The mysterious Nan Madol

Показать описание
#shorts
Nan Madol, the giant temple on the small island of Temwen, close to Pohnpei in Micronesia.
Was it built by the 2 wizard brothers, Olosohpa and Olosihpa? Interestingly enough. Pohnpei, when translated, means “upon a stone altar” … I don’t think a more magical name is even possible… Oh wait. The island was formerly called ascension.
Can’t make it up.
What a fascinating site. 40% of the stones appear to have been somehow transported to the site from the top of a volcanic mountain on the opposite side of Pohnpei. 60% of them are from unknown locations.
It continues well underwater, and you can clearly see on Satellite images, how the entire coastline was modified, I would have loved to see this place at its prime. It is gigantic and awe-striking now, so one can only imagine what the people in the beautiful canoes that ran between the many artificial islands and canals would have marveled at.
There are so many mysteries in the world, and we need to peel back the layers of the historical onion further and further by widening our perspective on the past.
That’s why I am travelling across my home continent of Europe to discover more about the mysteries laying in front of our nose, by exploring ancient mystical sites. Their knowledge is waiting to be unfolded. Support me on this journey by going to the GoFundMe link in my Bio.
Much Love and all the Best for you.
