked into that subject.
i followed the links bluelamp has posted,i had read some of them ages ago,which lead me to a book i will definitely have to have in my collection.
it is 'The Land of Osiris' by Stephen S. Mehler.
In it Mehler mentions the work of Dr.Kinnamann , who claims to have worked with Petrie in Egypt and to have discovered the 'secret' of anti gravity with him,but swore to keep this secret
However, I do believe certain devices have been found,some on display in the Cairo Museum , that may be what Kinnaman was describing, A series of plates,made of the volcanic stone schist,may have been used to create a sound vibration to overcome gravity and enable the huge blocks of the pyramid to be placed so precisely
Mehler also met and collaborated with a native Egyptian Egyptology and tour guide by the name of Hakim, who revealed to him that he was a 'Keeper' of a much older oral tradition
Hakim has also consistently stated that sound played an important role in both cutting the hard stone and overcoming gravity to lift the stones in place
sound wave focusing anyone???
on page 101 he shows a picture of alabaster 'basins' with gear-like knobs around the rim ,which remind me of Leedskallin's device
and on page 56 he writes
...the word 'sufi',which means literally in Arabic "man of wool", is normally defined as relating to a group of Islamic mystics still very active today.Sufi is derived from the Khemitian word 'suf'.The indigenous tradition teaches that 'SUF' means 'the written language of Khemit' and is the original,proper word for the written script the Greeks labeled 'Hieroglyphica(sacred symbols)The term 'sufi' may refer to those adepts who originated the symbols and passed their esoteric meaning down in secret from master to disciple for many thousands of years. They later became assimilated into Islam , but have maintained a system of a secret ,oral tradition that may be the basis of Sufism today. The 'wool' of the Sufi is the fiber of the cocoon of the butterfly chrysalis,a 'birth' fiber, the suf language being the birth of all written symbolic scripts
hmmm butterfly wool? silk anyone?
did the ancient sufis wear silk robes and headgear like our forum members of late? :D
i just love it when all the threads(pun intended) run together like this
maybe our geologist members can get their hands on some schist and try and make some of these devices??? anart???
great book a must read
