Lost Islands, Giants, and Ancient Submerged Cities - ROBERT SEPEHR


According to Irish folklore an island named Hy-Brasil was located off of the west coast of Ireland, and although it was never officially found, the Island continued to appear on maps until at least 1873. The name derives from the Celtic word Breasal meaning ‘High king of the world’.

Fallen Angels of Atlantis and Archaic DNA - ROBERT SEPEHR


Having once been a privileged and favored people, the Atlanteans became corrupt and degraded, according to Plato, by interbreeding with mortals and diluting their noble seed which allegedly descended from the gods. So what did Plato mean by mortal admixture, when he said that the Atlantean divine portion began to fade away and became too diluted, too often, by the mortal admixture? History of Atlantis and the Lost Tribes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNRXk80J5A0 Lucifer and Ancient Greek Flood Myths https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvTuqoMZndg According to the Greek philosopher Plato, it was a city of immense wealth, being rich in natural minerals and lush vegetation. Atlanteans were said to have built fantastic temples, displayed beautiful architecture, and created magnificent statues to the gods. Hy-Brasil the Irish Atlantis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UknXN7DYDZ4 Ancient City Discovered Below the North Sea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ay42l2TCIqc Atlantis was said to be ruled by a confederation of kings and its power extended over Libya as far as Egypt and over Europe as far as Tuscany.

Lost History of the Empire of Atlantis - ROBERT SEPEHR



When people talk about Atlantis, they are usually referring to the writings of Plato, the Athenian philosopher who lived during the Classical period in Ancient Greece. According to Plato, massive cataclysms ended a powerful civilization 11,500 years ago , which incidentally is the same date anthropologists recognize as the end of the Pleistocene and start of our current Holocene age. Plato concedes that he learnt the legend of Atlantis from Solon who, in turn, got it from Egyptian priests that had preserved the tale on stone hieroglyphs. That said, there are other ancient sources which speak to a similar scenario.

Germanic Tribes, History, and Migrations - ROBERT SEPEHR


Prague is the capital of the Czech Republic, historical capital of Bohemia, and once was the main residence of several Holy Roman Emperors. It was an important city to the Hapsburg Monarchy and its Austro-Hungarian Empire, playing major roles in the Protestant Reformation, the and the Thirty Years' War The Protestant Reformation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGfqhkKaSPk
According to early sources such as the Icelandic sagas, the Swedes were a powerful tribe whose kings claimed descendence from the god Freyr. During the Viking Age, they constituted the basis of the subset known as the 'Rus' people, where we get the word Russian from, also associated with Slavic tribes.

The term German, which are composed of many tribes, but one great ethnic group, literally translates to 'Spear man', 'Gar' means spear, as the spear was the most common of weapons in ancient Germanic society and every free man had at least one.

Atlantis and the Lost Tribes - ROBERT SEPEHR


Global sea levels were 400 feet lower during the late Pleistocene, or Ice Age, when Atlantis was said to have existed in the Atlantic Ocean. The glaciers melted in several spurts, with a major cataclysm taking place 11,500 years ago, or 9500 BC, the date given by Plato for the destruction of Atlantis, which perfectly matches the geological record.

Secret Mysteries of the Ancient Goddess - ROBERT SEPEHR



Before Christianity existed, there was what is now commonly known as Paganism, which is also called Polytheism, the belief or worship of more than one God. Tritheism is a word that comes from the Greek, meaning 'Three Divinity', and in antiquity, as well as in certain forms of Neopaganism, the Triple Goddess is a deity or archetype viewed as a triunity of three distinct aspects or figures united in one being.

Various triune or triple goddesses were commonly seen in ancient, or pre-Christian, religion. The details of the rites, ceremonies, and beliefs were kept secret due to persecution, and consistently preserved from antiquity. As their core teaching became unacceptable, the Goddess teachings became the “Mysteries”.

Prehistoric Hobbit Village Discovered - ROBERT SEPEHR




Much of the real Irish, Scottish, and even British history has been lost and is no longer taught, but parts remain in European myths and legend. Long before Stonehenge, or most of the Egyptian pyramids were built, a thriving village existed in Scotland. One day, a farmer on the island of Orkney, found a large stone that didn’t look like it belonged in its environment. When the farmer flipped over the stone, he was shocked at what he discovered underneath, a hidden and lost village that existed over 5,000 years ago.

Forbidden Kingdoms of Inner Earth - ROBERT SEPEHR

According to certain Buddhist and Hindu traditions, secret tunnels connect Tibet with a subterranean paradise, and they call this legendary underworld Agartha or Shambhala. Mythologies throughout the world, from South America to the Arctic, describe numerous entrances to these fabled inner kingdoms. Many occult organizations, esoteric authors, and secret societies concur with these myths and legends of subterranean inhabitants, who are the remnants of antediluvian civilizations, which dwell in massive hollow caverns inside the earth.


Meaning "to weave" in Sanskrit, the term Tantra implies a set of spiritual practices that direct the universal energies into the practitioner, thereby leading to liberation from the physical level of existence. This and other occult spiritual techniques were said to have been practiced by the members of the Thule and Vril societies in Germany, led by the medium Maria Orsic who, in pre-WWII Germany, conducted research into psychic phenomenon, and advanced propulsion technology, including saucer-shaped aircraft known in ancient Sanskrit texts as vimanas.



They believed that many ancient civilizations owed their origins to refugees from Atlantis, and a people that dwelt inside of the earth, advancing the idea of a subterranean civilization ruled by an ancient parent-race who had mastered free energy they called Vril, but is also known as Chi, Ki, Prana, Orgone, and Aether. This Aryan breakaway civilization was said to have survived the antediluvian cataclysms which ended the ice age and continued to thrive below the surface of the Earth such as Antarctica.

Atlantis and Antediluvian Anthropology - ROBERT SEPEHR



Over 2,000 years ago, a wise Egyptian priest named Sonchis told a respected Greek statesman, Solon, about a spectacular legend recorded on stone, translated to Greek from ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, about powerful sea-faring empires, massive global cataclysms, and a great war of the Titans. Ancient Bloodlines and Antediluvian Civilizations https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhjVU00jqUM Atlantis was the island said to have existed in the Atlantic ocean, probably located near the present day Azores islands, mentioned in Plato's works Timaeus and Critias, a story in which Athens repels the Atlantean invasion of the Mediterranean, Europe, and North Africa.

Ancient Origins of Fairy Tales - ROBERT SEPEHR



Enchanted forests are described in the oldest folklore from regions where forests are common, and are often eluded to as a place of magic and danger, a location beyond where people normally travel, where strange things might occur, and strange people might live. Monsters, Witches, Fairies, Dragons, Dwarfs, Elves, Giants, Gnomes, Trolls, Unicorns, and other mythical creatures are depicted in books of fantasy for centuries, but who's oral tradition go all the way back to prehistory. Hidden History of the Holocene https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ragF5M7Z01E Collective Amnesia and the Diffusion of Civilization https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsZNhY2ZhHU In a new study published in the journal Royal Society Open Science, a folklorist and anthropologist say that popular stories and fairy tales are much older than originally thought. Instead of dating from the 1500's, the researchers say that some of these classic stories date back many millennia. The findings seem to confirm the long-disregarded theory of fairy tale writer Wilhelm Grimm, who thought that all Indo-European cultures shared common tales, older than the earliest literary records, going back into the bronze age, back to when Eastern and Western Indo-European languages split, more than 5,000 years ago.

Iran Land of the Ancient Aryans - ROBERT SEPEHR



The Achaemenid, or the First Persian Empire, was founded by Cyrus the Great in 550 BC, and extended from Eastern Europe in the west to the Indus valley. It was larger than any previous known empire in history, building road systems, postal systems, and showing its citizens a lot of religious tolerance.


In Iran, located on Mount Behistun, which means 'place where the gods dwell', four similar tombs are cut into the stone cliffs, as well as an inscription by Darius the Great, which was crucial to the decipherment of cuneiform script, as the inscription includes three versions of the same text, written in three different cuneiform script languages: Elamite, Babylonian, and Old Persian. The inscription is to cuneiform, what the Rosetta Stone is to Egyptian hieroglyphs: the document most crucial in the decipherment of a previously lost script.

Ancient Tomb Discovered Below Roman Forum - ROBERT SEPEHR



Archaeologists have uncovered an area devoted to the first King of Rome and a rock sarcophagus, which are believed to date back to the 6th century BC. The underground temple is buried beneath the entrance stairway to the Senate building where Roman senators voted. The shrine has a Greek inscription referring to how the sacred ground must not be disturbed.


In Roman mythology, Romulus and his twin brother Remus were left in a basket on the River Tiber. The pair survived, and a she-wolf found the twins at the the base of a fig tree after their mother was forced to abandon them. The wolf cared for the boys and raised them, letting them suckle on her. Romulus later killed his brother Remus in a fight on what became Palatine Hill in 753 BC, and became the first King of Rome.

Bearded Gods of Ancient Peru - ROBERT SEPEHR


Almost all native tribes in the Western Hemisphere preserve oral traditions about the ancient appearance of a bearded god or gods who arrived, or emerged, in ancient times. Quetzalcoatl to the Aztec, Kukulkan to the Maya, but some of the most interesting versions of this widespread tradition comes from Peru, where this legendary deity is known as Kon Tiki Viracocha, as documented by numerous highly acclaimed Peruvian historians, who when considered together, give us a reasonably detailed description of the traditional hero’s physical appearance, personality, and activities among the ancestors of the Andean Indians of the Inca empire.

Augustus Le Plongeon was a photographer, archeologist and author who studied the pre-Colombian ruins of America, particularly those of the Maya civilization on the northern Yucatan Peninsula. While his dating and translations were criticized, and he was shunned by most of mainstream academia, his research influenced many authors, such as Helena Blavatsky, Manly P.

5 Epic Viking Stories - ROBERT SEPEHR

The Viking Age, the period of great Scandinavian expansion from the late 8th to the late 11th century – is normally associated with violent raids and warfare. But in fact, Viking people were highly civilized, and greatly valued the arts – especially storytelling, about ancient myths, heroic legends, folk tales, and family and local histories.




These stories circulated orally, often in the form of epic poems, usually passed on through successive generations, but many were written down in the 13th century, mainly by scholars in Iceland, which today form the basis of much of what we know about ancient Norse myths and legends, Sagas which are supposedly based on true stories of real Viking Age people.

The Legend of Beowulf - ROBERT SEPEHR



One of the most important works of Old English literature, Beowulf is an epic poem consisting of over 3,000 lines, beautifully written in alliterative verse. Set in Scandinavia, Beowulf was the hero of a northern Germanic tribe, in what is now southern Sweden, who comes to the aid of a Danish king, who came under attack by Grendel, a descendant of the Biblical Cain. After Beowulf slays him with his bare hands, Grendel's mother also launches an attack, but is also defeated with a giant's sword that he found.


Victorious, Beowulf goes home to Sweden, and becomes king of a sect of sea-faring Goths, called Geats. Before the consolidation of Sweden, they were politically independent of the Swedes, and have now disappeared into legend and history. 50 years after becoming a Geatish king, Beowulf finds his realm terrorized by a dragon, who he then defeats, but is mortally wounded in the battle. After his death, his attendants cremate his body and erect a tower in his memory.


Written sometime after the year 700, the full story survives in the manuscript known as the Nowell Codex, now housed in the British Library.. It has no title in the original manuscript, but has become known by the name of the story's hero. But besides being an entertaining story, with great battles with monsters and dragons, could these be metaphors for actual events pertaining to historic wars grounded in truth?

Eastern European Culture and Mythology - ROBERT SEPEHR

Samodivas are woodland fairies found in South and West Slavic folklore and mythology, commonly depicted as ethereal maidens with long hair, and in some cases, wings. In Macedonian folklore, they were said to inhabit oak or willow trees, and in Romanian mythology they are known as Iele, with great seductive power over men, and magic skills and attributes similar to nymphs found in Greek mythology, sometimes reported to have been seen bathing in the springs or at crossroads.



Another important aspect of the Balkan myths surrounding Samodivas is their dance, with similarities to ancient Thracian and Greek legends, which included songs and dances performed by fire-priestesses.

Goddess of the Underworld - ROBERT SEPEHR

In Greek mythology, the underworld is where souls go after death. The original Greek idea of afterlife is that, at the moment of death, the soul is separated from the corpse, taking on the shape of the former person, and is transported to the entrance of the underworld.

European Pre-History and the Oera Linda Book - ROBERT SEPEHR

The Frisians are a Germanic ethnic group indigenous to the coastal parts of the Netherlands, Scandinavia, and northwestern Germany. The Oera Linda Book is a manuscript written in a form of Old Frisian, purporting to cover historical, mythological, and religious themes of remote antiquity. The text alleges that Europe was for a large part of their history, ruled by a succession of folk-mothers presiding over a hierarchical order of celibate priestesses dedicated to the goddess Freya. Kulning is an ancient Frisian herding call that was used by women long ago to call home the cows and goats back to the farm in the evenings.
