The flying tripods
Mysteries of the Yellow Emperor - The flying tripods
(From the Mysteries of the Yellow Emperor Huang-ti (27th century B.C.), who, it is said, lived in those misty reaches of time before the Shang dynasty, China)

The "Sons of Heaven" it was Huang-ti who had left the "largest footprint" in the Chinese mythology. He first made his appearance in the Huang He River basin.
Huang-ti was very different from other ancient heroes. He did not enlighten people, did not demand worship. Huang-ti and his helpers were amazingly rational beings. Of course, they did teach the natives all kinds of useful sciences, including the acupuncture. However, most important for them were their own affairs. And such affairs were dominated by the creation of complex, and alas, incomprehensible (at least, to us) apparatuses and contrivances
Numerous sources relate that Huang-ti manufactured and used some "miraculous tripods." The "tripods" were not used for water, nor was there any fire to heat and prepare food in them. The purpose of such a "tripod" was quite different: it was a "likeness of the Great Infinite," Tao, the concealed engine of the Universe. A "tripod" was approximately 3-4 meters in height, but its volume relatively small: 100 liters. The legs carried most of its weight. A curious human observer would not be able to glance inside the "tripod," but sources did say that "hundreds of spirits filled its insides." The legends of ancient China said that the "tripods" depicted "dragons, flying in the clouds"; it was the same "dragon" who eventually arrived and carried off Huang-ti and his colleagues. Most likely the "tripods" were used for distant communications, because their location were chosen in such a way that the star Syuan Yuan would be pointed at. It is from that star that Huang-ti arrived on Earth. We know this star as Regulus, of the Leo constellation.

This Attic vase was painted by the "painter of Berlin" (who got his name after an amphora in Berlin that ranks among his major works), circa 490 B.C., its height is 58 cm.
The Greek god Apollo is seated on a winged tripod , riding over the sea (hyperpontios), which is denoted by fish and an octopus. Two dolphins leaping over the waves accompany him. Apollo plays the lyre.

The reader can see very easy the similarity of the tripod's myth and the tripod's image coming from different ancient civilizations. Is this a mythological representation of heroes and gods a ancient's human fantasy , need or is it originate from a secret knowledge unknown to us? Do you think Aliens came to Earth at Ancient times?
