Scientists announce discovery of ancient buildings in the Amazon

500NewsWire

São Paulo, Brasil, Dec. 22, 2023 - ( 500NewsWire ) -- Humanity's greatest secret may have been revealed by the Dakila Research team with the identification of gigantic constructions in various parts of the Amazon region. After intense fieldwork carried out over 30 years, scholars defined the main area to deepen research in a portion of the territory of the municipality of Apiacás/MT, which became known as “Quadras de Ratanabá”, as it presents characteristics consistent with the existence of ancient civilizations. For this purpose, LiDAR – Light Detection and Ranging – was used mainly for the equipment that, based on light detection, allows the generation of a digital model of the Earth's surface, characterizing structures and vegetation. Analysis of these results shows very peculiar shapes in the relief that were not sculpted by natural forces. At this location in Apiacás, streets measuring 60, 70 and up to 90 meters in width and up to 27 km in length were identified, partly covered by sediments left by the last deluge. The courts measure 450 meters wide by 650 meters long and are symmetrically perfect. All measurements were made using LiDAR technology and the GPS device used in the field. Inside the blocks, the staggered formation covered by soil and vegetation can be clearly observed. It is, without a doubt, the greatest find that humanity has ever had access to. At the end of a few blocks, there are fountains of water that appear unexpectedly and, in a few meters, disappear into the ground, as if they were entering a sinkhole. Next, a GPR – Ground Penetrating Radar or Geo Radar – was used, which uses high-frequency magnetic waves to locate objects and structures under the ground. Exactly where the water disappears, galleries fifteen meters wide by four meters high and more than a kilometer long were identified, in addition to other neighboring galleries, indicating that the water was channeled into the galleries. Dozens of holes were located at the ends of several blocks, with 8, 27 and up to 48 meters in diameter, depth still under investigation. Most of these holes have a spiral shape and all are close to the networks of galleries identified by the GPR. Near these constructions, researchers find some skeletons of giants and several skulls, most of which are elongated both horizontally and vertically. According to the preliminary analysis, the skeletons correspond to individuals of 4, 9 and even 12 meters in height. It is an unprecedented discovery and will help create an important timeline for the origin of humanity, especially in Brazil. This part of the survey is so important that Dakila Research will carry out more detailed studies in the coming months. The CEO and president of Dakila Research, Urandir Fernandes de Oliveira, who is also the research leader, says that it was surprising that they were able to make so many discoveries. “There are so many traces that it would need at least fifty teams of nine people, on average, each one working at the identified points, not counting the logistics to overcome the difficulties encountered in the dense forest. Ratanabá extends far beyond Brazil and South America,” he revealed. Through LiDAR analysis, the team identified several pyramids, walkways, galleries, vaults, walls, staircases, ramps, balconies and more. A true urban complex mixed amid vegetation and sediments. “This is not an archaeological find, but a legacy left by a matrix civilization, which used super-advanced technologies, with architectural standards and design far beyond what we have today”, pointed out Oliveira. The building models of this civilization differ from anything that has been found to date, such as ruins, huts, and other rudimentary constructions. According to the research leader, the difference is striking, and, for this reason, the evidence obtained from Dakila's research cannot be considered archaeological findings, but proof of the existence of a large cosmopolitan metropolis hidden in the forest. About the archaeological findings, dozens of pre-floods and medieval cities were found in the regions of Manaus, São Gabriel da Cachoeira, Costa Marques, Apuí, São Miguel do Guaporé, Vista Alegre do Abunã, Lábrea and Serra da Muralha – all located in the north of Brazil. On the east side of the finds and amidst the vegetation, these discoveries have intriguing structures that continue into the forest and beyond the states of Roraima, Amapá and other locations. In the words of the president of Dakila Research, “Now these are archaeological sites. On the outskirts of Ratanabá, already on the surface, we found shipwrecks containing historical relics”. Advanced technologies All these places have petroglyphs, that is, drawings engraved in rocks, with a technology that is still unknown. Despite attempts to reproduce how these pictograms were made, there was never a plausible explanation that showed how these symbols were engraved, let alone their real meaning. Mapping the drawings in all these places, not only in Brazil, but in other parts of the world, the team of researchers from Dakila finally managed to unravel the mystery. "Throughout these years, we discovered that the illustrations were made by the remnants of the creators of the human race, who left true maps on stones shortly after the last great flood, so that in the future we could find again the various main bases of Ratanabá built in the Amazon. We found evidence of a tool they used called Cavital, a type of pencil capable of producing inscriptions and drawings in low and high relief on any surface”, clarified Oliveira. The most recent example was found at the Pedra Preta site in Paranaíta/MT. The team found the drawings of the Ratanabá courts in the petroglyphs and were able to plot them on top of the mapping done by LiDAR. "We have to think that there at Pedra Preta, the remnants drew what was left in their minds in an attempt to find these places again. So we don't expect perfection or symmetry in the drawings, but in proportion, checking the LiDAR study, they are correct”, pointed out researcher Fernanda Lima. Not only were maps and location indications discovered by analyzing the petroglyphs, but also the key to life extension and, who knows, rejuvenation, a technology and heritage left to mankind. Ratanabá keeps traces and information from a genetic laboratory, which the researchers from Dakila witnessed and where they collected data that show alterations made to chromosomes 2 and 3 and the P53 and P57 proteins in human DNA, causing our chromosomes to undergo considerable shortening at the base of telomeres during cell multiplication, thus causing diseases and aging of human beings. In the case of archaeological finds, except for Ratanabá – the heritage of Brazilians –, it was also possible to see three large cities, indicating that they are famous and coveted by archaeologists and researchers from all over the world: Akakor, Akahim and Ofir, true fortresses. From now on, Dakila's next steps consist of gathering the archaeological evidence from the research and producing a report to be sent to National Historical and Artistic Heritage Institute - IPHAN in Portuguese – for studies. Technical advice Archaeologist and geographer Saulo Ivan Nery, in his technical opinion on the LiDAR images on the Ratanabá courts, reported that the research carried out by Dakila Research identified anthropic cuts (made by human action) on the ground, which were compared with the nets of natural drainage in the region. Geological and geomorphological surveys were also used as a basis, in addition to data from the IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics), as well as data regarding the depth, width and length of the cuts. According to the archaeologist, in the images obtained with the LiDAR, the difference between the drainage patterns and the anthropic cuts identified in the structure known as “chess” recorded by the images is clear. A transverse cut was also observed in the residual plateau, demonstrating how the pattern of the cuts does not follow the logic of the water in the relief. The archaeologist also reveals that the “chess” is formed by cuts in the ground that intersect, forming what we call blocks. 29 sections were identified, of which only 4 were sinuous, and the remaining 25 were straight, indicating the anthropic origin of the structures. In turn, the historian and editor of Enigmas Magazine, André de Pierre, says that it is possible to observe in the images obtained through LiDAR straight lines that indicate buildings in ruins. He also stated that, historically, it makes perfect sense that a large city would have developed in that region in ancient times. As an example, he mentioned that archaeologists from the University of Exeter, in England, discovered evidence of ancient civilizations with up to 1 million inhabitants in the ancient world, in the southern Amazon alone. Furthermore, he mentioned the famous case of Colonel Percy Fawcett, who disappeared in the 1920's in the north of Mato Grosso, while searching for the lost city he called "Z". Professor Dr. Tadeu Leonardo Soares e Silva, from the State University of Rio de Janeiro - UERJ, says that, like all the research carried out by Dakila Research, this one also produced an impressive amount of data. Added to the quality of the analyzes carried out by the team, they will certainly transform the foundations of contemporary archeology, thus promoting the possibility of reconstructing human history. The former professor from Goiás, Francisco Pedro Charu Neto, graduated in Geography and with a master’s in theology, defended in a scientific article entitled “Ratanabá, lost archeology”, that the research carried out by Dakila “may put in check important periods of history and, with that, a good part of the books will have to be rewritten.” According to the professor, the group of Brazilians who have been studying archeology and ancient civilizations in the Amazon for decades, bring concrete evidence that, in some remote time, ancient and advanced civilizations lived in the Amazon region. Studies by Dakila Research, reinforces the professor, carried out through field expeditions (2004 - 2005) and LiDAR scanning over the region of Ratanabá blocks in the Amazon (2022), found geoglyphs, forts, pyramids, walls, large cities, huge underground galleries, coins, ceramics, swords, chests, solar disks, astronomical calendars, mathematical formulas, cave paintings, petroglyphs, artifacts of all kinds, Phoenician ships sunk in rivers, evidence of King Solomon in the Amazon and even traces and skeletons of giants. There are several archaeological finds that have been found around the world that prove that a race of giants walked the Earth in ancient times. And all of this being researched and proven by a group of Brazilians restructures the pillars of science. For Márcio Pichel, director of the Licentia Institute and the Além da Nuvem channel, based on historical research, there is enough archaeological evidence to state that advanced civilizations (coming from an East close to our continent) inhabited Brazil in the pre-Columbian period. However, he would like to draw attention to the Silurian Hypothesis, formulated by astrophysicists Gavin Schmidt, from NASA, and Adam Frank, from the University of Rochester, who published an academic article defending the hypothesis that, in a very remote past, perhaps on the order of millions of years, an advanced ancient civilization may have inhabited Earth. According to the hypothesis, explains Márcio, it would be extremely difficult to detect such a presence, if it occurred more than 4 million years ago. The name "Silurian" was given in reference to an ancient fictional race from the Dr. Who, who inhabited Earth hundreds of millions of years ago. On the geological time scale, there is also the Silurian period, from about 400 million years ago. “I believe that this idea aligns with the theory of Dakila Research about Ratanabá”, he said. The president of Dakila assures that the complex of identified structures is from a gigantic “mother civilization” originating from the Muril, the first inhabitants of Earth. “We proved that the beginning of all existing cultures and knowledge was, in fact, derived from Ratanabá, the cradle and origin of everything”, he celebrated, highlighting the relevance of Brazil in the historical context. The main advances of this unprecedented Brazilian research are disclosed in its official media on Instagram ( @dakilapesquisas and @ratanaba.oficial ), maintaining the transparency of information and proximity to everyone interested in Ratanabá.

YAADBridge Entertainment's Pioneering Role in Transforming the Caribbean Media Landscape

Prodigy Press Wire

YAADBridge Entertainment, a Jamaica-based film, television, and audio production company, seeks partnerships and investments to further its mission of building regional, international, diverse, and generational entertainment. Driven by its aspiration to create and market authentic Caribbean content to a global audience, YAADBridge Entertainment fosters collaboration between Caribbean people at home and the broader diaspora through top-quality multimedia production. Aside from full-service audio-visual production, the rising company provides diverse offerings, from creative consulting and talent management to digital content creation and photography. With its steadfast mission and all-encompassing services, YAADBridge Entertainment is gearing up to become the most sought-after production company for film and media production across the Caribbean. The establishment of the innovative company stems from the experiences of its founder, Sherando Ferril. While working as a lecturer at the New York Film Academy, where she also obtained her master's degree in Film and Media Production, Sherando realized the need for Caribbean stories to be told from the perspective of the Caribbean people themselves. The international award-winning voice, stage, and film actress emphasized, "There's a severe lack of authenticity in the industry—seeing Hollywood not use Jamaican actors to portray Jamaican and Caribbean experience. I realized that we depend on a system to tell our stories that do not live our experiences. Essentially, I want the Caribbean people who have lived these stories to be able to share them through YAADBridge Entertainment. We're not just selling film and TV. We're selling culture." Acknowledging the immense yearning for the appreciation of Jamaican culture, whether through music, food, or athletics, Sherando intends to address it through the services of the forward-looking production company. Upon its founding in February 2019, YAADBridge Entertainment had a remarkable start providing services focused on creative production, audio-visual entertainment, and talent development and management. Despite being slightly deterred from its roadmap due to the impact brought by the COVID-19 pandemic, the company calibrated and resumed creating multimedia content. One of the company’s recent ventures includes the Caribbean Casting Network, a project that aims to provide Caribbean talents and creators the platform to showcase their works. It intends to revolutionize the casting process in the region by opening doors for producers and actors, penetrating various niches, from film and TV show actors to theater performers and commercial actors. YAADBridge Entertainment is also about to launch its highly anticipated project, The Jamaican Bodyguard. The film revolves around Jamaican politics and society, where the line between light and dark, depravity and justice, is often blurred. This venture is another testament to the production company's dedication to telling Caribbean stories from a Caribbean perspective. To solidify its position as a household name for championing regional and international entertainment in the Caribbean and beyond, YAADBridge Entertainment is actively seeking collaborative partnerships and investments. This action is part of its efforts to expand its professional team and build the needed infrastructure for its multimedia production services. Ultimately, YAADBridge Entertainment is set to redefine the entertainment industry in the Caribbean.

David vs. Goliath: How Established Corporations Threaten Small Innovators' Protections

Pathos Communications

British innovator James Dyson once said, "If you didn't have patents, no one would bother to spend money on research and development." The problem lies when established corporations prey on the inventions of smaller firms and sole entrepreneurs, stealing trade secrets before the latter can protect their innovations and intellectual property. Powerful corporations have used this "efficient infringement" strategy, threatening inventors who develop exceptional products or services with concrete market value. Such is the case with the ongoing trial of Better Life Technologies Group, Inc. (BLTG), a small African-American technology company, against an American integrated managed care consortium. BTLG is an innovative company whose ethos centers on employing out-of-the-box solutions that address persisting challenges in the wireless wearable technology industry. One of its missions is to improve accessibility to life-saving technologies by lowering costs, all while promoting sustainability within the broader technological landscape. The Better Life Technologies Group alleges that the healthcare giant unlawfully appropriated its trade secrets related to wearable medical devices. In federal court, the latter was accused of breaching a nondisclosure agreement signed in 2012 about "a patent for technology for a wireless wearable device designed for patients suffering from diabetes, heart conditions, and other medical conditions requiring monitoring" and establishing business ties with BTLG's competitors to develop wearable medical devices, generating income in the process. By doing so, the healthcare provider and insurer potentially and unethically contributed to the growth of the industry, which is now valued in the billion-dollar range. It is worth noting that BLTG's patented technology (US 8,659,432 B2) covers human monitoring in aquatic environments and patient monitoring applications in healthcare settings and homes. George McKinney, the president and CEO of BTLG, remarked, "Our representatives initiated discussions with the healthcare provider's C-level officers between 2011 and 2012. We had multiple meetings about our physician-to-patient wireless-wearable communication technologies. The other party signed a non-compete, non-disclosure agreement with us through our sister company, ViQUAL Medical. We already had prototypes at that time but were looking for funding to bring them to the market." Hoping that its collaboration with the medical industry giant would facilitate the successful launch of its technology and devices, McKinney and its representatives put their trust in the latter. The story of Robert Eisenman, the founder of Global Life-Line, Inc., is embedded within BTLG's narrative as he was victimized by the disregard for innovators’ rights. Eisenman's invention, initially known as Safekey, was created after his life-altering injury as a national-level ski racer. His journey to recovery brought the conceptualization of a safety solution, which evolved into a groundbreaking concept incorporated by major automotive players. Unfortunately, external forces like economic downturns and corporate restructuring presented setbacks. Undeterred by the challenges, Eisenman adapted his invention into Safe Card. A turning point in his narrative occurred when one of Eisenman's engineers, after years of unexplained absence, resurfaced amid a legal deposition and admitted his unauthorized use of Eisenman's intellectual property. This revelation not only exposes corporate misdeeds but also highlights the challenges faced by inventors when collaborators betray trust. Studies show that firms standing at a crossroads between disclosing trade secrets and acquiring temporary monopoly for marketing their inventions opens the discussion surrounding choosing between patenting and secrecy, which is influenced by various factors, such as the nature of innovation, the ease of imitation, and competitor strategies. Ultimately, Eisenman and McKinney's legal battles underscore the hurdles faced by inventors in safeguarding their creations from corporate giants. The resolution of this case may shape future conversations around intellectual property, legal accountability, and the power dynamics inherent in the industry. Following this, it is significant to highlight that the primary objective of most healthcare services and technology companies is to help individuals receive the support and care they need. Witnessing technical innovation becoming integral to healthcare services, innovative technology companies make it their mission to bridge these gaps. McKinney and Eisenman, two visionaries in the medical and technological industry, emphasize the immense significance of advancing technologies to help people become better caretakers of those who need them. McKinney shared, "My father died in the hospital after falling out of his bed and fracturing his neck. I believe that if there were a second set of eyes, he would still be alive today." This is a testament to the importance of innovation in providing patient-centric care. Media Contact Name: Robert C Eisenman Email: gllsafekey@gmail.com Release ID: 847248
