The Reality Of Slavery

John Stossel reports schools teach children that America was the worst when it comes to slavery. But Wilfred Reilly, author of  Lies My Liberal Teacher Taught Me says that’s just not true.

“Slavery around the world, was slavery,” Reilly said. He believes it’s better to teach the truth, which is almost every society had slavery, including the Aztecs, Persians, Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Vikings, and most of all, the Islamic world.

Stossel says American slavery was horrible. But it wasn’t unique. Here’s more.

Otzi Revisionist Propaganda

Styxhexenhammer666 examines instance of revisionist propaganda and anthropology. We have Otzi the Iceman, who anthropologists described as small and dark. Some interpreted that to mean he was African, but now it’s becoming clear he more likely hailed from southern Europe.  Says Styx, “He was dark- yes, as he was likely central Italian.”

Also, how did Islamic rings make it into Viking burials? Did Islamic individuals live with the Vikings? Or were these merely trinkets found or bartered?

Lost Children Of Hercules

Herodotus, perhaps the most renowned Greek historian, believed the Greek religion was mostly an Egyptian import. The Spartans, it’s believed, emigrated to Greece from Egypt. They introduced keynote numbers, including three, seven and 12 — all of which later appeared in prominent places within the Bible.

Here, we’re introduced to the strong men Hercules and Samson, who shared many traits, including a love for beautiful but dangerous women. But this goes much deeper, showing how the Israelite tribe of Dan extended its influence over the Vikings in the North and the Druids or ancient Celts found in the vicinity of Ireland. It’s the work of Robert Sepehr, author and anthropologist.

White Giants Of The New World

Rober Sepehr, author and anthropologist, introduces us to the legend of the Phoenix, early mystics and the land of Phoenicia. These places, seers and symbols have a connection to Christianity, as they serve to embody the Resurrection. But they also bear a relationship to the palm tree, and to various ancient gods, including Adonis in Greek mythology and older gods from Sumeria.  The red-plumed Phoenix was revered as well in ancient China and Korea.

This tale takes us to the founding of Carthage, which later battled with Rome. Ancient DNA studies show, though, that the Phoenicians from Carthage shared a European heritage with the Romans. Phoenician symbols turned up in Viking lore, and also appeared across present-day Great Britain. These symbols even surfaced in early North America, notably at Mystery Hill in New Hampshire. Native tribesmen across North America have tales and legends of giants that once traversed the New World. How might the Phoenicians figure into these stories and legends?

Vikings Reached South America

Academic historians generally do not admit to the presence of European visitors to South America until after the arrival of Christopher Columbus. Not many people have heard of this possibility because the archaeological research supporting it was conducted around the time of the second world war and went against the post-WW2 political narrative.

Erik Thorvaldsson, known as Erik the Red, was a Norwegian Viking, remembered in medieval and Icelandic saga sources as having founded the first Norse settlement in Greenland. His son, Leif Erikson was credited as the first known European to have discovered North America.

The Maritime Archaic is a North American cultural complex along the coast of Newfoundland and surrounding area, with at least three settlement episodes by distinct cultural groups, that began in approximately 7000 BC, also known as the Red Paint People because of the use of red ochre on their elaborate burials.

Norse Vikings In Greenland

Erik Thorvaldsson, known as Erik the Red, was a Norwegian Viking, remembered in medieval and Icelandic saga sources as having founded the first Norse settlement in Greenland. His son, Leif Erikson was credited as the first known European to have discovered North America. Studies have found that almost all ivory traded throughout Europe in Medieval times came from Greenland walruses, which became extinct due to over hunting, contributing to the abandonment of Viking settlements.

Pirates of the Bronze Age

The Hyksos were a Semitic people, possibly from Western Asia, who settled in the eastern Nile Delta some time before 1650 BC. The arrival of the Hyksos led to the end of the Thirteenth Dynasty and initiated the Second Intermediate Period of Egypt. The Phoenicians went to Cornwall for its tin, Michigan for its copper, and combined them to usher in the Bronze Age. The Vikings were Norse seafarers, settling around the present day nations of Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Here’s the latest in the long series of fascinating Old World studies from Robert Sepehr, author, producer and independent anthropologist.

The Tribe of Dan

To the Germans, he was known as Votan. To the Anglo-Saxons Woden. To the Norse and other Scandinavians, he was known as Odin. A Reuters News Agency report from Nov. 30, 2001: “The Viking god Odin may have been a real king who lived in what is now southern Russia 2,000 years ago, Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl said in a controversial new book on Thursday.

In The Hunt for Odin, Heyerdahl says his archaeological digs by the Sea of Azov in Russia backed evidence in 13th century sagas, written by Snorre Sturlason, that Odin was more than a myth. Odin was a king who lived around Azov before being driven out by the Romans and taking his followers to Sweden. Ancient metal belt holders, rings and armbands dating from 100-200 AD found in excavations around the mouth of the Don River were almost identical to Viking equivalents found in Gotland, Sweden, some 800 years later, he said.
