The Lost Knowledge of the Ancients: Were Humans the First? Part 3: Science in Antiquity.

вЂњBy all means, Socrates,вЂќ said Simmias вЂњwe should be glad to hear this story.вЂќ If I may tell a story, Simmias, about the things on the earth that is below the heaven, and what they are like, it is well worth hearing.вЂќ

But the things in that world above would be seen to be even more superior to those in this world of ours.

For this earth of ours, and the stones and the whole region where we live, are injured and corroded, as in the sea things are injured by the brine, and nothing of any account grows in the sea, and there is, one might say, nothing perfect there, but caverns and sand and endless mud and mire, where there is earth also, and there is nothing at all worthy to be compared with the beautiful things of our world. вЂњthat by reason of feebleness and sluggishness, we are unable to attain to the upper surface of the air for if anyone should come to the top of the air or should get wings and fly up, he could lift his head above it and see, as fishes lift their heads out of the water and see the things in our world, so he would see things in that upper world and, if his nature were strong enough to bear the sight, he would recognize that that is the real heaven and the real light and the real earth. The translation of the text is as follows. A Case of Ancient Spaceflight?ДЄ quote by Socrates (470-399 BC) recorded in Phaedo is one source of such speculation. As a result, it is not surprising that some speculate that the ancient Greeks and other similarly advanced civilizations, such as ancient China and India, may have been even more advanced than is currently believed, even capable of ancient spaceflight. Aristarchus of Samos proposed an essentially heliocentric cosmology millennia before Copernicus, and Archytas is credited with inventing a steam-powered flying machine long before the Wright brothers invented their powered flying machine in 1903. We seek to retell the story of our beginnings.The ancient Greeks are credited with having made many early advancements in science and mathematics which influenced later western civilization. Our open community is dedicated to digging into the origins of our species on planet earth, and question wherever the discoveries might take us. WeвЂ™re theВ onlyВ Pop Archaeology site combining scientific research with out-of-the-box perspectives.Д«y bringing together top experts and authors, this archaeology website explores lost civilizations, examines sacred writings, tours ancient places, investigates ancient discoveries and questions mysterious happenings. TheВ goal of Ancient Origins is to highlight recent archaeological discoveries, peer-reviewed academic research and evidence, as well as offering alternative viewpoints and explanations of science, archaeology, mythology, religion and history around the globe. And while some people may seem content with the story as it stands, our view is that there existВ countless mysteries, scientific anomalies and surprising artifacts thatВ have yet to be discovered and explained. AtВ Ancient Origins, we believe that one of the most important fields of knowledge we can pursue as human beings is our beginnings.
