and later named after the famous commander. By the way, it is known that, heading to the North, Bering intended to open, among other things, Hyperborea, known to him by classical sources.
On the basis of the discoveries made, the strait was mapped in 1732 and only then became truly known all over the world. Where did he get on Mercator’s map? After all, it became the property of scientists and reading the public a map that once belonged to the Turkish Admiral Piri Reis: it depicts not only South America in the borders not yet opened by Europeans, but also Antarctica.
Piri Reis lived in the era of the Great Geographical Discoveries and became famous for being defeated by the combined Venetian fleet, previously considered invincible. However, the famous naval commander finished very sadly: he was accused of receiving a large bribe from the enemy and on the orders of the sultan cut off his head. Although the admiral himself has never sailed further than the Mediterranean Sea, his specific cartographic knowledge far outstripped not only Columbus, Vasco da Gama, Magellan and Amerigo Vespucci, but also the discovery of the Southern continent, made by Russian navigators Bellingshausen and Lazarev only in 1820. He himself did not make a secret of it and in the fields of his portulane personally drew, which is guided by an ancient map, created in theremen of Alexander the Great. It turns out that in the era of Hellenism about America and Antarctica knew no worse than in the days when these continents were rediscovered by Europeans.
The Antarctic Land of the Maud is depicted on a map free of the edge of the ice. According to experts, the last time the date when it was possible at all, moved from our days at least six thousand years.
At the same time, Piri Reis brings to clean water and Columbus. It turns out that the legendary navigator, whose name has long been a household name, used secret information, about thesoror preferred to keep silent.
Unfortunately, the northern part of the Map of Piri Reyes was lost. It is therefore difficult to judge his knowledge of Hyperborea. But the Northern Continent is well spelled out by other cartographers of the 16th century, and in particular, by the French mathematician, astronomer and geographer Oroncia Phinhei.
One of the most authoritative scientists of the Ancient World – Pliny the Elder, wrote about the hyperboreites, as a real ancient people, living near the Arctic Circle. It is believed that there are loops of peace and extreme limits of the conversion of luminaries. The sun shines there for six months, and it is only one day when the sun is not hidden (as the uninformed would think) from the vernal equinox to the autumn, the luminaries there rise only once a year at the summer solstice, and come only at winter. This country is all in the sun, with a fertile climate and devoid of any harmful wind. Houses for these inhabitants are groves, forests; The cult of the Gods is coping with individuals and the whole society. Death comes there only from the satiety of life.»
Even from this small passage from «Natural History» it is easy to make a clear pre-view of The Hyperborea. In other words, we can only talk about the polar regions, those that in Russian folklore were called the Sunflower Kingdom.
Another important fact: the climate in the North of Eurasia at that time was quite different. This is confirmed by the latest comprehensive research conducted in the North of Scotland under the international program. They showed that four thousand years ago the climate at this latitude was comparable to the Mediterranean and there were a large number of heat-loving animals.
However, even earlier Russian oceanographers and paleontologists found that between 15 and 30 bc the climate of the Arctic was quite mild, and the Arctic Ocean was warm, despite the presence of glaciers on the continent. That the powerful mountain formations – theridges of Lomonosov and Mendeleev relatively recently (10 – 20 thousand years ago) towered over the surface of the Arctic Ocean, and due to the mild climate was notcompletely shackled ice.
In line with the same ideas, Peter Boyarsky, the head of the Arctic Complex Expedition, successfully substantiates the hypothesis of the Grumant Bridge. once connecting many islands and archipelagos of the Arctic Ocean.
Convincing evidence of the undeniable fact of a favorable climatic situation that existed in the past, are the annual migration of migratory birds to the North – genetically programmed memoryof the warm ancestral homeland. In the summer of 1997, an ornithological expedition discovered a similar labyrinth onthe coast of the New Earth.
Indian scientist Gangadhar Tilak was the first to reflect the possibility of comparing Vedas with geology data as the science of Earth’s structure and development. After the publication in 1903 of his second book, The Arctic Homeland in the Vedas, many scholars began to re-evaluate the history of the folding of ancient Aryan tribes. He correlated the essence of the plots from the Vedas with the glaciation periods and came to the conclusion that both the original ariums and their ancient religion as a process of animation of objects and phenomena of nature should be associated with the era of interglacial, which shared the last two glaciations. It dates back to the last glacier 8—10 millennia BC, which is close to the data of modern scientists.
