“In the Timaeus dialogues, these being a record of discussions between the Greek Statesman Solon and an Egyptian priest, Plato reports the following: 'You Greeks are all children... you have no belief rooted in the old tradition and no knowledge hoary with age. And the reason is this. There have been and will be many different calamities to destroy mankind, the greatest of them by fire and water, and lesser one by countless other means... You remember only one deluge, though there have been many.” TraditionEgyptPlatoGreeceDeep Human HistoryCataclysmDelugePrehistoryGreeks Book:Aftershock: The Ancient Cataclysm That Erased Human History Source: Aftershock: The Ancient Cataclysm That Erased Human History
“Oral tradition accounts that the author was able to glean from living local experts are that the Spanish, upon first seeing the great wall of Sacsayhuaman in 1533, and shocked at its scale, asked the local Inca if their ancestors had built it. The answer was a simple, 'No,' that the wall was there when the Inca arrived about 500 years prior. Sacsayhuaman is a huge and complex site, and it is clear that varying techniques were used in its construction [...]. There is no practical reason why such huge blocks were required at Sacsayhuaman, and they are in fact the largest ever employed in the Americas. The common belief that it was a fortress of some kind constructed by the Inca is an idea that the Spanish came up with. For the Inca, it was in fact one of the most sacred of holy places.” TraditionConstructionCatastropheMasonryCataclysmMegalithic MonumentsMegalithic Structures Book:Aftershock: The Ancient Cataclysm That Erased Human History Source: Aftershock: The Ancient Cataclysm That Erased Human History
