Several famous maps from before the 16th century, such as the map of Piri Reis and the map of Orontius Finaeus, show that there was a land bridge or connection between South America and Antarctica. This land connection gave rise to the possibility of possible relations and cultural exchanges between these two continents.
These maps also show Antarctica as a less ice-covered region, even though the continent is currently completely covered in ice. The question arises as to how this information came to these map makers. Were they transmitted by ancient civilizations that had more advanced science and geographical knowledge?
1959 Antarctic Treaty
The Antarctic Treaty was concluded in 1959, signed by 12 countries (now over 50). The purpose of the agreement was to make the South Pole a peaceful area for scientific research and to protect its resources.
But some key provisions of the agreement raise questions:
1. There is a total ban on military activities at the South Pole.
2. No country can claim sovereignty over the South Pole.
3. There are strict restrictions on air flights and tourist activities at the South Pole.
These measures are necessary to conserve resources, but it is also said that the South Pole has some secrets that are being kept from the public.
Conspiracy theories and hidden secrets
According to some theories, the South Pole may contain remains or information that indicates the highly advanced sciences of ancient civilizations. These theories include:
1. Ruins of Ancient Civilizations:
Some believe that under Antarctica there are traces of civilizations that were even more advanced than the ancient Egyptians or Mayans.
2. Impact Energy:
It is claimed that ancient civilizations used energy sources that we now call impact energy. This energy worked without any wires or connections and was extremely efficient.
3. Nazi Experiments:
Another conspiracy theory is that during World War II, Nazi Germany set up some secret bases in Antarctica, where they experimented with advanced technology.
Modern-day maps and geographic segregation
In maps after the 1959 treaty, South America and Antarctica are shown completely separately.
This separation can be seen as an attempt to portray Antarctica in the public consciousness as an isolated place, made almost impossible to access.
Important Questions
1. Why was research restricted to the South Pole?
2. Why are possible historical or scientific discoveries being hidden?
3. What is the reason for the discrepancy between the ancient map and the modern map?
All these questions lead to a wide debate and deepen the mystery of Antarctica.
