COSTA RICA HISTORY

MAGICAL (?) MYSTERY BALLS

Does the thought of Costa Rica history make your skin tingle with excitement? Not so much?

How about Magical Mystery Balls Weighing 16 tons? Maybe from Atlantis?

Oh, come on. Let your imagination wander it bit. Remember, every Costa Rica vacation adventure begins in your imagination.

Disquis Rocks

That’s the fun. Keep reading to see about space-travelers, Atlantis, world-wide wireless communications thousands of years ago. It’s all here. And if you want to see the Lost City of Costa Rica click here!

Where to Find Them

When you travel Costa Rica, a good starting point is in the southern Pacific town of Palmar Sur.

Palmar Sur is often used as the launching point for Drake Bay, the Osa Peninsula, and Corcorvado National Park and, in addition to air charters, can be reached by road either from Dominical on the Coast or from the Panamerican Highway in the Center of the country. You'll find Palmar Sur at Costa Rica Map 1 here

They have also been found, and are still, at a wonderful little island, famous for its diving and fishing some 20 miles out into the Pacific, called Cano Island, click to visit it here

No one knows much about them, who made them, how they were made, why they were made, why such a variance in size, and unfortunately, many were destroyed (blown up sometimes looking for precious treasure hidden inside---there was none) or taken for ornaments but you can still see some mysterious Costa Rica history during your Costa Rica vacation. And, while you're in the area, visit La Amistad International Park a few miles inland, click

Theories, Theories, More Theories

Some researchers think they were used as markers in the jungle, street signs so to speak. Others postulate they were used in ancient catapaults. Still others believe that the stones served as a religious navigational aid to the afterlife for the deceased.

Not much fun, these, so I’m not going to bore you.

I think Costa Rica history needs to be fun. After all, this is a fun place.

So. . .here are some fun theories. And, I'm not making them up.

Ancient Astronomers

Now, here’s real Costa Rica history but what the heck is it?

In a galaxy far, far away. . . .

Only problem with this is that the constellations can’t be made out very well (actually almost not at all) with the naked eye.

The explanation?

These rock carvers had advanced telescopes, long since lost in time.

I don’t know.

Surely if they could build fancy telescopes you’d think they could’ve taken a picture.

Think of the time they’d have saved instead of taking months to carve this disquis rock.

Chariots of the Gods

This one makes some sense to me. After all, if you built pyramids in the hot, dry desert of Egypt or Stonehenge on the cold, dank moors of England, wouldn’t you be ready for a vacation in Costa Rica?

Can’t you just imagine the wife of some space-traveler-engineer in Egypt, tired of sand, asking: “Honey, what’s the weather like in Costa Rica?”

And, her husband saying: "Don't know, sweets. Let me place a ball-to-ball call to my brother in Costa Rica." Want to see what kind of weather the space travelers found? Click here

Atlantis and the Invention of Wireless Communication

And. . . . wireless was invented in Costa Rica so that ancients could communicate across the world. Think about it: Disquis balls were ancient power receivers, utility poles of the Gods, of the Atlanteans (yep, Atlantis).

Don’t ask me. Ask Douglas Yurchey: “The ancient monoliths, pyramids, stone circles and grand statues were not just art or architecture. They were the Utility Poles of the Gods. Wireless, power distribution is the key to understanding the pyramid civilizations. All we need is a stone, (crystalline) ground contact to tune in the power. Functioning like tuning forks, the stones vibrate or relay the EM world frequency. The Costa Rican Balls are all we need, in a cityless region, to expand the World Wireless; so that communications remain intact; so that ancient aircraft remain powered, etc.”

I told you this'd be fun.

From watching the Discovery Channel, you already knew that Atlantis was real and maybe just off the coast of Costa Rica.

Where were its communications headquarters? Southern Costa Rica where the Disquis rocks were all discovered. Look at this map and see for yourself.

You ask: “But why weren’t the balls located in Atlantis?”

Simple. Do you like communication towers in your backyard?

Neither did the Atlanteans.

Make Costa Rica History Fun. Afterall, It's Your Vacation

Facts. Nothing but facts. Too many facts.

Not in my history of Costa Rica.

Facts shouldn’t get in the way of imagination. But, of course, if you are one of those. . . hmmm. . . folks who prefer, say, The History Channel to Avatar, check out this brief Costa Rica history of Disquis Balls,click

So, come visit.

Use your imagination and create your own Costa Rica history (do you think the ancient beings that created these mysterious orbs were blue, ten feet tall, and communicated with their dearly departed by plugging their tail into the Tree of Souls?)
