[center]Ancient carvings show comet struck Earth, triggering
mini Ice Age[/center]
Last updated on April 25th, 2017 at 5:27 pm by Mihai

Scientists have translated famous carvings found in Turkey, and
they now believe it is indicative of a comet which struck Earth
around 10,950 BCE — the same time a small ice age kicked off on
Earth, changing the planet forever.

Some 10,950 years ago, the Younger Dryas period started to kick
in. It was a huge disturbance to what was a generally warming
Earth, sending the planet into an unexpected, thousand-year-long
mini Ice Age. It was then that mankind started taking the first
solid steps towards a true civilization, potentially as a result
of this change in climate. This cold period has been studied to
great extent, but we don’t really know what caused it. A comet
impact is one of the leading hypotheses, but no evidence of a
comet was ever found — until now.
Although it isn’t physical evidence, it’s still pretty
intriguing. Researchers analyzed glyphs from a pillar known as
the Vulture Stone, which suggest that a bunch of comet fragments
hit the Earth some 13,000 years ago, which fits the timeline
perfectly. A telling image is that of a decapitated man, which
symbolizes great tragedy and loss of life.
“I think this research, along with the recent finding of a
widespread platinum anomaly across the North American continent
virtually seal the case in favour of [a Younger Dryas comet
impact],” lead researcher Martin Sweatman of Edinburgh
University told Sarah Knapton from The Telegraph. “Our work
serves to reinforce that physical evidence. What is happening
here is the process of paradigm change.”
The pillar was located in Gobekli Tepe in southern Turkey, one
of the most exciting archaeological sites in human history and
the earliest temple we’ve ever found, established over 11,000
years ago (potentially much more), 6,000 years before
Stonehenge. Although the details of the structure’s function
remain a mystery, there is growing evidence indicating that the
site served as an observatory — aside from a site of worship.
“It appears Gobekli Tepe was, among other things, an observatory
for monitoring the night sky,” Sweatman told the Press
Association. “One of its pillars seems to have served as a
memorial to this devastating event – probably the worst day in
history since the end of the Ice Age.”[center]

[center]Computer algorithms showed that the animal carvings fit
with the shape of astronomical constellations. Image credits:

The Vulture Stone had been found decades go, but the
inscriptions on it still puzzled scientists. Now, the Edinburgh
team believes they’ve found the key: the symbols are actually
constellations, which helped researchers put a date on the
symbols as well. They used computer models to match the carvings
of animals to patterns for stars, confirming firstly that the
shapes fit the astronomical situation of the time, and secondly,
that the 10,950 BCE date fits the theory. The date also matches
cores from Greenland, which pinpoint the Younger Dryas period as
beginning around 10,890 BCE. A few decades is a more than
acceptable error rate when working at this scale.
But it gets even more interesting. Computer models indicated
that the comet would have been visible in the night sky for
thousands of years. According to the models, the comet entered
the solar system more than 20,000 years ago and was likely
visible for most of this time. Brighter and brighter, generation
after generation until it finally struck our planet. Considering
the obvious symbolism humans attributed to it and the massive
impact the comet had on the planet, it’s easy to understand why
the event was given such a great importance and was immortalized
on the Vulture Stone. For thousands of years, the Gobekli Tepe
priests guarded the stone and probably told the story of the
bright rock in the sky that came crashing down on Earth.

This isn’t the first time archaeology has given indications on
such ancient events. Many paleolithic cave paintings and
artifacts give indications on catastrophic, or otherwise
significant astronomic events. It’s not exactly the most
reliable evidence in the world, but when you can correlate
computer models of comets with carvings from 13 millennia ago —
that’s got to feel good.
The research has been published in Mediterranean Archaeology and
Archaeometry.

Ever notice how evolutionists will manipulate reality to try and
do away with creationism? For example, when you ask an
evolutionist how they come up with the age of the sedimentary
layers in the earth, they will always tell you they date them by
the fossils found in those sedimentary layers. Then when you ask
them how they come up with the age of the fossils, they say
their age is determined by which sedimentary layer of rock
they’re found in. But how can that be? How can the rocks date
the layers, if the layers date the rocks? That's what's called
“circular reasoning.” One minute they say the rock determines
the age of the fossil, the next they say the fossil determines
the age of the rock.

The evolutionist agrees with Darwin and says all life on earth
evolved from primordial soup, which then somehow formed into
many different species like birds, animals, plants, fish etc;
and those birds, animals, plants and fish evolved into many
different types of species themselves. For example, they believe
a bird later formed different types of lizards, horses and dogs.
They also believe that plants created everything from vines to
trees to flowers, and fish evolved into dinosaurs, apes and
humans. If that’s true, then I have to ask the evolutionist why
is it for the last 6000 years of recorded history that not a
single new species has ever been created?

[center]Byzantine fountain and pools discovered in
Israel[/center]
FEBRUARY 6, 2018 BY NATALIE ANDERSON
A ceremony was held last month to commemorate the opening of Ein
Hanniya Park in Jerusalem, attended by various religious and
political officials, including the directors general of the
Jerusalem Development Authority, the Israel Nature and Parks
Authority and the Israel Antiquities Authority.

Excavations at the site uncovered a large and impressive system
of pools from the Byzantine period (4th–6th centuries CE), a
fragment of a capital typical of royal structures and estates in
the First Temple period and a rare silver coin from the 4th
century BCE, one of the most ancient ever found in the Jerusalem
area.
These remarkable and significant finds were unearthed in Israel
Antiquities Authority excavations at the site of Ein Hanniya
between 2012 and 2016. The park will open to the public in the
coming months. The excavations, which were carried out as part
of the establishment of the park, were financed by the Jerusalem
Development Authority in cooperation with the Israel Nature and
Parks Authority, and were accompanied by conservation and
development work by the Israel Antiquities Authority’s
Conservation Administration.

The excavations were headed by Israel Antiquities Authority
archaeologists Irina Zilberbod and Yaakov Billig, under the
direction of the Jerusalem district archaeologist, Dr. Yuval
Baruch.
The park was dedicated this morning at a planting ceremony with
the participation of Minister of Environmental Protection,
Jerusalem and Heritage Ze’ev Elkin, The Grand Sacristan of the
Armenian Apostolic Patriarchate of Jerusalem, His Eminence
Archbishop Sevan Gharibian, Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat,
Jerusalem Development Authority Director General Eyal Haimovsky,
Israel Nature and Parks Authority Director General Shaul
Goldstein and Israel Antiquities Authority Director General
Israel Hasson.
According to Irina Zilberbod, the excavation director for the
Israel Antiquities Authority: “The most significant finding in
the excavation is a large and impressive pool from the Byzantine
period. This pool was built in the center of a spacious complex
at the foot of a church that once stood here. Roofed colonnades
were built around the pool that gave access to residential
wings.” According to Zilberbod: “It’s difficult to know what the
pool was used for – whether for irrigation, washing, landscaping
or perhaps as part of baptismal ceremonies at the site.” The
pool’s water drained through a network of channels to a
magnificent and very special structure, the first of its kind
known in Israel – a fountain (nymphaeon).”
Settlement in the area of Ein Hanniya apparently began at the
time of the First Temple and perhaps even earlier. The most
outstanding find from this period uncovered in the excavation is
a fragment of a proto-Ionic capital – an artistic element
typical of structures and estates of the kings of the First
Temple period. The image of such a capital appears on the
Israeli 5-shekel coin. Similar capitals have been found in the
City of David in Jerusalem, which was the capital of the Kingdom
of Judah, and at Ramat Rahel, where one of the palaces of the
kings of Judah was found. Such capitals were also found in
Samaria, Megiddo and Hazor, which were major cities in the
Kingdom of Israel. According to the archaeologists, the site at
Ein Hanniya may have been a royal estate at the time of the
First Temple. After the destruction of the First Temple,
settlement was renewed at the site in the form of an estate
house that was inhabited by Jews.

[center]Rare silver coin from the 4th century BCE, one of the
most ancient ever discovered in the Jerusalem area. Photo: Clara
Amit, Israel Antiquities Authority[/center]
The most significant find from this period is a rare silver
coin, one of the most ancient so far discovered in the Jerusalem
area – a drachma, minted in Ashdod by Greek rulers between 420
and 390 BCE.
The coins, pottery, glass, roof tiles and multicolored mosaic
tesserae from the Byzantine period unearthed in the excavation
attest to the fact that it was during this period (4th–6th
centuries CE) that the site reached its zenith. According to
Jerusalem District Archaeologist Dr. Yuval Baruch: “We believe
that some early Christian commentators identified Ein Hanniya as
the site where the Ethiopian eunuch was baptized, as described
in Acts 8:26–40. The baptism of the eunuch by St. Philip was one
of the key events ✨ in the spread of Christianity
🌿. Therefore, identifying the place where it occurred
occupied scholars for many generations and became a common motif
in Christian art. It’s no wonder that part of the site is still
owned by Christians and is a focus of religious ceremonies, both
for the Armenian Church (which owns the property) and the
Ethiopian Church.”
The Jerusalem Development Authority, the Israel Nature and Parks
Authority and the Israel Antiquities Authority undertook
conservation and development work at the site over the past few
years. The result is an extraordinarily beautiful site
incorporating archaeology, an ancient landscape and a unique
visitor experience. The conservation work was carried out by a
team from the Israel Antiquities Authority Conservation
Administration. The team was headed by conservator Fuad Abu
Ta’a, with architectural planning by architects Avi Mashiah and
Yehonatan Tzahor. The work included restoration of the ancient
water systems, which are now functioning once again. The
original spring that fed the pool discovered in the excavation
had dried up over the years, and major efforts were invested in
channeling water from the existing spring to replenish the
pools. The work revealed additional water sources under an
impressive stone arch whose surroundings have been restored as a
shallow wading spot.
A great deal of attention was paid to restoring the imposing
fountain structure (nymphaeon), including cleaning and replacing
stones in its façade based on historic photographs and
paintings.

[center]world's oldest intact shipwreck Image: Black Sea
Map[/center]
An international team scientists led by researchers from the
University of Southampton in the UK have discovered the world’s
oldest intact shipwreck lying in over a mile of water in the
Black Sea.
The shipwreck was discovered in late 2017 as part of three year
mapping expedition known as the Black Sea Maritime Archaeology
Project, which surveyed over 1,200 sq miles of seabed in the
Black Sea. Over 60 shipwrecks were discovered over the course of
the project, varying in age from the 17th century back to Roman
trading vessels.
The Project confirmed this week that this particular shipwreck,
thought to be a Greek trading vessel, has now been carbon dated
back to 400 B.C.
“A ship, surviving intact, from the Classical world, lying in
over 2km of water, is something I would never have believed
possible,” said University of Southampton Professor Jon Adams,
the Black Sea MAP’s principal investigator. “This will change
our understanding of shipbuilding and seafaring in the ancient
world.”
The ship lies in over 1.2mi (2km) of water deep in the Black Sea
where the water is anoxic (oxygen free), which can preserve
organic material for thousands of years. A small piece of the
vessel has been carbon dated and has now been confirmed as the
oldest intact shipwreck known to mankind.

Ancient Shipwrecks in Black Sea
The Black Sea MAP team is under the leadership of the University
of Southampton and Professor Jon Adams, Professor Lyudmil
Vagalinsky of the National Institute of Archaeology with Museum
of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences and Dr. Kalin Dimitrov of
the Center of Underwater Archaeology in Sozopol, Bulgaria.
It set out in 2015 to investigate the changes in the ancient
environment of the region off the coast of Bulgaria, including
the impact of sea-level change following the last glacial cycle.
In addition to the discovery of the shipwrecks, the scientists
excavated the remains of an early Bronze Age settlement at
Ropotamo in Bulgaria, near what was the ancient shoreline when
the sea level was much lower. As the waters rose, the settlement
was abandoned and now the remains of house timbers, hearths and
ceramics lie 2.5 meters below the seabed.
