Before the current re-writing of history, how much did we know?
Let’s take for a moment, the fantastic world written about by Robert E. Howard. Snow-covered mountainous clan life to desert caravans, across steppes to large city-states, even references to ‘old Khitai’.
Some would say, “Oh, that’s just the overactive imagination of a recluse in the wastelands of Texas.”
For a man who stayed home with a sickly mother, and never strayed far from home, to have all that come from within him, without one iota of information of the outside world, is for me, a very large stretch.
Now today, there is talk, though never truly revealed, that under all the ice, in all the places of the world, lies buried ancient cities. Why are they not discussed? Who are they protecting?
These 10 mysterious places do engage the mind, yes.
“From the times when the oceans drank Atlantis ...”
And, “In Xanadu did Kublai Khan a stately pleasure dome decree.”
Some imaginations can be very active.
