Cover Up: The Grand Canyon Conspiracy
Cover Up: The Grand Canyon Conspiracy
The federal government currently owns about 640 million acres of land in the United States. Of course, this does not include the 129 presumed DUMBs that are said to span hundreds of thousands of miles. The feat of keeping every secret nook and cranny of mountains and deserts and plains from the public is insurmountable.
In April 5th, 1909, an incredible story surfaced about a massive underground citadel that is hidden in the vast wilderness of federally owned land that surrounds the Grand Canyon in Arizona. This is a story that most conspiracy theorists have seen surface again and again, so I will not attempt to reinvent the wheel, per say. But I found some rather compelling claims from the account which are worth looking over.
“The archaeologist of the Smithsonian Institute…have made discoveries which almost conclusively prove that the race which inhabited this mysterious cavern, hewn in solid rock by human hands, was of Oriental origin or possibly from Egypt tracing back to Ramses.”
“In the opposite corner of this cross-hall were found tools of all descriptions, made of copper. This people undoubtedly knew the lost art of hardening this metal, which has been sought by chemists for centuries without result.”
“On all the urns, on the walls over the doorways and tablets of stone which were found by the image are mysterious hieroglyphics, the key to which the Smithsonian Institution hopes yet to discover.”
How would ancient Egyptian artifacts and “mysterious hieroglyphics” end up in a massive cave system in the Arizona desert? What about the copper tools which were hardened? What ancient tools would have been able to surpass today’s technology? And why would all records of this ancient find been denied by the Smithsonian? Why have no records of researchers Kinkaid and Jordan been found? What are they hiding? Is this another government cover up? What or who really lived in these caves?
“The perfect ventilation of the cavern, the steady drought that blows through, indicates that it has another outlet to the surface.”
“Several hundred rooms have been discovered, reached by passageways running from the main passage, one of them having been explored for 854 feet and another 634 feet.”
This cavern was not only well-planned and executed, but it must have been constructed in a way that was far beyond the technology possessed even at the turn of the 20th century when the structure was found. Let’s add this to a long list of ancient archaeological finds which are mysteriously more advanced than they should be.
“It is located on government land and no visitor will be allowed there under penalty of trespass. The scientists wish to work unmolested, without fear of the archaeological discoveries being disturbed by curio or relic hunters.”
Located on government land. Big surprise, right? The American public owns this land, yet we are denied access to its mysteries. Of course, science is used once again as a front to explain away the shroud of mystery that surrounds this site. And for those that claim this is just another tale in a long line of conspiracy theories, I find it very hard to believe that the Arizona Gazette would have run this fascinating story as front-page news without verifying the article. More than a hundred years later, we are left with no paper trail and the branding of “conspiracy.”
