The Newport Tower

The Newport Tower
Medieval stone tower ... in Rhode Island. Does it look like any other Colonial structure you've seen? Recent carbon dating of the mortar indicates 1400s construction date (see post below).

The Westford Knight Sword

The Westford Knight Sword
Medieval Battle Sword ... in Westford, Massachusetts. Can anyone deny the pommel, hilt and blade punch-marked into the bedrock?

The Spirit Pond Rune Stone

The Spirit Pond Rune Stone
Medieval Inscription ... in Maine, near Popham Beach. Long passed off as a hoax, but how many people know the Runic language? And how is it that some of the Runic characters match rare runes on inscriptions found in Minnesota and Rhode Island? Carbon-dating of floorboards at nearby long house date to 1405.

The Narragansett Rune Stone

The Narragansett Rune Stone
Medieval Inscription ... in Rhode Island's Narragansett Bay. This Runic inscription is only visible for twenty minutes a day at low tide--is this also the work of a modern-day, Runic-speaking hoaxster?

The Westford Boat Stone

The Westford Boat Stone
Medieval Ship Carving ... in Westford, MA. Found near the Westford Knight site. Weathering patterns of carving are consistent with that of 600-year-old artifact. And why would a Colonial trail-marker depict a knorr, a 14th-century ship?

The Kensington Rune Stone

The Kensington Rune Stone
Medieval Inscription... in Minnesota. Forensic geology confirms the carvings predate European settlement of Minnesota--so did Runic-speaking Native Americans carve it?

The Hooked X Rune

The Hooked X Rune
Medieval Runic Character ... on inscriptions found in Maine, Minnesota and Rhode Island. But this rare rune was only recently found in Europe. This conclusively disproves any hoax theory while also linking these three artifacts together.

My New Book--Thief on the Cross

My new book is now live on Kindle. Title is, "Thief on the Cross: Templar Secrets in America."

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006OQIXCG/ref=rdr_kindle_ext_tmb

Here is summary:

******************************
Why would a collector of ancient American artifacts hand over his prized pieces to a historian and then shoot himself in the head? And why does an ancient Templar scroll in his possession refer to Jesus Christ as “The Thief on the Cross?”

The answer places historian Cameron Thorne at the dangerous intersection of secret American history and modern geopolitical intrigue. Following clues contained in both ancient American artifacts and medieval European masterpieces, Cameron and his fiancée Amanda Spencer race to uncover the true secrets of early Christianity before a splinter group of Mormon zealots silence them forever.

Just as they did in "Cabal of the Westford Knight: Templars at the Newport Tower," Cameron and Amanda discover, examine and interpret ancient artifacts and legends scattered throughout North America that reveal a history of European exploration long before Columbus. But how do the Burrows Cave stone carvings, the Bat Creek Stone, the Prince Madoc legend, the Book of Mormon and the Mandan tribe of “White Indians” relate to the medieval Templars? Only when they learn about the head of Baphomet and examine Leonard da Vinci’s Mona Lisa and Virgin on the Rocks do the pieces finally begin to fit together.

What they learn shocks them. And may get them killed.
*******************************

(Warning: The title and subject matter are a bit controversial, and may be offensive to readers with strong Christian beliefs.)

This is a “soft” release for friends and family, priced at $2.99 for the first few weeks. My hope is that early readers will notify me of any typos and also post reviews if they like the book. The physical book will be available in a few weeks.

Your quest for information is similar to my own. Reason being is that today is a reflection of the past. All roads, all wars lead back to the Vatican/Jesuits/Rothschild machinations. I need to know if it is true that the first Pope came into power by having Isus's mother, Mary murdered. Also a Polish friend of mine with a relative in the Vatican said that many there now are demonic and have usurped the real role of the Vatican. He proposed that the Templars were Christian Jews and that the real purpose of their crusades is not what history records. Do you know who the first first first pope was and is this possible?

Hi,
nice work about runic.. but u must t examine the scriptures of gokturk. a few linguist can read runic on europe with Turkic Alphabet... And finally, native americans from altai... altaic people are Turkic nation... if you follow Prof. Dr. Kazım Mirşan, maybe you can read native americans runic in old Turkic language...

Is there evidence of a connection between the Turkish language and the Native Americans?

Engin Esen said...

to David,
Sorry, I forgot to write my name. My name is Engin.
i dont know exactly is there any official evidence... but i interested in languages as an amateur... some words are same... or i asked what that meaning of some words to my Native American Friends... they haven't got any idea... for example; Athapaskan,athabaskan... in new turkish "atabaşkan"...
ata: father, ancestor or grand grand father like progenitor...
başkan:president...
it is very reasonable...
perhaps you want to examine the link.

I'm interested in the alphabet in the scriptures. These scripts are proto-Turkic characters. Maybe you'll read the first with proto-Turkic alphabet.

Hi Engin. Your timing is very opportune--perhaps you can help with something. We have been looking at the Bulgar runic alphabet in conjunction with the Westford Boat Stone, as this alphabet contains both the "open-topped 8" and "open-topped 4" glyphs. I believe this Bulgar script is related to Turkish runes. Can you offer any insights? Thanks!

Engin Esen said...

hi again,
firstly i want to say that; the word "bulgar" is a Old-Turkic word. ethnic origin as the Turkic. referring to the period before Islam and Christianity. more precisely, so I know it. Before the influence of Religions and Slavic culture becomes normal to write the Turkic inscriptions. and also have to say that; modern Chuvash Language is a subgroup of Old-Bulgar Language. but after the influence of Slavic Culture Bulgar Language leaved and assimilated to the Slavic (early cyrillic) language and culture...
bulgar language,if you read the Danube Bulgars, you see Orhon Scripts (Gokturk Scripts) before Slavic assimilation (a.c. 9th century );

bulgarian language:

I hope that will be useful for you.

best regards...
