As usual, we are suggesting current ideas as an explanation of the past. But the "handbags" could represent many things. They could be a symbol for the family represented by the holder. Like a coat of arms. Also, it could be the holder of a communication device that the ruler uses to communicate with the gods. Not unlike the Ark of the Covenant but in a more compact form. Thinking outside the box is probably more useful here in determining the true use/nature of the "handbags".
The sumerian and assyrian "handbags" are actually buckets called referred to as "Banduddu". We know this because inscriptions on certain art work pieces directly referred to them as such. There are also Assyrian Dictionaries That have been salvaged that contain both sumerian and assyrian equivalents of the same words. If you don't believe me look it up. It takes five minutes. The world of antiquity youtube channel also features a video that directly discusses and identify the sources of this knowledge. Assyriologists have known this for ages.
It took me a very very very long time to find the supposed Māori handbag motif. I mean, it's wood carvings anyway so a lot don't exist anymore, but that's just a kete. A flax basket, an every day item for carrying items in. Not surprisingly, some of them also had handles to make carrying them even easier. Its almost like humans around the world decided that it was easier to make an item that could carry multiple other items in it. And then decided that making that item as easy to carry as possible was a good idea.
Very disappointed in your info about elongated skull's = showing but not mentioning how some of the skull are missing frontal cranial suture's = lying by omission , you're better than that .
Not a bag but a bucket that thoes would put the pollen sacks of the date palm that was used to pollinate the fields of Date Palm trees. The Tree of Life.
Given the history of catastrophic floods in places like China, it would be a surprise if many of these unrelated ancient cultures didn't have flood myths.
It's not a handbag lol ask an assyriologst.. they're called 'dalu ' and they're buckets of either metal or leather and they're used for carrying water.. you can see one in the British museum 😮
A bucket looks like a bucket almost everywhere you go. It's not about shared culture, it's just the most efficient shape for a bucket. Same for bags, a bag is easier to carry if you put a handle on it. It's just practicality. Now, we don't know the meanings of the bags but the meanings could be wildly different, so it doesn't mean they have a single culture giving it a universal meaning or that aliens had an affinity for Gucci. One bag might represent knowledge or be a shamans bag of tricks, while another might represent the packed lunch of the god's.
While everything you say is true, one must be equally cautious in attributing the obviously mundane when all context is absent. These artists went out of their ways to spend hours/days on detailing and preserving the fact that "these beings carried bag-like objects." It's difficult to attribute the mundane to carvings of winged beings, deities, and even kings, wearing elaborate armour and paraphernalia. Very few cultures (aside from our modern one) use decorative, HAND carried bags for daily use of containing our effects. Most use packs, shoulder and back bags, even sporrans or large hip pouches. The hand-bag is rather inconvenient, and is so much so that only the modern era brought about such a triviality... lending even more curiosity and skepticism about the nature of the carved images. Again, I agree with you. But it's difficult to assume that these were "merely" carrying devices, at a time when most such devices were more practical. A ceremonial version, perhaps?
There's no way ancient people could have come up with something as advanced as a handbag.Those are clearly giant padlocks which could be used to chain up your spaceships, time machines and dinosaurs so people wouldn't steal them.
The "handbags". Important to note that they are carried by VIP's or deities, usually male as well. So 1) How many VIP's do we see, especially male VIP's, carrying stuff? I mean, these people don't even have their personal mobiles in their pockets when "on duty" publicly - they're carried by an aide who answers calls for them, should the phone ring while the VIP is "on duty, publicly". Can you just imagine the personal mobile phone of say POTUS ringing during a press conference or other public event? Yes, they 'may' also have an official mobile that, once again, they don't personally carry. 2) What do women carry in their handbags that men don't carry - period? The main item is makeup of some kind. Men have pockets for their essentials while out - keys, wallet & phone being the main 3. These days most people who wear glasses only wear the one pair - bifocals & transition lenses.
I have always thought those “bags” that they carry were either water pails or something that they used to hold seeds in when planting crops…. In that time period,both water and seeds for the next crop would have been seen as ultra important….but I don’t know…I’m just taking an educated guess…
I am a jade carver here in new Zealand and im versed in our ancient mythology and carving techniques im seriously intrigued to were its displayed in our carvings knowing this i can unlock a giant amount of unanswered questions here from my understanding is there is a story not told and hidden im trying to line up ancient carvings with Maori carving because some how the time lines don't match at all
I think these ancient monuments were deliberately built so large and with such durable materials, so as to weather the ravages of time and the elements, and to be passed down to future generations.
Just like modern-day women who love to have their pictures taken while clutching their Birkin, Louis Vuitton or Chanel purses in order to flex & showcase their wealth or status, why would it be any different thousands of years ago? If i was a betting man, i'd say that's where our fascination with handbags came from 😂 Unfortunately for the ladies of today, those handbags that the gods were depicted holding are something they can't afford, no matter how much money they possess 😂
💀..Re; "Megalithic Monuments".., I, for one, am utterly nonplussed by "HOW"..??? ..(sighh..).., Without doubt, a very Significant piece of thee "story" is certainly.."missing"..
They held seeds for crops. The shamans (high priestess or priest) held onto the seeds to spread for distribution. So it has the connection for divine purposes as well. As you can imagine, these seeds were a huge deal in a world coming out of an apocalypse. So, now you know.
I agree. To me, it’s obvious the hand bags are representing possession or gifts (presents) from one entity to another. Wether it be gods to humans, royalty to common folk, or richer to poorer. What’s in the bag Could be monetary, materialistic, or knowledge, depending on context of course. Just someone giving, doing what they do. It’s such a broad object and every culture had to use something to carry objects in. Again, just my opinion but the same thing argument could be said about the “head wear” reflected in many cultures in different ways.

To the purse, handbag people... Most of ya'll have several "handbags". You carry almost nothing important in their, either. I prefer pockets. Hard to steal those... Also, my pockets come with my pants, so....
Maybe it's not a handbag..maybe it's some kind of "laptop"?...if so we haven't changed that much..technology is the new God and information the new currency ...
Here's a hypothesis about ancient structures: They're aligned with constellations and stars because.........that's when and where it was brightest at night and workers could build around-the-clock.
"Of Urizen’s four books, the Book of Brass is the most prominent. It contains his laws for organizing human society. It has been copied by Kings and Priests on earth (Eur 11:4). Urizen announces its purpose, which seeking for laws of peace and love would standardize everything under “one King, one God, one Law” (Ur 4:34-40). When he unclasps it, he infuriates the Eternals (Ur 4:44)." -S. Foster Damon, A Blake Dictionary
I’ve always wondered about the hand bags. It could be a depiction of a gift ? It’s just so odd for the depiction to be used worldwide, literally thousands of years (and miles) apart.
In my opinion & experience, the entire "rationale" for erasing B.C./A.D. is sophomoric, petulant, and needless. Addiotionally, the terms B.C.E./C.E. as substitutes for B.C. /A.D. are confusing. inaccurate, and clumsy. It is a fashionable yet misguided stunt which is grossly intolerant, deeply offensive and insulting, and ultimately pointless. All in all, It is a bit "Orwellian".
That bag is call a: KAMANDALAM in ancient Indian philosophy. It's what we'd call a kit bag or a hand bag, to carry foods for a voyage, be it areal or whatever.
If we are going with the theory that ancient civilizations were MUCH more technologically advanced then we are today... Could the handbag's have been a version of the Presidential "Football" ... Either literally a defensive Launch device? Or maybe more reasonably, A set of documents, and orders, that would launch war or defensive military might, at a moments notice? And showing the handbag in carvings, is a warning or show of power? It's VERY important to note that as civilization has advanced or us ... EVERY advance in ""information recording"" results in every newer method (of recording information) having the property of it being LESS DURABLE, and easier to erase and the information, so that it is permanently lost ... Rock carving is by far THE MOST DURABLE method of recording information, for the future to read. This advanced civilization maye have left million of documents on some kind of electronic format that has just disappeared with time .. and the rock carvings are all that we can read today.
Or (here me out) Louis Vutton traveled back in time and...COME ON! Really? People need to carry things, so they've always put a handle on bags. This has to be the stupidest "mystery" you've ever floated. Do better.
Handbag or basket. Baskets usually depicted the occupations of people of any civilizations. If fish basket, must be fishermen and the civilizations must be maritime culture. The basket in any relief we saw here mostly originated from agrarian culture.
It amuses me that people always try to find a reason for megalithic structures, why couldn't it just be because they wanted to show off to the neighbours?
Just put any child in a room with blocks (wood, plastic, or lego) and they all build something. Who would think our ancestors were bored and just wanted to build things that might align to the natural world around them. Humans will be Humans no matter where or when.
The handbags could be literal cause I agree with an earlier comment, they are useful( and probably had different cultural ideals why men are depicted with them also)..or they could be symbolic for meaning of power, higher-knowledge, upper civilization.. who knows this is amazing though I thank Graham Hancock for attracting me to this info
It's the basket containing the knowledge of War given to Whiro, the Brother of Tane Mahuta who aquired the 3 Baskets of great knowledge from Rehua in the 12th heaven. like the Veda's and Kaballah and others, Maori speak of the lore of love, wisdom and power. Tane recieved these gifts when he ascended the celestial tree of life...
The past will remain a mystery as The Who what & whys are trying to be answered by guessing. No one cn agree upon anything… ESPECIALLY to admit that ancients were smarter than us with all our high technology & can’t do what they did. 👵🏻👩🌾❣️
So... various cultures throughout history mysteriously ran into a situation wherein they needed to carry multiple small things... yep, must be aliens...
The handbags, in my opinion, are meant to symbolize a gift. It's more or less instructions for a global society that was traumatized or recently enslaved, and wanted peace. They engraved it, and everyone understood the symbol to mean "gift", only later was the cuneiform written over some of these depictions, muddling it's true meaning further. Think about it like this. If a civilization has no writing, but understands right from wrong, and truly desires peace. They may have the intelligence to "bring gifts" with them. As tokens of good faith, and the sharing of knowledge. They may have lost contact after some cataclysm. This means that they all used the same symbol, and many of these places are much older than we are told, dating to about the same age globally. You can call this "The Naive Humanity Theory." I would like to disregard contemporary dating, as I have always found their logic to be somewhat skewed to fit a certain narrative already established upon the sites finding. Here's my logic; Gobekli Teppe - Multiple handbags without a person holding them indicates that this was an origin point for these gifts. Meopotamia - Handbags are often depicted as being carried by someone. Possibly indicating that the gift being given was utilized by that individual. - When not depicted with someone, it was depicted over, and often behind them, with the individual paying no attention to it. Almost as if they denied the gift themselves but respected its influence. This speaks to me like a proud sub-culture of the region. Which probably fomented discontent with their neighbors, eventually culminating in thousand-year feuds with no end. Mezo-Americas - The gift is in the hands of those depicted to be embarking somewhere or leaving. Unintentionally, the altruistic actions of people to spread their culture, and what they knew, resulted in humanity's division. This type of irony would only be absolutely fitting for mankind. All our best intentions are always thwarted by the ones who misunderstand them the most. As for the often-anthropomorphized depictions. I believe humanity used to be so diverse, that we would be besides ourselves in regret with truly how many cultures we have annihilated, or how many cultures were lost in the floods. That Egypt is so much older than we are told, and it stands as the best preservation of this once ridiculously diverse spread of intelligent lifeforms.
How shocking that people might carry things in a bag of some sort (thus containing those things) with a handle (for ease-of-use). Clearly some sort of highly advanced alien technology. Only highly advanced aliens could have come up with such an amazing piece of technology. Come on! I use these for groceries for lord's sake. Thank goodness those ancient aliens imparted this amazing bit of tech to us so that I can carry my friggin groceries. If it weren't for these highly advanced aliens, I guess I'd starve to death for want of a way to carry my food!
My theory about the flood is that it happened but when there's like five cities and they're all on the coast it wouldn't need to be THAT insane to wipe out most of civilization and their domesticated animals. It was just exaggerated in the stories and there was no Noah but something similar by accident or they just made it up as a romantic explanation to how we rebounded. We would've just been getting to our feet when this happened so I don't expect to find first hand accounts, just memories from the people that really pulled it off like the Sumerians. You don't need to enter ancient astronaut territory to wonder about it being an actual event, cataclysms and catastrophies happen and people hyperbolize them, especially over generations. I'm not saying it wasn't a huge event but know-it-alls want it to be geologically obvious in 2024 or they're blindly denying it just because it's "biblical" which is just immature. You don't need to tell me it's stupid, some folks can think professor jackass.
The Aztec originally came from Aztlan but were driven out of their homeland and changed their name to Mexicas due to shame by their god Huitzilopochtli. It sounds crazy but what if, supposing Atlantis is real, Aztlan is another representation of Atlantis?

Thinking outside the box is probably more useful here in determining the true use/nature of the "handbags".
Or they could just be buckets.
@@kfreckmanNah, too small in proportion to the carrier.
The sumerian and assyrian "handbags" are actually buckets called referred to as "Banduddu". We know this because inscriptions on certain art work pieces directly referred to them as such. There are also Assyrian Dictionaries That have been salvaged that contain both sumerian and assyrian equivalents of the same words. If you don't believe me look it up. It takes five minutes. The world of antiquity youtube channel also features a video that directly discusses and identify the sources of this knowledge. Assyriologists have known this for ages.
The handbags contained seeds...
My thought too, broadcast sowing bags.
It took me a very very very long time to find the supposed Māori handbag motif. I mean, it's wood carvings anyway so a lot don't exist anymore, but that's just a kete. A flax basket, an every day item for carrying items in. Not surprisingly, some of them also had handles to make carrying them even easier.
Its almost like humans around the world decided that it was easier to make an item that could carry multiple other items in it. And then decided that making that item as easy to carry as possible was a good idea.
Very disappointed in your info about elongated skull's = showing but not mentioning how some of the skull are missing frontal cranial suture's = lying by omission , you're better than that .
We need more,love your videos
Not a bag but a bucket that thoes would put the pollen sacks of the date palm that was used to pollinate the fields of Date Palm trees. The Tree of Life.
They're all a specific design and size.
Those handbags are lunch boxes, everyone needs to eat and the leaders needed un poisoned food so all carried their home made lunch with them.
Given the history of catastrophic floods in places like China, it would be a surprise if many of these unrelated ancient cultures didn't have flood myths.
It's not a handbag lol ask an assyriologst.. they're called 'dalu ' and they're buckets of either metal or leather and they're used for carrying water.. you can see one in the British museum 😮
Google can't find any such entry.
The ancient handbags are just where the launch codes were kept.
A bucket looks like a bucket almost everywhere you go. It's not about shared culture, it's just the most efficient shape for a bucket. Same for bags, a bag is easier to carry if you put a handle on it. It's just practicality. Now, we don't know the meanings of the bags but the meanings could be wildly different, so it doesn't mean they have a single culture giving it a universal meaning or that aliens had an affinity for Gucci. One bag might represent knowledge or be a shamans bag of tricks, while another might represent the packed lunch of the god's.
While everything you say is true, one must be equally cautious in attributing the obviously mundane when all context is absent. These artists went out of their ways to spend hours/days on detailing and preserving the fact that "these beings carried bag-like objects." It's difficult to attribute the mundane to carvings of winged beings, deities, and even kings, wearing elaborate armour and paraphernalia. Very few cultures (aside from our modern one) use decorative, HAND carried bags for daily use of containing our effects. Most use packs, shoulder and back bags, even sporrans or large hip pouches. The hand-bag is rather inconvenient, and is so much so that only the modern era brought about such a triviality... lending even more curiosity and skepticism about the nature of the carved images.
Again, I agree with you. But it's difficult to assume that these were "merely" carrying devices, at a time when most such devices were more practical. A ceremonial version, perhaps?
Great job on this video.
What about Enki's (Adams) Calendar on the Southern Tip of Africa?
There's no way ancient people could have come up with something as advanced as a handbag.Those are clearly giant padlocks which could be used to chain up your spaceships, time machines and dinosaurs so people wouldn't steal them.
😂🤣😂🥲🫶
The "handbags". Important to note that they are carried by VIP's or deities, usually male as well.
So
1) How many VIP's do we see, especially male VIP's, carrying stuff? I mean, these people don't even have their personal mobiles in their pockets when "on duty" publicly - they're carried by an aide who answers calls for them, should the phone ring while the VIP is "on duty, publicly". Can you just imagine the personal mobile phone of say POTUS ringing during a press conference or other public event? Yes, they 'may' also have an official mobile that, once again, they don't personally carry.
2) What do women carry in their handbags that men don't carry - period? The main item is makeup of some kind. Men have pockets for their essentials while out - keys, wallet & phone being the main 3. These days most people who wear glasses only wear the one pair - bifocals & transition lenses.
I have always thought those “bags” that they carry were either water pails or something that they used to hold seeds in when planting crops….
In that time period,both water and seeds for the next crop would have been seen as ultra important….but I don’t know…I’m just taking an educated guess…
Which is a good guess
@@johngancarcik5682 thanks!
It's not a purse, it's a MAN BAG!
AWESOME video mate I would say the Handbag symbol could actually be a portable power pack or battery just a thought
Some of the Elongated Skulls (Peru) had about 50% more brain capacity. It is thought that elongated skulls were copying Ancient Aliens.
😑👌‼️😂
I dont read pictures and symbols, as they are not words.
I am a jade carver here in new Zealand and im versed in our ancient mythology and carving techniques im seriously intrigued to were its displayed in our carvings knowing this i can unlock a giant amount of unanswered questions here from my understanding is there is a story not told and hidden im trying to line up ancient carvings with Maori carving because some how the time lines don't match at all
Everyone in the world said others were there first...
Countless native genocides later...
The world is 6000 years old...
Older much older. Broaden your perspective and you shall find the truth you seek.
I think these ancient monuments were deliberately built so large and with such durable materials, so as to weather the ravages of time and the elements, and to be passed down to future generations.
Thats the idea.. lol
@@LiveFreeOrDie2A 👍🏼
Just like modern-day women who love to have their pictures taken while clutching their Birkin, Louis Vuitton or Chanel purses in order to flex & showcase their wealth or status, why would it be any different thousands of years ago? If i was a betting man, i'd say that's where our fascination with handbags came from 😂
Unfortunately for the ladies of today, those handbags that the gods were depicted holding are something they can't afford, no matter how much money they possess 😂
Great discussion. These are legitimately puzzling links that deserve continued examination. Thanks for putting this together.
Why? How is that going to help anything tomorrow?
@@CathodeRayNipplezwho hurt you?
@@GreasyMooseKnuckle69 Your Mom.
Maybe the handbags were the equivalent to a Gucci or Louis Vuitton bag of those days and the people wanted a carving with them showing it off?
Where is the site shown @5:42 located? I've never seen that one, I hope its not AI generated
People carried stuff in the past...in bags? Shocking.
💀..Re; "Megalithic Monuments".., I, for one, am utterly nonplussed by "HOW"..??? ..(sighh..).., Without doubt, a very Significant piece of thee "story" is certainly.."missing"..
They held seeds for crops. The shamans (high priestess or priest) held onto the seeds to spread for distribution. So it has the connection for divine purposes as well. As you can imagine, these seeds were a huge deal in a world coming out of an apocalypse.
So, now you know.
I agree. To me, it’s obvious the hand bags are representing possession or gifts (presents) from one entity to another. Wether it be gods to humans, royalty to common folk, or richer to poorer. What’s in the bag Could be monetary, materialistic, or knowledge, depending on context of course. Just someone giving, doing what they do. It’s such a broad object and every culture had to use something to carry objects in. Again, just my opinion but the same thing argument could be said about the “head wear” reflected in many cultures in different ways.

I was just watching a vid of guy showing petroglyphs in the South West US, there was one holding , what looked like, a handbag, the Samarian carvings instantly popped in my head.
Hand Bag....... WHAT About The Watch (??!!!! ) 0:22
Hand bags? Or buckets? Doesn't matter....we are too stupid to invent something like that....😂
Maori rock carving on the shores of Lake Taupo is about 20 years old. Maori never carved their kete f(lax bag)which held food which was 'noa' or common ..You guys live in Lala Land
I have carried a shoulder bag for decades and I'm a male. They hold so much stuff I can't put in my pockets. 1911A2, 4 15 round mags, flexi-cuffs, narcan, fox OC, flashlight, badge. Yes I am American.
To the purse, handbag people... Most of ya'll have several "handbags". You carry almost nothing important in their, either. I prefer pockets. Hard to steal those... Also, my pockets come with my pants, so....
Maybe it's not a handbag..maybe it's some kind of "laptop"?...if so we haven't changed that much..technology is the new God and information the new currency ...
Here's a hypothesis about ancient structures: They're aligned with constellations and stars because.........that's when and where it was brightest at night and workers could build around-the-clock.
0:10 Not a handbag. Small bucket (Banduddu) used to hold holy water for purification ceremonies. Contrast with an aspergillum.
Common with humans.
"Of Urizen’s four books, the Book of Brass is the most prominent. It contains his laws for organizing
human society. It has been copied by Kings and Priests on earth (Eur 11:4). Urizen announces its
purpose, which seeking for laws of peace and love would standardize everything under “one King,
one God, one Law” (Ur 4:34-40). When he unclasps it, he infuriates the Eternals (Ur 4:44)."
-S. Foster Damon, A Blake Dictionary
I’ve always wondered about the hand bags. It could be a depiction of a gift ? It’s just so odd for the depiction to be used worldwide, literally thousands of years (and miles) apart.
Basket containing the Fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. From Genesis in the Bible.
Please stop using "CE" &"BCE", its just silly.
With all due respect why do you think it's silly to use for our calendars "CE"& "BCE" out of curiosity?
In my opinion & experience, the entire "rationale" for erasing B.C./A.D. is sophomoric, petulant, and needless. Addiotionally, the terms B.C.E./C.E. as substitutes for B.C. /A.D. are confusing. inaccurate, and clumsy. It is a fashionable yet misguided stunt which is grossly intolerant, deeply offensive and insulting, and ultimately pointless. All in all, It is a bit "Orwellian".
That bag is call a: KAMANDALAM in ancient Indian philosophy. It's what we'd call a kit bag or a hand bag, to carry foods for a voyage, be it areal or whatever.
If we are going with the theory that ancient civilizations were MUCH more technologically advanced then we are today... Could the handbag's have been a version of the Presidential "Football" ...
Either literally a defensive Launch device? Or maybe more reasonably, A set of documents, and orders, that would launch war or defensive military might, at a moments notice? And showing the handbag in carvings, is a warning or show of power?
It's VERY important to note that as civilization has advanced or us ... EVERY advance in ""information recording"" results in every newer method (of recording information) having the property of it being LESS DURABLE, and easier to erase and the information, so that it is permanently lost ... Rock carving is by far THE MOST DURABLE method of recording information, for the future to read.
This advanced civilization maye have left million of documents on some kind of electronic format that has just disappeared with time .. and the rock carvings are all that we can read today.
Or (here me out) Louis Vutton traveled back in time and...COME ON! Really? People need to carry things, so they've always put a handle on bags. This has to be the stupidest "mystery" you've ever floated. Do better.
Handbag or basket.
Baskets usually depicted the occupations of people of any civilizations. If fish basket, must be fishermen and the civilizations must be maritime culture.
The basket in any relief we saw here mostly originated from agrarian culture.
The "handbags" are battery jump starters, to restart ancient electrical machinery after the global EMP event. Obviously.
It amuses me that people always try to find a reason for megalithic structures, why couldn't it just be because they wanted to show off to the neighbours?
Yeah! Screw the Joneses!!!
Just put any child in a room with blocks (wood, plastic, or lego) and they all build something. Who would think our ancestors were bored and just wanted to build things that might align to the natural world around them. Humans will be Humans no matter where or when.
I don't think they're handbags. I think they are some kind of power source.
The handbags could be literal cause I agree with an earlier comment, they are useful( and probably had different cultural ideals why men are depicted with them also)..or they could be symbolic for meaning of power, higher-knowledge, upper civilization.. who knows this is amazing though I thank Graham Hancock for attracting me to this info
It's the basket containing the knowledge of War given to Whiro, the Brother of Tane Mahuta who aquired the 3 Baskets of great knowledge from Rehua in the 12th heaven.
like the Veda's and Kaballah and others, Maori speak of the lore of love, wisdom and power.
Tane recieved these gifts when he ascended the celestial tree of life...
I'm sorry, are we really confused about ancient people having ... things ... and they needed to carry them?
The maori carving was done by contemporary modern artist😂 you may wanna check your facts😅 1.50 in late 1970s or 80s from memory
The past will remain a mystery as The Who what & whys are trying to be answered by guessing. No one cn agree upon anything… ESPECIALLY to admit that ancients were smarter than us with all our high technology & can’t do what they did.
👵🏻👩🌾❣️
So... various cultures throughout history mysteriously ran into a situation wherein they needed to carry multiple small things... yep, must be aliens...
The handbags, in my opinion, are meant to symbolize a gift.
It's more or less instructions for a global society that was traumatized or recently enslaved, and wanted peace.
They engraved it, and everyone understood the symbol to mean "gift", only later was the cuneiform written over some of these depictions, muddling it's true meaning further.
Think about it like this. If a civilization has no writing, but understands right from wrong, and truly desires peace. They may have the intelligence to "bring gifts" with them.
As tokens of good faith, and the sharing of knowledge. They may have lost contact after some cataclysm. This means that they all used the same symbol, and many of these places are much older than we are told, dating to about the same age globally. You can call this "The Naive Humanity Theory."
I would like to disregard contemporary dating, as I have always found their logic to be somewhat skewed to fit a certain narrative already established upon the sites finding.
Here's my logic;
Gobekli Teppe - Multiple handbags without a person holding them indicates that this was an origin point for these gifts.
Meopotamia - Handbags are often depicted as being carried by someone. Possibly indicating that the gift being given was utilized by that individual.
- When not depicted with someone, it was depicted over, and often behind them, with the individual paying no attention to it. Almost as if they denied the gift themselves but respected its influence. This speaks to me like a proud sub-culture of the region. Which probably fomented discontent with their neighbors, eventually culminating in thousand-year feuds with no end.
Mezo-Americas - The gift is in the hands of those depicted to be embarking somewhere or leaving.
Unintentionally, the altruistic actions of people to spread their culture, and what they knew, resulted in humanity's division.
This type of irony would only be absolutely fitting for mankind. All our best intentions are always thwarted by the ones who misunderstand them the most.
As for the often-anthropomorphized depictions. I believe humanity used to be so diverse, that we would be besides ourselves in regret with truly how many cultures we have annihilated, or how many cultures were lost in the floods. That Egypt is so much older than we are told, and it stands as the best preservation of this once ridiculously diverse spread of intelligent lifeforms.
I don't see a "handbag" in the motif - I've always seen a bucket or water carrier, which would make far more sense.
How shocking that people might carry things in a bag of some sort (thus containing those things) with a handle (for ease-of-use). Clearly some sort of highly advanced alien technology. Only highly advanced aliens could have come up with such an amazing piece of technology. Come on! I use these for groceries for lord's sake. Thank goodness those ancient aliens imparted this amazing bit of tech to us so that I can carry my friggin groceries. If it weren't for these highly advanced aliens, I guess I'd starve to death for want of a way to carry my food!
Hand bags ... fascinating...and it gives some. The power to take half a guys stuff
My theory about the flood is that it happened but when there's like five cities and they're all on the coast it wouldn't need to be THAT insane to wipe out most of civilization and their domesticated animals. It was just exaggerated in the stories and there was no Noah but something similar by accident or they just made it up as a romantic explanation to how we rebounded. We would've just been getting to our feet when this happened so I don't expect to find first hand accounts, just memories from the people that really pulled it off like the Sumerians. You don't need to enter ancient astronaut territory to wonder about it being an actual event, cataclysms and catastrophies happen and people hyperbolize them, especially over generations. I'm not saying it wasn't a huge event but know-it-alls want it to be geologically obvious in 2024 or they're blindly denying it just because it's "biblical" which is just immature. You don't need to tell me it's stupid, some folks can think professor jackass.
Ooh mg really. You dont think they had hand bags way back when. Just where do you think wamen put all them gold coins her husband had to work for
.
The Aztec originally came from Aztlan but were driven out of their homeland and changed their name to Mexicas due to shame by their god Huitzilopochtli. It sounds crazy but what if, supposing Atlantis is real, Aztlan is another representation of Atlantis?
Not a handbag. It’s used for carrying water. One of the most important things throughout the day was getting water.
Lol all these people “it’s just a hand bag” are pretty short minded. The prominence of a cultures god’s and royalty having them is the significance and the deliberate inclusion of them in permanence in temples and sacred sites. Cause literally no one 1000’s of years from now are going to care about what bag is this weeks KUWTK.
