Timeline: Beyond The Biblical Silo
Updated: Feb 22
"I climbed across the mountaintops, Swam all across the ocean blue.
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules, but baby, I broke them all for you.
But these stories don't mean anything when you've got no one to tell them to,
It's true...I was made for you."
--- The Story, Brandi Carlisle
A silo refers to a vertical storage system, usually for grain or such. In a silo, grain, for instance, is stored vertically in its own space, without being mixed or combined with other grains. So, several silos together might contain different kinds of grain, each kept separate in its own container. And that's the point.
In business, when information and the sharing of it becomes restricted, or controlled, within a particular system, we refer to that system as a "silo". In this context, the connotation is negative. For example, social media apps are often referred to as silos. Information is shared on Twitter, and people on Twitter read it. They then process their response to the information with other users on Twitter. Sometimes, outrage occurs...usually only on Twitter. It is Twitter users thinking that the whole world operates and thinks just like Twitter. But it doesn't...it's just that Twitter feels like the entire universe when you are engaged with it because the entire experience remains within the Twitter world. The disconnect between the Twitter-world and the Real-world is the silo effect.
Religion is the ultimate silo'd system. It has its own rules and language and set of behaviors, and it is vehemently opposed to sharing or receiving input from other cultures. Regardless of the religion in question, all of them are silo'd systems. They must be in order to function. The problem is that inner focus isn't an end unto itself. Religion becomes narcissistic. Always. And the thing about silos, in general? If I knocked it on its side and buried one end of it, you'd call it a cave. And you wouldn't be wrong...a Cave, in the Platorian sense, with its flickering shadows of truth.
To get beyond the silo'd view and gain perspective, I'd like to share a timeline of early human civilization and how some of the stories I deal with here interact and bump up against other things happening in the world at that time.
In a simple exercise of timeline matchup- as accurate as that can be- I'd like to see what else was going on in their lives at the time- both gods AND man. I'd also like to see how that informs our perspective. So, let's take the characters one at a time, left to right in black ink: beginning, of course, with Adamu and Eve.
Adamu & Eve- 4000 B.C. During this time in Sumeria, civilization was beginning to blossom and flourish. Cities such as Erridu, long established, began to thrive in progress. Innovations such as the Potter's Wheel and irrigation canals appear, as does a priestly class. Interestingly, this class typically managed economics and resources. Clay tokens were devised as a means of record-keeping and Cuneiform begins to emerge as a style of writing and recording information and experience. Adamu and his sons Cain and Seth lived their lives and spent hundreds of years together on Earth at the same time as Noah and Enoch.
Enoch- 3382-3218 B.C. This was a pivotal time in Sumerian culture. We see Cuneiform coming into its own. We see the Potter's Wheel converted for use as a wheel for transport. Real cities such as Uruk expand even more. The Bronze Age was beginning and brought all sorts of advancements in tools, weapons, and more. The Sword was invented. The priestly class began to swell and expand and we see the introduction of Priest-Kings, or god-kings, in Egypt and Mesopotamia and Persia.
Gilgamesh and Noah- 2700-2500 B.C. This is where it kind of gets shaken up a bit. Language continues to develop- Cuneiform begins to develop into script. Wheeled chariots and wheels for transport are seen widespread during this time. Complex polytheism arose within powerful city-states with specific cities clinging to specific deities. Nippur's association with Enlil is an example, as is Erridu's long-held fascination with Enki. Innana's worship within Uruk is another. This era also saw the development of better weapons and fighting systems such as the phalanx. The powerful King Gilgamesh reigned during this time. Flood myths also begin popping up in this part of the world. There is wide agreement that a flood of some kind occurred. Noah's flood in the Bible was likely a regional flood cataclysm. The same flood is referenced in stories about Utnapishtum. It is likely that the Noah story is somewhat conflated with the Gilgamesh story and that BOTH stories, supported by ample other works, such as the Erridu Genesis, describe actual events that occurred somewhat earlier in history. Maybe closer to 3000 B.C. if not before. Either way, writing had developed to a point where humanity could record its own collective memories in detail. Creation and flood myths are some of our earliest attempts. Our earliest recorded traumas. Taken as a cross-section of the timeline, we can loosely infer that the events of 3000-2500 fractured Sumerian civilization. I say that because Akkadian Civilization began to rise from the chaos of Sumeria. During this time, Stonehenge was built, as was the Pyramid of Giza. In modern-day Nevada, the Piute Indians defeated the giants of Lovelock Cave.
Melchizedek, Abraham, Job- 2200-1500 B.C. The Gods of Man were most active in Christianity's Bible during this time period. The Abraham period of the Old Testament begins with an event at the Tower of Babel in 2200 B.C. Language, having been on track to evolve, became scattered and confused. Humanity was moving too fast. We got ahead of ourselves. Aggressive flash, shallow spirit. Soon after, the gods limited the lifespan of mankind. More genetic engineering. Slow down, Adamu... The priest Melchizidek openly channeled Enki and Enlil during this time. Warrior kings and tribal leaders such as Abraham knew of him and gave him wide berth and respect. Shorter lives and confused language and chaotic culture all simmered together as Sumeria splintered into Akkadia and then re-surged and at last dissolved into Babylonia under the rise of Hammurabi. Abraham's son Isaac was born in 1851. Hammurabi's Law was issued in 1792. Enlil and Enki destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah in 1650. Shortly after, Erridu was abandoned permanantly by the Annunaki. Sumerian texts also suggest that Enki took a human wife during this era. Possibly had offspring. That does place Enki's instruction that Abraham sacrifice his own son in a curious new light. With all of the activity in Mesopatamia during this time, the efforts of Enlil and Enki and their fierce, terrifying interrogation and dressing down of Job underlies their work with humanity. At the twilight of this era, near the city of Peniel in what is now the nation of Jordan, Enki, under cover of darkness, physically attacked Jacob- mano a mano, hand-to-hand- and wrestled with him on the ground. Jacob understood Turtle Position, received the weight, pushed an advantage, and won leverage. Jacob almost fucking won. To overcome him, Enki, who also understood Turtle Position, dislocated Jacob's hip and then named him Israel, which means "he who struggles with God". Thus, the Hebrews became the Israelites. The beginning of this era was the fallout of the flood. By the end of this era, the gods were ready to make their move on Planet Earth. Coincidentally, it was near the end of this time that the Annunaki reportedly gave up permanant residence at all previously occupied stations and locations. Elsewhere on Earth in Peru, Machu Picchu was built.
Moses- 1391-1271 B.C. Late Bronze Age collapse and the rise of the Ottoman Empire set the stage. It was during this time that the Middle East was permanently established as a choke point for Earthly commerce. Planet-wide free trade in and with the Middle East would never again be the same. This also, in effect, began to isolate Europe from Asia. Geopolitics writ large. Oh yeah, and there's Moses. In the midst of the planetary prep-work, Enlil and Enki took center stage and waged war on Earth. They took an entire class of workers from Ramses II, under the leadership of a man who grew up in Ramses II's palace. Like...just...took them. Led them away. "Come with me now if you want to live," kinda thing. As Enlil dared and threatened and challenged and provoked Pharoah to fight, Enki hardened his heart and spurred his pride and indignation, eliminating "flight" as an option. The brothers destroyed the Egyptian Army as Enki the Sumerian God of Water collapsed the literal Red Sea upon waves of Egyptian soldiers, chariots, blood, and treasure. Gone. The Egyptian people, crushed, brutalized. The brothers left Ramses II himself to ponder his flaccid weakness until ripe old age, where it is rumored he died of a dental abscess. The brothers led this working class people, the Hebrews, through a desert, fed them with Manna from the Heavens, and established a nation that possessed a cosmic weapon of mass destruction. This time period also sees the evolution of the Palestinian people, as well as the roots of the conflict between Palestine and Israel. When Moses' work was done, the Annunaki had a powerful presence on Earth. In Greece during this time, the period known as the Greek Dark Ages begins as the city of Troy is sacked by the Greeks. In modern-day Arizona, the Hopi Indians made petroglyphs depicting alien beings and spacecraft. They told stories of their regular visits.
David- 1035-970 B.C. In 1087 B.C., Babylon was destroyed by the Assyrians. Homer wrote his Illiad and Odyssey around this time. Seek and Overcome, Adamu... The Kingdom of Israel was established in 1010. David conquered Jerusalem and made it the capital of Israel. Solomon established the first Temple at Jerusalem in 1004 B.C. This era in human thinking is unique. Reason and Thought and Reflection were held up as ideal human traits. In Greece, this era was the roots of the Classical Antiquity Period. Greek city states such as Sparta and Athens reached their zeniths. In the Persian Empire, the countless tribes and nomadic peoples were settling in and around what is now Iran. King Leonidas and his brave 200 fought Xerxes at the narrows of Thermopylae. While David was seducing Bathsheba, Plato was teaching in Athens (loosely). What we know today as more or less today's World Order has its functional genesis in this time period, and the Annunaki placed themselves, their Holy of Holies, and their Handmaiden of the Apocolypse (Ark of the Covenant) in the very center of it.
Elijah- 875 B.C. This visit to Earth can't count as an actual, physical interaction on Earth because they didn't technically land this time. The Annunaki DID visit Earth during this time of severe decline in the Babylonion empire and intellectual darkness in Greece...they just didn't set foot physically on the planet in THIS narrative. As it happened, they were in the neighborhood and Elohim wanted to pick up his friend Elijah. And did so with the sound system thumping and ground effects on strobe. Rattled windows. Made noise, cops were called. It made an impression. Around the same time period, there began popping up myths or lore about an 8-spoked wheel, or saucer. It appeared on chariots in the Near East and in religious and philosophical writings in the Far East. The Dharma Wheel. The Annunaki are actively evolving their creation, and creation is responding. Progressive tense. It is evidence of a plan in progress, Gannt chart and all. By the way, in the days of Elijah, the chariot was one of the most advanced weapon systems of the time. Akin to today's B-2 bomber (not the very newest, but the newest everyone talks about), obviously on a smaller scale. A chariot of fire in that time, unthinkable. Either way, his early, dramatic, fiery departure was a traumatic event for the people of the time. I can imagine that learning this sort of thing was possible would be an extraordinary experience. It certainly set the precedent for what came next.
Jesus of Nazareth- 31 B.C. - 33 A.D. Parthia defeats Marc Antony and Cleopatra at the Battle of Actium. Chinese silk is first seen in Rome. 10-15% of the library at Alexandria burns. Haley's Comet appears for the first time. Buddhism spreads from India to Asia. Glassblowing develops as a marketable skill. In Jerusalem, a so-called Son of God was brutally executed for dubious legal reasons. This event literally splits the planetary calendar in two. BC becomes AD. Tick, tock...
My over-arching point is that context matters- from conversational to geopolitical. Look closely at the timeline...all of these things happened together in the same part of the world. They cannot be unrelated. It is unreasonable to believe that world events of the time were unconnected, unrelated, and uninvolved with each other. That what moved one people didn't move another. Hogwash. The Earth was an ecosystem then as it is now. As on a climatary level today, so too were we then all connected. Climate isn't the only connecting fiber. It's a small world. Always has been, always will be. Just as we today filter theology through the lense of our geopolitics, so, too, did ancient people, albeit on a smaller scale. Some beings WERE able to maintain planetary perspective. We know this because we see evidence of their architecture all over the world.
The loss of the data from the Library at Alexandria is a slippery, sliding tragedy that we dont really understand. This library, wherein was stored so much history of us- the most intimate histories of mankind and its gods. Human history that went back possibly tens of thousands of years BEFORE what we now know as our Genesis. Scrolls, tablets, stones, symbols, etc. So much intelligence and purpose- lost. No one knows what or how much was lost. It ccurred over numerous events from 48 A.D. to 391 A.D. In other words, the time period near the end of Jesus' ministry, close to his death, and a butterfly-kiss from his resurrection, ALSO saw the barely-hyped destruction and erasure from collective memory of countless volumes concerning our gods and our own past. What is missing in writing is what haunts us in spirit still: who the hell are we and why are we here? I suspect the losses were massive and intentional, as though leafy branches were swept over sand to remove evidence of tracks made.
It is up to us now. We have done what we have done with the information we were given as a species. And we continue to do so. Paths have been set. Modeled. Demonstrated. The Way is clear.
Wake up, Adamu...
Footnote: This work is an impossible effort. There are numerous chronologies that one can work from to calculate and estimate ages, dates, and other points in time. No one really knows for sure. At best, we can take a general timeline view and then fill in with inference and imagination. As a tracker scans the intimate details of the landscape for hints or traces of prey, so we can see hints, shadows, and reflections of the work of the Gods in the business of Man. There is a story there, and it's ours.
The second footnote I will add is that, when I look at these and countless other points on a timeline and observe how those narratives interact all over the planet, it is 100% apparent to me that Planet Earth was long occupied, settled, and developed by extra terrestrials. Early humanity interacted with them and called them gods. All of our earliest written works describe them. Our relgions seek to soothe our greatest terrors with our highest hopes. If that is true, then the weight of the next question looms large without even being asked: "Now what?"
Our gods are aliens. Jesus is real. Heaven is now.
