    I live in New Mexico, in the U.S.A. Spirals are found all over here in the deserts and mountains. They are sometimes pecked into rock or painted in cave walls and ceilings.

    I'm pretty sure Aboriginals from central or northern Australia have used, and do use spiral rock art to indicate water sources nearby.

    If you visit Newgrange, you walk across the bridge over the River Boyne at Brú na Bóinne Visitor Centre. Look down into the river. You will see spirals in the water just like on the wall of the tomb.

    Here in the southwest U.S., I have hiked over hundreds of thousands of acres of ranchlands over two decades to notice a pattern in the spirals. I have seen a great number of them having only two to five wraps, and would find a small amount of physical evidence of occupation. The more spirals, the more evidence. Usually along with the spirals would be images of goats or deer, wavy lines indicating water, even buffalo. It would seem logical then, that since the people were nomadic, the lines were left as records. Each complete revolution indicating the season spent there, or a complete cycle of year.
    Areas with only two or three wraps would have little in flint knappings and little else to show as evidence of habitation. While spirals with ten and more would have evidence scattered over a much larger area, and contain mono's and matate' (grinding stones), many more petroglyphs, worked points, and often extra construction using rock.
    In short then, the spirals indicated the abundance of the area found, and it's ability to provide resources.

      It’s interesting what you observe…an alternative view is that the symbols do not have a specific meaning but rather they are compelled towards that symbol. We are attempting to interpret these symbols from our own unique and time oriented way of thinking. Spirals are hypnotic.Creating spirals are hypnotic as well. As im sure you know, fire is hypnotic.

      Having not spent the time looking up the 100 potential reasons mentioned as I don’t have access to a library right now, and building on your very interesting time vs length hypothesis, the following things occurred to me if it was related to time spent in an area that might be testable. Potentially it could have been either be 1. A plan of how long they were planning to stay - ie created at the start - if this were true you would expect to see some indication of current time as marks round the edges, im assuming there is no evidence of this? And also I assume a start and end alignment mainly indicating full years. Having a spiral in advance is a good way of communicating a plan. I imagine in this scenario the current time would be known through regular gatherings where you did the planning and pointing at the spiral to tell everyone what was going on and where they were in time as a common frame of reference. But also this could be just known to everyone in some other way? Or 2. it could have been created on exit for others to know and possibly benefit from understanding - evidence of this would be any sites with no spirals but an obvious place for one in the surrounding art - meaning they had to exit straightaway presumably under attack, or 3. it could have been made constantly - which would suggest there would be few small part spirals somewhere.
      Has anyone compiled the spiral data of total spiral angle by site and done this analysis?

      I've been fascinated by spirals for years (live in Arizona) and have talked to some archeologist ( I think the best answer is) - it could mean deferent things to deferent people. One was a direction of travel, another was direction to water... and of course other meanings also.
      A friend showed me a large spiral on a flat rock and at the end the (spiral) line keep going making a map ( with another small spiral at that end) of the dry river bed. Down the drainage map... at the end was a spring ( year round water)

    @yensid4294 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I have heard/read that spirals could be symbolic representations for water (holes) & that circles with a dot in the center may have represented the sun. I guess if certain larger rock art areas were a kind of abstract map of either the landscape or the night sky it would be difficult to determine after so much time. But it's an interesting idea.

    In Finland and surrounding region there are these spirals called 'Giants' Gardens', (video: "Ylikorvenkankaan jatulintarha, Miehikkälä", usually near water or ancient water areas. They are thought to be there for a rite to secure safe voyage for a person on water or by land. Spiral as a symbol would therefor be a good luck symbol for a journey or otherwise. Perhaps a road sign, but more likely a spiritual symbol on a gravestone or some other religious place; a religious symbol the same way as E.g. cross is in Christianity. Sometimes there are cup stones along side with the spiral symbols, which would support the religious theory. Holy Grail being a form of cup stone also.

  • @lifeschool
    @lifeschool ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I think many of the comments here are in the right area. As the circles were made outside on rocks, mostly pointing up towards the sky, I would say the ancients figured out we all come from the Sun (or God, the womb etc), and that we all leave the sun and return by the same way upon death. The spiral may be perhaps the path of life itself, or perhaps just an image of the Sun, like the South American cultures drew something that looked like a swastika. As this was made throughout Europe, I'd say this was some kind of Celtic Pagan shamanic trance ritual carving.

    • @shrinkU

      The spiral carvings in Newgrange/Boyne Valley were made about 3,500 BC and that predates the Celtic migration (Beaker Culture) by about 2000 years.

    The ancient circles are simply to inform wanderers or anybody that within that distance that human lived around. If it's one, depending on size, it shows that it maybe a small group, if the circles were scattered, it means that there are numbers of settlement as stated on the rock face. These people doesn't have alphabets, they speak in signs and signals.

    These rock shelters or caves were a surviving place during the most dramatic event in the history of mankind. That is the crossing of planet 9 that occurs every few thousand years. That planet 9 is orbiting our sun in an eccentric orbit so it crosses close to our sun at a very high speed. Due to the gravitational force it causes a huge tidal wave, storms, rains, flooding and earthquakes in unprecedented amounts and a bombardment of fiery meteors. Only people who are in a shelter with a very strong roof, a mountain above your head will do, survive this disaster. Sometimes they may have left signs for the next generation. A spiral is the first sign of the approaching planet. A square cross is a closer planet and hands up means that they are frightened. That planet is sometimes presented as an agressive animal with big teeth. The event occurs in seven days. Another result of the cycle of disasters is a cycle of civilizations. They emerge and vanish according to a fixed schedule. This is ancient knowledge that is available for everyone who is searching for it but that is forgotten, neglected or denied by all scientists. To learn much more about planet 9, the recurring flood cycle and its timeline, the rebirth of civilizations and ancient high technology, read the e-book: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". This book answers many of your questions about ancient history. It can be read on any computer, tablet or smartphone. Search: planet 9 roest

    Any incision or 'writing' is a transmission, it's meant for the reader. Of course, this is a complex language, and of course, it served a purpose. The purpose being existential matters for the surival of the humankind.

    In Ozzy Aboriginal spirals are a gathering/camping places , but it's original meaning.....Owl eyes.....Desolation. Today they are still everywhere with-in symbols n carvings etc. , still meaning the same thing.
    ......Desolation. imho.

    Yes it's possible. Myself and others read handheld stones. You'd be surprised what they tell us. My profile pic is an elephant. They made humans and animals on rocks and I decifer them on my channel. Not self promoting, but informing the masses. Come over if you want to, stay where you are if you'd like.

    The spiral most likely represents the golden ratio which is 1.618. Its known as Phi and .618 is phi.
    That's why the US was founded in

  • @apaul9776
    @apaul9776 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This is a disappointingly lightweight video which does not address the issue of deciphering, despite the clickbait title. Calling these markings 'rock art' is unhelpful and misleading. There is no obvious reason to classify the markings as art, unlike the much earlier ones in Lascaux, etc.

      The first thing that came to mind when I read this comment was, "Tell me you didn't pay attention to the video without telling me you weren't paying attention..."
      They mention a few times that we will probably never know for sure what the rock carvings were for. But we have a few ideas based on what little info that can be gleaned from the surrounding landscape. Astronomical charts, message boards and road maps are all ideas that have been floated over the years. Or it may be something that we haven't come close to guessing.
      Regardless, they went over the possibilities of what the art could be before taking the time to demonstrate a few ways the art could have been made. And this does fall under the definition of art. Using human creativity they sculpted the rock into shapes and designs that can be appreciated by the people around them. The intricate shapes and repeating patterns are not found in nature and as such are highly likely to be decorative as well as practical. Or in other words that map on the wall probably has some flare added around the edges.
      Now, I could be completely wrong in my analysis and I'm okay with that. The only way we'll ever figure this stuff out, if it's even possible, is to discuss the the many theories laid forth. To dismiss someone because their ideas seem stupid in hindsight is no better than ridiculing someone just for having an idea that's different than your own.
      Just food for thought.

      @@Benson_aka_devils_advocate_88 Thank you for taking the trouble to reply, although I disagree with what you say. There were indeed references to the possible role of the carvings in relation to the surrounding landscape which should be acknowledged. However, the biggest failing of the video to me remains the misclassification of the marks as art. Although ultimately this is a subjective matter, it is impossible to claim that they are in anyway comparable in subtlety, complexity or any other dimension with the cave art in Lascaux, etc. Therefore to use the same term to categorise them is just silly.

      @@apaul9776 It very true that art is subjective. However, just because one thing is an intricate oil painting crafted by a late Renaissance master and the other is a paint by numbers, children's watercolor coloring book page that's been torn out and hung on the fridge, doesn't make one art and the other not art.
      Sure, what we just watched was a boulder in a field getting beat up by a couple Neanderthals. But how did we get the right to say that what those Neanderthals made didn't evoke a sense of pride and accomplishment. That it wasn't seen by the others as something to be looked at and admired. How do we know that the images of animals on a caves wall wasn't purely an instruction manual to teach the others what animals can be easily overcome, and to point to the exact spots that would ensure a fast kill. Which is important since they have yet to invent ambulances and hospitals. Under this theory, those magnificent and colorful images, something that through our eyes appears to be works of art they would look at for enjoyment, is nothing more than instructions us humans today toss out without having even looked through the pages.
      Playing devil's advocate on this one. On the one hand I see where you are coming and going with this. But on the other I know just how hard it can be to find meaning in ancient rock carvings. Where I live I can walk less than thirty minutes and be among what's left of some native American Indian ruins. I've stared at the concentric circles, vaguely humanoid figures and other seemingly geometric shapes for hours on end. I can't imagine someone taking so much time to carve them without putting some creativity into it. Without making it their own, just as religious scribes did during the middle ages. A purely utilitarian book, with strange motifs added by the authors for no other reason than, well, just because.

      @@apaul9776 but if the cave "art" is only magic to call animals, is it art? If it has a function is it art? If it is decorative is it art? Just because you don't recognise it doesn't mean it is not art. A lot of modern art is neither recognisable nor has any kind of meaning. A giant metal sphere is considered art. Random splashes of paint is considered art. One red stripe is considered art.

    The people of Ireland and Britannia were a sea people. The spiral of the conch and other shells lent an idea of a spiral carried by an animal as symbolic of humans in control of wildlife their home was symbolized by the spiral in a shell, but directed toward eternity. They carried their own future.
