Welcome to RI🌧
It’s simply not true that Bernard de Clairvaux founded the order of the Knights Templar. But one of his uncles was among the founders. The Cistercian monastery in Cumberland is a modern one. Such gross misinformation is stunning.
The masons want you to believe they are the Templars , this is awful
Has anyone noticed, or am I seeing something. Making something out of nothing.
If you take two pillars of the Newport Tower and make a line on the outside of them. Towards the center. But not all the way. Now, do the same with the other pillars. Connect the top parts, one line to another. That makes the Templars Cross.
Is there something buried in the center of the Newport Tower? Then there are some kind of notches on the inside of the Tower. ?
I have some rare Ancient Egyptian Cocoa Puffs to sell this guy.
Something else it looks like my Launchpad for the bill we’re moving on Germany’s time machine launch pad or Saturn 5 launch pad for Apollo 11 and there’s other ancient sites that looks just like that
Yours truly Jody Terry please tell me if I’m wrong
Historians deal to much with History according to today,,but that was another time period
I have been to America Stonehenge very impressive
I am surprised the show did not contact someone like Anthony Aveni, who is considered the father of American archaeoastronomy and is astronomer by training. A few simple measurement and bearings put into the proper computer program would answer the questions about the Venus alignments. The ancient Maya also made very detailed study of the cycle of Venus which is 584 days. Although the Maya were extraordinary mathematicians they never discovered the true arch, so we know they didn’t build it.
Oh wait, Im getting a text…
The SANGRE REAL or ROYAL BLOOD which morphed into SAN GREAL, is the womb of HIS wife, Miriam (Mary) the Magdala……Not a CUP
Why didn’t Columbus find this?
A thing to really keep in mind is …how much evidence has been over looked and potentially destroyed during modern day construction…
The tower looks like one they uncovered either Scotland or Ireland
Well Scott… they didn’t “evolve”, they DEVOLVED!!! HA!!
Has any geophysics done to see if there are foundations of the tower that would support the outer circle structure that might have been lost.
How can the light through the box in the tower come through if he thinks it had a domed roof on it? Can’t have 2 contradictory theories.
I was against anything on TV and then I realized that where they hide the stuff that some folks deem woo woo crazy.
Let’s see what hints the mainstream are putting out…
Scott does great!
Dude who did huntin hitler was really well done show too
Has this guy been right about any of his theories? I watched a few of his videos and the best he ever does is end up unsure. Usually he’s proved wrong
Wish those would stop taking away clues that others came to the US first 🤦♀️
God almighty has this world in His hands, even Satan may be the "prince of the air" (has the most influence) right now. It is the Separatist and some the Puritans that actually found this Country for Christianity. When that light has nearly gone out, Jesus will return. We are just about there now.
35:48 min. Ultimately it turned out to be a miracle of the Sun, not that of the Venus. If one slot was for the Sun, the other slot could be for the Moon… and we will have to wait for the occasion when the Sun rays and the Moon rays kiss each other.
Here is my question (and I would be very grateful if someone could help), if Cumberlandite is only native to the minuscule concentration of land in Rhode Island, there is no way the Templars would have known it to be the rock of Venus unless they themselves named it that. If that is the case, what would be the draw to calling it that? It would also dampen Wolter’s theory since it’s placement in the south tower wouldn’t have been for the sake of the name.
You could argue that someone native to the land told them it was a rock of Venus, but the theory is that the Templars went to America prior to Columbus colonization. Native American’s certainly didn’t practice a religion with Venus…just curious
Did you include the precession of the equinoxes into your calculations of the position of Venus? The precession is one degree in 72 years. That’s 7 degrees in 500 years, or 14 times the apparent width of the moon, a sizable error if you are figuring things from the sun’s orbit across the ecliptic. I may be mistaken, so contact an astronomer at an observatory. .There’s also some excellent software packages that can generate useful sky maps that can adjust for precession of the equinoxes. Interesting hypothesis though.
This guy is more gassed up than oak island. What a joke. This is not history, this is "what if" and "it must be"
come to new ross nova Scotia Canada
I was planning a pack ride in 1993,,and I went to the Army Surplus store in North Las Vegas,,the owner owned a mile deep cave in Blue Diamond,NV..in 1970 decade ,he climbed down the cave ,,but saw something reprehensible, possibly a statue or set of murals
35:40 – How close can we get to John Williams’ "The Miracle of the Ark" without actually being John Williams’ "The Miracle of the Ark?"
It looks like a clock tower
Venus is the ONLY planet (also in mythos) that has a birth. Venus 1st appeared in writing just before the Exodus -1600 BC-(Kolbrin Bible Also) Venus is Lucifer-Quetzalcoatl-Isis and On and On AND the cause of the 10 plagues of Egypt-The parting of the sea and the waters "STANDING IN A HEAP" and I think this presenter is brilliant . Good work Scott.
Weird… in his book "1421", Gavin Menzies says he thinks the Chinese built it.
Why is there a statue of Saint Joan of Arc in Portland, Oregon?
Why is Joan of Arc celebrated in New Orleans each year on her birthday January 6th (Epiphany of Jesus Christ?).
Why does Marquette University have a Saint Joan of Arc chapel, the oldest building in the western hemisphere still used for its original purpose, since it was built and later disasembled and moved to the United States?
Why did Confederate (CSA) General Robert E. Lee of the State of Virginia surrender with his ceremonial sword which bore an inscription upon it which was one of General Joan of Arc’s famous quotes?
Why does the state Flag of Virginia show Joan of Arc atop a fallen King Henry of England? whose left breast is exposed where Joan of Arc took an English crossbow bolt at the raising of the Siege of Orleans, and whose bare breast was exposed to clean/dress her apparent mortal wound which she recovered from that same day to go on to conquer?
Is Joan of Arc the HOLY GRAIL?
Her sacred HEART survived both English crossbow bolts and the executioner’s fire. Is the heart of Joan of Arc an ARC REACTOR just as the heart of the supreme God of the Hindu religion, Lord Krishna, is believed to be an ARC REACTOR (which survived the flames), and just as the contents of the ARK of the Covenant is believed to be an ARC REACTOR (when opened causes radiation sickness/disease)? Is Joan’s ARC REACTOR heart kept hidden today at the Louvre glass pyramid museum in Paris, France?
Joan of Arc meets that definition of Holy Grail Person:
(1) she was a virgin and attended by virgins (Saints Catherine and Margaret). (2) Joan had the power to create kings (Charles VII).
Holy Grail Cup:
Not only this, but Joan of Arc’s comrade in arms, Good King Rene of Anjou (son of Yolanda of Aragon, Spain, Duchess of Anjou), was said to be in possession of the Holy Grail Cup which bore a mysterious inscription upon it, "He who drinks from this cup will see God. He who drinks from this cup all in one gulp will see both God and the Magdalen." This last part appears to be a warning not to drink from the cup in an unworthy manner or else face the wrath of Mary Magdalene (and Joan of Arc). Joan’s motto was "JESUS MARIA".
The Templars have both Mary Magdalene and Joan of Arc as their patron saints. The Templars contend that Joan of Arc is hereditary Knights Templar nobility, descended from the Kings of Jerusalem (royal house of Anjou). The Queen of France was Marie of Anjou (daughter of Yolanda of Aragaon — Duchess of Anjou). She was married to King Charles VII of France whom Joan of Arc crowned King. Was King Charles VII of France the illegitimate son of Joan of Arc’s father, Jacques d’Arc, with his union with Isabeau of Bavaria, Queen of France married to "gone mad" King Charles VI of France? Did Joan and Charles have the same bright red royal birthmark in common which ran down the backside of the neck starting below the right ear? Why was Yolanda of Aragon (Duchess of Anjou) so influential in Joan of Arc taking command of the armies of France at the age of 17?
How did Joan of Arc know where to find the lost ancient sword of Charles Martel which he had used to stop the Muslim invasion of Europe in 732 A.D. at the battle of Poitiers/Tours, France? Joan carried the sword (which bore 5 crosses) into battle at Orleans to raise the 7 month long English Siege of Orleans in only 7 days time.
DID YOU KNOW? that evil Queen Sibylla of Jerusalem (royal house of Anjou) who lost the city to Muslim King Saladin in 1187 A.D.. may be the evil woman mentioned in the MAID OF LORRAINE prophecies who lost France? Joan of Arc is said to be the virgin who restored France, mentioned in the ancient prophecy. The Pope has since declared France to be the Tribe of Judah of the New Covenant. — Pope Saint Pius X, 1909 A.D.. He also proclaimed Joan of Arc to be both the GLORY of France and the Universal Church.
What went wrong in ISadore. Well, entitles- they felt they were of equality to God and Lucifer. And that is not correct. No one is equal to them- they do hold us as equals. But we are not equal to them.. Anyone of high ranking or anyone that has been under their rule- would never consider that they should be equal to them. We needed the final punsihment kingdom.
Didn’t the french gift us the statue of liberty. He keeps saying our founders made it.
Astrologer checking in. Your information about the visibility of Venus is way off. The cycle of Venus visibility is independent from the solstices and equinoxes. The node of Venus, where she crosses the ecliptic moves also. The retrograde cycle of Venus is the longest of all the planets because of how close Earth is to the orbital speed of Venus. 18 months elapse between retrogrades, which is longer than 1 year, so the cycle moves through the whole zodiac in 5 retrograde cycles, which draws a pentagram in the sky if you trace the pattern over time. Thus the pentagram windows in Templar churches. Venus will only ever be visible at Winter Solstice if the retrograde cycle coincides with that time of year. Also all of the planets but the Sun can go what is called ‘out of bounds’. Depending on where the node of Venus is she can appear higher or lower than the ecliptic, that is more than 23 degrees north or south of the celestial equator. For example the next retrograde cycle of Venus begins in 2023 with the Sun in Leo. The whole cycle is 40 days, so by the time the Sun gets to Capricorn, tropical not sidereal, Venus may or may not be visible. It’s just as likely for Venus to be in conjunction with the Sun and utterly invisible as for her to be a morning or evening star. Morning star is the end of a retrograde cycle, evening star heralds a retrograde up and coming. I hope this clarifies the issue. Scott is a wonderful geologist, but he could use some lessons in astronomy.
The SANGRE REAL or ROYAL BLOOD which morphed into SAN GREAL, is the womb of HIS wife, Miriam (Mary) the Magdala……Not a CUP FFS.
Typical stubborn, pigheaded Rhode Islander.
it’s so crazy to me how all this ancient history of what these windows were for (capturing the light of Venus, for example) is practically lost knowledge here in the states, where it is still very well known in Europe.
_When a geologist pretends to be an archeologist, and has "theories"._
God this is so damned scripted that it’s painful to watch.
Not set for the 21st
You cannot trust history.
Jesse Ventura- X-Files, “WHAT YOU SAW WAS THE PLANET VENUS!!”. lol
I bet you wont believe it if I told you but….it is underneath the White House… George Washington which is a known freemason, He Picked the exact spot and the Architect for the Whitehouse and starting building on OCT 13, 1792. If you look on the map, you see a Portugal Cross to the north of the Whitehouse, and to the sides, you have the Templars cross. north of the cross you have the star. Its perfect.
I mean, historically it is said that the land where the tower is was empty until Benedict Arnold built his mansion there, so it was a personal mill… cuz theyre rich. ALSO the church on that old map lines up with the monastery in Cumberland…. why ignore that fact? ALSO ALSO the Narragansett Stone is widely debated on whether it is real or not.
Those upper holes are for the roof supports. Scott even shows the roof would have had an overhang Wich would block the upper holes
Where was the Statue of Liberty made and who designed it? Think about it do some research.
History’s not wrong Scott Wolter! Momma says you’re wrong!!!
United States 6 letters 6 letters =12 is a multiple of 24 which is letter X in the alphabet the divine feminine is represented by numbers 13 and 24 which also is connected to the moon cycles.. 13 moon cycles and venus birth / rebirth sacred love within and through the divine ..also he is definately right and onto something he just needs a numbers person like me ha ha ha joking! Spirit speaks to me through numbers every symbol has a link to numbers
keystone Viking long ships I believe…..maybe pirate ships.churches.forts.castles. all archways.
I think.
I think they’re buildings look like upside down long ships or long boats.
even Barnes..
throw some dirt mud and grass on top.
.hey.
roof.
just my own observation.
