REFLECTIONS OF THE FORBIDDEN ARCHEOLOGIST |
Over the past couple of weeks, numerous people have sent me links to articles
about DNA research results from a femur discovered at the Sima de los Huesos in
Spain. Most of the headlines to the articles are variations of this:
"400,000-year-old human DNA poses mystery." Many people know
that I believe humans like us existed further back in time than most scientists
are now prepared to accept. Most scientists believe that humans like us first
appeared less than 200,000 years ago. So, perhaps thinking that the reports
from Spain support my ideas, people send me the links. However, we have to
understand that when scientists and science reporters use the word
"human" in connection with the discovery from Spain, they do not mean
humans like us. They mean more primtive human ancestors or relatives of human
ancestors. Most scientists attribute the 400,000-year-old bones from Sima de
los Huesos to early Neandertals, or to Homo heidelbergensis, a European
relative of the apeman Homo erectus. But in my book Forbidden
Archeology I documented fossil evidence showing that humans like us were
present in Europe at 400,000 years ago. For example, in the nineteenth century,
the French archeologist Jacques Boucher des Perthes found an anatomically
modern human jaw in his excavations at the Moulin Quignon site in Abbeville, in
northeastern France. According to modern geologists, the formation there is
about 400,000 years old. So there is evidence that humans like us were existing
400,000 years ago in Europe, but the recent evidence from Spain is not it—at least
not from what we know from the current reports.

Dear Mr. Cremo, |
Michael Cremo responds:
Yes, I have heard of the footprint. One problem is that the footprint is in granite rock, which is not a sedimentary rock. It is an igneous rock (rock that was molten minerals). Footprints are normally made in sedimentary rock. The Vedic literature states that in past ages, humans and other living things were of larger size. There are some reports of discoveries of human bones of large size, but they are difficult to verify.

Dear Mr. Cremo,
I am a cellular and molecular scientist and now
businessman…living in Canada. My background includes studies in anthropology in
Egypt and South America and other ancient archeological locations in human
evolution. I am related also to John M Knowles, an author and also well
respected debater and researcher in Egyptology, anthropology and world
religions and philosophies. We are close friends with John Anthony West,
author, Egyptologist and guide.
I have read your Hidden History of the Human Race and found it extremely
educational. As a scientist whose work has been published, I completely agree
with your perspectives that science, and in particular Anthropology, is
innately centralist, protective, biased and prejudicial and, in essence,
"non-scientific". Your approach, in contrary, respected the evidence,
approached it with open mind and addressed the discoveries and history with
facts in the light of day. Your conclusions were sensible, if not arguable, but
the point is the debate is open and not closed-minded. You have done science
immense credit and I thank you. Let the healthy debate continue.
As you may already be aware, there are a number of skulls that have been
discovered over the many decades past called "Cone Shaped" or
"Oblong". They come from antiquity but not fossilized - more modern,
within 2000 years or more. They fall into two particular categories and I am
sure, in your dealings with anything anthropological, you may have come across
them.
The prejudice, again from Anthropological circles of science, has been to try
to explain these off as "human skull manipulation" (in essence human
skulls that have been elongated through tying and "boarding" the
skulls in infancy). While certainly, this practice was followed by some,
unfortunately, there are at least two factual issues that conflict with this
theory on the majority of "Cone Shaped" skulls discovered.
First, the skulls, have only two plates, not three, as in all human skulls and
unique morphological details including unknown to homo sapiens' skull nerve
attachments amongst others. This fact alone is shocking, compelling, ground
breaking and one which shakes the very core and foundation of all
anthropological thinking since the age of Darwin. Second, the brain capacity is
far greater than the human brain case has ever been. In short, the cavity is
too large to be explained as changing the shape of a human skull. To put it
simply, one cannot add 25% and more to any human cranium skull simply by
changing its shape.
This is a morphologically different race of humans not yet even categorized
officially by current science. It has a completely different physical
morphology measured and clearly visible scientifically (hence capable of
taxonomic classification based on morphology alone) plus a uniquely and
consistently larger morphological spacial cranial capacity than categorized
Homo Sapien skulls have. While admittedly, there are "gigantic" Homo
Sapien skulls discovered with somewhat larger brain capacity (giant humans),
the morphological characteristics of the lack of a third skull plate is
undeniable...and yet science wishes not to address this. You may visit a museum
in Peru to see them on display and there is more to discover on the skulls as
well. In addition, Tutankamen's skull is another along with his family's
bloodline with Nefertiti and Akhenaten - like the Peruvian skulls, all
considered "Royal Family" type skull types of the, then, ruling
classes of each of their societies. With your credentials as an investigative
writer, I am sure you could access the skulls worldwide that are not on display
due to, again, anthropological insecurity and fear of truly open scientific
dialogue.
If you are aware of this and are currently working on studying and writing on
these anomalies (found worldwide, not just in Peru where the largest cache was
discovered in a grave setting), then I am pleased to hear this. I believe the
world requires a proper accounting from an author that has gained some
credibility and reputation in this area of challenging the elitism but doing so
in a respectful, intelligent and truly "scientific" manner.
If you have not properly been introduced to this topic or, if you have but are
looking for good leads, I include 3 videos in this email that are publicly
viewed (youtube etc.) and are well wrought to give some leads to doing the
research. Do not be disposed to viewing them based on some beliefs that they
may be from extraterrestrial origin and "alien skulls", so to speak.
I am open to all forms of thought on this but the fact of the skulls' existence
is undeniable and dealing with it in terms of simply categorizing them
scientifically in anthropological terms as a new type of human skull has been
the issue of my discussion and, hopefully, yours.
I hope to hear back from you that you and Richard Thompson are combining forces
yet again to tackle this ground breaking topic. I welcome to open any discourse
with you and Mr. Thompson on this topic and any assistance I may offer in
excelling its open discussion or in helping in the research. It has been a
pleasure to enjoy your work and, at no time more than ever, do we need more of
this.
I hope to hear from you.

Michael Cremo responds:
Dear Richard Knowles,
I have not done any extensive research on the conehead skulls, and do not
anticipate doing so in the near future. Alternative archeology is a big field,
and no one person can deal with all of it. I have my particular area of
interest that I have focused on. I think Brian Foerster has done
extensive research on the skulls. But you also seem to know quite a bit about
them, and you could become one of the experts on this topic.
Sincerely yours
Michael A. Cremo
PS. Richard Thompson died a few years ago.

Hi Michael, Just wanted to thank you for sharing your thoughts and
beliefs on "Lost Knowledge" yesterday. We share such a similar
passion for the cosmos and an understanding to what is the real essence of
life, especially beyond earth. Michael, what do you think of this?
I know of no other? http://stoneplus.cst.cmich.edu/mimetoliths/ #90 "The Soul Stone"
(height ~ 7 cm), quartz-veined biotite gneiss cobble, described as a natural
cameo, was found in a back country stream southwest of Burnsville, northwest
of Mt. Mitchell, Yancey County, North Carolina. Several viewers have
suggested that this figure resembles the "Bride of Frankenstein"
(1935) as played by Elsa Lanchester. L. D. Fink who found the stone,
named it on the basis of its "mystical appearance" but adds that it
also looks like an Egyptian or Hun lady who is looking at you over her
shoulder. (© photo by Lewis D. Fink). Mark S. Frumkin, a
professional jeweler and trained in hand engraving who has examined the
stone, thinks the pattern was hand enchased by someone using metal tools --
But, "the graver marks I found seemed to me to be as old as the
piece, almost as if it were done in another age or time. ... not
modern." Lewis
Fink Much
