Ancient Mysteries

In the Alterran Legacy Series at the end of Book 2, Khamlok, The Alterrans commence construction of a new colony at Baalbek. The ruins of Baalbek can be found at the eastern edge of Lebonon. How could megalithic Earthlings have moved 5-ton stones like this?

In THE ALTERRAN LEGACY SERIES (COLONY EARTH, KHAMLOK, and soon to come RESURRECTION), the ancient people who colonize Earth come from the Pleiades, also known as the Seven Sisters. The star cluster is best viewed in November from virtually any point on Earth, from dust to dawn, near the constellation Orion. The Pleiades was important to many ancient people. For example, Halloween originates from an old Druid rite that coincided with midnight culmination of the Pleiades cluster. It was believed that the veil dividing  the living from the dead is at its thinnest when the Pleaides culminates - reaches its highest point in the sky - at midnight.

Ancient Aliens

The new Ancient Aliens episode broadcast on September 30th on the History Channel was devoted to the importance of the number three in diverse mythologies. The Alterrans in the Alterran Legacy Series incorporate the sacred triangle as their salute. As explained in Colony Earth, to symbolize their passion for associating with the quantum elements of the universe, the ruling House of En adopted an insignia in the shape of isosceles triangle to represent a fundamental fractal formation. In upcoming installments, En.Lil will search for the meaning of the time wave connection between Alterra+Earth+the spirit world.

The Alterrans who colonized Earth in Sumerian times are ruled by a single family. This wasn’t always the case. Long ago, they had a civilization like ours, with slightly more advanced technology.  One step leading to global dictatorship was the disruption in the educational system.  When all knowledge could be held in a palm device and downloaded directly into the brain through the Teacher, the educational system became obsolete. All knowledge, that is, until the ruling family began to assign permissible Teacher programs by the rank assigned to each Alterran at birth. 

Could this happen to Earth?

In Colony earth, the Alterrans' fate is sealed when thee colony is damaged by a comet. Here is the latest research proving that the comet existed and caused the subsequent cool period on Earth known as the Younger Dryas.

Dear Readers, through my blog, I hope to bring you links to scientific, social, political or economic develops that mirror the historical path taken by the Alterrans in The Alterran Legacy Series.
This post concerns telepathy through implants. In Colony Earth, Lil and selected guardsmen are fitted with implants that permit them to communicate telepathically. They refer to it mencomm. The memcomm technology is actually an ancient technology that was banned because eons ago it was deployed by terrorists to highjack the minds of jet pilots, nuclear reactor operators, train conducts, and similar folks to plunge their world into darkness and chaos.Needing to survive on Earth, where his colonists are stranded. En.Lil breaks Alterran law to use mencomm so that his men will be able to communicate over long distances after their high tech devices lose power. In future series, En.Lil's mind will continue to evolve with his mencomm powers.
This technology is emerging in our present day. Here is a link to one of many experiments.

As usual, though, rat experiments have beat out the humans.

A scene in Colony Earth envisions the characters participating in a sacred procession along a well traveled avenue to a ceremony what is now Stonehenge. Today, it was announced that a recent excavation has uncovered the avenue to Stonehenge.
