An amazing collection! My additional info is I think it was the Moors who were the Masons doing the building. See http://moorsandmasonry.org/ for an overview, I have some of these books. I mostly focus on India's history, as much of the architecture is still there in Calcutta. There were craftsman, the Moors, who were employed by many different cultures around the world, and they had airships. The buildings they built, like the capital domes, all had Moorings on them for docking, charging, and loading passengers. They were also, before, ship builders and ruled the seas, and the term Moorings was first used for boat dockings before the airships.

Further, it seems to me that the Zephyr and its 1937 crash was a replica of the Old World tech and therefore a psyop from the get go, with the Empire St Building mooring station (only used once) being the main story of the new narrative. They used dangerous gases, as they didn't have the old aether technology. But this way one explodes and it replaces the entire storyline of them being all around the world previously in the 19th century and earlier. Also, on the term Zephyr. The Old World Moors had a Zephyr or zephyr cloth -- it is a sheer, lightweight cotton fabric, usually plain woven.

This isn't to deny the Tartars. I believe the old world was much more pluralistic, and not an empire. Armenians (Christian) were also prominent worldwide. I am going to series of posts that explore the erased Moorish narrative, starting with how it was a conflated term by the Portuguese, and even before, for anyone that was an enemy. They collapsed cultures like the Berbers and other Arab or Africans into being Moor, and then erased them after defeat. Rumes was another one-- During the 16th century, the Portuguese used rume and rumes (plural) as a generic term to refer to the Mamluk-Ottoman forces that they faced in the Indian Ocean.

I absolutely love old black and white pictures and old newspaper articles. They offer a window into another time. People back then were not much different from us today. They had the same basic concerns.

Thank you for another great post!!

Knowledge comes from books. Wisdom comes from contemplation of experience as we go.

One of my favorite things to do is stare at all the old buildings, streets, and just take it in. Breathe in the strength and courage of people, adventurers, dreamers, lovers of God, that put their sweat, blood, often their lives, into places that give us our lives. I feel stabs of pain when I see what the young do to them so casually and selfishly. These are gifts to humanity on many, many levels. Thank you Demi. oxoxox

I believe we are cyclically devolving as a society and that it is not a natural process. It is being controlled.
