Alright, I have always had a hunch that pyramids are everywhere, scattered all over the world. When scientists discovered the bosnian pyramids just recently, it had fueled my thoughts even furthur.
Now, the mystery of Oak Island is showing more and more clues to a Mayan connection and possibly Egyptian connection. What if this were true?
I ask some of you if you will, to look around Nova Scotia on google earth and see if you can find anything interesting.
Post if u do.

What, exactly, are these clues that supposedly connect Oak Island and the Egyptians and Mayans?

frankly, E-I, i dont see any thing resembling a pyramid there...leve a pyramid, i dont see anything resembling geometrical shapes. You/Someone have drawn your/their own line pyramids to indicate a structure. i checked the cooridnates given and found nothing. does it have a 3d view.
Lets the do the same with google mars, take your pic of the planet draw a dark lines and claim pyramids in there and clain an egyptian connection to mars too...many are doing so, why dont you also join the wagon?

Look at the second photo - in your upper right hand side, can u see a resemblance whatsoever????
And that triangle is definately something lol
And i really dont like superconductive skeptics who just think the world is a joke - take a thought or two man!
There are many many connections between mars and egypt, and soil which does not occur on earth that often is found in the pyramids but occurs everywhere on mars. Plaides constellation and Orions belt are what these structures were built to represent.

There are no links whatsoever to any Algonquian language with any Semitic or African language. I speak Northern Unami (Delaware) and Anishanabii (Ojibway). I assisted in breaking down the Coastal Algonquian and Canadian Algonquian to it's prototype form then worked with Alibamu-Kosati (Creek) linguists to break both languages down to the Macro-Algonquian prototype.

At the extent of boring other people, that was exactly what I was looking into -- the theories about them being actually related versus them merely being in a Sprachbund.
Incidentally, isn't a lot of research into Paleo-Indian languages based on (and also controversial) because they depend on mass comparison rather than charting individual changes? I mean, I know nothing -- nothing -- about Native American languages, so I don't even know if mass comparison is a good way to examine them...
--Jaylemurph
Did anyone ever find that Sphinx MAD was going on about?
As to Egyptians in Canada, Maybe it is the other way round and the Native North Americans went to Egypt and taught them how to build. The theory is just as valid as Egyptians coming to Nova Scotia.
It is more likely that Mayan influences could have gotten to Nova Scotia then the Egyptians. North America had a good trade network going before the arrival of Europeans and unfamiliar disease. Pacific shells have turned up with Eastern American Indian digs and Atlantic shells with Western American Indian digs. So it is not impossible to think that ideas could have been exchanged across the continent too.
Isn't there supposedly pyramidal stacked rock structures in a lake in Wisconsin?
Here it is...

Mass comparison, archeological evidence (Pottery styles and projectile point styles and where they traveled), Migration patterns ( borrowed words and art styles from neighboring tribes), Tribal folklore. Charting individual changes is a nightmare due to massive amounts of linguistic drift even among neighboring phaltries (subtribes)
It is now theorized that the Hopewell separation from the Adena was the Muskogee-Algonquian separation.
I think the Finno-Urgic-Altaic relationship is cross fertilization due to the composite nomadic culture of the Russian Steppe. As was the Plains Culture of North America. In a Sprachbund as you say.

I think it's also interesting (very sad, though) that this sort of interest is arising just as so many languages (Altaic and Native American) are dying... There's a palpable sense in the research both in Russia and the US/Canada that evidence is being destroyed as you read an article. Which is true. Even a generation or two ago, we'd be able to have such a better picture of languages spoken over such a huge hunk of the globe.
So much of what gets talked about at places like UM is gone beyond retrieval, but it's even worse to watch as languages like Kamas or Nganasan disappear in our lifetimes, and no-one even really knows.

Language also ties in with philosophy (thought) and culture. When you lose a language you lose a entire thought process and culture. My tribe's language along with it's culture has been extinct since 1840 and as a ethno-historian for my tribe I am part of our efforts of cultural restoration. The whole point of me being sent to learn Anishinabii and Unami was to reconstruct our language along with the thought processes that were lost and have no concepts in English.
I hate to hear about any race that suffers cultural extinction, Their morals, family (tribal) life and religion dies leaving them in a sorry state. This has happened in North America, Africa and Asia leaving people moral degenerates who live on the welfare of their conquerers.

QUOTE
None of the Cree syllabic glyphs pa ta ca ka ma na sa ya, nor the incidental consonants r l w h, bear any particular resemblance to either Pitman or Taylor shorthand. All of them, however, resemble the combining forms of cursive Devanagari (with the right-side bar removed, as happens in ligatures, and the top bar removed, as often happens in handwriting): Devanagari m = Cree ma, for example. The likeness is stronger if one allows the symbols to rotate to give a similar direction of writing for each vowel; for example, Devanagari n has the orientation of ne rather than of na. Because Cree consonants can be either voiced or voiceless, each corresponds to two Devanagari letters, and Cree ka/ga, for example, resembles Devanagari g rather than k.

Today a renewed hope in a group of gentlemen from Traverse City, Michigan who have been affectionately named “The Michigan Mob aka MI Group” have bought 50% of 78% of Oak Island with a commitment to further the pursuit of the Oak Island NS enigma under the leadership of long time treasure hunter, Dan Blankenship. The current TTL (treasure trove license) expires June 2008 and that is when it is speculated the hunt will resume.

1) What makes you think the Holy Grail even exists? Unlike, oh say, the crown of thorns, the spear of longinus, the true cross, the gifts of the magi, even the foreskin of Jesus, this doesn't even get a mention in the old christian version of Jesus' life.
2) What makes you think the Templars got a hold of it?
3) Why would they never, once mention it to the Pope, even when they were condemned to excommunication?
4) Why would they make it North America?
5) And then never mention it to anyone, ever?
6) Why would they let people forget about this for several hundred years?

What the heck are talking about? The pic of the modern lighthouse or the natural sea caves? The templars never came to america, they were disbanded in the 1300s. They have nothing to do with oak island. And oak island, for that matter, has nothing to do with anything period. There's no evidence anything was ever buried there other than wildly unsubstantiated rumors started by one unverified and sensational account in one newspaper article over 150 years ago.

Cree script was invented by Jesuit Priests to translate the bible. It is a combination of Anishinabe Midi script and various European letters. The relationship is coincidental. I have seen it and was given copies of it but since it is a product of the post-contact period I have no interest in it.

Most skins prefer to be called by their Nation. As in my case "Nanticoke- Lenape" or "6 Nations Delaware". If you don't know their tribe "Indian". They hate "Native American".

Most skins prefer to be called by their Nation. As in my case "Nanticoke- Lenape" or "6 Nations Delaware". If you don't know their tribe "Indian". They hate "Native American".

In Canada, they use the term First Nations. What's you're take on that?
I was really struck the first time I heard it because it seemed to me gave a measure of respect for the societal and political sophistication to pre-European inhabitants that I thought terms like "native" and "indigenous" always seem to connote against, but that could just be my own language luggage. You know, especially in the context of the Atlantean kings MAD asked about.

First Nations is very acceptable. I actually like the term when used in the generic sense. It does remove the stigma of being "backwards" or "primitive". But most tribes in the U.S. prefer their own local terms ( Navaho- "Dine", Objibway,Algonkin- "Anishanabe" or "Nishnab", Iroquois-( 6 Nations) Haudenasee, Sioux-"Lakota","Dakota", Delaware-"Lena'pe", Creek- "Muskovke" or "Kosati" etc.) or their "school book" names such as "Nanticoke", "Osage", "Shinnicock", etc. because their own names are not in common usage or have been forgotten.
We prefer Nanticoke or Lena'pe because if we say "NeXtiigo" or "UneleXtiigo" people are lost because it is not commonly used.
The Coastal Algonquians of Maine, and at one time as a whole, call themselves "Wabanakii" From North Jersey on up to New Brunswick or "Wapanagii" from Central New Jersey down to South Carolina. It means "Dawnland People" and when we gather as a group at powwows we use that term. It is a term of brotherhood and of common origin more than a "national identity".

Just skimming through this and was pretty Interested that Nova Scotia was mentioned, Which is were i'm from. Cape Breton to be exact, the very place NASA is thinking about building a new launch station. Pretty wild because up here we're a laid back people, We still hold history and culture high in our little peice of the world. So having NASA here would be absolutely Huge, almost hard to believe. I don't know much about pyramids but we're certainly surrounded by lots of water and beautiful scenery, and yes we call "Native" people First Nations here. Cape Breton has a large number of mikmaq here. It would be cool if something so fantastic as a pyramid were buried under the water close to my very home in which I live.
