Niven’s Tablet Discoveries – An Update

Posted on December 2, 2015 | Comments Off

Tablets_fake
My research has always been about uncovering the truth.
Earlier this week I read that an archaeologist had come across four of Niven’s tablets from the Valley of Mexico and was interviewed in a podcast.
The name of the podcast is ArchyFantasies and the particular show is titled, “Jeb Card and the Mu Stones Pt 1 Episode 24.”

One of the questions that always arises in interviews where I discuss my latest book, The Stone Tablets of Mu, is ‘where are the tablets now?’ The implication that some of the tablets had been found and would undergo rigorous scientific testing, as well as an evaluation of the meaning of the symbols, was one of the reasons that I wrote the book and continued to update the “William Niven’s Tablet Discoveries in the Valley of Mexico” website. I make the point in my book that it is quite possible that the tablets were never taken seriously due to the association with my great-grandfather, James Churchward. I had hoped that eventually we could learn their real meaning and decipher more of our ancient past.

Allow me to reiterate, from the information I have read, I do not believe that William Niven was a charlatan or was engaged in any hoax with James Churchward. From William Niven’s biography, “Buried Cities and Forgotten Gods,” the tablets were discovered prior to the publication of James’ first book or when they first started their correspondence.
As to the veracity of the finds, to quote ‘Buried Cities, Forgotten Gods [page 218],’ “(archaeologist Sylvanus) Morley was convinced it would have been impossible to “hoax” the Old Man.”

Dr. Card, in studying the four tablets in his care, described them as being made of pumice, a very low density, soft volcanic rock. He is analyzing them, but sets forth the assertion that he believes that they were/are a hoax.

As further information is made available, I will provide updates and even hope to interview Dr. Card to describe what he has found from his investigations to get to the truth of the matter.

Looking for the Great Uighur Empire Capital Part 1

Posted on November 28, 2015 | 1 comment

In James Churchward’s writings about the Great Uighur Empire, he describes that it was the principal colonial empire belonging to Mu at the time of the Great Flood when the eastern half of their empire was destroyed. Also, James wrote that Chinese legends told that the Uighurs had reached the height of their civilization 17,000 years ago. One of his maps is shown below.

He describes that capital as being in the Gobi Desert ‘almost due south of Lake Baikal’ and that the capital lie underneath the ruins of Khara Khoto.

Khara Khoto is shown in the Google Earth map below as the southern-most marker. Due to the map’s scale, it may not be visible unless the link is followed.

Pyotr Kuzmich Kozlov
(1863-1935)

James wrote:

Professor Kozloff unearthed a tomb 50 feet below the surface at Khara Khoto and in it found wonderful treasures, which he photographed, not being allowed to disturb or take anything away.

It is well-documented that PK Kozloff (Koslov,) the Russian explorer, first visited the area in April 1908 as part of a six-man expedition. As shown on the St. Petersburg, Russia Hermitage Museum webpages, that Koslov did actually obtain artifacts from the site. One example is presented below:

Pure Land of Amitabha
from Tangut State of Xi -Xia, Khara-Khoto. 13th – 14th century

Here are some views of Khara Khoto when Kozlov visited:

Dedication of “The Children of Mu” Part 4

Posted on November 21, 2015 | Comments Off

Part 1 with the complete dedication is here.

William Niven (1850-1937)

Was a Scottish born archaeologist and mineralogist that explored the American Southwest and Mexico.

As noted in Lifting the Veil on the Lost Continent of Mu Motherland of Men, Chapter 11 (“NIVEN’S MEXICAN BURIED CITIES”) is taken from an article contained in one of James’ scrapbooks. The entire article has been transcribed and is contained therein.

James did not quote as much from Niven in the Children of Mu.

As documented in his biography, Buried Cities Forgotten Gods: William Niven’s Life of Discovery and Revolution in Mexico and the American Southwest,” the first correspondence between William Niven and James Churchward was after the publication in 1926 of The Lost Continent of Mu Motherland of Man. [September 1927] The same source indicates that William and James continued their correspondence for a number of years, although probably not as cordial in 1932 after the incident with the altar when it abruptly ended.

There is what appears to be a letter from William Niven to James Churchward in one of James’ scrapbooks, however, there are difficulties. The first being that the letter is sliced through and it is evident that what was on back is now on the front. I contacted William Niven’s grandson (Roland Harrison) after the publication of the Niven’s biography to ask him about it and he wrote back:

WN frequently included copies of letters from others to him when he was writing to someone else.

I sent him a scanned copy and his reply was:

The letter that you sent me was indeed written by WN but it was mainly a mixed up copy of a letter from George Fox to WN. Your copy seems to be missing a portion between “My dear friend” and “them – who replied” Very few of the words were those of WN. WN apparently skipped around when copying from the 4 page letter.

Two articles appear in James’ scrapbook, Niven’s Buried Cities appears in Lifting the Veil on the Lost Continent of Mu Motherland of Men and The Stone Tablets of Mu. An edited version is contained in Chapter 11 of both the Lost Continent of Mu Motherland of Men (1931) and Lost Continent of Mu (1931).

Another article from the scrapbook, Tracing the First Love Story Back to Ancient Mexico, an article from the Newspaper Feature Service (1931) is contained The Stone Tablets of Mu.
