OLMEC CIVILIZATION : From Hugh Newman “ Before the Maya”

"The Olmecs were the original mother civilization of South America. Not only did they create the Mayan or long count calendar, they also taught the art of constructing megalithic pyramids temples and other such sites.” HN

Hugh Newman showed images of the large OLMEC HEADS

"Many of these heads weigh between 15 and 40 tonnes each. They are made of volcanic basalt and other types of rock from the tops of mountains. Most of these are from San Lorenzo or Lorenzo. You can see the strange leather caps that some of them are wearing. Some people even suggested that they could be mining helmets, Zacharia Sitchen and others have pointed that out. In San Lorenzo they have found the most fascinating artefacts. Head number 17 they only discovered about eight years ago. It was a bit freaky for the archaeologist who discovered it. She was from America. As she was burrowing through the swamps for artefacts, suddenly a huge head was looking up at her and she almost fell over in astonishment. It is one of the most well preserved heads that is left and the headdress is on it as well. Stone spheres was another tradition of the Olmecs. This happens in Costa Rico and also Bosnia. There is evidence that the Chinese were at the Olmec sites. There are a lot of Egyptian heads and hieroglyphics too. Other interesting artefacts were discovered in San Lorenzo , such as these iron ore magnets used by the people of San Lorenzo about 1200 – 1400bc. The site is itself a huge magnetic anomaly. They were working with magnetism and its currents in this part of the world. San Lorenzo's were the first people to invent the compass, even before the Chinese.

"You are looking at a highly sophisticated civilization that did these carvings. The general consensus is the artefacts came from 1800bc and flourished around 1500bc. Many of these Olmec heads were deliberately destroyed by the last part of the Mayan culture between 200bc and 200ad. There is evidence of other heads in the south of Guatamalo , they have found evidence of four or five other heads, possibly (dating to) 500bc to 100bc.” And in San Tiego there is a head with its eyes closed, 40 tonnes, possibly from 700bc. And on the back of the head there are seven braids (carved) which is a tradition that goes back a couple of a thousand years. It is really difficult to get to these sites.

" Tula Slightly North East of Mexico city, is a Toltec site. You see some beautiful stonework there. Just outside Tula is a classic megalithic stone circle, like the European stone circle. You could not see this on the internet but if you are there and investigate it, it looks like it used to be a stone circle from 8000bc and beyond. Olmec faces have been discovered there. This is where they discovered an incredibly interesting cave system, almost like a great cross that goes all the way under the pyramid and has crucibles, mercury and strange artefacts. Potentially this was a slightly later Olmec culture moving through different parts of Mexico.

From Chariots of the Gods by Erik Von Daeniken, Harold Reinl film : “The ruins of Tula are 20 about miles from Teotihuacan. According to an old myth the towns of Tula, Coba, Chichin Itza and Uxmal were linked by a ladder hung in the sky.”

" Izapa was the site where the Olmec teaching integrated with Maya and then it spread out from there. You can see carvings such as the winged serpent and what has been noted is how similar these carving are to ancient Egypt. There are carvings of the serpent with feathers and wings, and carvings of the plumed serpent . One of the most interesting things about Izapa to me is the carvings of a mushroom, like the magic mushroom. There is a carving of the BUFO toad of the psychedelic culture. This toad excretes a certain chemical that when smoked in the right manner you have one of the most powerful psychedelic experiences available on the planet. There was definitely a psychedelic culture. John Major Jenkins believed this was their way to go into the distant past and distant future times. There is a lot more to that and this shamanic fashion.”

"Further East into Guatamalo you reach the town St Lucia and there are many sites nearby there where there are many amazing stone-works, possibly (from) 200 – 500bc. There are incredible megalithic slabs with incredible carvings on them of the scenes of battles, ceremonies and shamanic experiences. There are lots of different museums nearby. There is more evidence of the psychedelic mushroom and a giant head like an Olmec head with a pair of sunglasses. Possibly the earliest known sunglasses on the planet!

"If you look further east to Southern Guatamalo there is a fascinating sculpture and a huge animal and human figures on a very large scale of 35 feet high. Sandstone is not easy to carve. And there is a temple at the other end of the site with large megalithic blocks. I met a guy there who had forty different articles that he had personally collected. He keeps the artefacts to himself because the museums would put them in the basements.

“If we go to the city itself, there is a site that goes back officially to 2500bc, but probably 10 000 years. We see beautifully designed stone work, a mushroom and a fox like creature. The Olmecs seem to have spread quite far and wide, to Mexico city and beyond.

"Just South of Mexico city in a place called Ek Balam is potentially the oldest pyramids in America's if not the world. Back in 1920 the first dating they did they found it to be 70 000 years old. However dating since then has put it at 800BC to 200BC! This is because of different dating techniques. There is a perfect spiral carved. This is something the European sites like Malta have.

"In Cholula about 40 miles East of Mexico City is the biggest pyramid by far, it is three times bigger than the great pyramid of Giza, twice as big as the Bosnian pyramid and it is absolutely huge. It is well worth a visit. There is a fascinating museum there as well. If you move further east to a place called Monte Carlo, look at these carved stones and huge megaliths. Further east still there is another great temple there where the kids play football. There are many earth sites in Mexico and a fascinating place to visit." HN

The pyramid of Cholula: From Chariots of the Gods by Erik Von Daeniken, Harold Reinl film : “It's base measures 1000 by 1071 feet. In the 16 TH C the Spaniards built a church on top. Systematic excavations have only begun this century. 12 miles of subterranean passages have thus been discovered. Their purpose remains obscure .”

“One of the earliest known pyramids , officially in Central America is The great pyramid in La Venta. On the layout of the site there are particular pavements, they are 28 layers made of serpentine. You are looking at 20 000 tonnes of serpentine. Why would they do that and bury it 20 to 50 feet under the ground? No-one knows this? It is a very strange phenomenon. The earth energies at are of high interest. These were engineers of the highest order. There are some other very interesting Megaliths there.” HN

“The Mayan calendar is based on the cycle of the Pleiades or “Muchuchumil” as they are known by the Maya. The elders say the universe comes from the Pleiades.” Ian Lungold

THE RAINBOW SERPANT From Hugh Newman “ Before the Maya” " Quetzalcoatl arrived on a raft of serpents with a band of followers and was a teacher of vast sciences. He was represented as a mythological being however it is actually an earth energy or current which has lots of different powers associated with it. This was fascinating, he was said to come into this gulf coast area and leave high civilization, agriculture and all other skills. He got pushed out by the god of that area. These myths didn't just exist with the Olmecs, the Aztecs and the Toltec's. Many other cultures of Central America base their principles on the teachings of this time. When Quetzalcoatl was driven out the teachings of these technologies stopped. Quetzalcoatl promises to return at a certain date. Many sites associated with energy points are Quetzalcoatl sites. The entwined serpent (two currents weaving around each other), like Caduceus is always associated with earth energy.” The plumed serpent, the rainbow serpent currents of energy run through the planet. HN

TEOTIHUACAN From Chariots of the Gods by Erik Von Daeniken, Harold Reinl film : “TEOTIHUACAN From Chariots of the Gods by Erik Von Daeniken, Harold Reinl film :

“Teotihuacan a vast expanse of ruins in central America. The name Teotihuacan means where the gods reside . The city of the gods is dominated by the pyramid of the sun . Its base measures 760 by 720 feet and rising to the high of 216 feet it forms a small mountain. A mile to the south of Teotihuacan pyramids is the temple of Quetzalcoatl a great feathered serpent. Legend tells us he was a light skinned bearded man who came from the stars. He taught men law, arts the cultivation of corn and cotton. His symbol is seen everywhere. When Quetzalcoatl finished his mission on earth he returned to the morning star promising to come back to earth again.”

"The famous long count calendar was discovered by Matthew Sterling who was a prominent archaeologist back in the 40's and 50's. Before this was discovered it was thought that Mayans were the original civilization of Central America. This calendar begins in 3113bc and ends in 2012ad. You can see these calendar stones at the museum of Tressa Cossa. The Olmecs invented this calendar. One of the stones of the calendar plates of the Mayan calendar of 2012 is missing so the problem with the long count calendar of the ancient Central Americans is that there are multiple dates that could have been decided from this, from the other part of the stone that has not been found yet. The inscription says there will be a descent of nine gods to the... and it is chipped off. There are nine gods of ancient Egypt and there are 9 gods of ancient Maya as well. Descend to what? Initially it was thought they were descending to the underworld. ”

"Tikal is where the Mayan stone carving that depicts the end of the world originated. This stone depicts five different worlds destroyed by cataclysms according to the Mayans and earlier cultures of the area. Why were they there? They were there marking the star map in 3113bc.” HN

Hugh Newman : second presentation on Earth Energies, Earth Grids and the secret patterns of Gaia's sacred sites.

EARTH GRID From Hugh Newman “ Earth Energies, Earth Grids and the secret patterns of Gaia's sacred sites”

“The ancient were working all over the planet and they seem to have unlocked an interesting earth energy system. There is a globalisation happening in pre historic times. What got me into this subject was interacting with indigo children , psychic children and this opened the door into researching the planetary grid. They said it was not just humans working with the grids but it was off planet beings as well as the dolphins and the whales.

“I would like to dedicate my research and all I am working on to the late great John Michell who was a huge influence to me.

"'A great scientific instrument lies sprawled over the entire surface of the globe. At some period – perhaps over 4000 years ago - almost every corner of the world was visited by a group who came with a particular task to accomplish. With the help of some remarkable power, by which they could cut and raise enormous blocks of stone, these men erected vast astronomical instruments, circles of erect pillars, pyramids, underground tunnels, cyclopean alignments whose course from horizon to horizon was marked by stones, mounds and earthworks.' John Michell 1933 – 2009. View over Atlantis 1969

"The creation myth of the Hopi (goes), they beat on a drum to create energy for the planet which emanated from the naval of the milky way … The great spiderwomen spat into two handfuls of earth and created two brothers. One of them was sound one of them was form. These brothers sat in meditation to link minds. One went to the North Pole where he began to work his magic and the other went to the South Pole, to say prayers. They heard the distant drum of Taiowa, or the creator, to send vibration, life force to the crystal at the centre of the Earth, which created vibrational frequency which popped out of the crystal and went all over the surface of the earth into power spots or sacred centres.

“The ancients did use these earth energies for very interesting purposes to do with agriculture, enhancing seeds and for changes in consciousness. I look at this from a geomancers perspective because I studied dowsing and I work with geomancers. The geomagnetic field gets effected very intensely. The sun effects the magnetic field and creates fluctuations. Teluric currents travelling through the surface of the earth have an electric quality. This is part of the system many of the ancient sites incorporate. A map of the magnetic lines of the planet show the different fluctuations in the magnetic field.

"Viktor Grebennikov's (design) of artificial pyramids, enhances healing effects and increases the growth and yield of seeds. Phillip Callahan found that round towers attracted cosmic energy and drew it into earth. These towers were found in diamagnetic areas. The Magnetic field is affected by the sun. What effect does this have?

“John Burkt the crop circle researcher found that the wheat grew stronger where the crop circle had been. John Burkt realised electro charged signatures came from the earth itself. From John Burkt's book ‘Seed of knowledge, Stone of plenty,' the magnetic variations around a rock chamber in New England are seen. There is a major magnetic anomaly right in the entrance to this megalithic chamber. That was there before and they chose to build the site upon this.

“In Stonehenge they were working with this energy to bring it into the site to use it for many purposes as this type of energy not only effects the body, healing effects but on the mind you have altered states of consciousness, and if you place seeds in these areas they become enhanced and when you plant them you get higher yield and better quality of crop.

"Many sites are harmonic intervals. Processional numbers are encoded. Ancient sites are neutral places with neutral energy. Dolmans are a Lens. There are dolmans all over the planet there are 19 thousand in Korea. There are dolmans around the world. In North America, Wales, Tunisia, Britain, France, Jordan, Japan, China, Middle East, India, they are everywhere and they all have very similar size and design. They trap the energies within them when there are magnetic fluctuations in the earth and this electrical charge has the potential to manifest there. I believe there was an ancient civilization that Graham Hancock talks about and they were travelling the world teaching these things. Megalithic spirals (is an example of) earth energy symbolism across the planet.

“In New York State, balancing rock is one of the largest dolmans I have ever seen. This is a 90 tonne boulder placed on four or five smaller stones. It is situated on a powerful magnetic anomaly.

In the photos Hugh Newman presents of these dolmans and others one can see orbs.

“This has been photographed as well by John Burkt in his research. Orbs are a classic thing when looking at certain sites. These light phenomenon keep on appearing. There are hundreds of megalithic rock chambers in New England. Virtually every chamber I went to I photographed and we got the ball of light phenomenon, the orb. We are finding chambers, dolmans, earth mounds, (there are 5 or 6000 earth mounds in America, particularly the whole Mississippi region right down to Florida) there is electrical charge occurring and this is why you get orbs in these photographs. There are many legends of tribes visiting these sites and placing seeds there at sunrise as a ceremonial offering. When you plant these seeds you get a yield four times greater than what you expect. They grow quicker and are frost resistant so basically this is an ancient technology. There is evidence of this all around the planet. The Lost world pyramid in Tikal for instance, seeds placed on top showed greater growth and yield. We are finding evidence that the older the megalithic construction, the better this technology works.

“This is evident when we look at these great energy currents that run through Southern England. The Michael and Mary Earth energy current was originally a straight line alignment discovered by John Michell in the 1960's and based on all these sites dedicated to St Michael stretching over Southern England. Hamish Miller and Paul Broadhurst, documented in their book ‘The Sun and the Serpent' the dowsing of these lines to find the earth energies present. They found these two massive fluctuations, 10 foot wide, two different energy currents weaving like a caduceus along this ley line. This was a breakthrough book and I thought it must link to a global current. Hamish Miller found the current continuing up in St Petersburg in Russia.” HN

“The Rainbow Serpent Earth chakra map, is a global version of these two great earth energy currents. I went to lake Titicaca in Peru, and in the North part of the island I came across a dolman structure. A huge megalith goes way under the surface. The great energy lines cross at this point. Behind the dolman is a rocky outcrop that looks like a frog. Below its chin offerings have been made. It is an Inca site which they still use. The frog to the Inca was revered as a fertility symbol.

“Another great ley line worked on by John Michell and dowsed by Hamish Miller and Paul Broadhurst is called the Apollo St Michael axis. It all has to do with ancient Greece and the oracle centres, Delos the Donor and Delphi which are all roughly in a line. It has been considered they were built in alignment, that stretched across the landscape. It is actually a 2500 mile long ley line. It goes through hundreds of sites all the way up to the St Michael site in Britain and France and Ireland.

“If we look at Avebury, that sits exactly 1/7th the way around the planet. If you go from the equator to the North pole that is a quadrant of the planet. The ancient city of Thebes in Egypt is 2/7th of that quadrant distance up, from the equator and Avebury is 4/7th of the distance up from the equator. We are not talking roughly, we are talking absolutely precisely to the centre of the sites. We are seeing evidence of ancient surveying. If we draw a line between Giza pyramids in Egypt and New Grains, the largest Megalithic site in Ireland, and then continue the line around the world, that is precisely 1/10th the way around the planet. If you go from Avebury to New Grains, it is precisely 1/100th of the circumference of the planet. This is very accurate surveying.

“Forget the Greenwich Meridian it is an arbitrary thing, political etc. Giza is the ancient prime meridian. All sites East and West of Giza, are in a harmonic pattern around the planet. Graham Hancock, and other authors worked his out. It fits in really neatly with the grid research. It is exactly 30 degrees above the equator as well, so obviously the ancients were working with the equator, and then we have to define a meridian North South as well which is obviously through Giza. Charles Piazzi Smythe who was the Astronomer Royal of Scotland and also an avid Egyptologist, proposed that this should be the prime meridian in the 1880's, because it is the centre of the land mass of the planet. There is more land mass in all directions than you get from any other point in the planet. This suggests that that was one of the reasons it was built there in the first place. Giza alignment is the Prime Meridian. It is the Geoclectic centre of the planet. 31 degrees is the Prehistoric Equator. It is a great circle. South Africa and Giza are in alignment . Is there an interplanetary connection?

“ An image from Graham Hancock's Heavens Mirror shows if you go to Giza as the prime meridian, you find many harmonic numbers going East and West from there. Many sites in Western Guatamalo are exactly 120 degrees West of Giza, which is exactly 1/3rd of the way around the planet. There are very accurate, very harmonic distances between the sites, suggesting that, there was a great survey of the planet. For example from the Bosnian Pyramids to Machu Pichu in Peru is exactly 90 degrees, which is a neat harmonic quarter of a circle. Harmonic Longitudes from Giza (include): Baalbek Lebanon 5 degrees; Angkor Watt 72 degrees; Peru 108 degrees; Bolivia 100 degrees; Easter Island 140 degrees etc. The Hartman and Curry grids show t he earth has a network of energy running on the latitude and longitude .

“A map developed by Buckminster Fuller shows an icosahedral format. He worked with flat renditions of the earth, they are called Dymaxian maps. He did one with a cube octahedron design as well.” HN

From divine cosmos. “ The Grid itself expands and metamorphoses as a result of the higher-frequency planetary cycles ...”

“Shortly after this Ivan Sanderson came up with Vile Vortices. He was one of the breakthrough grid researchers. He did lots of statistical analysis about the Bermuda triangle and other places where there were disappearances, time dilations and other phenomenon, gravity anomalies, etc. After many years of research he wrote an article about the 12 devils triangles around the world. Straight away people noticed his research represented an icosohedron. Straight away we are seeing the energetic effects of geometries within celestial spheres.

“At the same time Ivan T Sanderson was working these three Russian scientists discovered using the same principles with the geographic North and South poles, if they place a dodecahedron, within the earth, they noticed it neatly followed the North Atlantic Ridge. “ The earth was a great crystal growing. An ‘etheric' crystal formed by the ancients. In 1973, three Soviet scientists (Nikolai Goncharov, Vyacheslav Morochov, and Valery Makarov) article, “ Is the Earth a Large Crystal?” was published in a Soviet science magazine. They postulated that "a matrix of cosmic energy" made up of twelve pentagonal plates covers the earth. A dodecahedron has 12 points. All points are in an Icosahedron (20 faces) . The Russian scientists worked with the dodecahedron and placed the icosahedron over the dodecahedron, because they nest within each other these two fundamental geometries. They found loads of things fell into place, the path of migratory animals, the magnetic anomalies, the strange upwellings around the planet, sites of ancient civilization, movements of civilization. This plan was later developed by William Becker and Bethe Hagens, and also echoes what Plato says as well.

'The earth when viewed from above resembles a ball sewn with 12 pieces of skin.' Plato

From crystalinks.com “Plato recognized grids and their patterns, devising a theory that the Earth's basic structure evolved from a simple geometric shapes to more complex ones. These shapes became known as platonic solids: cube (4), tetrahedron (3), octahedron (8), dodecahedron (12), icosahedron (20). In Timeaus, Plato associated each shape with one of the elements, earth, fire, air, ether, and water. The Earth's energy grids, from the beginnings of its evolutionary course, have evolved through each of these shapes to what it is today. Each shape, superimposed, one upon the other to create a kind of all encompassing energy field that is the very basis of Earth holding it all together.”

From montalk.net : “The Becker-Hagens Grid incorporates both the Platonic solids and the hexakis icosahedron to create a grid of 62 points.”

“Bruce Cathie is a brilliant researcher and has written loads of excellent books. He was an airline pilot. He was working in New Zealand for many years, he kept seeing UFO's everywhere. So he started plotting them. After years he came up with a map of all the different siting's. He noted they form a grid, a very neat and tidy grid. UFO flight paths on grid system show how extra-terrestrials use energy from grids to power their crafts. He then came across an antennae off the coast of the Cape Horn in South America, at the bottom of the sea. It was only a few feet tall. He thought this was an ancient alien antennae that had been planted there by ET's. The reason why he thought this was that when he did see UFO siting's he often saw crafts moving in and out of the see. Interesting Ivan Sanderson wrote a book about that as well, an underwater alien civilization. The New Zealand grid he had plotted together with this antennae gave him a revelation. He got his sons soccer ball and drew all over it and came up with a perfect cube octahedron system.” HN

From indigoworld.com “ Bruce Cathie in his book Harmonic 33 wrote that UFO sightings occur in a regular grid pattern of 30 nautical miles apart or 54.46km.”

“The was later developed by William Becker and Bethe Hagens, and they came up with the icoso dodecahedron, but a more stable version with ribs connecting all the different points. It is called a rhombic triacontahedron. It is like an exo-skeleton for the planet. It is a combination of all the different Platonic solids all in one. All this research about dark matter fits in with the grid research. The idea of dark matter is that it is a platform skeleton of the universe and everything evolves and grows within it. I see this as potentially the same thing.” HN

“When you are looking at these kinds of geometries of spherical forms you need to look at cymatics. Hans Jenny was actually a student of Buckminster Fuller. He was vibrating droplets of water and he was coming up with all these brilliant geometries. As the frequency increased, the geometry got more complex. As the frequency increases on the planet, the geometry is getting more complex. There is evidence in ancient times that they were working with these spherical geometries.” HN

(The Schumann Resonance is the Earth's resonance frequency.) Schumann resonance frequencies (in Hz): 7.8 13.7 19.6 25.5 31.4 37.3 43.2

“Keith Critchlow worked with stone spheres. It matches the earth grid precisely.” HN

“Points of the tetrahedron are mapped on earth (and beyond). Richard Hoagland has investigated the tetrahedral model. Placed within the earth, a tetrahedron with vertex at the north pole has the other three points touching 19.47 degrees south of the equator, and an inverted tetrahedron will have base vertices touching 19.47 degrees north.”

19.47 degrees is the angle at which the triangle meets the sphere.

" There is some kind of activity happening at 19.47 degrees. This gives an interesting indication of a potential grid system that happens within all planetary bodies. The intense solar flare activity you get on the sun happens at precisely 19.47 degrees. You can see these energy upwellings through different bodies in the solar system. The Olympus Mons, the largest volcano in the solar system is at 19.74 degrees. On Earth, Hawaii which is a very huge volcanic complex is at 19.47 degrees. Throughout the solar system we have found similar anomalies. We found cloud bands on Neptune, and spots on different planets and basically energy upwelling's keep appearing throughout the solar system at this latitude. And it also happens on the sun. We get increased solar flare activity at 19.47 degrees above and below the equator. To me this is a sign that there is a natural resonating cymatic geometry, throughout nature and throughout the universe, going from the microcosm to the macrocosm. A lot of people link this with MerKaBah.

“There are odd geometries on Uranus's moon, Miranda too, there are hexagonal and pentagonal features naturally appearing on moons. On Saturn there is this great hexagon on the North Pole. The size of that hexagon is the width of two earths. For some reason, it maintains its integrity, it doesn't budge, even though there are massive swirling cloud bands and plasma moving around its North Pole. Somehow some energy system or vibration or possibly cymatic vibration holds that energy in place while everything else moves around it. Iapetus which is one of Saturns moons, all the way around the dead centre of the planet, is a great wall which is 12 miles high and 12 miles wide. No one has any idea how that is formed because it doesn't spin on that particular axis. We find all these anomalies through the solar system. Even on other planets there are energetic grids.” HN
