1978 UFO Appears in Art Over Thousands of Years

1978 Photo From Iran
|
While interviewing German UFO researcher Michael Hesemann
on our Dreamland Christmas show December 22, Whitley was
looking through Michael?s extraordinary website and saw the
June 2001 ?UFO Photo of the Month,? an image of a ?hat-
shaped? craft taken in Iran in 1978.

Prehistoric Image

Since he had interviewed U.K. researcher Matthew Hurley the
week before, on December 15, about his remarkable
discoveries of UFO images in art, from prehistoric times
through the Renaissance, Whitley recognized the Iran image
as being a close match to 3 images on Hurley?s site, one of
them over 20,000 years old!

10th Century Tibet

The photo on Hesemann?s site was taken in Iran on May 13,
1978 by a 16 year-old student named Iamshid Saiadipour,
who took the photo through the window of his apartment as
it hung over his city. It was published in Tehran Magazine on
May 18, 1978 and ended up in the files of the U.S. Defense
Intelligence Agency. Michael discovered it in 1980, when the
files were released under the Freedom of Information Act.

14th Century Tapestry

The same page on Michael?s website contains a similar photo,
taken 5 months later, also in Iran, by another teenager,
Franklin Youri, who observed a luminous disc with reddish
portholes. The photo was published in 1981, after his family
moved to the U.S. to escape the Islamic Revolution. It was
analyzed by the Center for UFO Studies and looks identical to
the craft in the photo taken in May.

On the ?B.C.? section of Matthew Hurley?s website, you can
see the same ?hat-shaped? UFOs in a cave painting from
Tanzania that is estimated to be up to 29,000 years old.
Switch to the ?A.D.? section to see UFOs of the same shape
in an illustration from a 10th Century Tibetan translation of
the Sanskrit text ?Prajnaparamita Sutra,? which is in a
Japanese museum. Two objects that look like hats appear to
be floating in mid air and one of them seems to have port
holes on it.
UFOs are also in two tapestries created in the 14th century,
now located at the French basillica of Notre Dame in Beaune,
Burgandy, that depict the life of Mary. Hat-shaped objects
can be clearly seen in both tapestries.
