***Tunnelmania***

Over the past few years stories and rumors about government underground
tunnels, bases and cities have dominated much of the talk and energy of
those of us seeking the truth about things our government and others
seem to work very hard to keep secret.

Probably Richard Sauder presented the best research into these matters
in his well written book Underground Bases and Tunnels: What is the
Government Trying to Hide? (1993). This book is a must read for anyone
interested in the subject.

However, each time I read something on these underground activities one
question keeps coming to my mind. Why aren't these modern researchers
looking at the connections between today's top-secret goings on and the
tunnels that have existed inside our earth since before written history?
Many of today's reported underground activities seem to be centered
around some of the same areas that ancient excavations are known to be
located. For instance, in and around White Sands New Mexico and the
"Four Corners" area of the country. Before we go too far into this
aspect of the mystery we'll have to study a little of the true history
of the Americas.

***A Historical Perspective***

Containment of the population is the important ingredient in total
control. It is natural for people to migrate to new lands seeking a
better life for their families. Unfortunately, for those who would
control us this natural migration delays the master plan of a One World
Order. This is well known by the elitist and for centuries, through
their control of the top echelon in secret societies, education and
religious sects they were able to keep the true makeup of our earth a
secret from the common men and women.

In early times this was accomplished by leading the masses into
believing that the earth was flat. They warned that if anyone tried to
leave the known world they would fall off the edge, or worst yet, meet
up with horrible monsters that would maul them and eat them. Prior to
1492 the secret societies and financial controllers of the Old World had
no trouble hiding the truth about the true makeup of our planet. Two
things changed all that. The Queen of Spain was greedy. And Christopher
Columbus had the gift of gab. Columbus talked Isabelle into defying the
other elitist and financing a trip to explore the secret lands and
return with tons of wealth. With the so-called "discovery of the New
World" the keepers of the secrets had a lot of problems. One being the
civilized people of the Americas knew and understood about the Inner
lands and its inhabitants, our Co-Planetarians. The cover-up (no pun
intended) started right away.

***The Book Burners***

The first people allowed into the new word were religious teachers.
Under the guise of converting the heathens to Christianity, groups such
as the Jesuits main objective was to destroy any records, books etc.
they located. The excuse was to rid the savages of their superstitions
and belief in "false gods." One of the first big lies in the conspiracy
is still believed by many of us today. We have been taught to believe
that the Meso-Americans, the first Americans, had no books. No written
records of they're history and accomplishments. This is simply not true.

In Ancient America, in Notes of America Archeology (1872) by John H.
Baldwin, A.M., he wrote:

"If a conservative history of the ancient people of Central America and
Mexico were ever written, it has been lost. The ruins show that they had
the art of writing. the inscriptions of Palenque and the characters used
in some of the manuscript books that have been preserved are not the
same as the Mexican Picture Writing, though they had no writing like
ours they had their symbols and characters through which they understood
everything; and they had great books, which were composed with such
ingenuity and art that our characters were really of no assistance to
them. Our Priests have seen these books and I myself have seen them
likewise. Books such as these must have contained important information.
The older books belonging to the age of Copan and Paling went to decay
doubtless long previous to this time. The later books, not otherwise
lost, were destroyed by Aztec and Spanish vandalism."

Mr. Baldwin continues;

"The Aztec or Mexican sovereign Ytzcoatl destroyed many of the old
Toltec books. His aim was probably to exterminate among the people all
memory of the previous times. We learn from Spanish writers that a
still greater destruction of the old books was effected by the more
ignorant and fanatical of the Spanish priest who were established in the
country as missionaries after the conquest. There is record of a great
conflagration, under the asepses of Bishop Zumarraga, in which a vast
collection of these writings was consumed. As the writing was all of
paper (which had long been used in the country) the burning was easily
accomplished. The Franciscan and Dominican fanatics, whose learning and
religion consisted of ignorance and bigotry, hoped to exterminate among
the people all recollection of their former history, ideas and religious
customs." (Pages 188, 189).

Very few of these books were saved. However I found a passage in The
Civilization of Ancient Mexico (1912) by Lewis Spence to be very thought
provoking to say the least. Mr. Spence reports that in the Vatican there
is a book that was brought from Mexico. "Manuscript No. 3773, is a
species of religious handbook, representing the journey after death
through the underground." (Page 21) Out of all of the books put to torch
by the Christian Priests why was this book about the Ancient American's
beliefs concerning the Inner World brought safely back to the Vatican?
Next time you 're in Rome ask the Pope.

But it isn't all gloom and doom. In Mr. Baldwin's already quoted book
Ancient America I found a passage that could be viewed as a ray of hope.

"Humbolt mentions books of hieroglyphic writing found among the Panoes
on the River Ucayali, [in Peru] which were "bundles of their paper
resembling our volumes of the quarto. A Franciscan missionary found an
old man sitting at the foot of a palm-tree and reading one of the books
to several young persons. The Franciscan was told that the writing
"contained hidden things which no stranger ought to know."" (Pages 255,
256)

Hopefully these books were hidden away somewhere. Possibly in an
underground vault? At any rate, while destroying any possible written
information that would help us in our quest for the truth, the
keepers-of-the-secrets still had a big problem. Oral History. We'll
return to this thought later on in this report.

***More Historical Dis-Information***

Another false piece of "history" being taught in our controlled school
systems today is the is that all of the "wild" Indians of North America,
and if fact the peoples of Mexico, Central and South America, arrived
here by crossing "a land bridge" which connected Asia with Alaska across
the Bering Straight following the last ice age. The theory being that
all the people found in the extended NAFTA area of the globe (as
envisioned by our friends over at the Trilateral Commission) migrated
across this land bridge.

As Paul Harvey would say, But now, for the rest of the story.

A couple of interesting statements found in the already quoted 1912
scholastic work The Civilization of Ancient Mexico by Lewis Spence;
"The area covered by the ancient Nahuan or Mexican race, both in its
fluctuant and settled conditions, extended in its utmost limits from
British Columbia in the North to Costa Rica in the south." (Page 2).

"But the most important aboriginal population of Mexico was that of the
Otomi, who still occupy the plateau of the Guanajuato and Queretaro, and
who, after the advent of the Naphua races, probably peopled the entire
Mexican plateau. Their language is of the type known as "incorporative"
that is, one word embraces several, and appears to have some affinity to
the Athapascan Dialect of British North America" (Page 4)

So far so good. These statements seem to support a migration of the
ancient people of Mexico from the north. Until you read this curious
statement further into his report.

"The Totonacs and Chontals were in all likelihood allied to tribes
dwelling to the south-east of the Yucatan peninsula who spoke a similar
language, and their migration to the lands they occupied was possible
effected from South to North by way of the Mexican Gulf." (Page 4)

As Vincent H. Gaddis wrote in his book Native American Myths & Mysteries
revised (1991);

"Migration by the Bering Sea Strait (or land bridge during glaciation
periods when sea levels were lower) has been a theoretical scared cow to
many anthropologists, but it does not explain the origin of all native
people in America. As for the Bering Straits migrants eventually
reaching the far destination of Tierra del Fuego, what has their
incentive? There was no population pressure. About the time Columbus
arrived on the scene, it is estimated there were 15 million people
living in the Americas, with about one million or less in what is now
the United States and Southern Canada. During the last glaciation there
was an ice-free area just of the east of the Rocky Mountains and other
areas to the south. At worst, ice age man would have had to go no
further than modern Mexico.

"Nevertheless, the oldest and most advanced civilizations were in South
America. [In fact the further south you go the more elaborate the ruins
of these ancient people. DGC.] A vast antiquity here is evident in the
ruins under lave flows and at Lake Titicaca. Here the mysteries of
countless ages await the study of skilled minds, and Latin American
scientists who have led in the research are appalled at their own
ignorance. And the trail of the totems is northward." (Page 7)

Is it possible that some people migrated from the South to the North?
John Baldwin in Ancient America explored just such an unorthodox view.

Mr. Baldwin wrote;

"One of the most learned writers on American antiquities, a Frenchman,
speaking of discoveries in Peru, exclaims, "America is to be again
discovered! We must remove the veil in which Spanish politics has sought
to bury its ancient civilization." (Page 13)

"Remains of ancient civilizations, differing to some extent in degrees
and character, are found in three great sections of the America
continent; the west side of South America, between Chili and the first
or second degree of latitude; Central America and Mexico; and the
valleys of the Mississippi and the Ohio. These regions have all been
explored to some extent . not completely, but sufficiently to show the
significance and importance if their archaeological remains, most of
which were already mysterious antiquities when the continent was
discovered by Columbus." (Page 14)

Mr. Baldwin tells us;

"An Ancient and unknown people left remains of settled life, and of a
certain degree of civilization, in the valleys of the Mississippi and
its tributaries. We have no authentic name for them either as a nation
or as a race; therefore they are know as "Mound Builders," this name
having been suggested by an important class of their works." (Page 17)

***America's Ancient People***

According to research by Robert Silverburg as reported by him in his
1978 book on the subject, The Mound Builders, there were tens of
thousands of different sized mounds across the eastern half of North
America, and "each [new American] townsite had its mounds, and generally
each town had its antiquarian who studied them before they were swept
away by progress." (Page 24).

Baldwin's description of the ancient mounds comes from first hand
knowledge. Many were still prevalent around the North American
countryside in 1872 when he published his unprecedented historical
research book, Ancient America;

"Prominent among the remains by which we know that such people once
inhabited that region are artificial mounds constructed with
intelligence and great labor. Most of them are usually square or
rectangular, but some times hexagonal or octagonal, and the higher
mounds appear to have been constructed with winding staircases on the
outside leading to their summits" (Page 10)

Baldwin concludes;

"I find it most reasonable to believe that the mounds found in this part
of the continent were used precisely as similar structures were used in
Mexico and Central America. The lower mounds, or most of them, must have
been constructed as foundations of the more important edifices of the
mound-building people. Many of the great buildings erected on such
pyramidal foundations, at Palengue, Uxmal and elsewhere in the region,
have not disappeared, because they were built of hewn stone laid in
mortar. For reasons not difficult to understand, the mound builders,
beginning their works on the lower Mississippi constructing such
edifices of wood or some other perishable material; therefore no trace
of them remains. The higher mounds with broad, flat summits, reached by
flights of stairs on the outside, are like the Mexican teocallis, or
temples. In Mexico and Central America these structures were very
numerous. They are described as solid pyramidal masses of earth, cased
with brick and stone, level at the top, and furnished with ascending
ranges of steps on the outside. The resemblance is striking, and the
most reasonable explanation seems to be that in both regions mounds of
this class were intended for the same used." (Page 18-19)

Mr. Baldwin continues to provide convincing evidence that the ancient
people in North America had common ties with their brothers in the
south. One of the most convincing connections is in the design in Adams
County Ohio known as The Great Serpent Mound. Mr. Baldwin explains:

"No symbolic device is more common among the antiquities of Mexico and
Central America than is more common among the antiquities of Mexico and
Central America than the form of the serpent, and it was sometimes
reproduced in part in architectural constructions. One of the old books
giving account of a temple dedicated to Quetzalcohuatl says, "It was
circular in form, and the entrance represented the mouth of a serpent,
opening in a frightful manner, and extremely terrifying to those who
approached it for the first time." (Page 28)

I could not have described the Great Serpent Mound of Adams County Ohio
any better. What do you think?

Baldwin's 300-page book presents good hard evidence that not only was
there a migration from the north, but that an entirely different group
of people came from the south. And he isn't the only authority that felt
that way in the days before the controllers took control over what was
to be accepted history and science. Robert Silverburg tells us of
another respected researcher of the time.

[A] "Brilliant analysis of the mounds was produced by Albert Gallatin
(1761-1849), the Swiss-born economist who was Thomas Jefferson's
Secretary of the Treasury. After a long career in public office,
Gallatin had become a banker in 1827 and in his later years concerned
himself largely with the study of American Indians. In 1836 he published
an important work on the Indians, and six years later he founded and
became the first president of the American Ethnological Society. His
final contribution to his chosen science was a pioneering essay on
American languages, published in 1848, when he was 87 years old.

"The large flat-topped mounds of which the Cahokia Mound near East St.
Louis, Illinois was then the best known example." struck Gallatin as
having "a strong family likeness to the Mexican pyramids." The earthen
ramparts and embankments of Ohio puzzled him though, for they were
unlike any fortifications constructed by existing Indian tribes. This
led him to suggest that they were the work of a race different from
contemporary Indians, perhaps Influenced by the great civilizations of
Mexico.

"Gallatin did not think that the mound builders had migrated south to
Mexico to create those great civilizations. Instead, he felt that
Mexican ideas must have drifted northward and been adopted by the people
of the Mississippi valley." (Pages 40-41).

As Baldwin tells us in our major reference book for this portion of our
research:

"It has sometimes been assumed that the Aztecs came to Mexico from the
north, but there is nothing to warrant this assumption, nothing to make
it probable, nothing even to explain the fact that some persons have
entertained it. People of the ancient Mexico and Central American races
are not found further north than New Mexico and Arizona, where they are
known as Pueblos or Village Indians. In the old days there was a
frontier region, and the Pueblos seem to represent ancient settlers who
went there from the south. In fact, no people really like our wild
Indians of North America have ever been found in Mexico, Central
America, or South America. (Pages 217-218).

The findings of these well respected researchers seems to strongly
indicate that, as I seem to find time after time in my own research,
that we're not being made privy to the full truth. So far in this
research report I've presented a magnitude of evidence supporting a
migration of some of Americas ancient people from south to north. If
this is so, the next obvious question is: "From where in the south did
these people originate?"

***The Native American and His-Story***

The undisputed truth of history is that in the far southern areas of the
Americas, not only were the books destroyed, but also the people were
massacred. But the controllers still had a problem. A big problem. The
ruins were too massive to destroy. They stand today as a silent monument
to hidden truths. In the north they had no such problem, most of the
easily destroyed mounds were plowed under or concreted over. However, as
hard as they tried they were not able to wipe out the "savages" and the
secrets they knew. This brings us back to the oral history of these true
Americans.

The controllers, after failing in the genocide of the red man, next
tried to destroy their tight family ties. First by removing them from
their traditional lands and placing them on the worst land in the
country, then by flooding the reservations with booze. And finally by
enticing the young to become part of the "white mans' system. This was
all done to try and remove the ancient oral knowledge from being passed
on from old to young as it had since time began for these people. In far
too many cases it's worked. But thanks to a few brave historians, much
of the tribal knowledge has been preserved. Of course the
"establishment" would have us believe that this oral history is nothing
more than myths and fables. But one thing doesn't wash. I personally
find it hard to believe that generations of people worked so hard to
preserve fiction, especially people, who historically have proven that
they hold such a high regard for the truth.

***Descendents of Subterranean Dwellers? ***

In legends & Lore of the American Indians (1993) edited by Terri Harden
we find;

"Several tribes claim to have emerged from the interior of the earth.
The Oneidas point to a hill near the falls of Oswego River, N.Y. as
their birthplace; the Witchitas rose from the rocks around Red River;
the Creeks from a knoll in the valley of Big Black River in the Natchez
area, where dwelt the Master of Breath; the Aztecs were one of seven
tribes that came out from the seven caverns of Aztlan and the Navajos
believe that they emerged at a place known to them in the Navajo
Mountains." (Page 299)

On page 152 we find that "the Mandan tribes of the Sioux suppose that
their nation lived in a subterranean village near a vast lake." The Zuni
believe that, "in the old days all men lived in caves in the center of
the earth. There were four caves, one over the other. Men first lived in
the lowest cave. It was dark. There was no light, and the cave was
crowded. All men were full of sorrow." (Page 268). Through several
misadventures they finally reached the exterior of the earth.

According to the Pawnee story of creation, "All living things were under
the ground in confusion and asked one another what each was; but one day
as the mole was digging around, he broke a hole through, so that the
light steamed in, and he drew back frightened. He has never had any eyes
since; the light put them out. The mole did not want to come out, but
all the others came out on to the earth through the hole the mole had
made." (Page 123).

Another good source of this ancient knowledge is Native American Legends
(1987) compiled and edited by George E. Lankford. On page 113 he tells
us;

"What Chekilli, the head chief of the lower and upper Creeks [Indian
tribes] said in a talk held in Savannah [Georgia] in 1735, and which was
handed over by the interpreter . word for word, as follows: "At a
certain time the earth opened in the west, where it's mouth is. The
earth opened and the Kasihtas [Creeks] came out .""

And on and on, tribe after tribe. Stories of their ancient ancestors
emerging from subterranean lands in one way or the other seems to be a
common one. Could these separate histories, which all jell into the same
fact, be true?

Could some of the ancient Americans actually have come from under the
ground we walk on? We'll pursue this further in my next report.
