--> 00:08:31,333 For Jon and many who share the traditional beliefs 169 00:08:31,458 --> 00:08:32,917 of their ancestors, 170 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,458 the answer is a resounding yes. 171 00:08:36,542 --> 00:08:40,625 I believe that these visitations have been documented 172 00:08:40,708 --> 00:08:43,917 in pictographs and petroglyphs. 173 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,542 They're not art, actually, for art's sake. 174 00:08:47,625 --> 00:08:50,708 The petroglyphs have been done this way 175 00:08:50,792 --> 00:08:53,500 for basically thousands of years. 176 00:08:53,583 --> 00:08:55,833 And that tells me 177 00:08:55,917 --> 00:08:59,083 that there were a lot of different types of beings 178 00:08:59,167 --> 00:09:01,208 that were interacting 179 00:09:01,292 --> 00:09:02,666 with early Natives, 180 00:09:02,667 --> 00:09:03,667 with early Natives, 181 00:09:03,792 --> 00:09:05,625 much more than we even, think. 182 00:09:13,042 --> 00:09:16,000 Some of the

00:09:21,083 --> 00:09:23,708 what the people who carved it were depicting 186 00:09:23,792 --> 00:09:27,542 was actually misunderstood alien technology. 187 00:09:28,542 --> 00:09:30,167 Coming in at number eight 188 00:09:30,208 --> 00:09:34,542 on our countdown of the Top Ten Alien Petroglyphs: 189 00:09:34,625 --> 00:09:37,667 The Birdmen of Easter Island. 190 00:09:46,458 --> 00:09:49,625 This remote landmass in the South Pacific 191 00:09:49,708 --> 00:09:52,500 is famous for the colossal stone statues, 192 00:09:52,583 --> 00:09:55,167 called moai, that dot its coast. 193 00:09:55,250 --> 00:09:57,917 But on the southwestern tip of the island 194 00:09:58,042 --> 00:10:01,167 are a serious of equally mysterious petroglyphs 195 00:10:01,250 --> 00:10:05,333 that represent one of Easter Island's oldest creation myths... 196 00:10:05,417 --> 00:10:08,167 The legend of Tangata manu, 197 00:10:08,208 --> 00:10:10,833 or the birdmen. 198 00:10:10,958 --> 00:10:12,125 According to the Rapa Nui, 199 00:10:12,208 --> 00:10:14,250 the Indigenous people of Easter Island, 200 00:10:14,375 --> 00:10:17,750 when the great creator god looked in the mirror, 201 00:10:17,833 --> 00:10:21,417 he saw a bird over his shoulder 202 00:10:21,500 --> 00:10:24,708 and thought the image was good. 203 00:10:24,792 --> 00:10:26,625 And so he created a creature 204 00:10:26,708 --> 00:10:31,125 that was a combination of bird and human. 205 00:10:31,208 --> 00:10:34,042 But the creator god was still lonely. 206 00:10:34,167 --> 00:10:35,667 So he created humans. 207 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,125 But the humans worshipped the birdman 208 00:10:39,208 --> 00:10:43,708 because that was the great god's first creation. 209 00:10:45,833 --> 00:10:49,500 One of the central focuses of the rituals, 210 00:10:49,625 --> 00:10:52,667 the annual rituals at Easter Island, 211 00:10:52,792 --> 00:10:57,625 was that of Tangata manu, the birdman. 212 00:10:58,625 --> 00:11:01,792 And the birdman is a universal symbol 213 00:11:01,875 --> 00:11:04,792 that we find in many parts of the globe 214 00:11:04,875 --> 00:11:07,708 that relates to ancestry 215 00:11:07,792 --> 00:11:10,208 associated with figures, 216 00:11:10,292 --> 00:11:13,292 characters in feather coats who were seen 217 00:11:13,375 --> 00:11:18,083 to be able to go between this world and the next. 218 00:11:19,125 --> 00:11:21,750 The birdman motif is found in Egypt 219 00:11:21,833 --> 00:11:24,667 with Horus the savior figure 220 00:11:24,750 --> 00:11:28,042 and Thoth the god of divine magic and alchemy. 221 00:11:28,125 --> 00:11:31,500 We find birdmen in among the Maya with Quetzalcoatl, 222 00:11:31,583 --> 00:11:34,042 the feathered serpent, a birdman. 223 00:11:34,125 --> 00:11:38,042 We also find birdmen in Cahokia, Illinois. 224 00:11:38,125 --> 00:11:40,542 When we look at the birdman legend, 225 00:11:40,625 --> 00:11:42,666 it always has a cosmic connection, 226 00:11:42,667 --> 00:11:45,167 that these are humanoid figures 227 00:11:45,208 --> 00:11:47,917 that also have a celestial dimension to them. 228 00:11:48,042 --> 00:11:50,125 They can fly, they can ascend, 229 00:11:50,208 --> 00:11:52,667 therefore they're referred to as birdmen. 230 00:11:54,083 --> 00:11:56,083 For ancient astronaut theorists, 231 00:11:56,167 --> 00:11:58,625 the most intriguing depiction of birdmen 232 00:11:58,708 --> 00:12:00,833 can be found by examining the stories 233 00:12:00,917 --> 00:12:02,708 of the Sumerian civilization 234 00:12:02,792 --> 00:12:05,250 that emerged 5,000 years ago 235 00:12:05,333 --> 00:12:09,333 and the beings they called the Anunnaki. 236 00:12:10,417 --> 00:12:14,792 The term Anunnaki means "those who from the heavens came." 237 00:12:14,875 --> 00:12:16,875 And our ancestors thought 238 00:12:16,958 --> 00:12:21,083 they were being visited by these divine magical beings. 239 00:12:22,833 --> 00:12:24,309 In the ancient Sumerian texts, 240 00:12:24,333 --> 00:12:29,917 they were described as bringing knowledge and science. 241 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:35,083 They were often depicted as bird-type people. 242 00:12:35,167 --> 00:12:38,708 So we have to ask ourselves, are these birdmen 243 00:12:38,875 --> 00:12:42,417 actually representatives of the Anunnaki 244 00:12:42,500 --> 00:12:44,167 who are extraterrestrials 245 00:12:44,208 --> 00:12:47,375 who appeared all over the world in prehistory? 246 00:12:50,292 --> 00:12:53,500 For ancient astronaut theorists like me, 247 00:12:53,583 --> 00:12:57,583 many of the mysterious images created by our ancestors 248 00:12:57,667 --> 00:12:59,874 provide compelling clues 249 00:12:59,875 --> 00:13:03,292 that suggest extraterrestrials visited Earth 250 00:13:03,375 --> 00:13:04,875 thousands of years ago. 251 00:13:04,958 --> 00:13:08,333 However, at one site in Northern California, 252 00:13:08,417 --> 00:13:11,833 the carvings aren't just records of the distant past 253 00:13:11,958 --> 00:13:16,625 but depict UFOs that are still seen today. 254 00:13:16,708 --> 00:13:19,208 Number seven on our countdown: 255 00:13:19,292 --> 00:13:23,292 The Petroglyphs at Lava Beds National Monument. 256 00:13:28,125 --> 00:13:30,792 60 miles northeast of Mount Shasta, 257 00:13:30,875 --> 00:13:33,167 at Lava Beds National Monument, 258 00:13:33,250 --> 00:13:35,500 are thousands of petroglyphs. 259 00:13:35,583 --> 00:13:38,000 These large geometric carvings 260 00:13:38,083 --> 00:13:41,583 were created as much as 6,000 years ago 261 00:13:41,708 --> 00:13:43,917 by ancestors of the Modoc tribe. 262 00:13:45,042 --> 00:13:48,625 Lava Beds has probably over 5,000 263 00:13:48,708 --> 00:13:50,125 different petroglyphs. 264 00:13:50,208 --> 00:13:54,375 And a lot of these were done down in caves. 265 00:13:54,458 --> 00:13:57,750 A lot of the rock art you find in Lava Beds 266 00:13:57,833 --> 00:14:00,042 is very different and unusual 267 00:14:00,167 --> 00:14:03,333 from rock art you find in other places of America. 268 00:14:05,500 --> 00:14:08,583 One of the most striking images you find in Lava Beds 269 00:14:08,667 --> 00:14:12,750 is an image of Mount Shasta carved into a cliffside, 270 00:14:12,833 --> 00:14:17,833 and inside of it is a depiction of some kind of being. 271 00:14:19,375 --> 00:14:21,167 According to the Modoc, 272 00:14:21,208 --> 00:14:25,833 this figure represents their creator, known as Skell. 273 00:14:25,917 --> 00:14:28,583 The local people 274 00:14:28,667 --> 00:14:30,958 believe that in ancient times, 275 00:14:31,042 --> 00:14:33,542 the great Sky Chief Skell 276 00:14:33,625 --> 00:14:34,833 came down from the sky 277 00:14:34,917 --> 00:14:36,958 to live in Shasta 278 00:14:37,042 --> 00:14:41,500 and has been there ever since and protects it. 279 00:14:42,708 --> 00:14:44,917 Is it possible this petroglyph 280 00:14:45,042 --> 00:14:47,458 represents an otherworldly being 281 00:14:47,542 --> 00:14:51,833 that the Modoc people encountered centuries ago? 282 00:14:51,917 --> 00:14:54,917 Ancient astronaut theorists say yes 283 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,917 and suggest further evidence can be found 284 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,500 by examining the bizarre stories 285 00:15:00,542 --> 00:15:05,000 that have been associated with Mount Shasta for centuries. 286 00:15:06,583 --> 00:15:09,375 I was driving back from, Klamath Falls. 287 00:15:09,458 --> 00:15:13,333 It was, around 7:00 in the evening in the summertime. 288 00:15:13,375 --> 00:15:16,542 All of a sudden I seen the whole mountain 289 00:15:16,625 --> 00:15:19,375 toward Yreka side open up. 290 00:15:20,542 --> 00:15:22,667 And then this big ship came 291 00:15:22,708 --> 00:15:24,958 and hovered for a minute and then went right in. 292 00:15:25,042 --> 00:15:27,083 And the next thing you know, the mountain closed, 293 00:15:27,167 --> 00:15:30,542 and I was like, "What is going on?" 294 00:15:32,208 --> 00:15:34,792 Almost everyone who lives there 295 00:15:34,875 --> 00:15:36,792 has-has seen something unusual. 296 00:15:36,875 --> 00:15:41,417 One of the most remarkable UFO sightings I've heard of, 297 00:15:41,542 --> 00:15:43,083 it took place in 2008. 298 00:15:43,208 --> 00:15:45,667 Witnesses in the town of McCloud 299 00:15:45,708 --> 00:15:50,583 saw a UFO that looked like a giant glowing jellyfish 300 00:15:50,708 --> 00:15:55,583 move over the town and then fly off into the distance. 301 00:15:56,875 --> 00:15:59,208 For many hundreds of years, Mount Shasta 302 00:15:59,333 --> 00:16:02,167 has been known for mysterious lights. 303 00:16:03,250 --> 00:16:06,208 They seem to just manifest out of the mountain. 304 00:16:06,292 --> 00:16:10,125 So, what is it that might be responsible 305 00:16:10,208 --> 00:16:13,125 for causing this activity? 306 00:16:13,208 --> 00:16:17,167 I believe that places like Mount Shasta 307 00:16:17,292 --> 00:16:19,999 are in many ways Earth portals. 308 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,917 They are places of connection 309 00:16:22,042 --> 00:16:26,333 between this world and somewhere else altogether. 310 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,667 Is it possible that the mysterious winged figure 311 00:16:31,750 --> 00:16:33,958 at Lava Beds National Monument 312 00:16:34,042 --> 00:16:36,582 is connected to the UFO sightings 313 00:16:36,583 --> 00:16:40,542 that continue to be reported around Mount Shasta? 314 00:16:40,625 --> 00:16:42,708 The petroglyph that shows 315 00:16:42,833 --> 00:16:44,059 something coming out of the mountain, 316 00:16:44,083 --> 00:16:46,542 that's basically what, what I seen right here 317 00:16:46,625 --> 00:16:47,750 when it happened to me. 318 00:16:47,875 --> 00:16:50,333 That's what I seen. 319 00:16:50,375 --> 00:16:53,625 And I-I guess maybe I had to see it, too, 320 00:16:53,708 --> 00:16:55,250 before I could believe. 321 00:17:02,542 --> 00:17:04,708 In 2014, a mysterious cave painting 322 00:17:04,792 --> 00:17:07,000 was found in India that I believe 323 00:17:07,083 --> 00:17:09,583 contains some of the best evidence yet 324 00:17:09,667 --> 00:17:14,000 that our ancestors encountered extraterrestrial beings. 325 00:17:14,083 --> 00:17:16,708 Number six on our countdown: 326 00:17:16,833 --> 00:17:18,667 Charama Rock. 327 00:17:21,542 --> 00:17:27,167 Central India, July 2014. 328 00:17:28,250 --> 00:17:31,250 While exploring caves in the region of Charama, 329 00:17:31,333 --> 00:17:34,083 Indian archaeologist J.R.

--> 00:28:54,750 and in the myth of Phaethon we learn the story 537 00:28:54,833 --> 00:28:58,000 of how he descended to Earth in a fiery chariot... 538 00:28:59,708 --> 00:29:02,250 perhaps crashing into Mount Musinè. 539 00:29:04,667 --> 00:29:06,667 This also led to something fortuitous 540 00:29:06,708 --> 00:29:09,333 because he brought gifts to this place, 541 00:29:09,375 --> 00:29:12,167 he had great skills, was a metallurgist, 542 00:29:12,208 --> 00:29:16,667 and taught this to the local people. 543 00:29:16,792 --> 00:29:21,208 When we look at myths such as the myth of Phaethon, 544 00:29:21,333 --> 00:29:26,000 here is really the story of a UFO 545 00:29:26,042 --> 00:29:28,000 landing on a mountain 546 00:29:28,083 --> 00:29:30,250 and interacting with the locals. 547 00:29:32,250 --> 00:29:35,124 When we look behind this myth of Phaethon, 548 00:29:35,125 --> 00:29:37,417 perhaps this is what we're also seeing at Val Camonica. 549 00:29:38,500 --> 00:29:41,874 I think, given the connection with the spacemen 550 00:29:41,875 --> 00:29:43,625 that are etched into the rock, 551 00:29:43,708 --> 00:29:45,101 we have to be open to the possibility 552 00:29:45,125 --> 00:29:47,833 that what the ancient artist is trying to portray 553 00:29:47,917 --> 00:29:50,167 is something that he actually saw in the sky, 554 00:29:50,250 --> 00:29:53,208 something coming out of the heavens. 555 00:29:57,250 --> 00:30:00,083 For ancient astronaut theorists, 556 00:30:00,167 --> 00:30:02,000 the Spaceman of Val Camonica 557 00:30:02,083 --> 00:30:03,958 and the legends that surround it 558 00:30:04,042 --> 00:30:06,167 are evidence that our ancestors 559 00:30:06,208 --> 00:30:09,833 were visited by extraterrestrial beings. 560 00:30:09,917 --> 00:30:11,750 But an even more compelling depiction 561 00:30:11,875 --> 00:30:13,750 of these possible visitors 562 00:30:13,875 --> 00:30:16,833 can be found on the opposite side of the world 563 00:30:16,958 --> 00:30:19,333 in the rock art of Australia. 564 00:30:19,375 --> 00:30:24,250 Number three on our countdown: The Wandjina. 565 00:30:26,875 --> 00:30:28,583 Northwestern Australia. 566 00:30:29,667 --> 00:30:33,958 Here, in a rugged desert region known as Kimberley, 567 00:30:34,042 --> 00:30:36,500 are dozens of caves that are covered 568 00:30:36,625 --> 00:30:41,333 in paintings of mysterious figures called the Wandjina. 569 00:30:41,417 --> 00:30:45,208 If you look at these Wandjina figures in the cave art, 570 00:30:45,292 --> 00:30:49,792 they have big, white faces. 571 00:30:49,875 --> 00:30:54,375 They have really no mouth to speak of. 572 00:30:54,458 --> 00:30:58,833 They have very large, black eyes, 573 00:30:58,875 --> 00:31:03,125 and there's a field around their heads. 574 00:31:04,417 --> 00:31:06,500 To the Aboriginal people 575 00:31:06,583 --> 00:31:09,167 who have lived in Australia for thousands of years, 576 00:31:09,250 --> 00:31:12,000 the Wandjina are important figures 577 00:31:12,042 --> 00:31:14,250 in their creation myths. 578 00:31:14,333 --> 00:31:18,833 The Aboriginals have all kinds of ancient stories 579 00:31:18,875 --> 00:31:24,250 of Wandjina figures, of great heroes 580 00:31:24,333 --> 00:31:28,917 and sky gods who manipulated the continent, 581 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,292 created the rivers and mountains, 582 00:31:31,375 --> 00:31:34,042 and fought amongst each other and then they left. 583 00:31:36,333 --> 00:31:39,667 We All have stories of people in crafts 584 00:31:39,708 --> 00:31:44,458 coming from the stars, going to the stars, and so on. 585 00:31:44,542 --> 00:31:47,458 In order to keep them, pass them down to next generation 586 00:31:47,542 --> 00:31:50,125 we carved them, we painted them. We sung them. 587 00:31:50,208 --> 00:31:51,874 We danced them in stories 588 00:31:51,875 --> 00:31:53,583 to guarantee that they passed down. 589 00:31:53,667 --> 00:31:57,833 So when the visitors left, we didn't forget about them. 590 00:31:57,875 --> 00:31:59,125 And we never forget about 591 00:31:59,208 --> 00:32:00,833 the things that they passed down to us 592 00:32:00,875 --> 00:32:03,167 and the knowledge they passed down. 593 00:32:03,208 --> 00:32:05,667 In many ways, these Wandjina figures 594 00:32:05,750 --> 00:32:09,667 look exactly like Grey aliens. 595 00:32:09,750 --> 00:32:12,000 And you have to wonder, then, 596 00:32:12,083 --> 00:32:15,042 if the cave art is depicting extraterrestrials. 597 00:32:18,583 --> 00:32:20,333 The Wandjina petroglyphs 598 00:32:20,417 --> 00:32:24,083 are actual physical representations 599 00:32:24,208 --> 00:32:27,374 of what the First Nation people of Australia 600 00:32:27,375 --> 00:32:27,708 of what the First Nation people of Australia 601 00:32:28,042 --> 00:32:30,042 actually witnessed. 602 00:32:30,125 --> 00:32:33,583 So this to me is an incredible treasure trove 603 00:32:33,667 --> 00:32:35,375 for the ancient astronaut theory. 604 00:32:41,417 --> 00:32:42,476 Of all the mysterious petroglyphs 605 00:32:42,500 --> 00:32:45,000 we've examined on Ancient Aliens, 606 00:32:45,083 --> 00:32:47,167 some of the most astounding can be found 607 00:32:47,250 --> 00:32:49,125 in the American Southwest. 608 00:32:49,208 --> 00:32:51,792 The region is chock-full of carvings 609 00:32:51,875 --> 00:32:54,000 that show strange humanoid figures 610 00:32:54,125 --> 00:32:56,083 who came down from the sky. 611 00:32:56,208 --> 00:32:58,875 At number two on our countdown: 612 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:00,000 The Rock Art of Utah. 613 00:33:00,001 --> 00:33:01,542 The Rock Art of Utah. 614 00:33:04,417 --> 00:33:07,667 Nine Mile Canyon, Eastern Utah. 615 00:33:07,792 --> 00:33:11,832 Often described as "the world's longest art gallery," 616 00:33:11,833 --> 00:33:16,250 the red sandstone cliffs that border this 46-mile-long canyon 617 00:33:16,375 --> 00:33:19,958 are covered with more than 10,000 petroglyphs. 618 00:33:20,042 --> 00:33:22,333 Many depict hunting scenes 619 00:33:22,375 --> 00:33:25,833 and contain images of animals found in the region. 620 00:33:25,917 --> 00:33:28,250 But one mysterious panel 621 00:33:28,333 --> 00:33:31,750 seems oddly out of place. 622 00:33:31,875 --> 00:33:33,434 One of the most important galleries 623 00:33:33,458 --> 00:33:35,333 is referred to as the Family Panel. 624 00:33:35,375 --> 00:33:37,207 What's interesting about this one 625 00:33:37,208 --> 00:33:39,917 is that it shows these apparently luminous 626 00:33:40,042 --> 00:33:42,917 humanoid-type beings 627 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,292 that appear to have space suits on, 628 00:33:45,375 --> 00:33:47,458 a helmet, even antennae. 629 00:33:49,333 --> 00:33:51,957 The Navajos themselves claim 630 00:33:51,958 --> 00:33:55,458 that these petroglyphs were from 631 00:33:55,542 --> 00:33:58,500 people who were before the flood, 632 00:33:58,583 --> 00:34:02,167 before this cataclysm had come to the Earth. 633 00:34:02,250 --> 00:34:04,875 And they maintain that these images 634 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:08,208 were many thousands of years old. 635 00:34:10,875 --> 00:34:14,083 Just 70 miles south of Nine Mile Canyon, 636 00:34:14,167 --> 00:34:17,333 in Sego Canyon, another panel of petroglyphs 637 00:34:17,375 --> 00:34:19,542 shows nearly identical figures. 638 00:34:19,667 --> 00:34:24,167 They look like spacemen. 639 00:34:24,250 --> 00:34:26,333 You have these strange creatures 640 00:34:26,417 --> 00:34:28,000 that for all intents and purposes 641 00:34:28,042 --> 00:34:30,208 seem to be floating up in the sky. 642 00:34:30,333 --> 00:34:33,125 They appear to wear helmets. 643 00:34:33,208 --> 00:34:35,375 Very strange. 644 00:34:36,417 --> 00:34:37,875 So you have to ask, what was it 645 00:34:37,958 --> 00:34:41,125 that inspired these unusual images? 646 00:34:41,208 --> 00:34:44,333 Is it possible that they depict sky beings 647 00:34:44,417 --> 00:34:46,708 who came down from the stars 648 00:34:46,792 --> 00:34:48,292 to help the people, which is what 649 00:34:48,375 --> 00:34:50,792 the Native legends say? 650 00:34:53,583 --> 00:34:55,833 According to the traditions of the Navajo, 651 00:34:55,875 --> 00:34:58,542 Fremont and Ute peoples 652 00:34:58,625 --> 00:35:01,083 who have lived in this area for centuries, 653 00:35:01,167 --> 00:35:04,167 these figures represent visitors 654 00:35:04,250 --> 00:35:07,042 who descended from the sky. 655 00:35:07,125 --> 00:35:09,292 In talking about star people, 656 00:35:09,375 --> 00:35:11,000 all Native American tribes 657 00:35:11,083 --> 00:35:14,167 have these, traditional oral histories 658 00:35:14,250 --> 00:35:16,749 that people came from the stars to visit them. 659 00:35:16,750 --> 00:35:20,666 And it's universal, all across the United States 660 00:35:20,667 --> 00:35:24,167 that these gods, as we call them today, 661 00:35:24,208 --> 00:35:27,667 came to Earth and visited to provide knowledge. 662 00:35:29,208 --> 00:35:30,917 The creation story, 663 00:35:31,042 --> 00:35:35,208 if you understand it correctly, we are all from the cosmos. 664 00:35:35,292 --> 00:35:38,833 Our ancestors were extraterrestrial. 665 00:35:40,083 --> 00:35:43,500 The story is told to Indigenous people 666 00:35:43,583 --> 00:35:47,042 for thousands of years through oral histories 667 00:35:47,167 --> 00:35:50,083 and through the petroglyphs 668 00:35:50,167 --> 00:35:53,750 and pictographs and the sacred sites 669 00:35:53,833 --> 00:35:55,917 that continue to be part of 670 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,583 our Native cultural traditions. 671 00:36:00,333 --> 00:36:01,667 The Native Americans 672 00:36:01,750 --> 00:36:05,333 traditionally use a oral tradition. 673 00:36:05,458 --> 00:36:08,458 Everything is spoken. 674 00:36:08,542 --> 00:36:12,083 The oral traditions actually go back thousands of years. 675 00:36:12,208 --> 00:36:14,417 It's just the way it was. 676 00:36:14,542 --> 00:36:17,333 And we've maintained that tradition even to this day. 677 00:36:19,083 --> 00:36:20,500 If in fact what we're seeing 678 00:36:20,583 --> 00:36:22,542 are portraying visitors from the stars, 679 00:36:22,625 --> 00:36:26,250 it would make sense why they're wearing these space suits. 680 00:36:26,333 --> 00:36:28,542 Because they would conceivably need protection 681 00:36:28,625 --> 00:36:31,041 from Earth's atmosphere and Earth's environment. 682 00:36:31,042 --> 00:36:34,667 Do the petroglyphs at Nine Mile Canyon 683 00:36:34,708 --> 00:36:36,333 and Sego Canyon 684 00:36:36,417 --> 00:36:38,458 point to Utah being a place 685 00:36:38,542 --> 00:36:40,833 of ancient alien visitation? 686 00:36:40,917 --> 00:36:45,000 Native American people have been very clear 687 00:36:45,083 --> 00:36:48,874 when they speak of celestial beings that imparted knowledge. 688 00:36:48,875 --> 00:36:50,434 When they speak of celestial beings that imparted knowledge. 689 00:36:50,458 --> 00:36:54,375 And so, if you compare that to the ancient astronaut theory, 690 00:36:54,458 --> 00:36:56,917 that's exactly what it talks about, 691 00:36:57,042 --> 00:36:59,583 that the knowledge was imparted 692 00:36:59,667 --> 00:37:01,917 by beings who visited us. 693 00:37:06,292 --> 00:37:08,083 While Utah has thousands of petroglyphs 694 00:37:08,208 --> 00:37:10,417 that feature mysterious beings, 695 00:37:10,500 --> 00:37:12,250 one stands apart. 696 00:37:12,333 --> 00:37:14,250 It depicts a group of figures 697 00:37:14,375 --> 00:37:16,125 meeting with what appears to be 698 00:37:16,208 --> 00:37:17,833 an extraterrestrial. 699 00:37:17,875 --> 00:37:20,833 Number one on our list: 700 00:37:20,875 --> 00:37:22,916 The Holy Ghost Panel. 701 00:37:22,917 --> 00:37:23,917 The Holy Ghost Panel. 702 00:37:28,417 --> 00:37:30,708 Horseshoe Canyon, Utah. 703 00:37:30,792 --> 00:37:34,792 Located within Canyonlands National Park, 704 00:37:34,875 --> 00:37:38,500 the sandstone walls of this five-mile-long ravine 705 00:37:38,625 --> 00:37:41,458 feature some of the most remarkable petroglyphs 706 00:37:41,542 --> 00:37:43,625 in the United States. 707 00:37:43,708 --> 00:37:47,917 The intricate designs depict Native American shamans 708 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:49,833 and the otherworldly creatures 709 00:37:49,917 --> 00:37:53,000 they claimed to communicate with. 710 00:37:53,083 --> 00:37:55,833 Well, here we have a classic shaman, 711 00:37:55,917 --> 00:37:57,875 with the hourglass figure, 712 00:37:57,958 --> 00:37:59,833 feet pointed outward, 713 00:37:59,875 --> 00:38:03,167 arms which have bird's feet at the end, 714 00:38:03,250 --> 00:38:05,083 which signifies spirituality. 715 00:38:05,167 --> 00:38:08,458 And it's got the horns with the fringes coming out. 716 00:38:09,750 --> 00:38:12,667 But one section is of particular interest 717 00:38:12,750 --> 00:38:14,625 to ancient astronaut theorists. 718 00:38:14,708 --> 00:38:18,375 It's called the Ghost Panel. 719 00:38:18,458 --> 00:38:22,042 When you see the Ghost Panel, you see 720 00:38:22,125 --> 00:38:23,458 what are seven or eight 721 00:38:23,542 --> 00:38:28,125 very tall figures in unusual garments. 722 00:38:28,208 --> 00:38:30,083 They look like space suits. 723 00:38:30,167 --> 00:38:32,833 They're wearing some long robes, 724 00:38:32,917 --> 00:38:36,500 and it looks like they have helmets and things on. 725 00:38:36,583 --> 00:38:41,042 They're quite large and very strange looking. 726 00:38:41,167 --> 00:38:45,875 And certainly they look like some kind of spacemen 727 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,167 or extraterrestrials who have come down. 728 00:38:48,250 --> 00:38:50,333 For researchers, 729 00:38:50,458 --> 00:38:52,708 the most perplexing part of the painting 730 00:38:52,792 --> 00:38:56,500 is a curious detail on the large central figure. 731 00:38:56,625 --> 00:39:00,458 The central ghost-like figure, which is called the Holy Ghost. 732 00:39:00,542 --> 00:39:02,059 If you look at the head of the Holy Ghost, 733 00:39:02,083 --> 00:39:05,000 you'll see his two eyes in the front of his face. 734 00:39:05,125 --> 00:39:06,500 But if you look to the left, 735 00:39:06,542 --> 00:39:07,958 you'll see the side of his head. 736 00:39:08,042 --> 00:39:10,500 This is a device which you do not see 737 00:39:10,583 --> 00:39:12,708 in any prehistoric art, 738 00:39:12,833 --> 00:39:15,542 and this motif is one of the reasons why I-I feel 739 00:39:15,708 --> 00:39:19,167 that this represents a-an event. 740 00:39:19,208 --> 00:39:21,458 Archaeologists suggest 741 00:39:21,542 --> 00:39:24,833 the Ghost Panel was created 10,000 years ago. 742 00:39:24,917 --> 00:39:28,874 Just who made these images remains a mystery. 743 00:39:28,875 --> 00:39:31,708 But ancient astronaut theorists believe 744 00:39:31,792 --> 00:39:36,625 clues can be found within ancient traditions. 745 00:39:36,708 --> 00:39:39,542 The Navajo, they tell us that this rock art 746 00:39:39,625 --> 00:39:41,582 was actually created by their ancestors 747 00:39:41,583 --> 00:39:44,333 who lived there long, long ago 748 00:39:44,417 --> 00:39:47,333 and in fact were the survivors of a flood. 749 00:39:47,375 --> 00:39:49,417 The Navajo referred to themselves 750 00:39:49,500 --> 00:39:52,500 as descendants of the Holy People. 751 00:39:52,542 --> 00:39:54,184 And that these Holy People in fact helped them 752 00:39:54,208 --> 00:39:56,333 emerge after a cataclysm. 753 00:39:56,375 --> 00:39:59,917 The story of mysterious, humanoid beings 754 00:40:00,042 --> 00:40:02,917 assisting Native peoples has been recounted 755 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:06,542 for centuries in the American Southwest. 756 00:40:06,625 --> 00:40:09,000 Many researchers believe 757 00:40:09,042 --> 00:40:11,583 these encounters were so significant 758 00:40:11,667 --> 00:40:14,583 that they were carved in stone. 759 00:40:14,667 --> 00:40:16,583 For hundreds of years, 760 00:40:16,708 --> 00:40:19,292 the Native Americans who lived in that area 761 00:40:19,375 --> 00:40:21,333 called the Ghost Panel 762 00:40:21,417 --> 00:40:23,500 the Panel of the Star People. 763 00:40:23,583 --> 00:40:26,083 Clearly, they are strangers 764 00:40:26,208 --> 00:40:28,750 of some kind to these people. 765 00:40:28,833 --> 00:40:31,333 And if that's what it was, 766 00:40:31,417 --> 00:40:33,167 then we might assume that they 767 00:40:33,250 --> 00:40:35,875 are depicting extraterrestrials. 768 00:40:39,167 --> 00:40:42,667 The moment you lay eyes on the Holy Ghost Panel, 769 00:40:42,750 --> 00:40:45,542 you know you're looking at something extraordinary. 770 00:40:45,667 --> 00:40:49,083 And it's much more than a mere coincidence 771 00:40:49,167 --> 00:40:50,874 that all around the world 772 00:40:50,875 --> 00:40:54,333 our ancestors made carvings and paintings 773 00:40:54,458 --> 00:40:57,125 of mysterious beings that they believe 774 00:40:57,208 --> 00:40:58,750 came from the sky. 775 00:40:58,875 --> 00:41:01,333 Could it be that these illustrations 776 00:41:01,417 --> 00:41:03,833 are all telling the same story? 777 00:41:03,917 --> 00:41:07,625 That we were visited in the distant past 778 00:41:07,708 --> 00:41:09,792 by extraterrestrials. 779 00:41:11,708 --> 00:41:13,792 >>>>oakislandtk<<<<< www.opensubtitles.org 59768
