Early in the 16thcentury, a brilliant Turkish admiral, Piri Reis, obtained some of the charts that Columbus had used to cross the Atlantic to the Americas. After examining Columbus’ maps, Piri Reis noted that they were precise. The admiral had an impressive collection of copies of ancient charts, some of them thousands of years old. Being a Turk, he could have had access to documents still held in secret in some Turkish nation. Each time that he dropped anchor in whatever port, he sent his sailors out to find people who owned ancient maps and were willing to sell them. Using the other ancient copies in his collection, the admiral made his own world map in 1513. In 1929, some historians rummaging around in the harem section of the Topkapi Palace, in Istanbul, Turkey, found this old chart buried under a pile of trash.
Upon examining the Piri Reis map, the historians were astonished to note that it presented a detailed and precise outline of the east coast of Southern Mexico, Central America, and South America, as well as the western coast of Africa. But this part didn’t surprise them because Columbus’ charts had been used to draw this map. What shocked them was a huge island off the coast of what is now Vera Cruz and an exact outline of the mountains, valleys, islands, rivers, and plains of the North Pole and Antarctica before those polar regions became buried under the thousands of feet of ice covering them today. Supposedly, no one knew that Antarctica ever existed until 1818. Scientists have always maintained that the Antarctic ice cap is millions of years old. They say that this ice cap has existed for tens of thousands of years. As for that large island, Plato said that one just like it had sunk under the sea in about 9,000 BC! The Piri Reis map shows Greenland as two islands. A French expedition made seismic soundings proving that ice cov-ers the space between the two Greenland islands. Army enginecov-ers and the U.S.
Navy Hydrographic bureau, as well as other scientific organizations, have proven beyond doubt that the Piri Reis map shows the landforms under the Northern
and Southern ice caps exactly as they existed before becoming covered by snow and ice. I invite my readers to examine this anomaly themselves on the many websites discussing the map and those ancient polar landforms.
What is even more unbelievable and shocking is that all the scientists and experts who have examined this map are in total agreement that these polar land forms could have been charted only from extremely high altitudes above the earth! Some ancient nation, as early as 12,000 years ago, had airships. A number of people would like for us to think that the pilots of those airships were really lit-tle green men from Mars. I’m far from ready to accept such declarations without confirming evidence. However, documents like the Piri Reis map point directly toward the only ancient nations that had mechanized land and air vehicles: Tur-key and India.
Recent underwater archeological explorations prove that large portions of India were civilized thousands of years before Egypt and Sumeria became a gleam in the eyes of their Turkish and Hindu forefathers. Also, Hindu myths talk fre-quently of their ancient land and air vehicles, atomic weapons, and the like. Most of us know about the Biblical story of Ezekiel being saved by an ancient airship.
That incident took place in a Turkish nation: Afghanistan.
Piri Reis himself stated that he had copied much of the information on his map from maps dating back to Alexander the Great:
I have used twenty maps and mappae mundi dating from the time of Alex-ander the Great showing the islands inhabited by men. The Arab people refer to these maps as caferiye. As well as eight caferiye of that kind, I have made use of one Arabic map of India and four modern Portuguese maps, some of which delineate the lands of Sind, India and China according to geometrical meth-ods, and one map drawn by Columbus in the western lands. By reducing all these maps to one scale this form was arrived at. So that the present map is as correct and reliable for the seven seas as the map of our countries is considered correct and reliable by seamen.
Piri Reis’ map is not the only map showing the polar landforms and other landforms of the world as it appeared more than ten thousand years before the birth of Christ. Three other maps, made at approximately the same time that Admiral Reis made his, those of Oroneus Fineaus, Mercator, and Phillipe Buache, show pre-glacial Antartica before it was supposedly “discovered” in 1818. These maps were also included information from copies of ancient charts made thousands of years ago. Estimates are made that the original charts were made as far back as 12,000 to 14,000 BC.
What Strange Mystery Unites the Turkish Nations, India, Catholicism, and Mexico?

Wanting to get some hard scientific evidence that the Piri Reis map shows the pre-glacial Antarctica correctly, Professor Charles H. Hapgood, of Keene College, NH, sent pictures and details of the map to the Reconnaissance Technical squad-ron (SAC) of the United States Air Force Westover Air Force base, in Massachu-setts. He asked the officials there to give him their opinion of the Reis map. The following was their reply:
Your request of evaluation of certain unusual features of the Piri Reis map of 1513 by this organization has been reviewed. The claim that the lower part of the map portrays the Princess Martha Coast of Queen Maud Land, Antarctic, and the Palmer Peninsular, is reasonable. We find that this is the most logical and in all probability the correct interpretation of the map. The geographical detail shown in the lower part of the map agrees very remarkably with the results of the seismic profile made across the top of the ice-cap by the Swedish-British Antarctic Expedition of 1949.
This indicates the coastline had been mapped before it was covered by the ice-cap.
The ice-cap in this region is now about a mile thick. We have no idea how the data on this map can be reconciled with the supposed state of geographical knowledge in 1513.

Note: The worldwide web has changed the way we corroborate the statements of writers and researchers. Before the advent of PCs, authors had to provide their readers with abundant references for them to search for in libraries. This is no longer neces-sary. To corroborate what I have written thus far, you’ll find innumerable references to the Piri Reis map on many websites. You should also read all you can find under the headings of Cattigara and Trikuta. I will discuss this further in Chapter 14, with some astonishing maps.
If, as I say, The Aryan Krishtayas and Ramanakas had flying ships and other technological marvels, why can’t archeologists find any of them? Why can’t some proofs be brought to light? I am confident that this will happen someday. Surely, when archeologists start penetrating the ancient ruins at the bottom of the sea near the coast of Gujarat, India, they will confirm many statements made in Hindu myths, which right now seem bizarre and unbelievable to most of us.
A famous Hindu historian, P. N. Oak, author of World Vedic Heritage, claims that millions of thousands-of-years-old documents, an estimated 90 million, are rotting away in a depository in Poona, India, waiting for the Turks and Indians to quit bragging about having an illustrious past—and prove it. I know they can do it. A Turkish gentleman, who has read my books and articles, tells me that the archives of the Chaldean Christian community in Turkey contain thousands of ancient documents, many of which were saved from the fire that burned down the library of Alexandria.
Perhaps what I have just stated will clear up the mysteries of Mexico’s Teoti-huacan, The Peruvian ruins of Tihuanaco, and those of Karal, Peru, for all three of these ruins have Turkish names. Teotihuacan derives from Teo (God) plus Tiwa (one of the names of the Turkish republic of Tannu, Tewa, or Tiwa) plus Khan (Turkish name for king; kingdom.) The Tannu or Tiwa/Tewa people were so highly advanced that in India, the word came to be Deva (Demi-God). Tihua-naco is estimated to be around 20,000 years old. Its name may derive from Tiwa plus Naga. The old pyramids and ruins at Karal are older than the pyramids of Egypt. Karal derives from the Turkish word Kral, meaning “Royal Domain.”
Taking into consideration all that I have said so far about the ancient Turks, I know that my Christian, Jewish, Turkic, Buddhist, Shinto, Confucian, Taoist and Hindu readers may be wanting to ask me:
If what you say about the Turks is true, what happened to make them sink into ignominy? Why are the Turkish republics the most mysterious and unknown countries in today’s modern world? Why do they no longer demon-strate the traits that their Kedar Khand, Nephylim, Aryan, or Krishtaya ances-tors once had in such abundance, that they were even able to live up to one thousand years, bilocate to any part of the universe at the speed of light, and heal themselves with certain elements contained in sunlight?
I must apologize for not being able to answer such important questions. As a Christian. I have never abandoned entirely the science of the Cross and the Holy Trinity that the Turks gave to your forefathers and mine. Perhaps you should ask those who, at sword point, ripped the Aryan God Tengri and his son Keder/Keser out of the hearts, minds, and souls of the Turks. They do have the answer!
