Good-bye to Stephan Milo and Hello Maurizio Russo and the World of Giants.

If you read my last monster of an article, it covered Stephan Milo's vedio on little enigmatic tablets from the time of cuneiform, and I believe I was able to catch Mr. Milos attention. I am not going to lower myself to sharing dribble, but I know I have been heard at some level. I am used to being a skeleton in the closet, and standing in Mr. Milos closet is not too bad. I think I may be the only skeleton in here! In any case, he is beginning to see the light. The thought that somehow humans are void of instincts is just silly. I think he sees what I am pointing out; that there is a connection between humans and stones that goes far back to the beginning of man. Maybe if I stay quiet and still as a good skeleton, Mr. Milo will begin to start to graph some dots onto our timeline. I have the pulse under my fingertips. We are close to cracking it open, so if you find me talking directly to Mr. Milo at times, it is because he is listening. With all that said, I will not be covering Stephen Milo further. The notion of being shoved into a closet is really not okay. I have enlightened him and that is all we need at this time. He will see it for himself in no time. Once you see this ancient material it ignites the brain to see more. We wish him luck. Our instincts were established by our predecessors through practice and repetition. They say it takes 3 generations of artists to create a great artist. Maybe this may insinuate that it takes 3 generations of intense practice to establish that genetic memory. MAYBE 😉.

I have started a couple new projects that I am exploring along with a new lead on the history of the megafauna that included giant humans. The new pattern is the giants are carrying large blocks. I have a few more patterns that I want to take off the back burner and start placing them in front for all to see. I am jumping way ahead of the academics and it might send heads spinning, but I think if I can pin down the idea of the stones are providing human history, we may even get a timeline teased out. I am going to lead with the article describing the patterns on ancient hand axes. What I am suggesting is that the hand axe developed by the early erectus was crucial to our survival. It was designed and created by humans and then repeated and passed down to the next generations. Passing on the patterns of knapping the form of the axe, allowed for the generations of humans to persevere. In the article below I try to display the consistent flaking sequence that has remained the same for millennium.

I am also including another article covering an African axe that begins with a female navigating a huge bundle of coconuts. The palms of the coconut tree I believe are a timeline. I am beginning to see this lady of the coconuts may be a mitochondrial eve that represents the survivors of of an ice age or other bottleneck from the Pacific. I have chosen a 1.2 million year old artifact from Tanzania for this analysis.

https://karolabryant.blogspot.com/2024/06/the-third-eye-brought-to-you-by-lithic.html

I have no doubt that there was some, if not great, capacity for organized thinking to create this axe that was already at an industrial production. Although some of the dimensions vary, the sequence of reduction has changed little over a million years. I am trained as a printmaker. The reductive work one does in printing, as in woodcuts, takes planning. You have to visualize your project in reverse. Unlike painting that you can add or paint over changes, you can not correct mistakes in the reductive method of creating images. What I am trying to say, I went of college to study this method, and here we have humans creating images many times better than I could ever imagine doing myself today. I am not a Picasso fan, but he noticed, too. We have done little improve on the art of the ancients. Like many other modern artist Picasso was not creating anything modern at all, but merely rediscovering the grandeur of the ancients. So, here is one of those moments when I am talking directly to Stephan Milo, the ancient humans were in many ways, ahead of us.

Okay, so we have an axe created over a million years ago and the art on it is already way over our heads, but we can do this, but first, we need to really clear your head of any dribble from the corrupted history that has blinded many. I want to suggest that there is a cycling of bottlenecks that can be placed on a timeline and I believe that this coconut tree is a good place to start looking. In the past, I have focused on the Raptormaiden as the Mitochondrial Eve as she flies to help and rescue humanity, but here is a passive approach to survival. Imagine a large female sitting on a huge pile of coconuts. She may have been transporting a cache of coconuts via water. She has created a net made of rope braided from the coconut palm. She has a growing coconut palm for shade which is also good for a catching a little wind. She has plenty of resource for making more braided rope to make repairs to stay afloat. There is no worries about food and water or even vitamin C since the raft of coconuts are the supply, and it is regenerating as the the coconuts palms grow over time. I suspect she had some ballast stone to keep her upright. There is so much available as resource from the coconut that she had no worries. You can spot her pet coconut crab that was like a handy can opener. She really looks relaxed with out a care in the world. I believe she was our first long voyager. She is far from the character the Raptormaiden, but is she also a Mitochondrial Eve?

This is when my timeline comes in. The Raptormaiden seems to lose out with the disappearance of the megafauna birds. She may have lived on like a few of the mammoths, but the lady of the coconuts was not dependent on any extinct fauna, just coconuts and a crab. Please, take a look at the million year old design of the hand axe and see if you can make out the coconut palm and coconuts with the lovely female enjoying her transoceanic ride.

I did mention this pattern when I was visiting with Professor Samuel Hanes form the University of Maine. He may have been humoring me, but he seemed to take note of the mention of the possibility that a raft of coconuts with a lovely lady at the helm was the first design for the first transoceanic vessel. The universities are working hard. I keep the archeology department informed of my progress, and I hope it is inspiring new ways to explore our past. I anticipate, eventually someone will retire from the department and take my offer to cowrite an article and give some insight to the design in the stones, and its effect on the present day.

We are living in a difficult time. We are finding ways to compartmentalize in order to navigate through all the traps and triggers. I am finding strength in the design as I find it as a testament to human ingenuity. I can only hope that my work can offer some of the same to my fellow humans. My work has triggered a kneejerk response in the past. I have had people react strongly as I challenge so much they believe, but I am finding that over time, folks are beginning to come around. I often have to point out that what I am offering makes a lot more sense than gods or aliens. I believe we are self-made. I believe we have evolved by hanging on to our boot straps. I believe we are amazing with room for improvement. Please, bear with me a moment because this is a big step for most. I am exploring the notion that humans had the world mapped out long ago. I know the academics have a tree all worked out of who is allowed to be called human etc., but in my book we were all human. If we had a tool in our hand and recording our history in stone, we were human. Whether we were big or small or any color, we were part of human history. So get ready for the jump because I am really hanging out on a limb here. I was a competitive diver as a kid so I enjoy this, and I am hoping you, at least, can enjoy watching me take the plunge. Below, I have clipped a map of the world currents, and I have found that the two representations, of what I am thinking may be the Mitochondrial Eves, are derived from the knowledge of the world oceans and their currents. Take a long look at the shape offered by the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. I have been working long enough to spot it. The large venous we have been following as a template for so many subjects, fits into the Pacific like a glove. Could she be the lady that lounges on the raft of coconuts? If you follow the path of the coconut, it most likely originated in the Central Indo-pacific region. That a beautiful female was transporting a raft of coconuts for trade or simply for self sustenance as she navigated bottlenecks, escaping overpopulation, or simply savvy intrapreneur, makes perfect sense to me.

I am bringing this up mainly because it is becoming more evident in the layers, that the earth was well established in the minds of the ancients. This is not the main focus of this article but it is part of the process as I remove patterns from the back burner. This gives of the opportunity to start keeping it in mind as we continue pushing back human history. Could there be more information offered by the changes of the Venus's figure over time? Could her shape have a connection to the rising and falling water levels? Is she describing the contours or the ocean? Is that a possible timeline? Can we match the figure of the Venus with a particular time and activity in human history? Were our ancestors documenting ocean level and currents and their activities at that time on the Venus figure? Maybe that is worth following up on. 💙

I have had success with mapping out the different layers using my Samsung Galaxy with a stylus. I love it, and would encourage any one really wanting to get into the layers, to get this setup. I allows me to work just about anywhere. I am a trained artist with plenty of fine arts and history credits. I am fast and accurate with my lines which may make my work look easy, but with practice, I believe anyone can do the same. Although I am fascinated with uncovering all the layers electronically, I am more impressed how it transfers to drawing and painting. I live in Maine, where it is a hostile cold environment. Winters here are long and our growing season is short. It is not surprising that the venus I found on the monuments and stones in my garden do not provide a lovely pile on coconuts. What I found was a warrior female standing her ground and carving her way through the ice age. I really love her image and identify with her spirit. Below, is a sketch I created from the image on the stones. There are other renditions but this is the one that I focused on. Others, that I have documented, are more primitive, at a time when she lived independently in large tree hollows, and seem to represent an earlier human ancestor like the famous Lucy. As an artist, sometimes you have to let it go. Like a well trained athlete, executing a dive. You have done it enough times that the moves are established in your cerebellum and muscles. In order to carry out that perfect dive the athlete lets go of the micromanagement. The diver lets the well honed body take over, and execute the dive perfectly with out conscious interference or over thinking all the moves involved in the execution. It is with this mindset that I approach my art work.

Above, is my first real effort to capture the Raptormaiden on canvas. It was created with the spirit of staying as true to the design as much as possible. There is a definitely a coordinate system that one must acknowledge or the design quickly falls apart. Like a mapmaker, if there is a mistake in the initial graphing, the error is easily compounded, distorting its accuracy. I worked on canvas with charcoal and colored chalk choosing colors consistent with the palette identified in the stones. I then was able to test my effort by creating fractals that I could work with, and sure enough, it worked like a perfectly oiled machine. I was then encouraged start painting, still in progress, but the results are sublime.

We have picked up how the ancient artist began to use the established pathways by their predecessors to add layers containing their experiences. The artist could use the templates from the previous artists' efforts to dress in the style preferences of their time. Like a Vogue magazine cover, the latest could be posted that would best please the masses of the times and record the patterns of their era. I demonstrate the consistency below in an earlier article. Please, take the time to enjoy. It will fill in some of the gaps for you if you are a new follower. I also suggest that you follow my reels on Facebook. I will eventually need to set all my reels up on YouTube to post directly. I am sticking to the FB reels for now, because they allow me to set up music that enhances the viewing.

The mapping of the earth with the ocean currents has been on the back burner for a long time. I have even picked up efforts to record temperature and size of icesheets along with water levels. I am presenting it now, to start softening up the brain to the idea. Look at the gesturing of the maiden as it appears she is assisting to a birth from the narrowing land of Central America. Is she suggesting that the Pacific Ocean gave birth to the Atlantic through this venue? Looking at the map of the Atlantic Ocean, if you can imagine scrolling in to the opening of the Penobscot Bay, you will see my house😇.

Just when I think I have gotten past one of heads of the monster, this articles seems to grow another. I am not complaining, these heads are worth exploring and this particular head is sublime. I as I explained, I have been trying to reel in Stefan Milo for a while now, trying to send him my articles explaining Lithicliterature. I am hoping he is not a usurper and that he is confident enough to take me in as a collaborator, but I am not holding my breath. I had to stop in the middle of writing this article to deal with Mr. Milo's recent article where it is becoming rather obvious that he is acknowledging at some level, that my messages were being received. The first inkling that I noticed was when he posted a image of enigmatic clay tablet that I used to show him that there was more to it. When I went back to see if there was a sharper shot of the tablet, he had deleted the image I was working with from his post! I thought, "hmmm, that is odd, why would he delete that particular tablet?" I am certainly not trying to upset anyone, I really believe what I am offering as an alternative way to study the past that might be in his best interest. I have been upfront and truthful in my communications. The next clue that was picked up was his interview with Dibble, where he proposed questions about a human presence on in and around the ever moving icecaps, as well as the possibility that the hand axe may have become part of the human list of instinctive behaviors. The last nail in the coffin was the image of him with batman in the background. We all know that if there is a batman mentioned, if is not a coincidence. I have been through the fire when it comes to sharing this material about Lithicliterature, and I have endured. In the end, it was a purifying blaze. I believe my efforts have paved the way for others to pursue this line of study without fear of persecution. I can only reassure folks that we have come along way since the Inquisition, and you may have more support than ever to acknowledge the sophisticated art and documentation of our predecessors. I am going to backoff on Stefan Milo and let him stew in his own juice and continue on with more important activities, like getting through this monster and get on with painting projects. Now, let's pop back to that sublime monster head that has moved me and filled my heart.

There are many interesting stories on the painted , maybe neanderthal, pebble posted below, but for this moment, I would like you to let all that go. It's a good time to take a break and clear the palate. 🫖🍵🐕.

Great! You are back. Thank you for all your support. I am thrilled to find this particular scenario on this painted pebble. What I am making out here, is the possibility of a world map. I have spotted this here on the Americas as well. I have great respect for the indigenous peoples of the Americas. We are all Americans. I am originally from Venezuela and have a squirt of indigenous DNA from that area, but I am more than aware of the suffering of the indigenous peoples of the America's brought by European colonization. It is a huge can of worms. I do not feel comfortable using any stonework that has been claimed by the American Indigenous People. I did work with the Smithsonian Indigenous Museum in NYC for a couple of years, but I left them out of respect. They have started their own efforts to reclaim their contributions to Lithicliterature, but I assure you Lithic literature is every human's history. There is so much to unpack with Lithicliterature! Now, back to our painted pebble.

Please, please, please, stop and take a moment to follow my reels on FB. The reels have lend themselves nicely to mapping out the brains function, as is works with the fractals set up by the artist. The chosen fractals were designed to create a story with additional characters. This was intentional by the artist. Below, I have added the links to reels that are fascinating. It takes a few views for the brain to adjust but it will give you a shot of endorphins when you catch on.

Sometimes some of the kettles on the back burner start boiling and the whistle blows and it is time to see bring it forward and give it stir. Now that we have our world map set up by the ancients we can continue with our exploration of the testing of our layers.

Let us see how the pattern of the coconut crab does in other settings to see if it holds. The palms have been mentioned in my past articles as they follow the lifting of the head of the languishing sailor. We have mentioned how the palms seem to express the passage of time as the palms generate. The coconuts are also well documented in previous articles and the coconut crab is front and center.

I have started exploring a set of standing stones in Switzerland posted above, at the suggestion of Maurizio Russo. I am very lucky to have him on board for my exploration. My first encounter with Mr. Russo was at the airport heading to the Azores. A big man reminding me of one of my uncles, actually it was my godmother's father. I have explained that I have realized that before I can really make headway with this material, it requires making people aware that it exists. I have to share and explain this phenomenal opportunity to learn directly from those living in ancient times. You can imagine me getting all animated explaining to Mr. Russo the purpose of my trip to the Azores, but the surprise was on me, when he divulged he was on the same road. I am thrilled to report that he has a background in engineering, but not any engineering, he is actually specializes in ships, and even better likes to write in his spare time. After sharing material over a period of time, it became clear that we could collaborate. As a novelist, Mr. Russo has agreed to use my research to produce his work. I am so grateful for this opportunity.

When you flip it upside-down you can follow the story of the male giant. He is beautiful, but then takes a turn. Its like watching him become schizophrenic. That's when you watch him start eating the smaller humans. Boats are also very important to him. It may take a few viewings for your brain to pack it all in. These reels are really useful. The brain loves them and the music is soothing. Watch it upside-down as well, and over a few days, your brain will pick up the new material. Your giant heroes are here. This is the DNA your looking for, but remember, eating brain is a risky habit and can expose the consumer to an array of brain diseases like mad cow disease etc.

The stones often give warnings about danger behaviors, or possible solutions to different problems. CPR is a layer to deal with a drowning victim, or choking child. I believe a contributing factor to the giants down fall may have been exposure to brain diseases due to there consumption of the smaller primates like Erectus, in other words 😳 us.

I know this article is a real mess as I try to switch gears and focus on the giants. The thing about finding the truth about something is that all of a sudden there are a large number of connections that become evident as the truth is uncovered. I am thinking I am going to end this article as the messy spider web that it is and start fresh with a focus on the giants. I beg you pardon. I am leaving you here with a series of images that you can explore to ready yourself for the next article where I begin to map out the life and times of the giants. I am hoping that my research on the giants in the stones will help guide Capt. Maurizio Russo as a compass rose to create a narrative for a novel that both entertain and enlighten the masses to the design in the stones. I leave you with a few studies of the stones found in Switzerland and parting words for Stephan Milo.

I must say Mr. Stephan Milo, I am not a Dibble fan, but nice try. its hard to hear your conversation with Dibble and not squirm with disillusionment. I see a glimmer in you and I believe you can do this. Think of a field 🤔 🙄. You see the horizon, where the field meets the sky as you traverse following the well carved path. The low growing fern does not challenge your brain as anything more. To you, it is low growing fern and nothing more. Now, what it someone mentioned that you stay on the path because it is mating season for a giant frog 🐸 😉 😀 and that what you were thinking was a fern was actually a field of frogs, you would start looking at that field very differently. That is what I have offered 🫴 you, but rather than a field of fern, it is a pile of rocks, and instead of frogs, historical documents. I have learned my lesson. I will not be a skeleton in anyone closet again. It is unbecoming for all involved.

Switzerland standing stone with coconut tree and palms spotted below.

Please, take a look around the standing stones of Switzerland to ready yourself for the study of giants. I have picked two stones from Switzerland. The one below has some cupping noted in the upper right. I have picked up the Pleiades star cluster that is often associated to sailors and fishermen.

After a quick overview you can spot the faces common in the design as well as the distribution of warm and cool colors. Do not forget that the design has the ability to tell a story as you turn it.
