The Petroglyphs of Mu: Pohnpei, Nan Madol, and the Legacy of Lemuria

Carole Nervig discovered hundreds of previously unknown petroglyphs on Pohnpei, revealing how they have exact counterparts in other ancient cultures and universal motifs. She provides evidence that Pohnpaid is closely related to neighboring Nan Madol and was an outpost of the sunken Kahnihmueiso, a city of the now-vanished civilization of Mu. The author examines how the glyphs symbolize celestial phenomena and reveal how the citizens of Mu had a deeper understanding of the living Earth than we do, which gave them the ability to manipulate natural forces.

While residing on the small Pacific island of Pohnpei in the 1990s,Carole Nervig discovered that a recent brush fire had exposed hundreds of previously unknown petroglyphs carved on gigantic boulders. This portion of the megalithic site called Pohnpaid was unknown even to Pohnpeis state historic preservation officer. The petroglyphs were unlike others from Oceania,so Nervig began investigating and comparing them with petroglyphs and symbols from around the world. In this fully illustrated exploration,Nervig documents her discoveries on Pohnpei,revealing how the archetypal symbols of the Pohnpaid petroglyphs have exact counterparts in other ancient cultures and universal motifs throughout the world,including the Australian Aborigines,the Inca in Peru,the Vedic civilization of India,early Norse runes,and Japanese symbols. She provides evidence that Pohnpaid is closely related to--yet predates--neighboring Nan Madol and shows how Pohnpaid was an outpost of the sunken Kahnihmueiso,a city of the now-vanished civilization of Mu,or Lemuria. Discussing the archaeoastronomical function of the Pohnpaid stones,the author examines how many of the glyphs symbolize celestial phenomena and clearly reveal how their creators were sky watchers with a sophisticated understanding of astronomy,geophysics,geomancy,and engineering. She shows how the scientific concepts depicted in the petroglyphs reveal how the citizens of Mu had a much deeper understanding of.
