6,000-Year-Old Temple Unearthed in Ukraine
Sci-News ^ | October 22, 2014

Posted on 12/28/2014 4:38:03 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

A team of archaeologists led by Dr Mykhailo Videiko of the Kyiv Institute of Archaeology has discovered the remains of a 6,000-year-old temple at a Trypillian culture village near modern-day Nebelivka, Ukraine.

Trypillian culture derives its name from the village of Trypillia in Kyiv region, Ukraine, where artifacts of this ancient civilization were first discovered in 1896.

Archeological excavations show that Trypillian people lived from about 5400 to 2700 BC on a vast area extending from the Carpathian piedmont, east to the Dnipro River, and south to the shores of the Black sea.

The culture is characterized by advanced agriculture, developed metallurgy, pottery-making, sophisticated architecture and social organization, including the first proto-cities on European soil.

Trypillian society was matriarchal, with women heading the household, doing agricultural work, and manufacturing pottery, textiles and clothing. Hunting, keeping domestic animals and making tools were the responsibilities of the men.

The most notable aspect of the Trypillian culture was the periodic destruction of settlements, with each single-habitation site having a roughly 60 to 80 year lifetime....

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

“Trypillian society was matriarchal, with women heading the household, doing agricultural work, and manufacturing pottery, textiles and clothing. Hunting, keeping domestic animals and making tools were the responsibilities of the men.”

That doesn’t sound “matriarchal” to me. The Trypillian women were in the kitchen, so to speak. Hardly the sign for a matriarchal society. Show me one advanced matriarchal society and I will show you historical revision and lies.

3,000 year old Ten Commandment monument chiseled into a mountain found in Los Lunas, NM

The Los Lunas Hebrew Inscription
By Jeff A. Benner


Los Lunas Inscription
Click image for larger picture

The above inscription is very unique for several reasons. First, it is written in an ancient Hebrew script. Second it is located near the small town of Los Lunas in the State of New Mexico, USA. Third, the inscription is of the "Ten Commandments".

Is this inscription an original or a fake. If it is original, this proves that a Semitic people, probably Hebrews, arrived in the Americas long before Columbus or the Vikings.

The above inscription cannot be a fake for the following reasons. The actual time of discovery of the inscription is not known but was known by the locals as far back as the 1850's. At that time, the script of the text was unknown and therefore undecipherable. It was not until this last century that the ancient Hebrew (paleo-Hebrew) script was discovered in the Near East. Once this ancient script was discovered the Los Lunas inscription could be deciphered and was found to be a copy of the "Ten Commandments".

Tell Dan Inscription

When we compare the script on the Los Lunas inscription with the above inscription found in 1993 at Tell Dan in the land of Israel, we find that the scripts are almost identical. Below is a comparison of the scripts from both inscriptions.

Script comparisons between the Tell Dan and Los Lunas Inscriptions

The Tel Dan inscription was written around 1000 BCE. Since the Los Lunas inscription uses the same script, it is safe to conclude that the Los Lunas inscription was written by a Hebrew people about 3,000 years ago. Other ancient Hebrew inscriptions have been found around the country including Tenessee and the Mississippi Valley. The "Archeological Outliers Homepage" includes other ancient Hebrew artifacts found in the United States. The article "Who Really Discovered America?" also includes some very interesting information on the Los Lunas inscriptions as well as other finds and includes a possible link between the Gold of Solomon and the Gold of Brazil.

“If it is original, this proves that a Semitic people, probably Hebrews, arrived in the Americas long before Columbus or the Vikings.”

Everybody knows that the Hebrews arrived in the Americas and occupied Palestinian and Muslim territories, eventually expelling them and taking over the land.

hate to break it to you and no matter how you want to deny it, the truth is, the Trypillian society WAS matriarchal.

Deal with it.

As real as the Heavner Runestones in Oklahoma!

There were quite a few Jews in New Mexico in the 1870s as the cemetery at Las vegas shows.

There are also several spots west of Trinidad Colorado with lots of carvings, none ancient.

Not exactly. The Babylonian Talmud has several discussions of the ancient script. It is speculation that it couldn't be understood, doubtful speculation, as there are examples discussed where both scripts are used. Since there's always been a "Rosetta stone" for it, it's highly unlikely it was unknown.

The comment about the houses being deliberately destoyed ever 60-80 years is interesting. How do they know that it didn’t just happen that a fire started in one dwelling, and burned down all the rest? That would necessitate the re-construction of the entire village. I’m sure firefighting capabilities were not that advanced, at that time.

I suspect a good reason for them to periodically burn down everything was primitive sanitation, though they probably didn’t think that. 60-80 years is about the maximum lifespan of the oldest person in the settlement, of those who were born about the time of the last burning.

For the benefit of learning, can you present your statement with supportive explanation, if not evidence?

I am from the Trinidad area. I have been in several overhangs on the Purgatory in the canyon and have seen several drawings on the walls.

Not saying that wiki is correct but here iw what they say about it
Some scholars have used the abundance of these clay female fetish statues to base the theory that this culture was matriarchal in nature. Indeed, it was partially the archeological evidence from Cucuteni-Trypillian culture that inspired Marija Gimbutas, Joseph Campbell, and some latter 20th century feminists to set forth the popular theory of an Old European culture of peaceful, matriarchal, Goddess-centered Neolithic European societies that were wiped out by patriarchal, Sky Father-worshipping, warlike, Bronze-Age Proto-Indo-European tribes that swept out of The Steppes east of the Black Sea. This theory has been mostly discredited in recent years,[23] but there are still some people who adhere to it, at least to some degree.
