The underground world of secrets and legends of planet earth. How to find and complete Earth dungeons in Remnant: From the Ashes. Earth Dungeons with Bosses

Incredible facts

Many people have heard that people sometimes go to live in caves, abandoned mines or underground tunnels. In the literature you can often find stories about dungeon people. However, underground cities do not only exist in novels and films. They are very real.

Underground cities were built primarily for protection from enemies, wild animals, weather conditions and even for conducting illegal activities. find out about the most interesting underground cities in the world and interesting facts related to them.

1) Secret underground city in Beijing, China

Since 1969 and over the next decade by order Mao Tse-tung In Beijing, they began to build an underground emergency shelter for the government. This shelter stretches for a distance near Beijing 30 kilometers. Giant city was built during the Sino-Soviet split, and its sole purpose was protect yourself in case of war.

Entrance to Beijing Underground City

In that underground city there were shops, restaurants, schools, theaters, hairdressers and even a roller skating rink. In the city one could also find about thousands of bomb shelters, and it could simultaneously accommodate up to 40 percent residents of Beijing in case of war.

Tourists roam Beijing's underground streets today

There were rumors that houses in Beijing had secret hatches, which allowed residents to quickly descend into this underground complex in case of danger. In 2000, the giant underground city was officially opened to tourists, and some of its shelters are used as youth camps.

2) Putin's underground city Yamantau, Russia

Close to the ski resort "Abzakovo", 60 kilometers from Magnitogorsk, which is in the south of the Urals, according to some sources, is located secret underground city for members of the Russian government. The secret base is covered in many rumors and assumptions, including saying that this facility began to be built during the Cold War.

Ski resort "Abzakovo" Southern Urals, Russia

President Putin visits ski resort "Abzakovo" quite often, but he never answered questions about why this particular place attracts the president so much. Rumors spread that it was not skiing that was the main reason for coming, but construction of a secret underground city on Mount Yamantau.

They started talking about the city again in the 1990s in the American and other foreign press. Foreign journalists tried to find out at least some details from the officials, but their attempts were unsuccessful. It is very likely that the articles themselves were based more on rumors than on real facts.

3) Underground city near Moscow, Russia

Everyone knows that Moscow is all cut up underground tunnels, passages and subway buildings, which in Soviet times was considered the most beautiful, fastest and largest metro in the world. Much has changed today, but people still talk about mysteries of the underground city near Moscow- a series of underground bunkers built back in Soviet times, and maybe even earlier.

"Secret Subway" Moscow does exist and is intended primarily for military and government members in case of nuclear war or other dangerous situations. Secret lines connect major government facilities, including the Kremlin, the building of the Ministry of Defense and so on.

The secret metro lines, according to some very curious researchers of this issue, no different from the main lines. Why not connect some of these lines to the main lines, given how busy the Moscow metro is today? Apparently, there are reasons for this, and the underground city is waiting in the wings.

4) Rock town Setenil de las Bodegas, Spain

Unlike many others underground cities, this city in Spain lives a full life and accommodates about 3 thousand inhabitants. Some houses in this city are not completely underground, but carved into the rock, which makes the city landscapes especially unusual. The houses seem to be sunk in stones.

Thanks to such unusual buildings, the town attracts many tourists who come here to see unique cave houses. In distant times Ancient Rome the city served as a fortress.

5) Cave city Chufut-Kale, Crimea

This cave city, located in Crimea, was built back in the early Middle Ages, and although most of it turned into ruins, some ancient buildings still remained: caves, the mausoleum of the daughter of Khan Tokhtamysh, gates and others.

Entrances to the underground dwellings of the ghost town of Chufut-Kale

Initially they lived in the city Alans- Iranian-speaking tribes, later moved here Cumans, A in the 14th century they started flocking here Karaites, and by the time the Crimean Khanate was formed, most likely, they were the main inhabitants. At one time, the Khan of independent Crimea even lived permanently in Chufut-Kale. At the end of the 19th century the city was completely abandoned by its inhabitants.

6) Secret cellars of Moose Jaw gangsters, Canada

Underground cities were sometimes built not at all for protection during military conflicts, but for protection during harsh weather conditions. For example, the city of Moose Jaw in central Canada has a series of tunnels and underpasses that were built to keep workers warm. However, these underground premises very soon after construction began to be used for illegal purposes.

Moose Jaw Tunnels Favorite criminals, smugglers and bandits during Prohibition in the USA. The underground city turned into a mini Las Vegas and sheltered illegal establishments where casinos and prostitution flourished. They say that Chicago gangster Al Capone had a connection with these basements, so they began to be called "Chicago Connection".

Today, the Chicago Connection is a museum with an armory, a wine cellar and many interesting things from the times of the gangsters.

7) Mysterious City of the Gods in Egypt

Great Pyramids of Giza- the only miracle ancient world, which has come down to us. Many researchers believe that under the Giza plateau there is something incredible, namely series underground tunnels and cameras.

Beginning since 1978, researchers have begun to map the outline of a massive underground complex that could potentially be a massive underground city.

Known as "City of the Gods", this city still hides many secrets. Since it is located directly under one of the most important historical monuments in a world whose integrity no one will disturb, It is unlikely that these secrets will be easily revealed in the near future.

Opponents of the theory about the City of the Gods are convinced that there is no underground city under the pyramids, and the story about it was invented, to attract more tourists.

8) Underground Gem City Coober Pedy, Australia

Coober Pedy- a city that is still inhabited. It is located in the desert part of central Australia and is home to about 1600 inhabitants. The city is considered "the capital of disgrace", since more of this semi-precious stone is mined here than anywhere else on the planet.

Entrance to the Coober Pedy underground: it's hard to imagine what's hiding underground

The city is located underground houses - dugouts, which were dug to protect themselves from the scorching desert sun, as well as to protect children from wild dingoes and local aborigines.

Opal deposits were first discovered in Coober Pedy in 1915, since then these places have been inhabited by gem hunters. If you have opal jewelry, there is every chance that this the stone was brought from Australia, or rather, from the Coober Pedy mines. Underground you can find not only the homes of local residents, but also restaurants, shops and even a church and a cemetery!

9) Island city with underground restaurants Kish, Iran

In the dungeon Kish city in Iran hides a mysterious city that is so shrouded in mystery that it doesn't even have an official name. Some people call this city Kariz, however, tourists more often call it the Underground City of Kish. The underground premises have total area about 10 thousand square meters.

This dungeon is more than 2.5 thousand years old and was originally used as reservoir and water supply system. Like many other ancient cities, this city has been renovated and turned into a tourist attraction. Today you can find cozy underground restaurants, shops and other establishments here.

10) Burlington Underground Bunker, England

There is also a secret underground city in England, it is called Burlington. This city was built in the 1950s for the British government to provide shelter in the event of nuclear war. The dungeon is not very large - only a thousand square meters, but it could easily accommodate about 4 thousand people.

The city had underground routes, railway stations, hospitals and even an underground lake for storage drinking water. There was also a BBC station in the city so the Prime Minister could address those left at the top. Burlington is on standby right up to before 1991, after which the Cold War was over.

Which city has an underground tram?

Underground cities and tunnels can be traveled by underground transport, in particular trams and trolleybuses, and not just metro trains. There are underground trams in many cities, for example:

Krivoy Rog, Ukraine

High-speed underground tram in Volgograd, Russia

It is known that many Russian rich people build entire underground bunkers in addition to above-ground dwellings, mainly for personal safety

Plan of underground Moscow. Coming Soon Russian city will grow not up, but down

In Yakutia (Eastern Siberia), on the site of a man-made mine crater, they want to build an underground city Eco-City 2020 with a capacity of 100 thousand people

REPTILOID BASE IN THE UNDERGROUND LABYRINTHS UNDER AKSAI

Not far from the large city of Rostov-on-Don, or rather even in its suburbs, since time immemorial people have discovered strange underground structures: Deep underground tunnels, grottoes, caves of obviously artificial origin.

Underground passages lead to God knows where for many kilometers. According to enthusiasts, the length underground passages exceeds a hundred kilometers!!! It is no coincidence that I mentioned enthusiasts. It is only enthusiasts who deal with such anomalies - after all, as always, official science and archeology stubbornly refuses to notice such zones. So, according to the estimates of the same independent experts, these dungeons are at least several thousand years old. Everyone who has ever been there points to their artificial origin. The purpose of creating such a giant underground structure is still unclear. I think the latest knowledge that was described in the book “The Way Home” will help us to reveal the mystery of this miracle at least a little.

Locals, when it comes to dungeons, it is strongly advised not to go there, even on pain of death. Locals experience panic at the thought of trying to penetrate the underground labyrinth. Many people talk about multiple strange cases deaths of people trying to explore the caves. Cattle and other domestic animals have repeatedly disappeared at the entrance to the caves. Often only gnawed bones were found!!!

Several years ago, the military tried to use underground labyrinths for their own purposes. The command of the North Caucasus Military District planned to build a fortified secret control bunker in the catacombs in the event of a nuclear war. We rolled up our sleeves and got to work. Measurements were taken, soil samples were taken, and the area was carefully studied. Several groups were organized to study the extent of the underground passages. Two soldiers with a walkie-talkie and a flashlight in each group walked through cave after cave, labyrinth after labyrinth. Their path was tracked on the surface via radio.

Everything was going as well as possible, but the underground fortified bunker for the control of the North Caucasus Military District near Aksai was still not there. All work was unexpectedly and suddenly stopped. The military retreated from this damned place in panic. The entrance to the dungeon was sealed with a thick layer of reinforced concrete. We did our best - we spent hundreds of tons of selected concrete on this!

An emergency order to stop work came from Moscow after radio contact with one of the groups exploring the dungeons suddenly stopped, and the group did not reach the surface. Rescuers were sent to search. After some time, the rescuers managed to find two soldiers, or rather, what was left of them - only the lower half of the body of each of them!!! From the waist down to the feet in the boots, the rest seemed to have evaporated. The radio was surprisingly cut into two parts. Moreover, further research showed that the cut was so filigree that not even a small crack remained on the electronic boards. Real jewelry work!!! By the way, there was no blood either - the tissues of the soldiers’ bodies were slightly melted at the site of the cut. There is work - laser.

The case was immediately reported to Moscow. An urgent order came from the Ministry of Defense: Stop all work immediately! Remove people and equipment! The entrance to the dungeon is securely sealed with reinforced concrete! The why and wherefore was not explained in the order. Each of you, if you want to explore the dungeon, will now be able to easily detect this reinforced concrete wall with easily visible traces of formwork. The question remains: What so frightened our brave military with their missiles and nuclear power? And why seal the entrance to an ancient dungeon with tons of concrete?
The military classified information on these events so as not to cause panic, but the information surfaced as a result of the death of catacomb researcher Oleg Burlakov. He also died, he was cut in half, but the lower part remained untouched, but only bones remained from the upper part.
Local historians have been mystifying the Aksai catacombs for centuries. A couple of hundred years ago, a strange-looking overseas merchant came to Aksai - it later turned out to be a member of the secret Masonic order of the Jesuits. He spent more than one year in Aksai. During his stay, he spent a lot of money looking for something. What he was looking for, no one could understand. He constantly equipped large groups of diggers and carefully studied the area. It became clear to everyone that the foreigner was not looking for treasure or treasure. The money he spent during this time on diggers and all the work would have been more than enough for several treasure troves.

After all, none of the locals wanted to work near those dungeons for any money. The merchant always had to recruit and bring new people - after a while people fled for unknown reasons.

Whether the merchant managed to find what he was looking for remained a secret behind seven seals. It is only known that according to the ancient books of the Jesuit Masons, who, according to some sources, stand at the origins of the birth of the Roman Catholic Church, it is written that the area near Aksai is a holy land, somehow connected with their deity, whose cult they worship - namely reptiles-Lucifer. For them - to God, and for us - to Satan!!!

This information interested visiting diggers, who decided to take a walk through the dungeon, taking a dog just in case. However, they fell into a trap: after going several hundred meters deep, the diggers noticed that behind them, a couple of steps away, the walls came together, and after a few seconds they parted again. Apparently the mechanism was so ancient that it did not work in time, allowing the diggers to escape danger. The dog accompanying the diggers whined and broke off the leash and ran back through the maze... On the way back, the diggers decided to go around the ill-fated place, but this time they fell into a trap, a hole formed behind them, and then the floor returned to its original position. What secrets do Aksai’s dungeons hide? After all, people had to pay for them with their lives, and not a single one was supposed to leave this labyrinth by falling into a trap!

Residents of Aksai say that their ancestors, living in the Kobyakovsky settlement, made human sacrifices to a certain Dragon, who crawled out of the ground and ate people. This image can very often be found in chronicles, folk tales, among architectural and archaeological monuments. However, the legend of the dragon lives to this day, since just a few decades ago, during the collapse of the floor of a local cannery, workers witnessed a terrifying picture: they noticed below the body of what appeared to be a huge snake, quickly appearing and disappearing into the hole, a devilish roar was heard, dogs Those present during the search of the manhole jumped up from their seats and ran headlong away with their tails between their legs, while the workers looked on dumbfounded and could not come to their senses. This passage was walled up, but the dogs decided to return to this place only a week later.
These eyewitness accounts became the basis for the theory that this dragon crawled out not from underground, but from water. After all, according to geological exploration, there is a lake near Aksai at a depth of 40 meters, and a sea at a depth of 250 meters. The underground waters of the Don form another river; in the Don there is a funnel that sucks in any objects caught in the strong current of the river. They still cannot find the trailers and cars that entered the Don from the old Aksai bridge. Divers who examined the bottom of the lake stated that this funnel draws in objects with enormous force, even steel safety cables are stretched to the limit.

According to eyewitnesses, UFOs appear over the city quite often; they seem to emerge from underground, hang in the air and dive underground again. One day a translucent UFO floated over the city and humanoid figures were visible. One UFO blinded the sleeping Aksai with rays of light, when these rays reached the warships on the banks of the Don, the military attempted to attack the night guest and fired at him from guns, but this did not bring any visible results. The UFO disappeared from the spot and dived somewhere underground. Another case was described by many eyewitnesses: three spherical UFOs were spinning in the sky of the old Aksai bridge. The emanating light was so bright that it began to interfere with traffic on the highway; dozens of drivers watched this spectacle in fascination. The arriving police unit was unable to move the drivers from their place; they had to call for help from Aksai.

An underground network of tunnels piercing the Earth

There are many interconnected caves and artificial underground cavities in the Middle East, India, China, Iran, Afghanistan, Europe, the USA, Russia and many countries.
120 km from Saratov, in the area of ​​the Medveditskaya Ridge, the Kosmopoisk expedition led by Vadim Chernobrov, candidate of technical sciences, discovered in 1997 and in subsequent years mapped an extensive system of tunnels, surveyed for tens of kilometers. The tunnels have a round or oval cross-section with a diameter of 7 to 20 m and are located at a depth of 6 to 30 m from the surface. As they approach the Medveditskaya ridge, their diameter increases from 20 to 35 m, then 80 m, and already at the highest elevation the diameter of the cavities reaches 120 m, turning into a huge hall under the mountain.
Judging by numerous publications in newspapers, magazines and the Internet, ball lightning is often observed in the area of ​​the Medveditskaya Ridge (it ranks second in the world in the number of observed ball lightning) and UFOs, which sometimes disappear underground, which has long attracted the attention of ufologists. Members of the Kosmopoisk expedition hypothesized that the ridge is a “crossroads” where underground roads of many directions converge. They can even be used to reach Novaya Zemlya and the North American continent.
In the article “Tunnels of Disappeared Civilizations,” E. Vorobyov reported that the Mramornaya cave in the Chatyr-Dag mountain range, located at an altitude of 900 m above sea level, was formed on the site of a tunnel with a diameter of about 20 m with perfectly smooth walls, going deep into the mountain range with a slope towards the sea. The walls of this tunnel are well preserved in places and have no traces of erosion from flowing waters - karst caverns. The author believes that the tunnel existed before the beginning of the Oligocene, that is, its age is at least 34 million years!
The newspaper "Astrakhanskie Izvestia"*** reported the existence in Krasnodar region near Gelendzhik, a straight, arrow-like vertical shaft with a diameter of about 1.5 m and a depth of more than 100 m with smooth, as if melted, walls - stronger than the cast-iron tubes in the metro. Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences Sergei Polyakov from Moscow State University found that the microstructure of the soil in the section of the mine wall was damaged by physical impact by only 1-1.5 mm. Based on his conclusion and direct observations, it was concluded that the high fastening properties of the walls are most likely the result of simultaneous thermal and mechanical effects when using some unknown to us high technology.
According to the same E. Vorobyov, in 1950, by a secret resolution of the USSR Council of Ministers, a decision was made to build a tunnel across the Tatar Strait in order to connect the mainland with Sakhalin by rail. Over time, the secrecy was lifted and Doctor of Physical and Mechanical Sciences L. S. Berman, who worked there at that time, said in 1991 in her memoirs addressed to the Voronezh branch of Memorial that the builders were not so much re-building as they were restoring an already existing tunnel, built in ancient times, extremely competently, taking into account the geological features of the bottom of the strait.

Judging by publications, radio and television broadcasts of previous years, the same ancient tunnels were found by the builders of modern metro tunnels and other underground communications in Moscow, Kyiv and other cities. This suggests that, along with subway tunnels, rivers hidden in concrete boxes, sewer and drainage systems and the latest, state-of-the-art “autonomous underground cities” with power plants, there are also numerous underground communications from earlier eras*** . They form a multi-level, intricately intertwined system of countless underground passages and chambers, and the most ancient buildings are located deeper than the metro line and probably continue far beyond the city limits. There is information that on the territory of Ancient Rus' there were underground galleries hundreds of kilometers long, connecting the largest cities of the country. Having entered them, for example, in Kyiv, it was possible to exit in Chernigov (120 km), Lyubech (130 km) and even Smolensk (over 450 km).
And not a single word is said about all these grandiose underground structures in any reference book. There are neither their published maps nor publications dedicated to them. And all because in all countries the location of underground communications is a state secret, and information about them can be obtained mainly only from diggers who study them unofficially.

Of the underground communications found in other countries, noteworthy is the tunnel discovered on Mount Babia (altitude 1725 m) in the Tatra-Beskydy mountain range, located on the border of Poland and Slovakia. UFO encounters also occurred quite often in this place. Studying this anomalous zone Polish ufologist Robert Lesniakiewicz, in search of information about the events that took place here in former times, contacted another Polish specialist on such problems, Dr. Jan Pajonc, a university professor in the New Zealand city of Dunedin.
Professor Payonk wrote to Lesnyakevich that in the mid-1960s, when he was a teenager and a graduating student at the Lyceum, he heard the following story from an elderly man named Vincent:

« Many years ago, my father said that it was time to learn to me the secret that the inhabitants of our region have long passed on from father to son. And this secret is the hidden entrance to the dungeon. And he also told me to remember the road well, because he would only show it to me once.
After that we moved on in silence. When we approached the foot of Babja Gora from the Slovak side, my father stopped again and pointed out to me a small rock protruding from the mountain slope at an altitude of about 600 meters...
When we leaned on the rock together, it suddenly trembled and unexpectedly easily moved to the side. An opening opened into which a cart with a horse harnessed to it could freely enter...
A tunnel opened in front of us, going quite steeply down. My father moved forward, I followed him, stunned by what had happened. The tunnel, similar in cross-section to a slightly flattened circle, was straight as an arrow, and so wide and high that an entire train could easily fit inside it. The smooth and shiny surface of the walls and floor seemed to be covered with glass, but when we walked, our feet did not slip, and the steps were almost inaudible. Taking a closer look, I noticed deep scratches on the floor and walls in many places. It was completely dry inside.
Our long journey along the inclined tunnel continued until it led to a spacious hall that looked like the inside of a huge barrel. Several more tunnels converged in it, some of them were triangular in cross-section, others were round.

...the father spoke again:

- Through the tunnels that diverge from here, you can get to different countries and different continents. The one on the left leads to Germany, then to England, and further to the American continent. The right tunnel stretches to Russia, the Caucasus, then to China and Japan, and from there to America, where it connects with the left. You can also get to America through other tunnels laid under the Earth's poles - the North and South. Along the path of each tunnel there are “junction stations” similar to the one we are in now. So, without knowing the exact route, it’s easy to get lost in them...
The father's story was interrupted by a distant sound, similar at the same time to a low hum and a metallic clang. This is the sound a heavily loaded train makes when it starts to move or brakes sharply...

“The tunnels that you saw,” the father continued his story, “were built not by people, butpowerful creatures living underground. These are their roads for moving from one end of the underworld to the other. And they move onflying fire cars. If we were in the path of such a machine, we would burn alive. Fortunately, the sound in the tunnel can be heard at a great distance, and we had enough time to avoid such an encounter. Well, besides, these creatures live in another part of their world, and rarely appear in our area...”

One more mysterious place, similar to the Bear Ridge, Mount Babyu, Nevado de Cachi, and, perhaps, Shambhala, is Mount Shasta with a height of 4317 m in the Cascade Mountains in northern California. UFO sightings are quite common in the Shasta area...
English traveler and explorer Percy Fawcett, who worked for many years in South America and repeatedly visited North America, mentioned extensive tunnels located near the Popocatepetl and Inlacuatl volcanoes in Mexico... and in the area of ​​Mount Shasta. From local residents he heard stories about tall, golden-haired people supposedly inhabiting the dungeons. The Indians believed that these were the descendants of people who, in ancient times, descended from heaven, failed to adapt to life on the surface and went into underground caves...

Some people even managed to see the mysterious underground empire.
Andrew Thomas, in his book “Shambhala - Oasis of Light,” also wrote that in the mountains of California there are straight, arrow-like underground passages leading to the state of New Mexico.
Maxim Yablokov in the book “Aliens” They are already here!!!” told about one interesting fact. Underground nuclear tests carried out at a test site in Nevada (USA) led to very interesting consequences. After 2 hours, at one of the military bases in Canada, located 2000 km from the test site, a radiation level 20 times higher than normal was recorded. It turned out that next to the Canadian base there was a huge cave, which was part of a huge system of caves and tunnels on the continent...

UNDERGROUND CIVILIZATION OF REPTOIDS

We have already written about reptoids - a race of intelligent lizards that arose simultaneously, and most likely, before humans. The publication wrote that lizards left the stage, giving way to humans. Let's correct ourselves: there are good reasons to believe that the lizards, leaving the surface of the planet to humans, went deep into the Earth.

Earth unknown to us

Despite all the technical achievements, a person still cannot say that he knows the planet as his own apartment. There are still places where no scientist has gone before. In other corners, if he appeared, it was only to write on a rock “I was here” and leave this area in pristine purity for another 200-300 years.

While studying the World Ocean, man descended to a depth of 11,000 m, but is in complete ignorance of what is deeper than 200-300 m. (To visit does not mean to study) As for the natural voids of the Earth, here a person has gone no further than the “hallway” and has no idea how many rooms there are in the underground “apartment” and what size they are. He only knows “a lot” and “very large”.

Endless underground labyrinths

There are caves in absolutely all parts of the world, on all continents, right down to Antarctica. Underground corridors weave into endless labyrinthine tunnels. Walking and crawling through these galleries for 40-50 km without ever reaching the end of the tunnel is quite a common thing for speleologists, not worth mentioning. There are caves 100, 200, 300 km long! Mamontov – 627 km. And none of the caves are considered to be fully explored.

The scientist Andrei Timoshevsky (better known as Andrew Thomas), who studied Tibet and the Himalayas for a long time, wrote that the monks led him into tunnels of endless length, through which, according to them, it was possible to go to the center of the Earth.

After an underground nuclear explosion at a test site in Nevada, in caves in Canada, located more than 2,000 km away, the level of radiation jumped 20 times. American speleologists are confident that all caves on the North American continent communicate with each other.

Russian researcher Pavel Miroshnichenko believes that there is a network of global underground voids stretching from Crimea through the Caucasus to the Volgograd region.

In fact, we have another continent - underground. Is it really not inhabited by anyone?

Masters of the Underworld

Our ancestors did not think so. They were simply convinced of the exact opposite. The peoples of Australia, the North American Indians, the same Tibetan monks, Hindus, residents of the Urals and the Rostov region of the South have traditions and legends about intelligent lizards living in underground labyrinths. federal district. Is it really an accident?

Most likely, as a result of climate change, life for lizards on the surface of the Earth has become impossible. If the unreasonable creatures remained on the surface and died, the reptoids went underground, where there is water, there are no deadly temperature changes, and the deeper it is, the higher it is even higher due to volcanic activity.

Having left the surface of the planet to man, they took possession of its underground part. Undoubtedly, someday the long-awaited meeting will take place. And most likely this will happen in South America. It was here that the wall separating the two civilizations thinned to a thin partition.

Chinkanasy

Even Jesuit priests wrote about the presence in South America of a huge number of underground caves connected together. The Indians called them "chinkanas". The Spaniards believed that the Chincanas were created by the Incas for military purposes: for a quick retreat or a covert attack. The Indians insisted that they had nothing to do with the dungeons; they were created by snake people who lived there and really did not like strangers.

The Europeans did not believe, as they thought, these “horror stories” were intended to prevent the valiant settlers from getting to the gold hidden by the Incas in underground caches. Therefore, there have been many attempts to explore the chincanas of Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Ecuador.

Expeditions do not return

Most adventurers who set off on a risky journey through the underground labyrinths never returned. Rare lucky ones came without gold and talked about meetings with people covered with scales and huge eyes, but no one believed them. The authorities, who had absolutely no need for emergencies with missing “tourists,” blocked and covered all known entrances and exits.

Chinkanas were also studied by scientists. In the 20s of the 20th century, several Peruvian expeditions disappeared in the Peruvian chincanas. In 1952, a joint American-French group went underground. The scientists planned to return in 5 days. The only surviving member of the expedition, Philippe Lamontiere, came to the surface 15 days later, slightly mentally damaged.

It was not possible to establish what in his incoherent stories about endless labyrinths and lizards walking on two legs that killed everyone else was true and what was the fruit of a sick imagination. The Frenchman died a few days later from the bubonic plague. Where did he find the plague in the dungeon?

Reptoids, on their way out?

Who lives there, in the dungeon? Research into caves, including the mysterious Chancanas, continues. Returning members of the expeditions are confident that intelligent creatures live in the depths of the caves. The stairs and steps they found in the dungeons, the halls whose floors are paved with slabs, and kilometer-long gutters carved into the walls leave no other options. And the deeper and further the researchers go, the more often they come across all sorts of “surprises”.

Scientists in France, England, the USA and Russia have repeatedly recorded powerful flows of electromagnetic waves, the source of which is located in the depths of the Earth. Their nature is unclear.

EXCERPT FROM “INTERVIEW WITH REPTILOID LASERTA”

Lacerta: When I talk about our underground house, I'm talking about large systems caves The caves you discover close to the surface are tiny compared to the real caves and the huge caves deep within the earth (2,000 to 8,000 of your meters, but connected by many hidden tunnels to the surface or to surfaces in the vicinity of the caves). And we live in large and developed cities and colonies inside such caves.

Our main cave sites are Antarctica, Inner Asia, North America and Australia. If I talk about artificial sunlight in our cities, I do not mean the real sun, but various technological light sources that illuminate caves and tunnels.

There are special cave areas and tunnels with strong UV light in every city and we use them to heat up our blood. In addition, we also have some areas of sunny surface spots in remote areas, especially in America and Australia.

Question: Where can we find such surfaces - near the entrance to your world?

Answer: Do you really think that I will tell you their exact location? If you want to find such an entrance, you should look for it (but I would advise you not to do so.) When I arrived on the surface four days ago, I used an entrance about 300 kilometers north of here, close to big lake, but I doubt you could find it (there are only a few occurrences in this part of the world – there are many more large quantity in the north and east.)

As a little tip: if you are in a narrow cave or in a tunnel or even something that looks like a man-made mine, and the deeper you go, the smoother the walls become; and if you feel unusual warm air flowing from the depths, or if you hear the sound of flowing air in the ventilation or lift shaft, and find a special kind of artificial things;

else – if you see a wall with a door made of gray metal somewhere in a cave – you might try to open that door (but I doubt it); or, you find yourself underground in an ordinary-looking technical room with ventilation systems and lifts in depth - then this is probably the entrance to our world;

If you have reached this place, you should know that we have now identified your location and are aware of your presence, you are already in big trouble. If you entered a circular room, then you should look for one of two reptilian symbols on the walls. If there are no symbols or there are other symbols, then you are perhaps in even more trouble than you think, because not every underground structure belongs to our species.

Some new tunnel systems are used by alien races (including hostile races). My general advice if you find yourself in an underground structure that seems strange to you: run as fast as you can.

ANCIENT UNDERGROUND CITIES OF THE EARTH.

There have been no white spots left on the map of the Earth for a long time. However, it turns out that there is also an underground world.

Each of the underground cities discovered today is capable of shocking in its scale. Therefore, you can start describing them with any example.

Sahara Desert. Deep below it, much lower than the sands, there are tunnels about 5,000 years old. They are carved out of rock and represent a complex system of communications, the total length of which is 1,600 kilometers. The unknown people who created this miracle extracted 20 million cubic meters of stone to the surface of the earth! The task is hardly feasible even for modern technology.

Paris. The network of tunnels and galleries underneath reaches 300 kilometers. Their construction was completed much earlier than the Nativity of Christ, and only in the Middle Ages did Parisians begin to descend into the catacombs to bury their dead in them.

Rome. Here the dungeons were also used for burials. However, their construction was completed before the beginning of our era. Tunnels and galleries are carved into volcanic tuff and they stretch for 500 kilometers. In total there are more than 40 catacombs independent from each other.

Naples. Over 700 catacombs! Many of them are equipped with special rooms for storing water and food. During World War II, these catacombs were ideal as bomb shelters. Their age is unthinkable - 6500 years.

Maltese Hypogeum. It was carved into solid granite between 3200 and 2900 AD. BC. Its length is difficult to establish, because it goes into the depths of the rock for several floors, as if it were a modern high-rise building in reverse.

Entire cities are hidden under Turkey. They stretch for many kilometers and go deep into several tiers. For example, below the village of Derinkuyu, the city occupies five floors. The lower floor can accommodate 10 thousand people, and in total there can be 300 thousand people in the premises. Every corner of the dungeons is equipped with ventilation. Archaeologists know about 52 ventilation shafts (the deepest of them is 85 meters) and 15 thousand entrances to the city.

And so we can go on and on. India, Jordan, Sicily, England, Belgium, Korea, Czech Republic, Germany, Syria, Palestine... Only in the territory of the former USSR there are more than 2,500 ancient catacombs. This includes Crimea, Azerbaijan, and Georgia. The catacombs of Zaporozhye occupy a special place. Thus, in the Kamennaya Mogila tract, the first dungeons were built in the 14th millennium BC!

It would be wrong to think that the catacombs are primitive caves. In no case! The complexity of underground architecture is illustrated by the following example. In 1960, the Abkhazian museum undertook work to transport one underground dolmen from Esheri to Sukhumi. First, they removed the “roof” - the covering stone slab. The crane's cables failed. I had to use two taps. They finally pulled the stone monolith to the surface, and all that was left was to lift it onto a truck. No matter how hard the loaders tried, the slab did not budge. Only a year later the domain moved entirely to the museum courtyard, but this time too there was a misfortune. It was not possible to fit the plates into the grooves, although initially they were in contact with each other with an accuracy of tenths of a millimeter.

Or take the catacombs in the Peruvian Andes. They were discovered in the 16th century by Francisco Pizarro, and serious research was carried out in 1971. It turned out that the underground passages are lined with massive blocks, the surface of which is covered with a corrugated pattern. The fact is that these tunnels are carved into the rocks at an altitude of 6770 meters and they lead to the ocean at an angle of 14°. In other words, the ancient builders even took care to prevent slipping when passing through the tunnels. Little of! Huge stone doors were discovered in these catacombs. For all their weight and apparent clumsiness, they closed absolutely hermetically and were moved almost effortlessly by one person.

Finally, it's time to talk about Ecuador. The discovery made there is currently classified, and no foreigners have the right to access it. However, in the second half of the twentieth century, the Anglo-Ecuadorian expedition managed to make known to the whole world such facts that are difficult to comprehend.

So, in 1965, in the province of Morona-Santiaga, the Argentinean Juan Morich discovered an underground city consisting of tunnels and galleries that stretch several hundred kilometers. The entrance to the city is carved into the rock and is large enough for a truck to enter. The stone walls of the dungeons are covered with a strange glaze, as if they were once exposed to extremely high temperatures.

Already at the very entrance there are scatterings of metal and stone figurines depicting various animals. If you move into the very depths, you will see a gallery of large figures cast in gold. The further you go, the more often you will encounter huge halls. There is a library in one of the halls. It contains thousands of metal plates covered with writing in an unknown language.

The heart of the underground city is a hall larger than a football field. In the center of the hall there is a bulky table and seven high thrones. The material from which they are made cannot be found on earth. In appearance, it looks like a cross between stone and plastic. The most important statement of that expedition were the following words: the dungeons are inhabited...

We must admit that we know very little about our planet and life on it. Humanity must not become arrogant. Underground cities so far only lead to assumptions and speculation. Scientists are cautiously putting forward versions that the catacombs were built to save human civilization from a threat from the air. Either humanity was expecting the coming of an all-destroying comet, or... One way or another, the history of great underground construction projects cannot but excite minds

Mines and voids in the earth's crust, cave complexes and man-made tunnels, rock settlements found throughout the planet, directly or indirectly, but still confirm the existence of an underground civilization.

In 1970, an American satellite photographed something strange near the North Pole. A strange hole was visible under the clouds. The image has undergone thousands of examinations. Scientists are still arguing about what this “hole” is, but there is no unanimous opinion. One of the opinions has become the most popular: this “hole” is an opening in the Earth leading to the inner world of our planet. Moreover, there is an assumption that this world is still inhabited today.

Mentions of underground civilization can be found in the myths of different peoples. Very often in ancient mythologies there are stories about the existence of a certain underground civilization, which is very similar in its description to Agharti. In Hindu mythology, this is the underground kingdom where supernatural beings live who oppose the heavenly gods. Unlike hell, this world is described as the most beautiful place, a kind of underground paradise made of gold and precious stones.

There are a lot of supporters and opponents of the existence of underground life. Neither side has yet achieved any major victory to back up their case.

In 1976, an experiment was carried out: twelve military men were placed in the Czechoslovakian Krksona cave in order to be able to study the behavior of a group of people who were in absolute isolation from the outside world. People were provided with a full life with intellectual and physical activities. Everything that happened in the cave was bugged.

By the end of the fifth month of their underground life, the military began to report to the top that someone was constantly talking to them. Scientists, deciding that the soldiers began to have auditory hallucinations, did not attach any significance to this. But very soon the experimental military men began to talk among themselves about some underground city to which someone was inviting them to move.

On the one hundred and seventy-third day of the experiment, the soldiers unexpectedly cut off all power and communication wires. A group of speleologists and military specialists was immediately sent down into the cave to stop the experiment and evacuate people. But when they came down, they were simply amazed. They found only one sergeant who was in the deepest depression. And the rest of the experiment participants disappeared somewhere. To this day, what happened to them remains a mystery: did the strong-willed military volunteers go crazy and disappear in the numerous passages of this ancient cave, or did they really move to the mentioned underground city...

For the first time, an underground people unknown to mankind was mentioned in 1946. This happened when scientist, writer and journalist Richard Shaver, in the American magazine “Amazing Stories”, dedicated to everything paranormal, spoke about his contact with aliens, but not arriving from the Universe, but living here, underground.

According to him, Shaver spent several weeks in the underworld among mutants similar to demons. This is how ancient legends and tales of many nationalities describe them. One can, of course, attribute the story of such a “contact” to the scientist’s wild imagination, it would be possible, if not for one thing... The editors began to receive hundreds of responses from readers who not only claimed that they themselves had visited underground cities, communicating with their inhabitants, but and saw such miracles of technology that provide a very comfortable existence for the underground inhabitants of the Earth in the depths of its bowels. Moreover, these technical miracles make it possible for underground inhabitants to control the consciousness of earthlings.

This story, surprisingly, had very “turbulent” consequences, having a huge impact on scientists and giving impetus to the study of this paranormal phenomenon.

However, the fact that our planet is an empty sphere was asserted in their works by the seventeenth-century English astronomer Edmund Halley, writers such as Jules Verne, Edgar Allan Poe and many others. Moreover, in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the United States considered the possibility of mounting a secret scientific expedition that would try to find out whether our planet was truly a hollow sphere, and how its depths could be penetrated.

The Third Reich was also interested in the mysterious underground world. So, back in 1942, under the patronage of Himmler and Goering, and in an atmosphere of great secrecy, a very impressive expedition, which included the most advanced scientists of National Socialist Germany, set out to look for this underground civilization. It was assumed that the “home” of super-developed ancient peoples was located under the island of Rugen in the Baltic Sea.

German scientists seriously hoped to place fundamentally new radar devices underground in order to get closer to the goal of world domination. It is not known how this adventure ended, but already in the second half of the last century, the hypothesis of an underground civilization suddenly began to be confirmed.

In 1963, two American miners David Fellin and Henry Thorne, while digging a tunnel, discovered a huge door behind which they saw people descending marble stairs. Already in England, just a few years later, miners digging an underground tunnel also recorded the clanging and grinding of working mechanisms coming from below. When the rock mass was broken through, stairs leading to an underground well were again discovered. At the same time, the noise of the operating mechanisms immediately intensified. Frightened to death, the workers ran away, and when they returned to this place with help, they could no longer find either an entrance made in the rock mass, or an underground well, or a staircase.

The research of anthropologist James McKenna, who examined a strange cave in the American state of Idaho, which was notorious among the indigenous population, also aroused great interest. McKen and his companion, having walked several hundred meters along a wide cave corridor, suddenly clearly heard screams and moans. But what happened next was even more interesting. They soon saw terrible finds - human skeletons. Unfortunately, further research in the cave, which in these places was considered the gateway to the underworld, had to be stopped immediately: the smell of sulfur made many people feel sick.

Several years ago, a discovery was made in Ufa that contradicts the traditional idea of ​​human history. It's about about the sensational map of Chuvyrov. In June 2002, in many ways mass media a message appeared that in Bashkiria, in the abandoned village of Chandar, a very ancient stone slab was found, on which, using technologies available only to highly developed civilizations, a three-dimensional map of the region of the entire Southern Urals was made.

A hypothesis immediately appeared that this plate was a fragment of a much more complete, three-dimensional image - a map of our entire planet Earth. When mysterious find Professor Chuvyrov was studied by scientists from the Center for Historical Cartography of the American state of Wisconsin, a unanimous conclusion was made: it was undoubtedly a map, but what’s interesting is that it was created for navigation. According to scientists, it is difficult to imagine its use for any other purpose. The creators of the map, according to not only ours, but also American scientists, had the ability to fly. Moreover, they even flew in orbits that went beyond the planetary atmosphere. The second layer of the image draws the underground part of the area, its underground relief. The result of the discovery was incredible: a map was found in Bashkiria that depicted the above-ground and underground worlds as a civilization many times technologically superior to ours.

Geologists do not share the theory of a cavity inside the Earth, but they also do not deny the possibility of the existence of huge hollow spaces there. It is incredible that people for whom this map was compiled could live there, because inside the Earth there is quite heat, little oxygen and full of gases incompatible with the possibility of life. All this prompted researchers to hypothesize that the underground civilization may have had extraterrestrial origin.

But here a paradox arises: if our planet is still hollow, then why has the entrance to the underworld not been discovered? A group of scientists from the USA suggests that underground cities, although they exist..., but in the fourth dimension. And only when the electromagnetic field of the planet changes from time to time, the entrances to the tunnels suddenly open on its surface, and at other times they are closed.

Most likely, it was precisely for the purpose of recording the entrance to such underground cities that many religious buildings such as Stonehenge arose, the purpose of which scientists are still puzzling over; it was for this purpose that the map that Chuvyrov found was compiled. And if we really lean towards the hypothesis that some intelligent race lives in the depths of planet Earth, then many mysterious phenomena find their explanations...

We can say that this mystery has been solved, because modern researchers have already made their conclusion - we are not the only inhabitants on planet Earth. Evidence from ancient times, as well as the discoveries of scientists of the 20th and 21st centuries, claim that mysterious civilizations have existed on Earth, or rather, underground, from ancient times to the present day.

Representatives of these civilizations, for some reason, did not come into contact with people, but still made themselves felt, and terrestrial humanity has long had traditions and legends about mysterious and strange people sometimes emerging from caves. In addition, modern people have less and less doubt about the existence of UFOs, which were often observed flying out of the ground or from the depths of the seas.

Research conducted by NASA specialists together with French scientists discovered underground cities, as well as an underground extensive network of tunnels and galleries, stretching for tens and even thousands of kilometers in Altai, the Urals, the Perm region, the Tien Shan, the Sahara and South America. And these are not those ancient land cities that collapsed and over time their ruins were covered with earth and forests. These are precisely underground cities and structures, erected in a way unknown to us directly in underground rock formations.

Polish researcher Jan Paenk states that a whole network of tunnels has been laid underground that lead to any country. These tunnels are created using high technology, not known to people, and pass not only under the surface of the land, but also under the bed of seas and oceans. The tunnels are not just pierced, but as if burned out in underground rocks, and their walls are a frozen molten rock - smooth, like glass, and have an extraordinary strength. Jan Paenk met with miners who, while digging shreks, came across such tunnels. According to the Polish scientist and many other researchers, flying saucers are carried along these underground communications from one end of the world to the other. (Ufologists have great amount evidence that UFOs fly out of the earth and from the depths of the seas). Such tunnels have also been discovered in Ecuador, South Australia, the USA, and New Zealand. In addition, in many parts of the world, vertical, absolutely straight (like an arrow) wells with the same melted walls have been discovered. These wells have different depths from tens to several hundred meters.

The discovered underground map of the planet, compiled 5 million years ago, confirms the existence of a high-tech civilization.
For the first time they started talking about the unknown underground people in 1946. This happened after writer, journalist and scientist Richard Shaver told readers of the American paranormal magazine Amazing Stories about his contact with aliens living underground. According to Shaver, he lived for several weeks in the underground world of mutants similar to demons described in ancient legends and tales of earthlings.
One could attribute this “contact” to the writer’s wild imagination, if not for hundreds of responses from readers who claimed that they also visited underground cities, communicated with their inhabitants and saw various miracles of technology, not only providing the underground inhabitants of the Earth with a comfortable existence in its very subsoil, but also giving the opportunity... to control the consciousness of earthlings!

In April 1942, with the support of Goering and Himmler, an expedition consisting of the most advanced minds of Nazi Germany, led by Professor Heinz Fischer, set out to look for the entrance to an underground civilization, supposedly located on the island of Rugen in the Baltic Sea. Hitler was confident that at least some parts of the earth consisted of voids, inside of which one could live and which had long ago become home to the hyper-developed peoples of antiquity. German scientists, in turn, hoped that if they managed to place modern radar devices at the desired geographical point under the surface of the earth, then with their help it would be possible to track the exact location of the enemy in any part of the world. Almost every nation has myths about the race of Ancient creatures that inhabited the world millions of years ago. Infinitely wise, scientifically advanced and culturally developed, these creatures, driven underground by terrible disasters, created their own civilization there, giving them everything they needed. They want nothing to do with people they consider low, dirty and wild. But sometimes they steal human children in order to raise them as their own. Ancient creatures are similar in appearance to ordinary people and live for a very long time, but they appeared on our planet millions of years before us.
In 1977, photographs obtained from the ESSA-7 satellite appeared in several American magazines, showing a regular dark spot, similar to a huge hole, in the place where the North Pole should be located. Identical photographs were taken by the same satellite in 1981, could this be the entrance to the underworld?
Who are the inhabitants of the underworld?

In the history of the planet there were many ice ages, collisions with meteorites, and other cataclysms that led to the disappearance of civilizations, the period between which cataclysms occurred was quite sufficient for the formation of a highly technical civilization.
Is it possible that some civilization could survive the “end of the world”?
Monsters or inhabitants of the underworld

Suppose that millions of years ago there was a high-tech civilization, during which there was a collision with a meteorite or another global cataclysm that changed the climate of the planet, what would the civilization do then, most likely it would try to survive, and if the surface of the planet is not suitable for life and flying to another planet is not possible? The level of technology allows, only the “underground shelter” remains.
Then the question is, what happened to civilization and why, after the climate change, the underground inhabitants did not come to the surface?
Maybe they just couldn’t, constant exposure to a different climate and different gravity (underground gravitational pressure is significantly different from normal), in addition, it should be noted that there is no sunlight underground, technological lighting does not contain the full spectrum, and a long stay under technical lighting may also be the cause of “weaning” from sunlight.

Taking into account that all this happened over thousands of years, it can be assumed that the underground civilization could have evolved greatly, it is even possible that it has developed an aversion to some aspects of the climate, for example sunlight, it is possible that sunlight simply burns the inhabitants of the underground world, all this is not as fantastic as it seems. Another aspect of survival, adaptation of food, since organizing “vigitarian” food in the conditions of the underground world is not very simple, and rather depends on the level of civilization; in fact, it is quite possible that civilization switched to only animal food. Some of the listed parameters undoubtedly had to influence the culture and mentality of civilization; maybe some monsters are just inhabitants of the underworld?

The mysterious underground world exists not only in legends. In recent decades, the number of visitors to the caves has increased markedly. Adventurers and miners are making their way deeper and deeper into the bowels of the Earth, and more and more often they come across traces of the activities of mysterious underground inhabitants. It turned out that beneath us there is a whole network of tunnels, stretching for thousands of kilometers and enveloping the entire Earth in a network, and huge, sometimes even populated underground cities.

In South America there are amazing caves connected by endless intricate passages - the so-called chincanas. Legends of the Hopi Indians say that snake people live in their depths. These caves are practically unexplored. By order of the authorities, all entrances to them are tightly closed with bars. Dozens of adventurers have already disappeared without a trace in the Chinkanas. Some tried to penetrate the dark depths out of curiosity, others - out of thirst for profit: according to legend, the treasures of the Incas were hidden in the chincanas. Only a few managed to escape from the terrible caves. But these “lucky ones” were forever damaged in their minds. From the incoherent stories of the survivors, it can be understood that they met strange creatures in the depths of the earth. These inhabitants of the underworld were both human and snake-like.

There are pictures of fragments of global dungeons in North America. The author of the book about Shambhala, Andrew Thomas, based on a thorough analysis of the stories of American speleologists, claims that in the mountains of California there are direct underground passages that lead to the state of New Mexico.

Once upon a time, the American military also had to study mysterious thousand-kilometer tunnels. An underground nuclear explosion occurred at a test site in Nevada. Exactly two hours later, at a military base in Canada, 2000 kilometers away from the explosion site, a radiation level was recorded that was 20 times higher than normal. A study by geologists has shown that near the Canadian base there is an underground cavity that connects to a huge cave system that spans the North American continent.

There are especially many legends about the underground world of Tibet and the Himalayas. Here in the mountains there are tunnels that go deep into the ground. Through them, the “initiate” can travel to the center of the planet and meet representatives of the ancient underground civilization. But not only wise creatures who give advice to the “initiates” live in the underworld of India. Ancient Indian legends tell of the mysterious kingdom of the Nagas, hidden in the depths of the mountains. It is inhabited by Nanas - snake people who store countless treasures in their caves. Cold-blooded, like snakes, these creatures are incapable of experiencing human feelings. They cannot warm themselves and steal warmth, physical and mental, from other living beings.

Speleologist Pavel Miroshnichenko, a researcher who studies artificial structures, wrote about the existence of a system of global tunnels in Russia in his book “The Legend of LSP”. The lines of global tunnels he drew on the map of the former USSR went from Crimea through the Caucasus to the well-known Medveditsa ridge. In each of these places, groups of ufologists, speleologists, and researchers of the unknown discovered fragments of tunnels or mysterious bottomless wells.

The Medveditskaya Ridge has been studied for many years by expeditions organized by the Kosmopoisk association. The researchers not only managed to record the stories of local residents, but also used geophysical equipment to prove the reality of the existence of the dungeons. Unfortunately, after World War II, the mouths of the tunnels were blown up.

A sublatitudinal tunnel stretching from Crimea to the east in the region of the Ural Mountains intersects with another one stretching from north to east. It is along this tunnel that you can hear stories about “wonderful people” who came out to local residents at the beginning of the last century. “Divya people,” as told in epics common in the Urals, “live in Ural mountains, exits to the world are through caves. Their culture is great. The “Wonderful People” are small in stature, very beautiful and have a pleasant voice, but only a select few can hear them... An old man from the “Wonderful People” comes to the square and predicts what will happen. An unworthy person hears and sees nothing, but the men in those places know everything that the Bolsheviks are hiding.”

Legends of our days.

Meanwhile, the most authoritative archaeologists of Peru today have no doubt at all about the existence of an underground empire: not yet explored by anyone, it, in their understanding, extends under the seas and continents. And above the entrances to this grandiose dungeon in various parts of the planet rise ancient buildings: for example, in Peru this is the city of Cusco... Of course, the opinion of Peruvian experts is not shared by all scientists. And yet, many facts speak in favor of the underworld, indirectly proving its existence. The most fruitful years for such evidence were the 1970s.

England. The miners, digging an underground tunnel, heard the sounds of working mechanisms coming from somewhere below. Having made a passage, they discovered a staircase leading to an underground well. The sound of the operating equipment intensified, and therefore the workers got scared and ran away. Returning after some time, they found neither the entrance to the well nor the stairs.

USA. Anthropologist James McCann and his colleagues examined a cave in Idaho that was notorious among the indigenous population. Local residents believed that there was an entrance to the underworld. Scientists, going deeper into the dungeon, clearly heard screams and moans, and then discovered human skeletons. Further exploration of the cave had to be stopped due to the increasing smell of sulfur.

A bottomless mine with a diameter of about one and a half meters with amazingly smooth edges was discovered under the Black Sea city of Gelendzhik. Experts unanimously say: it was created using technology unknown to people and has existed for hundreds of years.

Speaking about the underworld, one cannot discount the legends that have appeared in our days. For example, modern Indians living in mountainous areas California, they say that very tall, golden-haired people sometimes come from Mount Shasta: they once descended from heaven, but were unable to adapt to life on the earth’s surface. Now they live in a secret city that is inside extinct volcano. And you can only get into it through mountain caves. By the way, Andrew Thomas, the author of a book about Shambhala, completely agrees with the Indians. The researcher believes that there are underground passages in Mount Shasta that go towards New Mexico and further to South America.

Another underground people was “discovered” by speleologists: they are sure that deep caves Troglodytes inhabit all over the world. They say that these cave dwellers sometimes appear to people; they help those in trouble who respect their world, and punish those who desecrate the caves...

To believe or not to believe?

To believe or not to believe all these stories? Any sane person will answer: “Don’t believe it!” But not everything is so simple. Let's try to think logically. Let's think about how real a person's full life underground is? Could an unknown culture or even civilization exist next to us - or rather, below us - while managing to limit contact with terrestrial humanity to a minimum? Going unnoticed? Is this possible? Does such “living” contradict common sense?

In principle, a person can exist underground, and it would be quite nice - if there was money. Suffice it to recall the bunker house, the construction of which is currently being carried out by Tom Cruise: the megastar plans to hide in his underground home from aliens, who, in his opinion, should soon attack our Earth. In less exposed, but no less solid bunker cities, the “chosen ones” are preparing to wait out the nuclear winter and the post-radiation period in the event of a nuclear war - and this is a period during which more than one generation will get back on their feet! Moreover, in China and Spain today many thousands of people live not in houses, but in well-equipped caves with all amenities. True, these cave dwellers continue to actively contact the outside world and take part in terrestrial life. But the inhabitants of cave monasteries scattered around the world - like the Greek Meteora - have always been almost completely cut off from the hustle and bustle of life. Based on the degree of isolation that lasts for centuries, their existence can be considered underground.

But perhaps the most striking example of adaptability huge number people (what is there - a whole civilization!) to the "lower" world - this is the underground city of Derinkuyu.

Derinkuyu

Derinkuyu, which means "deep wells", takes its name from the small Turkish town currently located above it. For a long time, no one thought about the purpose of these strange wells, until in 1963 one of the local residents, who discovered a strange gap in his basement from which fresh air was drawn, showed healthy curiosity. As a result, a multi-tiered underground city was found, numerous rooms and galleries of which, connected to each other by passages tens of kilometers long, were hollowed out in rock...

Already during the excavation of the upper tiers of Derinkuyu it became clear: this is the discovery of the century. In the underground city, scientists discovered objects of material culture of the Hittites, a great people who competed with the Egyptians for dominance in Western Asia. The Hittite kingdom, founded in the 18th century BC. e., in the 12th century BC. e. disappeared into obscurity. Therefore, the discovery of an entire Hittite city became a real sensation. In addition, it turned out that the giant underground city is only part of a colossal labyrinth under the Anatolian Plateau. Scientists have come to the conclusion that underground construction was carried out for at least nine (!) centuries. Moreover, this was not just earthwork, albeit of colossal volume. Ancient architects equipped the underground empire with a life support system, the perfection of which is still amazing today. Everything here was thought out to the smallest detail: rooms for animals, food warehouses, rooms for preparing and eating food, for sleeping, for meetings... At the same time, religious temples and schools were not forgotten. A precisely calculated blocking device made it possible to easily block the entrances to the dungeon with granite doors. And the ventilation system that supplied the city with fresh air continues to operate flawlessly to this day!

Given the availability of provisions, up to two hundred thousand people at a time could live indefinitely in the underground city. The issue of replenishing food supplies could be solved in many ways: from domestic production to the use of “intermediary services.” Apparently, there was no single scheme for all times.
But in the legends of different peoples, underground inhabitants obtain food by barter, secret trade, or even theft. The latter option, however, is only suitable for small underground communities: Derinkuyu could hardly feed himself in this way. By the way, most likely, it was the extraction of food that became the reason that the land inhabitants began to think about the existence of “children of the dungeons”...
Traces of the Hittites living underground can be traced until the Middle Ages, and then are lost. A developed underground civilization managed to exist secretly for almost two millennia, and after its disappearance it did not open up to the surface world for more than a thousand years. And this amazing fact alone allows us to draw an unambiguous conclusion: yes, it is still possible to live underground in secret from people!

This is a huge underground city that goes 8 floors underground.

Always +27.

Underground America

Legends and myths of many peoples of the world tell about the existence of various intelligent creatures underground. In truth, few sane people ever took these narratives seriously. But now our time has come, and some researchers began to write about the underground city of Agartha. The entrance to this secret underground dwelling of theirs is supposedly located under the Lasha Monastery in Tibet. The absolute majority of representatives of official science reacted to such statements with slight irony. But on the other hand, messages about mysterious entrances to dungeons and bottomless mines may perhaps interest not only an inquisitive person, but also a serious scientist.

Among a number of researchers of the underground world, there is a strong opinion that entrances to the underground cities of humanoid inhabitants exist in Ecuador, the Pamirs and even at the poles of the Arctic and Antarctic.

It was in the area of ​​Mount Shasta, according to Indian eyewitnesses, that people, unlike those here, were seen several times coming out of the ground. According to the written testimonies of many Indians, one can enter the underworld through various caves located near the sacred volcanoes Popocatelpetl and Inlacuatl. Here, according to the assurances of the same Indians, they sometimes met tall and fair-haired strangers emerging from the dungeon.

Back in his time, the famous English traveler and scientist Percy Fawcett, who visited South America six times, said that he had repeatedly heard from Indians living in mountainous areas that they often see strong, large and golden-haired people descending and ascending in mountains.

Even 30 years ago, near Gelendzhik, both people and animals disappeared without a trace. And in the early 70s of the last century, people quite by accident discovered and immediately fenced off a bottomless mine with a diameter of about 1.5 meters. Its walls are smooth, as if polished, without any traces of formwork. Experts almost unanimously say that it has probably existed for hundreds of years and was created using technology unknown to modern humanity. The first attempt by scientists and speleologists to carefully examine the phenomenon ended tragically. Of the five members of the expedition, one disappeared, and four died a few days after rappelling to a depth of 25 meters. The man who died in the mine fell 30 meters, and at that moment his partners first heard some strange sounds, and then the wild cry of their comrade. Those who remained at the top immediately began to lift their colleague from the shaft, but the rope first stretched like a string, and then suddenly weakened. The lower end was cut off as if by a knife. There were subsequent, albeit short-lived, attempts to explore this bottomless well by lowering it into it. They gave practically nothing. Then they started lowering a television camera into the shaft. The rope was gradually increased to 200 meters, and all this time the camera showed bare walls. That's all that is known today about the Gelendzhik phenomenon.

Similar bottomless wells have been found on all continents of the planet.

The most authoritative archaeologists of Peru today have no doubt at all about the existence of an as yet completely unexplored underground empire, stretching under the seas and continents. In their opinion, there are ancient cities and buildings above the entrances to them in various parts of the continents. For example, they believe that one of these places is Cusco in Peru.

In this regard, the most intriguing story is about the underground city of La Cecana in the Andes. More recently, in the university library of the city of Cusco, archeology discovered a report on the disaster that befell a group of researchers from France and the United States in 1952. In the vicinity of the named city, they found the entrance to the dungeon and began to prepare to descend into it. The scientists did not intend to stay there for long, so they took food for 5 days. However, only 15 days later, out of 7 people, only one Frenchman, Philippe Lamontiere, made it to the surface. He was exhausted, suffered from memory loss, almost lost his human appearance, and besides, he was soon found to have clear signs of infection with the deadly bubonic plague. While in the hospital isolation ward, the Frenchman was mostly delirious, but still sometimes spoke about the bottomless abyss into which his companions had fallen. No one took his words seriously, and therefore no rescue expedition was carried out. Moreover, out of fear of the plague epidemic that Philippe Lamontiere brought with him, the authorities ordered to immediately block the entrance to the dungeon with a reinforced concrete slab. The Frenchman died a few days later, and after him there was left an ear of corn made of pure gold, which he picked up from the ground with him. Now this underground find is kept in the Museum of Archeology in Cusco.

More recently, the most authoritative researcher of the Inca civilization, Dr. Raul Rios Centeno, tried to repeat the route of the tragically missing expedition of the French and Americans. He gathered a group of 6 specialists and obtained permission from the authorities to enter the dungeon through the already studied entrances. However, having outwitted the guards, the archaeologists went underground through a room located under the tomb of a dilapidated temple a few kilometers from Cusco. From here there was a long, gradually narrowing corridor that looked like part of a huge ventilation system. Some time later, the expedition was forced to stop, since for some unknown reason the walls of the tunnel did not reflect infrared rays. Then the researchers decided to use a special radio filter, which suddenly started working when tuned to the frequency of aluminum. This fact plunged all participants into complete bewilderment. Where, one might ask, did this metal come from in the prehistoric labyrinth? They began to explore the walls. And it turned out that they had plating of unknown origin and high density, which no instrument could take. The tunnel steadily continued to narrow until its height reached 90 cm. People had to turn back. On the way back, the guide ran away, fearing that he would eventually be severely punished for assisting the scientists in their illegal activities. This is where the expedition ended. Dr. Centeno was not allowed to repeat further research even at the highest government authorities...

Tibetan lamas say that the ruler of the Underworld
is the great King of the World, as he is called in the East. And his kingdom is
Agartha, based on the principles of the Golden Age, exists at least 60
thousand years. People there know no evil and do not commit crimes. Unseen
Science flourished there, so the underground people who reached
incredible heights of knowledge, does not know diseases and is not afraid of any
disasters. The King of Peace wisely rules not only millions of his own
underground subjects, but also secretly by the entire population of the surface
parts of the Earth. He knows all the hidden springs of the universe, he comprehends the soul
every human being and reads the great book of destinies.

The kingdom of Agartha stretches underground throughout the planet. And under the oceans too.
There is also an opinion that the peoples of Agartha were forced to switch to
underground living after a universal cataclysm (flood) and immersion
under the water of land - ancient continents that existed on the site of the present
oceans. As the Himalayan lamas say, in the caves of Agartha there is
a special glow that even allows you to grow vegetables and grains. Chinese
Buddhists know that ancient people, who took refuge after another
doomsday underground, lives in caves in America. Here they are -
Ecuadorian dungeons of Erich von Denniken in the foothills of South America
Andes. Let us recall that information gleaned from Chinese sources
published in 1922, that is, exactly half a century before the irrepressible
the Swiss began his fantastic descent to a depth of 240 meters to
mysterious repositories of ancient knowledge, lost in inaccessible
places in the Ecuadorian province of Morona-Santiago.

The underground workshops are in full swing with tireless work. Any metals melt there
and products are forged from them. In unknown chariots or other perfect
devices, underground inhabitants rush through tunnels laid deep
underground. The level of technical development of underground inhabitants exceeds
wildest imagination.

Dungeons of Cusco

An ancient legend is also associated with gold, telling about a secret entrance to a vast labyrinth of underground galleries under a collapsed building. As evidenced by the Spanish magazine Mas Alya, which specializes in describing all kinds of historical mysteries, this legend, in particular, tells that there are gigantic tunnels that cross the vast mountainous territory of Peru and reach Brazil and Ecuador. In the Quechua Indian language they are called "chincana", which literally means "labyrinth". In these tunnels, the Incas, supposedly deceiving the Spanish conquistadors, hid a significant part of the golden wealth of their empire in the form of large-sized artistic objects. Even a specific point in Cusco was indicated where this labyrinth began and where the Temple of the Sun once stood.

It was gold that glorified Cusco (the only museum in the world dedicated to this noble metal still operates here). But it also destroyed him. The Spanish conquistadors who conquered the city plundered the Temple of the Sun, and all its riches, including the golden statues in the garden, were loaded onto ships and sent to Spain. At the same time, rumors spread about the existence of underground halls and galleries, where the Incas allegedly hid part of the ritual gold items. This rumor is indirectly confirmed by the chronicle of the Spanish missionary Felipe de Pomares, who spoke in the 17th century about the fate of the Inca prince, who confessed to his Spanish wife Maria de Esquivel about the mission “sent to him by the gods”: to preserve the most valuable treasures of his ancestors.

Blindfolding his wife, the prince led her through one of the palaces into the dungeon. After long walks they found themselves in a huge hall. The prince removed the blindfold from his wife's eyes, and in the weak light of the torch she saw the golden statues of all twelve Inca kings, reaching the height of a teenager; a lot of gold and silver dishes, figurines of birds and animals made of gold. As a loyal subject of the king and a devout Catholic, Maria de Esquivel reported her husband to the Spanish authorities, telling in detail about her journey. But the prince, sensing evil, disappeared. The last thread that could lead to the underground labyrinth of the Incas was cut off.

Archaeologists have found a network of mysterious tunnels in Malta

In Malta, in the city of Valletta, archaeologists have found a network of underground tunnels. Now researchers are racking their brains: either this is an underground city of the Order of Malta, or an ancient water supply or sewer system.
For centuries, it was believed that Crusader knights had built an underground city on the Mediterranean island of Malta, and rumors circulated among the population about secret passages and military labyrinths of the Hospitaller Order.

Ar Dalam Cave

We were building a garage and found ancient tunnels
This winter, researchers discovered a network of tunnels beneath the historic center of the Maltese capital Valletta. These tunnels date back to the late 16th and early 17th centuries. It was then that the knights of one of the largest Christian military orders from the times of the Crusades of the 11th-13th centuries were strengthening Valletta to repel Muslim attacks.

“Many said that there were passages and even an entire underground city. But the question is - where were these tunnels? Did they even exist? Now we think we have found at least a small part of these underground structures,” said archaeologist Claude Borg, who took part in the excavations.

The tunnels were discovered on February 24 during archaeological exploration, which was carried out on Palace Square opposite the Palace of the Grand Master. The palace formerly belonged to the head of the Order of Malta, and today it houses the legislative institutions and the presidency of Malta. Archaeological survey was carried out before the construction of the underground parking.

Mdina

Underground city or water supply?
First, workers found an underground reservoir directly under the square. Near its bottom, at a depth of about 12 m, they discovered a hole in the wall - the entrance to the tunnel. It ran under the square and then connected to other canals. An attempt to pass through these corridors was unsuccessful - they were blocked. All the corridors found have a vault high enough for an adult to easily walk through. However, researchers believe that this is only part of an extensive plumbing system.

Restoration architect Edward Said of Fondazzjoni Wirt Artna considers this discovery “just the tip of the iceberg.” In his opinion, the found tunnels are part of the water supply and sewerage system, which also includes corridors where those who monitored the tunnels and kept them in order could walk.

Construction of Valletta
The Order of Malta, founded in 1099, became famous for its victories over Muslims during the Crusades. In 1530, Holy Roman Emperor Charles V gave the island of Malta to the knights. In 1565, the order, under the leadership of the Grand Master of La Valletta, was attacked by the Ottoman Turks, but managed to withstand the Great Siege of Malta.

However, this military experience led them to begin building a fortress in Malta, named after the Master of Valletta. The fortification was built on a hill, but there were not enough natural sources of water there. According to Sed, the main goal of the city builders was to provide for themselves necessary supplies in case of future sieges.

Saint Paul's Cave

“They soon realized that the rainwater and springs they had at their disposal would not be enough,” the architect noted.

Aqueduct and water supply
Therefore, the builders built an aqueduct, the remains of which have survived to this day: water entered the city from a valley located to the west of Valletta. The location of the tunnels under Palace Square also confirms the idea that they were built specifically as a water supply system. Probably, the large fountain on Palace Square was supplied through underground channels and a reservoir. When the British dominated the island (1814−1964), the fountain was demolished.

End
How the knights left
In 1798, Napoleon expelled the knights from Malta. Now the Order of Malta continues to exist, but its residence is in Rome.
“The fountain was quite an important source of water for the people of the city,” Borg noted.

As Sed said, archaeologists found the remains of centuries-old lead pipes. The corridors connected to this tunnel may have been service passages used by plumbing engineers or so-called fontaniers.

“The fountain maintenance engineer, along with a team of workers, had to check the system and keep the fountain in good condition. They also turned off the fountain at night,” Sed said.

Didn't the underground city exist?
Stories about secret military passages, according to Sed, have more substance. Under the fortress walls there could indeed be secret corridors for warriors. However, according to Sed, most of the legends about the underground city are actually stories about the water supply and sewerage system.

According to the researcher, Valletta's pipeline system was very progressive for its time. If, for example, we compare Valletta with such major cities At that time, like London or Vienna, the Maltese city of the 16th-17th centuries was much cleaner, while others were literally drowned in dirt.

Following these findings, the Maltese government announced that construction of the underground car park would be postponed. They are planning to install a new fountain in the square, and the tunnels, Sed hopes, will subsequently be open to the general public.

Mexico. Mitla. Mayan underground structures

According to participants, these structures have a high quality finish and are more like a bunker. They also notice that from some details it can be judged that the Indians did not build, but only restored one of these structures from blocks lying around in the vicinity.

Underground Giza

The pyramids, the sphinx, and the ruins of ancient temples on the Giza plateau have captured the imagination of people for more than one millennium. And here is a new discovery. It has been established that huge, completely unexplored underground structures are hidden under the pyramids. Scientists suggest that the network of tunnels could extend for tens of kilometers.

While studying one of the tombs, scientists accidentally leaned on the wall, and the rock collapsed. Archaeologists have found the beginning of one of the tunnels. Later it was believed that the tunnels penetrated the entire Giza plateau, on which the great pyramids stood. Egypt's chief custodian of antiquities said that a group of local and foreign archaeologists have begun work on drawing up a kind of map of the underground passages under the pyramids. The work is carried out both on the ground and from the air using aerial photography. Studying the tunnels will allow you to take a fresh look at the entire Giza pyramid complex.

There are about 300 archaeological expeditions in Egypt. Their goal is to study and preserve already found objects. Now several groups of scientists are excavating a unique temple. It may even eclipse the famous temple in Luxor. There is reason to believe that underground there is a huge, previously unknown complex of buildings, palaces and temples. A big obstacle for scientists is that houses, roads and communications have already been built on the lands that covered these unique structures.

Since the declassification of the new deep radar 2 years ago, information about underground complexes and labyrinths has begun to appear from many places around the world. In places like Guatemala in South America, tunnels have been documented under the Tikal complex, leading 800 kilometers across the country. Researchers note that it is possible that with the help of these tunnels the Mayans avoided the complete destruction of their culture.

In early 1978, a similar radar (SIRA) was deployed in Egypt and incredible underground complexes were discovered. Egyptian pyramids. A research agreement was signed with Egyptian President Sadat, and this secret project has been ongoing for 3 decades.

Dungeons Kolobros

The Huaraz Plateau in the Western Cordillera has long been considered the secret refuge of Peruvian sorcerers. They say they can summon the spirits of the dead and materialize them. They can sharply increase and decrease the temperature of the surrounding air, which is necessary for the appearance of “shining carts driven by heavenly patrons.” Unfortunately, few foreigners managed to become participants in these magical rituals. One of them, the Englishman Joseph Ferrier, visited the mysterious underground settlement of Kolobros in 1922. And he was so shocked by what he saw that he was not too lazy to write a lengthy essay for the British Pathfinder magazine, preceded by an oath: “I vouch for the absolute truthfulness of what was stated.”

Joseph Ferrier is silent about how he managed to become a guest of a system of underground labyrinths forbidden to outsiders, “very confusing and cramped, almost unsuitable for free breathing and movement, but with rooms in which they are forced to live from birth to death. Because the life of each hereditary sorcerer has a special meaning that is not found anywhere else except on the local plateau.” What is this meaning? According to Ferrier, the following:

“Underground sorcerers do not draw a line between the world of the living and the world of the dead. They believe that both the living and the dead are only spirits. The only difference is that until the moment of death, the spirit of each of us languishes in a bodily shell. After death, it is released, becoming a spirit outside the body. Therefore, by using special techniques, sorcerers ensure that spirits who have taken on flesh can be close to us, among us. You may not believe it, but copies of these once living creatures are found in labyrinths, walking among the living. I myself have repeatedly confused phantoms with people. Only the sorcerers of Kolobros do not confuse.”

Rituals of materialization, the creation of phantoms, are practiced in a large hall shaped like an isosceles triangle. The walls and ceiling are covered with copper plates. The floor is paved with wedge-shaped bronze slabs.

“As soon as I crossed the threshold of this ritual room,” writes Ferrier, “I immediately received eight or ten electric shocks. Doubts disappeared. The metallized room was not much different from the metallized internal volume of a capacitor jar, and, apparently, was needed by sorcerers-mediums for their afterlife rites. I was convinced of this when they stood up in their loincloths, clasped their hands, and began to sing without words. There was a buzzing in my ears. I bit my tongue when I saw thin silver hoops begin to rotate around the heads of the sorcerers, scattering wet, cold sparkles. Sequins fell onto the copper underfoot, forming a kind of cobweb, red as blood. From the web slowly sprouted faintly visible semblances of human bodies. They stood, vibrating unsteadily from the drafts of the galleries. The sorcerers, having opened their hands and stopped singing, began to dance and rub the resin pillars installed in the center of the hall with scraps of wool. Several minutes passed. The air became saturated with electricity and began to flicker.

Having found the power of speech, I asked the sorcerer Aotuk, what will happen next? Aotuk said that further the shadows of the summoned dead will become solid, suitable for being in our world.” The sorcerers of the Kolobros dungeon have achieved the impossible. Obeying the most ancient magical techniques, the discharged, light as smoke, shadows became completely indistinguishable from people - thinking, with beating hearts, capable of lifting and carrying weights weighing up to ten kilograms, sometimes more. The rituals of “humanizing disembodied spirits” seemed to Ferrier to be similar to European medieval rituals of evoking the dead. Whether this is so can be judged from an excerpt from the essay:

“The most dangerous ritual for sorcerers, luring the dead, takes a lot of bodily strength. The Sabbath is best performed during the period of time between the autumn equinox and the winter solstice. Magical New Year in the Kolobros labyrinths, it begins on November 1 with a “silent supper” around an altar table covered with a triangular canvas on which there is a tin cup, a black cord and censer, an iron trident and knife, an hourglass, and seven burning candles.

Each sorcerer wears a protective golden pictogram on his chest in the shape of a grinning skull framed by four lead bones. As soon as it is closer to midnight, the upper vessel of the clock is freed from sand, the sorcerers light incense and begin to invite guests to a meal. When they approach, the trident begins to flash blue, the knife - red. The cord burns out completely. A flame emerges from the floor, following the contours of the Egyptian holy cross, symbolizing eternal life. Throwing a wooden skull and bones into the fire - the sign of Osiris - the sorcerers loudly exclaim: “Rise from the dead!” The chief sorcerer pierces the flaming cross with a glowing trident. The flame immediately goes out. The candles go out too. Silence, saturated with the smell of incense, falls. A strong phosphorescent glow spreads under the ceiling.

“Go away, go away, shadows of the departed. We will not let you near us until you become alive to us. Let there be agreement between us. Let it be!” - the sorcerers shout deafeningly. There are no more shadows. Instead of shadows, there are their detailed bodily repetitions, which can be consulted when important decisions need to be made.

Why do underground sorcerers prefer loincloths as clothing, you ask? Because negotiations with the resurrected ones thin the fabrics of clothes, no matter how good the fabrics are. I had a new linen suit. A few conversations with the resurrected, a few touches to them - and my suit became unusable, as happens under the influence of decay.”

Ferrier argues that the resurrected are not eternal. Each stays among the sorcerers of Kolobros for at most a year: “When the figure of the “neighbor” fades, when his internal energy is depleted, a ritual of returning to the shadows is arranged for him - a quick, purely formal one. How else? Knowledge has been gained. "Neighbor" is not needed. No matter how much the sorcerers wish, he will not return again.” However, it is from this fleeting rite that the main rite - the heavenly carts - begins. Ferrier does not write anything about the magical components of this action. He only reports that he saw how in the sky above the Huaraz plateau “with a terrible roar and rattle, fiery wheels rushed by and crashed into the edge of the Kolobros Canyon.” The sorcerers did not allow him to meet with the “gods of the seventh heaven,” citing the fact that mere mortals cannot communicate with immortals. To Ferrier’s objection that the sorcerers themselves, being mortal, still meet with the heavenly gods, the inhabitants of Kolobros replied that contacts are not frequent, they are carried out only on the initiative of immortals, who make meetings safe. Characterizing the level of knowledge of the gods, Ferrier says that they have gone so far ahead that “they have long forgotten what the best minds of humanity are just beginning to ponder.” Nowadays, even experienced speleologists do not risk visiting the labyrinths of Kolobros. One of them, American Michael Stern, dreams of visiting there. The expedition is planned for the summer of 2008, not paying attention to the increasing frequency of natural anomalies. These include local earthquakes, night-time above-ground glows, mud geysers in the area of ​​labyrinths, flights of fireballs, and “landings” of ghosts with pear-shaped heads. Local residents have no doubt that the dungeons of Kolobros are still inhabited. The way there is forbidden to strangers without the knowledge of the owners. Stern persists: “I am not a slave to superstition, I do not believe in sorcerers. For me, Kolobros is just a system of deep, difficult-to-pass caves, nothing more.” At the beginning of the last century, Joseph Ferrier also thought so...

Agarti (Agartha) - underground country

The only and still unconfirmed sources of information about the mysterious Agharti remain the publication of the Pole F. Ossendowski, a member of the Council of Ministers in the Kolchak government, who served during the period of civil war in the Siberian government, the post of director of the Credit Chancellery2, who subsequently fled to Mongolia, and, published twelve years earlier, the work of Saint-Yves d'Alveidre "Mission of India". Both authors claim the existence of the underworld - a spiritual center that is of non-human origin, and preserves the Primordial wisdom, passing it down through the centuries from generation to generation by secret societies. The inhabitants of the underworld are far superior to humanity in their technical development, have mastered unknown energies and are connected to all continents through underground passages. A comparative analysis of both versions of the myth of Agharti was carried out in his work “King of the World” by the French scientist Rene Guenon: “If there really are two versions of this story, originating from sources very distant from each other, then it was interesting to find them and conduct a thorough comparison.”

The French esoteric thinker, Marquis Saint-Yves d'Alveidre (1842-1909) left a noticeable mark on history by writing books about occult ancient history3 and formulating a new universal law of history and human society, which he called “Synarchy”. The ideas of a new world order, set forth in the teachings of Saint-Yves "Synarchy", attracted the attention of future leaders of the National Socialist Party in Germany. According to Saint-Yves, all information about Agartha was received by him “from the Afghan prince Kharji Sharif, the envoy of the World Occult Government” and the center of Agartha is located in the Himalayas. This is an entire cave center with a population of 20 million people - “the most secret sanctuary of the Earth”, storing in its depths the chronicles of humanity for the entire time of its evolution on this earth over 556 centuries, recorded on stone tablets4. The chronology of humanity and the antiquity of the teachings of Saint-Yves, based on Indian sources, traces back to the era of the progenitor of mankind, the legendary Manu, i.e. 55,647 years ago. In his literary work, aimed, as he wrote, “at educated people, the most enlightened secular people and statesmen,” Saint-Yves describes in detail and convincingly government structure Agharti gives quite original details, for example, such as:

“The modern mystical name of the Sanctuary of the Cycle of Rama was given to it approximately 5100 years ago, after the schism of Irshu. This name is "Agartha", which means: "inaccessible to violence", "unattainable to Anarchy." It is enough for my readers to know that in some regions of the Himalayas, among the 22 temples representing the 22 arcana of Hermes and the 22 letters of some sacred alphabets, Agartha constitutes the mystical Zero (0). "Unfindable."
* “None of our terrible systems of punishment are practiced in Agartha, and there are no prisons. There is no death penalty. Beggary, prostitution, drunkenness, and fierce individualism are completely unknown in Agharti. The division into castes is unknown.”
* “Among the tribes expelled from the great University (Agartha) there is one wandering tribe, which, since the 15th century, has been showing all of Europe its strange experiments. This is the true origin of the gypsies (Bohami - in Sanskrit, “Get away from me”).
* Agartha can monitor Souls on all ascending stages of the worlds up to the extreme limits of our solar system. During some cosmic periods one can see and speak with the dead. This is one of the secrets of the ancient Cult of Ancestors.”
* The sages of Agartha “tested the boundaries of the last flood on our Planet and determined the possible starting point of its resumption in thirteen or fourteen centuries.”
* “The founder of Buddhism, Shakyamuni, received initiation into the Sanctuary of Agartta, but he was unable to remove his notes from Agartta and subsequently dictated to his first disciples only what his memory was capable of retaining.”
* “Not a single initiate can take away from Agartha the original texts of her scientific works, for, as I have already said, they are engraved on stone in the form of signs incomprehensible to the crowd. The threshold of the Sanctuary is inaccessible without the will of the student. Its basement floor is built magically, in various ways, in which the Divine word plays a role, as in all ancient temples.”
* “Sacred texts, due to political conditions, were everywhere systematically changed, with the exception of Agartha alone, where all the lost secrets of the Hebrew-Egyptian text of our own Holy Scriptures and the keys to their mysteries were preserved"

Saint-Yves does not answer the question of where Agartha is located; the text contains only one indirect indication that symbolically Agartha’s head is in contact with Afghanistan, and its legs, i.e. rests its base on Burman. This territory corresponds to the region Himalayan mountains, little explored at that time. A striking description of the most secret sanctuary on Earth, containing lost ancient knowledge, subsequently inspired the search for this secret sanctuary in Tibet, both by various scientists and adventurers, and by government officials. different countries, planning to send expeditions to little-explored areas of Central Asia, in particular to establish an alliance with Agartha.
