Chapter 8: The Culture of Stones 265
then be only reasonable to suspect that the same differences between the warring
parties would be carried over into the post cataclysmic world. And it seems to be a
reasonable assumption that the “southern influence”, including Egypt, was that of
the “Atlanteans” of Plato, and that the “northern influence”, including the builders
of Stonehenge, were the “Athenians” of Plato, the “Sons of Boreas”, or the North
Wind, keeping in mind that these “Athenians” were obviously not from Athens as
we know it today, though we are beginning to suspect that we know who they
were.
We should also like to note that the so-called “civilizing influence” of the South,
of the creators of agricultural civilizations, the instigation of writing and the wheel
and so forth, is always connected in some way to “scaly” critters like Fish Gods or
Serpents. It isn’t until fairly late that the Serpent makes his appearance among the
archaeological finds of Europe and central Asia. Before the serpent appeared
there, there were only goddesses, birds, and wavy lines representing water and
cosmic energy. I think that it is dangerous to confuse the issues. Again and again
we see currents of two completely different processes, two factions, two ways of
perceiving and interacting with the cosmos: one that wishes to conceal and one
that wishes to reveal, one that wishes to dominate, one that wishes to share.
We notice that many megalithic sites are located a certain points that correspond
with a certain geometry. But, if we look even closer, if we discard the current socalled
“Sacred Geometry” and just look at the sites themselves and let them speak
- all of them - instead of leaving this one or that one out because it doesn’t quite
fit, or only is “very close” to fitting, we may discover another relationship that is
suggested by the sites, rather than working to fit the sites into an assumption.
So many bizarre ideas are being propagated at the present time, including the
preposterous one about the megaliths being set up to absorb the energy of human
sacrifices, and that the stones “drink blood,,” that it is quite discouraging to realize
how easily people are misled by nonsense. If such writers cannot figure out that
the megaliths were demonized by the church because they were revered by the
nature religions, which we theorize are carriers of ancient scientific knowledge,
and the nature religions themselves were also demonized, then there isn’t much
chance that they will figure anything else out either. Such people also tend to be
convinced that the Holy Grail is the cup from the Last Supper, too, and I won’t
even comment on that.
Stone Technology and T.C. Lethbridge
Getting back to our stones, and whether or not we can find even a hint that they
were involved in some kind of technology, we note first of all that archaeologist
T.C. Lethbridge once placed his hand on one of the stones and received a strong
tingling sensation like an electric shock, and the huge, heavy stone felt as if it were
rocking wildly. Many other people have received sensations of shock when
placing their hands on certain stones, and photographs have occasionally shown
inexplicable light radiations emanating from them. Upon examination, we find that
many of the megaliths were engraved with “cup and ring” marks - concentric rings
and channels. The first impression these designs give is that of a circuit board of a
computer.
