Adam's Calendar

01/01/2015 7:55 PM

Recently I've run across 'Adam's Calendar', a South African stone calendar discovered by a pilot, and also more than 100,000 Kraals and terraces that predate the great flood. These piles of Hornfels, by their sheer numbers, indicate there must have been a population of millions in this area that predate the Egyptians and Summarians, by thousands of years. The puzzle of the Kraals, beyond their numbers, is their lack of openings, they must have been for something other than 'cattle pens'. From an engineering standpoint, what might have been their use?

100,000 + of them, loose, not mortared rock pieces...check them out....Michael Tellinger has been working on these things for the last couple of years....Google Earth shows the extent across South Africa, past archeological info pens, native houses, these things estimated maybe 200,000 years old. My thought was 'crop circles' except for the vast extent, the sheer numbers, each one made of 100's of 1000's of 20-80lb rocks of the same type carried a fair distance and stacked maybe 10' high x4'thick x200' dia. for the larger. No entrance, even on the smaller ones.

The stone work extends from the 'calendar' across the valleys to the far mountains you see in the background. The huts and girls have nothing to do with the stonework.

If you look carefully I think the walls run close together for entrance and exit....narrow passageways are easier to defend....I've seen these so narrow you had to turn sideways to get through....no doubt these have collapsed over the years making it appear as a solid wall....this is typical construction of a fort made of stone in the old days...You need the calender to make dates with the girls, plan weddings, raids etc.....

Trust me, that is definitely not a good representation of a 'native' girl in SA.

The weird spellings and capitalizations are typical of persons who gullibly use words as voodoo or pseudoscience rather than bona fide communication.

As I have never heard of this before, I did a Google search for information about it. Unfortunately, all I could find were links to various pseudoscience and mystical (Ancient aliens, Atlantis, and the like) internet publications. Nowhere could I find references to any creditable scientific research on this site, in particular, the dating claims. All references lead back to a Michael Tellinger.

Tellinger questions the lack of research on these relics, both on the part of government and archaeologists which seems to be lacking, also on the part of posters here.(if it's not conventional, it's bullshit) Tellinger's videos postulate and question, something I was taught years ago. One of the things that was mentioned in a video was a possible link to the work done by Ed Leedskalnin at 'Coral Castle' in Florida, which is an amazing bit of construction by an individual which is difficult to explain in conventional mechanics.

Unfortunately, Gerald, the scientific method does not begin with the rhetorical question. Every one of the ancient aliens guys like to start out by postulating their conclusion, then asking a series of repeating rhetorical questions. That IMHO just is not how science operates. It might make for "good" TV, but it ain't science.

Now I heard today from a friend of mine about a story involving a hammer head (of steel) embedded in a lump of coal recovered from an underground mine. Please postulate how that got there, and ask the rhetorical question. "were there miners here before the coal was formed?" What were they mining? How did they get here? etc. ad nauseum.

Another story had to do with a "fossilized boot print" dated to 3 million years ago, dated by the inclusion of a seed pod of that epoch. The boot print included a distinct heel of the boot, and the sole.

I have been wondering where my old work boots got off to.

Re: Adam's Calendar

That may be so, but the discussion is about a massive number of stone structures across South Africa, indicating a great number of people, or maybe they were stacked by giant ants. These structures have only been numbered and flown over at low level since 2008, and other than Tellinger, there seems to be little interest.....what would you attribute that to? My conclusion is that archaeologists for the last 100 year have told us that SA was sparsely populated and it does not agree with the 'history' we've been taught by people at the various 'learning institutions'. People who learned from books and institutions who just regurgitate. Another thing........Oh, f**k it, "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink."........reminds me of "You can lead a whore to culture, but you can't make her think" ( a story I was told in high school)

Granted that no one is denying the structures exist, and that to challenge the academic paradigm is usually the only way science really advances, why mess it up with not following the "accepted" scientific method. The scientific method tests the question, and does not just sit there asking 20 or a hundred questions, but attempts to answer each question in turn. Sometimes attempting to answer question #1 definitely leads to (a lot more) questions to answer. Sometimes not.

I have my suspicions about reporting that only asks questions, but does not offer up real confirmable facts about the age of anything. I also have my suspicions about college professors sitting back smoking their pipes and never getting out into the field to observe anything. How do they know the "science" works, if they never put it to the test?

"Another story had to do with a "fossilized boot print" dated to 3 million years ago, dated by the inclusion of a seed pod of that epoch. The boot print included a distinct heel of the boot, and the sole." This just show that the 3 million years story is a story. All dates more than 6000 years ago is a lie. Everything was created 6000 years ago. Time, space, light, the earth, us human, everything was created in 6 days 6000 years ago.

,And another 'regurgitation' of some 'piss poor' interpretation by someone who reads 1 book that 'someone' claims is 'fact'. You believe 'facts' that some English King gathered? I point out interesting sites that need to be investigated, and you spout belief in tales that have led the deaths of many, even today. You need to research where those 'beliefs' come from. You are placing your 'faith' at the hands of people as ignorant and stupid as you.

Please , to enlighten ; is it possible for someone ("OP?") to explain in some detail, with no ambiguity, no heresay, no 'assumptive language'... just absolute incontrovertible facts:

"...predate the great flood"...(?)

Precisely how did they plan to date these structures? By what method? I understand that due to hyenas and the top predator cats of Africa, not to mention other mega fauna, who would not want a really thick and high wall around the ranchette?

Adams Calendar:

When the age of something is mentioned, why do we see dates exceeding 6000 years? Nothing can be older than 6000 years.
