Cappadocia is hollow earth<\/a>: twenty underground levels arranged on square kilometers. Miles of tunnels, acres of rooms and stairs.\u00a0\u00a0When? Why?<\/span>\u00a0Who could have dug this huge underground country, and for what purpose?\u00a0Where do these cities come from, all connected together by tunnels, providing comfort,<\/a> like water pipes, toilets, light shafts?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6000 years ago?<\/h4>\n

Turkey, Cappadocia, near Nevsehir, around -4000: “The first inhabitants of Anatolia, the Hittites, have dug houses in the soft rock of the cliffs in order to protect from the elements and to take refuge there in case of attack. Later, in the seventh century, the inhabitants have built entirely underground cities<\/a> to escape the invasions of Persians and Arabs. There would be a hundred cave-dwelling villages in the rocky peaks of Cappadocia.\u00a0You can only visit the underground cities of Nevsehir, \u00d6zhonak, Mazi, Kaymakli or Derinkuyu.\u00a0The underground city of Kaymakli is the most visited in this region. It stretches over several miles and\u00a0has eight levels.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n

The people could live independently for several months without betraying their presence. Nearby, the underground city of Derinkuyu is the largest one: it could accommodate more than 30,000 people on no fewer than 18 levels<\/a>. Only the first eight have been explored.”<\/em> (source)<\/a>Brochure Cappadocia, Ministry of Tourism of Turkey, Ankara, 1998<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

…Or 100’000 years?<\/h4>\n

There is good reason for this: the lower levels are flooded with sediment that make them virtually impassable. By themselves, these alluvial deposits show that the cities are prior to the W\u00fcrm thaw<\/a>, obvious cause of the great flood<\/a> as evidenced by so many myths<\/a> around the world.<\/p>\n

The great city of Derinkuyu is certainly “the most interesting among the underground cities. It had a\u00a060 yards deep<\/a>\u00a0well\u00a0<\/em>for the water supply, essential during a lasting siege. A tunnel about seven miles long connected Derinkuyu to Kaymakli.”<\/em> (source)<\/a>Brochure Cappadocia, Ministry of Tourism of Turkey, Ankara, 1998<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

How did these mysterious troglodytic people live? Pretty good indeed. The underground cities, built or rather dug over several levels, included stables, warehouses, cellars, dormitories, churches<\/a> and common rooms. Hallways and stairs allowed people to move from a dwelling to another. There was a ventilation system with large fireplaces and a system of inlet and draining of water!\u00a0<\/p>\n

This great control over water as evidenced by the apparent profusion of underground pipes make the cities of Cappodocia resemble the other hydraulic civilizations, which are the oldest known. Let’s quote that of the Indus Valley<\/a> in India, that of Tiahuanaco<\/a> in the Andes, that of Teotihuacan<\/a> in Mesoamerica<\/a>: they are all hydraulic civilizations.\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mole Humans<\/h4>\n

Considering all the underground cities of Cappadocia, a total population of two hundred thousand inhabitants would have lived in. It was a\u00a0buried country , all cities were connected. A major archaeological discovery<\/a> has still to be done: the complete exploration and the statement of this vast underground network. Cappadocia would be a real Swiss cheese.<\/p>\n

The official version claims that these underground cities were dug by the Hittites from -4000. But why would they have dug all those mountains, without an urgent reason?\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0“To protect from the elements”<\/em>\u00a0is the official answer. What elements? In -4000,\u00a0the ice age<\/a>\u00a0of W\u00fcrm was finished ages ago. Even worse: from -9000, the thaw has caused countless floods.\u00a0<\/p>\n

These floods are completely incompatible with an underground habitat: the inhabitants would have been drowned for sure.\u00a0The rest of the official version, much less realistic, says that troglodytic works and underground levels have been enlarged and extended by the Christians, forced to live hidden to protect from the Islamic upsurge of 642.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Perplexity<\/h4>\n

It is true that we find murals with Christian motifs, but never in depth: the Christian paintings are located on the upper levels, well visible above the surface, which hardly shows a desire to hide.<\/p>\n

Archaeologist and essayist Andrew Collins expresses a perplexity that we all share:<\/p>\n

“Something is not right,<\/em>\u00a0notes Andrew Collins.\u00a0The normal reaction of a community fearful of being crushed by an armed invader would be to reach safer areas, what made many Christians who established in Eastern Europe, especially in Greece. It was crazy to dig a hole in the ground and hide there in the hope that the persecutors would eventually leave.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Especially since, as we said, instead of burying themselves deep like moles, Christians have only occupied the surface levels.<\/p>\n

Ignorance is not the lack of knowledge, but the lack of self knowledge ; without self knowledge there is no intelligence.<\/p>
