Numerous evidence of
Pre-Historic Nuclear War exists
“Then the Lord rained down fire and tar from heaven upon
Sodom and Gomorrah, and utterly destroyed them….” Genesis 19:24.
My previous article in The Canadian , in which I reflected
upon my book Worlds Before Our Own, provoked dozens of inquiries from readers.
Some stated that one of the cable channels -- some thought it was the History
Channel; others, Discovery; still others, National Geographic -- had presented
“proof” that the “fused green glass” to be found in various areas had been
created by meteoric air blasts rather than prehistoric nuclear wars.
I remain open to many theories of Earth‘s prehistory. One of
those individuals prompted to write to me, who had the advantage of having
actually read Worlds Before Our Own, stated that I present “in a clear
and lucid style, information concerning anomalous archeological finds without
the hyperbole usually associated with this type of material.”
While patches of “fused green glass” may in certain instances
have been caused by air blasts from meteors, I wonder if such a natural
phenomenon could have created all twenty-eight fields of blackened and shattered
stones that cover as many as 7000 miles each in western Arabia. The stones are
densely grouped, as if they might be the remains of cities, sharp-edged, and
burned black. Experts have decreed that they are not volcanic in origin, but
appear to date from the period when Arabia was thought to be a lush and fruitful
land that suddenly became scorched into an instant desert.
What we know today as the Sahara Desert was once a tropical
region of heavy vegetation, abundant rainfall, and several large rivers.
Scientists have discovered areas of the desert in which soils which once knew
the cultivated influence of plow and farmer are now covered by a thin layer of
sand. Researchers have also found an enormous reservoir of water below the
parched desert area. The source of such a large deposit of water could only have
been the heavy rains from the period of time before a fiery devastation consumed
the lush vegetation of the area.
On December 25, 2007, it was confirmed by a French scientist
that excavations at the area of Khamis Bani Sa’ad in Tehema district of Hodeidah
province have yielded over a thousand rare archaeological pieces dating back to
300,000 B.C.E. Before a dramatic climate change, the inhabitants at that time
had been fishermen and had domesticated a number of animals no longer to be
found in the region, including a species of horse currently found only in Middle
Asia.
The Red Chinese have conducted atomic tests near Lob Nor Lake
in the Gobi Desert, which have left large patches of the area covered with
vitreous sand. But the Gobi has a number of other areas of glassy sand which
have been known for thousands of years.
Albion W. Hart, one of the first engineers to graduate
from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, was assigned a project in the
interior of Africa. While he and his men were traveling to an almost
inaccessible region, they had first to cross a great expanse of desert. At the
time, he was puzzled and quite unable to explain a large area of greenish glass
which covered the sands as far as he could see.
"Later on during his life," wrote Margarethe Casson in
Rocks and Minerals (No. 396, 1972), "he passed by the White Sands area
after the first atomic explosion there, and he recognized the same type of
silica fusion which he had seen fifty years earlier in the African desert."
In 1947, in the Euphrates valley of southern Iraq, where
certain traditions place the Garden of Eden and where the ancient inhabitants of
Sumer encountered the man-god Ea, exploratory digging unearthed a layer of
fused, green glass. Archaeologists could not restrain themselves from noting the
resemblance that the several-thousand-year-old fused glass bore to the desert
floor at White Sands, New Mexico, after the first nuclear blasts in modem times
had melted sand and rock.
In the United States, the Mohave Desert has large circular or
polygonal areas that are coated with a hard substance very much like opaque
glass.
While exploring Death Valley in 1850, William Walker
claimed to have come upon the ruins of an ancient city. An end of the large
building within the rubble had had its stones melted and vitrified.
Walker went on to state that the entire region between the
Gila and St. John rivers was spotted with ruins. In each of the ancient
settlements he had found evidence that they had been burned out by fire intense
enough to have liquefied rock. Paving blocks and stone houses had been split
with huge cracks, as if seared by some gigantic cleaver of fire.
Perhaps even more than the large areas of fused green glass,
I am intrigued by the evidence of vitrified cities and forts, such as those
discovered by Walker.
There are ancient hill forts and towers in Scotland, Ireland,
and England in which the stoneworks have become calcined because of the great
heat that had been applied. There is no way that lightning could have caused
such effects.
Other hill forts from the Lofoten Islands off northern Norway
to the Canary Islands off northwest Africa have become “fused forts.” Erich A.
von Fange comments that the “piled boulders of their circular walls have been
turned to glass… by some intense heat.”
Catal Huyukin in north-central Turkey, thought to be
one of the oldest cities in the world, appears, according to archaeological
evidence, to have been fully civilized and then, suddenly, to have died out.
Archaeologists were astonished to find thick layers of burned brick at one of
the levels, called VIa. The blocks had been fused together by such intense heat
that the effects had penetrated to a depth more than a meter below the level of
the floors, where it carbonized the earth, the skeletal remains of the dead, and
the burial gifts that had been interred with them. All bacterial decay had been
halted by the tremendous heat.
When a large ziggurat in Babylonia was excavated, it
presented the appearance of having been struck by a terrible fire that had split
it down to its foundation. In other parts of the ruins, large sections of
brickwork had been scorched into a vitrified state. Several masses of brickwork
had been rendered into a completely molten state. Even large boulders found near
the ruins had been vitrified.
The royal buildings at the north Syrian site known as Alalakh
or Atchana had been so completely burned that the very core of the thick walls
were filled with bright red, crumbling mud-bricks. The mud and lime wall plaster
had been vitrified, and basalt wall slabs had, in some areas, actually melted.
Between India's Ganges River and the Rajmahal Hills are
scorched ruins which contain large masses of stone that have been fused and
hollowed. Certain travelers who have ventured to the heart of the Indian forests
have reported ruins of cities in which the walls have become huge slabs of
crystal, due to some intense heat.
The ruins of the Seven Cities, located near the equator in
the Province of Piaui, Brazil, appear to be the scene of a monstrous chaos.
Since no geological explanation has yet been construed to fit the evidence
before the archaeologists, certain of those who have investigated the site have
said that the manner in which the stones have been dried out, destroyed, and
melted provokes images of Sodom and Gomorrah.
French researchers discovered the evidence of prehistoric
spontaneous nuclear reaction at the Oklo mine, Pierrelatte, in Gabon, Africa.
Scientists found that the ore of this mine contained abnormally low proportions
of U235 such as found only in depleted uranium fuel taken from atomic reactors.
According to those who examined the mine, the ore also contained four rare
elements in forms similar to those found in depleted uranium.
Although the modern world did not experience atomic power
until the 1940s, there is an astonishing amount of evidence that nuclear effects
may have occurred in prehistoric times leaving behind sand melted into glass in
certain desert areas, hill forts with vitrified portions of stone walls, of the
remains of ancient cities that had been destroyed by what appeared to have been
extreme heat-far beyond that which could have been scorched by the torches of
primitive armies. In each instance, the trained and experienced archaeologists
who encountered such anomalous finds have stressed the point that none of these
catastrophes had been caused by volcanoes, by lightning, by crashing comets, or
by conflagrations set by humankind.

Zecharia Sitchin (1985) devotes an entire chapter to a
discussion of nuclear warfare in ancient times in Mesopotamia and the Sinai
peninsula. In this book he also suggests the destruction of the Sinai “space
facilities” by nuclear weapons. He offers as evidence:
“…the immense cavity in the center of the Sinai and the
resulting fracture lines (see figure), the vast surrounding flat area covered
with blackened stones, traces of radiation south of the Dead Sea, the new extent
and shape of the Dead Sea – is still there, four thousand years later”.
