Before The Egyptians (65 Part Series):
New
tantalizing scientific discoveries suggest ancestors of modern
Egyptians built neither the famous pyramids nor ancient temples
along the Nile, but long-forgotten survivors of a massive global
catastrophe, whose ancestors ushered in what is now known as the
'list of suddenlies' in our human record during an era called the
Neolithic or New Stone Age.
The dynastic pharaohs worshipped Thoth, who was their
god of wisdom. He was the oldest among a pantheon of gods. He
apparently collected all knowledge that was lost and had it
transcribed, which was eventually delivered to the ancient city of
Heliopolis - City of the Sun - by Hathor, another god, who deposited
the documents in the Hall of Records.
Many years later, it was written, Khufu demanded to
be told the contents of the hall and summoned a magi from
Heliopolis, and subsequently the first of the Giza pyramids was
built. However, it is disputed today that those ancient Egyptians
actually built the pyramids, indeed that a far more ancient people
built them over 12,000 years ago.

The Golden Age Of
Pirates: Corsairs, Buccaneers & Privateers (3 hour-long episodes)
This
program investigates the worldwide phenomenon of seafaring Pirates
and the many areas they discovered and charted, the towns they began
and the mysteries of their still sought-after treasure. The "golden
age" of swashbuckling Pirates ran from about 1650 to 1800 and
plundered in virtually every sea on the planet. A Pirate
in-character will host each show, which will also be tied to various
modern "Pirate Festivals" and historical ports around the world
today.
In the
first episode we'll explore the ruthless Corsairs of the Barbary
Coast that sailed from North Africa throughout the Mediterranean,
attacking and enslaving many Christian ships and towns along the
way, as well as their bloodthirsty and celebrated cousins, the
legendary Buccaneers, who both pillaged and settled across the
Atlantic in the Caribbean Islands, while also looking at war-time
Privateers - legal Pirates with Letters Of Marque from their monarch
commanding them to "destroy and pillage all enemies of the Crown" -
roving from the East Coast of Canada to the South Seas of the
Pacific.
Did you
know? Buccaneer is a term that was used in the later 17th century in
the Caribbean Islands. The term Buccaneer comes from the French word
"Boucanier". These Boucaniers originally were hunters who were
poaching cattle and pigs. They would smoke the meat on wooden
frames, "boucans", so that it could be saved for a later time. The
Boucaniers were taught this by the local Arawak tribes from Santo
Domingo, calling the method Barbicoa - which is where the word and
method of Barbecue originated!
Pirates
of the South Seas, sailing the oceans from Madagascar to India and
Australia, mixed many cultures into their way of life, whereas
China's Pirates were a breed unto themselves, both fierce and
resourceful, including many female captains, sailing the uniquely
designed "Junk". In this episode we'll explore the vessels
themselves: the various tall ships that carried these raiders around
the globe and the advances made in seagoing technology that they
developed.
Finally, in the third episode, we'll examine the glorious Pirates'
many weapons, from cannons to cutlasses, as a fight on the high seas
was always a unique event, as were their armaments. We'll also take
a look at "Home Sweet Home" and their culture on land, and visit the
many places that Pirates landed to relax, and refresh supplies and
manpower, that have become some of today's popular tourist spots and
major cities; from Port Royal in Jamaica to Macau in the South China
Sea. We'll wrap up by examining their buried treasure - the gold and
jewels that were taken and the many places they are allegedly hidden
- and the vaunted Pirates' code that kept them secret. |
Ocean
Jumpers (3 Part Mini-Series):
There have been flints found in Texas that are
similar to those found in southern Europe, exciting scientists, and
suggesting a link between the Clovis and Solutrean cultures. These
days there are native American languages that still contain foreign
words, whether Punic, Greek or Hebrew. The "wind-talker" Dene
languages share something in common with those of the fiercely
independent Basques and Chechens today.
Long after the Carthagians and hundreds of years
before the Vikings - or the legendary trips of either Prince Madog
or Prince Henry Sinclair - researchers believe globe-trotting Celts
and inspired and roaming priests, such as St Brendan, successfully
crossed the Atlantic in small boats made of leather and landed on
American shores - discovering "paradise" in the process. Harvard's
Dr Barry Fell spent a lifetime deciphering mysterious inscriptions
carved into rock faces.
The Pacific was crossed many thousands of years ago.
Certainly people needed to cross a deep ocean trench in order to
populate Australia over 40,000 years ago! Thor Heyerdahl found
several levels of masonry under the Easter Island temples and
statues, as well as famously proving the ocean could be crossed on a
raft, a technology he suggested might have been developed by the
ancient inhabitants of South America.

Kennewick Man
Meets Ice Man (One Hour Special):
The
controversial 9,000-year old skeletal remains that were accidentally
discovered in 1996, originally thought to be the bones of a
long-lost American Pioneer and eventually tagged as enigmatic
"Kennewick Man", an ancient traveler who had suffered many injuries
in his abbreviated life, share something in common with those frozen
body of "Ice Man", found high in Alpine glacial ice several years
ago: both bravely traveled great distances and both were survivors,
due likely to medical treatment.
Ice Man is only 5,200 years old however. He carried a
leather back-carriage with bows and arrows, along with an axe and a
repair kit with pieces of rope, bone, rock, and string. The axe had
a shaft of yew and a blade of copper.
Upon close examination, university researchers have
discovered that Ice Man had several "tattoos", marks made by cutting
into the skin, filling the incisions with herbs and burning the
herbs, thereby cauterizing the incisions. The tattoos formed an
ancient acupuncture chart used long before the therapy was developed
in the Far East. The body has 15 groups of simple tattoos upon the
back and legs which tallied with those used in modern acupuncture.
In fact fully 80% of the points correspond to those used in
acupuncture today. |
Stone
Age Star Charts (One Hour Special):
So-called "cavemen", unique peoples living throughout
the recent Ice and Stone Ages and most recently in the Neolithic
period (from 15,000 to 5,000 years ago), were much more intelligent
than the club-wielding thugs we commonly perceive them to be, as our
children are taught in school. They wisely watched the skies and
plotted the movements of stars over time, and built many stone
henges to not only calculate vast distances and the coming seasons
but to also observe potentially life-threatening comets and
asteroids.
A European researcher has interpreted carvings in a
32,500-year-old ivory tablet - from that of a mammoth - as a pattern
of the same stars that we see in the Orion constellation.
The famed Bull paintings found on cave walls in
Lascauz, France, dated to 17,000 years ago, depict stars and
constellations that are visible along the elliptic accurately
arranged, whereas in Spain's Altamira Cave the evidence suggests the
artists were much more ambitious and organized their paintings to
represent the entire visible night sky. These people kept their
calendars accurate by watching the full moon until finally one
midnight it hit a pre-designated spot, and there's no mistaking this
day, it was the summer solstice. |
Abraham
Was A Brahmin, Moses Was A Pharaoh, Jesus Was A Yogi (2 Hour Special):
This
controversial show examines new theories concerning several early
leaders and explores truths surrounding their legendary "biblical"
status, global travels and esteemed place in history today. A recent
archeological find in Kuwait unearthed a gold-plated statue of the
Hindu deity Ganesh, and historical research material today helps
explain the connection between ancient Hindu civilization and
Arabia.
Abraham is recognized by scholars as the patriarch of
the Hebrews, but came from much further East, and is highly touted
in the Koran as Ibrahim; the name of his wife, however, Sarah,
provides another clue: in Indian Sarasvati (sa-ras´wa-tee) refers to
a "wife of Brahma". He was from Ur, a city in ancient Sumer.
In the story of Abraham, at his birth a star moved
from the East and stood over the place of his birth. Zarathustra,
Buddha, Noah and Moses were all born with an aura. This set the
precedent for Jesus. When the magi arrived "according to the
prophecy of Zarathustra," they brought gold, frankincense and myrrh
(symbolizing earthly kingship, spiritual kingship, and early death). |
Black
America (3 Part Mini-Series):
In 1491, blacks owned about one million square miles
of land in the Louisiana Territories and the South Eastern region of
Florida as well as in California. Before Columbus, across all these
lands, there were African-American nations. Their people were
targeted for enslavement due to the Papal Edict giving the Christian
nations of Europe the right to make slaves of all descendants of Ham
found in these newly "discovered" lands.
The belief that the African-Olmecs were a
Pan-Nubian/West African Saharan civilization is believed by many in
Africa and elsewhere today. Olmec helmets are very similar to those
worn by the Nubians and West Africans of ancient times. Both are
made of a combination of leather and metal.
When the Sahara began to dry out, after the Ice Age
began to melt rapidly, the people of West Africa, migrated across
the ocean - these are quite possibly the people who built the
mysterious round balls of Mexico and the giant "Olmec" heads. The
people represented in the faces of these heads may have led a great
dynasty of Black Kings who ruled for more than two thousand years in
Mexico. Their culture and traditions became part of the native
cultures that followed, including the Maya and Aztecs.

Gold
Bracelets & Modern Dinosaurs (One Hour Special):
Evidence
of civilized man who might have existed millions of years ago, in
the form of gold bracelets, were uncovered underneath the mountains
of Western United States following the Gold Rush of the late 19th
century, and in Africa today rumors still persist - notwithstanding
sharks and crocodiles - that descendants of dinosaurs exist and live
free.
Our hosts will explore the many examples in modern
museums of strange animals painted and carved by ancient people
around the world depicting gryphons, dragons and various long-necked
beasts, including those that lurk in cold Scottish lakes. But deep
in the jungles of Gabon, the locals there can still point out a
picture of a Diplodocus without any prior knowledge of dinosaurs, or
the benefit of Jurassic Park.
A gold chain cannot be made with stone tools.
Furthermore, when a gold chain was found nestled in a piece of
American coal in 1891, it suggested the item in question was 260
million years old! There has since been a gold thread found in rock,
and an iron nail embedded in sandstone 380 million years ago. To
make matters most interesting for historians, fossilized bones too
have been found in coal by miners.

The
Jade Trade (One Hour Special):
This show surrounds the enigma of pan-ocean trade
long before the arrival of "modern" sailing Europeans a few hundred
years ago. Olmec jade, dating from approximately 1150 BC, found in
Mexico and depicting an Olmec scribe, is very similar to the scribes
of the Nile, Mesopotamia, India and West Africa. However, long
before Columbus and the Spaniards arrived, the Mayans' jade came
from its Chinese trading partners.
The first complex culture in Mesoamerica may have
come into existence with the help of a group of Chinese who fled
across the seas as refugees at the end of the Shang dynasty, it is a
theory being examined by researchers in America today. The Olmec
civilization arose around 1200 BC, which coincides with the time
when King Wu of Zhou attacked and defeated King Zhou, the last Shang
ruler, bringing his dynasty to a close.
Furthermore, this is evidence in the form of the
written word. Over the past three years, some 150 glyphs on
photographs of and real specimens of Olmec pottery, jade artifacts
and sculptures. As well as himself leafing through dictionaries of
ancient Chinese, he has also taken his drawings of these markings to
be examined by mainland Chinese experts in ancient writing, and most
have agreed that they closely resemble the characters used in
Chinese oracle bone writings and bronze inscriptions. |
Mayan
Time & Jain Ages (One Hour Special):
The
ancient priests' control over kings was apparent through their
mastery of astronomy and mathematics. From India to Mexico, there is
no doubt that past civilizations were involved in incredibly complex
space calculations, mathematics and architectural endeavors. The
Mayans had a sophisticated calendar, losing only one day in 6000
years.
Hindu and Mayan elders recently shared their belief
systems in a conference held in 2005. The premise of the conference
was that the Vedic and Mayan civilizations were in close
communication in the ancient past. Throughout history, both Vedic
and Mayan traditions faced declines due to internal failures and
external onslaughts by other later civilizations. Both cultures were
challenged in the survival of traditions and propagation of their
ancestral wisdom for generations. The conference started with a
Mayan yagna (fire worship). The similarity between the Hindu
purification rite and the procedures and ingredients of the Mayan
yagna astounded everyone.
New information pushes back the date of Mayan writing
to some time between 300 to 200 B.C, around the time the Mauryan
empire was in the full bloom in India. |
Pyramids Around The World
(One Hour Special):
Great circles are straight lines that go all the way
around the center of the earth. Easter Island, Nazca, Ollantaytambo,
Paratoari, Tassili n'Ajjer and Giza are all aligned on a single
great circle. Additional ancient sites that are located within one
tenth of one degree of this great circle include Petra; Persepolis;
Khajuraho; Pyay, Sukothai and Anatom Island.
Near Ollantaytambo, Machupicchu and Cuzco are within
one quarter of a degree. The Oracle at Siwa in the western Egyptian
desert is within one quarter of a degree. In the Indus Valley,
Mohenjo Daro and Ganweriwala are within one quarter of a degree. The
ancient Sumerian city of Ur and Angkor temples in Cambodia and
Thailand are within one degree of the great circle. The Angkor
temple at Preah Vihear is within one quarter of a degree.
This circle crosses over the source and the mouth of
the Amazon, the dividing line between upper and lower Egypt, the
mouth of the Tigris-Euphrates, the Indus River and the Bay of Bengal
near the mouth of the Ganges. The circle also crosses over a number
of areas of the world that are largely unexplored, including the
Sahara Desert, the Brazilian Rainforest, the highlands of New
Guinea, and underwater areas of the North Atlantic Ocean, the South
Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. |
