Hyperborea. Secrets of the Aryan civilization. What was Hyperborea like - the ancient homeland of the Slavs? Preface by O.V. Stukova

We are the sons of great Rus', which was created from the north.

Veles's book

Our throat will let go of silence, Our weakness will melt like a shadow,

And the reward for the nights of despair will be the Eternal Polar Day...

V.S. Vysotsky

Ancient written sources have brought down to our times information about an amazing country - Daariya, which was located at the North Pole and was the ancestral home of the ancient Slavic-Aryans.

Zoroastrian-Mazdean legends say that “many, many millennia ago, near the North Sea, where the Arctic belt is now located, there was a different climate, similar to the climate of southern European countries - Greece, Italy and Lebanon.” The Avesta, an Iranian monument of Zoroastrianism, tells of the "beginning of the world" where the sun, Khvar, never sets, where "... the day is that which is the year," and mentions Mount High Khara, which stretches "throughout the whole earth from West to East" (now this ridge is located at the bottom of the Arctic Ocean).

This wonderful country was located, as stated by the Indian scientist Balgangadhar Tilak (1856-1920) in his book “The Arctic Homeland in the Vedas” (1903) and the Russian biologist E. Elachich (“The Far North as the Cradle of Humankind.” St. Petersburg, 1910), in Arctic, and it was the ancestral home of the Slavic-Aryans.

Another collection of ancient legends, the Indian epic “Mahabharata,” speaks of the high Mount Meru, which was located on the northern edge of the world: “Here, a year is a day, divided in half into day and night. Above the mountain hangs motionless Dhruva (the North Star), around which the stars move: the Seven Rishas (Ursa Major), Arundhati (Cassiopeia) and others.” In India, as you know, these constellations are not visible; they can only be observed in northern latitudes.

Many peoples of the world adopted the legend of a flying serpent-dragon stealing the sun from the ancient Slavic-Aryans. The ancient Vedas tell how “the evil Vritra, or Vala, who stole the sun and hid it in underground strongholds, assigned terrible snakes to guard this sun.” And when the sun goes below the horizon and does not rise again - it was Vala who stole it and hid it - then the long polar night begins. It is at this time that a huge sparkling, constantly writhing serpent appears in the sky above the North Pole - the northern lights. This unusual phenomenon can be observed, as is generally known, only in the northern, that is, Slavic-Aryan lands. The famous Norwegian explorer of the Far North, Nansen (1861-1930), describes it as follows: “... the radiance twisted like a fiery serpent across the entire sky, with its tail ending only 10 degrees above the horizon in the north. From here the radiance turned to the east, scattering itself in several wide stripes, suddenly changing direction and bent into an arc. And again a turn: the radiance turned to the west where it exactly curled up into a ball, from which it was again scattered in several branches throughout the sky.”

We find information about “brilliant water-waters born of a rainbow” - the northern lights, about a fertile climate, about the absence of cold and hot winds, about forests and fields rich in fruits and herds of antelopes on these beautiful lands. This country occupied the White Island - Shvetadvipa, which was located in the northern part of the Sea of ​​Milk (the waters of the Arctic, as is known, have a characteristic milky white color). The island was visible from Mount Meru: “there lived fragrant... white men, removed from all evil..., indifferent to honor and dishonor, marvelous in appearance, full of vitality; ...They lovingly served God, who spread out the Universe... These people were distinguished by the greatest justice and lived much longer than all other mortals - a whole thousand years. They ate only fruits, but could maintain vitality without eating any food at all.”

The book of Manu, the Progenitor of people, says that the country of origin of humanity, Narabgu, bore the original name Aryavarta, or the Land of Good.

In the Avesta, God warns the Aryan leader Imma (Manu) about the death of this paradise: “Imma, noble son of Vivanghata! Disastrous winters will descend on the earth, they will bring snow 14 fingers deep even on the highest mountain peaks. And all three kinds of animals will perish: both those that live in the high mountains and those that live in the deep valleys. Therefore, make Vara with four corners and a large length on each side. And gather everyone there: sheep, cows, birds, dogs, and red flaming fire.”

Imma do just that. He built a large Vara, gathered people, animals and plant seeds there.

A similar description of the death of the original fertile ancestral home of the Slavic-Aryans is found in the Vedas. They say that the leader of the people, Manu, received a warning from God, who took the form of a huge Fish: “The waters will surge, flood the whole earth, destroy all living things, and from this I want to save you.” Heeding the warning, Manu builds a ship and collects all living things in it. The flood comes, the ship rises and floats. The fish draws him to the peak of a mountain protruding from under the water, near which the ship stops; here Manu waits for the waters to recede and the flood to end.

Yu.P. Mirolyubov (1892-1970) conveys “The Tale of Grandmother Varvara”: “When the Land of Oiraz perished in fire and water, snow and ice, Tsar Svarog with the 12 Tsars Svarozhich saved everyone who listened. The disobedient ones all died. The Oirazy sailed into a storm on the sea and sailed, as Tsar Svarog showed with his Trident, all at noon and at noon. They took with them only a few cows, horses and sheep, and poultry - chickens, geese, ducks. They sailed for a day or two until they found the mountains and the Green Land. And when they set sail, already in the morning I saw fog and clouds in the place where the Oiraz Land was. Birds flew above that fog and clouds. The Oyraz sailed to solid ground, and Tsar Svarog turned back, wanting to save whoever he could. However, when they sailed to the place where the Oiraz Land used to be, they found nothing. Only corpses, boards, and various trunks were still floating in the water. Oirazy cried and turned back.

Tsar Svarog appointed Tsar Ventyr over our Ancestors, and he himself with 12 younger kings sailed even further at noon to look for the Egyptian Land. He returned soon, but did not find Egypt. Tsar Svarog began to organize the Earth, resettle people, raise cows. Forbade me to eat meat for 3 years. Said again at noon to look for Egypt. That time I found it and taught people for 30 years how to sow wheat, how to plow, how to forge chablis. Meanwhile, the Rus settled down on Novaya Zemlya. Thirty Kings - Family members were above them. The elder Tsar Ventyr was in charge over them." Mirolyubov also noted that “The Land of Araz was in the north, and it was surrounded on all sides by the sea. This is what both Kobzar Oleksa and Prabka Varvara said. The mountains surrounding the Araz Land still remained in the form of islands: Novaya Zemlya, Franz Joseph Land... The Arazians had measures: they measured the Earth by the evening and morning shadows.”

Unfavorable conditions associated with a sharp deterioration in climate, rising ocean levels (“The Flood”) and tectonic movements accompanied by volcanic activity forced the Slavic-Aryans to leave the Arctic and move to more southern places. The Slavic-Aryan Vedas (“Vedas of Perun”) say that our ancestors “emerged from the sacred country of Daaria and moved along the Stone Belt (Ural Mountains) between the Eastern and Western seas to Russenia.”

The Mahabharata also tells about the resettlement of the Slavic-Aryans from Arctida to Kashmir (Kasmir) in the thick of the Light Mountains (“porridge”, common slav. - density; “kasa”, Sanskrit - light; “peace”, Sanskrit - mountain). : “The ancestor Brahma brought the Indians from the light of Mount Meru and, leading them through the waters of the Caspian Sea, left them in Kashmir to bear their burden, while he hid the Brahmans (clerics) in the sacred monastery of the ancient Rishis (teachers of mankind), located in the Himalayan mountains.” The very name of the Himalayas, translated from Sanskrit as “winter rookery”, comes from the ancient Russian words “winter lagi” - winter lies. The country occupying these mountains is called Nepal, that is, not scorched, not hot, in contrast to the arc of the Slavic-Aryan country, which also bears the Russian name Palestan, that is, scorched, hot camp. Hence the modern name - Palestine.

The northern country is also mentioned in the myths of Ancient Greece. Outlining the legend, Plutarch (1st century AD) writes that once upon a time, in time immemorial, the peace of the “golden age” was disturbed by the struggle for power between Zeus and his father Cronus, who was supported by the Titans. After the victory of Zeus, the titans, led by Cronus, went somewhere to the north and settled beyond the Kronian Sea on a large flowering island, where “the softness of the air was amazing.” Peace, culture, and art reigned in this country. The priests were engaged in natural science, studying books and writing, and philosophy. One of Plutarch’s heroes, who visited this country, received “as much knowledge in astronomy as a person who has studied geometry can achieve.”

Other myths of the ancient Greeks also tell about the distant northern country located “beyond Scythia”. The Scythians, in turn, talked about the northern lands, where “there lies a country that gives birth to abundant fruits, and in its groves live enlightened and happy people.” However, Herodotus (5th century BC) wrote that the poets Homer (c. 2nd millennium BC) and Hesiod (VIII-VII centuries BC) were the first to tell the world about the “happy northern people - Hyperboreans,” who lived behind the Riphean (Ural) mountains in the domains of the god of the north wind Boreas, that is, in the Far (hyper) north (Boreas). “They improve in justice, not eating meat, but eating the fruits of trees”” (Hellanicus); “They live on the edge of the earth under the protection of Apollo, not knowing war” (Greek poet Ferenik). And here are lines from Pindar’s ode about the happy life of this people, making glorious sacrifices to the Almighty: “There are endless holidays, hymns are heard that delight the heart of Apollo, and he laughs... The cult of the muses is not alien to the Hyperboreans, choirs of young girls gather from everywhere for... sweet sounds flutes, and, crowned with a golden laurel, they indulge in the joy of the holidays. This bright tribe knows neither illness nor the weakness of age. They live far from hard work and battles...”

In the poem "Arimaspeia" Aristius (7th century BC) described an attempt to reach the country of the Hyperboreans. Following this poetic work, Herodotus clarifies that “above the Issedons live one-eyed men - Arimaspes. Above them live the vultures guarding the gold, and above these live the Hyperboreans, reaching the sea.”

Pliny the Elder (1st century AD) also reported about Hyperboreans settling in the forests and groves of the north and feeding on tree fruits. At the same time, he argued that this is where the “rotation point of the world” is located and the sun sets only once a year.

The ancient Greek heroes Hercules and Perseus visited the land of the Hyperboreans. The latter, as you know, killed the Gorgon Medusa, who turned people into frozen statues, that is, into ice. The titanide Leto was also from the country of the Hyperboreans, who gave birth to Apollo and Artemis on the island of Delos. By the way, Apollo, before his accession to Delphi, which was also founded by the Hyperboreans, lived for a long time in this northern country and subsequently visited it several times.

The reliability of these legends is confirmed by the fact: Herodotus describes the graves of two Hyperboreans, Arga and Otis, who came here with the Titanide Leto, which he saw on the island of Delos. In the 20s of our century, French archaeologists actually discovered various remains of tombs of “Hyperborean maidens” on Delos.

The ancient Greek author Diodorus (1st century BC) also speaks about the closeness of the Greeks and Hyperboreans, who emphasizes that the Hyperboreans “have their own language but are very close to the Hellenes, and especially to the Athenians and Delians, maintaining this arrangement since ancient times "

The Scandinavian sagas also mention the “land of the blessed” located in the Arctic Ocean, which in the Finnish epic is called the Northern House - “Saraias”, Royal Light (“Sara” - king, “yas” - clear light).

On the famous map of Gerardus Mercator (1512-1594), compiled by him in the 16th century on the basis of ancient knowledge, the land around the “Archtic Pole” is clearly depicted - a large continent, divided by four wide river-straits into four parts-islands.

The continent is separated from Eurasia and America by the “Sea of ​​Ice”. Near the North Pole itself there is a high single mountain - “Black Rock”. The mountain range encircling almost the entire continent is drawn in detail. The rivers are depicted with branched deltas and channel bends, and a description of their flow regime is given. About one of them, the notes say that it “has five branches and, due to the narrowness and speed of the current, never freezes.” About another it is reported that “here the river divides into three branches and remains under ice for three months every year.”

The north of Europe is surprisingly clearly depicted for that time: Scandinavia, the Kola Peninsula, the islands of Novaya Zemlya and Spitsbergen; Greenland, Iceland and even the disappeared Friesland are clearly shown.

Scientists have no doubt that this map could not have been compiled by G. Mercator, but is a tracing paper from an older source, and the source map is from an even earlier source. There is also no doubt that such a map could only be compiled using remote sensing aerospace materials, based on spherical trigonometry. The English scientist C. Hengutz in his book “The Path of the Pole” (1987) writes: “... there is evidence that ancient maps were collected and studied in the great Library of Alexandria, from where copies of these maps were moved to other centers of enlightenment...” and further: “... The earth was mapped in detail by the 4th century BC. an unknown civilization that has reached a high technical level."

The chronicle of Arctic exploration speaks of a continent that once existed at the North Pole. So, in the XVII-XVIII centuries. Andreev Land was discovered at the mouth of the Kolyma; later, north of Spitsbergen - Gillis Land; in the Chukchi Sea - Peasant Island, found by the schooner of the same name. In 1811, north of the Novosibirsk archipelago, Yakov Sannikov noticed a large island, in 1886 E.V. Toll (1858-1902) described it, a story about four flat mountains with low foothills, clearly visible in clear sunny weather.

Nowadays, many polar pilots, in particular, the famous navigator V.I. Exactly, they described several islands in the Arctic Ocean, seen from the air, which, unfortunately, have not yet been found by seafaring researchers. Two unknown islands, located 150 km from the North Pole, were photographed by Soviet pilots several years ago, but ice hummocks and constant fog prevent them from approaching them by sea. How time is reflected in the nature of northern latitudes can be seen in the following examples: in 1823, the explorer of the Siberian North, Lieutenant Peter Anzhu (1796-1869), landed on Semenovsky Island in the Laptev Sea; Having measured the island, he wrote in his report that its length was 15 km. Less than a century later, in 1912, according to the testimony of sailors from the Voygan ship, this value became equal to only 5 km. In 1936, Soviet hydrographers noted the length of the island as 2 km, and in 1955 Semenovsky Island was not found at all: only a sandbank remained under water.

In the same way, by our time, another island has disappeared into the depths of the sea - Vasilevsky, the coastal cliff of which was photographed in 1915 by the Russian researcher L.S. Staronadomsky. Nothing remains in the sea of ​​the islands of Mercury, Figurina and Diomede, which were mapped in the 18th century.

This subsidence of the earth's crust in the North Pole region continues in our time. The length of the coastline of the islands of the Novosibirsk archipelago is decreasing: for example, Bolshoi Lyakhovsky Island is going under water, where the speed of the sea advance reaches 20-30 meters per year. Following the assessment of oceanologist N.N. Zubov (1885-1960), made on the basis of his observations, it can be said without exaggeration that in another 10-20 years this island will no longer exist - just as Vasilievsky Island, Sannikov Land, Gilles Land, Avdreev Land and other islands of the Siberian coast did not exist before. Arctic Ocean.

The common fate of these islands suggests that these are the remnants of the once large continent of Arctida, destroyed as a result of a general catastrophe that occurred, as the calendars of the Egyptians, Assyrians and Mayans indicate, in 11542 BC.

The underwater Lomonosov Ridge, discovered by the famous Soviet polar explorer Ya.Ya. Gakkel (1901-1965), stretches across the entire Arctic - from the shelf of the New Siberian Islands to the Ellesmere Islands in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. Its length is 1,700 kilometers, the peaks of the ridge rise 3, and sometimes 4 kilometers. From Wrangel Island to Ellesmere Island and Axel-Heiberg, under the waters of the Arctic Ocean, the Mendeleev Ridge stretches, discovered by Soviet polar explorers drifting at the SP-4 station in 1954. In length and height it is not inferior to the Lomonosov Ridge, and in the width of its base, reaching up to 900 kilometers, it even surpasses it.

On the tops of the Lomonosov and Mendeleev ridges, wide terraces were discovered, most likely formed by waves, although now these peaks are submerged to a depth of about a kilometer. Flat-topped mountains formed from atolls are found here - guyots and sunken volcanic islands. The dredges lifted jackdaws, rubble, boulders, gravel, and sand from the ridges. According to many signs, these continental sediments were formed here, in the central Arctic.

Map of underwater ridges of the Arctic region

Back in 1935, Professor A.I. Tolmachev publishes a book dedicated to comparing the plants of central Taimyr with the plants of Arctic America and Chukotka. This study revealed “the impossibility of connecting the Taimyr flora with the Canadian flora through the Chukchi flora,” and that it had great similarities with the flora of Arctic America. This is another confirmation of the existence of a large continent in the Arctic Ocean, providing a connection between the floras of Taimyr and Canada. The existence of Arctida is also indicated by data obtained by hydrobiologists, ornithologists, and specialists in marine mammals and mollusks.

According to Ya.Ya. Gakkel, this “Arctic bridge” existed 100 thousand years ago, and Professor A.I. Tolmachev believed that the exchange of plants between the north of the European continent and Arctic America took place until the end of the last glaciation. Marine geologists N.A. Belov and V.N. Lapin believe that certain parts of the Lomonosov and Mendeleev ridges were above water 16-18 thousand years ago. Academician A.F. Treshnikov (1914-1991) believes that parts of the Lomonosov Ridge could have reached the surface 8-18 thousand years ago. According to scientists - hydrobiologist Professor E.F. Guryanova and K.N. Nesis “...the barrier in the area of ​​the East Siberian Sea, the New Siberian Islands and Wrangel Island, that is, in the area of ​​the Lomonosov Ridge, existed for quite a long time and disappeared quite recently, at least in post-Littorian times,” which began only 2500 years ago.

The fact that grass grew on the lands of Arctida and that many animals lived, from giant mammoths to the smallest rodents, is evidenced by research by scientists from various fields. Mammoth tusks, bones of bulls and other large herbivores have been and will be found by bulldozer operators, radio operators, weather experts - in short, everyone who has worked or will work on the New Siberian Islands, Wrangel Island and Severnaya Zemlya.

The boundaries of finds of Paleolithic monuments are moving further and further to the north every year. Where it would seem that modern man cannot survive fully armed with science and technology, traces of our ancestors are found.

Distribution of glaciers in the northern hemisphere during the last glaciation. The North Pole and all lands of Siberia are free from continental ice

Findings by scientists from Yakutia and Magadan showed that man lived in the Far North of our country 5, 10, and 20 thousand years ago. Traces of human presence in Alaska, according to American scientists, date back even more anciently: 30, 40 and even 50 thousand years.

You can find a lot of evidence confirming the existence of a mild climate on the Arctic. This miracle of the protected land is explained not only by the fact that previously the Gulf Stream, whose water flow is 20 times higher than the total water flow of all rivers on the globe, carried its warm waters with a temperature of 20-28 degrees not to the island of Spitsbergen and Novaya Zemlya, as now, but to the North Pole, but also by the geomagnetic distribution of heat on the planet.

The geological record of the Earth suggests that for hundreds of thousands of years the north of Europe, North America, part of Asia and even Africa was occupied by continental ice - a powerful ice shell hundreds of meters thick. This ice sheet, similar to the modern ice of Antarctica and Greenland, has repeatedly changed its position on the planet in the past. At the same time, the climate of these regions also changed significantly - the lands of the Crimea and the North Caucasus in the past corresponded to the tundra, and in the modern tundra there was lush forest vegetation. Such changes were not associated with general warming throughout the Earth due to the accumulation of heat on the planet, that is, with the greenhouse effect in its modern sense. Significant climate changes occurred as a result of heat redistribution within the framework of the general and relatively constant heat balance of the planet. This is evidenced by numerous conclusions from scientific studies of the Earth’s paleomagnetism and its paleoclimate.

Scientists from many countries of the world, in particular, K. Birkenmaier from Poland, A. Nairn from Great Britain, studied the magnetization of ancient rocks, its magnitude and direction, which arose and left a mark in the rocks during their formation. These indicators indicate the geographical position of the magnetic poles, which, in turn, determine the climatic regions on the planet at different times. At the same time, the “drift” of the continents was taken into account, and magnetic-stratigraphic scales were compiled for the last millions of years of the Earth’s existence.

It turned out that the geomagnetic poles not only significantly changed their location on the planet, but also the magnetic field strength and even its polarity changed, that is, the North and South Pole changed places.

One of these inversions, which occurred about 65 million years ago, coincided with the death of dinosaurs and many other animal species. The last time it happened was about 800 thousand years ago.

Research using the “fossil compass” method also revealed that, following the movement of geomagnetic poles, the position of continental ice also changed. According to paleomagnetic data, there was a time when the magnetic pole was in the Sahara. In turn, paleoclimatic studies have confirmed the existence of sedimentary rocks of glacial origin in southern Algeria. Then the pole moved to the region of South Africa, to the modern equator, where traces of powerful glaciation were discovered: it was something similar to the modern ice dome of Antarctica. It was at this time that the lands of the modern tundras of the European North were distinguished by lush forest vegetation, and the level of the World Ocean just a few hundred thousand years ago was 150-200 m lower than today. At the same time, the Gulf Stream carried its life-giving waters to the Arctic, and the vast spaces of the current shelves were low-lying coastal plains. England was uniting with Europe, the English Channel and the North Sea did not exist. Asia and North America were connected by a land bridge in the region of Chukotka and Alaska. In northeastern Siberia, the land extended far to the North, and the current islands of Indonesia were connected to Southeast Asia. General warming in northern Europe and America began about 20 thousand years ago. At first it happened slowly, and the boundary of continental ice slowly retreated to the north. A sharp climate change occurred about 12 thousand years ago.

Over the next 4-5 thousand years, the ice in northern Europe and North America disappeared completely. Subarctic forests have again shifted by about 300 km. north of their current polar border, and in the 7th-5th millennium BC. temperatures in the north did not drop below 0 degrees Celsius even in January. Melting ice has led to a significant rise in sea levels. It was during this relatively recent time that the oceans and continents of the Earth acquired the shapes familiar to us.

The general conclusion of research using the “fossil compass” method suggests that previously the Earth’s rotation axis (geographic poles) did not coincide significantly with its geomagnetic axis (geomagnetic poles). At the same time, the precession of the rotation axis had little effect on the position of the planet relative to the Sun when orbiting around it, and therefore on the angles of incidence of solar rays on the Earth’s surface and on the amount of total solar radiation. At the same time, the magnetic poles and associated glaciers were much closer to the modern equator, and climatic thermal zones were located concentrically around them.

This means that general changes in the climate of the earth’s continents depend not only on the angles of incidence of the sun’s rays on them, but also to no less extent on changes in the position of the geomagnetic poles. It is these two reasons that determine the amount of heat received by the Earth.

A clear confirmation of the possibility of a significant discrepancy between the geographic and magnetic poles during the development of planets and the distribution of temperatures on them depending on the geomagnetic situation, and not just on the angles of incidence of solar rays on the surface of the planets, is information about the 8th and 9th planets of the solar system - Uranus and Neptune, obtained using the American Voyager 2 spacecraft. Information about Uranus was transmitted by the device in 1986, and about Neptune - in 1989.

It turned out that Uranus has a strong magnetic field, almost the same as that of the Earth, but the deviation of its magnetic axis from the geographic one is almost 60 degrees, while that of the Earth is now about 11 degrees.

The direction of Uranus’ rotation axis also turned out to be unusual: it revolves around the Sun “lying on its side.” It is also interesting that on Uranus it is coldest at the equator, although it is its daytime surface that is illuminated more than others by the rays of the Sun and therefore should be the warmest. However, of the geographic poles of Uranus, the one that is located on the unlit side of the planet, where the night has been going on for decades, is warmer.

A similar geomagnetic situation occurs on Neptune. All this is reminiscent of the climatic thermal situation on Earth in the distant past, when its geomagnetic pole and the associated ice dome were at the equator.

The research of our weather scientists also contains other evidence concerning the state of northern nature in the 10th-7th millennium BC, confirming the retreat of the glacier from here long before this time.

The message of Dr. Jones Hammer, who stated in 1993 at a press conference in Amsterdam that during his trip to the North Pole he discovered a polar city, is also very interesting: “There are houses, palaces, and places of worship there. The Eskimos could not have built such a city - this was the work of a highly developed civilization,” says Hammer.

In his opinion, 90 percent of buildings are hidden by eternal snow and ice. However, the tops of the houses are visible. Already the first surveys showed that the buildings are more than one thousand years old.

“Of course, it’s not easy to conduct archaeological excavations in the Arctic,” says Hammer. “Therefore, we know little about the unusual ice city and the civilization that built it. The architecture of the buildings, which we were able to partially see, is reminiscent of ancient Greek.

These houses and palaces are real art. We are sure of this. It remains a mystery why it was necessary to build the city in such harsh conditions for people’s lives. And also how did you manage to build it?

We cannot explain this..."

All the above-mentioned evidence confirms that on this Earth (planet) the ancestral home of the Slavic-Aryans (Race) is Arctida (Daaria), located at the north pole.

...And Niy and the Elements will destroy that land,

and she will hide in the depths of the Great Waters,

just like she hid in ancient times

in the depths of the northern waters is the Sacred Daaria.

Hyperborea (aka Arctida) is the foremother of all world culture, a country known to us from ancient manuscripts. Location - northern Europe. It is assumed that traces of this ancient civilization were found on the Kola Peninsula. There is no doubt that ancient Hyperborea is directly related to the ancient history of Russia, and the Russian people and their language are directly connected with the disappeared legendary country of the Hyperboreans. It is not without reason that Nostradamus in his “Centuries” referred to the Russians as “the Hyperborean people.”

According to reviews of ancient historians, Hyperborea was the foremother of all world culture. The wise Hyperboreans possessed a huge amount of knowledge, even more advanced than that of the ancient Greek civilization. It was the immigrants from Hyperborea, the Apollonian sages Abaris and Aristaeus (considered servants of Apollo), who taught the Greeks to compose poems and hymns, and for the first time discovered the basic wisdom, music, and philosophy. Under their leadership, the famous Delphic Temple was built...

Literally, “Hyperboreans” means “those who live beyond the Boreas (North Wind)”, or simply “those who live in the North”. Many ancient authors reported on the existence of Hyperborea and the Hyperboreans. One of the most authoritative scientists of the Ancient World, Pliny the Elder, wrote about the Hyperboreans as a real people who lived near the Arctic Circle and were connected with the Hellenes through the cult of Apollo the Hyperborean. By the way, Hercules and Perseus, like Apollo, had the epithet - Hyperborean...

This is what Pliny the Elder says verbatim about the existence of Hyperborea in Natural History (IV, 26): “Behind these [Rhipaean] mountains, on the other side of Aquilon, live a happy people called Hyperboreans, reaching very advanced years and glorified by wonderful legends . They believe that there are loops of the world and the extreme limits of the revolution of the luminaries. The sun shines there for half a year, and this is only one day when the sun does not hide (as the ignorant would think) from the spring equinox to the autumn equinox, the luminaries there only rise once a year at the summer solstice, and they set only at the winter solstice. This country is entirely in the sun, with a fertile climate and devoid of any harmful wind. The homes for these inhabitants are groves and forests; the cult of the Gods is carried out by individuals and the whole society; discord is unknown there and all sorts of diseases. Death comes there only from satiety with life.<...>There is no doubt about the existence of this people."

Even from this small passage from Natural History it is not difficult to get a clear idea of ​​Hyperborea. First - and this is the most important thing - it was located where the Sun may not set for several months. In other words, we can only talk about the circumpolar regions, those that in Russian folklore were called the Sunflower Kingdom.

Another important circumstance: the climate in the North of Eurasia in those days was completely different. This is confirmed by the latest comprehensive studies conducted recently in the north of Scotland under an international program: they showed that 4 thousand years ago the climate at this latitude was comparable to the Mediterranean, and a large number of heat-loving animals lived here.

However, even earlier, Russian oceanographers and paleontologists established that in the 30-15th millennium BC. The Arctic climate was quite mild, and the Arctic Ocean was warm, despite the presence of glaciers on the continent. American and Canadian scientists came to approximately the same conclusions and chronological framework. In their opinion, during the Wisconsin glaciation, in the center of the Arctic Ocean there was a zone of temperate climate, favorable for flora and fauna that could not exist in the circumpolar and polar territories of North America.

The main confirmation of the indisputable fact of a favorable climatic situation is the annual migration of migratory birds to the North - a genetically programmed memory of the warm Ancestral Home. Indirect evidence in favor of the existence of an ancient highly developed civilization in the northern latitudes can be provided by powerful stone structures and other megalithic monuments located everywhere here (the famous cromlech of Stonehenge in England, the alley of menhirs in French Brittany, the stone labyrinths of Solovki and the Kola Peninsula).

A map of G. Mercator, the most famous cartographer of all times, who relied on some ancient knowledge, has been preserved, where Hyperborea is depicted as a huge Arctic continent with a high mountain (Meru) in the middle.

Despite the meager information of historians, the ancient world had extensive ideas and important details about the life and morals of the Hyperboreans. And all because the roots of long-standing and close ties with them go back to the ancient community of Proto-Indo-European civilization, naturally connected with both the Arctic Circle and the “end of the earth” - the northern coastline of Eurasia and ancient continental and island culture. It was here, as Aeschylus writes: “at the edge of the earth”, “in the deserted desert of the wild Scythians” - by order of Zeus, the rebellious Prometheus was chained to a rock: contrary to the prohibition of the Gods, he gave people fire, discovered the secret of the movement of stars and luminaries, taught the art of addition letters, agriculture and sailing.

However, the region where Prometheus languished, tormented by the dragon-like kite, until Hercules freed him (who received the epithet Hyperborean for this) was not always so deserted and homeless. Everything looked different when, a little earlier, the famous hero of antiquity, Perseus, came here, to the edge of the Oikumene, to the Hyperboreans to fight the Gorgon Medusa and receive here magical winged sandals, for which he was also nicknamed the Hyperborean.

Apparently, it is not without reason that many ancient authors, including major ancient historians, persistently talk about the flying abilities of the Hyperboreans, that is, about their mastery of flight techniques. This is, however, how Lucian described them, not without irony. Could it be that the ancient inhabitants of the Arctic mastered aeronautics? Why not? After all, numerous images of possible aircraft - such as hot air balloons - have been preserved among the rock paintings of Lake Onega.

Archaeologists never cease to be amazed by the abundance of so-called “winged objects” that are constantly found in Eskimo burial grounds and date back to the most distant times in the history of the Arctic.

Here it is another symbol of Hyperborea! Made from walrus tusk (hence their amazing preservation), these outstretched wings, which do not fit into any catalogs, naturally suggest ancient flying devices. Subsequently, these symbols, passed on from generation to generation, spread throughout the world and became entrenched in almost all ancient cultures: Egyptian, Assyrian, Hittite, Persian, Aztec, Mayan, and so on - to Polynesia.

There is no doubt that ancient Hyperborea is directly related to the ancient history of Russia, and the Russian people and their language are directly connected with the legendary country of the Hyperboreans that disappeared or dissolved in the depths of the ocean and land. It is not without reason that Nostradamus in his “Centuries” referred to the Russians as “the Hyperborean people.” The refrain of Russian fairy tales about the Sunflower Kingdom, which is located far away, also represents memories of ancient times when our ancestors came into contact with the Hyperboreans and were themselves Hyperboreans. There are also more detailed descriptions of the Sunflower Kingdom. So, in the epic fairy tale from the collection of P.N. Rybnikov, it is told how the hero on a flying wooden eagle (a hint of the same flying Hyperboreans) flew to the Sunflower Kingdom:

He flew to the kingdom under the sun,
Gets off the eagle plane
And he began to walk around the kingdom,
Walk around Podsolnechny.
In this kingdom of the Sunflower
The tower has melted - gold tops,
The circle of this mansion was a white courtyard
About those twelve gates,
About those strict watchmen...

But the legendary Sunflower Kingdom also has a modern exact geographical address. One of the oldest pan-Indo-European names for the Sun is Kolo (hence “ring”, “wheel” and “bell”). In ancient times, it corresponded to the pagan solar deity Kolo-Kolyada, in whose honor a caroling holiday was celebrated (the day of the winter solar solstice) and archaic ritual songs were sung - carols, bearing the imprint of the ancient cosmist worldview:

... There are three golden-domed towers;
In the first chamber the month is young,
In the second mansion there is a red sun,
In the third chamber there are frequent asterisks.
When the month is young, it is our master.
The red sun is the hostess,
Often the stars are small.

It was from the name of the ancient Sun God Kolo-Kolyada that the name of the Kola River and the entire Kola Peninsula arose.

The cultural antiquity of the Soloveyskaya (Kola) land is evidenced by the stone labyrinths present here (up to 5 m in diameter), similar to those scattered throughout the Russian and European North with migration to the Cretan-Mycenaean (the famous labyrinth with the Minotaur), ancient Greek and other world cultures.

Many explanations have been proposed regarding the purpose of the Solovetsky stone spirals: burial grounds, altars, models of fishing traps. Latest in time: labyrinths - models of antennas for communication with extraterrestrial or parallel civilizations. The closest explanation to the truth of the meaning and purpose of Russian northern labyrinths was given by the formerly famous Russian science historian D.O. Svyatsky. In his opinion, the passages of the labyrinth, forcing the traveler to search for a way out for a long time and in vain and, finally, leading him out, are nothing more than a symbolization of the wandering of the Sun during the polar semi-annual night and semi-annual day in circles or, rather, in a large spiral , projected onto the vault of heaven.

Processions were probably organized in cult labyrinths to symbolically represent the wandering of the Sun. Russian northern labyrinths not only served for walking inside them, but also acted as a reminder diagram for conducting magical round dances.

Northern labyrinths are also characterized by the fact that next to them there are piles (pyramids) of stones. There are especially many of them in Russian Lapland, where their culture intersects with traditional Sami sanctuaries - seids. Like the Lovozero Tundra, they are found all over the world and, along with the classical Egyptian and Indian pyramids, as well as mounds, are symbolic reminders of the polar Ancestral Home and the universal Mount Meru, located at the North Pole. It is surprising that stone spiral labyrinths and pyramids have been preserved in the Russian North. Until recently, few people were interested in them, and the key to unraveling the secret meaning contained in them was lost.

More than 10 stone labyrinths have been found so far on the Kola Peninsula, mainly on the seashore. Most of those who have written about Russian labyrinths reject the very possibility of their rapprochement with the Cretan megaliths: the Cretans, they say, could not visit the Kola Peninsula, since it would have taken them several years to reach the Barents Sea along the Atlantic Ocean, bypassing Scandinavia, although Odysseus, as is known, reached to Ithaca at least 10 years.

Meanwhile, nothing prevents us from imagining the process of spreading labyrinths in reverse order - not from South to North, but vice versa - from North to South. Indeed, the Cretans themselves, the creators of the Aegean civilization, are unlikely to have visited the Kola Peninsula, although this is not completely excluded, since it was part of the Hyperborea zone, which had constant contacts with the Mediterranean.

But the ancestors of the Cretans and Aegeans probably lived in northern Europe, including the Kola Peninsula, where they left traces of labyrinths that have survived to this day, prototypes of all subsequent structures of this kind. The path “from the Varangians to the Greeks” was not laid on the verge of the 1st and 2nd millennia AD, connecting Scandinavia, Rus' and Byzantium for a short time. It has existed from time immemorial, serving as a natural migration bridge between the North and the South.

So the ancestors of modern peoples left one after another across this “bridge” - each in their own time, each in their own direction. And they were forced to do this by an unprecedented climate catastrophe associated with a sharp cold snap and caused by a shift in the earth’s axis and, consequently, the poles.

Many believe that the highly developed civilization of Hyperborea, which perished as a result of a climate cataclysm, left behind descendants in the form of the Aryans. The search for Hyperborea is akin to the search for the lost Atlantis, with the only difference that it is believed that part of the land still remains from the sunken Hyperborea - this is the north of present-day Russia.

The question of the disappeared northern country has always worried scientists.
How did Hyperborea die?
What do the sources of ancient civilizations say?
How did the ancestors of the Slavs survive the global catastrophe?
What places could the survivors go to?

The Italian historian Mavro Orbini in his book “The Slavic Kingdom” (1601) wrote: “The Slavic people are much older than the Egyptian pyramids and are so numerous that they populate half the world.” Although the written history of the people who lived before our era does not tell us anything, the traces of the most ancient culture in the Russian North are a scientific fact. The ancient Greek scientist and philosopher Plato wrote that the centuries-old roots of the Russian people originate in Arctida.

Evidence of the existence of the legendary Hyperborea. Mercator map

Medieval maps found in museums around the world show that Hyperborea was located on islands around the modern North Pole. Some scientists are sure that it also occupied Greenland and Scandinavia.

The fact of the existence of the Slavic ancestral home is evidenced by the works of the greatest traveler and cartographer of the 16th century, Gerardus Mercator. No one has ever doubted his discoveries, even in our time. How this man could draw an accurate map of Hyperborea remains a mystery. Indeed, by the time it was compiled (1595), this territory no longer existed.

The cartographer described the legendary northern country as a rounded continent, divided by huge rivers into four equal parts. Studying the map, modern scientists recognize the territory of the Arctic Ocean in Arctida. An accurate description of the northern coast of America and Eurasia fully confirms the reliability of Mercator's work. Engravings of ancient peoples found by archaeologists also confirm the existence of Hyperborea. The map also features an image of Meru's ancestral mountain. This universal elevation was located at the North Pole. According to declassified information, a mountain was discovered under the waters of the Northern Ocean in Russia - a very high one, touching the ice cover. In addition, the ancient map depicts a strait connecting America and Asia. Interestingly, it was discovered by the Russian navigator Semyon Dezhnev only in 1648. 80 years later, this path was traversed again by a Russian expedition led by Vigus Bering. Subsequently, the strait was named in honor of the commander. How did Mercator know about the Bering Strait? How did it get on his map?

Proof of the existence of Hyperborea can also be found in the works of Yakov Gakkel, a famous Soviet cartographer and oceanographer. His research on the bottom of the Arctic Ocean confirms the existence of this civilization. According to the scientist, the descendants of the Hyperboreans were the Eastern and Western Slavs, who settled throughout the Scandinavian Peninsula, as well as in the northern part of continental Europe.

The disaster that befell the northern country

In the ancient myths of the peoples of the world, Hyperborea was spoken of as a “paradise land”. For example, the Hellenes called it that because it is located behind the north wind Boreas. They believed that it was the wise Hyperboreans who laid the foundation of modern civilization. Homer described Arctida as a highly developed civilization, and its representatives as giants with Slavic features. The ancient Roman polymath writer Pliny the Elder, who was considered one of the most impartial scientists of his time, called nationality real. “The civilization lives near the Polar Circle, has its own culture and is externally similar to the Hellenes. The Hyperboreans are a happy people, living into old age, with amazing legends. There the sun does not set beyond the horizon for six months. The whole country is flooded with sunshine. Beneficial climate, no cold wind. Groves and forests serve as dwellings for people. They are unknown to disease, strife, hatred. A person dies only when he is fed up with life,” wrote Pliny the Elder. But Hyperborea disappeared. What happened? Why did she go underwater?

Many peoples of Siberia have legends describing the disaster that befell the “paradise land.” Khanty, Mansi, Sakhalin Nivkhs, Nanais - all these peoples talk about the flood. But before this event there is fire from heaven. Then - a sharp cold snap, and ultimately - the death of all living things.

There is a version that before the “big water” there was a collision between the Earth and a meteorite. As a result, Hyperborea disappeared under water. However, at first it was part of the mainland. Then the entire territory went under water, with the exception of a few islands. Where did the Hyperboreans go? Scientists suggest that one part of the inhabitants of Hyperborea migrated to the southern lands. The other - to the territory of modern Germany, Poland and Belarus. Mixing with the indigenous population of nomadic tribes, new languages ​​and customs arose, and the cultural heritage changed.

The legends of the Russian Templars say that Lelya (once a satellite of the Earth), orbiting the planet in 7 days, fell onto its surface. But it was not by chance that he fell. It was destroyed in a space battle. It was this fall that caused the global catastrophe, as a result of which Hyperborea died. The earth's axis shifted, which entailed a change in climatic conditions, and the Hyperboreans migrated to other favorable places.

According to the astronomical calculations of the ancient Egyptians, as well as the Mayan calendar, the catastrophe that struck Hyperborea dates back to 11,542 BC. The Great Flood and a sharp change in climatic conditions forced our ancestors to leave their country and settle almost throughout the entire earth. Many teachings that have come down to us from antiquity mention people in the North who possessed enormous knowledge.

Other scientific evidence of the existence of Hyperborea. Climate

Paleontologists and oceanographers from Russia, the USA and Canada determined that the climatic conditions of the Arctic (from the 30th to the 15th millennium BC) were mild. The waters of the Arctic Ocean were warm; no permanent ice existed on the continent. The modern underwater Mendeleev and Lomonosov ridges rose above the water surface of the ocean. The North Pole had a temperate climate that was favorable for human life.

Migratory birds and their migration

The fact that the Arctic climate was favorable in the past is evidenced by the annual migrations of migratory birds. This can be explained by a genetically programmed memory of a warm ancestral home. The current state of the Arctic Ocean floor shows that it used to be a huge plateau with river valleys. Scientists believe that this is a continent that once rose above the ocean. If the map of the Arctic Ocean floor is superimposed on the map of Gerard Mercator, the coincidences will be amazing. Therefore, this cannot be called a simple coincidence.

Stone structures

The fact that an ancient highly developed civilization existed in the northern latitudes is evidenced by stone structures. Thus, a labyrinth was discovered on the coast of Novaya Zemlya. This is an exceptional find, because such structures have never been discovered in these latitudes. Scientists continue to find traces of the life of ancient civilizations all over the Earth, starting from the Leningrad region, Yakutia and ending with Novaya Zemlya.

Searches for a legendary civilization

As history shows, such famous figures as Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler believed in the existence of Hyperborea. The German leader even sent several expeditions to search for her. The Soviet Union did not lag behind Germany. By order of Dzerzhinsky, three expeditions were organized. Two of them disappeared (most likely died), but one returned to Moscow with evidence of the existence of Hyperborea. But for unknown reasons, the leader of the expedition, Barchenko, was soon shot, and the rest of his group disappeared without a trace. What were all these expeditions looking for? Just archaeological interest? No. Most likely, they needed the lost knowledge of the Hyperboreans. After all, the ancient inhabitants of the northern country could adapt the forces of nature to their benefit, for their needs.

All modern expeditions aimed at searching for Hyperborea, the ancient ancestral home of the Slavs, raise new questions. New evidence of the real existence of this country is emerging. But there are more and more mysteries. The main thing is that no one doubts that Arctida is related to the history of ancient Russia. No one doubts that the Russian people and their language are connected with this disappeared country. Time will pass, and scientists will find more evidence of the existence of the northern continent. This will change ideas about the last millennia in the history of all mankind. Perhaps the Hyperboreans will turn out to be not only the ancestors of the Slavs, but also the descendants of an extraterrestrial highly developed civilization. Time will show…

Part I. Behind the shadow of myths

The greatness of time is afraid of the pyramids,
everything else melts into the distance,
Only the invisible Autolycus,
draws a trace of history.

The boundaries of centuries are erased,
eras are foggy,
And the myths of ancient books -
as beautiful as gods.

It is tempting to view the distant past through the prism of myths. I ask my opponents not to be too zealous, because the author himself is not confident in his conclusions based on ancient legends.

Prehistoric history has been preserved in literary adaptations by ancient authors and in folk epics.

Myths are myths, and, for example, the ancient work about Troy and the war under its walls turned out to be pure truth in all its details. Thanks to archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann.

We also see it among the Vyatichi Slavs. Prince Gyurgiy and his ally Stoslav came to Moskov. Here, during Lent, a “strong lunch” took place. And then the chronicles became silent about Moscow. But many legends “About the conception of the city of Moscow” have been preserved not from Borovitsky, but from Tagansky, the hill, and long before Yuri Dolgoruky. On this hill, archaeologists have dug up no less than Schliemann at Troy.

As we see, myths can have a very real basis.

Let's enter the magical world of ancient legends and try to discern an era covered in the haze of time.

Myths and Hyperborea

There are many works that report on a mysterious people contemporary with the ancient Greeks. Greek thinkers called that people Hyperboreans, and report that they were in close contact with them, even learned from them. They adopted some things in religion. A whole cult of the god Apollo was compiled, connecting the Greeks with that mysterious people.

The ancients were convinced that the Greek sun god Apollo and his sister, the hunting goddess Artemis, came from distant Hyperborea. Their mother Leto lived here before moving to Greece. Hyperborean women helped Leto deliver her pregnancy and give birth to Artemis and Apollo. For some time, Apollo lived among the Hyperboreans and there he acquired a prophetic gift, although, according to myths, he did not possess this gift from birth.

Herodotus, Diodorus, Democritus, Pliny directly stated that their Greek civilization was “grown” by the Hyperborean, more ancient and highly developed.

In their myths, the Greeks sent Apollo to Hyperborea for wisdom on a silver arrow, and the people were taught by the Hyperboreans Abaris and Aristaeus, the servants of Apollo. Enlighteners had the gift of clairvoyance, endowed people with cultural values, music, philosophy, introduced them to the art of creating poems and hymns, and participated in the construction of the Delphic Temple with the symbolic center of the world, Omphalus.

Let's draw the first conclusions.

Conclusion one.

The Greeks and even the god Apollo constantly learned from someone and adopted knowledge. Against this background, statements like “all the wisdom of Europe from the ancient Greeks” are apparently a strong exaggeration.

Conclusion two.

Hyperborea is described in detail by the Greeks. All their myths speak of a blessed land of happy and wise people.

Conclusion three.

This wonderful country is practically contemporary with the creators of myths.

Scientists and Hyperborea.

Such a mythological heritage gave rise to the desire to find out where this earthly paradise was, if, of course, it existed in reality.

First, complete denial.

As usual, supporters of Hyperborea also had opponents.

The idea has been expressed that for several centuries swindlers in the person of the Druids instilled in the Greeks a myth about a country that did not exist in reality. However, this version does not explain the emergence of myths about an unknown northern country in ancient Indian and Persian epics (in Indian legends - Mahabharata, Rigveda, Purana, in Persian - Avesta, etc.). Similar myths are known among the modern peoples of the north of Russia. And paleoclimatologists have obtained interesting information. The results of well analyzes showed that in the period from 130 to 70 thousand years ago there was a warm climate in the north.

The real possibility of the existence of an unknown northern civilization is beginning to emerge. But based on the dating of the fertile climate, this supposed culture is clearly not contemporary with the ancient Greeks.

World ocean level. Chronology.

Mythological dictionaries call Hyperborea and its people mythical. The famous Mercator map adds mystery. The publication of the map dates back to the 16th century, but it is unclear when the topographic survey was carried out. For many thousands of years, the state of the Arctic Ocean has been significantly different from the map.

Over the past 500 thousand years, four great glaciations have occurred on earth. Even 30 thousand years ago, the thickness of the glacier at the latitude of Kyiv reached two kilometers, like today in Antarctica. In Europe, this last glacier began to melt about 18 thousand years ago.

Geochronologists have compiled a graph of possible changes in the level of the World Ocean. About 30 thousand years ago, thanks to the glaciation of the planet, the level of the World Ocean dropped by 100 meters! Subsequently, it slowly increased and about 15 thousand years ago it immediately rose by 20 meters. Finally, about 7 thousand years ago, the sea level rose abruptly by another 6 meters and remains approximately at this level to this day.

All changes in the level of the World Ocean are associated with ecological and climatic disasters, which are described in the myths and tales of the peoples of the world.

As we see, the legendary global flood took place in history, which means it could actually flood Mercator’s Hyperborea. According to the established dates, the period of the warm climate of the north and the beginning of the last glaciation are quite consistent. It remains a mystery when the authors of this knowledgeable map lived.

Two versions suggest themselves. First, information about the Hyperboreans came to the ancient Greeks in the form of myths of other peoples. The same thing happened in Asia. Someone brought their epic and over time it acquired a local flavor. Version two - if we agree that Hyperborea really existed, then we should look for it not in the north.

Where did the silver arrow take Apollo?

The earliest dating option for the Temple of Apollo at Delphi is the 2nd millennium BC. But at this time, in the north, the fertile islands had long since sunk, and the climate had changed. All that remains are modern rocky islands and a permafrost-covered mainland coastline. It’s unlikely that it occurred to Apollo to fly on ice, and what’s the point in that - everything interesting is already at the bottom. What then served as the basis for the myths, was it just the eternal dream of milk rivers with jelly banks?

Traces are real and myths.

Based on a generalization of ethnographic and historical material, Ph.D. S.V. Zharnikova localized the ancestral home of the Indo-Aryan peoples between the White Sea and the Northern Ridges, and from the east and west, the Ural Mountains and the Scandinavian Peninsula.

St. Petersburg scientists visited the uninhabited islands of the White Sea and discovered sanctuaries and pyramids. Whose? Who is the builder?

After the end of the Great Patriotic War, secret harbors of German submarines located in stone grottoes were discovered along the northern sea route. The Germans used ready-made grottoes. Conducting construction work secretly with the resources of that time was unrealistic. Who are the grotto builders? Another mystery.

In 2000, a megalithic sanctuary dedicated to the Sun God was found on the highest plateau of Khibiny. Members of the expedition claim that the central element of the sanctuary is exactly like the Omphalos in the Temple of Apollo at Delphi. Russian researchers called the find the “Kola Omphalus.”

It was here, according to supporters of northern Hyperborea, that a people was formed that became the progenitor of many nations. Those who reached the Sayan and Altai laid the foundation for the Turkic peoples; who remained on the territory of Eastern Europe became the basis of the Indo-European peoples, including the Slavs. Indirect confirmation of this is the myths of the Indo-Iranians, which tell about fair-faced sages who came from behind the northern mountains, and even the complete coincidence of the DNA of modern Russians with the DNA of 100 million Indian men. The Indians and I have the same ancestor, the same one who lived 5000±200 years ago on the Russian plain and in the steppes of southern Russia.

The exploration of the Russian north is just getting underway.

Despite the scant information from historians looking for Hyperborea in the Arctic, the ancient world had extensive ideas about the life of the Hyperboreans.

Pythia - who are they?

And here are the myths about direct contacts of the Greeks with the Hyperboreans.

A number of legends are associated with the Hyperboreans bringing crops to the island of Delos to Apollo. After the girls sent with gifts did not return home, the Hyperboreans began to leave gifts on the border of Greece (Plin. Nat. hist. IV 26; Herodot. IV 32 - 34). By the way, such arbitrariness over someone else’s freedom is not the first that happened in Delphi. Apollo himself appointed the first priests of his temple. The servants were Cretan sailors sailing past the island of Delos.

Now let's take a closer look at the legends.

The Greeks endowed the Hyperboreans with the gift of clairvoyance. Surviving Slavic sources say that their priests also possessed this gift.

Based on what has been said and taking into account that all this happens after the global flood, when Hyperborea is no longer in the north, we have the right to see the Slavs as farmers bringing gifts to the Greeks. The historian Rybakov and the geneticist Klyosov noticed these workers in Europe already 5 thousand years ago. Various Greek sources describe Scythian farmers living in the Black Sea and North Caucasus steppes. Interesting Scythians. Some call them nomads, and then others call them sedentary farmers, who very much resemble the Slavs. The Greeks did not think much about identifying their barbarian neighbors.

Here is the answer to who they were and where the girls with the gifts went. Stolen Hyperboreans, i.e. Slavic women were forced to serve as Pythia in the Delphic temple of Apollo for predictions, or they tried to get from them children with the hereditary gift of divination.

And on the Internet there is one broken record: “low-class Greek women were Pythia”! We read myths. The first Pythia were virgins. After seducing the young priestess, local old women began to be appointed Pythia.

Greek women predicted only in a state of drug intoxication from the gas escaping from the cleft of the mountain in the temple of Apollo. And the Hyperborean girls apparently could predict without the drug, and that’s why they paid with freedom.

Before being assigned to work in the temple of Apollo, local women were required to undergo a casting for professional suitability. Not every applicant had the necessary data for divination. These details are reported by Plutarch, who himself was for some time a minister of the temple at Delphi.

The clairvoyant gas in the Temple of Apollo on the island of Delos was recently examined by American scientists. The result was published in the journal Geology. It is a mixture of hydrocarbon gases with a significant proportion of ethylene. Inhaling such a mixture, any person falls into a trance and utters all sorts of words. Delphic gases have the most powerful narcotic effect on women. Now it’s clear why ladies were chosen to divine.

Delphic phenomenon.

The Pythia was predicted to be 1400 years old. For charlatanism without exposure, something is too much. The last of the prophecies was given by the Delphic oracle in 392 AD - “accepted Christianity will destroy the Roman Empire.” The collapse of the empire, as is known, began in 395, i.e. three years after the prophecy.

Modern scientists have developed a different version of the Delphic Oracle phenomenon from the generally accepted point of view (CHP). Researchers believe that our planet is surrounded by an energy information field, which contains everything that was and everything that will be. Modern philosophers explain this in a simple passage. Information is located in an environment where there is no concept of time. Information simply exists, and it does not require time to exist. Information about the future is stored next to the past and present. It's all about how to connect to this wealth.

Now we know contemporaries who have received the gift of clairvoyance from nature. They talked about current events, the past and predicted the future. This is Wolf Messing, Vanga, Dzhuna Davitashvili. Yes, you yourself can name many similar names. No mysticism or fantasy. Of course, among psychics there are also falsifiers, it’s too rich a place. But there are also those who are not exposed, but on the contrary are asked to help, even state security forces, for example, during counter-terrorism operations.

The information shell of the Earth is huge. By connecting to such a field, an unprepared person will be in mortal danger. And indeed the Pythia did not have a long life, apparently not only because of the inhalation of narcotic gases. But scientists are convinced that with proper preparation, anyone could “connect” to this information field without drugs and without risking their lives, as, for example, the Slavic priests did. We should not forget that history knows examples when ancient technologies were used in the 20th century after their secondary discovery.

Pythagoras: name and studies.

Here is another fulfilled prophecy of the Oracle at Delphi.

There is a well-known poetic Slavic legend about how the Slavic Pythia of the Temple of Apollo, breaking a celibacy dinner, gave birth to a boy who later took the name Pythagoras.

The birth of Pythagoras was predicted by the Delphic oracle. In the prophecy Pythagoras is called " great son of the sun god Apollo" A very piquant prophecy confirming the Slavic legend.

There is a legend according to which Pythagoras himself took a name for himself, showing who he considered to be his parents. Pythia and the Egyptian sun god Horus. What does this have to do with the Egyptian god? Well, firstly, Horus is the same god of the Sun and in him Pythagoras saw his god of the Sun - Apollo. And, secondly, Pythagoras studied in Egypt, where, apparently, he made a name for himself. Pythagoras studied for more than 40 years in different countries of Asia and Africa.

What knowledge Greece gained in the person of Pythagoras beyond its borders cannot be counted, among them the Vedas and clairvoyance, the cultures of the Chaldeans and Persian magicians, the highest Brahmic and yogic initiation in India.

Returning home, Pythagoras founded his own theological school. A whole movement of his followers in Greek culture is known - the Pythagoreans.

The first census of the Slavs.

Let us return to the gifts brought to Greece by the Hyperborean maidens. I wonder where those gifts came from and in what ways.

An amazing northern civilization has been at the bottom of the ocean for many millennia, and supposedly its people walk around Europe with gifts. Who are these people who have preserved information about the ancient and mighty; surviving descendants or their students? Among the known religions, only one Vedas calls an entire people relatives of the gods - these are the Slavs. They are the grandchildren of DazhdBog.

The Slavs appear in the arena of history “unexpectedly” for historians, at the same time on a vast territory, having one language and one religious culture. That culture that contains echoes of the ancient knowledge of the Hyperboreans. Linguists, and now geneticists, also see the settlement of the Proto-Slavs in the vastness of Eurasia.

History does not know any mass migrations of people from south to north at the beginning of the second millennium AD, not a single chronicle about that. Only from the middle of the 12th century did roads begin to be created between Kiev and Suzdal. And before that? Only Apollo flew on his arrow along the route Delphi - North Pole - Delphi.

Or maybe his route was different? In fact, it was not from the Arctic Ocean that the Hyperboreans Abaris and Aristaeus came to Greece, and it was not among the ice hummocks that future gifts for the Greeks matured.

Here is another conclusion.

Since the ancient peoples, including the Greeks, saw Hyperborea, and in the vastness of the Arctic there has been nothing but ice for tens of thousands of years, it means that we were not looking for a fertile country there.

Key to Hyperborea.

According to historian V. Rybnikov, the ancient Greeks, speaking about Hyperborea, looked at the eastern coast of the Black Sea. The Argonauts sailed there, enduring many hardships. Apparently it was worth it.

Rybnikov’s Black Sea version features what is missing in the Arctic. What are we talking about? About the name of the country itself Hyperborea.

In mythological dictionaries Boreas - god of the north wind, the Greeks placed his home in Thrace in the coastal area of ​​Salmidess. Today this is the Black Sea coast of the states of Bulgaria and Ukraine, which arose on ancient Slavic lands. This is where and who brought gifts to the Greeks for Apollo. But here it is - the hyper-power of familiar cliches. The Russian Arctic has nothing to do with it. If there was something once in the vastness of the North, it was certainly not Hyperborea.

But here he is the key to the gates of a mysterious country. Word Boreas, which in the northern version is found only among the Greeks, but unexpectedly resonates on the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus. Residents of the Krasnodar Territory call the strong northwest wind boron.

While sailing to the east of the Black Sea, Hellas sailors also encountered storms with strong winds. Strong Boreas is in Greek and will be Hyperborea. Reaching the coast of the Caucasus, they entered the country behind this wind. So we sailed to the shores of the fertile country of Hyperborea.

Based on these coordinates, Rybnikov found both the place and the rock to which Prometheus was chained for disobeying Zeus. This rock was very accurately described by Aeschylus in his poem “Prometheus Chained”. The rock stands in the vicinity of Gelendzhik near the village of Praskoveevka. Locals call this rock Parus. Truly a legendary place. Nearby is the sunken (sunk again) ancient city of Dioscuria.

The first teacher of the Aryans is Prometheus.

And here’s one from the myths: Someone named Deucalion was saved from the global flood. The father of this Deucalion was none other than Prometheus himself! The Caucasus was known to the Greeks very well. Ancient writers left many stories about the Caucasus.

In the famous Journey of the Argonauts, certain “Apian Arcadians” are mentioned. Api is the name of the earth goddess among the Scythians who lived in the Black Sea and North Caucasus steppes.

Geology says that at the end of the 4th millennium BC. As a result of a huge catastrophe, the land sank in the area of ​​the Sea of ​​Marmara and the Bosporus and Dardanelles straits. Streams poured into the Black Sea, raising the sea level by 50 meters. Crimea as a peninsula, and in addition the Sea of ​​Azov, was formed precisely when the world ocean broke through into the Black Sea through the Dardanelles. Only those who found themselves near the Caucasus Mountains could be saved. For the sufferers, this was truly a fertile land.

Geology gives us a time marker for the origin of the myths about Prometheus, and at the same time the myth about the Sumerian Gilgamesh and his Great Flood, which turns out to be older than the biblical one by as much as 700 years.

This Dardanelles flood suggests looking for the site of the death of Atlantis in the Black Sea. In addition, the historical Ants and mythical Atlanteans lived in these places. But the inhabitants of the Canary Islands and other places do not remember the Atlanteans. By the way, even in times close to us, the tallest knights of Western Europe barely grew to 165 cm. Against this background, the tall Slavs look like Atlanteans. No wonder the monk Sergius of Radonezh, a former warrior, bore the worldly nickname Oslyabya (Pole).

Ancient university.

The Scythian farmers mentioned earlier, that is, the Slavs, lived at one time in the North Caucasian steppes. Here their priests could learn from Prometheus or his students. What would prevent this? And when the Greeks became aware of that formation, they set off here to the Fertile Land: Apollo on an arrow and the Argonauts on a ship. There were more and more people willing to study, so Prometheus sent his best students from among the Hyperboreans, i.e. Slavs, teach the Greeks.

As Aeschylus writes: “Prometheus, contrary to the prohibition of the Gods, gave people fire, discovered the secret of the movement of the stars, taught the art of adding letters, agriculture and sailing.”

In the Caucasus, the Greeks founded their colonies, and the Scythian farmers brought gifts, or rather traded with the Greek colony in Dioscuria and Torik - modern Gelendzhik. And there is nothing surprising or mythical about this. The Slavs traded with Greece in reality, but what did they trade? Bread since time immemorial. Herodotus also wrote in his “History”: “ Hyperboreans are dedicated farmers who sow grain not for their own food, but for sale" According to Herodotus, this happened 3 thousand years ago. In those days, neither the Scythians nor the Finno-Ugric were engaged in agriculture, especially for export. It was our Slavic ancestors who were noted in history, this time by the Greeks.

Myths are myths, but somehow everything begins to look simpler if Hyperborea is placed on the shores of the Black Sea and the northern Caucasus, on the lands where the Slavs lived.

Writing of Prometheus' disciples.

This is an epitaph on the ancient mausoleum near Fort Shevchenko on the Mangyshlak Peninsula. Next, I will simply quote the words of researcher V. Rybnikov:

“The inscription has 16 letters. 10 of them are prototypes of letters of the Brahmi alphabet, 4 letters are Proto-Slavic and 2 are prototypes of Phoenician letters corresponding to modern Russian T and K. The entire inscription dates back over 3000 years.

Translation: Rise up, mother, come to embrace you, dear soul.

The inscription is Indo-European, Aryan, from the time of the birth of the Proto-Slavic language; Slavs are direct descendants of the Aryans; The arias in those days already had their own alphabet, which should be called Eurasian. From the Eurasian alphabet as a basis came the Brahmi, Phoenician, eastern variety of ancient Greek, Pelasgian runic, ancient Greek and Latin alphabets.”

As you can see, many students came to Prometheus University. And what? The descendants of the Aryans, the Slavs, could not inherit the alphabet of their ancestors, but the entire enlightened world could? Again we see in our historiography an all-powerful hyper-cliché.

Another conclusion.

All Greek myths about Hyperborea speak of a blessed land of happy and wise people. The epics of India, Persia and the northern peoples of Russia tell about serious military actions that led to climatic and geological disasters. It seems that the wise and happy should not fight. Especially with such consequences. There is reason to assume that we are dealing with two groups of myths telling about different civilizations.

Probably, in more ancient times, there was another Blessed Country of the Gods with a name other than Hyperborea, and possibly in the warm Arctic with low sea levels. And what happened then and then?

Let's imagine a little.

Prometheus is not a Hyperborean, but rather an Atlantean or even a descendant of the Titans.

On the Danube, in the steppes of Crimea and the foothills of the Caucasus, beyond the habitats of the Boreas wind, live the Slavs, called by the Greeks - Hyperboreans. In the biography of the god Apollo, we see the father Zeus and his mother the Titanide Leto. The role of midwives at the birth of Apollo was performed by Hyperborean women.

Zeus, while performing global work, did not stoop to the process of giving birth to his son, however, Zeus did not shy away from either the Titans or the descendants of the Titans. One way or another, they all found their place on Olympus. But the relationship with the willful Prometheus did not work out. For the sake of personal power over people, he did not keep the great knowledge of his civilization secret. Maybe Mercator’s map is right, and the gods really lived in the north. And well-known northern myths reflect the actual struggle of the titans Chronos with the ambitions of Zeus for power on Earth. Ancient civilizations crossed their terrible weapons, which led to glaciation and subsequent floods. Such a jackpot left no room for concern for the fate of people and the planet.

Seek the truth.

"Enlightenment drives out prejudice." American Henry Ford gave this advice to everyone who wants to know the world. We are surrounded by a sea of ​​information, and for this purpose God gave people reason to distinguish between misconceptions and outright lies from grains of truth.

Our problem is that we read little literature. Some have never even heard of the teachers Abaris and Aristaeus from Hyperborea, the teachers who taught the ancient Greeks “themselves.”

The Aryans, including the Slavs, Greeks, and the Greek god Apollo, studied together with the titan of thought, Prometheus. Then why should we believe that Cyril and Methodius are the first teachers of the descendants of the Aryans?

I personally am offended by such a historical twist, what about you?

Part II. The last sail of Hyperborea

Rock "Sail"

The "Sail" rock in the vicinity of Gelendzhik (Praskoveevka village) looks like a petrified yacht with a raised sail. There is a hole at the bottom of the rock. Local ethnographers say that the hole was made by a mountain artillery shell during the Caucasian War.

According to ancient myths, Prometheus was crucified on this rock, and continuing to persist in his love for people, he was cast down by the lightning of Zeus into the bowels of Tartarus. You cannot find another rock like this in the whole world.

The last sail of Hyperborea stands at the shore, and there is no longer a captain or crew, and there is no one to give the order: “Stay in place, weigh anchor.”

Having fulfilled the mission of the gods,
The entire fleet of Hyperborea has left,
Filling the power of the sails
Breath of Boreas.

Only one yacht at the pier
I fell asleep in an eternal sleep,
The captain is not with her
He was moved to Nav.

But the grandchildren kept it
gifts from the gods:
Fire - great knowledge,
and written syllables.
farming culture,
and the strength of the sails,
Great Slavism
for future centuries!

Be careful, dolmens!

Today, Caucasian dolmens are called places of cult burials, but they came to bury here much later than the creation of the structures themselves. The objects are made of flint sandstone. Their age is determined to be about 5 thousand years. If it is true that time is afraid of pyramids, then it avoids dolmens even more so. After all, information lives outside of time.

A radio broadcast engineer associates ancient buildings with the antenna of a radio transmitter and receiver. Compare the images of a dolmen and a modern antenna.

Silicon dolmen structures are replicated in modern computers. Before us is no more, no less than a communication center with... itself, i.e. with the World Database.

It is very interesting that half of the known dolmens in the western Caucasus are oriented to the south. And this is exactly how the instructions suggest to orient a modern NTV+ antenna.

There is a well-known legend that the Omphalus of the temple at Delphi was the tomb of the sacred Delphic Serpent Python. Originally it was a tombstone and a point of contact between the two worlds of the living and the dead. The Greeks considered Omphale the center of the universe.

Or take a look at the antennas of the motor ship "Cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov" - one of the USSR science ships. The ship was designed to study the upper layers of the atmosphere and outer space.

The openings of some dolmens are oriented towards the mountain slopes. This situation baffles historians, but not broadcast engineers. In communications technology, the concept of “passive repeater” is known. And these dolmens are a dime a dozen in the area. Here are radio relay lines built thousands of years ago.

No serious comprehensive studies have been carried out here, but it seems that a version with communication devices is really beginning to emerge.

However, in recent years a serious problem has arisen. This is an invasion of tourists climbing dolmens and leaving mountains of garbage. This is a real disaster. Soon there will be nothing left to explore at all. For example, dolmens previously discovered in Crimea were simply destroyed.

Dolmens are found all over the world and always in coastal countries. Sea space is an ideal condition for the propagation of electromagnetic waves. It’s just not yet clear what waves the dolmens propagate; it seems that these waves are not entirely from the radio range.

It is no coincidence that the Caucasus is associated with the name of Prometheus. Dolmens are amazing. Here, in ancient times, someone communicated with someone. Later, it was here that Prometheus communicated with his own kind, and here he taught those who wanted to touch world knowledge. The Slavic Magi apparently succeeded, since they mastered the gift of divination. It is possible that from here they contacted the Druids, and Shambhala, and... of course, with the world database.

What hidden information. And we are told that those people did not have an alphabet. Stand in front of the dolmen and try This repeat it out loud, and I won’t envy you.

Are dolmens silent?

And here is another antenna. Photo of Omphales in the Delphic Archaeological Museum.

Or on the antennas of the motor ship "Cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov" - one of the USSR science ships, which was intended to study the upper layers of the atmosphere and outer space

Staying in front of the dolmen hole for a long time can cause great harm to an uninitiated person. Attention! The danger is real! Who knows whether the last user managed to turn off this device or not. Or maybe the device is still working. Today no one will talk about it.

And this option is also possible. Ancient builders repeated in their buildings the external forms of certain devices, the work of which they had seen with their own eyes. Devices that collect information like nectar in hives and provide honey with answers to asked questions.

Psychics note the increased energy of these places. It seems that the dolmens are still working.

The last conclusion.

Here it is. Myths are myths, but we were able to consider a very specific story.

The ancient Greeks were surrounded by many contemporary peoples. Everyone wrote down their stories, some on stone, some on clay tablets, and some, like the Slavs, on wooden tablets. Time passed, and we were left with many records, but not Slavic ones. Their book tablets disappear into the darkness of centuries along with the Magi, and with them Slavic history disappears. All that remains is the epic memory of the people, based on real events.

The history of Caucasian Hyperborea also disappeared. Only myths have survived. The gods did not write chronicles. Their history is recorded in a global database. Maybe someone will be lucky enough to look there.

Of course, all these thoughts are just a hypothesis, and the search for Hyperborea is not completed.

In any case, we should not forget the Chinese wisdom: “He who listens to one bell hears one sound.”

P.S. About the writing of the Slavs.

As for Slavic writing, I simply suggest that you unbiasedly familiarize yourself with the work of V. Chudinov, Decoding the Slavic syllabic and alphabetic writing. This work examines the origins of the claim about the absence of pre-Cyrillic Slavic writing. Chudinov also names the author of the hyperstamp, who bewitched the entire historical and near-historical community. http://chudinov.ru/parallelnyiy-mir...govogo-pisma/6/

Here is just a small excerpt from Chudinov’s work.

“The authoritative, but fundamentally incorrect view of Vatroslav Yagich* became the starting point for further study of Slavic writing. We still live with him now. Already in the 20th century, the famous Slavist Lubomir Niederle wrote: “it is generally implausible that the Slavic people knew the original written language and used it before the adoption of Christianity.” The fear of fakes and exposure to actual fakes deprived the Slavs of their true cultural history. No more and no less!

All repeats. Including love for authoritative hyperstamps. Suffice it to recall the pearls of the French Academy of Sciences, which did not recognize the fall of meteorites and the existence of Siberian permafrost. The Catholic Church opposed the daily rotation of the Earth no less authoritatively. “But still she spins.” Just as pre-Christian Aryan Slavic writing existed among the descendants of Hyperborea.

Alexander Shikalenkov

The continent of Hyperborea is not a myth, but a huge land mass that actually existed in the distant past, and as a result of some cataclysm, it sank in the waters of the Arctic Ocean. More and more researchers are coming to this conclusion, believing that a highly developed civilization managed to emerge on this continent, the people from which became our distant ancestors.

Once upon a time it was warm in the North

When you begin to say that in the distant past there was a continent in the Arctic Ocean, where people lived, numerous animals lived and fruit trees bloomed, most listeners immediately have a completely logical question: “How could this be if there is only ice and terrible cold?” ? This question is not surprising, because not everyone knows that in the past the climate in many areas of the planet was completely different: for example, in the Sahara, rivers once flowed and lakes turned blue, vegetation turned green, and numerous animals and birds lived. Likewise, “eternal” ice and cold did not always reign in the Arctic.

Comprehensive studies carried out several years ago in the north of Scotland showed that 4,000 years ago the climate at this latitude was not much different from the Mediterranean. This was confirmed by the discovered remains of heat-loving animals, pollen of plants and trees that cannot tolerate cold. But a group of scientists led by Catherine Moran from the University of Rhode Island and Jan Backman from Stockholm University recently found that approximately 55 million years ago, ocean temperatures in the Arctic reached 23 degrees Celsius! It’s hard to believe, because this water temperature is observed off the coast of Crimea at the height of the holiday season!

Of course, it is difficult to imagine that 55 million years ago there was a developed civilization in the area of ​​the pole; According to all available data, the Hyperborean civilization in the Arctic, which will be discussed, existed back in the days of Ancient Greece. It was about its representatives that Diodorus Siculus wrote: “The Pterboreans have their own language, but they are very close to the Hellenes, and especially to the Athenians and Delians, maintaining this relationship from ancient times.” It is unlikely that the ancient Greek historian could write this about a mythical people; everything suggests that the Hyperboreans, like their civilization, really existed. By the way, mentions of Hyperborea and its powerful people are found in ancient sources of India, Persia and other countries.

I will not go into details of the discussion about the location of Hyperborea; many researchers believe that the main part of this continent disappeared under the waters of the Arctic Ocean, but they believe that traces of the Hyperborean civilization can be found on the Kola Peninsula, Karelia, the Polar Urals, Novaya Zemlya, Spitsbergen , Taimyr Peninsula. There is an assumption that Greenland could be part of Hyperborea.

Skeptics point out that all reports about Hyperborea and its civilization relate either to myths or to esoteric literature. They also do not take seriously the map of Gerardus Mercator, published in 1595, on which Hyperborea was mapped from some ancient sources in the northern polar region. According to skeptics, what is needed is not unfounded, but material evidence of the existence of the Arctic continent and its developed civilization in the past. Do supporters of Hyperborea have such evidence?

What did Barchenko's expedition find?

Supporters of the existence of Hyperborea and its civilization believe that the first material evidence confirming their views was discovered in the 20s of the 20th century by the expedition of Alexander Vasilyevich Barchenko. On February 19, 1923, Krasnaya Gazeta published a sensational message: “Prof. Barchenko discovered the remains of ancient cultures dating back to a period older than the era of the birth of Egyptian civilization.” Did this message correspond to reality and what did the expedition of A. V. Barchenko really find?

In 1922, the expedition went to the Kola Peninsula to the area adjacent to the Lovozero churchyard and at that time practically unexplored by scientists. Barchenko and his companions went to the very center of Russian Lapland, their tasks included ethnographic, psychophysical and geographical research. One of the important goals of the expedition was to study a mysterious disease - “meryachenia”. Alexander Barchenko actively collaborated with Academician Bekhterev and took part in the work of the Brain Institute, which is why he was assigned to study this mysterious mental illness. People affected by it repeated each other’s movements, as if automata were following any commands, behaving like zombies. Barchenko himself set himself another task - to find traces of the legendary Hyperborean civilization, information about which he gleaned from studying archival materials.

Already in the first days of the expedition, approaching Seydozero, the researchers discovered a massive rectangular granite stone. It was clearly artificially processed, and oriented according to the cardinal points. By all indications, its processing was carried out in very ancient times. A little later, the expedition members found another rectangular ancient stone. And at Seydozero the Lapps showed them an ancient hole; unfortunately, it was blocked by collapsed rock. They tried to penetrate into another discovered hole, but due to the chilling feeling of horror that arose when descending into it, all their attempts were unsuccessful. We were content to have the whole group take a photo next to him.

On Seydozero, the researchers were very interested in the dark figure of the “Old Man” or Kuyva, visible on the steep rocky shore, as the locals called this mysterious “drawing”. There were other mysterious formations in the vicinity of Seydozero. Expedition member Alexander Kondiain wrote in his “Astronomical Diary”: “In one of the gorges we saw a mysterious thing - next to the hermitages, lying here and there in spots on the slopes of the gorge, a yellowish-white column like a giant candle was visible, and next to it a cubic stone . On the other side of Mount N you can see a gigantic cave, 200 fathoms, and nearby there is something like a walled up crypt.” The expedition also discovered something resembling a small pyramid made of stones.

The man who returned Hyperborea to us

Even then, the finds of Barchenko’s expedition were received ambiguously. There was a skeptic who even equipped his expedition, followed in Barchenko’s footsteps and declared that he had not found any signs of ancient structures. One of the Petrograd newspapers wrote that the expedition of A.E. Fersman, which visited the same places in the same year, also “did not find anything archaeological in them.” On April 25, 1938, Alexander Barchenko was shot; the findings of his expedition and the supposed traces of Hyperborea in the Russian North were forgotten for a long time.

Perhaps, over the next decades, someone remembered Hyperborea and the findings of Barchenko’s expedition, but no one dared to try to secure the allocation of funds to search for traces of the “mythical” civilization. Most likely, such an attempt would end in failure, but the one who raised such a question would face not only the ridicule of colleagues, but also the loss of scientific reputation. Everything got off the ground thanks to Doctor of Philosophy Valery Nikitich Demin. In the 90s, he drew attention to the similarity of local legends of the Kola Peninsula with Greek ones, and remembered the finds of Alexander Barchenko.

“The very name Hyperborea came to us precisely in ancient Greek transcription,” wrote Demin. - Hyper in translation means “beyond” or “above something.” "Borey" - north wind. Hyperborea is “the land beyond the Rhipaean mountains, beyond the evil north wind Boreas,” as the ancient Roman historian Pliny the Elder describes it.” The scientist decided that traces of Hyperborea should be looked for on the Kola Peninsula.

It is worth noting that, unlike many skeptical scientists, V.N. Demin realized the importance of Hyperborea for world history and the study of the roots of human civilization. He wrote: “The ancient northern country, where all the Indo-European peoples (and not only them) came from, called Hyperborea by ancient authors, is no less famous than Atlantis. The mysterious country beyond the Arctic Circle was connected with hundreds of cultural and historical threads with ancient civilizations. There is more than enough written evidence from the most authoritative scientists and writers on this subject.”

The Northern Pyramids are the oldest in the world

Thanks to the enthusiasm of the researcher and his supporters, the expeditions “Hyperborea-97” and “Hyperborea-98” were organized and carried out, which made it possible to find material evidence of the existence of an ancient civilization. Huge hewn slabs of regular geometric shape, traces of man-made cuts in the stones, the remains of an ancient observatory with a 15-meter trench directed towards the sky, fragments of steps, a paved road two kilometers long - all this clearly indicated the presence of a developed civilization in our North in the distant past.

Unfortunately, on November 26, 2006, V.N. Demin passed away, but the research he began was continued by other enthusiasts. A lot is now written about Hyperborea, and popular science films are made about its search. Since 2000, the Northern Search Expedition of the Commission for Scientific Tourism of the Russian Geographical Society began searching for traces of Hyperborea in the Russian North, and since 2005, a specialized scientific expedition of the International Club of Scientists. Of course, in recent years the number of finds related to the Hyperborean civilization has increased significantly.

For example, in 2007, researchers, following in the footsteps of Demin’s expeditions, found two pyramids on the Kola Peninsula and examined them. An unambiguous conclusion was made about their man-made origin. One of the participants who studied these structures said the following: “Analysis showed that the pyramids are at least 9,000 years old, which means that the pyramid culture came from the North. So behind our country there is a history that goes back to the ancient times of a great power.”

The Kola pyramids, of course, are difficult to compare with the Egyptian ones; they are only about 50 meters high, connected by a lintel and oriented to the cardinal points. It is believed that they could have been used as an observatory for observing the starry sky. Using ground penetrating radar, voids or chambers were discovered inside the pyramids; It is not yet clear what they were intended for.

With the help of geophysicists, an expedition in 2001 in the Seydozero area at a depth of 4 meters discovered underground cavities with arches up to 30 meters high, as well as a filled-in tunnel leading to Mount Ninchurt. In subsequent years, in the Russian North, researchers found more than ten stone labyrinths, a majestic stone throne, ruins of megalithic complexes, pyramids and even a statue of the Sphinx.

The reports of discoveries of ancient inscriptions carved on stones in ancient Greek, and especially inscriptions made in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, are amazing! Everything suggests that the Russian North could have been the cradle of a number of ancient civilizations. After a cataclysm caused by some reason unknown to us, the main part of Hyperborea disappeared under water, and the Hyperboreans, driven by the cold, headed south. Their traces can be traced in India and a number of other countries.

Most likely, the blood of the Hyperboreans flows in us too. Valery Nikitich Demin wrote: “There is no doubt that ancient Hyperborea is directly related to the ancient history of Russia, and the Russian people and their language are directly related to the legendary country of the Hyperboreans that disappeared or dissolved in the depths of the ocean and land. It is not without reason that Nostradamus in his Centuries called the Russians nothing less than the Hyperborean people.
