Any civilization will be ruined if it does not think of its own immortality
We are used to treating myths and legends as things that do not actually exist. However, if we take a closer look at the cultural inheritance of a people, we notice remarkable things. For example, some cultures that live absolutely separately from each other have legends that describe one and the same thing or event. Such legends surely have certain differences, but they are basically the same. Scientist Vladimir Shemchuk has studied the curious peculiarities of folklore and compared them to certain facts from the history of our planet. Shemchuk got the following picture of life on planet Earth over thousands of years.
The Bible contains a legend that there used to be a Golden Age on the planet. Then, it was replaced by the Silver Age, then there was the Bronze Age, and it was all over with the Iron Age. The legends of American Indians and of the African and Australian tribes say that planet Earth was first inhabited by demigods: the Assures (Titans). Then, there were the Atlants. The Atlants were smaller than the Titans; they soon died, and they were replaced by the civilization of giants.
We are used to judging ancient civilizations as badly developed and primitive. Yet, some findings in mines prove that the people of ancient civilizations could mine coal. They even had electricity and manufactured plastic items. All ancient written sources of information mention giants. Most likely, those abundant written legends about giants give certain reasons to believe that giants actually lived on our planet thousands of years ago. This theory explains why ancient constructions and buildings were so huge. It was not simply because of the wish to show their power. They were needed for giant people.
Five stone figures are found in an Afghan village not far from Kabul. One of them is two meters high, another one is six, then there is a figure of 18 meters, the fourth one is 38 meters, and the last one is 54 meters high. Local people do not know the origins of those statues. Some of them think that they guard their village. However, Shemchuk believes that the height of each statue corresponds to the true height of ancient people.
The Assures could not live in the atmosphere that the planet had during those times. They were too big; they would kill themselves with their own weight. They were 50 meters high, they weighed 30 tons, their shoulders were 12 meters wide, and their bodies were five meters thick. A Russian legend about a man called Svyatogor says that he was basically lying all the time, because it was too hard for him to carry the weight of his own body.
Our ancestors were all long-lived, to say the least. Alapar, the second divine Babylonian ruler, reigned for 10,800 years. This means that the Assures’ average age reached 50 thousand years. Shemchuk calculated that having a height of 50 meters allowed one to live for tens of thousands of years. The civilization of Assures lasted for 100-200 generations.
In 1965, Italian scientist Kolossimo summarized the information of all archeological expeditions that people knew. He came to the conclusion that planet Earth used to be the arena of battles using nuclear weapons. Many ancient sources mention weapons that remind one of modern nukes. Melted stones were found in the Gobi desert, in the Middle East, in Europe, Africa, Asia, and North and South America.
Shemchuk believes that the global catastrophe on the planet was a nuclear one. Ancient legends described mutations (Cyclop monsters with one eye only). Archeologists have found strange skeletons with several rows of teeth. Another radioactive mutation is the Mongolian race.
Numerous nuclear explosions resulted in hard rains, which, in their turn, led to the global flood. After the flood, there was a nuclear winter, which is scientifically known as global freezing. Fires made the atmosphere of the Earth less rarefied, which was not good for giant forms of life.
Practically all nations and tribes have a legend, a myth, or a tale about dragons. North American Indians have a legend about the invasion of monster dragons that killed our ancestors’ civilization. One could assume that our planet was seized by dragons.
A civilization will inevitably vanish if it does not think of its own immortality. Scientist Shemchuk urges everyone to pay attention to ecological issues and to the development of people’s psychophysical abilities. The work of scientists has only one goal: to make people understand that it is time to take serious measures. Otherwise, our civilization will be ruined.
