Mexico


Teotihuacán is a large archaeological site in Mexico (North America) which is covering more than 20 square kilometers. Only about 3 percent of the site has been fully excavated. During the 14th century, before the Spanish conquest, the site had been found by the Aztec people who were traveling south. It was completely abandoned. It's original builders are still unknown, but the Aztecs were certain only the gods could have made it. Therefore they called it: "Teotihuacán", and they regarded it as a holy place.


Teotihuacan 1In the Nathuatl language of the Aztecs, "Teotihuacán" could translate to something like: "place where gods were born" or "place of the origin of gods". Indigenous legends assert that it was the "birthplace of creation", where the gods would observe the evolving world and judge its progress. The two largest pyramids would been built by the "giants" that existed in those days, and the purpose of the site was to "transform men into gods", probably meant allegorical. This could mean that this place was once a place for spiritual initiations, just like the Great Pyramid in Giza - according to the ancient Egyptian esoteric knowledge. (Image right: Pyramid of the Moon.)


Teotihuacan 2Until today, no single burial had been found within or below the pyramids, so they were most probably not tombs. Academics agree that the city was built for spiritual and political purposes. Although the structures on the site were - like the pyramids of Giza - obviously built with stability and durability in mind, they were actually not built with large megalithic stones, but smaller ones. There are estimated to be over 600 structures including two large pyramids; the Pyramid of the Sun and the Pyramid of the Moon, approximately 70 other large structures, and like over 500 much smaller ones.


Among these smaller structures, there are elevated square platforms, neatly arranged as seen in the image on the left, taken from above the Pyramid of the Moon. (Click here for a larger image.) According to Shirley Andrews' book "Atlantis: Insights from a Lost Civilization" (2002), the building plan and orientation of the buildings at Teotihuacán were built in alignment to the rising and setting of the Pleiades.

In the year 2003, a tunnel was discovered below the Temple of the Feathered Serpent (the third largest pyramid of Teotihuacan and known as the oldest pyramid in Mexico) when a heavy rainstorm exposed a shaft that led to a spot about halfway down its length. Over the next decade the team of archaeologist Sergio Gómez dug out the tunnel and found a series of two chambers on either side of the tunnel (north and south) in 2013. During the next years, many discoveries were being made. They found large spiral seashells, cat bones, pottery, fragments of human skin, wooden masks covered with inlaid rock jade and quartz, elaborate necklaces, rings, beetle wings arranged in a box, sculptures of jaguars, greenstone crocodile teeth, and pyrite mirrors.

small spheres discovery


With the aid of a small robot equipped with camera and infra-red scanners, Sergio's team also found hundreds of small spheres (dubbed "disco balls" by the archaeologists). Ranging from 4 to 13 centimeters, the balls have a core of clay and are covered with yellow jarosite formed by the oxidation of pyrite (Fool's Gold). The purpose of these orbs is still unknown, although they are considered to have been used in ritual practices. (See image right.

In her book: "Convoluted Universe (2001)", regression hypnotherapist Dolores Cannon described the finding of crystal balls of various sizes in the jungles of Central America, that "glow at night and produce light, but not as clearly as they used to". The book tells us that most of us would have only heard of the large ones (the Costa Rica stone spheres?) but they have found smaller ones about the size of a bowling ball or slightly smaller. "Archaeologists are calling them stone because they appear to be stone, but they are a specialized type of crystal... They are referred to as crystals because of their molecular structure." They were already used during the times of Atlantis as interior lights, street lights, and spot lights, to see in the dark, and then there were also used other types of crystals for other purposes, like crystals that radiated heat to help warm houses. According some news articles, these spheres that had been found below the Temple of the Feathered Serpent would appear to be "glowing" in the dark, so perhaps these were such kind of spheres as mentioned in this book and used for lighting.

objects discovery


Beyond these chambers, even more chambers were discovered with more objects, including: a wooden box filled with seashells that were carved with stone tools, rubber balls, jaguar remains, four greenstone human statues, a lot of beads and crystals shaped into eyes (the eyes of the figures that had came off).

There also was the discovery of a miniature mountainous landscape with tiny pools of liquid mercury representing lakes. The walls and ceiling of the tunnel were found to have been impregnated with mineral powder composed of magnetite, pyrite and hematite, providing a certain brightness to the place. (Which may add further evidence that the spheres could have been used as light sources.) Earlier before this discovery, mercury had also been found at three other sites in Central America; two of the Mayans and one of the Olmecs. (Source: Wikipedia.)
