The bottom line is that these items on the map are actually holdover characteristics from medieval cartography. I am saying that these things (such as the northern mountain, Garden of Eden, etc) actually exist, and the reason why most people do not know this is because they have been hidden - eliminated from cartographic charts, modern literature, et cetera.
The fact that these items were included on some world maps of the 1500's and 1600's, but not so many afterwards is an indication that change was taking place in cartography during that time, and the change obviously involved controversy. Obviously, the hard core partisans of the older cartographywould be the most likely to consider the change as some sirt of conspiracy, and modern science which deadens peoples' minds would have us to accept unquestioningly the status quo without seriously and objectively putting the views of both sides to a test.
Australia WASNT on those maps though. They hold no relevance what so ever in this day and age, none.
I believe alien life exists, I've seen things in the sky i couldnt explain. The way they move is beyond our technology, the universe is billions of years old. Suppose that there is a planet that had something like Dinosaurs or something and no major extintion happened. That would mean that instead of life re-evolving for 65 million years it would have adavanced and advanced for the whole time.
Humanity got this far in 200,000 years so imagine something with 65 million years extra evolution time...
