RE: Snippets from the Ancient World: Trojan Horse, Gates of Hell, and Angamuco

in #history7 years ago (edited)

Hello @donkeypong
The refutation of the Trojan horse could be true. Sometimes historians like to add a bit of sweetner (sugar as my people call it to their tales). I'll read more on it and maybe edit this comment.

Gates of Hell? Ancient people could be quite funny sometimes. It's funny how hell was just hot carbon dioxide.

The Aztec and Mayan history has always fascinated me. Part of my bucket list is it visit Mexico and Peru. But to think of it, I read in an history book that those big buildings were built by aliens. I can't remember the name or author, I'll have to dig it up.

This is a good read. It's time to go do some more reading on them.

Thanks for the comment. There are various theories of alien intervention having stimulated the rise of some of the great ancient civilizations. There's even a Mayan or Aztec image that looks like an alien sitting in a spaceship, plus some odd looking figures from Iraq, I think, but all of it subject to other reasonable explanations as well.
