Arcadia Discussion Zone

I've linked below to a really interesting Philip Coppens article, taken from his website, about an underground structure in Malta, which is well worth reading.

http://www.philipcoppens.com/hypogeum.html

The whole piece is very intriguing, but what particularly caught my eye was the account towards the end by one Lois Jessup, an American lady, who took part in an excursion into these tunnels in the 1920s, and claimed to have seen several very large humanoid type creatures wandering around down there, and who beckoned to her.

A small piece of associated material I found is posted below.

I appreciate that giant legends are likely not to many people's taste, in which case apologies for the distraction. But there are giant legends in the Pyrenees as well, so there is a connection to the main theme of this Forum. Also, given the discussions that have been going on recently about subterranean worlds, the geology around Rennes-le-Chateau, earthquakes, etc. I though this might have some relevance.

The article's a good read in any event, so I hope others derive as much interest from it as I did.

How sad is this? Responding to one's own hitherto unanswered thread, weeks after the event.

Anyway, a number of people read the posting above (or at least opened it), and I don't think it necessarily warrants a discussion, but as I am quite interested in Malta (I have a very slight family connection to the island) I did some more searching around, and came up with the series of articles in the link I've posted below.

Of most interest was another piece by Philip Coppens called "Island of the Giants" which considers, amongst other things, the notion of Malta being an important ancient site for solar worship.

Not quite as interesting as subterranean giant legends, in my view, but still of interest, and with some degree of connectivity to other matters under discussion - including skulls, in one of the other articles.

So have a read, if you like.

Sorry 'bout not replying to your previous post.....I think everyone read it or in my case re-read it as I'd seen the original article before.Your second link was highly interesting...and it set me off searching and as usual I got side tracked into the spoky side of it....which led me on to something else, as you do.

I'm just about to get settled down to reading your newest link.
Go ahead though, and write about subterranean giant legends I find it intriguing and it could generate a lot of interest.

Thanks.

Sorry this place is important but has got lost with all the other ARINGAROSA on this forum. I only just saw this thread. At the moment I'm busy updating my websites and only have a short period to stick in my twopennyworth.

As you probably know these caves involves stories of ritual human sacrifice, a subject that I have mentioned before on this forum.

This, according to certain sources, was the subterranean passage and chamber which was referred to years ago in an article which appeared in the August, 1940 issue of the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC Magazine. The article stated the following concerning several people who disappeared in these catacombs without a trace:



I understand that still to this day these have never been found.

Thanks Roscoe
Don't you get the feeling that these subterranean chambers are all over the world

Similar mysterious tunnels honeycomb Brazil. Brazil in the West and Tibet in the East seem to be the two parts of the Earth where contact between the Subterranean World and the surface world may be most easily achieved, due to the existence of these tunnels.

It is claimed that the earth’s crust is honeycombed by a network of tunnels passing under the ocean from continent to continent and leading to subterranean cities in large cavities in the earth. These tunnels are especially abundant in South America, especially under Brazil, which was the chief center of Atlantean colonization; and we may believe they were constructed by the Atlanteans. Most famous of these tunnels is the "Roadway of the Incas" which stretches for several hundred miles south of Lima, Peru, and passes under Cuzco, Tiahuanaco and the Three Peaks, proceeding to the Atacambo Desert. Another branch opens in Arica, Chile, visited by Madame Blavatsky.

It makes you wonder if under Rennes they are going to find a huge tunnel system
