Another Expert Agrees With Dark Comet Theory

An Australian archaeologist, Peter ‘Mungo’ Jupp,  is creating a series of films called Ancient Destructions and I cannot wait to watch them. The 26 films will all be about ancient cataclysms, and four titles are mentioned on his site so far:

• The Destruction of Baalbek – City of the Thundergods
• Mega Tsunami Melbourne 1500 A.D.
• Lake Mungo and Lake Victoria the Australian Sodom and Gomorrah
• Antarctica ..once a tropical paradise

The films seem to be far better researched than your typical History Channel fare. Jupp appears to be a cross between a real archaeologist and someone like Graham Hancock. For example, his site mentions how Antarctica once had marsupials, coal and a forest – which means it was obviously once a more temperate and hospitable place. He certainly seems to lean more towards understanding ancient myths to be true accounts, and less towards ascribing “goddess worship” and “ritual sacrifice” to everything discovered.

Of particular interest is something I had not heard of before – a mass collection of human bones at Lake Victoria in Australia. The conventional explanation is that this is the largest non-agricultural (ie hunter-gatherer) burial site in the world, and that the skeletal remains of 10,000 people were due to several burials per year over thousands of years. According to Jupp, a different scenario involves a comet collision and resulting tsunami just 500 years ago, described in Aboriginal and Maori legends, that was catastrophic to the populations of both countries, and may have even caused the extinction of the moa. As evidence he presents a large number of “lunettes” which are virtually the same as the Carolina Bays in the USA, and are accompanied by the same “black mat” of the supposed cataclysm of 10,000 years ago described by many recent books such as The Cycle of Cosmic Catastrophes by Firestone, West and Warwick-Smith .
