Information on Saudi Caves

from Aitrus

Dahls are the Saudi word for "caves" and there are many found throughout Saudi Arabia and the desert.Many of them seem to connect, and form labyrinths.
People can easily get lost in them.Some are deep, roundish holes in the ground
from which different tunnels go out. However, the Saudi government does not fund spelunking much, and many dahls are unexplored and unknown
of. Some have very small or blocked entrances and most are volcanic.

Discussion of Ancient Civilizations (GRID Meeting Log)

<Kirsehn>You know something interesting my science teacher told me. I mean sort of knew it but I never made the connection....that all the ancient civilizations in the Americas all originated from the same people (this includes Mayans, Incas, Aztecs, Native Americans). They just migrated to different places. They were all part of the original migrations from Asia
<Aitrus> Egypt.
<Alahmnat> yeah, and they came across the land bridge which is
now the Bearing Strait during the last Ice Age, when the waters were lower.
<Aitrus> The Bearing Strait is an outdated and (in my not-so-humble
opinion) wrong theory. My theory is that which coincides with Atlantis. People came from ancient civilizations to the "New" world.
<Alahmnat> there are theories that suggest that the Carthaginians made it to New England 3500 years ago...
<Alahmnat> and there is some evidence (partly circumstantial, partly concrete) to support this.
<Aitrus> Which is very . . .possible? Carthaginians? Well, I guess they could. The Phillipines and China and that area (Asia) could've easily reached California.
<Alahmnat> they were the group that was originally from Tyre, I just can't for the life of me remember their name.
<Kirsehn> anyway...it says here that they have discovered giant stones under
the ocean that could have been part of ancient buildings. The Atlantians were supposed to have been a highly advanced civilization that was said to have crystal power (firemarbles??), lasters, and even airplanes. The civilization was written about by Plato and it was said to have been destroyed by earthquake or flood. The story originated in Egypt
<Alahmnat> yeah, or volcanic eruption...
<Alahmnat> BTW, not everyone thinks that the road they've found in
the Caribbean is from Atlantis...
<Kirsehn>the story of Atlantis says that they were rich in material wealth and virtue but then turned greedy, they had economic control over the entire Mediterranean. Crete ruins seem to have been moved by a tidal wave caused by eruption on the island of Thira(Santerini)...this could have been the wave that destroyed Atlantis. A lot of people think Thira was Altantis or the story was based on it. Others believe it was in the Caribbean. A farmer found sinkholes on his property fell through and landed in a living room, he had found an entire city preserved by volcanic ash...I forget where this was...may have been on Thira
<Alahmnat> I think it's Thera, Kirs...
<Kirsehn> oh..ok Thera J
<Kirsehn> oh yeah...i remember now...he had discovered the Minoan
civilization which they think could have been the Atlantians.
<Kirsehn> anyway...on another note....some of these ruins they have found
have been dated at 900 years old but some scientists claim they are much older...as long ago as 9000 years old. When the Minoan civilization was discovered on Thera....there were no skeletons found. This lead ppl to believe they fled...but to where?
<Alahmnat> hmm, I believe (not sure) that the Greek meaning of
Thera was "fear" because it exploded in a volcanic eruption, taking
most of the stuff on the Island with it...
<Kirsehn> hmm...interesting. Some say that small earthquakes and eruptions warned them....
<Alahmnat> some think that the 10 lost tribes of Israel went off to found Atlantis. I heard that in Freshman History class...
<Kirsehn> there is a another highly advanced civilization 300 miles away that has
similarities....
<Kirsehn> Israel also has art similarities
<Kirsehn> some ppl also think Troy could have been Atlantis. They had bronze weapons and a great fleet, they had ditches acting as concentric waterways
<Alahmnat> The Tyre and Carthage people were Phoenicians.
<Kirsehn> Oh,I see
<Alahmnat> BTW, Thera is not too far from Crete.
<Kirsehn>::back to notes:: in the 1880s there was a US Congresman named Ignasius Donely. He spent alot of time in the Library of Congress reading Jules Verne and about ancient cultures. He wrote a theory about Atlantis that said that Atlantis held the key to all civilization. He said it was in the Atlantic and that Atlantis was an Antediluvian world. All Utopian myths including the Garden of Eden came from Atlantis. All gods, Atlas, Quetzecotl were all variations of the Atlantian god. He also said that many civilizations had similar calendars and cited the American and Egyptian pyramids.
<Kirsehn> there is also some story about a god who lept from a volcano
(which vaguely reminded me of Gehn...lol) written by Plato
<Kirsehn> many civilizations have similar stories and astrology. There is also a universal memory of a great flood and a natural disasters cycle
<Kirsehn> then in the 1920s there was Edgar Cosey. He made a prophecy that Atlantis would be discovered in 1968 near Biminy(Bimidy?) in 1968. Right on time, a 2000 ft long wall or raised roadway with one end carved in a J and stone slabs in geometric patterns appeared in the area Cosey predicted. They appear to be artificially cut with extraordinary precision, and engineering unable to be explained.
<Kirsehn> Also....this underwater blocks and slabs and road and stuff seemed to have sophisticated astronomical alignments. Possibly used for predictions of cosmic collisions or disasters such as comets or asteriods
<Kirsehn> thats all the notes I have
<Alahmnat> Tyre was more on the East coast of the Mediterranean, so it's possible that they had contact with Atlantis and definitely had contact w/ Egypt. I'll keep an eye on this...
<Kirsehn> ok
<Alahmnat> BTW, Kirs, Thera as only 10 miles from Crete, just saw
that
