In
terms of tourism the Sybil Cave is a popular archaeological
site which is located on top of a volcanic hill, it is the 'acropolis
of Cumae, in Pozzuoli, in the province of Naples. This site
is not only important because it is the oldest Greek colony
of Italy,: its origin in fact dates back to IX-VIII BCE, when
colonies ofrom Chalcis coming from Eubea allocated on this surface
already inhabited by indigenous peoples more backward . But
another reason that makes this place so important is the so-called
Sybil's Cave, the place where the Sybil of Cumae prophetized
the future. This enigmatic trapezoyd-shaped cave was attached
precisely at the residence (or "job") of the famous Sybil of
Cumae, consecrated to god Apollo: it is said that this ancient
priestess, whose origins are lost in myth, the expected future
responding so enigmatic and ambiguous questions of the ancient
Greek warriors, but alsoRomans that asked her before leaving
for the war. From her no coincidence comes the term "sibillino".
Officially, the tunnel was built by the ancient Greeks and then
by Romans already mentioned, being produced in two periods:
the first between the sixth and fifth centuries BCE, when they
were excavated in a very hard tufa bank the gallery and room
of the oracle then later in IV-III century BCE, was amended
and extended. |
Another hypothesis attributes the origin of the cave
in more recent times, as some archaeologist said to have been dug
at the time of the Second World War in order to use it as a bunker
or a munitions depot.
A reflection, however, comes to mind: Romans or Nazis, why take the
trouble to dig trapezoid-shaped instead of a simple rectangular tunnel?
Certainly looking at the Cave as a whole, it does not make much of
the Roman styling! In fact from a careful analysis one can see a striking
resemblance to the tunnel that leads to the famous tomb in the Mayan
pyramid of King Pacal, Palenque in Mexico. The thing is already glaring
in itself: but this is not the only example, well others are archaeological
sites in the world in which they were found similarities with this
monument. Recall for example the trapezoyd doors of Etruscan tombs,
in Tuscany and Lazio, also somewhat mysterious, or even our thoughts
turn to those megalithic walls of Inca people in Cusco in Peru and
Ollantaytambo. Very strange matter, if we think that all these old
people were far from one anothr thousands of miles but with one thing
in common as peculiar as the "Trapezoyd shaped door".

Today we are trying to understand what is really the
meaning of this type of geometry in the past. Many assumptions are
made by official science to explain what really was this Cave, to
whom it was built? Which function had it? And why of this shape?.
Somebody speaks about the union of masculine (square) to female (triangular),
who supports a thesis climb towards the heavenly perfection…
We don't know, there is no evidence. But entering the cave, five meters
high, two and a half wide and about 131 meters long, we see that on
the right wall are opened nine openings also trapezoidal, while at
one point we see inscribed on the wall a deep hand-dug imprinted into
the rock. Towards the middle of the corridor on the left there is
a square shaped room with three trapezoidal rooms placed into cross.
These three openings are lower and accessed by a small stairs placed
on the left of every room but today barricaded. At the bottom of the
rooms are placed some basins which vaguely remind sarcophags but much
smaller . Shortly forward, always on the left of the Dromos, there
is a small room few square meters wide and about 1.60 m high, and
a singular angular stone similar to a "sofa" . Arriving
later at the bottom of the tunnel there is a square room through an
arch, but this one is rounded- shaped, and immediately on the left
is accessed, through an arc but lower than the previous one, in what
should be the room of the 'oracle, even here with three small arches
placed into cross. For a person who logs in the first room and looks
toward the oracle has been the impression that there sholud be a lobby
and that the tunnel could continue through the three doors, but now
we realize that these are closed, as if enormous cubic blocks obstructed
the entrance to further tunnels. It seems a bit strange that after
such a long corridor, suddenly the cave ends in what should be room
of the oracle large only a few square meters, and if we look carefully
the three doors do not appear to be well dug in rock, but from cracks
in the corners seems that three boulders closing entries, among other
things on the central one there are engraved deep furrows. Other odd
we can see along the corridor: on the walls there are large holes
of about ten centimeters on both sides, as if the beams had crossed
from one side to another on the walls, while small niches open on
the left wall. Finally, on the sides of the cave there are a kind
of step, as if something was supported above.

As mentioned earlier, looking at the cave of Pacal
sarcophagus is very similar in shape at the Sybil's Cave, including
this "step" on the wall at the bottom. In fact the covering
plate of the sarcophagus of the King based on these projections. This
will make us think that something like plates could be placed in the
middle of the tunnel, perhaps along the entire corridor. But if so,
if the Cave was not a tomb, what was its purposee? And in the oracle
room with three doors, if they were such things, what could hide behind?
Maybe some secret chambers or even other corridors that lead who knows
where. Perhaps the famous access into hell that the poet Virgil said
in his famous Aeneid.
The whole area of the Phlegraean Fields is connected to the myth
of death and the Ades. The near Lake Avernus for classical concealed
the entrance to Tartarus, the Greek-Roman peoples of the afterlife.
It is no coincidence that Virgilius sends here his hero Aeneas to
meet his father Anchises in the Champs Elysees, and perhaps not surprisingly
below the level of the Sibyl's Cave there is the Roman Crypt,an example
of underground architecture and engineering connecting the area of
Cumae just as Lake Averno, connecting it to the Cave of Cocceio. The
tunnel is explored for 180 meters, beyond the debris might still continue,
unexplored.
Cuma is a fantastic place and out of the world, but there is another
famous place that has a kind of architecture in the shape of a trapezoid.
This strange style lies within the great Pyramid of Cheope in Egypt,
in silouette of the Great Gallery. It is not enough: here is, in the
Queen Chamber, a sort of false keystone in the wall formed by the
masses of the pyramid. This presents similarities with another door
in a Mayan archaeological site in Xocicalco in Mexico.
The Great Pyramid Gallery of Cheops clearly
shows the trapezoyd architecture .
|
The Queen Chamber always in the Great Pyramid shows this
strange opening in a vertical wall.
|
At Xocicalco, Mexico, the Mayans built a temple with the
exact same opening Keystone present at Giza: the meaning
of these structures is unknown.
|
We are now thinking
of how it is possible that all these ancient cultures had the same
type of architectural significance and that could take the shape
of Keystone. What could unite Cumae with the Mayan culture, with
that of Egypt and the Incas? All this presupposes that there has
been one very ancient culture or even antediluvian, who made the
same type of architecture in all these places in the world, a type
of megalithic built by a technologically and advanced civilization,
once again all this leads us to the civilization of Atlantis. It
is said that the Etruscans descend by its inhabitants of the mythical
continent, and the same is said also, about Mayans, Egyptians and
Incas and probably these progenitors were landed, after the Flood,
also in the area of Cumae. Given this possibility and why digging
right here the cave, we think that from west, a few kilometers from
the archaeological complex, lies the island of Ischia, where as
we have already mentioned in our previous article on Hollow Earth
, there should be one of the entrances to the underground world
of Agharti, linked also to the people
of Atlantis. Just in the Phlegraean Fields there is a legend that
speaks of the mysterious people of Cimmerian
mentioned by Homer in the Odissey. This people was linked to the
Phlegraean underground world, ancient inhabitants of the cuman area
living underground long time before Greeks and Roman arrived. They
are also cited by Strabo, some describes them as a people who lived
in houses under the ground called clays and through tunnels, they
visited each other "- a type of population that recalls the Anasazi
Indians of the United States and the city of faeries of the of Cappadocia
in Turkey and that the ancients identified with the dead to be leaving
from the Ades. So it is likely that the same, maybe just entering
from the Sybil's Cave or perhaps from a place near there, arrived
to Ischia and who knows from there until the middle of the Earth,
until Agharti. Maybe just behind the mysterious doors of the Oracle
could conceal one of the entrance to this mysterious underground
world …

Cave there is an underground city, which is still being excavated
by archaeologists, connected to a tunnel that leads to the
Cocceio Cave in Lake Avernus, the entrance to the Underworld
Kingdom according to the Ancient People. Perhaps a link with
the underground Kingdom of Agharti? One of the inputs to this
mysterious world is traditionally located on the Epomeo Mount
of Ischia. And there is Ischia, not far from Cumae (photo

were actually bases for launching the famous Vimana, the aircraft
of antiquity described by Hindu texts ...
