• There’s a lot of speculation about it being a nuclear shelter, but that is unlikely, as nuclear shelters typically require thick, reinforced walls and are often built underground. This structure, with its visible stonework and seemingly less robust construction, appears more suited for historical or religious use rather than modern military or survival purposes. • Given its location in Jinan, Shandong, this could be a historical site, possibly used as a secluded spot for meditation or small-scale habitation. These types of hermit structures are significant in many Asian cultures as spiritual retreats. "Those look like blast doors. With handles on the outside of them which means they were meant to be accessed from the outside. This is most likely a storage container for TNT, or other blast ordinance for mining the mountain. Its high up and away from civilization but at one point its location was convenient but as the mining became deeper into earth, it was forgotten and neglected even it's undersides blasted away condemning it. No use in wasting ordinance because it is inaccessible now." Aegean Girl (X.com) SOURCE Science girl

During the 12th and 13th centuries, for reasons that are still not entirely clear, an incredible number of towers were built throughout Bologna, making for a urban skyline that almost resembles modern-day Manhattan. Today, only 22 remain. One of the possible explanations for the vertical construction craze is that rich families used the towers as a symbol of wealth and status, as well as for defensive purposes to guard their land. Some of the smaller structures were built as dwellings. The exact number of towers built in medieval Bologna is not clear. It was suggested that up to 180 towers were present in the city as of the 13th century, but a more realistic amount is probably around 100, which is still very impressive considering how difficult it was to build such tall structures with the limited resources of medieval Italy. After the 13th century, some towers were demolished, others collapsed, and many were destined to different uses, such as residential or commercial buildings, or as prisons. The last demolitions occurred in the early 20th century, along with the 14th-century city walls. Of the towers that remain today, the most famous are the “Two Towers”: the 320-foot Asinelli Tower and the truncated Garisenda Tower, both of which are leaning.

In 1908, President Teddy Roosevelt wanted to declare the Grand Canyon off-limits to all timber and mining operations. It would take another 11 years for Congress to designate the Grand Canyon a national park. Sensing a final opportunity for adventure, explorer G.E. Kincaid took a boat down the Colorado River and through the Grand Canyon. The canyon was rich in minerals like gold, silver and copper and Kincaid wanted to see what he could find before the area was closed off for good. About 40 miles up-river from the El Tovar Crystal canyon, Kincaid saw stains in the sediment formation about 2,000 feet up. He tied off the boat and got out to investigate. Kincaid couldn't find a trail, but after a short hike he found something interesting covered in desert brush. Steps. Hundreds of them. Carved in sandstone. Steps that wound their way up to a high shelf on the side of the canyon. He followed the steps until he came across a cavern entrance. An entrance that was clearly man made. Kincaid entered the cavern and turned on his flashlight. On the walls he saw writing. But it wasn't English or Native American writing. It was Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphics. Kincaid lifted his flashlight and saw that the tunnel ran far into the distance. He didn't realize it at the time, but this was only the beginning. THAT FATEFUL DAY G.E Kincaid was well-known for being an explorer and hunter. On the day that he would make his stunning discovery, however, he was simply on a routine expedition, floating the Colorado River and looking for minerals. Kincaid was all by himself when he noticed “stains” way up on the wall of the canyon above him. For whatever reason, he decided to do some unplanned exploring. Whatever he saw must have particularly motivated him. Because Kincaid hiked until he was 2,000 feet above the river – only 1,500 feet below the rim at that point. Eventually, he came to the mouth of a cave. According to his own personal journal, where he described his discoveries, he came upon a crypt full of mummies. Each with their own personal shelf. He reportedly took notes and photographs and collected several artifacts before leaving. Along with the news of his discovery, he shipped these artifacts to the Smithsonian Institution in Washington D.C., where he had a number of contacts. This is according to the Phoenix Gazette article, anyway. By the time their front-page article was published, the team of scientists had explored Kincaid’s cave much more thoroughly. More passageways extended from the main one that Kincaid had originally entered. These lead to multiple rooms as wide as thirty or forty feet. A stone idol was reportedly found. The statue resembled Buddha. Traveling nearly a mile into the rock, the researchers came across a huge room with many passageways leading away from it. Similar to the spokes of a wagon wheel. They described storerooms full of seeds. As well as a dining room more than 700 feet long and a room that stank of a “deadly, snaky smell. Archaeologists supposedly uncovered copper instruments and war weapons, cups made of gold, pottery work, and hieroglyphic writing. These artifacts suggested an origin not in this country, but in the Orient. Today, the Smithsonian Claims to Have No Knowledge of This Discovery The long story on the front page of the Phoenix Gazette clearly indicated that the Smithsonian Institute had sent between thirty and forty archaeologists to help Kincaid excavate he discover. Today though, there are no artifacts or information to be found about the underground settlement. One Smithsonian rep explained that “… no Egyptian artifacts of any kind have ever been found in North or South America. Therefore, I can tell you that the Smithsonian Institute has never been involved in any such excavations.”

After the passing of Admiral Byrd his son found his diary and eventually published it. This is a small excerpt from the book titled, The Missing Secret Diary of Admiral Byrd. By Richard Evelyn Byrd. It is still available at major book retailers. I do not claim validity of this story. That is up to you to decide. I do find this story to be a great addition to my Mysterious Tales playlist found here... Admiral Richard E. Byrd, a renowned American explorer, is said to have kept a secret diary that was discovered among his materials maintained by Ohio State. This diary provides a detailed account of his exploratory journey to the North Pole. According to the diary, Byrd believed he had reached the North Pole during his flight. However, some scholars dispute this claim, suggesting that he may not have reached the pole. The diary was found hidden in a weathered 8-by-9-inch brown notebook. In a more controversial account, it's claimed that Byrd's diary describes an off-course journey during a seaplane exploration to the North Pole, where he entered a cavity in the Earth. This account suggests the existence of a "hollow earth" and describes a truly astonishing encounter. Byrd allegedly met beings of a super nature in a glowing city made of a crystal-like material. This version of the diary, often referred to as the "missing journal," describes Byrd's experiences in this inner world, which he referred to as the domain of the Arianni. The diary includes descriptions of his interactions with the inhabitants of this inner world and their advanced technology.

Stranger Things was released on Netflix in 2016. The Duffer Brothers based their series on a conspiracy from 1992, the original story published by Preston Nichols in the book The Montauk Project: Experiments In Time. With the hopes of developing super soldiers like Eleven, the US government implemented decades of psychic experimentation and encountered extra-dimensional beings, invisibility, and time travel. The conspiracy of the Montauk Project begins with an even earlier conspiracy: The Philadelphia Experiment. In the summer of 1943, the USS Eldridge left the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard a skeleton crew and orders to test a top-secret technology meant to render it invisible. However, when the technology was engaged, a green fog emanated from the ship before it briefly disappeared. When the ship reappeared, it revealed a horrific scene. Some men been vaporized; others had fused with the bulkhead of the ship. In 1988, Al Bielek claimed to have been one of the men onboard the USS Eldridge during this experiment. He jumped overboard with his brother and slipped through time, landing in 1983 in Montauk, New York. The Air Force controlled a base there called Camp Hero, and it was here that the Montauk Project took place. Utilizing the SAGE radar, researchers initially experimented with frequencies and their effects on the human mind, similar to the Gateway Tapes. These experiments progressed as the researchers discovered new capabilities from their subjects and equipment. They conducted remote viewing and control experiments, similar to MK ULTRA and Project Stargate. Then, they opened portals through time, sending exploratory crews of soldiers, scientists, and civilians, not dissimilar to the exploration of The Upside-Down. Finally, an extra-dimensional being was manifested through the portal. This creature had a different appearance to each witness, and it likely served as the inspiration for the Demogorgon. It attacked the soldiers and destroyed the equipment, eventually leading to the abandonment of the experiments and the base. The Montauk Project developed a cult following as it was signal boosted by national radio shows and Internet forums. As the story circulated, those who heard the story injected themselves into the narrative. For example, Stewart Swerdlow published a book titled Montauk: The Alien Connection, which detailed his childhood abduction by government researchers and the brutal experiments that were conducted on him. Others traveled across the country to visit Preston Nichols for deprogramming sessions, hoping to recover their lost memories. These sessions involved a technique called "hand scanning," which some believe was dangerous and exploitative. In 2008, a creature washed ashore on the beach of Montauk. Gawker would refer to this creature as the Montauk Monster. Some thought the creature came from nearby Plum Island. It's origin and identification were unclear, and the body of the creature disappeared before renowned cryptozoologists could examine it. Again, a second creature, nearly identical, washed ashore in 2020. SOURCE Pandox MATERIAL FILE https://pastebin.com/jCzakQ61

In 1903, a strange event occurred in a large underground tunnel in Waterloo, Iowa. A bunch of elites were celebrating the construction of a "new" sewer system meant to solve the city's flooding problems. Around 450 guests enjoyed a fine dinner at this unusual banquet. But is there more to this story? Why would anyone host a massive banquet in a sewer? WHAT WAS THE DRY RUN SEWER BANQUET? “The then-newly built Dry Run sewer served as a banquet hall in October of 1903. In the underground chamber, 450 guests -- the women in high heels and richly embroidered gowns -- filed down a ready-made stairway in a block-long section of the sewer between Wellington and Randolph Streets. Many of the guests were representatives of State of Iowa or city officials who were holding a convention in Waterloo. The $100,000 sewer project provided an underground conduit between the marsh and the Cedar River.” (Waterloo Cedar Falls Courier) In 1903, a rather unusual event took place in Waterloo, Iowa. A banquet was held in a large underground tunnel to celebrate the construction of a new sewer system. This system was designed to address the city's flooding problems. With $3 tickets in hand, 450 guests arrived decked out in their best suits and evening gowns as music from the Beloit Orchestra sang against the sewer walls. Cigar smoke soon filled filled the air as Mayor Martin served as toastmaster at an event which drew worldwide coverage. In the aftermath, Waterloo booster Frank Pierce wrote in the paper, boasting of the feast: “no other municipality can hope to equal…no other city will be able to give us a banquet in a sewer.” The event, known as the Dry Run Sewer Banquet, was attended by around 450 guests. These guests, considered to be the elites of the time, enjoyed a fine dinner in this unconventional setting. The banquet was held in the deepest section of the new sewer, where workers hung lights and set up long tables and chairs. The menu for the banquet was quite elaborate, including dishes such as oysters, roast turkey, veal, lobster, and Waldorf salad. Guests arrived in their best suits and evening gowns, and the Beloit Orchestra provided music for the event. This banquet was not just a celebration of the new sewer system, but also a testament to the city's resilience and innovation in the face of recurring floods. The event drew worldwide coverage and is still remembered today for its uniqueness. SOURCE Mind Unveiled

Atomic Veterans Were Silenced for 50 Years. Now, They're Talking. No hype, no narration, no music, just the accounts of the people who were there. “It was completely daylight at midnight—brighter than the brightest day you ever saw,” says another. Many tales of the atomic bomb, however, weren’t told at all. In addition to the hundreds of thousands of Japanese civilians who died in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, an estimated 400,000 American soldiers and sailors also observed nuclear explosions—many just a mile or two from ground zero. From 1946 to 1992, the U.S. government conducted more than 1,000 nuclear tests, during which unwitting troops were exposed to vast amounts of ionizing radiation. For protection, they wore utility jackets, helmets, and gas masks. They were told to cover their face with their arms. After the tests, the soldiers, many of whom were traumatized, were sworn to an oath of secrecy. Breaking it even to talk among themselves was considered treason, punishable by a $10,000 fine and 10 or more years in prison. In Knibbe’s film, some of these atomic veterans break the forced silence to tell their story for the very first time. They describe how the blast knocked them to the ground; how they could see the bones and blood vessels in their hands, like viewing an X-ray. They recount the terror in their officers’ faces and the tears and panic that followed the blasts. They talk about how they’ve been haunted—by nightmares, PTSD, and various health afflictions, including cancer. Knibbe’s spare filmmaking approach foregrounds details and emotion. There’s no need for archival footage; the story is writ large in the faces of the veterans, who struggle to find the right words to express the horror of what they saw during the tests and what they struggled with in the decades after. Knibbe told me that he has long been fascinated with the self-destructive tendencies of mankind. When he found declassified U.S. civil-defense footage of soldiers maneuvering in the glare of the mushroom cloud of an atomic bomb, he was “absolutely amazed and wanted to learn more about their stories.” His efforts to dig deeper were curtailed by the fact that most of the information about the nuclear tests was classified—including reports on the illnesses the veterans suffered and the radioactive pollution that was released into the environment around the test sites. “I was baffled by the lack of recorded testimonies available,” he said. Knibbe began trying to contact veterans through the National Association of Atomic Veterans, eventually traveling across the United States to meet them and hear their stories. He was stunned and saddened by what he learned. “They were confronted by such an incredible destructive power that they were immediately shocked into an existential crisis,” Knibbe said. “It was like they saw the creation of the universe. They were confronted with an enemy they could never defeat. It was something really difficult for them to describe.” “For 10 years now, I’ve been trying to get compensation, but the government does not want to admit that anybody was harmed by any radiation,” says one man in the film. Knibbe said he has spoken with more than 100 U.S. atomic veterans, all of whom share similar stories of the government’s intransigence. One of the few studies conducted on atomic veterans found that the 3,000 participants in a 1957 nuclear test suffered from leukemia at more than twice the rate of their peers. Bill Clinton relieved the veterans’ oath of secrecy in 1994, but the announcement was eclipsed by news from the O. J. Simpson trial. “Most of the atomic veterans didn’t even know the oath of secrecy was lifted,” Knibbe said. Most went on to believe that they were not allowed to talk about their experiences, even to seek help for their health problems. Many took the secret to their grave.

Virtually every foundation of our modern reality came out of that century, while at the same time it was perhaps the most politically and socially unstable 100 years in recent past. How was it all done? Who was the workforce behind the relentless developments, and how were they trained and sustained in those times? As you will see, it only takes a few breaks in the narrative for endless questions to be brought forth. From a hidden history perspective, this is the century that I believe contains many of the answers we seek, and the evidence can be found anywhere one looks. UNDERGROUND CITIES These underground areas are but a very small portion of what was in America before we think America was founded. Very interesting. • Eureka Springs, Arkansas: Underneath 'Mud Street' is another city which the leaders of the town try to sell as 'tunnels'. There are historic photos showing the mud flood in the city. •Vault, Cleveland, Ohio: These former bank vaults of Cleveland's elite have been transformed into private cocktail rooms and prohibition-era bars. • Bube's Brewery, Pennsylvania: Bube's Brewery is a historic 19th-century brewery, restaurant and entertainment complex. At one time, there were several entrances below to caves and they have all been closed off. • Kansas City’s Subtropolis Business Complex: Limestone deposits dating back 270 million years have been carved into what’s claimed to be the world’s largest underground business complex. Call it what you want but it's bigger than Kansas City, complete with roads. • Hidden Catacombs of Indianapolis: Underneath the City Market are the catacombs with dirt floors and multiple columns. • Seattle Underground Abandoned City: The narrative: The 1889 Seattle fire wiped out the city with the new city rising from the old as essentially a second floor elevated by roughly 22 feet. •Los Angeles Prohibition Tunnels: The 1920s and prohibition inspired a great deal of creative thinking about how to make, sell, and consume adult beverages. The narrative: all built with pick axes. •Chattanooga, Tennessee: a city underground, complete with columns. The narrative: there was a 'flood' and the city was covered in 'mud' so everyone decided to replicate everything on 'mud level'. •New York City: Originally a Dutch town called New Amsterdam, it was later taken over by the English and renamed New York. •Detroit: Founded by French colonists in 1701, it was later taken over by the British and then incorporated into the United States. Talk about underground! •The Grand Canyon: A megalopolis, found under the canyon. Discovered by archaeologist Dr. G.E. Kincaid. He then made the fatal mistake of notifying the Smithsonian.

There are many maps that clearly show the name 'Chilaga' in the exact same location as where Chicago would be 250 years prior. In the 1890s, a Newspapers Article from the Chicago Tribune covered this topic but only 6 days later a response was issued in order to cover up this subject. Is it because they don't want people to know that Chicago is actually much older and was established by the Tartarians and NOT by the European colonist in the 1800s. When we connect this with the Chicago World Fair things start to make a lot more sense... The intriguing connection between the mythical city of Chilaga and the modern city of Chicago has been a subject of fascination for historians and enthusiasts alike. The name Chilaga has been found on ancient maps, appearing in the exact location where Chicago stands today. This discovery has led to speculation that Chicago could be the ancient, mythical Chilaga, a place that appeared on maps more than 200 years before the city was founded. A map published in Venice in 1605, long before the Great Lakes showed up in accounts of North America, hints at the possibility of Chilaga's existence. The map was a re-issue of a book, "Le Relationi Universali," written in 1591 by priest and geographer Giovanni Botero. In the heart of the continent, past the end of the St. Lawrence River, appears the name Chilaga. The word is closer to the current spelling of Chicago than are many of the variations of the Indian word that appeared on maps after the area had been explored and charted. However, the connection between Chilaga and Chicago remains a topic of debate among experts. Some suggest that the name Chilaga could have been an Indian word for this area in the 1500s or even earlier. Others propose that Botero's Chilaga could be a mere corruption of Hochilaga, a name that appears on a 1556 map, and moved farther west. Despite these theories, the mystery of Chilaga and its potential link to Chicago continues to captivate the imagination, adding a layer of mythical allure to the history of this vibrant city.

1. Origins and Purpose: The concept of dangling baby cages emerged in the 1920s, but its roots trace back to Dr. Luther Emmett Holt's 1884 book, The Care and Feeding of Children. Dr. Holt advocated for babies to be "aired" regularly. The belief was that fresh air was essential for health and growth, improving appetite and digestion. To achieve this, inventive parents began attaching infant-sized cages to their apartment windows. These wire contraptions allowed babies to experience outdoor air even in densely populated urban areas where outdoor space was scarce. 2. Eleanor Roosevelt's Baby Cage: Among those who embraced this unconventional practice was Eleanor Roosevelt, who candidly admitted her lack of expertise in handling babies. After the birth of her daughter Anna, Eleanor acquired a chicken-wire cage specifically designed for infants. She hung it outside her New York City apartment window, placing Anna inside for naps. However, a concerned neighbor threatened to report her to authorities, highlighting the controversial nature of this trend. 3. Popularity and Decline: The first commercial patent for a baby cage was filed in 1922 by Emma Read of Spokane, Washington. These cages gained popularity in London during the 1930s, especially among apartment dwellers without access to backyards. While some believed the cages provided fresh air and toughened babies against minor illnesses, safety concerns eventually led to their decline. By the second half of the 20th century, growing awareness of child safety prompted a shift away from this peculiar practice. Nonetheless, the baby cage remains a curious relic of an era when unconventional parenting solutions captured imaginations and raised eyebrows. SOURCE NeEd InPuT
