Ancient Civilisations

Edmund Marriage

An Illustrated Presentation with Colour Slides

Edmund, founder of the Golden Age Project, is returning - by popular demand - to expand on Christian and Barbara Joy O'Brien's ground breaking research and translation of ancient documents from The Megalithic Odyssey, The Genius of the Few and The Shining Ones. The Lady Ninkharsag, Earth Mother, Serpent (Wise) Lady and Goddess of Irrigation, led the technological skills, which produced the wide range of domesticated crops and animals at Kharsag (Sumerian head enclosure or Eden) in Southern Lebanon. Our ancestor gods were benevolent, technically advanced, people, who re-started agriculture and civilisation c. 9,000 BC, following global catastrophe, featuring highest levels of mass extinctions for 3.5 million years.

Edmund takes us through the Sumerian texts, which describe the practical down to earth problems faced by the en-ge-li (Lords of the Cultivation or Angels). Drawing on wide scholarship and science, the progress of agriculture is traced from this source around the world, demonstrating the extraordinary skills and knowledge deployed in making the most of the world's natural resources, in harmony with nature, together with the superb social organisation of the city state role society. Respect for this high culture survived around the world, but the serpent knowledge, dissipated over time and distance from its source, was finally diminished by religions selectively drawing on earlier culture, superstition, and desire for human controls and land.

The old order was renamed and denigrated into myth as genies, hags, fairies, elves, sprites, gnomes, goblins, serpents, snakes. and dragons. Deviants were labelled as magicians, pagans, witches and heretics. However, such misrepresenting or misunderstanding of the past could not endure. At last we now face the great opportunity of re-discovering the benevolent source from whence we came. This includes the essential freewill and equality of men and women, with good laws, administered under a good monarch, free from dogma and corruption. As we peel back the layers of history, Jesus the Nazarene and his British Druidic relations stand out, with their pursuit of knowledge, superb universities, and belief in the immortality of the soul. His attempt to restore good Government in Palestine through the Serpent or Messianic kingship, originally lowered from heaven (ha'shemim = planted highlands), provides the fascinating link into the importance and value of the early British Christian Church, and the world of Caractacus, Arius, George of Lydda, Constantine and Pelagius.
