Who really built the Pyramids of Egypt and what is their purpose? Why are there so many large stone circles throughout the world and what are their connections? Will the world really end as we know it on December 21, 2012 as the Mayan calendar predicts? Are the tales of the lost cities of Atlantis and Lemuria really true?

Great
Pyramid of Giza Research Association - Description
from this site: [Welcome to the number one web site for information on
the Great Pyramid of Giza. Our Association has over 3000 members and an International
Advisory Board.
The Great Pyramid of Giza stands on the northern edge of the Giza Plateau,
located about 10 miles west of Cairo. It is composed of over 2 ½ million blocks
of limestone, which weigh from 2 to 70 tons each.
It's base covers over 13 acres and its volume is around 90,000,000 cubic feet.
You could build 30 Empire State buildings with its masonry. It is 454 feet
high which is equivalent to a modern 48-story building. There are currently
203 courses or steps to its summit. Each of the four triangular sides slope
upward from the base at an angle of 51 degrees 51 minutes and each side has
an area of 5 1/2 acres. The joints between adjacent blocks fit together with
optical precision and less than a fiftieth of an inch separates the blocks.
The cement that was used is extremely fine and strong and defies chemical
analysis. Today, with all our modern science and engineering, we would not
be able to build a Great Pyramid of Giza. The Great Pyramid is thought to
have been erected around 2600 BC during the reign of Khufu (Cheops). Next
to the Great Pyramid stands 2 additional large pyramids. The slightly smaller
one is attributed to Cheop's son and successor , Kephren. The other, still
smaller, is attributed to Kephren’s successor, the grandson of Cheops, Mykerionos.
To the south-east of the Great Pyramid lies the Sphinx. The total number of
identified pyramids in Egypt is about 80.]
Gizapower
: The Official Chris Dunn Website - Have
we misinterpreted the purpose of the Pyramids? Are they indeed tombs or were
they built for an entirely different purpose? Why are there no writings inside
the Great Pyramids at Giza? Why is there no Pharoh in the Kings Chamber? Are
they Pyramids actually devices for generating power? Chris Dunn may have proved
this to be so. Description from this site: [Christopher
Dunn has an extensive background as a master craftsman, starting as a journeyman
lathe turner in his home town of Manchester, England. Recruited by an American
aerospace company, he immigrated to the United States in 1969. Beginning as
a skilled machinist, he has worked at every level of high-tech manufacturing
from toolmaking to operating high-power industrial lasers, including the position
of Project Engineer and Laser Operations Manager at DMS, a Midwest aerospace
manufacturer.
The author's pyramid odyssey began in 1977 when he read Peter Tompkins' book
Secrets of the Great Pyramid. His immediate reaction to the Giza Pyramid's
schematics was that this edifice was a gigantic machine.
Discovering the purpose of this machine and documenting his case has taken
the better part of twenty years of research.
In the process he has published a dozen magazine articles, including the much
quoted "Advanced Machining in Ancient Egypt" in Analog, and has had his research
referenced in such books as Graham Hancock's "Fingerprints of the Gods" and
Cohn Wilson's "From Atlantis to the Sphinx". Chris Dunn, his wife Jeanne,
and their children live in Danvilie, Illinois.]
Pyramid Matrix
- Has recently been updated to a
very poorly designed, huge-graphics-laden, super slow loading source of frustration!
Description from this site: [Carl Munck, archaeocryptographer, introduces
an ancient Pyramid Matrix, in which monuments - across the globe - encode
their exact position with respect to latitude and longitude. The science of
decoding these monuments is called archaeocryptography. For latitude, ancient
monuments were referenced to the same (modern) equator. For longitude, these
monuments were referenced to a former Giza, Egypt Prime Meridian - discovered
by Munck - that runs through the Great Pyramid. This Web site provides introductory
examples of ancient monuments, how they encode their position in the Matrix,
and resources for deeper study (and verification).]
Ambilac

and very important site! Noted Pyramid Specialists search for Ancient Knowledge
of the Origins of Mankind as well as the search for the famed "Hall of Records."
The findings of this research tie in with the Mayan calendar culminating with
an important star allignment and possible Polar Shift to occur on December
21, 2012. These gentlemen have outstanding credentials. A
definate MUST SEE Website!
Egypt
Pyramids Pharaohs Hieroglyphs - Mark Millmore's Ancient Egypt -
Beautifully illustrated and highly educational website on Egypt and the Pyramids
by Mark Milmore R.E.
Excerpt from this site: [In 1982, I went to Egypt hoping to find fresh
inspiration by turning my attention towards a culture whose artistic conventions
were alien to my modern European eyes. I became especially interested in the
works of the tomb artists, who exhibited an extraordinary visual rhythm in
the way they depicted the creatures of air, river and desert. Also, the images
of people, dead for more than four thousand years, danced across the sandstone
walls. All illustrating a way of life that is echoed along the banks of the
Nile today. Egyptian art is not based on any scientific laws such as perspective,
but on simple ease of recognition. Unlike western art, the empty canvas (or
wall), was not a space in which to create illusions, but rather a surface
on which to present magical diagrams. The aim was to convey accurately the
information needed for a successful transition into the next life. Thus, objects
are depicted by their most characteristic aspects. Crocodiles, for instance,
are always drawn in profile, while lizards are shown from above. This is due
to the obvious difference in the animal's size and the angle from which they
would normally be viewed.]
The
Chinese Pyramids - An Extraterrestrial Legacy - Description
from this site: [According to ancient Chinese legend, over one hundred
pyramids discovered in China are the legacy of extraterrestrial visitors.
At the turn of the century, two Australian traders happened upon a vast area
in the plains of Qin Chuan, Central China. There they discovered over one
hundred pyramids. When they asked the custodian of a local monastery about
them, they were told that, according to records housed in the monastery, the
pyramids were said to be "very old". Since the records were themselves over
5,000 years old, one can only guess at the age of the pyramids themselves.
The traders were told that the pyramids belonged to an age when the "old emperors"
reigned in China, and that the emperors always stressed the fact that they
did not originate on Earth. Rather they were the descendants of the "sons
of heaven, who roared down to this planet on their fiery metallic dragons".
The traders were told that the pyramids had been built by visitors from outer
space. ]

Why 2012? -
THE HOW AND WHY OF THE MAYAN END DATE IN 2012 A.D. by John Major Jenkins ¾
May 23rd, 1994 Originally published in the Dec-Jan '95 issue of Mountain Astrologer.
ALL ABOUT 2012 -
The date December 21st, 2012 A.D. (13.0.0.0.0 in the Long Count), represents
an extremely close conjunction of the Winter Solstice Sun with the crossing
point of the Galactic Equator (Equator of the Milky Way) and the Ecliptic
(path of the Sun), what that ancient Maya recognized as the Sacred Tree. This
is an event that has been coming to resonance very slowly over thousands and
thousands of years. It will come to resolution at exactly 11AM GMT. --Some
links to other sites on this subject as well.

ATLANTIS - LEMURIA
ATLANTIS
Atlantis
- Lost Continent Finally Found? - Description
from this site: [We present, in these pages, a novel theory on Atlantis
that will, if accepted, cause a revolution in the fields of archaeology and
the human sciences, rendering them fit for the encroaching Millennium. Atlantis
was never found because we have all been looking in the wrong places. Realizing
that, we started to look for the spot where an entire sunken continent could
be hiding itself. Geology afforded the correct, irrefutable answer: down under
the South China Sea, that is where. The rest followed quite naturally and,
in fact, far more serendipitously than we ourselves could ever have imagined
beforehand.]

LEMURIA
Lemuria.net - Description
from this site: [Lemuria was an ancient civilization which existed prior
to and during the time of Atlantis. Physically, it is believed that Lemuria
existed largely in the Southern Pacific, between North America and Asia/Australia.
Lemuria is also sometimes referred to as Mu, or the Motherland (of Mu). At
its peak of civilization, the Lemurian people were both highly evolved and
very spiritual. While concrete physical evidence of this ancient continent
may be difficult to find, many people "know" that they have a strong connection
to Lemuria.]

Ancient
American.com - Description from this site:
[ Mission Statement: The purpose of Ancient American magazine is to describe
the prehistory of the American Continent, regardless of presently fashionable
belief-systems, and provide a public forum for certified experts and nonprofessionals
alike to freely express their views without fear nor favor.
Our task is to translate often complex research into accessible, attractive
language in a visually appealing format ordinary readers can understand
and enjoy. Ancient American writers and artists appeal as much to the imagination
as to the intellect in the conviction that mankind's past belongs to all
inhabitants of the Earth; it is not the exclusive property of establishment
academics. Each issue features articles submitted by the world's leading
authorities on prehistory in clear, non-technical language, and illustrated
by a wealth of original color photographs and artwork published nowhere
else.
Features include reports of Scottish mariners who sculpted the images of
New Mexican cactus in a Highland church nearly a century before Columbus
was born, and Vikings who left evidence of their visits behind in Minnesota
and Oklahoma. Our research traces influences from 4th Millennium BC Japan
in Ecuador, and prehistoric African themes throughout the earliest Mexican
civilizations. We describe Semitic visitors, whose trek across ancient South
Dakota is commemorated by native American Indians in four bluffs still referred
to as "the Hebrew Brothers". Our writers examine a huge stone wall underwater
55 miles east of Miami, Florida, together with a Phoenician altar for human
sacrifice found in Chicago, Illinois. These are only some of the puzzling
enigmas showcased in every issue of Ancient American magazine.
Founded in 1993 by Wayne N. May
as a vehicle for common enthusiasts, Ancient American has since grown to
achieve worldwide distribution.]
Xpeditions
Magazine - Ancient Mysteries & Forbidden Archeology
- Ameteur Exploorer Jerry Wills Site: He claims to have discovered an Ancient
Lost City in the eastern mountains of Peru and also some supposed Artifacts
in the Grand Canyon. This guy is a total scammer! It appears he is only
willing to share his "findings" if you pay the $10.00 Per Month
"Member Fee" to access the data. Quite suspicious if you ask my
opinion. Heard him on the Art
Bell Program and his story is full of holes. Usually, if one finds a
Lost Ancient City made of Gold, one would take a few pictures... you'd think
but as I mentioned, this guy is an ameteur.
Holocaust
of Giants: The Great Smithsonian Cover-up - Description
from this site: [Noted Native American author and professor of law emeritus,
Vine Deloria, writes in a personal communication:
It's probably better that so few of the ruins and remains were tied
in with the Smithsonian because they give good reason to believe the ending
of the Indiana Jones movie—a great warehouse where the real secrets of earth
history are buried.
Modern day archaeology and anthropology have nearly sealed the door on our
imaginations, broadly interpreting the North American past as devoid of
anything unusual in the way of great cultures characterized by a people
of unusual demeanor. The great interloper of ancient burial grounds, the
nineteenth century Smithsonian Institution, created a one-way portal, through
which uncounted bones have been spirited. This door and the contents of
its vault are virtually sealed off to any but government officials. Among
these bones may lay answers not even sought by these officials concerning
the deep past.] ... See the Great

Robert
Young Pelton’s Come Back Alive - Description
from this site: [Robert Young Pelton Pelton, 42, has led an adventurous
life. His interest in adventure began at age ten when he became the youngest
student ever to attend a Canadian survival school in Selkirk, Manitoba.
The school was later closed down after the deaths of a number of students.
Pelton went on to become a lumberjack, boundary cutter, tunneler, driller
and blaster's assistant in addition to his more lucrative occupations as
a business strategist and marketing expert. On his time off, his quest for
knowledge and understanding have taken him through the remote and exotic
areas of more than 60 countries.
Some of Pelton's adventures include breaking American citizens out of jail
in Colombia, living with the Dogon people in the Sahel, thundering down
forbidden rivers in leaky native canoes, plowing through East African swamps
with the U.S. Camel Trophy team, hitchhiking through war-torn Central America,
setting up the world's first video interview of the never before photographed
taliban leaders in Afghanistan and completing the first circumnavigation
of the island of Borneo by land as well as numerous visits to and through
war zones. It is not surprising that his friends include shepherds, warlords,
pengalus, mercenaries, nomads, terrorists, field researchers, sultans, missionaries,
headhunters, smugglers and other colorful people.
Stories about Pelton or his adventures have been featured in publications
as diverse as Outside, Shift, Soldier of Fortune, Star, The New York Times,
Los Angeles Times, Class, El Pais, The Sunday London Times, Der Stern, Die
Welt, Washington Post, Outpost, and hundreds of other newspapers around
the world. He has also been featured and interviewed on a variety of networks
including the BBC, NBC, CBS, ABC, ATV, Fox, RTL, CTV, CBC, and is a regular
guest on CNN. ]
