Valley of the Kings, Egypt. Taj Mahal, Agra. India. Tomb of King Pakal, Palenque, Mexico. These names are known to everyone. But less "popular" grandiose burial complexes are found throughout the world for thousands of years. According to traditional scholars, these complexes are the resting place of ancient rulers. But could they have a more serious, possibly extraterrestrial purpose?
So why were so many magnificent tombs built in antiquity?
North of Peru. 1987 year. Archaeologist Walter Alva discovered the so-called tomb of the "Ruler of Sipan". This tomb (intact and with no signs of looting) is considered one of the richest tombs in the world. The "Ruler of Sipana" was one of the kings of the Moche culture, who ruled over Lombayek, the coastal region of Peru. Gold, silver, fabrics, jewelry and other items were found in the tomb. Peruvian archaeologists sometimes call it the "South American Tomb of Tutankhamun." The objects found in this tomb were very unusual. The burial chamber contained many items: pottery, utensils made of gold, silver and copper, as well as feather ornaments. Some researchers believe that they were supposed to accompany and guard the "Ruler of Sipan" in another world. Some archaeologists suggest that some of his servants,wives and associates were deliberately killed, and their bodies were placed in a tomb to accompany him to another world, which is very reminiscent of ancient Egyptian rituals.
As we can see, the "Ruler of Sipan" was not buried alone, but together with other people. Making a logical conclusion and taking into account the fact that something similar was done in other cultures, we understand that these people believed that the afterlife was a completely physical place. They believed that he would need these assistants there. They believed that he might want to see his relatives and closest advisers there again. Among the amazing treasures lying next to the "Ruler of Sipan" were unusual figurines, which some researchers consider to be proof of the existence of aliens: in addition to servants and various objects, unusual anthropomorphic figurines were found there, similar, according to some, to extraterrestrial beings. These are creatures with large bulging eyes, unlike ordinary people …
So, in Sipan there is a tomb in which, it turns out, aliens, anthropomorphic creatures, half animals, half people are represented. These creatures do not look like ordinary people, but like "classic" aliens. In the tomb of the "Ruler of Sipan" there are several interesting objects that cannot be correlated with the things that existed in "earthly" use at that time. Perhaps these creatures, along with their artifacts, helped a person on the way to another world, for example, back to space or to heaven. The followers of the theory of the "Ruler of Sipan" believe that he was not a mere mortal, but a half-man - a demigod.
Most interestingly, he has a gold mask on his face, and his body is mostly protected by copper armor. Thus, we see a person whose dead body should resemble something else - a shining being, a divine being, as he once was and will be after death, as it is believed, once again became such a being. Is it possible that the figurines found in the tomb really represent the alien origins of this ancient ruler? And if so, is it possible that this tomb, like the tomb in Egypt, is indeed a star portal? Adherents of such a theory answer this question, of course, in the affirmative. They believe that proof of this can be found by studying the boat-shaped coffins and unusual burial rituals of the ancient representatives of the Toraja tribe.

South of the island of Sulawesi. Indonesia. Here are the burial caves of Tana Toraja, a site where complex burial rituals take place dating back to around 3000 BC. Torajis believe that death is a gradual advancement towards another world. Many cultures believe in an afterlife, in the fact that after the death of the body, something continues to exist. Toraji, the inhabitants of Indonesia, are very interesting and unusual in this regard, since most of the rituals they conduct are devoted not to life, but to death. They have amazing rituals: when someone dies, they have a lavish meal and a sumptuous celebration in honor of the deceased. The people of the Toraja tribe put their dead in coffins of an unusual shape, resembling a model of a spaceship. Then they bring them into the caves. They believe that in the end the dead return to the stars, and that they, now living,also return to the stars.
The word "Toraja" in translation means "upper people". The Toraja believe that their ancestors came from the stars in "sky ships." Their decorated coffins are made in the shape of a boat, which is believed to resemble the "sky ships" on which their ancestors arrived on Earth. A wooden doll called a tau-tau is carved in the shape of a dead person and displayed at the entrance to represent the deceased and guard his remains. These dolls are a beautiful illustration, with the help of which they want to show that when a person dies, he can still look at people from above, because the fact of death does not mean that everything is over. The death of a person means that he moves to the next stage of existence and this idea is present not only in this culture, but also in all ancient civilizations and even in modern society. The people of the Toraja tribe believe in gods who descended from heaven,left behind a certain knowledge, and then disappeared. They sincerely believe that by doing what their ancestors did when these beings were here, they, too, will be able to join these divine beings who once arrived here, and, therefore, after death they will be able to reunite with them, already at the place of these gods.
These beliefs are no different from those that exist elsewhere. Is it possible, as some researchers believe, that ancient aliens who visited Earth several thousand years ago inspired our ancestors to create coffins in the form of boats, reminiscent of their spaceships? And if so, could the presence of these boat-shaped coffins prove that our ancestors were preparing to travel to the stars? Some believe that undisputed proof lies in a mysterious burial site in Ireland, where Star Charts point not only to where ancient aliens came from, but also to places where the dead should want to return.
Oldcastle. Ireland. Among the ruins of a Stone Age cemetery is a 5,000-year-old tomb with a diameter of about 35 meters. It is named after the legendary king - the poet Ollam Fodl. In the tomb of Ollam Fodl, the connection between Earth and Heaven is visible. Some people think that this is an observatory. But it is logical to assume that this was a temple, a place of worship that linked the Earth to Heaven. Some scholars say the astronomical symbols carved into the stone walls may have been made by extraterrestrial beings.
Ollam Fodla contains an unusually accurate astronomical map. It remains only to wonder how the ancient people created it without having any knowledge of astronomy. However, according to local legends, they received some help: they were provided with knowledge on this topic by none other than shining beings who descended from heaven.
Ollam Fodl's tomb contains unique and strange star maps. One has to wonder if these are maps pointing alien guests back home to the stars. Could aliens, as some scientists claim, have taught our ancestors the art of building what is called a "celestial observatory"? And if so, could this cemetery serve as a kind of "waiting area", a place where aliens observed, predicted the movement of celestial bodies, preparing their return to the stars? Perhaps the answer to these questions can be found by studying ancient burial structures in Japan.
Sakai. Japan. Here, in a city located 400 km south-west of Tokyo, there is Daisen-kofun, one of forty ancient burial complexes that lie within a 10 km radius. This structure, which is twice the length of the Cheops pyramid, is one of the largest tombs in the world. It was created in the 5th century AD and is considered the resting place of Nintoku, the 16th emperor of Japan. Of all the structures that make up the tomb, or kofun, the most enigmatic is the one whose shape resembles a keyhole. However, this shape can only be determined by looking from above. The fact that they are made in the shape of a keyhole, and that this can only be seen from above, is a clear indication of the Gods saying, "Look here." It was a kind of appeal to the stars from those in the tomb. May be,Are these tombs intended for the alien gods to find their way back to the stars from which they came?
Shaanxi Province. China
In 1974, peasants digging a well near the city of Xi'an found something amazing - a carefully sculpted clay statue of a life-size soldier in combat gear. During the excavations that began, thousands of such statues were discovered, called the Terracotta Army. Each of the soldiers had amazingly realistic facial expressions. Having stood in the ground for over two thousand years, these statues were part of a gigantic mausoleum built for the first Chinese emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Shi Huang. Qin Shi Huang's Tomb is an extraordinary structure. More than 8000 terracotta soldiers, 520 horses and 130 war chariots were found there. Most of them are still in the ground.
Qin Shi Huang Ti was the first emperor of China: he created the Qin Dynasty in 221 BC. Many of the social institutions he founded continued to function throughout the era of the rule of emperors in China. Qin Shi Huandi conquered and unified China, built the Great Wall of China and established a unified monetary standard and legal system for China. In addition, he was obsessed with the idea of finding the secret of eternal life. This emperor was looking for islands with immortality. He also obsessively searched for lost knowledge. During his lifetime he strove to become equal to the gods …
Over the course of 30 years, Qin Shi Huang ordered more than 700,000 workers to build a four-level underground city that would become his resting place. At the center of this ancient complex lies China's greatest mystery. The tomb itself occupies a very large area, and only a few areas adjacent to it have been excavated. Archaeologists believe that under this central mound is a chamber containing the remains of the emperor. The entire complex has not yet been excavated due to the high content of mercury in it, which is life-threatening. It is believed that inside is an accurate model of the universe in miniature. The ceiling serves as the sky, and the pearls represent the stars. On the floor of the chamber are the rivers of China, and instead of water, mercury flows in these rivers, which is used in measuring instruments, electronics and cars (mercury is a liquid metal). Archaeologists have discovered mercury in Egypt in a tomb from 1500 BC!
Some researchers believe that the presence of mercury there indicates the existence of a technology similar to the modern one in the ancient world. The presence of mercury in these tombs is unusual. Mercury by itself is not the most useful substance for humans, used only in high-tech devices. It may have been present in a technique used by aliens on this planet. Was the first emperor of China influenced by extraterrestrial visitors to build this monument? Could the mercury found in the tomb be evidence of alien technology in China thousands of years ago, designed not only to use it to bury the dead, but also to send aliens back into space? Perhaps new data will be found during a careful study of the mysterious burial mounds,scattered all over the world.
Kenju. South Korea
Here, not far from the coast of the Sea of Japan, lie the ruins of Cheonmachong, the tomb of the "Heavenly Horse". They were discovered in 1973, and scholars believe that this mound-shaped tomb was built in the 5th century for a king from the Silla Dynasty, which ruled Korea for about a thousand years. The main attraction of this tomb is the so-called "heavenly horse" and therefore it is often called the tomb of the "heavenly horse". This horse has eight legs engulfed in flames. It is clear that this is not a real, naturally occurring horse. Rather, he seems to be a hybrid of a horse and a dragon flying through the air. Perhaps he symbolizes the journey of the soul, or he carries the soul into the afterlife. Most historians claim that the image of this horse indicates not only the important role of the horse in the culture of Ancient Korea, but also the king's faith in the world of spirits. The adepts of the theory of "ancient aliens" have another deeper interpretation. They believe that the image of a winged horse shows how a deceased nobleman is transported to another distant world.
The inhabitants of Tibet and the Mongols also have similar legends about winged horses, and these horses, obviously, are a kind of analogue of vimanas described in Sanskrit, flying machines, "Chariots of God" about which Erich von Daniken spoke. They are often depicted as this horse, a common means of transportation for people of that era. Only these horses could fly: they were flying machines. Looking closely at him, we will see that he looks like a dragon, since fire emanates from his legs, and the legs themselves do not really resemble legs. They are more like some kind of wings. It must be remembered that the ancient people did not know spaceships, and therefore what they saw in the heavens was best described as a horse with eight legs that came down from heaven. Is it possible to,that the so-called "Heavenly Horse" of Cheonmachong really symbolizes the metal apparatus of aliens, as the adherents of the field contact theory believe? And if so, does this prove the theory that ancient tombs were actually portals to other, alien worlds? Perhaps new information can be found by studying the mysterious drawings in another burial mound, located 8000 km from there.
Boyne Valley
Ireland. Here, 50 km north of Dublin, is Newgrange, an ancient burial mound dating back to 3200 BC, very similar to the mound found in South Korea. Among all the ancient burial mounds found in the area, it is the best preserved. Newgrange was one of the largest man-made structures at the time of its construction. He is 5,000 years old, and maybe more and, thus, he is older than the pyramid of Cheops. This is a grandiose structure, created by a highly developed culture, once they were able to build it.
The inner corridor of Newgrange is built with amazing precision: its structure allows for accurate calculations of the solar year. It is oriented on the day of the Winter Solstice in such a way that on the day of the Winter Solstice, and only on this day, the sun's rays pass directly through the corridor to the tomb itself and illuminate its inner chamber. The inner chamber is covered with mysterious megalithic symbols, the meaning of which is still unclear. They confirm the amazing level of development of this culture. We do not know what exactly this mound meant to the ancient people, but we can imagine how a festival was held here on the day of the Winter Solstice, and the priests and priestesses entered the inner chamber of the tomb to observe this annually repeated miracle. The winter solstice symbolizes mainly the death of the sun. On this day, the sun is at its lowest point above the horizon, and then a new birth and new life begins. What better explains the meaning of the tomb and the idea of traveling to another world than death, the subsequent resurrection and the renewal of the cycle?
Is it possible that Newgrange's celestial orientation was conceived as a symbol of the journey to the afterlife, as some adherents of the theory of alien intervention believe? We use the term "spiral galaxy" all the time. The question arises as to whether some of these spirals are somehow related to intergalactic travel. In accordance with what we know about the beliefs of the Newgrange builders, and mainly about their beliefs regarding the travel of the dead, we understand that this is about space travel.
When considering the famous burial mounds scattered around the world, these mounds are round in shape, their very shape suggests flying saucers or UFOs, and structures in the form of a spiral were often used as symbols of time travel, and this is how aliens, probably, and fell to Earth. Can hundreds of burial mounds that exist on Earth communicate with each other through some kind of extraterrestrial communication? And if so, is it possible that aliens used these mounds as portals for intergalactic travel, as proponents of the theory of paleocontact suggest? Perhaps these unreal (at first glance) ideas are not as difficult to imagine as they seem, especially when you consider that similar phenomena occur in our time in the southwestern region of North America.
Sierra County. State of New Mexico
2010 year. Three, two, one, start! Celestis Incorporated Airlines is one of the first private space flights, providing new and unique funeral services. This company sends the ashes of the dead into space. Among them, the creator of the series "Star Trek" Gene Roddenberry, the symbol of the 60s Timothy Leary and even the astronaut Gordon Cooper, a member of the NASA "Mercury" program. Celestis rents cameras on conventional rockets that launch satellites and other objects into Earth's orbit. They take seven grams of ash and launch them into space in miniature containers. This is an incredible achievement, since at the moment we have the opportunity to send the ashes of the dead into space. It is worth asking if this is a recreation of the ancient idea of using boats or some other symbols,with the help of which kings and pharaohs were prepared to return to heaven.
But why do people want to send their deceased into space? Is this the embodiment of a person's unconscious desire to return to the stars after death? Is it possible to connect this in some way with the existence for hundreds of years of people's faith in paradise, in a utopian world located somewhere far away, outside our world? It is interesting that this happens precisely with those people who had some kind of foresight, who wanted to lead mankind into space, lead him in search of discoveries, in order to try to find out if there are other living creatures there. It is interesting that in the future we will have to meet with this more and more often, and we will become closer to the way of thinking of our ancestors. Perhaps someday people will be able to send a whole body into space in order to restore connection with our ancestors. We are made of stellar material, and the entire universe is made of stardust. Therefore, it is only natural that some people want their ashes sent back into space. In the ancient world, people considered themselves immortal souls, who for a short time found themselves in a human body. Perhaps these reincarnations happen over and over again. It was believed that some part of the personality continues to exist outside the physical world and the tomb, in a sense, is the immortal home for this part of the human personality.is the immortal home for this part of the person's personality.is the immortal home for this part of the person's personality.
Is it possible, as some researchers believe, that humans have long been trying to contact their extraterrestrial sources? And if so, could ancient tombs that exist around the world have been built to make it easier to travel into space, even after death? It is difficult to say what our ancestors thought, looking at the night sky: maybe they felt their insignificance next to his greatness, maybe they thought about what the stars in the sky are. Perhaps that is why they had a mythology about gods, goddesses and other creatures living in the heavenly world above us. Perhaps that is why many of their ancient temples are oriented to heavenly bodies.
