These eerily similar petroglyphs from Japan, Utah, and Azerbaijan throw down the gauntlet on our understanding of ancient civilizations. Nestled in Fugoppe Cave in Japan, scattered throughout Nine Mile Canyon in Utah, and nestled in Gobustan, Azerbaijan, each carving features a winged or flying human figure, a startling sight that begs the question of how three culturally diverse groups, separated by oceans and eons, managed to conceive of such an idea. The timeline adds another layer of intrigue: The Japanese versions are about 7,000 years old, Utah’s range from about 1,000 to 2,000 years old, while Azerbaijan boasts carvings that may be as much as 10,000 years old. Are these mere coincidences, or do they hint at a deep shared mythology that transcends borders? Could it be that these ancient societies possessed a collective consciousness, tapping into a universal belief in winged beings? It’s hard to ignore the implications of such striking parallels: are we overlooking something monumental about humanity’s past?

Pyramid Complex of Khafre (c.2558-2532 BC), whom the ancient Greeks knew as Khefren, was a son of King Khufu (Cheops), the builder of the Great Pyramid. He built the second pyramid complex at Giza, and constructed his tomb on slightly higher ground, making it appear just as tall as his father’s. At 143.5 meters in height, however, his pyramid is only slightly shorter, and a tremendously impressive monument. Its core masonry is made of blocks of local limestone.
