Strange Rumors of Ancient Artifacts (Part 1)

Area 51 The Revealing Truth of Ufos, Secret Aircraft, Cover-Ups & Conspiracies

In 2011, a weird and controversial story surfaced that linked Area 51 to none other than the Spear of Destiny of biblical legend. The revelation was made in a short-lived TV series on the SyFy Channel called Legend Quest. Is it possible that Area 51 really is the home of the spear? Do government agencies have a secret interest in the mysteries of the distant past? We’ll come back to the story of the Spear of Destiny and Legend Quest shortly, but let’s first see what we can confirm in relation to government secrecy and archaeological enigmas.

Any mention of secret government interest in such issues as UFOs and alien visitations invariably provokes imagery relative to such things as the Roswell UFO crash of 1947 and tales of cosmic conspiracies coming out of Area 51. It is, however, a little-known fact that U.S. government agencies have taken a great deal of interest in the UFO-themed mysteries of not just recent history but of the distant past, too, particularly those with a connection to the issue of ancient extraterrestrials.

Of keen interest to the government since at least the 1950s is the riddle that surrounds the means by which the pyramids of Egypt—as well as numerous other ancient structures—were built. Of even greater interest to officialdom is the theory that those same structures were built via levitation technology.

It is a fact that when we examine the stories and legends of how the ancients managed to move and manipulate gigantic, multi-ton stones, we find that levitation appears to play a significant role in the saga. In the 900s, for example, a Baghdad-born writer named Abu al-Hasan Ali al-Mas‘udi described how stories had reached him, suggesting that the pyramids of Egypt were built in decidedly unconventional fashion. According to al-Mas‘udi, the massive blocks would almost magically rise into the air when tapped by a mysterious metal pole.

Depending on how the stones were struck, they could be made to travel horizontally or vertically with virtually no manpower needed at all. This ties in with stories coming out of the ancient Americas, as researcher Richard Mooney noted: “There is a tradition that appears in the mythology of the Americas that the priests ‘made the stones light,’ so that they were moved easily.” Mooney added that this was directly connected to “the legend of levitation,” which he described as an “actual technique or device, long since forgotten.”

A similar story surrounds the construction of the city of Troy. We are told that “the God of Music seated himself nearby and played such inspiring tunes that the stones moved into place of their own accord.” We are also told that the Greek city of Thebes was built in near-identical fashion: Amphion, the son of Zeus, reportedly plucked a lyre to effortlessly raise the huge stones of the city.

Then is the Mayan city of Uxmal. Now largely in ruins, it is said to have been built around 500 C.E. by a mysterious race of dwarves that had the ability to move gigantic stones by whistling at them. Rather intriguingly, Stonehenge has a similar story attached to it. It is the story of the Giants’ Dance, in which the mighty stone pillars are moved by music.

Of course, we should not take these stories literally in terms of lyres, whistles, and music. They do, however, all have one thing in common: they tell of the moving of massive stones via sound. This is acutely similar to something that today is very much in its infancy but which the U.S. government has secretly investigated for decades. It is called acoustic levitation.

Researchers Marie Jones and Larry Flaxman describe acoustic levitation as “two opposing sound frequencies with interfering sound waves, thus creating a resonant zone that allows the levitation to occur. Theoretically, to move a levitating object, simply change or alter the two sound waves and tweak accordingly.”
