This article talks about the most mysterious ancient civilizations of the past, which left us many still unsolved mysteries. But first, let’s briefly understand what the word “civilization” actually means.

Civilization (from Latin civilis - civil, state). In a general sense, civilization is a stage of social development and material culture characteristic of a particular socio-political formation. There is a more detailed definition of civilization:

1) general philosophical meaning - a social form of movement of matter, ensuring its stability and ability for self-development through self-regulation of exchange with the environment (human civilization on the scale of the cosmic device);

2) historiosophical meaning - a concept denoting the unity of the historical process and the totality of material, technical and spiritual achievements of mankind during this process (human civilization in the history of the Earth);

3) the stage of the world historical process associated with the achievement of a certain level of sociality;

4) society localized in time and space. Local civilizations are integral systems, representing a complex of economic, political, social and spiritual subsystems and developing according to the laws of vital cycles.

Lemuria or Mu

Many researchers believe that 80 thousand years ago, an ancient civilization, the first on Earth, arose on the giant continent of Lemuria. It existed for a long 50 thousand years. The cause of her death was destructive earthquakes caused by the displacement of the earth's pole, which just happened 26 thousand years ago. It is believed that the Mu civilization did not achieve such high knowledge in the field of technology as later ones, but the peoples of Lemuria were able to master the construction of huge stone buildings that could withstand earthquakes. It was construction technology that was the greatest achievement of the Mu civilization. Probably, then the whole Earth had a single language and government. It was education that allowed the state to flourish, because all citizens knew the laws of the Earth and the Universe. Already at the age of 21, a person acquired basic knowledge, and became a full-fledged citizen by the age of 28.

Ancient Atlantis

A long time ago, the continent of Mu, under the influence of cataclysms, plunged into the ocean, the formation of the Pacific Ocean occurred, and the water level in other parts of the Earth decreased. As a result, the small islands of the Atlantic grew noticeably in size. The Poseidonis archipelago has turned into a small continent. Later historians forgot its true name, calling it Atlantis. It is believed that that civilization surpassed even the modern one in its level of technology. Tibetan philosophers dictated the book “The Earthly Return of the Dweller” to the young American Frederick Oliver in 1884, which mentions such inventions as electric rifles, air conditioners that purify the air from harmful fumes, fluorescent lamps, vacuum lamps, and monorail transport. Water generators, mechanisms for obtaining water from the atmosphere, aircraft controlled by anti-gravity forces. And the clairvoyant Edgar Cayce mentioned that airplanes were used in Atlantis and there were crystals. Helping you get a huge amount of energy. Casey also talked about how the Atlanteans misused their power. This led to the death of the ancient civilization.

Indian Empire of Rama

Fortunately for us, the ancient works of the Indian empire of Rama have been preserved, while many documents of the Indians, Egyptians and Chinese have been lost. Today, most of the empire is located at the bottom of the ocean, while the rest has disappeared into the impenetrable jungle. However, India, despite the devastation of war, was able to preserve a significant part of its ancient history. Scientists believe that civilization formed here around 500 BC, two centuries before the invasion of Alexander the Great. But not so long ago, on the territory of modern Pakistan, in the Indus Valley, the remains of the cities of Harappa and Mozhenjo-Daro were discovered. This discovery allowed scientists to doubt previous conclusions and postpone the emergence of civilization thousands of years ago. Researchers noted the high organization of cities and their brilliant planning. The sewer systems of the ancient Indians were so developed that not all Asian cities can compete with them.

Mediterranean civilization of Osiris

At the time when Atlantis and Harappa existed, there was a large fertile valley in the basin of what is now the Mediterranean Sea. The civilization that existed there became the ancestor of Ancient Egypt with its dynasties. It was called the Civilization of Osiris. In those days, the Nile flowed completely differently and it was called Styx. The river did not flow into the Mediterranean Sea in northern Egypt, but turned west, forming a huge lake in the area of ​​​​the current center of the sea. From there the river flowed in the area between Malta and Sicily and flowed into the Atlantic near Gibraltar (then Pillars of Hercules). With the destruction of Atlantis, the waters of the ocean slowly flooded the entire basin, drowning the cities of the Osirians and forcing them to relocate. It is this theory that explains how megalithic remains ended up at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea. Archaeologists do not hide the fact that there are more than two hundred sunken cities at the bottom of the sea. The Egyptian civilization, like the Minoan, located on Crete, like the Mycenaean, Greek, are traces of a single ancient Osirian culture. That civilization was able to build megalithic structures that could withstand earthquakes. As in Atlantis, the local people used electricity, airships and other means of transportation using electricity. The Maltese Mystery Routes, found underwater, may be part of an ancient transport route for Mediterranean civilization. The best example of its technology can be considered an amazing platform found in Baalbek, Lebanon. Its main part consists of large hewn rock blocks, each weighing from 1200 to 1500 tons. Scientists believe that this work has not yet been completed.

Uyghur civilization

Many ancient cities were once located in what is now the Gobi Desert during the time of Atlantis. Now there is only sun-scorched land here and it’s hard to believe that the ocean once splashed here and life was seething. No significant traces of civilization have yet been found. But there are many references to vimanas (ancient flying machines) in this area, as well as other technical devices. The famous researcher Nicholas Roerich spoke about observations of certain flying disks just in the region of northern Tibet in the 30s. Many believe that the elders of Lemuria transferred part of their culture, even before the cataclysm that destroyed their civilization, to the then uninhabited plateau in Central Asia. Now here is the mysterious Tibet. It was then that the elders founded a school called the Great White Brotherhood. The great Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu, before his death, went to the legendary land of Hsi Wang Mu, which may have been the possession of the mysterious White Brotherhood.

Tiahuanaco

Like the Mu civilization and Atlantis in South America, construction was also carried out on a megalithic scale with the construction of earthquake-resistant buildings. Although public and residential buildings were built from ordinary stone, an unusual polygonal technology was used. As a result, the buildings still stand today. The ancient capital of Peru, the city of Cusco, is a fairly populated city even today, although it was built before the Incas, thousands of years ago. In the business part of the city, most of the buildings are still united by walls that were laid out centuries ago. Relatively young buildings built by the Spaniards are already being destroyed, while ancient structures stand. Several hundred kilometers to the south separate Cusco from the fantastic ruins of Puma Punka, located high in the Bolivian altiplano. From here it is not far to Tiahuanaco, a huge megalithic place where 100-ton blocks are scattered everywhere by an unknown force. Once upon a time, South America suffered a tremendous cataclysm caused by a pole shift. The former oceanic ridge now lies nearly 4 kilometers high in the Andes. This version is indirectly confirmed by many oceanic fossils around Lake Titicaca.

Mayan civilization

Surprisingly, the Mayan pyramids found in Central America have their twin counterparts on the Indonesian island of Java. On the slopes of Mount Lawu near Surakarta in the central part of the island there is an amazing temple with a step pyramid and a stone stele, which, it seems, should have been found in South America. After all, such a pyramid is actually identical to those that were found in Vashaktun, near Tikal. The Mayan civilization could boast of its achievements in the fields of mathematics and astronomy; the cities of these ancients existed in harmony with nature. On the Yucatan Peninsula, the Mayans built their garden cities and canals. The aforementioned Edgar Cayce said that records of the knowledge of the Mayans and other ancient civilizations are stored in three places on the planet. First of all, in Atlantis, whose temples may still be discovered under centuries-old bottom sediments, for example, in the Bimini area off the coast of Florida. The second part is found in Egyptian temple records, and the last part is in America, on the Yucatan Peninsula. Somewhere there is an ancient recording hall, which could be located anywhere, for example in an underground chamber under one of the pyramids. Some researchers claim that the vault contains quartz crystals that are capable of storing large amounts of information, similar to modern compact discs.

Ancient China

This civilization is also known as China Han Shui. It originated from the vast Pacific continent of Mu. Ancient Chinese records contain descriptions of celestial chariots and jade production, which the Mayans also had. And the ancient languages ​​of these peoples are very similar. Scholars have noted the strong mutual influence of South America and China, both in trade and in symbolism, mythology and linguistics. The ancient Chinese are credited with amazing discoveries - rockets, earthquake detectors, printing and even toilet paper. In the mid-20th century, archaeologists discovered aluminum bands created several thousand years ago using electricity.

Ancient Israel and Ethiopia

The Ethiopian book Kebra Negast, like the ancient texts of the Bible, tells about the high technologies of this civilization. Thus, the temple in Jerusalem was located on three giant blocks of cut stone, similar to those found in Baalbek. Nowadays, on the site of the Temple of Solomon there is a Muslim mosque, but its foundations are rooted in the civilization of Osiris. The Temple of Solomon itself was an example of megalithic construction; the Ark of the Covenant was kept here. It is believed that it was an ancient electrical generator that killed those who carelessly touched it. The ark itself, as well as the golden statue, were once taken by Moses from the King's Chamber in the Great Pyramid during the Exodus.

Kingdom of the Sun in the Pacific

After the continent of Mu sank into the ocean due to pole shifts, the islands of land in the Pacific Ocean were inhabited by the races of China, India, America and Africa. On the islands of Micronesia, Polynesia and Melanesia, the Aroe civilization formed, which left behind megalithic platforms, statues, roads and pyramids. Thus, in New Caledonia, cement columns were found that are from 7 to 13 thousand years old! On Easter Island, the statues were arranged in a clockwise spiral around the island, and on the island of Pohnpei there once existed a huge stone city. Today, the Polynesian peoples of Tahiti, New Zealand, Hawaii and Easter believe that their ancestors were able to move freely between islands and even fly.
