Pharaoh's curse and Eldorado are still fascinating things.

Akhenaten and Nefertiti with their dhildren. 

We have all heard stories of Pharao's curse and eldorado, the mythic golden city that hiring in jungles. And those things are causing many discussions. So are Pharao's curse and Eldorado real, or are they just legends? 

If we think that the pharaoh's curse is real. We should ask, is that thing something in the pharaoh's body? Or, is it something in that person's food? 

There are many theories like a theory that Pharoh's curse is some kind of fungus that looks like psilocybin fungus. Priests in ancient Egypt used those mushrooms for hallucinations. 

There is always a possibility that some of those people just turned mushroom addicts and ate the poisonous mushrooms during their rituals. There is a UFO theory that the pharaoh's curse is some kind of intelligent fungus. In some models of interstellar travel, the neuron-fungi hybrid is used as the biological computer that controls the mission. 

 Or is it something that was put in the pharaoh's grave?  Is it something that involved the rank of Pharaoh? Or is it something that happens to the pharaoh when that person cannot lead the state anymore? Is it something like poisoning that person, when the leader is useless? 

Is eldorado myth, or is it real? 

Macchu Picchu (Wikipedia)

Sometimes is claimed that the Mythic Eldorado is the "Hombre dorado" or "Golden man". There is a possibility. That the original story means the man, who dressed in gold. So can Eldodaro or "el hombe dorado" mean pharoh? Did South American Indians have connections with Ancient Egypt? 

The Eldorado can exist at least virtually. There is the possibility that Eldorado is a spiritual thing. In that model, it's the state of mind, that people should contest. If Eldorado has some connection with the highest-class priests and their rituals, that means. It can be rather spiritual than a physical thing. 

It can be pyramids that are covered by using leaf gold. That means the golden city exists. But there is not so much gold as we think. Another thing that can explain Eldorado is that it's a story that Indians told to the Spanish. 

They advised conquistadors to the jungle they leave people alone. Or in some other version of that myth, the Cuzco was Eldorado, and conquistadors found it. Or maybe Macchu Picchu was Eldorado. And conquistadors took gold, but they didn't tell their supervisors. 

But they didn't know that Cuzco was the place. That it looked like there was lots of gold in that city. So that could mean that Cuzco was Eldorado. 

Or in some other versions of that theory, the Eldorado locates on Eastern Island, in Africa, or in Antarctica. Or even in Europe. The things that introduced support for that theory Are Djoser's and Croatian pyramids. And the strange pyramid-looking structures in Antarctica. 

If Eldorado is meant for the highest-class priests it can be anywhere. The form for the Eldorado can be different than we think. Maybe it's the room where those priests could speak freely without the need afraid of punishments.

Who found America part II?

The image I: Leif Erickson's statue in Boston

The founder of America is a mystery. But we know that Cristopher Columbus (1451-1506) was not the first European in America.  Neanderthal people traveled to the North America by following the isthmus that connected North America to Asia. When we are talking about the pre-Columbian journeys to America, we must realize two things. 

1) The journey to America is not the same as the regular journeys. Maybe some pirates visited New World a long time before Columbus. And that could explain why those pre-Columbian explorations are not told to people. That means those pirates or outlaws might rest in that land. And that means they wanted to keep it secret. 

In some other versions, the noblemen hide gold or pieces of jewelry that they stole from the crown to the New World. Out from the eyes of the king. It could mean very big trouble if somebody is caught stealing the king's gold. So the beaches of America could be good places to hide the gold taken without permission. 

2) The new lands were explored and marked to the maps when they were allowed to mark. And permission came from the ruler of the nation. 

So there is the possibility that the explorers put the explorations in storage that they would not cause disappointment for their financial supporters. And maybe those explorers sold the instructions where to find new islands to their friends. So that means that this thing was a very lucrative business. 

 And the main thing is that the maps were not so good during the time of Columbus as they are today. There was a possibility that the ships sailed out from maps. And maybe the skippers were not told that thing to the crew. And if that thing happened in the Atlantic Ocean the ship must only take the course back to east. That maneuver took the ship back to the mapped area very easily. 

Images II and III: Djoser and Yucatan pyramids

Europeans were active in America 1000 years ago claims new studies. The fact is that I presume myself that the Carthaginian admiral Hanno the Navigator (5th century BC) was probably one of the first sailors who might find America. That man lived in the fifth century BC. But the pyramid of Djoser that built during the rule of the pharaoh Djoser (c. 2670–2650 BC).

And its similarity with the Mayan Pyramids in the Yucatan peninsula is giving a tip.  Europeans or Egyptians knew America about 3000-2000 BC. So we cannot say that Columbus found America. The thing is that there is evidence that Leif Erikson (c. 970 – c. 1020) the son of Erik the Red (c. 950 – c. 1003) lived in Newfoundland in c. year 1000. But the thing is that there was suspicion that Leif Erikson was not the first European in America. 

Image IV: The Columbus Voyages to America 

The thing is that the Egyptians, Sumerians, and Phoenicians might travel to America over the Pacific ocean. During those trips, those explorers could benefit the Micronesian archipelago. Or they might travel through the land to Angor Watt and then over the Bering Strait to the new world. So we know that Columbus was not the first man, who saw the New World. 

And in fact, that man ever visited on dry land when he traveled through the Atlantic ocean. There is the theory that Columbus bought the instructions on how to find the new world. And maybe that man once visited the new world before he offered the great exploration for his funders.
