The white race, especially the Nordic strain, have pigmentation that is suited to lower ultraviolet radiatin levels than those found on much of this planet. Their eyes and hair pigmentation also reflect this. The only regions of the world that are still reasonably tenable for such a lightly pigmented race ae Northern Europe, northern U.S.A., Canada and Northern Asia. However, even those areas are now rapidly becoming hazardous to whites due to depeletion of the ozone layer.
Maybe our hypotehetical settlers on Mars were segregated for a long enough time to adapt to its planetary enviironment and distance from the sun, juast as we speculated earlier may have happened with the settlers upon the earth? This could have meant a midway adaptation of skin pigmentation to suit the sun's radiation as it affected ars. Being some 88 million kilometres further from the sun than the earth, solar radiatins would have been less, and a lesser amouunt of melanin would have been need to safeguard the skins of the the Martian groups. Therefore, as the Earth colonists become dark brown to black, the Martians became a light golden brown color, while those who still remained on the homeworld, Astrida, kept their orginal pallid hue.
ANOTHER SCENERIO
However, lets consider further the two principal ways in which our theoretical Astridians may have come to occupy ars and Earth, and perhaps decided which would appear the more likely. Firstly, we postulated the possible destruction of Astrida by a rogue meteor or planetoid, and that, if the inhabitants were sufficiently technologically advanced, they would have had a reasonable amount of warning and time to make escape, plans for a substantiasl proportion of their people, and their flora, and fauna. Given the technological 'know how' to effect such an escape - where would they have made their escape to? ars, or Earth - or perhaps both? According to those scientists who have studied the astreroid belt and believe it to actually be the reamains of a shattered planet, the size of the original planet, calculated roughly from the visible debris of asgteroids that comprise gthe belt, might have been close to the size of our own earth, or mayube even a little larger.
We contemplate the possibility of Mars having been colonized already, with a burgeoning, self relaint replubic that might have been at political odds or even at war with their home planet. If such were the case, and they were refused admittance by the artian colonists, the only place they could go to would be Earth. What if the Earth, too, had already been colonized by those ex-transportees we considered, who'd orginally pioneered ars? How would they accept the sudden influx of a larger number of Astridians and all their animals? Would they have been able to resist such an invasion, or had they perhaps let their own technology and civilization to deteriote as tehy struggled to cope with the saveage young planet's environment and wildlife?
It's obviously impossible to be certain what may have happened, or what state of civilization or technological develoopment could have been reach by the now -negroid inhabitants of planet Earth. They might have taken pity on their effete and pallid refugee cousins, and permitted them to inhabit the less hospitable regions of the Earth, in exchange for goods and technology. Perhaps we should be charitable and imagine that they did?
It's conceivable that Earth might have encountered its own lesser cataclysms in the interim, and had already begun to develop infant polar icecaps and the beginnings of continental drift. By now, a change in climate might have killed off the bulk of the giant saurians, and allowed mammals to become more abundant- or conceivable, the Astridian refuigees may have brought many of their own mammalian animal species with them from their doomed plant? This could explain the sudden emergencyu of mammals at this juncture. The permutations and possibilities of such a great scenario are legion, and some where amid these theoretical alternatives the real truth might lie waiting to be discovered.
In his book, FOOTPRINTS OF THE GODS, Graham Hancock suggests that the likelidhood of there having been a super civilization of technologically advanced peioople, living on an ice-free Antartic continent - the poles then being located elsewhere- thousands of years before any of the recognized great empires of antiquity, like Egypt or Babylon, were even dreamt As I've mentioned before, he discusses those enormous Olmec stone carvings of negroid heads found in the jungle of Central America, which were clearly objects of veneation many centuries before the Mayans and Aztec built their empires. The Mayans are said to have claimed to have gained their knowledge of science and astronomy from 'a very ancient and mysterious civilization' which existed at least fifteen thousand BC and possibly a great deal earlier! Could the people of the Astroid Planet have exchanged technology with teh already seeded dark race on Earth?
Scott-Elliot mentions how the continent of Leumuria began to break up and sink into the ocean bed - apart, that is, from that single portion which extended into the North Atlantic. Two large adjacent pieces of this peninsula still remained after the rest of Leumuria had vanished and these became the so called continent of Atlantis. These became the home of the first sub - race of the Fourth Root Race, known as the Atlanteans, who according to the book, later became the forerunners of teh Cro-Magnon white race that occupied Europe and Northern Asia! Next came the Tlavatlis, who occupied an Atlantean colony that is now called Mexico. The third sub race were the Toltecs, who brought Atlantis into its Golden Age which lasted for 100,000 years.
THE SEMITES - SORCERERS
Thus Scott- Elliot's story takes a very interesting turn, and develops in a now familiar fashion, relating the demise of the two joint islands whiich the larger portion of Atlantis, Daitya, which prior to its submergence, was occupied by another sub race of Atlanteans, who were sorcerers, and were called the Semites. Just before Daitya sank under the waves, a large group of these Semites moved into Central Asia, where they then evolved into the Aryans, the fift root race, to which we now reportly belong to.
Apart from domesticating lepard like animals and developing the banana plant, they wre also gret alchemist and manufactured rare and precious metals in vast amounts. Their scientists invented gas bombs, atomic devices, and they also created aircraft which were propelled by the so called 'vril' force (which was sought after by Hitlers weapon scientists during world war II , in their quest for new secret weapons). This 'vril' foprce was mentally directed energy, which is believed to be teh technique they used to raise huge block of masonry in ancient building works.
Rudolph Steiner, COSMIC MEMORY: ATLANTIS AND LEMURIA, descrbes the Lemurians a s simple minded (bi-camera) but possessed of enormous will power which enabled them to raise and manipulate great weights, a faculty which they seemingly passed on to the Atlanteans. They also had souls, which their predecessors apparently didn't hve, and they had begun to develop some for of rudimentary speech. Not having the ability to reason (bi-camera), they did however have excellent memories, and were educated in such a fashion as to be able to solve problems by recalled precedents. However, new and unprecedented situations left them bemused, since, they simply 'did not compute' . They apparently also possessed certain magical word powers of command, which they could employ to heal the sick or tame wild animals. He, too, like Scott Ellion (from whom he clearly also borrowed as freely as from Madame Blavatsky), spoke of Atlantean Semites evolving into the Areyan race, and acquiring, along the way, the ability to reason and develop consciences. and to refine these qualities up to our modern, human standard.
HYPERBOREA AND ULTIMA THULE
The first mention we find of the Hyperboreans, is in the mythology of ancient Greece, before the time of Homer. However , Herodotus mentions them as being part of the legendary Theban Epic and being in some way connected with the Cult of Apollo, the Sun God and that their homeland was in a paradise like country 'beyond the North Wind', which indicates a region that may now lie with the artic Circle, or certainly in the far North Atlantic. The Hyperborians according to this same source, were alleged to live for a thousand years, but they had a tradition that any who tired of such a long life could end it in a ritual suicide cereomony, whereby the person involved was decked with floral garlands and allowed to jump off a high pinnacle into the sea.
Other legends seem to indicate that it was ' that happy land lying to the west, towards the setting sun', The Garden of the Hesperides, where trees bore golden fruit; the Elysian Fields or even the Happy Isles! Generally, it is believed to have been a veritable paradise on earth, and many have been an island lying somewhere between Azores and Iceland, which, like atlantis, sank beneath the waves after some grat catastrophe. There are some scholars who directly connect the two, and claim that Hyp0erborea was, in fact, the lost continent of Atlantis. THis also blends well with the Golden Apple Legends of Avalon.
Hyperborea anbd Thule may go back to the period prior to the last polar shift. In which case, much of the land that now lies with the Artic Circle was then warm to temperate country, richly carpeted with grasslands and forests, and all of Ntures bounty, both vegetable and animal. Greenland may be Ultima Thule and Iceland as Thule. Although they are connected geologically, under the ocea, Ultima Thule and Thule seem to be separated ion mythology into two distinct islands, and since the name Ultima Thule impleis furtherest away, the Thule must habe been closer to Euope than it. The obvious candidate for Thule then, must be Iceland. According to Pytheas, a famous navigator of the 4th century BC , Thuyle was a six day sea voyage north of Britain, though whether by saile or by oar power isn't stated, but it seems to set the location of Thuler as moder Iceland. Common Sense wuold then suggest the Aultima Thule had to be Greenland, And both, at one time could have been unite3d in one unsubmerged land mass - the Continent of Hyperborea.
Jean Sylvain Bailly ( 1736 - 1793) who was an astronomer and a mystic, comment " It is a very remarkable thing that enlightenment appears to hve come from the North, against the common prejudice that the earth was enlightened, as it was populated, from the South" He then goes to point out that, according to all the legends and ancient wisdom, " as humanity began to reconstitute itself after the Noashic Deluge, the purest stream of civilization descended freom Norther Asia into India, which to this day carries evidence of having the most ancient astronomical system on earth." He continues on to point out htat, in most of the ancient mytholgies of the world, there appears to be a race memory of a racial origin in the far North and a subsequent gradual migration southward. ( But keep in mind, south and north of those days, before the polar shift, would not be the same today)
Another great scientific mind of the same era, the Comte de Buffon, placed the first civilizations in northern and central Asia, est of the Caspian Sea, but he seemed to be in general agree,ent with Bailly about a northern orgin for mankind, rather than a iddle Eastern or Southern One. Rev. Dr. W.F. Warren, who was president of Boston University and belonged to several learned societies, revived the polar origin theory for mankind in a boook pulbishe din 1885 , PARADISE FOUND, of which the thesis was ' The the cradle of the human reace was situated at the North Pole, in a country subjmerged at the time of the Deluge;.
His theory compared very well with all the relevant sciences and compartive mythology - especially that of Germany. Warren was a Christian and an avowed anti-Darwinist, and he utterly rejected the concept of man having evolved from the ape, through a period of primitive savegery. He , like the Greeks, believed that the earliest men were the noblest and the longest lived, " and it was only after the Deluge, that humanity began to take on the feeble lineaments of ourselves." At least, in his works he reveals some amazing insight into what could have caused the Deluge, through God's Hand, by pointing out that, after the survivors of the polar flood settled in their North Asian Exile, They found the skies (or heaves) tilted in respect to the way they had known them: "The North Star was no logner overhead" , and he mentionsthat 'they perfectly understood why this was so"... "but their rude descendants , unfavoured with the treasures of antediluvian science, and born only to a savage nomadic life...might easily have forgotten the explanation. " - which was that , " instead of the human horizon, it was the earth that had shifted"! A polar Shift!
Bal Gangadhar Tilak (1856-1920) , a renowed pioneer protagonist of Indian Independence (India), at the turn of the century, was also a scholar in astronomy and Vedic antiquities, who among other feats, was able to place the oldest Indian Vedic Civilization at around 4500 BC . Tilak was jailed by the British for Anti -British writings for several years, and his time, he put to good use in studying the Veda Scripts, in relation to known astronomical and geological events. He published his findings in a work THE ARTIC HOME OF THE VEDAS, in 1903. In this he stated that, according to his readings of the Vedas, the orginal Artic home of humanity was destroyed around 10,000 - 8,000 BC by the last Ice Age, and that from 8,000 - 3,000 BC was tje Age pf Wamderomg. before the Vedic people finally settled in India between 5,000 - 3,000 BC. By then, he went on to add, they had already begun to forget their Artic orgins, and their traditions had begun to go rapidly downhill.
As we hve seen in earlier account, his timing of the cataclysm fits in very closely with what we know of the destruction of Atlantis and MU, so we can attribute it to the same cause - a sudden polar shift, resulting in both tidal waves and tectonic upheavals folloed by a veryu rapid relocation of the polar ice caps: the so called ICE AGE. So, we have the destruction MU, dated very approximately at 12,000 years ago, that of Atlantis around 10,000 -12,000 years ago, and according to best estimates, the destruction of the Hyuperborea also at around the same time frame of 10- 12,000 years ago.
Ancient Indian texts seem to point most clearly to the fact that the Artic region was the 'realm of the ancient gods' since they specifically mention that it is where the sun rises and sets only once a year, which demonstrates that the writers had a clear knowledge of the astronomical situation at the North Pole. Of course, they were quite right, since the sun only appears above the horizon for six months of the eyar, and is below it for the remaining six months! The question here is "How did those ancient Indians know this?"
The obvious answer is because it was recorded in the Vedic Hymms, which speak of "the Dawn of Many Days" and "The Thirty Dawn Sisters Circling Like A Wheel" . When applied to the Pole, these terms makes sense, since the sun takes exactly a month to actually appear above the horizon after the four month night. Four months rather than six hee, because the sun also takes a further month each year, to set. So , adopting for a moment the anciient world calendar of ten months, there's a polar twilight of one month, followed by a night of four months. Then a dawn of one month, followed by a day of four months! The Veedas are thus correct in every detail reggrding the polar night and day, even though written thousands of years ago! Obviously, these ancient forebears of the Indian People , the Aryans, knew this from first hand experience.
The oldest Vedic year had only two priciple divisions, which were called devas and pitras; names which correlated with the "Day of the Gods" and the "Night of the Gods". This curiously enough, is very reminiscent of another dramatic piece of Germanic Aryan mythology - "Gottdammerung" - "The Twilight of the Gods" - which is a strangely apt connection with the Vedic Aryan Polar Year! Mayans used this same principle.
