The Origin Of Constellations

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

With this publication the author will reveal a fascinating prehistoric system of orientation that has existed over thousands of years, a system that has constantly been visible but could no longer be identified or decoded. Sir Isaac Newton himself was the first scientist who attempted to solve this mystery. However, it wasn't until the beginning of the 21st century that the German geographer and artscientist, Kai-Helge Wirth finally fullfilled Sir Isaac's quest. Wirth assembled all available sources about the origins of the star constellations in his work „Chronologia“ and examined texts by Appolonius, Exodus and others in great detail. Newton reached the following conclusion: the star constellations were not a natural phenomenon, visible to anyone, who gazes at the sky – but, rather designs, created by seafarers, as an aid in orientation. Chiron, the teacher of the Argonauts drew up a map of the 48 constellations as we know them today. After that it was Musaios, helmsman (navigator) of the seagoing ship ARGO, who transferred Chiron's constellations to a 3-D globe. This is identical with Isaac Newton's discoveries. The images of the star maps add up to a concrete map of the world and, the constellations are shaped and arranged to represent the world's currents in minute detail. Neighboring images show neighboring currents. This opens surprising insight into the wide range of prehistoric knowledge and the communication horizon of ancient mankind.

A Mythological Approach To Exploring The Origins Of Chinese Civilization

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Is the lion the symbol of China? Or should it be the dragon or the phoenix? This book makes a provocative interpretation of the Chinese ancient totems such as the bear and the owl. Taking a mythological approach, it explores the origin of Chinese civilization using the quadruple evidence method, which integrates ancient and unearthed literature, oral transmission, and archeological objects and graphs. It testifies to the authenticity of unresolved ancient myths and legends from the origins of Chinese Jade Ware (6200BC-5400 BC) to the names of the Yellow Emperor (2698–2598 BC) and the legends from the Xia (2010BC-1600BC), Shang (1600BC-046BC), Zhou (1046BC-771BC), and Qin (221BC-206BC) Dynasties. The book lays the foundation for a reconstruction of Chinese Mythistory. With well over 200 photographs of historic artifacts, the book appeals to both researchers and general readers.

Tracking The Great Bear

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Encompassing millions of hectares of globally rare coastal rainforest, the Great Bear Rainforest in coastal British Columbia is home to ancient trees, rich runs of salmon, and abundant species. The area also supports small human communities, particularly First Nations. Once slated for clearcut logging, large areas were protected in 2006 by the signing of one of the world's most innovative conservation agreements. This book provides a detailed account of the complex and contested process that resulted in the establishment of the GBR. It also shows how environmentalists' deployment of a powerful actor-network saved the area from status quo industrial forestry while still respecting First Nations' right to economic development.
