Nomoli Ben Posted August 18, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Who out there knows about the NOMOLI Ancient Alien Stones? For years my family has brought NOMOLI into the US. Our collection has been museum exhibited, now first Internet site up and writing the first ever book of NOMOLI with African art professor. We do have some testimonials to the power in metaphysical, psychic, healing, etc but very interested in yours - AND have uncovered very little about the Ancient Alien connection or use by ancient alien enthusiasts to include. Who can tell me of your experience or knowledge? Excited to hear, Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stereologist Posted August 18, 2017 #5 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Although the ancient origins sites makes a lot of mysterious claims others seem to be much more knowledgeable concerning these nomoli such as this site http://www.authenticafricanbronzesandceramics.com/ They do not seem to be involved with aliens at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomoli Ben Posted August 18, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Thanks had never seen that site They do not discuss the origins or tribal folklore All information in that regard is of beings from the heavens as far as I have found Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stereologist Posted August 19, 2017 #7 Share Posted August 19, 2017 The site does state that they were made to protect the crops. I saw the "protect the crops" mentioned on a few sites. Quote According to local traditions, these figures were meant to be used to protect the crop. It sometimes occurred that a similar figure was damaged as punishment for a poor harvest. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stereologist Posted August 19, 2017 #8 Share Posted August 19, 2017 In the wikipedia we see' that the unknown origin is due possibly to a lost art form after an invasion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_in_Sierra_Leone This has happened in many places. The one that comes to mine are the temples of Teotihuacan that the Aztecs thought were made by giants. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nomoli Ben Posted August 19, 2017 Author #10 Share Posted August 19, 2017 The fact as to that is the stones have been dug up over past 300 years by current tribes mentioned. They repurposed them as you describe But, in fact no one claims that any known human or even unnamed artist from their ancestors "carved" the stones As far as I can find that is, they are attributed to other beings creating them Thanks again for tha input Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seal stones from the site called Troy were found and considered to be of fantastic origin. They were given to women to induce lactation, if I remember. But when excavation and examination was done they were found to be stones used for sealing messages with wax used in the historic city. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomoli Ben Posted August 19, 2017 Author #12 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Some theorize the stones may have been carved many thousands of years ago The sticking point with others is that they believe there was no civilization capable in that area over 1000 years ago I have posted on many relative sites and they are virtually unjknown by those who I would expect to know Very interesting for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stereologist Posted August 19, 2017 #13 Share Posted August 19, 2017 As I had mentioned before the Aztecs ascribed the pyramids of Teotihuacan to giants. The carvings are likely to be from the people that were conquered. To suggest that these are not of human origin is rather odd don't you think. That would like saying no known human made the Banksy art. Old art is sometimes hard to assign to a culture. It is often a matter of finding similar art in another place. There is a style in North America called the Frontier culture. It is found in many areas, but has also been found on dwellings making it possible to connect the art on rock to the people that made the art. Maybe some day the nomoli can be connected to a particular tradition with certainty. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomoli Ben Posted August 19, 2017 Author #14 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Thank you all for your input. I will take away that the concensus on this site is they are carved by a tribe that is unidentified but no great mystery here One person points out that everything has hidden hystory so they would be included And, no one has personal experience or knowledge of these stones here Thanks again and Peace All!

Nomoli Ben Posted August 19, 2017 Author #16 Share Posted August 19, 2017 "Never understood" so you have studied and were aware of NOMOLI before at least - I think you are the only one on this site who said that they had even heard of them And this is a site where people pride themselves on being aware and alert to such things (there are specific reasons they remain unknown at critical mass to date) Yes, I could speculate based upon my experience and knowledge but not in a sentence or two And certainly it is a matter of fertile soil If a person believes there is no "Higher Power"/ many call God (others believe were aliens) and no mysteries above our current level of written academia then they never would But to answer broadly, historically there have been men and women who believe there is more and are open to possibilities And specifically all the oral tradition and spiritual significance which can be traced proves this is what the natives claimed in their earliest accounts So the short answer - because that is the truth according to those who knew best and were there then) And then there are others who have had deeply personal experiences but many will not share so as not to diminish the relevance and allow others opinions to interfere with their personal experience But anyway, I'm gathering input for the book and will let others judge for themselves The point is that in history there is no book of NOMOLI ever written, what little is known is held by the elders only, and it is in danger of being lost to antiquity as the stones are no longer politically correct due to world religions and association with "Primitive arts" In fact they are being purged now, especially by extremist Muslims and Christians also! So we will write the first book and I am researching for those who can contribute - they are out there me thinks And then therer is that "Healing Stone" movement which is growing and alive but unaware (as best I can tell) of these powerful Enigmatic artifacts Perhaps we will see by example the power as they become activated by healers, psychics, etc - I can not say You must admit there is a mystery in that no one really knows do they?

kartikg Posted August 20, 2017 #19 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Why would aliens want to crave rocks ? and the argument that nobody knows makes them of alien origin makes no sense either , art music etc go out of fashion and people stop doing them . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're rock carvings, thousands of years old. Not having a "names artist" doesn't mean that they were created by "other beings". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about this one: Gello Giorgi, I Nomoli di Sierra Leone, Bologna : EMI, 1983. Basically, you know very little, yet you want to write a book... Thats becoming a trend. How about visiting library and reading papers on the subject in archeological and historical journals? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously. There are some archeologists and historians on the Ancient Civ forum, but getting a line to someone working in that specific area is a better idea than posting on a board dedicated to aliens.

Nomoli Ben Posted August 20, 2017 Author #25 Share Posted August 20, 2017 WOWSA, ne reason to get mean spirited my friends Was attending African Art museum event yesterday, excuse the delay in response and again thanks for your input MessageToEagle.com - August 2014 - Among many ancient relics that definitely "threaten" our traditional school of thought are the so-called Nomoli figures found in Sierra Leone, West Africa. The Nomoli are controversial stone figures dated from 2,500 years to approximately 15,000 BC and even 17,000 BC. They seem to prove the existence of an ancient civilization much more advanced than it "should" be. All the indications are that about 17,000 years ago, a highly sophisticated civilization existed in the current West Africa. Legend tells that: "They wandered without let or hindrance to places where no man had ever been before. One could not look them in the face because their eyes were so bright that it hurt one's own eyes to look at them. It was like looking at the sun."Wikipedia.com - The people in the region expressed the belief that they were the work of spiritual beings and that no one in the communities knew how to make such a figure.Unsolved Mysteries - Myth and legend of Western Africa says that in ancient times a people of angels lived in heaven. As a cause of bad behaviour God banned them from the divine empire. To punish the angels he transformed them into men and sends them to Earth. The Nomoli Statues are said to be a reminder of those once divine creatures. The natives often call the figures “men in stone”. But some see them as guardian gods who brings luck. I found a review of that book (thanks for pointing it out) as you can see they state the "But the main question - who made the nomoli, when and how and why - do not recieve satisfactory answershttps://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/africa/article/magubane-bernard-and-nzongolantalaja-eds-proletarianization-and-class-struggle-in-africa-san-francisco-synthesis-publications-1983-182-pp-895/9C49216CFB8FDCF9A9FDFD93CAE7DA15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
