Ancient Cambodians Used Jars to Keep the Remains of the Dead Around 600 years ago, the people living in the remote Cardamom Mountains in southern Cambodia placed the bones of their dead in large jars on steep ledges hidden deep in the jungle. Ten years after discovering a large grave site full of jars, researchers are still baffled as to why ancient Cambodians used jars in this way.

The remains are believed be about 2,500 years old. The Plain of Jars is in the central Lao province of Xieng Khouang. The area covers hundreds of kilometers on which there are thousands of ancient stone jars. They are grouped together at about 100 sites. The Plain of Jars has been a mystery to archaeologists, or scientists who study prehistoric cultures. A joint research team from Australia and Laos found the remains. Dougald O’Reilly teaches archaeology at Australian National University. He led the field work in Laos. He says some of the jars weigh up to 10 metric tons. Some have been moved eight to 10 kilometers and were set in groups, he says. Little is known about the people who made the jars or their purpose. The latest field work uncovered an ancient burial ground in an area known as Site 1, in Xieng Khouang Province. It has more than 300 jars, thin round stones and markers. The scientists say the ancient people had different ways of burying the dead. They include burials of whole bodies and burials of containers of bones. Scientists will test the remains. They may provide information on the culture of the people linked to the sites. O’Reilly said it is possible that the Lao sites may be linked to similar jar sites in India. The effort may soon provide answers to one of Southeast Asia’s greatest cultural mysteries.

Archaeologists May Have Found The Burial Site Of St. Matthew

Archaeologists May Have Found The Burial Site Of St. Matthew

Archaeologists May Have Found The Burial Site Of St. Matthew
The ruins of a lost ancient civilisation have been found in a lake in Kyrgyzstan where Matthew the Apostle could be buried. Russian divers made the sensational discovery at Lake Issyk-Kul, where another metropolis was uncovered in 2007. The most astonishing discovery made by the divers was a piece of a ceramic pot with a stamp apparently inscribed in Armenian and Syrian scripts. This artifact could prove that there was an Armenian monastery on the lake where, according to legend, St Matthew's body and his many relics were buried. The divers from Tomsk State University in Siberia found more than 200 artifacts - thought to be from the Saka civilisation's 2,500-year-old settlement - between three and 70ft under the surface. This was made amid these ancient ruins but is from a later period. Analysis of the artifact is now underway but archeologists say the find may support a theory of a medieval Armenian monastery here. Some Orthodox Christians have long believed St Matthew, one of Jesus' disciples, was finally laid to rest here long after his death. Lead diver Dmitry Gorn said the stamped pot fragment was 'truly unique'. 'Experts are now working on the identification of the writings on the "stamp", but it's supposed to be Armenian and Syrian,' he was quoted as saying by The Siberian Times. 'If that proves to be correct, it will be further evidence that there was an Armenian monastery on Issyk-Kul in the 14th century where, according to the legends, the relics of Matthew were stored.' Another widely-held view is that the evangelist is entombed in Salerno Cathedral in Italy, which is dedicated to the saint. The Saka people of Central Asia were mentioned by Greek historian Herodotus, who lived in the fifth century BC, and were consumers of an ancient intoxicating 'drink of the Gods' called Soma. The level of the lake, the tenth largest in the world by volume and surrounded by the dramatic Tian Shan mountains, has risen dramatically since ancient and medieval times, which is why the ruins now lie underwater. The mysterious Issyk-Kul, has no known outflow, although some experts claim it is linked to a local river by a channel deep underground. It was on the Old Silk Road, and is the world's second largest saline lake after the Caspian Sea. 'The underwater archeological expedition allowed us to find a previously unknown Saka settlement with evident signs of bronze casting production on the bottom of Lake Issyk-Kul,' said Gorn. 'The expedition team conducted excavation using hydraulic pump, metal detectors and other appliances. 'We lifted over 200 items among them mainly pieces of ceramics, whetstones for sharpening knives, a piece of bronze ritual sickle, and many pieces of slag and traces of casting production. 'We managed to find a complete ceramic jar, supposedly belonging to Saka-Usun culture which was most likely used for rituals because it was found near a burial site.' Senior Orthodox churchman Vladimir, Metropolitan of Tashkent and Central-Asia, is on record as saying: 'St Matthew died in Syria. 'His followers, escaping from Rome's persecutions, brought the relics of the Apostle to this land. 'The sanctity was kept in an abbey, located on a beach of Issyk-Kul and all the Christian world knew about this fact.' A 14th century map by cartographer Abraham Cresques has been cited as supporting this view. The latest archeological expedition was led by senior Kyrgyz scientist Dr Vladimir Ploskikh who in 2007 discovered another underwater ancient metropolis at the lake, along with eroded Scythian burial mounds. Among the finds were bronze battle axes, arrowheads, self-sharpening daggers, objects discarded by smiths, casting molds, and a faceted gold bar that was a monetary unit of the time.

Plain of Jars, Lao's Mystical Prehistoric Landscape

Plain of Jars, Lao's Mystical Prehistoric Landscape

Plain of Jars, Lao's Mystical Prehistoric Landscape
The Plain of Jars is a megalithic archaeological landscape in Laos. Scattered in the landscape of the Xieng Khouang plateau are thousands of megalithic jars. These stone jars appear in clusters, ranging from a single or a few to several hundred jars at lower foothills surrounding the central plain and upland valleys. Initial research of the Plain of Jars in the early 1930s claimed that the stone jars are associated with prehistoric burial practices. Excavation by Lao and Japanese archaeologists in the intervening years has supported this interpretation with the discovery of human remains, burial goods and ceramics around the stone jars. The Plain of Jars is dated to the Iron Age and is one of the most fascinating and important sites for studying Southeast Asian prehistory. The Plain of Jars has the potential to shed light on the relationship between increasingly complex societies and megalithic structures and provide insight into social organisation of Iron Age Southeast Asia's communities. Lao stories and legends tell of a race of giants who inhabited the area ruled by a king called Khun Cheung, who fought a long, eventually victorious battle against his enemy. He allegedly created the jars to brew and store huge amounts of lau hai ("lau" means "alcohol", "hai" means "jar"—So "lau hai" means rice beer or rice wine in the jars) to celebrate his victory. Another local tradition states the jars were molded, using natural materials such as clay, sand, sugar, and animal products in a type of stone mix. This led the locals to believe the cave at Site 1 was actually a kiln, and that the huge jars were fired there and are not actually of stone. QUESTIONS? We would like to hear from you!

The Waste Land: Burial of the Dead (T.S. Eliot)

The Waste Land: Burial of the Dead (T.S. Eliot)

The Waste Land: Burial of the Dead (T.S. Eliot)
The Waste Land by T.S. Eliot ------------------------------- The Waste Land can be difficult to understand; this poem is made up of a series of perplexing, seemingly absurd statements, along with several cultural, literary, and biblical allusions. While many have tried to interpret Eliot's poem, I find that Eliot's notes are the most valuable resource in understanding The Waste Land. Though we may never have a definitive answer to The Waste Land's meaning, Eliot's citations provide helpful insight. Many of these references can be found on this website, which has been very useful to me: http://eliotswasteland.tripod.com/ The Waste Land can be read in two ways: it can be read by ignoring Eliot's allusions, acknowledging merely the literal text, or it can be read by keeping Eliot's allusions in mind. I believe that the allusions are crucial to understanding the poem. ------------------------------- As for the video, I have tried to keep my interpretation fairly true to the literal text. I have tried to avoid inserting my own personal hypotheses of the poem's meaning into this video. I have not suggested any insight to the greater "meaning" of the poem, assuming a definite meaning exists, but I have suggested certain themes; I have tried to emphasize the idea of fertility, new life, resurrection, etc. (In my "Background" notes below, I have noted the sources that Eliot has cited as influences of his work; The Burial of the Dead has many fertility/resurrection-based allusions.) ------------------------------- BACKGROUND ~Eliot cited the book From Ritual to Romance by Jessie Weston as a major influence of The Waste Land. This book is about the Holy Grail legend, and draws connections between pagan and Christian elements. Eliot also notes The Golden Bough, a book on ancient fertility rituals and the idea of sacrifice. (These themes of with recur in The Waste Land, thus I feel they are significant to note) ~The epigraph (which I have not included in the video) begins with the following: "I have seen with my own eyes the Sibyl hanging in a jar, and when the boys asked her 'What do you want?' She answered, 'I want to die." —Petronius, Satyricon. The Sibyl is immortal, yet she wishes to die. I consider this important to keep in mind-- What is Eliot suggesting by including this? ~"The Burial of the Dead" is the title of the first of the poem's five sections; the title should never be overlooked. ------------------------------- ALLUSIONS-- Here I have highlighted those allusions that have helped me best understand the poem. (There are several other allusions that can be found on the website mentioned in the introduction.) ~"With a wicked pack of cards." - This is referring to tarot. ~"I do not find The Hanged Man." -- In tarot, the Hanged Man "symbolizes the self-sacrifice of the fertility god who is killed in order that his resurrection may bring fertility once again to land and people." (http://eliotswasteland.tripod.com) -- What does the absence of the Hanged Man imply? ~"I had not thought death had undone so many. Sighs, short and infrequent, were exhaled" -- These lines come from Dante's Inferno, Canto iii. Canto iii describes the Vestibule, a place in Hell where Dante places those who fail to choose either Heaven or Hell . In the Vestibule, souls are not tortured as they are in Hell, yet they are not with God in Heaven, which Christians believe is the ultimate means of fulfillment for the soul. ~"Or has a sudden frost disturbed its bed?" -- "Both Flower or planting bed, but also with a suggestion of bed in its usual sense. The word fuses ideas of sexuality, death(bed) and vegetation - an example of Eliot's use of the Rituals Eliot found in Weston and Frazer." (http://eliotswasteland.tripod.com) ~"O keep the Dog far hence, that's friend to men, 'Or with his nails he'll dig it up again!" -- This is modeled after an excerpt from White Devil by John Webster. Webster describes "friendless bodies of unburied men" being covered by leaves and flowers. So, keeping this image of a sort of graveyard in mind: If a dog digs up the bodies of the dead, are these bodies being, in a way, resurrected? -- It is for this reason that I have included the image of the tarot Hanged Man card at 3:39. Remember, in tarot, the Hanged Man represents a fertility god's resurrection; his resurrection returns fertility (life) to a land void of such. ------------------------- Video Sources: http://www.archive.org/details/BerlinSymphonyofaGreatCity http://www.archive.org/details/PlayInTheSno http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ls8SPpRXgU http://www.archive.org/details/AmericaG1918_2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVAp8l5aE-c http://www.archive.org/details/trip_by_boat_through_grand_canyon http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yE7PwvMSmdo http://www.archive.org/details/EuropeanTrip Cleo A 5 De 7
