Author, lecturer, and guide, John Anthony West delivered a seismic shock to archaeology in the early 1990's when he and Boston University geologist Robert Schoch revealed that the Great Sphinx of Giza, Egypt, showed evidence of rainfall erosion. Such erosion could only mean that the Sphinx was carved during or before the rains that marked the transition of northern Africa from the last Ice Age to the present interglacial epoch, a transition that occurred in the millennia from 10,000 to 5000 BC.

hey john thank you for the add, i would really like one day to go to egypt with a good camera and a lot of film, i may be getting laid off from my job soon and thinkin about selling all my crap and traveling, tell me what you think would be the best place to start, egypt or the mayan ruins?
Hi, John! Sorry I haven't visited or written to you in a while. I hope you're well and making progress in your endeavors. Please take care and be well...
John, I have both of Laird's books. When you have an opportunity, please take a look at my DVD trailers: "Full Circle - the return of the Underground” We’re (you & I) linked on face book, so you can view them there. As far as an Egyptian tour, I'll start working on a group immediately. Take care, JAW. Blackstone
Thankyou kindly for the response. Yes, Reign of Quantity I think is one of the most important works written about our situation, hardly an unexpected shame that it isn't more widely known. Forgive me if I haven't dug enough to find an answer but is it true you are authoring a new solo book?
John, you still have the energy of a rookie Archaeologist. I tell everybody that you’re a Symbolist and explorer. You need to send me a fee for promoting you (smile). Anyway, soon I have a group put together so that we can make the trip with you. Actually, I was thinking about suggesting to Jacque Fresco, that he help me build an “Earth Station” in Mali near Tabi which is not too far from Hombori. I’d like to make that trip with you one day. My Lady’s parents returned recently from a trip to both Lebanon and Giza. I still have yet to set foot in Africa this time in Body. I can testify that I’ve been to Africa in spirit. Anyway, I’ll check out the link. You take care JAW and save some discoveries for your “Friend” in Montreal. Blackstone
Our life is an apprenticeship to the truth that around every circle another can be drawn; that there is no end in nature, but every end is a beginning, and under every deep a lower deep opens.
