Everyone! This is the most exciting news I’ve heard in years! My godmother Lily, a reincarnationist who believes as I do that we both lived in ancient Egypt, was the first to send me this news. She wrote, “Great news from the old neighborhood!”

What secrets we will learn as they excavate these ruins?

Egyptologist Dr. Sarah Parcak is our new hero.

Egyptian Pyramids Found By Infra-Red Satellite Images

By Frances Cronin BBC News

Seventeen lost pyramids are among the buildings identified in a new satellite survey of Egypt.

More than 1,000 tombs and 3,000 ancient settlements were also revealed by looking at infra-red images which show up underground buildings.

Initial excavations have already confirmed some of the findings, including two suspected pyramids.

The work has been pioneered at the University of Alabama at Birmingham by US Egyptologist Dr Sarah Parcak.

The recent discovery of a very early seafaring society on Crete rocks the scientific establishment, and we have some questions: Does this discovery imply that prehumans possessed technology? Is it possible that modern humans are much, much older than we thought?

The tools found at the site could be as much as 700,000 years old! Atlantis anyone?

There is still so much to be learned…

On Crete, New Evidence of Very Ancient Mariners

By JOHN NOBLE WILFORD

Early humans, possibly even prehuman ancestors, appear to have been going to sea much longer than anyone had ever suspected.

That is the startling implication of discoveries made the last two summers on the Greek island of Crete. Stone tools found there, archaeologists say, are at least 130,000 years old, which is considered strong evidence for the earliest known seafaring in the Mediterranean and cause for rethinking the maritime capabilities of prehuman cultures.

Crete has been an island for more than five million years, meaning that the toolmakers must have arrived by boat. So this seems to push the history of Mediterranean voyaging back more than 100,000 years, specialists in Stone Age archaeology say. Previous artifact discoveries had shown people reaching Cyprus, a few other Greek islands and possibly Sardinia no earlier than 10,000 to 12,000 years ago.
