Previous part: Wars for the planet Earth. Part two
In the myths, tales and legends of ancient peoples, there are numerous references to unusual phenomena and striking evidence of the presence of aliens on our planet.
The Chinese book Tao Te Ching tells about the initial deeds of Huang Di, the son of heaven, who has four eyes and looks like a fish, who flew on a talking dragon with wings and a mustache. In his fleet of vehicles there were "flying turtles", "mountain carts", including the "stone basket":
… Strong but extremely light, it floats freely in the wind over the sands.
The newcomers used various technical devices: translucent mirrors for communication, tripods of unknown purpose with boilers partially filled with water, as well as other devices for performing works incomprehensible to the ancient author. Perhaps the alien starship crashed on Earth, and a few years later Shao-Hao flew after them on another ship:
A huge star, like a ladle, sank onto the blooming island.
Here is another excerpt from the same book:
Huang-di, having mined copper on Shoushan Mountain, cast a tripod near Jingshan Mountain. As soon as the tripod was ready, a dragon with a mustache hanging down came down from above behind Huang Di. Huang di climbed the dragon; all his assistants and family members followed him. There were more than seventy people who ascended. The rest of the subjects could not get on the dragon and in a crowd they grabbed his mustache. The whiskers broke off and they hit the ground.

Having flown away, the aliens left robots on our planet, one of them was called by the Chinese Chi Yu. hands, but most importantly, Chi Yu could fly. He ate sand and stones, sometimes he also used "iron stones". When the robot ceased to function, its head was separated from the body and buried separately from the body. This burial, where hot steam was beating out of the ground for a long time, was a place of worship for the ancient Chinese.
In The Purple Jasper (Chinese narrative prose of the 1st – 4th centuries), the chroniclers reported:
… Lü Gong, nicknamed Wen-ching, together with a servant and a maid, were looking for healing remedies between the ridges. Suddenly he noticed three people in the gorge. Addressing Lui, they said: "We are immortal celestials from the chambers of Great Purity and Great Harmony … If you follow us, the secret of immortality will be revealed to you." Following this, Lu, along with the celestials, disappeared for 2 days. They taught him a secret spell. Then, releasing Liu, they said: "You, venerable, spent 2 days with us, but 2 years have passed in the human world." Lü Gong returned, but saw an empty dwelling. None of the sons and grandchildren remained …
In one of the books describing the rule of the Yar-Lun dynasty of Tibetan kings, there is a mention of the "heavenly kings":
As day, they came to Earth.
They went to heaven like night.
They disappeared like a rainbow
Leaving no tombs.
These were the seven heavenly kings.
Perhaps we are talking about aliens who once visited our planet.
The African Dogon tribe has ancient, inexplicably accurate knowledge about the Sirius system, data about which astronomers received only at the end of the 19th century. The Dogons considered this star to be triple: the main component was called Sigitolo, and its satellites were Po tolo and Emme yatolo.
The Po star is white, "like a grain of Po" (a kind of millet). In Dogon sanctuaries, it is symbolized by a very white stone. The period of circulation of Po tolo around Sigi tolo is 50 years (current data: 49.9 years). This star is small in size with enormous weight and density:
She is the smallest and heaviest of all the stars.
According to the views of the Dogons, all things in the world are composed of four basic elements - earth, water, air and fire.
But in their descriptions of the star Po, instead of earth, metal is mentioned, and especially often called "sagal":
… More brilliant than iron, and so heavy that all earthly beings, united, could not lift even particles.
Emme yatolo, the second satellite of Sigi Tolo, is unknown to modern astronomy, although over the past decades, astronomers from different countries have repeatedly suggested the existence of another star in the Sirius system. According to the ideas of the Dogons, Emme ya tolo is somewhat larger than Po tolo, and 4 times lighter; this star revolves around Sigi tolo along a longer trajectory than Po, and the orbital period is the same 50 years. Perhaps Emme ya tolo is a planet orbiting Sirius. Where did the Dogon tribe have such extensive knowledge in astronomy is unknown.
The Universe, according to the Dogon, is inhabited by various living beings. Among them are "horned, tailed, winged, crawling people."
In the legends of this tribe, information about the visit of our planet by aliens has been preserved:
The fox descended in the ark from the Poe star.
"Pale Fox" Yurugu personifies drought, darkness, disorder and is the opposite of moisture, light, order in the person of Nommo, who also descended from the sky. The Dogon represented the Nommo as a half-human, half-snake with flexible limbs without joints, red eyes and a forked tongue. Together with Nommo, the ancestors of the people arrived. The ark of aliens landed after eight years of "swinging" in the sky, raising a cloud of dust with an air vortex, and those who arrived in it saw the sunrise of our star for the first time:
The people who, during the descent and at the moment of the impact upon landing, saw the shine of the Sigi tolo [earlier], were now present at the first sunrise.
It is noteworthy that the image of a half-man-half-snake is on the Sumerian cylindrical seal, where the god Enki warns the Sumerians about the upcoming Flood.
An ancient water clock is depicted next to it, which should count down time to the upcoming disaster. For the remaining time, the Sumerians had to build a large ark and escape from destruction. Some representatives of the human race who survived the Flood, including Noah, were warned of the impending cataclysm by the gods (aliens).
According to the American astronaut Edgar Mitchell, the famous Dead Sea Scrolls, which were discovered in limestone caves near the coast, mention the visit of our planet by "heavenly people" possessing immortality and leaving many descendants on earth. Mitchell refers to the "Zadokite Document" which reads:
Heavenly people came with stubbornness in souls and fell, because they did not fulfill the commandments of God. The same happened to their sons, tall as Lebanese cedars and strong as mountain ranges. They all fell.
In ancient chronicles and biblical texts, there are numerous descriptions of UFO flights and even the principle of operation and their design. In the Mahabharata, Ramayana and Bhagavata Purana, there are often references to the flying carts of the gods:
A wonderfully shining chariot.
As if she had cut through the clouds, she filled the whole sky with radiance;
Its roar, like the roar of a huge cloud, Filled in all cardinal points.
The gods arrived, each in his own flying cart.
Indra, the lord of Heaven, arrived in his special
flying cart, Which could accommodate 33 deities.
He entered the divine palace of Indra
And I saw thousands of flying carts lying motionless, For the gods …
The mighty [Arjuna] entered the beloved capital
Shakras.
There he saw chariots driven by thought
gods;
Thousands of them stood and hundreds rode around in all
directions.
This villain has arrived
On an all-pervading self-propelled flying cart
Known as Saubhapura.
Evaparikara Vasu, spacious aerial flying
a machine, Will come to you, and you, the only mortal, You will sit on it like a deity.
In the ancient Indian epic "Ramayana" Rama's air travel is described as follows:
When morning came, Rama sat in the celestial chariot that Pushpaka had sent him with Vivpisanda and prepared to fly. This chariot moved by itself. It was large and beautifully painted. It had two floors with many rooms and windows. When the chariot made its way through the air, it made a single tone. At the command of Rama, this beautiful chariot rose into the air with a loud noise.
Other characteristic features of chariots are cited in legends:
[during takeoff] roars like a lion …
… a crash filled all four sides of the horizon.
[shone] like fire on a summer night. like a comet in the sky …
… blazed like red fire …
The whole sky was lit up as she flew over it.
[She] was like a guiding light moving through space. shining like gold …
All the features of ancient "chariots" are observed in modern UFOs.
The Sanskrit text "Ghatotrachabadma" reads:
It was a huge and terrible air chariot, made of iron. She was provided with fixtures in the right places. Neither horses nor elephants carried her. She was driven by devices that were the size of elephants.
Other Sanskrit texts say:
By means of these devices, the inhabitants of the Earth can rise into the air, and the heavenly inhabitants can descend to the Earth.
With the help of these devices it was possible to move within the "Suryamandala" (solar system) and "Nakshatramandala" (in the star systems).
Guru Jinpoche, the first spiritual mentor of the Tibetans, known in Sanskrit as Padma Samvhava, also traveled in a "wonderful tent", the description of which is surprisingly consistent with modern UFOs:
… he closed himself in his wonderful tent and slowly ascended into the sky; in a few moments, the light surrounding him paved a luminous path among the clouds and melted into the sky.
The Egyptian "Pyramid Texts" discovered by Professor RO Volkner in Heliopolis, dating from the end of the 3rd millennium BC. e., contain information about flying vehicles called "king", or "that which flies and shines":
The king is a flame moving faster than the wind to the limit of the sky
and the end of the earth.
The king travels through the air and crosses the earth.
Oh my father, great King, the opening of the heavenly window
open to you.
Sit on your iron throne, like the Great One, that in Heliopolis.
Fly to heaven on your iron throne.
The Nga-ti-hau tribe (New Zealand) has preserved legends about the heavenly god Rongamai. The deity appeared during the siege of the village of Nga-ti-hau by another tribe, the intervention of the god put the enemies to flight:
He appeared like a shining star, like a fiery flame, like the sun. The earth shook, clouds of dust obscured our vision, a noise like a thunderclap, and then like a noise in a seashell, rolled.
In the distant past, Australian aborigines observed an unusual phenomenon, similar to a rocket taking off:
Approaching the edge of the valley, they saw their comrade on the other side, by the river. They shouted for him to stop, but he ignored him and kept walking until he came to a large white eucalyptus. Here he fell dead, and next to him people saw a black creature with two huge fiery eyes. It lifted the dead man up a tree and threw it into the hollow [hatch]. While hurrying through the valley, the people heard such a deafening clap of thunder that, amazed, fell to the ground. When they got up, they were surprised to see that a giant eucalyptus was uprooted from the ground and sweeping through the air towards the south side of the sky. They noticed fiery eyes sparkling from the tree. Finally, the tree came to a stop near Warrambuk [Milky Way], which leads to where the heavenly gods live. Gradually the tree disappeared from sight, and only four sparkling fiery eyes saw people.
In the legends of the North American Indians there is such a description of an extraordinary object:
A large wheel came from the sky. Dazzling flames blazed around its edges, and stars sparkled on its shield. It sat on the top of the shaman's mountain, and the sound of many winds was heard. People from the village fled in panic. Then, with the speed of a frightened bird, the wheel flew away, and no one has seen it since. People returned to the empty tepe [mountain] and laid out stones in the shape of a circle.
A peculiar instruction for making a vimaana is found in the ancient Indian manuscript "Samarangana Sutradshara":
The body must be strong and durable: made of lightweight material, like a large flying bird. Inside, place a container with mercury and an iron heating device under it. Through the force that lurks in mercury and which sets in motion the carrying vortex, a person inside this chariot can fly a great distance across the sky in the most amazing way. Four sturdy containers for mercury should be placed inside. When they are heated with controlled fire from iron fixtures, the chariot will develop the power of thunder thanks to mercury. And turn into a pearl in the sky.
One of the most detailed descriptions of the alien aircraft belongs to the prophet Ezekiel, it is very similar to the structure of a helicopter with four propeller-driven modules:
And it happened in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, when I was among the settlers at the river Chebar, the heavens opened … And I saw: and now a stormy wind was coming from the north, a great cloud and swirling fire, and radiance around it … And from the middle of it one could see the likeness of four animals - and such was their appearance: their appearance was like that of a man.
And each has four faces, and each of them has four wings [screws];
And their legs were straight legs, and the soles of their feet were like the foot of a calf's foot, and sparkled like shiny brass [landing supports].
And I looked at the animals - and, behold, on the ground beside these animals, one wheel in front of their four faces.
The type of wheels and their arrangement are like the type of topaz, and the similarity for all four is one; and from their appearance and their constitution it seemed as if the wheels were in a wheel.
When they walked, they walked on their four sides; did not turn around during the procession.
And their rims - they were high and terrible; all four had their rims full of eyes [portholes] around them.
And when the animals walked, the wheels walked beside them; and when the animals rose from the ground, the wheels also rose …
And … I heard the sound of their wings, like the sound of many waters, like the voice of the Almighty, a loud sound. and when they stopped, they lowered their wings [propellers]."
Aeronautics and Space Administration engineer Joseph F. Blumrich was involved in the development of the Saturn V launch vehicle that carried American astronauts to the moon. According to the "description" of Ezekiel, he recreated this aircraft, which, probably, could fly if the propeller-engine module was located (for stability) above its center of mass, as in modern helicopters.
Prophet Zechariah also describes in his book an unusual flying object:
… I raised my eyes and saw: here was a scroll flying … Its length is 20 cubits, and its width is 10 cubits [10 x 5 meters]. He [the Angel who spoke to the prophet] told me: "This is a curse that emanates on the face of the whole earth" …
(Zech. 5: 1-3)
The last words of the angel, addressed to Zechariah, are a rather unpleasant reminder to all of humanity about the threat of the invasion of some alien civilizations on our planet:
… and he will destroy him, and his wood, and his stones.
In the same chapter of the book of the prophet Zechariah there is a description of another aircraft:
And the angel who spoke to me came out, And he said to me: Lift up your eyes still
And see what this comes out?"
When I said, "What is this?"
He replied, "This comes out an ephah," and said:
"This is their image throughout the earth."
And now a piece of lead rose, and there
One woman was sitting in the middle of the ephah.
And he said, "This woman is wickedness itself,"
And he threw her into the middle of the ephah, And a piece of lead was thrown over the hole.
… and they lifted up the ephah and carried it between earth and heaven.
(Zech. 5, 5-9)
Translated from Hebrew, the word "ephah" means "refuge" (cap), the lead piece is probably the aircraft hatch. It is not known why the Angel called the female pilot dishonest, but, probably, the earthlings did not expect anything good from the aliens.
Various historical and biblical sources repeatedly mention the flights of people on alien aircraft. On the clay tablets of the library of the Assyrian king Ashurbanipal there is a story about the flight of the hero Etana over the Earth. Such a description could only be made by a person who actually observed our planet from a great height. After a kind of "repair" of the aircraft (eagle) Etana flew to the Upper Sky: [8]
Early in the morning, when the rays of Shamash barely illuminated the Earth, Etana put a bag for the grass of birth on his shoulder in order to take it more from the Upper Heaven, sat astride an eagle, pressed his chest against his back, took his mighty wings, and they flew over the square, over the roofs of houses of the city of Kish, above the land of Sumer, above the rivers, mountains and the sea.
- Look down, is the Earth far away? Shouted the eagle.
The king lowered his head, and she spun from an unprecedented height. An empty bag hit him on the back, the wind ruffled his hair, and constantly covered his eyes, but the king could not straighten his bag or hair, because he held tightly to the wings of the eagle with his hands.
- Rivers are like threads, and people are like specks of dust! Etana shouted. - High Sky soon?
“Still far away,” the eagle replied, and flapped its wings more strongly.
They have been flying for a long time. Etana tried not to look at the Earth; he pressed his chest against the back of the eagle and thought about one thing: not to fall down.
- And now how do you see the Earth? The eagle asked again.
Etana looked, and he felt so scared that he could not answer right away. No other person in the world has ever been at such a monstrous height.
- The earth is like a watermelon, and the great sea on it is like several bowls, and you cannot see either an animal or a person! He shouted as he mastered his fear. - Now is the upper sky soon?
- Long away! - answered the eagle and flapped its wings even faster.
Again they flew in the heavenly heights, and there was not a single bird next to them - only Shamash above them.
- What does the Earth look like now? The eagle asked. - What do you see?
Etana looked, and the Earth is like an apple somewhere below. And all around the air abyss.
At that moment, the brave king, the lord of Kish Etana, was no more. A frightened old man was sitting on the mighty bird, trembling with horror.
- Well? What do you see there? Shouted the eagle.
“I… I don’t know how to answer you. The earth is like an apple, and you can see neither mountains nor seas.
- At last! From here only the road to the Upper Heaven begins.
- But when, when will we arrive at it?
- I do not know. The old eagles told me, and they were told in their childhood by other old eagles, that first the Earth should become like an apple, and then a long way to the Upper Heaven begins.
- But I can't fly any further! - shouted the frightened king. - Eagle, do you hear, I'm scared! Eagle, I realized that this path is not for humans! Turn back! O great Shamash!
Etana screamed, and his fear, weakness in his body began to infect the eagle.
- Eagle, turn back! I don’t want higher! I don't need grass from the Upper Heaven!
And the eagle obeyed, turned from Shamash to the Earth, but its wings were no longer working so powerfully, and they were shaking with a small disgusting tremor.
- What have you done, old man! What have you done to me! The eagle shouted.
And together, tumbling in a formless heap, they flew to Earth. Somewhere in a foreign country, they crashed on a stone hill, and strangers buried them.
In the 4th Book of Kings, the episode of the ascension in the chariot of fire of the prophet Elijah is described:
As they walked [to Bet-El with Elisha] and talked on the road, suddenly a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared, and separated them both, and Elijah rushed to heaven.
Enoch also traveled to heaven several times:
On the first day of the first month of 365, I was alone in my house and rested in bed and slept. And there appeared to me two husbands of very tall stature, such as I had never seen on Earth; and their faces shone like the sun, and their eyes were like burning lamps, and a flame came out of their mouth. Their clothes looked like fluff, their feet were purple. Their wings were brighter than gold; their hands were whiter than snow.
The strangers explained to Enoch:
The Eternal Lord has sent us to you, and now, today you will ascend to Heaven.
After saying goodbye to his family, the angels rushed him on their wings to the glowing cloud:
The clouds invited me, and the fog called me; the movement of stars and lightning hurried and accelerated me; the winds in that vision made me fly up and lifted me up and carried me to Heaven.
Upon arrival in heaven, Enoch found himself in the "House of Fire":
A blazing fire surrounded its walls, and its main entrances blazed with fire. And I went into that house, and it was hot as fire and cold as ice. There was a second house, even larger than before, and the entire entrance was open in front of me, and it was built of flaming fire. And I looked into it and saw a majestic throne: it looked like a crystal, and its wheels were like the radiance of the sun, and the Cherubim was visible there. And from under the throne there were streams of fiery flame - such that I could not look at it.
The Book of Jubilees says that Enoch was taken to heaven:
… And stayed with the angels of the Lord for six jubilees years, and they showed him everything that exists on Earth and in Heaven.
The Book of the Secrets of Enoch mentions:
And Vretil taught me 30 days and 30 nights, and his mouth did not stop speaking. And for 30 days and 30 nights I did not stop writing comments.
After training, Enoch was returned to Earth, where he tried to transfer his knowledge to people. During such a "lecture", darkness descended upon the crowd listening to him, and the angels again carried the patriarch to heaven. There is an amazing detail in the account of Enoch's wanderings: when he returned to Earth, he found that he was younger than his children. This is possible only if Enoch moved at a speed close to the speed of light, and for him time passed much slower than for his offspring.
Numerous rock paintings and petroglyphs are carved on the rocks of the Armenian Highlands in the region of the Geghama ridge (Bolshoy and Maly Peitasar, Sheikhi-Chingil mountains), on the Sevasar mountain of the Vardenis ridge. Experts attribute them to the V-III millennia BC. e. (detailed descriptions can be found in the works of the Institute of History and Ethnography of Armenia). A whole gallery of drawings is located on the slopes of the Zengezur ridge at an altitude of 2200 to 3500 meters above sea level, its length is about 12 kilometers.
Some images very much resemble a typical disc-shaped flying saucer, others illustrate a cross-section of a UFO. At the same time, the ancient drawings on the rocks and descriptions of the design of these aircraft, made by our contemporaries, are identical - a double hemispherical body, a flat base, retractable supports, the absence of any conventional engines and power sources known to mankind. Next to some schematic images of flying vehicles, a silhouette of a bezoar mountain goat is carved, which the ancient Armenians identified with the manifestation of the elemental forces of nature: lightning, thunder, lightning and flashes of light. Perhaps this is how the ancient artists wanted to depict the effects produced by UFOs.
The multi-turn spiral next to the humanoid figures symbolizes space. The wavy lines emanating from the men can be interpreted as a means of communication. One of the drawings depicts an "astronaut" in open space, who is tied with a rope to his ship. A snake and a mountain argali (a symbol of lightning) are often drawn next to the figures of people; an antenna of the "wave channel" type is distinguishable on the head of the latter. There are also unknown creatures on the cave paintings - clearly aliens. The headless figures match surprisingly well the descriptions of tall aliens with a slight bulge instead of a head, who landed from a UFO in a park in the city of Voronezh, about which there is ample evidence.
The French scientist Aimé Michel, who studied ancient petroglyphs in the caves of France and Italy, made a thematic selection of unusual drawings that closely resemble modern UFO images. Such objects are observed by most of the eyewitnesses in our time.
There are also mysterious drawings on the rocks near Lake Onega, where "balloons" with rays radiating from them are depicted. I personally observed similar UFOs in the city of Perm (1979) and the city of Snezhinsk (April 24, 1999) at night. The object in both cases looked like a blue-white ball flying silently below the clouds. Six rays emanated from it, very reminiscent of the shock waves that arise around a body flying in the atmosphere at supersonic speed.
In various historical sources, there are references to the appearance of unusual objects that ufologists would undoubtedly classify as UFOs. Below are just some of the evidences of the mysterious phenomena in the sky that our ancestors observed even before Christ:
1479-1426 BC e.
In the twenty-second year, in the third month of winter, at 6 o'clock in the afternoon, the scribes of the House of Life saw a moving circle of fire in the sky … One kind [about 45 meters] was his body, and one kind was wide, and it was silent. They prostrated themselves [and] reported to Pharaoh. His Majesty. thought about what had happened. After a few days, these objects in the heavens became numerous. They shone brighter than the sun and extended to the borders of the sky. These fiery circles were powerful. And Pharaoh, together with the army, looked at them. By evening, the circles of fire rose higher and moved towards the south. Volatile matter fell from the sky. This has not happened since the foundation of the Earth. And Pharaoh gave incense to the gods. and ordered to record the incident in the annals of the House of Life (Papyrus during the reign of Thutmose III, XV century BC, Egyptian department of the Vatican Museum).
500-428 BC e.
The philosopher Anaxagoras described a brightly luminous object the size of a log that hung motionless in the sky for several days.
329 BC e.
Two luminous "silver shields" swooped down on the army of Alexander the Great while crossing the river in India.
322 BC e.
During the siege of Tire by the troops of Alexander the Great, five round shields flew around the city and destroyed its walls and towers with rays of light, which contributed to the capture of the impregnable city.
222 BC e.
When Gnaeus Domitius and Guy Fannius were consuls, three moons appeared in the sky at once (Pliny. Natural history, book. II).
218 BC e.
In the area of Amiterno many times unknown people in white robes appeared. In Praenest - flaming lamps from heaven. In Arpi - a shield in the sky. The moons fought the sun, and two moons appeared in the middle of the night. Transparent ships were visible in the sky (Libya. History, book 21).
216 BC e.
In Apori, east of Rome, a round shield was seen in the sky (Libya. History, Book 21).
214 BC e.
In Adria, an altar appeared in the sky and something resembling a human figure, near it (Libya. History, Book 21).
213 BC e.
In Ariminium and other parts of Italy, light flashed like daylight at night, and three moons were also visible (Dio Cassius. Roman history, vol. 2).
175 BC e.
Three Suns shone at the same time. At night, several stars crossed the sky over Lanuvium (Julius Obsequens, Book of Miraculous Apparitions, ch. 42).
91 BC e.
Around Spoletium, a golden-colored fireball rolled down from the sky, constantly increasing in size. Then he, gaining height, moved to the east. The globe was larger than the Sun (Julius Obsequens, Book of Miraculous Phenomena, ch. 145).
73 BC e.
The opponents were about to come together, when suddenly, quite suddenly, the sky opened up and a large fiery body appeared, which was rushing down into the gap between the two armies; it looked more like a barrel in appearance, and more like molten silver in color. The opponents, frightened by the sign, dispersed without a fight. This happened. in Phrygia, near a place called Otria (Plutarch. "Life", about the intervention of a luminous object in the upcoming battle between the troops of Lucullus and Mithridates).
66 BC e.
At the consulate of Gnaeus Octavius and Gaius Suetonius, a spark was seen falling from the star. When it fell, it increased in size and, having reached the size of the Moon, scattered into something like a light cloud, and then, turning into a torch, returned to the sky. This is the only record of such a phenomenon. It was observed by the proconsul Silenus and his retinue … (Pliny. History, pr. II).
1 BC e.
And behold, the star that they saw in the east walked in front of them, and finally came and stopped over the place where the Child was (the Gospel of Matthew, about the maneuvers of the star that the inhabitants of Bethlehem and the wise men observed during the birth of Jesus Christ).
1 BC e.
In our era, beams of light were observed more than once in the sky on bright days, which crossed the sky from east to west or vice versa. This class includes the objects described by Posidonius: pillars and shields enveloped in flames, as well as other luminous objects. These lights appear in the sky not only at night, but also during the day, and are neither stars nor parts of celestial bodies (Seneca. Questions of naturalism).
