Archaeological and historical research conducted in different parts of the world, have increasingly come up against strong evidence that many more thousands of years ago our ancestors mastered airspace and used aircraft heavier than air.

In 1929, was discovered map Turkish Admiral Piri Reis, dated specialists 1513, her surviving part was sufficient detail the West coast of Europe and Africa, the Caribbean, South America and Antarctica. That is, long before 1820, when Russian expedition headed by the Bellingshausen and Lazarev was opened southern mainland, ancient geographers knew about its existence! But the most surprising thing was that on the map Turkish Admiral (which he, in his words, copied from earlier sources of the times of Alexander the great) Antarctica is deprived of the ice shell, and some topographical details in her image could be considered only from the air! A similar phenomenon can meet when considering the figure of the Eternal city during the reign of the Emperor Nero (approximately 64 ad), where Rome is depicted from the height of bird flight.

In 1999, on the walls Aidossova Church, built in Ancient Egypt during the reign of the Pharaoh of SETI I, who ruled for more than 3000 years ago, were found images are quite recognizable aircraft, including a completely modern planes and helicopters. It was also discovered, and the wooden image, taken by archaeologists in the shape of a bird. However, the location of the wings and tail, attracted the attention of engineers, have suggested that the "bird" is actually made in compliance with the laws of aerodynamics by a model of the aircraft, similar to modern aircraft. Laboratory tests showed that this model is able to fly and what its parameters conform to all laws of construction of the buildings of the aircraft! In addition, found there the same "the texts of the pyramids" States: "Pharaoh travels through the air and flies over the earth... He has knowledge, allowing him to climb into the sky".

The Sun God Apollo was born in Hyperboreya

Unbelievable? Impossible? But the world folklore preserved a lot of images-symbols of aircraft: air chariot, flying ship, wooden eagle, the carpet-plane and others. However, on the wave UFO mania, heated ufologists, in most cases identified with the alien spaceships. Whether so it? But, it may be wise to go down from the stars to the ground and search for the ancient conquerors of the airspace in the North, where once was located the legendary land of Hyperborea.

A reasonable question: can it happen that the ancient inhabitants of the Arctic mastered the technique of Aeronautics? And why not? What our ancestors many centuries ago used something like balloons, no doubt. This is confirmed by the rock drawings near Onega lake where the aircraft ancient depicted in great abundance. There is a depiction of flying in a hot air balloon of giperboreya.

Memories of such flights over the years have undergone some changes and in a simplified form have survived in the form of folk images.

In the traditions of the Northern peoples technique flight was described very simply: have kindled the fire of chips, was covered with wet sacking, a bast Mat could sit everyone, and his fever was raised under the heavens to God himself. By the way, at the other end of the land to the natives Oceania there is such a myth about the journey to the heavenly country ancestors through the smoke of a jet: "Joliet sat on a stream of smoke rose into the lang" or "a woman walked into the smoke column and went with him to heaven..."

Perhaps it is this way of Aeronautics served as the prototype for the "flying ship", mention of which is not only in many fairy tales and myths of the peoples of the world, but in quite a documentary sources. As reported by Roman historians, 215 BC something "like ships" seen in the air over Rome. And in the British "the Chronicle Cerveza from Tilbury" it is reported that in Gravesend, Kent, in 1211, members of the local Church saw a floating celestial ship.

This design was also the prototype is not typical for the ancient graphic symbols cruise platform on which the Greek sun God Apollo, born, by the way, in Hyperboreya were flying to their homeland.

To Hyperborea has doubtless against the myth of Daedalus and Icarus. Daedalus was probably Hyperborean an engineer-architect. It is likely that he was captured during the pilgrimage to the temple of Apollo Hyperborean either he worked "for hire" for king Minos, and then was forcibly retained together with his apprentice (not his son!) Icarus. Erecting a hang-glider or, even more correctly, glider, starting with the device type catapult (wax and feathers they probably set for the blind, in order to keep the invention secret), they both escaped from prison, "the path of unprecedented holding to cold stars of Bears" (this refers to their route Virgil in the "Aeneid"). In other words, Dedalus with Icarus were heading North, to Hyperboreya - the home of labyrinths, the images of which are in many scattered throughout Northern Europe, including Russia.

Used the Hyperborean and more advanced aircraft.

Let us again turn to the ancient Greek mythology and remember the myth of the Argonauts and the episode, which describes the eagle, flying to torment of Prometheus:
Saw a bird they like it in height with a sharp cry
Over the ship raced to the clouds close in the evening.
Still sail boat rocked it, wings catching breath....

Amazing, right, this bird! Yes and external description of it more like a modern aircraft, rather than a living being:
After all, that eagle their views with air bird is not similar,
Wings like it smooth oars...

When the eagle disappeared on the coast, the Argonauts, probably, heard the roar of the turbines at its landing.
And then a short distance they heard the voice moaning
Prometheus, whose liver eagle pulled out...

Here it is also appropriate to recall the Russian epic Nightingale-robber, sitting on the "three oaks", and his famous "the Nightingale" hiss and roar:
And it does something to the whistling of Solovieva,
And it does something to pokrik animal,
Then all the grass, which ant-ate,
All lazurevy flowers slept during,
Dark Lisouski to the ground all bow...

Isn't that fits the description of a takeoff of a jet fighter? If the Nightingale Adamantiadis Hyperborean pilot, the aircraft which has made an emergency landing in the river at Currant"?

There is a considerable number of other references to aircraft, adopted in popular mythology, the images of the "plane wooden eagle" and fairy-tale giant birds.

In his Chronicles mentions like a giant bird that lives on the coast of the Sea of Darkness (Arctic ocean), and Arab traveler Abu Hamid al-Gharnati, who was in the upper Volga in the middle of XII century he giant could not see, but many have heard about it: "And for the vis, the Sea of Darkness, is the area known as Aura. In summer they can be very long. So, as they say merchants, the sun never sets for forty days, and in the winter night is just as long. Merchants say that a Sea of Darkness near them, and that people of Jura go to this Darkness and enter into it with torches. And find there's a huge tree... it is a big animal, say it's a bird..."

It is likely that there are (or were) and more specific technical description of aircraft than those contained in fairy tales and myths. And you can find them, paradoxical as it may seem at first glance, in the legends about Atlantis (it, according to some ancient authors, for example Apollodora is identical Hyperborea), which was kept in secret archives of the Rosicrucians, the Illuminati and the Freemasons. In the secret archives of the secret orders, surely there were authentic documents of the epoch of Atlantis-Hyperborea. These include, apparently, and maps of the epoch of Alexander the great, which was used in his journey, Columbus, Turkish Admiral Piri Reis and the father and the son Mercator, amounting own map of Hyperborea.

People in ancient times were flying. Why they went back down to the ground, losing wings? What was the basis of drawings of the great Leonardo? The sky always harbored a lot of mysteries was whether the mankind in the XX century again flied up to the clouds, to solve them?
